Dr J S Dill of Bowling Green alearned theologian and a very entertaining and forcible speaker has beenconducting a series of meetings at theBaptist church during the past weekMinisters of other denominations areattending and are cooperating in theImeeting Large congregations arepresent at the evening services and theafternoon meetings are well attendedshowing that the people of Columbiaare very much interested Not a wordderogatory to the teachings of other de-
nominations has been saidjust thesimple story of Christ is being told butin a most scholarly and captivatingmanner Dr Dills descriptive powersare great and at times he grows dramatic thrilling the audience Thereare but few stronger pulpit orators allpoints being clearly presented Hissermon especially to men last Sundayshowing the character of men thiscountry needs and the lines he markedout for those who stood for the right tofollow was indeed a very helpful dis-
course and doubtless put many in thecongregation to thinking At the closeof this service nearly all the men inthe congregation and there were manypresent went forward and shook theministerss hand The meeting hasdone good and we believe much morewill be accomplished Services eachafternoon and evening throughout thisweek People living out of town shouldmake an effort to attend the services
Mr Presley Clark who conducts thesinging has a very melodious voicekeeps the choir in perfect time andthe music rendered has been very inspiring Mr Clark as we understandhas decided to make sacred music a lifework and those who are hearing himfeel sure that he is very competent forthe laudable calling The sentiment ofhis solos is beautiful rendered in themost perfect manner He enters upona promising future in his line of work

iAeroplanes in Flight
The people of Kentucky at last areto have an opportunity to see aeroplanes in flight with real bird mensoaring high in air and executing diffi ¬
cult arid interesting evolutions with noother sustaining power than the planesand mctorsI
The Louisville Times has announcedthat a great aviation meet is to be heldin Louisville on June 1819 at Churchhill Downs under the auspices of thatpaper at which some of the worldsmost noted aviators will be seen withtheir wonderful aircraft Most promi¬
nent among these will be Glenn H Curtiss whose daring achievments bothhere and abroad have stamped him as apeerless bird man Such others asCharles F Willard Charles K Hamil¬
ton Horace F Wild Bud Mars andC K Bates will also be in the contestsfor the supremacy of the air
The comparatively recent advance¬
ment in the science of aviation has beensuch as to startle the entire world andthe daily accounts of broken recordsshow that there are still great possi ¬
bilities for unheard of adventures bythe sky pilots That records maybe broken at the Louisville meet is ex¬
tremely likely from thef act that expertshave declared the Churchhill Downscourse an ideal place for such meetsand again for the reason that unusuallyfortunate dates have been securedWrather reports for years past showthat the wind velocity for the last halfof June is the slowest of any time inthe year of Kentucky and ofcoursethis is conducive to the easy handlingof the great machines-
It is expected that low rates will besecured on all railroads leading intoLouisville for these two days and it isexpected that recordbreaking crowdswill flock to the historic race coursewhere heretofore the Kentucky thor ¬
oughbred has held undisputed sway
