"JOBLESS MEN" ARE FINDING WORK IN THE WHEAT FIELDS THROUGH THE FEDERAL EMPLOYMENT BUREAU. THE SUPPLY AND DEMAND IS ABOUT SAME. (By A. N. P.) Kansas City, Mo., July 7.—Mobilization of the labor army which moves northward from Texas to Dakota every near, cutting the wheat as it ripens, is beginning here. Through the free employment agency maintained by the Federal Department of Agriculture, working in co-operation with the state free employment bureaus, thousands of men are sent every year to the localities where they are needed most and warned away from the places where there already is abundant labor. The demand began in earnest about June 15 and to date, supply and demand have been about normal here and have offset each other fairly well. From Fort Worth, Texas and Little Rock, Ark., where the Federal Employment Bureau maintains temporary "field offices" have come reports of about 2,000 surplus men. These men are now being directed to Oklahoma, where the wheat harvest is under way. Hutchinson, Kansas has asked for eight hundred men and Wichita wants about 1,500. Mrs. Zora Ewing, who resides on Twelfth street, will leave the city Monday for a visit to her mother and father in Kentucky. Her parents are very ill at this time.

Do you know that nine out of every ten cases of rheumatism are simply rheumatism of the muscles or chronic rheumatism, neither of which require any internal treatment? The pain may be relieved by applying Chamberlain's Liniment, which makes sleep and rest possible, and that certainly means a great deal to any one afflicted with rheumatism. Recommends Chamberlain's Tablets. "Chamberlain's Tablets have been used by my husband and myself off and on for the past five years. When my husband goes away from home he always takes a bottle of them along with him. Whenever I have that heavy feeling after eating, or feel dull and played out, I take one or two of Chamberlain's Tablets and they fix me up fine," writes Mrs. Newton Vreeland, Mino, N. Y. Take these tablets when troubled with constipation or indigestion and they will do you good. That Was the Reason. "The paper states that you pleased a big audience at the banquet last night."

En route from New York Mr. Fields will visit Mr. Edward Mosely in Washington, D. C., and his aunt C. J. Lee in Chicago. Rev.

Blagburn, 1827 Jefferson street, objects strenuously to being named co-respondent in a divorce suit filed in District court several weeks ago. Wednesday Blagburn filed a petition of intervention in the case of Ada Wilson against Arthur Wilson, claiming that Wilson tried to get him in a compromising position with Mrs. Wilson so that the circumstances would aid Wilson in resisting the plaintiff's case and defeating her right to the custody of a minor child. In the answer filed by Wilson, Blagburn is named as co-respondent. In his petition of intervention, Blagaburn desires to clear his name of any improper relations with Mrs. Wilson. Mesdames Julia Mickel Trussel, Smothers, Corine Lightbody of the Harriet Beecher Stowe school located in Kansas City, Kansas, were among the colored school teachers who attended the National Educational meet here last week. Members and friends of D. Y. There is a rather unique church organization at Sixteenth and Filmore streets—The Holly Church, commonly known as the "Holly-Jumpers" or "Holly Rollers." Recently a Bystander representative while in that neighborhood was attracted by the unusual noise that can be heard for some three or four blocks while they are carrying on their services, entered their domicile of worship and there saw the strangest sight. The congregation composed of both white and colored worshippers—little and big all, shouting, singing, preaching, jumping at the same time. One going there for curiosity sake will be dumbfounded at the sincerity with which they carry on their services. It teems with life. Recruits at frequent interval amid the preaching spring up from their pews and recite with tremendous fervency their religious status while like a storm the others are yelling and shouting amen, etc. It makes one think of the mineral pictures that we form of the African's way of serving the Lord in the jungles—then all of a sudden we think of the day of pentecost and find ourselves semi-dumbfounded. The services last Sunday were conducted by chiefs of that faith from Omaha. BAPTIZING AT BROOK'S LAKE — SERMON AT KYLE'S A. M. E. CHURCH Brook's lake will be a scene of a big event on Sunday afternoon. There will be candidates from Kyle's A. M. E. Zion and Bethel A. M. E. churches. At 3:00 P. M. Rev. W. H. Wheeler will preach the baptismal sermon after which the congregation will proceed to the lake. Cars will leave Sixteenth and Walker streets at 2:00. Kyle's chapel is located at East Eighteenth and Scott streets. Brook's lake is located on East Twenty-fourth and Court avenue. A good crowd is expected. Will you come? ST.
