One man will cross over the lines from
state where the license system of deal
ing with liquor prevails to one where its
manufacture and sale is prohibited by
law, and upon his return report plenty of
holes ln-the-wall, and exultantly declare
that prohibition does not prohibit. An
other one, like an esteemed citizens Of
our own place who is now in Dakota,
cannot wait till he reaches home but
writes to his family in glowing terms of
the beautiful working of the prohlbitory
law SO recently enacted and put into
force there. We have been kindly
permitted to make the following extract
one such letter;

day on this question. I talk prohibition
all the time and am going to vote 1t and
work for it always. 1t is bound to win

make note of that last sentance. "Da-

WHY Katie Left the Ship.

QUEENSTOWN, October 2l.-Among
the passengers who sailed from Liver
pool by the steamship Servia, yeSter-
day. was Miss Kate Walsh, a pretty
telegraph operator from Birmingham.
She was bound for America. A young
man named Feely had been very atten-
tive to her for long time, and was
quite diSconsolate when she left for
Liverpool to embark. After the ship
had sailed he made up his mind that he
could not live without her, and he re-
solved to stop her. So he took the mail
train and went to TIolyhead and thence
TO Queenstown.
Here he boarded the Cunarder when
she arrived to-day and hunted among
the passengers till he found the pretty
telegraph operator, whom he begged to
90 ashore and marry him.
After much persuasion Miss Walsh
consented, but she said to her once
bashful lover, "Ah, you should have
asked me before; you were almost too
late"
SO they left the ship amid the con-
gratulatiOnS of the passengers.
