Capt. McDonald's Experience During tho
Red River Freshet.
Correspondence Of the Gazette, 49,.
QuANAH, HARDEMAN COUNTY. Tex June
13.-Capt w. J. Mcdonald returned We'd.
nesday evening from the upper Panhandle
where he has been waterbound several days.
He relates quite an experience he had in
crossing Red river on a raft. A party con-
sisting of himself, o. o. Winter, superin-
tendent Of the Fort Worth and Denver, Mr.
Young, the bridge boss, Dave Campbell of
Albany and T. NJ. Williams, a travelling man
from Dallas, constructed raft out of
bridge timbers to cross to this side of the
river. The current proved too swift and
the raft too heavy to manage and they
were carried down stream at the rate of
thirty miles an hour, they being helpless to
check its course. and it being pitch dark
were afraid to attempt to swim ashore.
After being carried about fifteen miles,
they abandoned it and managed to get
ashore in safety on the same side they
started from, and were compelled to walk
back the entire distance. The captain says
he has been in a number of close places, but
that is the worst experience he ever had.

New YORK, June 15.-The bond market
was dull and generally strong, particularly
in early dealings. Changes in prices, how
ever, were within narrow limits. The stock
market was stronger in the morning owing
TO the better feeling about the money situa-
ton and the crop outlook and to expecta-
ton of purchases to follow July dividend
disbursements.
Chicago gas was the weak feature. Re-
alizing sales caused a decline in the after
noon. but final prices were generally above
Saturdays.

An Interesting sermon by Rev. c. S.
Trump Sunday Night -


The services in ST. Johns Lutheran
Church the past few weeks have beer
exceptionally interesting. Large con-
gregations were assembled to hear
the pastor, Rev. G. S. Trump, address
special sermons to the young people of
his church. Last Sunday evening his
subject was, "The Model Young Wo-
man. His ideal 1--WE were pleased to
hear was easily produced, as theworld
was fGn of them, beautifully and nohly
supporting and adjoining the social
structure. The model young woman,
he said, was a scomanly woman
proud of her sex, sincere and frank, no
mask ON her face, no deception in her
makeup. She loves and cultivates
the beautiful May be beautiful her.
self, but generally not so, " Beauty as
YAM The model young woman's
ideal is not in beautiful form, nor
display of second hand clothes borrowed
from the silk-worm or ostrich, but ia
dustrioas, initiating Rebecca, Rachael
and lamar. She is independent, yet
cares for everybody. Is generous has
tears for the suffering and kindness for
the needy.
She has pure heart, despising the
vile Jest or an expression containing
a double meaning. Her purity is her
armament. Perhaps the young men
who were addressed the Sabbath even
ing previous on the Strength Of
Young Men, felt uncomfortable to
hear it said, that woman was Gods
Improvement on man" " the most use
ful and beautiful object of earth, y
Goods masterpiece" ETC., yet the fortu-
nate fellow who weds her will have a
wife who believes God has given her
the best and noblest man on earth.
Next Sabbath Rev. Mr.. Trump will
by request, preach to the cadets of
Temperance.

on the authority of Sheriff Miller, had
admitted several men into the jail. for

thought he would look in and see how
matters We're at the jail, before retir-
ing AS he opened the door, he saw a
group of men gathered about the
