SALVATION ARMY ON WHEELS.
Stan Captain Cox Proposes to Have a
Bicycle Brigade.


Staff Captain Blanche. Cox, who is in COM
mand Of the Salvation Army for the division
Of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and the
District of Columbia, is organizing a cavalry
brigade, with which she will, little later,
travel through the section of country under
her jurisdiction, and endeavor to gain as
many recruits as possible for the Salvation
Army.
Staff Captain Cox is an expert bicyclist
and she today told Star reporter that If it
were possible or practicable to find among
the list Of officers here eight or ten who
could ride bicycle, as well as herself, she
would mount her brigade on bicycles and
thus travel through the country In view
however, of existing conditions, she will pur-
chase one or more pairs of horses and a
Wagonette, and the members of the brigade
Will travel In that manner. There will be
but one man in the party, and he VIII be
taken along to attend to the manual work
that it will be necessary to have DONE
The campaign will last for two months,
and during that time every portion of the
states named and the District will be visited
Capt. Cox said she last year Travelled
through Colorado in the same way, and with
about the same number OF officers as she
intends to take on her proposed trip this
year. The Colorado campaign lasted Two
months, and was, she said, a great success
The largest halls obtanable were filed every
time service was held, and IT was frequent
ly the case that persons drove 30 or 80 miles
to be present. The 300 convictS in the state
penitentiary at Canyon City, Col, united in
petition to Captain Cox and her associates
to visit the institution and hold a meeting
there, and the request was compiled with,
to the great satisfaction of all concerned.
Captain Cox has secured Washington
Grove for the purpose of holding a camp
meeting during the summer, and she is also
endeaVoring to make arrangements to get a
large tent, in which she proposes TO hold
meetings at various summer resorts.

FALSE PRoPHETs.

that the repeal cf the Sherman

was repealed, a panic ensued
which has grown worse day by

The same false prophets are
now saying that the silver agi-
tation is unsetling business and
that a terrible panic will result
II the free coinage Of silver is
restored.
The people are not all fools.
They have had experience un.
der free coinage and the single
gold standard and know under
which system they prospered
most.
They know that until '73 sue
cess crowned their every effort
and that prosperity was univer

"The best financial system in
the world works like a charm
for the stock gambler, but the
masses do not appear to be in it.
This gold that is being imported
will never circulate among the
people. 1t is bought aud sold as
