BEFORE AND AFTERbTAKING.

In speaking of the "White Crook"
performance, the Texarkana Calls
criticism looks something like the
pictures in the almanacs, before
and after taking, Here is the Calls
two etchings:
BEFORE.
The above production drew a fair
sized crowd at the opera house last
night. The company is quite a
large one and embraces many ar
lists in the cast. Burlesques on
many prominent tads of the pres
ent time were introduced and were
quite ludicrous, The costumes of
the entire company were beautiful
and the parading of the marchers
and singing created favorable opin-
ion from those present. The music
al specialties were good and seemed
to please the audience, Call.
AFTER,
The "White Crook" did not cre-
ate a favorable impression upon
theatre-goers, almost the entire
plot being a conglomeration Of spe-
clalty work Those who attended
expected to witness gorgeous seen
cry and dazzling display of char
acter representations, hence their
disappointment, Call.
We learn from those in attend
ance, that the company was an in
ferior one, and did not give the ex-
pected satisfaction, Well, we can't
always be pleased, and to console
those who were in attendance we
will say that we must mix our
Sweets with the bitter" of this
life, that we may better enjoy
good thing when we are treated to
it.

Miss Frances f. willard.

Few women are in less need of an intro.
duction to the people Of any part Of the
United States than Frances E. Willard, the
temperance worker. For nearly a quarter
of q century she has been an active worker,
and for most Of the time prominent leader
in the cause of Prohibition. To her more
than to any other person Is credited the
powerful organization known as the
Womans Christian Temperance Union.
which has grown up since 1874 and now
has branch in nearly every town OF any
considerable size in the United States, and
has extended itself over large part Of the
world. It is said that In the early days Of
the Union Miss Willard visited and spoke
in every town in the United States having a
population OF more than ten thousand, and
for ten years averaged one public meeting q
day.
She was born in the village of Church.
Vile near Rochester, N. Y, In September,
1889, but since 1858 has lived In Evanston.
ILL.,, a pretty suburb Of Chicago. Before
she devoted her life to reform movements
she was president Of the Woman's College
at Evanston, and afterward its dean when
1t became part Of the Northwestern Uni
versity. Her writings attracted the atten-
tion Of Lady Henry Somerset, who wrote:
"My first visit to America was as much to
see and know Miss Willard as for any 9TH
or purpose and to understand from her the
principle upon which she had worked the
marvellous organization Of which she has
long been president"
In 1892 Miss Willard visited England by
invitation Of Lady Henry Somerset and re-
ceived in Exeter Hall an enthusiastic well
come from the united philauthropic socie-
ties Of Great Britain. Upon her return she
was greeted warmly by immense crowds Of
her friends in all the large cities OF har
native country-New York Tribune.

Lives Shall Endure Through Eternity.

What would you say IL, when pointed to q
worn link in chain, the workman showed
you how strong some Of the others are, and
proposed to let it pass? Or suppose the
engineer of some great viaduct were shown
q loose rivet or fractured girder, and he
should reply by pointing out how strong the
piers are. and pleading that II does not look
bad bridge on the whole. Only, no
engineer would reply 80. No the fact that
the rest of the structure is 80 good. Is
reason for not giving 1t up as worthless, but
not reason for being satisfied with It as II
Is, even for one day. II 1t be left az 1t ts all
the strong points go for nothing; the flaw,
the weakness, gives the valuation OF it and,
if left in it, will by and by bring it> down.
Deal with your life which is immortal at
least as faithfully as with these lifeless
things which are only meant to last
few short years. What are these things
after all? What Is the most wondrous ma
chine, with all its most delicate movements,
compared to human life? What is earth's
costliest structure compared to a good name,
stainless conscience, true heart! What
is the highest trust that man can set you to
defend compared with that invisible fortress
of the soul? A little while and those finely
wrought structures, so closely watched that
each flaw may be repaired, shall be only
masses of rusting metal and the strong forts
that true men hold to the death
shall be only grass-grown mounds,
memorials of the overriding past. But
these lives which God has given US to keep
and use shall endure through eternity 8
countless years, and bear into the immeas-
ureable future the mark OF how We live and
act today.-Brooke Hsrford, D. D., In Ser

Mvsteriss Of the Persi.n Gulf.

Sir Henry Nance recently, in his
inaugural address as President of the
Institution of Electrical Engineers,
speaking of development of oceanic
telegraphy, said in the Persian Gulf
one occasionally witnessed natural
phenomena which to the untraveled
might appear incredible. In the midst
Of the mountains near Mussendom he
had seen during the thunderstorm such
displays of lightning as bafled descrip.
ton. He had, at certain seasons OF
the year, observed the water in bay
which was large enough to hold all the
fleets of the world-present exactly the
appearance of blood. Not many miles
from Mussendom he had witnessed
mysterious fire circles fitting over the
surface of the sea at a speed of 100
miles an hour-a phenomenon which
no one had yet been able to explain.
While stesming along the coast of Belo-
chistan, he had been called from his
cabin at night to observe the more COM
mon phenomenon of the milky sea, the
water for miles around being singularly
white and luminous. In the same To-
cality the sea was, for short periods, as
if putrid, the fish being destroyed in
myriads, so that to prevent pestil-
ence measures had to be taken to bury
those cast up on the beach. This phe-
nomenon was doubtless due to the out
break of submarine volcano and the
Liberation of sulphureted hydrogen. In
these waters jellyfsh were as large as
footballs, and sea snakes of brilliant
hue were met with in great numbers.
On one occasion a swarm of sea snakes
forced their way up one of the creeks
in Karachi Harbor, apparently for the
purpose of having battle royal, for
the ground between high and low
water mark was thickly covered with
their bodies in positions betokening a
deadly struggle.

A Morher'S PRAYER,

Blessed Lord, thou are infinite in love and
tenderness and dost comfort US even as a
mother comforteth. Thou dost long and wait
with patience day by day for the unfolding
of thine own nature within us. Thou dost
rejoice in every sign Of victory over the
lower and ever up-reaching toward the
higher. And 30 thou art by our side con-
tinually, our divine inspirer and never fall
ing friend. We pray thou wilt make this
love OF thine more real to US. Help
US who are mothers to realize that we
are the children OF a king and that
thou dost include in thy dear family the
children's children, that the yearning OF our
hearts for them is but the echo OF thine
own, and that nothing which touches their
welfare is unnotlced by thy watchful eye.
We rejoice, o Lord, that thine ear Is always
open to our prayers for our dear children.
o bless them this new day! They have not
passed this way heretofore. We commend
them in faith to thee. May they be respon'
sive to thy leading in right and pure ways.
And when the evening shades gather about
US and the curtains of night are drawn,
may We all with unsoiled feet come around
the family altar with songs OF praise and
thanksgiving to thee, our Father, who hast
blessed US with all spiritual blessings In
Christ Jesus. in whose name We pray.
Amen.

Az Victims of a Disease.

1t Is proposed, by an Austrian measure,
to treat all persons addicted to the drink.
ing habit as victims Of disease, instead OF
as wilful criminals. Every person convicted
of drunkenness will, therefore, instead OF
being sentenced to prison as a common
criminal, be confined In some asylum. much
as the insane nov are In the United
States. Here he will remain for term oi
months or years, as may be deemed neces.
sary to complete his cure. He will be un.
der the charge Of competent men and sub.
ject to sufficiently rigid rules to retain him
in custody and prevent his escape; and be
will only be released upon examination oi
a medical board, which shall pronounce
him cured Of the alcoholic habit.

Relation of Alcohol and Crime

As gathered from the Belgian prison OF
Louvain during the twenty-one years from
1874 to 1895. In this time there were re-
ceived 1926 criminals. OF this number 1874
per cent. were proved to be drunk when
they committed the crime: of those under
life-sentence, 40.7 per cent. were drunk; Of
those condemned to die, 43.1 per cent. But
of the total number received 1t was shown
that AT per cent. were habitual drunkards;
OF those under life-sentence, SAG per cent,
were habitual drunkards; and OF those con-
demned to die, sixty per cent. were habi.
tual drunkards. Thus, pari passu, as al.
cohol degrades the physical, mental, and
moral condition Of him who drinks it, it
leads him to commit graver and graver
crimes. Temporary drunkenness may In.
cite to crimes, but chronic alcoholism much
more 80. And thus with the enormity OF
the crime, as rule, is there an increase Of
the drunken degradation which leads to 1t.

HUGE ROCK OF MYSTERY.
Connecticut's Great Bowlder, Largest Il
the United States.

Connecticut's Great Bowlder, Largest in
the United States.
The Connecticut Legislature has
been considering the purchase of the
State of Cochegan Rock, located mid
way between New London and Nor.
wich, and said by many persons to be
the largest bowlder in the United
States. 1t is eighty feet long, seventy
eight feet high, contains about 10000
cubic feet of stone, and is estimated
to weigh 10000 tons. 1t is unques-
tionably relic of the glacial period,
and was deposited in its present rest.
ing place very many centuries ago.
Connecticut, says the New York
Herald, has long been famous stamp
ing ground for the geologist and
paleontologist. Almost everybody who
is at all familiar with ancient birds
and beasts remembers what is known
to science as the Connecticut sand
stone footprints, footprints of birds so
gigantic that it appalls one to think
what they must have been like. Espec-
tally around Montville are there many
mute evidences of the glacial period,
the stone of Cochegan being the most
notable.
This stone has been studied by the
most famous geologists of the United
States, but none of them has ever been
able to state with accuracy just what
variety it is. The strangest featureis
that in appearance and in grain it is
totally unlike any other stone found in
Connecticut or New England, this lack
Of resemblance extending to other and
smaller powders, which were also evi-
IDENTIFY deposited on Connecticut soil
by glaciers.
Indian tradition says this stone was
for centuries used as a council block
by the red men of Connecticut. The
first white man to own the land upon
