WILL 90 WITH THE FIFTH.
Funston Has the 20th in Shape for
Sailing.


SAN FRANCISCO, July lit is now
assured that the Twentieth Kansas
will 90 to Manila with the fifth expe-
dition. The issuance Of complete
equipment to the regiment, including
uniforms adapted to the torrid zone,
was finished yesterday. General
King visited Camp Merritt last night
and said to Colonel Funston:
"How soon can you have your reg
iment ready to EMBARK"
"Within twenty four hours, )"
promptly replied Colonel Funston.
E. c. Little is slowly improving
but cannot recover In time to make
the trip to Manila. The fifth expedi.
tion will sail about the Goth.
The San Francisco Call, which made
fun of the Kansas regiment on its ar
rival, has attacked Ed Little in q Bit
ter article alleging that he has not
made good officer. While Mr.. Lit
tie never claimed to have had aFmy
training, he was as well qualified As
the other civilian officers from Ka1 y
ard this attack will doubtless cause
considerable feeling in camp.

WHEAT NEARLY ALL CUT.
Dickinson Has Her Big Crop in Shock
or Stack

The wheat harvest of Dickinson
county is nearly over. In a large
part of the county the farmers yes
terday had their first Sunday rest in
three weeks. In other sections the
machines were running, finishing up
the fields. The south part Of the
county had but little Of the rain that
visited Abilene last week and the
fields stood in the pleasant weather
without much injury from falling. 1t
has been very slow and wearisome
harvest in many respects throughout
the county owing to the varying
weather and the heavy growth Of
straw.
Conservative estimates made by
men conversant with the conditions
are that the county will average
about II! bushels per acre on its
$1,000 acres of wheat or a total of
about 800. 900 bushels for which the
farmers will get at least one million
dollars in cash.

WE'LL DRILLED COMPANY L.
A Member Of the Company Writes Of
the Situation.

To the Reflector,
CAMP MERRITT, San Francisco, July
81 notice in a Solomon paper a
criticism that our regiment is not
sent to Manila because the soldiers
are not well drilled enough to make a
good showing. think we are as
we'll drilled as any have seen and
we get the praise Of the California
people for our soldierly manner.
GEO. W. PFREHM,
Company l..
Mr.. Pfrehm is doubtless right as to
Company l.. as it is fortunate enough
to have in Captain Watson q thor
oughly trained army officer in charge.
As to the regimental officers in some
instances, they having never been in
army life, there has doubtless been
much to learn. The boys Of Company
L. are to be congratulated on their
citizenship and it is hoped that the
regiment will soon be allowed to go
to the front. They richly deserve it
and have been kept too long in the
camp.

STILL PAYING TAXES.
Telegraph and Express Stamps Are
Yet in Order.

The telegraph and express COM
panies Of town are still requiring
patrons to pay the stamp tax on tele-
grams and express packages. The
local agents Of the companies in.
formed the REFLECTOR today that
they had received no orders otherwise,
although the following ruling by N.
B. Scott, United States commissioner
Of internal revenue, indicates that
there is change in prospect;
Each bill Of ladlng made out by
any common carrier for transporta-
tion Of goods for the United States
under the eighth paragraph Of sched-
ule A Of the act Of June IS, 1898, re.
quires the l-cent stamp, as does also
each duplicate thereof. Notwith.
standing the rule adopted by such
common carrier, 1t is the duty such
common carrier to aillx the stamp to
such bill Of lading and duplicate.
This means that the express COM
panies and telegraph companies must
place the stamps on packages and tel
egrams themselves. There is no
doubt that they come under the head
OF common carriers"

The Fargo, N. d., Daily Argus has
the following notice Of a former Abi-
leneite's singing, under the heading,
"a Charming Voice."
The services in Gethsemane Episco-
pal church last Sunday morning were
specially solemn and edifying. The
rendition Of Schubert's very difficult
offertory piece by Mrs. Stambaugh
added much to the service. This
lady is gifted with most charming
soprano voice which has been finely
cultivated. Her solo was a great
success.
Mr.. Stambaugh delivered the ora
tion at Fargo's big Fourth OF July
celebration and the Argus praises ii
highly, calling it "a most excellent
address"

Why is the English pound called a

The explanation is as follows; Among
the early minters OF coin in Northern
Europe were the dwelers of Eastern

their calling that numbers OF them
were invited to England to manufac-

WHERE IT WILL LEAD.
The Worlds Trouble and the Spanish.
American War.

We commenced this war. 1t is on
a new idea and by new nation. All
people feel nervous and uncertain
about it. Foreign newspapers are
already admitting that this Spanish.
American war has changed the poll
cies and the politics Of all the nations
Of earth. There is a reason for this
unusual change, but unspiritual peo.
pie know not what it Is at work.
They know not the fact that the Bible
talks about a certain period Of 2,52O
years and that at the end Of the period
general and tremendous change is
to occur with all nations. The 1920
year period was to commence at q
certain time when Nebuchadnezzsr.
was king Of Babylon, and, by running
back in history, we find that this king
was in command 6O6 B. c.; therefore
it is easy to see when the 1920 years
will be out Its expiration Is SO near
that the ball is already rolling and
the Israel family are the leaders and
1t will involve them in white. heated
trouoAe teentosllyrsol az described
in Jeremiah 30. But when | talk
about the Israel family | do not mean
Jews. God always calls the Jews
Judah or House Of Judah, while we
(the Ten Tribes are Israel or House
of Israel. We never were Jews.
This is the one great point overlooked
by Bible readers and scarcely anyone
knows how this is and, therefore,
they cannot unravel the Bible proph-
ecies and get our future destiny. We,
Anglo.Saxons, are the Israel, while
the Jews are Judah. This will make
you understand Jeremiah 80 and
many other chapters where the future
is laid out for Israel and Judah,
which means Anglo-Saxons and the
Jews. All other nations are denom-
mated Gentiles, Latins and heather,
and they will all combine against us
after while, and this is why the
prophecy says it will be the time Of
Jacobs trouble and all faces will turn
pale and scared as it will be a des-
perate struggle-the great war dance
Of earth and 1t is already started but
it will have periods Of rest and peace
while they let loose to get better
hold. BE not deceived. 1t is already
commenced and will switch from one
thing to another the next 80 years
and end in furious trouble. The
1920 year period is almost out, and
therefore, we know just where we are
in the great drama. 1t is not difficult
to get at all this in an accurate way
but people know nothing about this
1920 year period and the network
woven around it, and, therefore, they
are in utter darkness.
