THE w. c. T. u.
Report of Fourteenth Annual Convention,
Second District Womens Christian
Temperance Union, held in the
first Baptist Church of OF.
tawa, Sep. 9th and 9TH.

The church was beautifully decor
ated for the occasion. There was a
fair attendance from the beginning.
Kansas City, Baldwin, Olathe, Rose
dale, Lecompton, Lawrence, Wells
Vile, Princeton, Garnett and lola I'M
ions were represented. On account
of serious Illness the president, Mrs.
Fannie Holsinger was not present,
and the convention was in charge of
Mrs. l.. Il. smith of Ottawa The re-
ports from counties showed growth
in members and interest. The music
was excellent, and splendid spirit
of harmony prevailed. First evening
session Rev. Adkins led the devotion
al exercises, words of greeting were
given by Rev. Nos baum, response by
Mrs. j. c, Reed, of Garrett, both of
which were much appreciated as
shown by applause. The address of
the evening by Rev. Rankins, was
fine. Be told us the temperance for
ces had gone into camp, but am sure
those who heard him are ready now,
to break camp and begin active SER
vice. Wednesday morning reports of
departments continued, these showed
an advance along many lines, and
were replete with good things. The
final report of credential committee
showed thirty delegates present,
eight counties represented. Election
of officers resulted as follows: Presi-
dent; Mrs. j. G. Reed, of Garnett;
Secretary; Mrs. G. s. Freork, Wells
vile, Treas, Mrs. j. Stickel. Baldwin
The addresses of the evening were
given by Mrs. s. G. Zehner, subject,
"Chained Lions" and Mrs. j. M.
Kemp on Citizenship, both were
specially interesting. A very pleas
ing part of the evening program was
several numbers of songs and recIta
lions by Mr.. and Mrs. Dick Weaver
and their son, Leo. of Olathe. We
beg to add just little from the Reso-
lutions Committee. Resolved, that
we realize our dependence on AL
mighty God, and that in proportion
as we return to the faith and courage
of crusade days, we shall be pros
pered as Union and accomplish the
work He has given US to do.
That we strive to be more diligent
in attending the w. q. Il. u. meetings
and to be faithful in wearing the white
ribbon.
That we pledge ourselves to have
all our Numbers subscribe for Our
Messenger, or do so for them. Special
thanks for the use of the beautiful
church to speakers and singers, and
those who opened their homes for our
! entertainment.
MRS l.. g. HAWKINS,
Allen Co., w. @. Il. u. Delegate.

stopped Youngs and expostulated
with him, but he raved in fury. He
quickly broke away and catching up
a corn knife, continued the chase af-
ter the decrepit old man, who in spite
of his years, managed to elude his
son-in-law. Again the women inter
fered and put stop to such outrag-
eous proceedings. Youngs had work.
cd himself into towering passion
and while they pleaded with him,
vlclously sharpened the corn knife
on a grind stone. He had time for
reflection during the process ofgrind-
ing and doubtless realized the beast
illness OF his conduct. He told the
women. however, to remove the old
man OFF the place, or he, Youngs,
would chop him into pieces. The
women hsrnessed up the team and
brought the old gentleman to lola
and swore out q complaint against
Youngs, whose preliminary hearing
was SCI for the 23rd in Justice Wheat
on's court.

Mustered Out.
John Reimert has Answered Here" to the
final Roll. Call and Passed over TO the
Eternal Camping Grounds.

The progress of the fatal illness Of
John Relmert has been noted from
time to time in these columns. The
end came at one a. IN. Wednesday
John Reimert was born at Lingles-
ton, Pa, September 5, 1S4l. He was
given such schooling as the place
afforded and the condition of the
family would permit, and was early
spprenticed to the plssterer's trade.
When the war broke out he enlisted
In Company +, 100 Pennsylvania
Volunteers, q regiment which after
wards became famous under the name
of the "Bucktails," and which saw
much hard service. John Reimert
was corporal in this regiment, and
to the last day of his life he was
prouder, as he had a right to be, of
that service than of anything else.
AT Gettysburg he was wounded in
the head, the bullet lodging behind
the skull in such way that 1t could
not be extracted. He never fully re-
covered from the wound and it is
probable that his death at this time
is largely due thereto.
Mr.. Reimert was mustered out of
the service of his country June 2sth,
1865, and on November 18th, of that
year, was married to Sarah +. Waltz.
Nine children we're born to this union,
all girls and all living except one.
Two are married, Mrs. Samuel Brown,
of lola, and Mrs. Anna Christian, of
Shelbina, Ia. In addition to the
widow and children, four brothers,
Hezekiah, of lola, Oliver, Hiram and
William, of Pennsylvania, survive
him.
John Reimert was bluff, hearty.
outspoken man who always had a
CHEEKY word for everybody and who
was very generally liked. He was a
hard worker and was regarded as one
of the best plasterers in the town.
He was a patriot to the last drop OF
his blood, and regarded the four
years he spent in the army as the
best years of his life. He was an en-
thusiastic mem Der of McCook Post,
g. A. r., and it was eminently fitting
that his old comrades should have
charge of the solemn ceremonies with
which his body was laid to its last
rest. The services took place yes.

DEBATE IN THE SENATE.
Two Different Factions Fighting
HARD.

WASHINGTON, d. C., April g.
A debate which occurred In the execu.
tive session Of the Senate late Tues
day afternoon would indicate that no
matter what the character Of the rcso-
luton 10 come from the Committee on
Foreign Relations the resolution would
cause a serious and perhaps prolonged
discussion II emphasized the fact
that there are two elements in the Sen
ate-one for independence with inter.
yention, another for Intervention alone,
and these two factions will fight Wig
orously for their ideas.
The relations Of the United States
with Spain was the uppermost topic IN
the executive session, and constituted
the subject OF many conferences
among Snators.
The activity was due to the an
nouncement tina. the Presidents mes
sage would recommend the adoption Of
q policy looking to lntrventlcn in Cuba
on the part Of the executive branch Of
the Government rather than the rec
0gnitlon Of independence aud TO an ef
fort to make smooth the way for the
reception of such a reprt. The execu.
tive session was devoted to a general
discussion Of the policy to be pursued
toward Spain, and developed the fact
that much opposition would be made
to the acceptance Of a policy in line
with the Presidents desires. The ques
ton was raised by Senator Allen. who
mad a long speech, predicting mucl
dissatisfaction in the country at large
with a policy on the part of the exec
utye that did not so to the extent Of
giving the Cubans their entire indie
pendence of the mother country.
