Pleased Old Soldiers.

LOST SPRINGS, Aug. l2.-Presiding
Elder Baker Of the U. B. church,
from Abilene, gave us two excellent
sermons Sunday, the one in the
morning being exceptionally good.
His subject was the love of Christ,
and to illustrate he spoke Of the love
Of country which he had very vividly
brought to his mind by a visit to the
battlefield Of Gettysburg. He told OF
the loss Of life, and how the soldiers
dubbed their muskets across the
stone fence, all for country. He
spoke Of Round Top, and the wheat
field, etc. After the discourse an old
soldier who was present told the
elder that be did not overdraw the
picture; he knew, for he was there
and it was all that the elder had said
it was, and more.

Believing your readers desire to
keep informed correctly! about one of
the most interesting and certainly one
Of the most striking" women of the
twentieth century Mrs. Carrie Nation
Il trust you will grant inc space for
further contributions about her and
related questions. Some of the news
papers have given reports about her
and about women in Non.P Prohibitory
States smashing saloons In imitation
or her, which were purely flake" af-
fairs and designed to prejudice the
public against her and to bring upon
her general public condemnation, and
the story in your valuable paper on
the 9Th instant, wherein she is re.
ported to have threatened legislator
that she would ''hack' him or "kilP
him IL he lent bis influence for resub-
mission of the Probibitory law in
Kansas, is, no doubt Of this same
fake" class. She may have said and
done indiscreet things. indeed it
would be strange were It, otherwise,
for she is human. She has en-
countered three mobs, has been stoned,
egged, horsewhipped and beaten with
a broom and has a black eye and
bruised shoulders. What man among
us could endure all this and keep
sweet as she does?
Alonzo e. Wilson, . newspaper cor
respondent, who recently interviewed
her says: "She is good Christian wo.
man, intelligent, and refined, though
terribly In earnest. She is not coarse
nor mannish nor wild-eyed and is, in
appearance, very unlike the pictures
printed in the various metropolitan
papers. Mrs. Nation is a motherly
soul with great big heart almost
breaking over the deadly work of the
liquor traffic. She ia a veteran W. G.
T. U. worker and has an honorable
record in that organization. She looks
like Mrs. Clara Hoffman and was born
in Missouri sixty-hye years. ago. She
is mother and grandmother and is
every inch a true-hearted. woman"

TO THE PUBLIC.

I The weekly issue of the" "FREIE
PREssE FUER TEXAS" has po-
sitiveiy the largest circulation
of all German papers published
IN the State of Texas.
1t has over 400 established
agencies in the State, is mailed
to fully 700 post-offices, and has
an extended circulation in Mexi-
co, in the Indian Territory, and
in Oklahoma.
1t circulates from Galveston
to Denison, from Marshall to Ell
Paso and of course mainly in
the thickly populated central
and southwestern parts of the
state.
Three travelling men and our
very active local agents are con
tinuously adding new sub
scribers to the lists.
In consideration of these facts
the "FREIE PREssE FUER TEXAS"
claims to be the best adver-
tising medium in the State of
Texas, where it is the object to
reach the German reading po-
pulation.
