five miles from the nearest town. Mr..

testify to their value in household where

Society Women Bound to Hades.

DECATUR, Ala, October 25.-MrS
Carrie Nation lecured here this afternoon.
Among other things, she said:
"Peruna is nothing but rot gut. and
Schlitz's malt is all beer.
"a dive in Kansas is different from an
Alabama saloon"
She gave her experience in smashing
saloons and said the reason she did so
was because she could get out of Jail but
drunkards could not get out Of hell. The
devils liars say prohibition will not pro-
hibit.
II will give any man $5 who will tell
me the difference between the democratic
and republican parties. You cannot be
temperate in getting drunk or getting
others drunk. You cannot be temperate
in lying and stealing. am for temper
ance, am for prohibition. / am only a
plain woman; all society women go di-
rectly to hell. My hatchet has caused
people to think"
She advised the Decatur women to smash
the saloons and told them if they did not
the saloons would smash them. She said:
The only place for the saloons is in
hell with the devil The anti-saloon
league and the dispensaries are only side
shows to the political parties"
About three hundred listened to her.
She did not smash any saloons here
