Do You Do Either?

We are confident that progress
sive euchre, parlor dancing and
card playing in general, are detii-
mental to the highest development
of Christian character, and there
fore should not be tolerated by
mothers and fathers. We believe
it the duty of ministers and edit
ors to use their influence in trying
to eradicate all social evils from
the church OF Christ.
We believe that the whisky bus
mess is one Of, if not, the deadlest
foe of the church, hence we believe
it our duty to wage a relentless
warfare against this monster evil
and to lend our influence in every
way possible to its final des'ruc-

President Roosevelt carries a
"gun Gov. Van SAINT found IL
on him. In spite of the provision
FIR his protection afforded in the
b1dyp uard of secret service men
constantly attending him wherever
he goes and the police preparations
for his personal sa ETY.. every time
he appears in public the President
evidently believes in being armed
himself as the best of all precau-
tious, and he carries his weapon
right where it will be handy in case
the need of it should arise.
1t became Known today that
when the President visited the Cap
itol while he was in ST. Paul recent
ly he was taken first into the Exec
utiye Chamber. where he and Gov.
Van SAINT were eyed of their
ovelcoats Ivy David Heasley, the
Governors colored messenger. The
party then proceeded to the House
of Representatives for the exer-
cises there.
Later when all were about to
start for he drive the Governor
hal p. ned to run his hand into the
pocked of The overcoat in which lie
iiad been assisted, and, in much
surprise, he called out:
Hello, Dave, this is not my coat.
This one has. big gun in the
pocket of it."
Then the President, standing
close at hand, chuckled softly, and,
turning to the Governor with the
expansive smile that is one of his
marked characteristics, said, quiet
lly:
"Oh, it's all right, Governor {;
that coat belongs TO me-"
An examination of the two over
coats showed that the mistake was
not at all to be wondered at, as
both were black and made in the
same style, with black velvet COL
lars Then, too, both were found
to be about the same size in gen.
eral measurement, and the garment
of the President was as comforta-
BILE fit for the Governor as his
own. The exchange was readily
effected and the delay was not per-
ceptibly delayed.

After one of the most strenuous
campaigns that any American city
has ever experienced-in which
Senator Marcus A. Hanna, Repub-
lican, and Mayor Tom L. Johnson,
Democrat, were the opposing lead
ers-Mayor johnson won.a signal
victory on the 9th in the city of
Cleveland. 1t is conceded to have
placed him, beyond challenge, at
the head of his party in Ohio, and
in the front rank of national leader
ship. Besides this, it gives him
what the State legislature had
sought 20 diyest him of--a free
hand in the administration of the
city which has again elected him
to its principal office.

Democratic Victory.

The Democratic party is entitled
to all the credit of the prosecution
of the Northern Securities Com
pany and the great antitrust decis-
ion of the court at st. Paul. 1t is
Democratic victory, not victory
of President Roosevelt nor of the
Republican Congress. The public
sentiment which forced the Nation
al administration to act against
the trusts was created by Demo
cratic agitation. The Republicans
were forced into corner. They
were compelled to act for the sup
preston of the trusts or go before
the country at the next election as
the party of the trusts, supporting
the trusts and supported by the
trusts. In claiming the credit of
the anti trusts victory in the courts
the Republicans are stealing Demo.
cratic thunder. The larceny will
not prevail-Lexington Democrat.

Pats First Thought.
[Lippincott's.1 ]

Back in the good old days when nerves
and railroads were little known, an Old
stage road ran from Lake Champlain to
Ogdensburg, n. Y, passing through the
little town Of Sodom. This village nestled
in valley between two great hills, over
which the white ribbon of the road wound
steep,y.
Upon one of the trips of the stage the
regular driver, who had been at home for
some weeks recovering from an illness,
was riding inside while the red-haired,
mild-featured, big-bOned Irishman acting
as his substitute occupied the drivers seat
upon the box. The day was a beautiful
one and the passengers were enjoying
their drive keenly, their appetites increas
ing as the distance lessened between them
and the town of Sodom with its promised
pause for refreshment.
Suddenly, as the heavy stage numbered
over the brow of the hill, down which the
road plunged at sharp angle, running
through the little town at its foot and
ascending the hill beyond. the passengers
became conscious that their pace had been
recklessly increased. Faster and faster
they went dashing down the hill at a rate
rapidly becoming a furious one. Trees
and bushes at last became but a dzzying
blur along the road. All clung to the
reeling stage and held their breath in ter
hill with ever-increasing speed, into the
town, past the hostelry with the waiting
host left standing in amaze at the door, past
the post office without pause, and out
upon the road leading up the face of the
hill beyond. There the pace slackened,
and as the incline grew more steep. at last
the smoking horses came to a standstill.
With one accord the dazed passengers tupl-
bIed out and surrounded the driver who
now stood at the head of his reeking lead
ers.
"What is it, Pat? What is it? Did
breathless questions.
'.Nope." replied Pat with set face, at
wor that" pointing grimly before him
There lay the stage-tongue dragging use

horses, and completely severed from the
coach. At n glance the regular driver
comprehended the meaning of the danger
to which the passengers Of that stage, de
been exposed, and, realizing the miracle
where he stood.
Later, back ut the inn, when the excite
ment had somewhat subsided and fresl
horses were being put to the repaired
coach, someone turned to Pat and asked,

HER BURDEN TOO HEAVY.
Girl Born Armless and Legless at Last Com
mitted Suicide.
kansas City Journal.

The death by suicide of Miss Dollie De
laney in Saline County the other day
brings out a story very suggestive of the
of Helen Keller, the blind and
deaf and dumb girl of whom so much is
said in the papers. Miss Delaney was
born nearly 10 years ago without arms or
legs. In the place Of her right arm there
was a handless stub a few inches long.
With this stub she was able to reach her
chin, and by holding pen between the
stub and the chin she was able to write.
She could crochet and do other fancy
work, and she had cultivated an artistic
bent until she could draw or paint a very
passable picture. Moreover, she had de-
veloped a way Of locomotion by which she
could get about very readily, using a
crut"h under the stump of her only arm.
Perhaps nothing would better show the
facility with which the poor girl per-
formed seemingly impossible things than
the manner in which she accomplished her
own DEATH She managed to load and
cock rifle and discharge its bullet
through her heart, using the crutch to
spring the trigger.
Up to very recently the girl had seemed
to be happy and contented. 1t is gathered
from some of her letters, however, that of
late she has been brooding over her un-
fortunate condition.
