The people were slow in assemb-

noon, the band was delayed in get
ting there and it was about three
O'Clock before Congressman Beall
began his address of welcome ia be-
half of Elm camp. Mr.. Beall spoke
nearly an hour and his address was
thoughtful, logical presentation of
the beauties of woodcraft. The
young congressman was given close
attention and was literally applaud
ed. "There is the coming man of
Texas" came from a voice in the
audience following Mr.. Beall' $ intro
duction by Hon. s. p. Skinner.
Mr.. Beall said In part;
5overeigns, ladies and gentlemen:
In behalf of Elm Camp, Woodmen of
the World of Waxahachie; yes, in
behalf of every man, woman and
child In the city l am commissioned
to extend to you q most cordial well
come. You are Woodmen and as
such you have been accu stoned to
wander through the great forests,
but you never traversed o forest
where q welcome bloomed in more
luxuriant abundance than in Waxa-
hachie. We welcome you as Wood
men, that great organization that
has enrolled more than three million
members beneath its spotless ban
ner; an order that keeps alive in the
hearts OF it's members charity and
love and has planted more than g.
900 monuments all over this broad
land. We welcome you with all our
hearts and ask you to enjoy your
selves today and tomorrow.
| am very MUCH gratified to well
come the ladies to this log rolling
They have an interest in woodcraft
and Ii was for them and for their
protection that the order was insti-
tuted.
Mr.. BealI then told of the benefits
and blessings 20 be derived from the
order and gave a comparison Of fig
ares to show that fraternal insur-
ance has many advantages over old
line insurance. A brief history Of
the order from its origin fifteen
years ago 10 the present time was
given. He said 1t was distinctly an
American institution, aud he was
American enough 10 believe that
American institutions are the great

marks the speaker said the lodge
was born In the west where men
are born brave and free. In Texas
there are more Woodmen than in
any other state in the union. The
state as more Woodmen insurance
than any of the old line companies.
More than seventy Thousand stalwart
men constitute the great army Of
Woodmen In Texas. The order
teaches one great truth first, that is,
that we are our brothers keeper.

but a. this particular time, inspired
by the happy surroundings, he was
at his best. His speech was an or
atorical gem and In language force
full and eloquent the speaker pro-
claimed the sublime beauties of

has been customary for the school to
entertain the members of any team
which had won a state championship.
but last year the school board forbade
the use of the funds of any of the
school organizations for this purpose,
so the students got together and form

receptions as it has no official connec-

CLEAR THE ATTIC
BUT DO NOT GIVE THE RUBBISH
TO THE NEEDY
In This Housecieaning Time House
wives Should Send to Relief Organi-
cations Only Such Articles as They
Can Use.

Women are apt to feel very charita-
bly, disposed during housecleaning time.
The work of putting a house in order
for the summer is not, of course, re-
spOnsible for the philanthropic frame
of mind, but hOusecleaning brings to
light much buried treasure, and the
thought is apt to occur to the house
wife that one of the various charitable
organizations will feel grateful and
that she will feel relieved if her attic
is cleared for the benefit of the poor.
The Relief society, the Salvation Army
people and the Bethel are always glad
to receive garments that can be made
over, and the officers of the army are
especially thankful to receive maga-
zines at their barracks. 1t is an easy
matter, too. to dispose of furniture that
is no longer in use, for if the housewife
has not her private pensioners, she has
merely to telephone to one of the nu-
merous homes" or aSylums in the city
and a wagon will call for what she de-
sires to dispose of. Some women are
more anxious to have their atticS
cleared than they are to supply the
needs of the poor and they send away
garments that are utterly worthless
and furniture too battered and broken

Finds Where Curtius Leaped.

ROME, April 2O.-Sig. Giacomo Boni,
the famous archaeologist, who is di-
recting the excavations of the Roman
Forum, made today what is considered
the greatest discovery of many years.
He came upon a place where there
was an altar dedicated to Marcus Cur
thus. patriotic Roman youth, who. in
362 B. c., to placate the gods jumped.
completely armed, on. horseback, into
a mhasm which had opened in the
Forum and which the soothsayers de-
clared could not be filled except by the
sacrifice of the chief wealth or strength
of the Roman people. After Curtius'
sacrifice, tradition says, the chasm i'm
mediately closed up.
The orifice of the chasm found by
Sig. Boni is formed by twelve large
stones roughly sculptured.s The arch
aeologist also found a hole which con-
tanned the remains of sacrifices made
in later years to young Curtius on the
altar.

Louisiana Democrats Carry the State

NEW ORLEANS, La, April 20.-In
the general election the Democrats
swept the state, electing their
ticket headed by former Justice n. c.
blanchard for governor and practically
a solid representation in both houses OF
the legislature. The regular Repub-
licans put no ticket in the field and
practically no negro votes were cast.
The Lily Whites control the federal
offices here and made their contest sim
ply to maintain their organization.

Capt. Sam Moore, prominent mer-

the latter dead when the latter at

tor Murphy J. Foster having been nom-
mated in the primaries, will receive

faction which is inspired by what they
consider their kindly action so they

over, the people who receive these

and the donors never suspect that their

to the refuse heap. But those people
think things. 1t would be we'll for tho
woman who is benevolently disposed t,
ask herself whether her object is to
get rid of rubbish free of cost or to aid
the needy before she telephones to any
one of the various organizations who
state that they are glad to receive
contributions. Worn out finery or even
half-wOrn finery is not a valuable do
nation, and neither is discarded bric-a-
brac, or furniture absolutely beyond re-

shoes that have been discarded because
they did not fit the Wearer, iron beds
that have been relegated to the attic
because brass ones have taken their
place, and clothes which children have
outgrown are always thankfully re-
ceived by those who work among the
needy. They will find some means of
distributing them without pauperiZing
the recipients. 1t is delightful to read
of old attics filled with all kinds of
relics of other days, but the modern
woman is beginning to realize that such
a place is unsanitary and she no longer

MAN is DROWNED IN A clsTERN.
Mo One Near at Time to Tell How Ac-
cdent Happened.

BENKELMAN-J. o. Jeppsen, a
mason, of Stratton, for many years
resident of Dundy county, met with
an accident which cost him his life.
Mr.. Jeppsen had been employed to re-
pair the inner walls of a cistern be-
longing to G. c.. Barr of this place,
and was working about three feet
down from a board attached to rope
suspended from a picket fence above.
Shortly after he had commenced work
the little daughter of Mr.. Barr went
out to where he was engaged, and
not finding him told her mother, who
went out to the cistern and peering
down discovered the board which had
been used as a seat and Mr.. Jeppsen's
lead pencil floating on the water. Help
was at once called and upon exami-
nation the body of Mr.. Jeppsen was
found at the bottom of the cistern
Upon medical examination life was
pronounced extinct.
1t is supposed that the rope which
held the board upon which Mr.. Jepp-
sen was sitting became loose, and as
there was nothing to grab or to use
in saving himself he fell into the wa
ter and was drowned.

CARS FOR MOVING.
Heavy Orders for Those to Be Used
Under Low Rates.

Heavy Orders for Those to Be Used
Under Low Rates.
OMAHA-All of the railroads enter
ing Omaha are receiving heavy orders
for cars to be used in moving grain
under the low rates now in effect and
which are to be superseded June 10
by the new rates agreed upon at the
Chicago meeting recently held to set
tie the grain rate war. Fortunately
for grain shippers, all the lines are
well supplied with cars just at this
time and the orders are being filled
as rapidly as they are received. Any
shipper who does not get his grain
aboard the cars before June 10 will
have to pay much higher rate than
he would if shipped prior to that date.
This is the cause of the rush for
cars.
Advance notices of the raise in
rates have been received at the local
Offices of the various companies.
These notices state that the regular
tariff will be sent out before June 10
and that the new rates will be effec-
tive on that date. The rates quoted
are: From Omaha to Chicago, IL
cents on wheat and II cents on corn;
Omaha to the Mississippi river, when
grain is destined beyond the Indiana
Illinois state line, 8 cents on wheat
and cents on corn; Omaha to Min
neapolis, II cents on wheat and 10
cents on corn. These are the same
rates as made public at the time of
the Chicago settlement. The present
rates to Chicago are 5 cents on wheat
and cents on corn, so it will be seen
that shippers who get their grain
loaded prior to the date on which the
new rates are effective will, when the
shipments are destined to Chicago,
save 7 cents per 100

late hours. She must attend receptions

quiet evening at home. Her whole
time is taken up in keeping engage
ments or entertaining in her own home.
Her system becomes completely run

herself in a condition known as sys-

catarrhal nervousness.
