Spring Brook, N. d., July 5,
1905. The Daily Times. Dear
Friends: While sitting out on
the prairie at this place watch
ing our train burn, | will drop
you a line. We have had a big
wreck and are all thankful to
have escaped unhurt. An
empty baggage car jumped the
track and derailed 8 other cars.
We rode about three or four
car lengths on the ties before
the train stopped. pretty
rough riding | tell you.) Pas
sengers and train crew all es-
capped. A number hurt but not
seriously. One fellow stealing
a ride on the truck was serious
ly hurt. Our train consisted of
3 sleepers, a diner, 2 coaches,
p baggage and one mail car.
The back sleeper was saved and
the mail car damaged but saved
The balance completely burned
up inside Of two hours. The
fire started by the range in the
sleeper we were in upsetting.
The Wrecker is here and a train
will pick us up some time be-
fore midnight. Our journey
up to the time of the wreck has
been very pleasant. Excuse
this paper, our tablet went up
in smoke, with that exception
our baggage was all saved.
Here is a train to take us to
Welloston to stay all night, we
will resume our journey in the
morning.
Yours truly,
Azel Rover.

A wife of a rich man fell in
love with a man not her hus-

had given her and some of his
money and was clipping with
the man. The automobile in
which he was to carry her
away wouldn't work, and he
got mad and said damn"
The woman refused to elope

Scotland has contribu ted great

Scotland has contribu ted great
men to civilization, and the
Huguenots have refined the
contents of the melting got of
France through Puritanism.
The ntterances of Folk, Hay
and Roosevelt are but echoes
from the Renaissance. The
Puritan was narrow because
society tried to force him to
take filth at swords point, but
instead of broadening he deep
ened his channels and added a
power which has brought us to
our present high standard of
ethics. Spencer and Milton
were followed by John Bunyan.
Cromwell was the greatest
farmer in the world, and when
peace turned to war the farm
er, the smithy and the minister,
who fight only to defend home
and family, rose in defense.
Cromwell left two monuments
the Colonial system and the
English navy.
A fool can perform a great
service for his state. 1t was
not John Wesley, but his wife,
who founded Methodism. Had
there been no George III there
would have been no George
Washington. One cannot make
people good by legislation, for
instead of outside law one
needs inside principles. The
next step was the great revival
of religion led by Mrs. Wesley,
who was the mother of the
greatest disciple since John. It
was this idea of Puritanism
that gave liberty to the slave,
created popular education, and
gave new breadth to society,".

Chautauqua Notes
DIR. CADMAN.

! DIR. CADMAN.
About fifteen hundred people
gathered to hear DIR. Cadman's
lecture on "The Puritan"
Misses Giles and Robertson
sang a beautiful duet and Mrs.
Greene presided at the piano.
Mrs. Hills delighted the aud
fence by one of her solos. We
also took much pleasure in well
coming Frank Harris, who
played Mrs. Hills accompani-
ment.
Great men are advised to
study maps and then more and
larger maps. Studying the map
of Europe, Mr.. Cadman divided
it into two parts, the northern
and the southern part. In the
southern part, with Athens as
the center, we are encompassed
by the greatest art, music and
sculpture that the world has
ever known. Genius has been
developed until the Acropolis of
Athens is the emulation of
beauty, until Europe's cathed-
rails are petrified hallelujahs
and her myriads of temples
frozen prayers. But it is north
OF this line that the great con-
quest of races took place, that
the Goths and Vandals fought,
that Wagner and Beethoven
welded the baton, and that
gave birth to Lincoln, Glad
stone and Bright. The scepter
was taken from France, Italy
and Greece and passed to Ger
many, Britain and America,
which rearranged the map of
the whole world.
Freedom of speech and liber-
ty of religion were not born
with us, but we had to fight up
from the ape, through tigers
and lions and fraternal war to
a larger Christ. And it is only
by leveling the barriers of par
ochial fences that we can enter
the broad life of thought, reas-
on and liberty.
1t was not the Dutch ran, the
Pilgrim, the Calvinist or the
Presbyterian, but the Puritan
who brought forth the new
leaders. The Puritan is a
scientific product. We struggle
against hereditary tendencies,
and like an omnibus carry all
our relatives with us. We were
passional before we were ration
al and war supplanted peace.
The spring of knowledge has
gathered force during all ages
and formed a river of educa-
ton, which is supplying the
land with its energy, building
schools and colleges and carry
ing our youth to an open world
where are to be found the
treasures Of all time. Mutila-
ton is not conservation, and a
belief in a bilious religion which
; casts a darkness over one is not
true Puritanism. The most
perfect Puritan of all time was
John Milton who just in truth,
genius and religion was a child
of the Renaissance. There are
geographical limits to genius.
You can not make a people out
of education alone. Man is
more than a logical machine
and this fact has made Calvary
the center of the world in
stead of Athens. The Reform
alton was not a theological
movement, it was the uprising
of one mans conscience, who
said he needed no intercessor
nor pomp to worship God.
Science became the handmade
of religion, and he found his
first literature in a translation
of the Bible. John Calvin
caused Katherine, the Jezebel
of modern history, to tremble
