wedding was q quiet one only

was at one time q resident of
this place. but moved to Sulphur,

bride was becomingly dressed
in Alice blue silk poplin, hand
embroidered. and the maid Of
honor, Miss Cessa Fuller, in
blue silk. The best man was
Mr.. J. Nusz. Mr.. and Mrs.
Fuller received q large number
Of beautiful presents. They
left on the afternoon train for
Sulphur, Ia, which will be their
future home. Among those
present were: Mr.. and Mrs.

upon II and finally they prohibited all
forms Of Biblical representation In the
churches.
In time most Of the Easter mys-
terry pictures disappeared from the
churches, but many of the Christmas
illustrations had acquired such a firm
hold upon the popular heart that they
remained and have been brought down
to the present day in a somewhat modi-
fed form. Such Is the "Bambino,"
which is seen today in all parts Of the
Christian world and which has come
to possess almost q ritualistic signin-
canoe.

Is confined to q limited region, Is the

derstanding Of the subject illustrated.
This Is the origin Of the mystery or
miracle plays and also Of the sacred
tableaux vivants which in time were
enacted In the rural churches. These
living pictures always illustrated some
Biblical subject and were probably of
great spiritual benefit to those who
could not read.
It was thus that the great features
OF the Christian religion were made m
telligfble to the public. The practice
began early In the tenth century and
grew In favor for at least 200 years.
In the thirteenth century, however. the
custom had become 90 subject to
abuse that the clergy began to frown

To the Laiayesse Advertiser:
How pleasant it is to meet
friends, especially in the house
of God, and mingle our voices in
songs of praise and feel that our
prayers are not ascending alone.
This has been my happy priv
lege once more. and to listen to a
soul-stirring sermon by Rev.
F. E. ROgersonth the birth of John,
also the birth of Christ, the Saw
ior of the world, and explaining
why the religion founded on the
Lord Jesus Christ is destined to
become universal. This is an
ideal Christmas day. The spirit
of love pervades the air, and,
while we rejoice. let our hearts
thrOb in sympathy for the less
fortunate ones and for all whose
hearts are sadly bereaved of
loved ones, whose smiles have so
often frightened the Christmas
tide. Let sincere prayers ascend
to our Father for his spirit to
comfort their hearts and lead US
all in the way of truth and right
eOuSneSS.
With best wishes for a happy
and prosperous new year to The
ADVERTISER and Lafayette in
1906, I am your humble friend.

fashion to illustrate the gospel nara

was borrowed from the old heather

Programs of Different Roo&

Friday morning all the tow
public schools held appropriate
Christmas exercises, both ina
teresting and entertaining. At
the High School two of the rooms
combined, Misses Faulk and
Dickson's, and in addition to
exercises had a presentation of
gifts which Afforded the children
lots of pleasure and amusement.
In Mr.. Foote'S room an interest
ing feature was an excellent
debate by four pupils, as to
whether gifts should be done
away with at Christmas. The
affirmative which argued against
gifts argued well, but the mega
tive argued just a little better,
and it was unanimously decided
that gifts are the proper thing
at Christmas, of which decision
old Santa Claus no doubt took
due notice, and accordingly paid
every boy and girl in Mr.. Foote'S
room a welcome visit. In Mr..
Avery's room two girls and two
boys discussed the question as to
which was the more ENJOYABLE
Christmas or Easter Sunday and
had a fine program all the way
through.

der water, crops and farm machinery
have been lost and all houses in the
path of the flood washed away. The
water in most places is six feet deep.
Every adobe house in Anthony, New
Mexico, has been washed away and
people have fled to Ell Paso. Mrs. j.
L. Brown and family of Douglas. Ari-
zona, were caught in the flood at An
thony and were two days and nights
without food or water. Finally they
were rescued from the roof of barn.
Two hundred carloads of baled hay

greater damage, especially at Ell Paso,
where the lower section of the city will
be inundated if weak sand dyke
gives way. Laborers are working con-

Chicago Strike Continues.

Chicago, May 2S.-Nothing devel-
oped to-day that would indicate an i'm
mediate settlement of the teamsters'
strike, which has been In progress
nearly two months That the labor I'M
ions are of the belief that the fight
will be long one was demonstrated
at the meeting of the Chicago Fedora
ton of Ilbor to-day when arrange
ments were made for holding strike
demonstration on July A.
According to the present plans 1t is
the intention to hold monster parade
of the strikers and the affiliated unions
unless the controversy has been ended
before that date AT the meeting to-
day each union affiliated with the cen
delegates at the request of President
Dold.
The strike situation was discussed
in all its details and the sentiment of
the meeting was that the teamsters
should continue the fight until the
seven express companies should offer
some sort of compromise. The Off
cials of the express companies are still
obdurate in their declaration that no
concessions need be looked for from
their side. so the matter of settlement
through this channel seems as remote
as ever.
With over 1000 policemen and depu-
ties of the sheriff detailed on strike
Luty. the employers declare that dur
ing the present week they will be able
10 demonstrate to the strikers that any
further continuation of the fight will
be- suicidal to the teamsters' union.

Anxiety in Russia.

st. Petersburg, May 30, 2:15 a. M
In this momentous hour the emperor.
the admiralty and the Russian public
are waiting breathlessly for the Japa-
nese to furnish authentic news of the
fate of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky and
his fleet. in which the hopes of the
Russians are centereA The official
disposition is to construe Tokio's 81
lence favorably, but at the same time
the strategic reason for such silence is
recognized.
The public after the. premature jubi-
lation of Saturday night, is inclined to
reverse its attitude and to become pes
simistic.
The report sent to Washington by
the American consul at Nagasaki of
the sinking of five Russian warships,
including a battleship and repair ship,
was accepted as the most definite and
the most authentic piece of news re-
ceiyed up to midnight, and undoubtedly
produced bad impression. The fear
wss expressed that the battleship sunk
might have been Rojestvensky's flag
ship, the Kniaz Souvaroff, on which
the Japanese undoubtedly would con-
centrate their fire.
The sinking of the repair ship kam-
chatka, which was filled with the most
modern machinery, might. it was
thought, prove later to be mcse Sc
we're loss than, that of warship. but
at the admiralty where crowds congre-
gated Sunday afternoon and evening,
the opinion was expressed that if RO-
jestvensky had cleared the gateway to
the sea of Japan with no greater loss
than that reported by the American
consul, the passage had not been
dearly purchased, and especially if
later reports should prove that the
Japanese losse were proportionate.
Probably no one In Russia displayed
such intense anxiety as the Emperor.
Early Sunday morning he summoned
Grand Duke Alexis, high admiral; Ad-
miral Avellan, head of the Russian ad-
miralty department, and Admiral Wir-
enus, chief of the general staff of the
navy, to Tsarskoe-Selo, and remained
closeted with them up to a late hour
last night, impatiently awaiting infor
nation, and porting over charts.
The only news received by his ma
jeSty from Russian sources were dis
patches from Russian agents and con-
suls at Chinese ports, which contained
nothing but current rumors. The only
time the Emperor left the members of
the cabinet was to attend services in
the chapel in the Alexander palace,
vensky's success.
The Emperor was greatly distressed
when the Washington dispatch con
tanning the information sent by the
consul at Nagasaki arrived.

Further Riots in Chicago.

aires: yesterday in the teamsters'
strike and although nobody was Sc
riously hurt, there were number OF
vicious fights in the lumber district,
during which the police were com.
PEELED to use their clubs and in one in

the mobs. In one instance AN express
wagon bearing placards telling Of its
protection by the injunction of fed
eral court, was attacked and almost
overturned before the police could

President Talks Live Stock.

Washington. May 2s.-For the pur-
pose of enlisting the sympathies of
President Roosevelt in larger export
market for merican meats. f. j. Hag-
enbarth of Denver president of the
National Live Stock Association. called
at the White House yesterday. So
great was the Presidents interest that
he has promised to deal with the SUBJ
ject in his. next annual message to
Congress, and will take up other mat
ters of vital Importance to live stock
men.
Nothing can compensate for the
loss of market. except to get that
market back" said Mr.. Hagenbarth to
the President. I'VE have lost more
than $100.O00,000 annually for the last
three or four years in export market
for meats alone through commercial
Misunderstanding that have resulted
in tariff retaliation against meat from
this country. Germany's discrimina-
tion has been the most severe, al
though the loss of the French market
has cost liye stock interests $40,o00,.
900 annually.
The President encouraged Mr.. Hag-
enbarth to continue his explanation.
and then asked him what he proposed
as solution.
l. Reciprocity preferably, and il we
can't get that, retaliation" replied Mr..
Hagenbarth. The President agreed as
to the remedy. although he thought
that reciprocity and retaliation could
both be adopted by the United States
"a reciprocal arrangement with coun-
tries that were disposed to be friendly
commercially and saving the retalia-
tory methods for countries that were
inclined to treat the United States
with unfairness. He agreed with Mi.
Hagenbarth that the subject was one
that should go before Congress and
the people. and asked the president of
the live stock association to present a
brief that would inform him of the
associaticn's position. Mr.. Hagen
barth promised to put the brief in the
Presidents hands by July list.
