that his resignation be accepted as pas

Der lst. The announcement fell like a
bolt out Of the blue. Even the closest
friends and advisers Of the reverend
gentleman were unprepared for such
and the congregation strained their ears
and held bated breath while. the clerk
read the letter. The pastor gave no
reason for wishing to resign beyond the
statement that a long cherished hope
Of his was nearing realization and that
It's fruition would demand the action he
had taken. After several motions had
been made and rejected the motion was
adopted appointing committee to con-
suit with Mr.. McCaul in the endeavor
TO induce him TO reconsider his action,
but from what We have been able "a
learn his decision is irrevocable and

well trained for his work. buoyant
spirit and an earnest zeal for the great
cause he had taken up. blended with q

friends from the start, and now that

Our Citizens Point with Pride 10 the

HIGH STANDARD OF MORALS
PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER ABOUNDS.

The city of7Marion enjoys Fquite "a
distinction in7more ways: than one.
We think our readers will attest this
fact before the close of these remarks.
Our moral atmosphere is the best.
Our people cannot be beat. Our crops
are all that man could wish for and the
purity of our mineral leads the world.
We have in this part of Gods moral
heritage presidential timber we think,
congressional and judicial timber we
know. We point with pride to a con-
gresham in action and an appellate
judge in deliberation. We boast of
our ability to send to the United States
senate the only republican senator
ever elected in Kentucky. We have
one man, who could with ease keep on
the right track, with all the wheels
creased, any kind of a financial prop
osition from a penny Sunday school
collection to the treasury of the United
States.
We claim one man, not now in our
midst, loaned as it were-who would
grace the columns of any city daily and
who for facile, snappy, terse writing
is only equalled bv one other in Ken
tccky. Cr't.enden county has sailed
down the sea Of time for many wears
without fear and with much favor.
And now it has been discovered that
we have inventors in our midst.
Mr.. A. Dewey Of the Marion Milling
Company invented some kind of milling
machinery and exchanged his ideas for
several thousand dollars. Mr.. John
Morse invented a button case and they
are in use today. Quite a number of
inventions. have been evolved from
Marion thought domes.
Now comes to light the latest sensa-
tion in the way Of an invention. Mr..
j. Leroy Shrode, at present Superin-
tendent Of the Marion Electric Light &
Ice Company. has obtained patent
for an automatic oil cup which solves a
world Of problems for engineers. II
promises to do away with hot boxes,
bearings and the like. Upon examina-
tion you cannot tell the Shrode cup
from the ordinary cup. They look alike
and MI work alike on stationary and
movable engines. The 'Shrode Auto
matte Oil Cup" is an appliance which
automatically opens and feeds oil fast
er the hotter the bearing gets.
The beauty Of this can readily be
seen. The more oil the greater the
tendency to cool the bearing and the
cooler the bearing the less oil flows
which Of course is limited to certain
amount. The peculiar operation Of
this cup, especially the automatic
mechanism, is still a secret for the
which Mr.. Shrode is certainly justiha-
BILE. Mr.. Shrode has already been
offered $1,000 for his invention by one
Of the largest oil cup manufacturers
in the United States. He refused the
offer and says whenever they place
another nOught to the right side Of the
two already there he will sell.
Mr.. ShrOde is practically newcomer

that generates distinction among her
sons and daughters and newcomers.

A STORE ASSIGNS
Bamford Stock in Receivers
Hands for Benefit of Credi-
tors.
THE END OF HARD STRUGGLE
Mr.. Bamford Estimates that Debts
Will Be Fully Paid e. w. Pierce,
Receiver Now in Possession.

On Wednesday the M. M. Bamford
stock passed into the hands of E. w.
Pierce, receiver. The auction sale
proceeded as advertised and but few
of the bargain hunters who crowded
the store knew that any change had
taken place. Today the store is closed
and an invoice is being taken under
the direction of the receiver. Mr..
Pierce tells us that he will close out
the stock as soon as possible, in bulk
if reasonable price is offered, if not
the goods will be offered at retail un-
der a receivers sale. The indebted
ness amounts to about $4,000 and Mr..
Bamford estimates the stock at from
$4,000 to $4,000. 1t is usual in such
cases that the total Indebtedness
amounts to more than at first thought,
and that when sold at forced sale stock
does not bring as much as expected,
nevertheless the stock is said to be in
fine condition. Mr.. Pierce states that
the cost of the receivership will be
made as low as possible and it is
hoped to pay dollar for dollar.
There will doubtless be many critics,
but is the Reviews opinion that Mr..
and Mrs. Bamford have done their
best since coming to Denison to make
! their business a success, they have
worked early and late and Mr.. Ban-
ford has worked under the serious
handicap of i'll health. While it has
been feared for some time that the
store was laboring under difficulties
the news of the receivership caused
quite sensation and is much regret
ted by all of our business men. Since
early in the fall Mr.. Bamford has
been anxious to close out the business
and yesterday when creditors from St.
Joseph, and Kansas City became inn

ceivership was the best solution Of
