PROF. MoNAHAN
Champion Skater at Auditorium Rink
This Afternoon and Tonight.

The Galveston Tribune says:
What is probably one of the finest
exhibitions Of roller skating ever wit
messed in Galveston was given last
night at the Beach roller skating rink
by Prof. Monahan. His work was
something marvellous. In turning.
twisting, toe-spinning in perfect time
to the music of the brass band, he
ELECTED a tremendous applause from
the large attendance there to watch
him perform.
He made his appearance on the floor
waltzing and shifting from one step to
another with a grace impossible TO at
tain except by an artist. His high
jumps over the backs of chairs set Is
feet apart almost caused heart failure
to the spectators, so daring was the
feat. The various styles of two step
ping was excellent, while the toe skat-
ing in, out and around about six rows
of burning candles. four in each row.
being about ~ inches apart, was de-
cidedly the most beautiful of all his
tricks. The lights in the rink were
turned out, leaving only the candles
burning. The tremendous applause
Prof. Monahan received was only
fair example of what an appreciative
audience he had.
Every afternoon for the next week
Prof Monahan will give two perform
ances at the Beach rink on fremont
and Q. one at o'clock I'm the after

Hurry at Meals Will Send You &c
Brattons for Mi-o-na Stomach

Eat in haste and repent at leis-

Here in Palestine, as in thousands
of other places over the country, hur-
ry at meals increases the druggists
business. Not a day passes that Brat
ton Drug Co. does not sell several
packages of Mi-o-na stomach tablets
to those who have ruined their di-
gestion by not taking time to eat.
BrattOn Drug Co. have seen so many
cures made by Mona that they sell
it under an absolute guarantee that it
will be successful in every case where
ii is used in accordance with direc-
tons, that is, one tablet before each
meal, and will refund the money TO
anyone whom It does not help. A
large box of Mona tablets costs but
SO cents if it cures; nothing if it
fails.

been that today the Sunday school is

Live Topics of Vital Interest.

Chief among the topics to be dis
cussed by Mr.. Meigs will be the TAX
ing of a religious census of our city
in single day This work is now be-
ing done in many cities and towns in
Texas The work is always full of
surprises and blessings to those who
do it and properly follow 1t up. Ter
rell, a city of nearly 10000 inhabi-
tants, was thus canvassed in four
hours, and the report is that we
never did anything so easy in our
lives" Surely we can do here what
Terrell can do.

A World Wide Movement.

Not every one is aware that the In
ternational Association, by securing
the cooperation and concerted action
of all denominations has lifted the
Sunday school from a mere Depart.
ment of the church for the children"
to an organized army of millions, a
world wide movement, and veritable
World Power" for righteousness.
But such is the case, as Mr.. Meigs
will clearly show, and our own County
Association is but one of its hundreds
of auxiliary organizations.

The Sunday School New Thing.


Not all Sunday school workers
know and realize what a new thing
the Sunday school really is. Not all
know that the Sunday school army
which now numbers close TO 3S,000,-
000-the greatest army the world
ever knew-hadn't Soldier" in II
100 years ago, when their great
grandfather was still living. Not ev-
erybody knows that the house of
Hanna Hill, who started the first Sun
day school in Massachusetts, still
stands, and that her picture may be
seen in the house of Miss Marian
Wilkinson in Beverly, Mass. And
yet, new as it is. Sunday school work
has grown from a little company of
n boys and SO girls, in 1888, picked
out of the dirty streets in Gloucester,
England, and taught spelling and
reading, on Sunday, in Robert Raikes
Sunday School'-this has grown to
an army of millions who study, not
spelling and reading, but Gods word
every Sunday in the year
The marvellous growth and eff
ficiency of this work is largely due to
the efforts of the Association repre-
scented by Mr.. Meigs, which has sue
ceeded in organizing the forces of all
denominations and getting them, not
only to study the same lesson every
Sunday, but also to cooperate to-
gether along all lines of Sunday
school work, dealing out information
and inspiration which is helpful alike
to all Sunday school workers.

BACK FROM WILDS
OF LABRADOR

Stephen NJ Tasker. the well-known
explorer of Philadelphia, and his wifc
have reached Montreal after a remark
able expedition through the wilds Of
Labrador. Early IN July Mr.. and Mrs
Tasker, accompanied by a couple of
Indian guides. started on a trip from
Northern Ontario IN large canoe. The
party padded down the Missanable and
Moose rivers to Moose Factory where
they spent ten days. and then took the
Hudson. Bay steamer 10 Charlton
Island. which Is the port for the Hud-
son Bay steamers on their annual trips.
Thence they continued IN thes mall
steamer to Rupert House. just north
OF James Bay. where there is an excel
lent harbor, and followed the shore up
TO the great Whale River a Hudson
Bay post There Taskers party again
took 10 the canoe and padded three
days northward to Richmond Gulf, on
the east coast OF the bay. Thence
they struck northeast along the Quash
initan River and. following this river
and chain OF lakes, reached the Upper
Clear water River TO Clear Watei
Lake, which Tasker said was so big
that they could not see across II and
could get no clear idea OF its real
area.
A further paddle brought the party TO
Seal Lake, which Is about forty miles
long, and here they found themselves at
the height of land, sloping away to the
northeast corner OF the continent After
lot OF hard portaging and traVersing
small lakes. the party reached another
lake In country which Is marked on the
map with a significant blank, finding this
lake was the headwatcr OF stream rum
ming into Coksok river. After follow
ing this they reached Fort Chino, one OF
the outlying posts of the Hudson Bay
Company, about forty miles above I'm
gava Bay This point they finally reach
ed. after twenty-five days journey
through the unbroken wilderness OF Lab
rador.
This was found 10 be a much better
route than that taken by Elmer Hubbard
when that intrepid explorer lost his life
by starvation. Taskers head guide. an
Indian called George Elson. accompanied
Hubbard on his first journey ana also
Mrs. Hubbard when she made the trip
after her husbands death Tasker's party
had no difficulty getting food living
chiefly on ptarmgan, spruce partridge
and brook and lake trout. They encoun-
tered numbers Of caribou. but killed few.
as they could not carry them along.
on reaching the ocean at Fort Chino

by good luck, they fell in with "A trading

watching with interest the action be-
ing taken by the states OF Pennsyl-
vania and New Jersey to stop the poll
luton OF the Delaware river. For the
three years shad fishermen have con-
'ended that the pollution Of the Della
ware at Philadelphia and other places
Is great setback to the run OF shad
and viii be IN years to come unless
some action Is taken.
The most experienced fishermen de-
clare that young shad after being
hatched at the head OF the river cannot

Is decreasing each year and IN course
