The Meeting Continues.

The protracted meeting in the Bap-
list church continues this week. The
very inclement weather has hlndered
many people from attending the meet
ing, but those who have attended have
greatly enjoyed the powerful gospel
sermons by DR.. Hatcher. On all sides
people are saying that more powerful
gospel sermons have mover been heard
here. DR.. Hatcher's masterful efforts
have made good the saying that he Is
one of the strongest and most forceful
gospel preachers In the country. In his
dlscourses every word is we'll chosen,
every sentence is beautifully impressive
and his arguments thoroughly logical.
The plan of salvation is made 30 plain
that the simplest mind can understand
it. The community is greatly favored
in having DR.. Hatcher these days and
the meeting and such powerful preach
ing cannot fail of great good. There
was more interest in the meeting last
night than before. Services are held
every afternoon at o'clock and every
night at 7 80.

DO WE LOVE SHAKESPEARE?

1t would seem, indeed, from the con
dition of Shakespeare on our stage
that we all got enough of him in
school A big noise is made on the
occasion Of big-priced production by
a big-advertised star, that the full
house refutes the charge that Ameri-
cans do not love Shakespeare 1t does
no such thing. 1t refutes nothing but
the supposition that Americans love
anything SO much as bigness TO
take the monetary success of occa-
sional and extraordinary perform
ances, appealing to our liking for the
unusual and the demonstrative, as in
dicative Of love, suggests that we no
longer know what love is. Love Of
Shakespeare on the stage would mean
the success of frequent, ordinary per-
formances in every town large enough
for high school and theatre. Such,
for instance, aus the love of Wagner in
Germany. Or again, of Shakespeare
For it is not only In her own drama
list, but In ours as well, that Germany
can teach us what art.love is. The APP
probation of Shakespeare is far more
general and genuine there than here
The continuousness of his success, de-
spite the frequency and mediocrity of
the performances, despite the lack of
all bigness and eclat, shows that it is
Shakespeare that rs loved But then.

mans do not, like us, get enough OF

THE PAN.AMERlcAN RAILWAY.

1t Is apparent that railway line or
series of lines traversing twelve or fit
teen countries from the United States
to the Argentine Republic, and sending
out lateral branches, only can be
made effective through international
co operation. When each of the coun.
tries interested makes provision for
building to it's borders along the north
and south route, this means ultimate
through communication, and as one
nation approaches the frontiers of a
neighbor nation that neighbor is
given the incentive for construction
within its own limits All the govern
ments follow the plan which obtained
In the United States in constructing
the tranScontinentaI roads-that Is. OF
state aid by means Of land grants,
bonds, and other forms of subsidies,
or outright payments for completed
sections In this way the gradual
uniflcation of disjointed lines will be
obtained. It. may be said that in the
beginning Of 1906 every Central and
every South American country has a
definite policy Of aiding railway con
struction as an integral part Of the
Pan-American system, and some of
them, as in the case of Peru and Bo-
livia, have enacted special legislation.
All of them are sympathetic toward an
intercontinental trunk line because it
comedies with their plans for in
ternal development and external trade.
For the United States the project
Is the commercial corollary to this
Monroe doctrine. The moral influence
makes for the increased stability asd
political progress of the various Latin
American republics and there Is the
trade benefit of industrial development
and enlarged commerce. There is es,
pecially the reciprocal influence of
the Panama Canal. And it may be
added that an educationl good is de-
rived from the enforced knowledge Of

HOW TO DRIVE A HORSE

The manner of driving or l.
has strong bearing on condition, an
we can see every day thousands of ex.
amples to this effect on the streets
anywhere. Given two horses having
the same care food, etc, both physi-
cally able. and performing the same
tasks, yet driven by two different men
one is always fat composed and
tranquil; the other nervous, agitated,
anxious, and in consequence thin
and out OF condition at is the
reason? Nothing but the diffenrent
handling-lack of sympathy, of any
horse sense or horsemans instinct In
the driver of the latter. Why Is the
average livery or riding school
horse haggard of eye anxious of coun-
tenance, almost always thin and worn
Not lack of food nor overworll-just
mental worry and the nervous over
strain of trying to please a lot OF
thoughtless people, most of whom
wholly lack horse sense and are proud
of It. Do what you will in the way
of care. ETC. the handling the horse re
ceiyes has greatly to do with his phys.
tcal welfare. Perfect condition is not
amere matterof so much food, so much
water a warm bed, tight roof. 1t
depends, as does everything else, Ia
life and in our relations with other
men and all beasts, upon the little
things, the unconsidered trifles-ano
lucky is he who has the interest, the
patience, the intuition to investigate
closely, to discern clearly, and to ap
ply intelligently, for he shall reap mis-
reward in countless ways, and In var.
ious associations.-F. NJ Ware in Out

NO PEACE To Be

looking toward a peaceful settlement
Of the question as TO who shall con
troll Zion City and its vast resources
were broken off yesterday. Dowie
rejected Voliya's proposal for arbitra-
ton, made Monday night, on the
grounds that not only would he not
acquiesce in the appointment of Vol.
iva on the board, but that he no long.
or recognized the new leader as a
member Of the church. A bill In
chancery Is to be filed by Dowie pc
titloning that the transfer of the
property of Zion City by Voliva be
declared void According to state
ments of his attorneys and his follow
ers, Dowle will go to Zion City some
time this week. 1t Is declared by the
Dowieites that when the first apos-
tie enters Zion City he will do so as
the head Of the church. Voliva, they
say, will be accommodated.
