mented by the study Of text books

details of the care Of the sick and

taking this course of training receive
an amount of culture, independent

will help to fit them for any occu-
patton they may choose to take up
after graduation, besides teaching

accurate and developingin them the
power of self control.

Under present laws the railroad and
warehouse commission has full au-
thOrity to reduce the passenger rate
to 2 cents; it can and is ascertaining
the true values of railway properties
within the state and can fix mer-
chandise rates on a basis which will
pay fair dividend on actual capital
invested: it can enforce reciprocal de-
murrage charges without further law
upon that subject 1t is therefore up
to that body to afford the people much
needed relief from the burdens of ex-
tortionate charges by the railroad
companies. When the people awake
to the fact that the railroad and
warehouse commission should repre-
sent them and not the corporations in
rate review hearings they will have
taken long step toward the rectifica-
ton of the Ills from which they suffer.
It is not reasonable to expect that the
governor of the state will have time
or opportunity to study these ques-
lions to sufficient extent to be able
at all times to point out to the rail
way commission their duty in these
cases. 1t is the duty of the commits
sion to attend to these matters; they
are elected for this purpose; it is for
this they draw salaries from the state
and the people should hold them to a
strict accountability for the perform
ance of their duties.

M. E. CHURCH.

The revival meetings at the M. E.
church in which Rev. j. w. Stocks
bury is assisting, are attracting wide
attention. Large congregations are
present every evening, and much in
terest is manifested. Mr.. Stocks
bury is master in his line. His
sermons are eloquent, searching, and
impressive, and yet are delivered with
the utmost tenderness, sympathy, and
fervor. His preaching simplifes the
truth and every one carries away some
thing for his SOULS good. The sing
ing is an inspiring feature. Every
body catches the spirit of song, and
the result is the best of neon grega-
tionnal singing, while in addition,
Mr.. Stokesbury, each night sings a
gospel solo.
Meetings are being held every
afternoon at go. The evening serv-
ices beginning promptly at Z 80 Mr..
Stokesbury will remain here all of
next week, and we urge the public
generally to hear him.
Sunday he will deliver the follow
ing themes:
Morning The Power of Faith
Evening "The Power of Love-"

FOUND. The LEAK
Lighted Match Reveals Leak
in Gas Plant.
ALSO ExPLODEs GAS TANK.
Damage is Small but Noise and Fright
are Tremendous

On Monday night the gasoline tanks
in the rear of P. D. Mcmahon resi-
dence exploded with great violence,
shaking the windows of all residences
iii the vicinity and making a deafen-
ing report which was heard over the
greater part of the city.
There were two tanks of the vola-
tile fluid, but strange to say but one
exploded The fire alarm was sounded
and the fremen waded bravelY through
the mud and slush but before their
arrival the flames which were confined
to the pit in which the tanks were
placed, were extinguished with liberal
applications of snow.
The explosion was of sufficient
violence to blow the covering of the
pit about forty feet and the force of
the conclusion was felt in all the
|neighboring houses. For several days
Mr.. Mcmahon was convinced that his
gas plant was leaking and on Monday
night, just before retiring he renewed
his explorations. He had a lighted
match which he held at some distance
from the pipes, however. Suddenly
he noticed thin tongue of flame
which had jumped from the match tt
the leaky pipe. He attempted to ex'
tinguish this by blowing it out, but
this served to drive the flame bach
into the pipe and almost instantly thu
explosion followed. 1t seemed as j:
the house was blown to pieces, ant
both Mr.. and Mrs. Mcmahon wer,
badly frightened. The noise of tn,
explosion brought neighbors quickl.
to the scene and the fire was sool
distinguished without any extensive
damage being done.

WILL SELL A GOLD MINE
Denison Investors Have Prospect Of
Making Good on Mining Venture.


Some time ago number of Denison
men invested with Mr.. L. j. Carter in
gold mine in New Mexico. The
mine. is called the "Copper Gulch"
and they now have the pleasing news
that sale has about beenl completed
which will give each Denison man
about $4,000 for the $500 invested. The
lucky stockholders will not talk for
publication however as they say
there are too many slips between the
mine and the trouser pocket. We sin
cerely hope they will win out in their
venture, for surely Denison ought to
reap some reward for the thousands OF
dollars it has sunk in various mining
projects.

Obituary..


Mrs. Phoebe j. Dickinson, sister of
Mrs. S. S. Wilkinson and cousin of
Mr.. Chas. Tabor of this city, died on
Friday February 18th, in Adrian,
Michigan, at the home of her daughter.
Mrs. Robert S. Moreland. Mrs. Dick
inson was a frequent visitor in Deni-
son at the Tabor home and was known
to number of our people. She was
in her eighty second year and her
long life was filled with good deeds
and with love and helpfulness to
others.
To us she was known as Aunt
Jane" She was one of the perfect
women of the old school. Her frail body
was the home of as pure soul as
ever dwelt on earth. She was
fairly radiant with cheerfulness and
happiness and unselfish devotion for
others. Her mind never lost its bril- .
liancy or its activity: she was possess
ed of that high sense of humor which
gave roseate hue to all her life and
which helped her to bear those
griefs and sorrows which four score
years must know. To us her death is
the sevelilg of another link which
bound US TO that generation of which
our mother was a part. She was one
of trio of good women whose sweet
and noble lives have been benedic-
ton and an inspiration to US. We f. ell
that it was glad day for our mother
when Aunt James gentle spirit APP
peared before the Heavenly throne
and that they are now living over
again the childhood days in old Yer
mont, watching with tenderest care
j over those upon whom they lavished
their love in days gone-by and wait
ing with patience born of Joy ane
certain knowledge for the other glad
reunions of eternity. May the bless
ing of her life of love rest upon hel
I. dear ones for evermore
