it was a mass of seething, mol

face cooled and solidifed, hard
crust imprisoned the glowing in
terror, in the process of cooling
and hardening, began to expand
with such terrific force that the
outer shell, or earth's surface,
burst and VOLCANOES belched forth
lava. In some sections Of the
world this lava contained little
sacks of carbonic gas, which, as
the lava gradually cooled, while
passing through this outer crust,
and under the tremendous pres

pure carbon. Thus do we ac-
count for the birth of God S

ANOTHER BLAZE
Public CoIored School Building
Burned Wednesday Night

Wednesday evening about s
O'Clock the colored school build
ing was totally destroyed by fire.
The building and fixtures are
estimated to be worth about
81, 10000 and is a total loss as
there was no insurance carried
on this property.
The origin of the fire is not
known, but is supposed to be the
work of an incindery. We have
been informed that the assistant
teachers and patrons had been
having some trouble and much
bitter feeling has been the out
come of this.
The Board Of Directors of our
public schools, on account of the
absence of President c. C. Ham
by, have not taken any action on
this, but will probably secure
another building and continue
the school.

THE STOCK LAW


| have been reading letters
from different citizens OF the
county for and against the stock
law. | feel that it is now time
for me to put in. | will intro
duce myself by saying that a law
of this kind would be an outrage
upon the people, especially those
who are not able to own land.
Take the common renter. He
has no land to grow grass on.
/ The stock law would force him to
rent pastures for his stock which
would add another burden to his
already hard way of making a
living.
| think it would cause general
confusion among the farmer or
cause them to lose a great deal
of the crops that is very impor-
tant, especially the stock pea
that natures late in the season.
These are valuable for fatening
hogs, horses and cattle, also the
grass that is so plentiful in the
fall. We give the following rea-
sons for the above assertion:
1st. We would have to have
laws regulating the time for pas
turing the above mentioned crops.
Then comes the trouble. Mr.. A
would not be done picking cotton
neither would Mr.. B, but Mr.. C
would. Mr.. D has not had time
to gather his potatoes. Messrs
E and F have no pea crop and
they don't try to grow anything
of the kind but they are ready to
turn in their stock on the day
designated by law. So he gets
the benefit of his neighbors pea
fields and they can't help them
selves. SO the man that is not
done gathering his crop has to
see it destroyed by his neighbors
stock and can't help himself.
and here it goes, on and on.
Now | want the man who says
that his fence is rotton and no
timber to rebuild with to please
tell me how he is going to fence
his pasture. If you will build a
fence around your farm, such as
you would have to build around
your pasture to keep your stock
in you will never be troubled
with your neighbors stock break
ing on your crops and causing so
much trouble. Will you please
try the experiment?
Iowna tract of land that is
large enough to afford pasture
for my stock if it was all en-
closed but there is a public road
through the center Of it, so |
would be compelled to make
lane or have gates at
each side which would be a last
ing trouble. have talked with
different men that have lived
where the stock law was in
force and not one of them are in
favor of it.
Again. With the imaginary
eye | look into the future and |
see in the rural school districts
where the children gather from
every nook and corner. If. we
have the stock law the principal
part af the land would be fenced
for pasture thus causing the
children to go a greater distance
to school or to climb fences or to
go through gates put up for
their benefit which would often
cause trouble by some thought
less child leaving gates open and
thereby letting the stock out of
the pastures into the growing
crops.
If | had space | could mention
many other troubles that might
grow out of having the stock
law in force here.

PRESCOTT W. c. 7. U.
Interesting Program for Meeting
Friday, March 9th.

The program for the meeting
with Mrs. Hugh Moncrief on
Friday, March 9th, is unusually
interesting and all members are
urged to attend.
This being the anniversary of
our national president, it is but
fitting that we study her life and
work. To extend the circula-
ton of our national organ, the
Union Signal, has been her
chief JOY for years, and so her
great constituency honors her by
sending in as many subscriptions
as possible, thus giving her
Union Signal shower as it
were. Prescott Union has done
fine, but has not come up to her
ability. The writer put in twen-
ty three names but it should
have been at least, double that
number.
AS we read so are we" is an
old adage, and we believe we are
safe in saying that the ones most
interested in his or her church is
the one who reads it's literture,
indeed, who takes the church
paper. Really there is little
hope of building up a stalward
christianity until we can get
those protesting it, to study the
papers devoted to its interest.
Let us economize on every thing
possible, if we have to before we
do on good literature, and especi-
ally on those things that are so
vital to the life of a good cause.
Quotations from Mrs. Stevens
national president.
Peace, Purity, Total, Absti-
nence and prohibition on these
four hang all the law and the
prophets" of the temperance
reform as understood by the w.
c.. T. u.
We cannot place too high a
value on the formative and edu-
cational phases of the temper
ance movement. 1t is not only
the most hopely, but the most
pleasant. Any local union falls
far short of being a model union
if it does not have connected
with it the Young Woman's and
the Loyal Temperance Legion.
Let no one say the spirit of
the crusade has died out. 1t is
maintaining itself today as nev-
er before. 1t is actuating those
who, from pulpit and platform,
proclaim the gospel of total alb
stinence and prohibition. 1t is
inspiring those who seek to
save that which is lost" through
this curse of curses. 1t is guild
ing those who, in many w. c. T.
U. lines of work, are shedding
abroad gospel temperance truths.
O, no, the Crusade spirit will
not die, while there exists the
legalized sale of that which
causes son, and daughters to for
get their mothers and to forget
the Rock of Ages. God help the
National w. c. T. u. to go for
ward with ever increasing pur-
pose, and in the same spirit that
inspired the Crusade mothers,
should be the prayer OF all our
hearts.
Just prior to his death John A.
Mccall, former president Of the
New York Life insurance COM
pany, made the following state
mcnt: Il may not have lived
the life Of a saint, but as | look
back now | cannot recall that |
have ever deliberately harmed a
man, woman or child. have
lived my life as ! saw it and as
lest as could" Mr.. McCalPs
friends say that he died poor.

San Francisco Refugees.

Mr.. and Mrs. Theodore Bratty ar
rived in La Junta Monday morning
direct from San Francisco, being
refugees from the devastation
wrought by the terrible earth
quake in that city last Wednesday
morning. They lost everything and
consider themselves fortunate in
having escaped with the clothes they
had on. Mr.. Bratty was formerly
engaged in the manufacture of Gig
ars in this city in the factory now
conducted by G. Ruegg. He had a
small factory on McAllister street in
San Francisco near the city hall. IL
was blown up with dynamite. Mr..
Bratty saved one lone trunk, but
when an expressman demanded $50
to transport it to the Market street
ferry he decided TO abandon it and
flee for his life. His tales of the horr-
ors of which he was an eye witness are
almost beyond belief Mr.. and Mrs.
Bratty left yesterday morning for
Denver where they expect TO locate.
