A Noted Preacher COMING.

Rev. E. W. Brickert, the pastor
of the Central Christian church of
this city, is rapidly winning his
way into the hearts, not only of the
members of his own church, but
the people of the city with whom
he is thrown in contact. A highly
educated Christian gentleman of
pleasant manner and mein, cour-
teous and polite to all, he makes
friends of all he meets. As a .
minister, he is a pleasant speaker,
a learned scholar, possessed of
considerable oratorical talent and
handles the subject of his discourse
ably and in manner which gives
evidence Of his perfect familiarity
with it. By his earnestness and,
zeal and the happy faculty of tax
ing hold of matters connected.
with church government in the
right way, he has already done a
great work in building up his
church and congregation. Hous-
ton Post.
Rev. Brickert comes to Great
Bend to take charge of the Chris
tian church here. He will preach
there next Sunday, both in the
forenoon and at night, to which
services the public is cordially in
vited.

A PANIC PREDICTED.
New York Nan Makes q Gloomy Pre-.
dictiOn.

New York, Jan. 5.-The speech
made yesterday by Jacob H.
Schiff, head of the banking firm
of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., in the New
Yrok Chamber of Commerce
yesterday has had a terribly
disquieting effect on change.
Mr.. Schiff said, in part, that
unless there is currency reform
a panic beside which former panics
will seem insignificant will
occur" Mr.. Schiff said he did
not regard such a panic as immi-
nent but believed it would come
unless something be done to
remedy the lack of eslastictiy of
the present currency system.
He declared that he did not
favor the plan proposed by Sec
rotary of the Treasury Shaw for
relief of the situation, it being his
opinoin that the secretary's plan
would aid speculation rather than
legitimate business. Mr.. Schiff
favored a currency based on COM
pal er as more helpful to
the general business interests of
the country.
The speech created a sensation
in financial circles and caused a
sharp break in prices on the stock
exchange.

Is There Too Much crowdInQ,

An Idaho pastor has won some
notoriety and possibly fame for
himself by declaring that our
schools are feeding our asylums
and keeping them full. His idea
is that the schools are crowdinp
and pushing the young minds to
exertiOns they are not fitted for.
and they can not stand the strain.
The consequence is a lot of ner-
vous wrecks on the threshold of
life. The idea is not entirely new
not by any means. But, never
theless We are inclined to believe
tire is much more in it than most
people think. However, these
admonitions apply almost entirely
to the city schools. In the country
schools with their shorter terms
and little grading there is little
danger. But in city schools where
the lives of the pupils is more
confined, the warning is not en-
tirely out of place and time.
Youth, joyous youth, should be
mostly given over to play and the
developing of a good, rugged
animal that can later support and
nourish a working brain. A
mature mind will, anyway, take
up the things in a year or two of
hard work, that are usually cram
med into the minds of those from
five to ten or twelve. Hutchinson

THE Big 'POssuH SUPPER.
Old Soldiers and Their Families Have
Great Time. .

The members of Pap Thomas
post G. A. r. and the Ladies'
Circle and their families had a
grand time at their installation
and 'possum supper, Saturday
night.
There was large crowd pres
ent, and the supper, provided by
the Grand Army boys, was eIe-
giant and abundant for all.
Geo. n. Moses was installing
officer for the G. A. X. and Mrs.
Seeber for the Ladies Circle.
Captain Joe Walter was master
of ceremonies, and kent the fes-
tivities going in good shape, with
Miss Blanche Thatcher presiding
at the organ.
Resolutions were passed in
memory of deceased comrads Ogle'
and Blum, also a vote of thanks
to the newspapers for ADVERTISING
the meeting.
Short talks were given by many
of the old boys and the ladies. of
the Circle. George Moses got in
a little late, and was afraid he
was not going to get any of the
'possum. But the boys had provid-
ed for him, and the tale" he told
after he got his share was a tail"
he and the rest will long remem.
Der. Conrad Louie Zimmeht,
shorty" also was favored in an
uncommon way by the frisky old
soldiers.
The meeting will long be re-
membered as one Of the best social
events ever pulled off in Great
Bend.

We are now at Durango. We
ate Christmas dinner with j. S.

DOES HISTORY
REPEAT ITSELF.
America Going Through The Ex.
pefieRcGS Of Old Rome.
AN INTERESTING PARALLEL.

-~A III UilO
Drovers' Telegram of Jan. 4th
makes interesting reading:
Guglielmo Ferrero, the famous
historian of Rome, recently pub
lished in the Figaro parallel be-
tween the present struggle of
President Roosevelt against the
encroachment of the appalling
power of riches in the United
States and that of Augustus, in
the Roman Empire, when it was
rotted to the core by the vice
which follows in the train of
wealth and degrading luxury.
The wonderful pen picture line
BY line traces the struggle of the
president and of the emperor, with
a masterful hand and no one will
attempt to deny the authoritative
ness of Guglielmo Ferrero's con-
illusions. The article shows how,
twenty centuries ago, in the heart
of an immense empire, q man
toiled day and night to solve
problems upon which depended a
great peoples fate. Rome had
eaten of the forbidden fruit. I'm
lawful riches and soft delights had
Sapped vitality. The stole had
given way to the epicurean, and
Augustus, striving to beat down
the social and political power of
money, saw the dissolute sons of
wealth crowded into the senate
by force of the fact that commerce
was. the strength of the state. So
with Roosevelt. The Italian his
tOrian points out that between two
Earring conceptions of state duty
he is calling his people back to
primitive simplicity, while at the
same time aiming at territorial
and commercial expansion.
The article closes with the fol-
lowing paragraph, which speaks
for itself: Only a short time
ago, Roosevelt re-edited for his
Yankees, exactly as Augustus did,
an old speech of Metellus Mace
donicus on augmenting the popu-
latiOn. He frowned down celibacy
sterility, the frequency of divorces
and all the vices and egoisms of
civilization lettering under wealth.
Like Augustus, he has striven to
set up again the powerful SIM
plicity and noble traditions of
the early fathers.
All America admires his discourse.
Yet the president-apostle of told
time frugality and republican
severity must in duty hurry the
cutting Of the Panama canal, which
will double American commerce,
the riches of the towns and the
luxury of social magnates. Like
Rome under Augustus, America
now can support neither its vices
nor their remedies.
