The sultan's army suggests a regu.

may see a sample OF these monkey.
like soldiers at the parade of the So

ba square at IL a. m. A battalion
marches past in double column and
salutes the governor, who goes frcm
his palace to the mosque.
All these soldiers arc poorly
equipped. Their uniforms have lost
their color and their trousers are too
short, showing their legs. which shine
as If they had been covered with shoe
polish. However, 1t would be a mis-
take to think that this gang Of ragged
ruffians could not stand a fight. Fanat.

their contempt Of death Is absolute.

ONE MAN NOT A
Orators Compliment to Town Called
Forth Warm Protest.

Two interesting stories are told of
the late Gen. w. H. l.. Barnes, of Cali
fornia. One concerns a campaign
speech that the general made in Red
ding. Being a diplomat as well as an
orator, Barnes, who had not been In
Redding for a decade or more, sought
to say something fiattering about the
towns growth. When he reached the
filling in stage of his speech, he said:
Il want to congratulate the citizens of
Redding On the wonderful progress of
their beautiful city. When l was last
here, not many years ago. had to put
up at a ramshackle hotel, with poor
accommodations and badly cooked
food. What do l find to-day? A mag
nificent ~caravansary with a cuisine
worthy of a metropolis" The compli-
ment won applause, and after the
meeting was over many of the audi
tors crowded to the platform to shake
hands with the speaker. One old fell
low, with a pioneer beard, waited pa
tiently for his turn. When he reached
the general he calmly put his hands
behind him, shook his head angrily
and blurted out: "All | want to say
is that you're a white-headed old falsi-
fer. | kept that hotel"
The other story deals with the spe-
cial session of the legislature called
to fill the vacancy caused by the
failure of the solons of 1899 to elect
a United States senator. Barnes
wanted the honor, but the compromis-
ers passed him by and picked out
Thomas R. Bard, of Ventura. The
night of Bards' election Gov. Gage was
reused from his bed by a caller who
refused to wait until morning. Gage
openedfthe door and there stood Gen.
Barnes. Governor" said the general
solemnly,| you called this session to
fill a vacancy. Instead of filling a va
cancy You have created one" And
then without another word the general
stalked away.

STATE AS LIQUOR SELLER.
An Experiment in GwaIia, West Aus.
tralia, Results Successfully.

The West Australian state govern
ment's experiment in liquor business
control at the mining center of Gwalia
has managed to live through criticism,
and now appears to be a firmly estab-
hshed' institution.
Within the last few days the new
chairman of committees of the senate.
Senator Pearce, has come forward
with first hand testimony. He had
stayed a week end at the state hotel
at Gwalia, and has now told a public
meeting in this city how he found pre-
vailing conditions, says a Melbourne
letter to the London Chronicle.
Senator Pearce found that the a
ager of the hotel was paid a good SAL
airy and had no interest in adulterat-
ing drink or trading during prohibited
hours. The hotel was strictly for
public convenience, and there was no
more incentive to make men drink
beer than there vas for a station mas
ter alta railway station to sell tickets.
The result was that there was no sign
of drunkenness about the town.
When a man was disposed to drink
more than he could afford or was good
for him there was machinery for eXer-
cising control over him All that had
to be done was for the mans wife or
relative to speak to the manager Of
the hotel, and then the barman re-
ceived instructions that he was to be
served with only two long beers a
day-one when going on to his mining
Shift and one coming off. The min
ers called this being placed under the
Dog act" No one. however, outside
the complainant, the manager, or the
barman need be informed as to who
was on the list-except, said Senator
Pearce with a sly smile, when the pro-
scribed man himself lectured his fell
lows on their disgusting intemper-
ance in calling for more than two
drinks a day. On Sunday not a drink
was sold or asked for.
The Gwalia State hotel, after pay
ing all expenses and supplying a
splendid table and excellent bedroom
accommodation, nov cleared a profit
Of $4,000 per annum out of pure
lauors. The manager regarded HIM
self as a guardian Of the people, who
would not give them poison to drink
nor allow them to abuse the privilege
of obtaining pure liquor.
The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1907-06-07

Did you ever stand in the golden
sunlight of a warm day with your
eyes turned upon a sheet of fly
paper? If 80 you may have
noticed how when one fly adheres
to the sticky surface, it's compan-
ions, instead of profting by the
horrible warning, Immediately
buzz down and go to destruction
in the same manner, and in a little
time there are hundreds in the
throes of death. They are fools,
to be sure, and so are men. Men see
their associates caught in the nets
of vice. There are examples and
warnings all about human beings,
but they treat them as lightly as dc
flies and step down to death just
as insanely.
The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1907-06-07

"a woman holds Il higher place
Than Il king upon his throne;
He rules his kingdom by his power,
She by her love alone.
Earth holds no better thing than this;
No greater power for good.
The greatest gift God can bestow.
A noble womanhood.
This Is the work he gives to them,
To comfort. guide and bless:
To drop on bruised and aching hearts
The balm of tenderness
Better To be a queen Of home.
Loving and brave and true;
To live that all may find this world
Better because OF you.
Better to kiss a little face,
Dimpled and pure and sweet;
Better to guide. with owing hands.
The little. stumbling feet;
BeIterto feelthe tender clasp
OF soft arms around your neck,
Than to sit upon the proudest throne
With nations at your feet"

THREW AWAY DICE
coLoRED SOLDIERS IN A FIT OF
PENITENCE.
Severe Storm at Sea Caused lmpromp.
tn Revival Meeting in Earnest
No More Crap Shooting
During That Voyage.

Five hundred pairs OF dice are lying
on the bottom of the Atlantic ocean
somewhere off the east coast of the
United States, unless the fishes have
swallowed them and carried them
away, says the Kansas City Star. The
spotted cubes were thrown overheard
by the negroes Of a Kansas regiment
during a violent storm at sea-, the sac
rifice having been prompted by peni-
tence. 1t was while the negro regi-
ment was on board the ship Vigilance
en- route to Cuba in September, 1898,
that a storm converted a score OF
b%oisterous crap games into q fervent
religious meeting.
The regiment went from Topeka to
New York city and from there sailed
for Cuba. There was no sleep on
board the Vigilance the first night out.
Il is said that practically all Of the ne
grOes who were not Frustrated with
se~asickness were shooting craps. The
scene is described as one of mingled
suffering and excitement. The dis
tressed pleaded for quiet and rest,
uuL WcrC uulecuSu ny tAo uOioy 6dui-
blers.
Above the cries and means of the
suffering, such language as this could
be heard in different parts Of the yes
sell.
IT'S 'leven an / know it," Shoot
de money" Didn't / get a coon?'
Little Dick"
Late at night while the games were
running high a violent storm broke
suddenly upon the sea. When the wind
struck the Vigilance a rudder was
broken and she whirled round and
round and then dipped down into the
hollow of a mighty wave. The shock
was unexpected and ina moment the
soldiers were experiencing all Of the
horrors of a storm at sea. The ne
groes grabbed up thedice and loose
change and huddled together like cat
tie, some of them moaning and Others
too frightened to utter a sound.
The storm ragged for an hour, the
soldiers thinking that every moment
would be the last. Fortunately there
was a negro preacher or board, the
Rev. John L. Waller. It was for hin
to rise to the occasion. He gathered
a crowd Of negroes around him ant
spoke thus:
Brethren, the Lord sent this storm
on the heads of sinful crap shooters
II we want to be saved let's pray"
Then he dropped down on his knee
and his voice was heard praying allow
the noise of the storm.
The soldiers Joined with the preach
er in his prayer. In a short tim,
lamentations, moan and promises
could be heard OF every hand. It wa
a revival meeting in earnest. Nearl.
every I'M OF the 800 soldiers wa
either singing or praying. The Who'll,
regiment was converted" in q yer.
few minutes.
But the rough . continued. Tn,
colored preacher felt that something
further must be done An inspiration
