THE MESSENGER OF JOY

THE MESSENGER OF JOY
You talk about trouble,
An won't understand
That joys just a step
From the troublesome land!
He's there with his fiddle,
An leadin' the band,
An he'll gibe 20 the top o the mornin!
You talk about trouble
AS If it was all
That comes to the folks
On this sky-roIlin' ball.
When joy plays a dance tune
From springtime to fall
An gibes you the top o. the mornin'I
Sometimes when old Trouble
Is blockin' the way
A feller can fright him
BY shoutin' "Hooray!"
While darkness. a dancin'.
Swings corners with Day,
An gibessyou the top O. the mornin'!

 mission.

Washington, Sept 1s.-General Mac Kenzie, chief of engineers. Representa- tive Burton, president of the interna- tional waterways commission. and oth- CT members of the commission. includ- ing Director Newell. of the government reclamation service. Senator Bankhead of Alabama. Clifford Pinchon, chief of the forestry. and pr. W. J. McGee will in a day or two board a big lake ore carrier at Lorain. Ohio, and spend three days in voyage to Duluth.
 Several members of the commission are acquainted with the Great Lakes section and it is probably a subject with which the commission will have to deal in connection with the diversion of the lake waters into the Mississippi system, if the great project for which the commission was created is to be realized, and they have decided to take this cruise.
 After arriving at Duluth, the party will go by rail to St Paul where the commission will board the big govern ment snag boat Mackenzie and descend the Mississipp Riiver to Keokuk, Iowa, leaving St. Paul on September 27. running only during the day time and arriving at Keokuk, October 1.
 At that point the Mississippi River Commissions inspector boat Mississippi will be awaiting President Roosevelt and the commission will also tie up until the President and his party ar rives and boards the boat october 27 for the trip to Memphis.

POSTPONED EVENTS TO BE GIVEN
 THIS AFTERNOON.
Three Mile Contests Scheduled For vandfver Park With Fast Horses Entered in Each-Large
 Crowd Expected.

The very excellent card arranged. by the Mcntgomery Matinee Club Tor last Friday. but which was postponed on account of rain, will be presented this afternoon, and lovers of light harness events have long been looking forward to inc event. The racing will begin at Vandiver Park promptly at o'clock
 The heats will be best three out of five, and with three events on the card will afford a full afternoons sport max ing at least nine mile trials, and prob ably many more, as the horses In each class are so evenly matched that It IS not expected that a single race Will be won in straight heats.
 More than the usual interest centers In the running of today's card, for the reason that horses that have, shown the way during the summer are expect ed to do so again, while. owners ana admirers of those which have been ric- tLp1s of track mishaps, one way or an = other, believe that the old story or the best one didn't win will be demonstrat- ed. , Following are the entries:
 Class A, mile pace-Jack Wenber. webber; Imp Pilsener. Toole; Katie Wilke, Wilke; Gibson Boy, Gibson; Black York, T. J. Britt.

 Class C. mile pace-Sharp, Sharp; Tom T., Teague; Mary Direct, l.; Ii. McCurdy; Fauxpass. W. D. McCurdy.
 From this card it can be seen at glance that the best blue blood of the focal equine colony are to parade past the post and try for honors. There is nrori1ise of a large crowd, as there is no baseball or other amusement to detract.

A TEMPERANCE BILL
CONGRESSMAN CRAIG OF ALABAMA
 WILL INTRODUCE IT.
District of Columbia is on Eve of Prohibitfoh Campaign and Als-
 bama CongressOan Will
 Probably Lead Fight.

Washington. Sept. 19-(Special. )-- The temperance crusaders read with much glee. in one of the Washington newspapers today. a statement that Congressman Craig of the Fourth Ala barna District intends introducing a bill at the coming session prohibiting the issue of licenses by the United States for the sale of whiskey in 'dry" counties.
 The anti-saloon organization counts on MT. Craig as one of their champions in their fight to be made to prohibit the sale of intoxicating drinks in the Dis ! trict of Columbia.
 Statements were published here to- day showing that the organs of the liquor trade are becoming very much alarmed over the prohibition move ment. A number of large and profit able breweries are operated here, and on the Virginia side of the Potomac, and any number of wholesale wine and liquor establishments are in business in Washington, while the saloons in the District number 700.
 The liquor organizations are stirring up their people and warning them that they may expect big fight when Con- gross meets. In their publications. they slap at the South by declaring that the race issue Is responsible for the prohibition wave in that section.

EMBEzzLER REINsTATED.
Charges Dismissed in Court and Gets
 Old PoHitiOn Back.

Chicago, Sept. 19.-William F. Ravens, an 1S-year -old messenger, who ran away to North Dakota with $5,000 belonging to a Chicago packing com pany. to make a home for his 17-year- old sweetheart. was declared in Judge Barnes court today to be honest, de- spite his act, and will not be prose- cuted. Instead, he will be given his old position with the packing com pany.
 Ravens disappeared last May, two weeks ,after entering the firms em- ploy. with checks and cash entrusted to him to deposit in a bank. Shortly afterward Lillian A. Hearn. to whom Ravens had been paying attentions. was tracked to Flesher, N. D. where the boy had bought a farm, horses, cattle. chickens and lumber for a home.
 Before being brought back to Chi cago Havens assisted the packers rep resentative's to sell what he had bought. The latter were impressed with his cleverness fin forcing bar gin by which the firm secured the re- turn of practically the entire amount stolen and asked that the charge against Ravens be dismissed. The girl was sent to a convent.
