THE ILLINOIS ISSUE
Novel Anti-SalOOn Lesson

The Tennessee Anti-Saloon League sends copy
Of program prepared and sent out for the use Of
Sunday Schools part Of the exercises the Worlds
Temperance Sunday, November 20, 1908.
There scripture texts songs and recitations all
calculated to awaken and foster spirit of aggressive
antagOniSm to the saloon.
One feature of this program, if properly carried OUT
should not fail to be impressive. Fifteen children march
in and take their places, each carrying, in such
to conceal it from view, letter of the alpha
bet On taking their places they all say in concert
''The Saloon Must Co. Then, by one, they repeat
the following
L. Because it makes little children go hungry and
Because it bushes their laughter and banishes their
JOY.
g. Because it denies them chance in life
t. Because it changes love to hate and kindness to
cruelty.
s. Because it robs many home of its happiness.
g. Because it breaks many mothers heart
T. Because it is in the pathway of every boy
s. Because it is to the happiness of every
girl
g. Because it makes drunkards and criminals
TO- Because it fills the poor house and jail.
IL Because it is a man-trap and death-trap
r. Because it destroys both body and SOUL
13 Because it is the enemy of all that good and the
friend of all that is bad
a. Because it is a sin against God and crime against
humanity.
15 Because the Of God is on it.
Then the last is given the children suddenly
hold up and present to view in their proper order the
letters they carry, which spell out the motto, 1.-The Sa
loon Must Co.

Timothy CulIinan, of Harrison,
Has Narrow Escape from
Being Killed.
WHIZZED BY HIS
HEAD ON INVESTIGATION
He Heard Noise in Bar-room and
Opened Door to See
What 1t Was.

Two saloons were entered by burglars
early today in Harrison and in one
place the intruders fired a shot at the
proprietor. who discovered them. This
was al the saloon of Timothy Cullinan,
at North Fourth and William streets.
The men entered there by a rear win
dow and Cullinan. who sleeps in a room
in the rear of the saloon, heard them
moving about and, thinking it was per-
haps the bartender opening up, called
out and, hearing no reply, opened a
door leading into the saloon, and the
next moment a bullet sank in the
woodwork close to him. The burglars
disappeared and when Cullinan made
an investigation he found that IS had
been taken from the cash register.
The other place entered was the sa-
loon of Edward Lavan, II North Third
street, where entrance was effected in a
manner similar to the other place. All
the burglars got in Lavan's was forty
cents and some cigarettes.

IN a manner that seemed entirely satfs-
factory to the audience. Although it
is familiar TO most t-heatregoers a word
concerning the plot of the famous old
melodrama may serve to refresh the
memory.
The central figures are the two or
phans, Louise and Henrietta, who made
their homes with their uncle until he,
being very Door, sent them TO a wealthy
friend Of his in Paris. A French no.
hleman hears Of their coming and Of
the beauty of Henrietta and kidnaps
her. Her sister, who is blind, is all
lowed to 60 astray in The streets of
Paris. Louise falls into the hands of
rufhans, while Henrietta has her trou-
bles with the nobility. From then On
the audiences feelings are constantly
narrowed by the sad plight of the sis
tors.
Despite the ~unfavorable weather a
large audience turned out to see the
play.
