EDITOR OF SOUTHERN X-RAY AND INDRPEND-
ENT EVANGELIST LEAVES WITHOUT
SAYING GOODBYE
FORMER COMMANDER OF AMERICAN SALVATION ARMY POST AL
ALLEGED TO HAVE REFUSED MINISTER
WHO CHALLENGED ACTS OF HIS PAST LIFE
WHEREABOUTS ARE UNKNOWN

Rev" Wallace Harvey Kegel Oh
Keogel or by whatever name he may
be called, hath departed for another
cline leaving some of his local credi
tors sadder but wiser men. Mr.
Kegel did not bid any one adieu nor
announce the place of his futurc
home. In fact, he didn't tell anybody
that he was going way or even init
mate that he contemplated such a
thing. And further nobody knows
where to find the aforesaid Kegel. for
by this time he may not be Kegel a,
all, but somebody else, for It's said
that he changes his name oftener than
the average man changes his skin.
Mr.. Kegel came to the hospitable
city of Columbia some six months ago
as the commander of the local Ameri-
can Salvation Army Post, but after a
few months here he resigned" ac-
cording to his own statement and en-
tered evangelistic work, and also
launched the Southern X-Ray," Al
monthly religious publication. The
first issue of this lyfas printed and
circulated and it isl said that a large
number Of yearly paid-in-advance sub
scriptions were obtained. If these
don't think they got their whole fifty
cents worth in the first number they
are doomed to disappointment for the
second issued has never appeared, al |
though the matter was in type and
ready for publication when the Rev.
Mr.. Kegel decided to change his Iocs-
ton.
When Mr.. Kegel came to Columbia |
he bore good credentials and being a |
man of good address and pleasing |
manners soon acquired the confidence
of many of the church people, Hell
was especially fortunate in obtaining
the good will of the officers and mem
bers of the First Pres byterian church,
a church that is always open 10
worthy members of the Salvation
Army He preached several times in
that church and among the prominent
features of the first issue of his paper
we're letters from the leading Pres \
byterians commencing him as a
worthy man of God and good
preacher.
Mr.. Kegel also ran, in connection
with his other work, a mission FOR
ALLEN women and in this work he was
by a Miss Noble, who has
llso departed hence and without no
ice. Reports of the work of this de-
,artment were not always compliment
airy and it was probably due to these !
umors that the work in these fields I
vas was abandoned SO hurriedly, al
hough Mr.. Kegel had announced in the J
aper he issued that Columbia wourI '

Col. Hardy read a report in which
was set forth contributions to the
amount of $1,736.0O. This amount
does not include the base ball fund,
! which will amount to $500 or $780, It
is estimated that in addition to this
amount it will take $500 more to com
plete the work. A number of the
citizens present when looking over the
list raised their contributions. some
doubling the amounts and some three
times. This, however, has not beel
added to the total, as it was not pos
sible to do SO without rearranging the
list, which will be done at once
The chair was empowered to name

IA TOILETTE BILL
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
STIRS CONGRESS
Law Enforcement and Railroad Reg
ulation Sentiment Greatly Stlmm-
lated by ROOsevelts Fearless Criti-
cisms of the Corporatlons-PeOple
Want just Railroad Rates.

John E. Lathrop, who is now
Washington correspondent for the
Oregon Daily Journal, writes as fol-
lows of the effect of the presidents
recent message on law enforcement
and railroad legislation:
An immediate effect of the presi-
dents message is to make possible the
passage through the senate of Sena-
tor La Follette's bill authorizing the
interstate commerce commission to
investigate and determine the physi-
cal value of all railroad properties.
President Roosevelt recommended
this action In his regular message,
but there was an understanding
among senators that nothing should
be done. Now, however, there has
been the same alignment of forces in
the committee on interstate COM
merce that existed when the rate bill
was under consideration, and a ma
jority of the committee Is In favor Of
the measure.
AT a meeting of the committee Sem
ators Dollver and Cullom and the
five democratic senators declared in
favor of taking up La Follette's bill
and hearing the senator In advocacy
of its passage.
Assuming that this division will
continue the committee will stand
seven to six in favor of action.
Opponents of the bill are Senators
Elkins, Aldrich, Kean, Foraker, Clapp
and Crane, all leading reactlonaries,
with the exception of Clapp, who may
go over to the other side.
This act would afford basis for
the establishment of railroad rates,
and at the same time determine what
percentage of the stock and bond in
debtedness Of railroads is based upon
actual values. Railroads, whose cap
ital stock has been heavily watered.
will naturally oppose the proposition
to the last extremity.

storm in the history of the Old Do

night of February s, 1857. and con-
tinued for nearly three days. 1t was
given the name Of Cox's snow, owing
to the fact that DR.. Joseph Cox. OF

LOOKING WESTWARD.
MANY HONIEsEEKERs
INQUIRE FOR LAND
Idaho Immigration Bureau Tells OF
Hundreds of People Writing for
Information-one Colony OF 1900
Persians Looking Toward Idaho.

Increasing interest In the west Il
shown in every report received ant
the following from the Boise Capita
News, regarding interest in the state
Of Idaho, applies to every western
state. The News says:
There has been a marked change
in the inquiries received at the office
of the state immigration commits
sioner in the past two weeks, both as
to the locality from which they come
and ,as to the subject matter
The inquiries during the past two
weeks have been coming in great
numbers from the large cities in the
east and are from people who want
government land for a homestead.
The. homeseekers have in a num-
Der of instances organized themselves
into colonies, and write to the state
immigration commissioner, Colonel
Miller, asking him to locate the col
ony in some portion of the state
where a sufficient number of home
steads can be secured for the various
| members of the colony. These col
nies are composed of from five to 15
families.
Heretofore" said Colonel Miller,
"a great many injuries have been re-
celved from people who already own
ed farms or other property, but de-
sired to sell and locate in Idaho. In
my judgment" he continued. ''the
change is due to the depression that
has been experienced"
In regard TO the 1900 Persian Chris
tians who work in mines in Pennsyl-
vania and for whom a missionary de-
sired to secure homes in Idaho, Col
onel Miller said that they wanted too
much, that they wanted the state %
pay their way to Idaho and give them
land upon which to make their
homes.
In connection with industrial statis-
tistics, many inquiries are being sent
out daily to the various industrial es-
tablishments of the state to ascer-
tain the volume of business done dur
ing the past two years. OF the num-
Der of inquiries sent out recently, 210
were to blacksmiths in the state, and
1O5 to newspapers.
The inquiries to newspapers will
be quite an interesting list when filled
out and returned to the state immi-
grafton commissioners office, the pa
per being required to state with what
political party it is affiliated, the num-
ber of isues and circulation.
This data" said Deputy Commits
sioner Hale, "will be published in the
next report and will also be kept on
hand to assist in answering inquiries.
We are having books bound, which
will be ready in a few days and in
which will be recorded the statistics
gathered in regard to the divers in
dustrial establishments in the state.
The total volume of business of in
dustrial establishments for the past
two years will be shown in these rec
ords which will contain much inter-
esting statistical information"

SLEPT THIRTEEN DAYS.
Strange Case of n Spokane Physician,
Who Attributes Phenomenon TO a
Blood ClOt on Brain.


Blood ClOt on Brain.
An awakening as complete as II was
instantaneous, after being uncon-
scious for 13 days, is the remarkable
experience of DR.. w. A. Egbert, a
general practitioner in this city Sun
day, January 10, DR.. Egbert went to
sleep on leather couch in his office
SCOUT 10 o'clock at night. and on
Saturday. February /, almost two
weeks later, he awakened in a ward
OF st. Luke's hospital at o'clock in
the afternoon. HIS has now returned
to his practice, says the Spokesman
Review.
In explaining his own case, DR..
Egbert said: THE only thing that
can offer asian explanation is that
blot clot was formed somewhere in
the base OF the brain. which had to
be taken up by gradual absorption.
/ am not addicted to the use of drugs
of any kind or to drinking, About 10
days before l went to sleep I had
slight cold and my heart action was
not strong and ! took a regular dose
of nitro-strychnia, such as a doctor
would give any one, as heart slim
ulant. The night that / went to sleep
I took a dose of aconite. too, but 1t
was small dose and could not have
had such an effect
81 have not inquired into the case
fully myself, as | do not feel that
want to cogltate over It too much. DR..
d. c. Newman found me on the floor,
/ understand, and II II was blood
clot 1t must have been there before /
fell from the couch to the floor. The
fall is only short one. from a heav-
fly padded leather couch onto a rug,
and could not have been the cause of
the blood clot in the base OF the
brain. 1t could only have been the
result Of a muscular contraction.
"Dr. Newman tells me that 1t had
none of the appearance of a hypnotic
state and the eyes were perfectly nat
ural, there was no contraction of the
cornea as there would be IN hypnosis
or II the coma was the result of
strychnine or morphia l was to all
intents an automaton. They gave me
food at the hospital, as l found from
the chart. My muscles were limp;
when they would lift hand 1t would
drop back like dead weight"
