and devoted companion, and three children
have been born to them, all of whom are liv-
ing We have suggested that Mr. Clarkes
scepticsm was partially inherited. This
statement is justified by the fact that his
father was an atheist before him. Mr.. Clarke
is also an atheist. He has been a letter carrier
in the employ of Uncle Sam since 1888. Ear
ly in life he decided that the Christian
ligion and its allies, were humbugs, and pur
suing honest investigation he soon an
nounced himself an atheist, step, which he
now declares, he has never had any cause to
regret His education was extremely limited,
but he has been close and inveterate reader
and student and possesses that happy faculty
of retaining and assimilatng that which he
reads. He is now Secretary Treasurer of the
Baltimore Free Discussion Society, an As
ISOLATION of Freethinkers, where debates are
INDUCED in upon all subjects pertaining to
the welfare, progress and development of the
race. Through his official relations with this
society he has come in personal contact with
all sorts of lecturers and teachers, including
Mormons, Hindoos, Agnostics, Adventists,
Single-Taxers, Theosopists, Socialists, etc. It
is enough to say that he enjoys the full con-
fidence and respect of his neighbors and all
who know him. The greatest compliment that
was ever paid him came from the son-in-law
of Baltimore preacher, who told him that
an earnest Atheist was more desirable as a
citizen and neighbor than most Christians"
Referring to this incident Mr.. Clarke de-
cares that it was induced by the fact of
some reference being made to a man who
was guilty of what the church calls back
sliding" and who had been praying to God
to keep him from drinking liquor and after
a total abstinence of years had lapsed into
the habit again. In his comment upon the
subject, Mr.. Clarke says: Christians did not
used to talk that way"
Readers of the Blade will be pleased to
know that Mr.. Clarke is one Of the Blades
contributors and that he will be heard from
through its columns at almost regular in
teryals

JOHN F. CLARKE

That traits of individual character and in
tellectual temperament are really transmitted
by heredity is an almost universally admitted
fact, the philosophy underlying prenatal in
fuences finding exemplifcation even in bib
lical days, and there is no more striking
evidence than may be found in the subject
of this sketch, John f. Clarke, of Arlington,
Maryland, the Photographic reproduction con-
stituting our frontispece in this issue.
1t has often been said that 'blood is thicker
than water" and while we are not capable
of explaining this peculiar feeling yet in
the heart of every Kentuckian there runs
thrill when learns that he is dealing with
and writing another Kentucl<;an Be it
known then, that John F. Clarke, although
a resident of Maryland, is Kentuckian by
birth and heredity. He was born in the city
of Louisville and first saw the light of day
on the banks of the Ohio River, June 2, 1858,
and is, therefore, approaching his fftieth
milestone. Still in the vigor and prime of an
active and useful life his many friends fondly
anticipate that he may continue for another
blows at the curse of orthodox, Christian
suPeistiIloh' TOT tne past twenty years ne
has been volumnous writer and his effu-
sions and criticisms have found space in the
different representatives of the American
press. Not only have the columns of Free
thought papers zen open to him but he has
been accorded the privilege of the daily papers
and in them he has vented his convictions
upon Atheism, Socialism, Woman's Suffrage,
Anti militarism, and Court decisions have
come under his notice and observation.
He first attracted widespread attention
through the publication of his press comment
upon the Boer war and Religion. This letter
was made the. subject of wide comment
Through its publication he managed to open
up a wide correspondence, much of which is
retained to this day. Because of that effort
he was made the recipient of The Blue Grass
Blade, and other Freethought publications,
which have, from that time, been favored
with productions of his brain and pen. Hap

PLY Mr.. Clarke is among the most frequent
have been highly appreciated by all our
readers. He is peculiarly humorous and can
drive an argument home with remarkable eff
feet. His style is peculiarly of an individual
and original type. Since his closer identif-
cation with the Freetbought movement he
has openly engaged in an active propaganda
and spreads the gospel of great Joy" by
giving away copies of the Freethought papers
whenever and wherever an opportunity pre-
sents itself. In all walks of life, through in
iividual effort and organized labor he has
met and talked with thousands of materialists
One firm rule of his life has been never to
use tobacco or ardent spirits, and yet, unless
church people misrepresent him, he is made
the subject of more prayers every day than
any other citizen of Maryland. Religious
zealots constantly inform him that he is
being subjected to their prayers, both pub
lie and private, and will continue to be so
subjected, until a conversion to the super
stition of orthodox Christianity has been
wrought.
On the other hand he is being congratulated
almost every day of his life that he does not
permit himself to be made the dupe of an
erroneous religious belief, or system. Yet,
bigotry is ever active and alert Soon after
he had settled in Maryland, especially in
Arlington, now about ten years ago, the bigots
wanted to cause his arrest because he worked
about his home place on Sunday, but his
example spread for they saw that no harm
befel him for attending to his flowers and his
little garden on Sunday, and now many of
his neighbors are doing the same thing and
no adverse comment is made
AS previously stated, Mr.. Clarke was born
June 2, 1858. His father was Captain John D.
Clarke who was gallant confederate soldier,
an ardent supporter of the Lost Cause, and
sign painter. The childhood of
Mr.. Clarke was spent in Kentucky and Geor-
gia. His father died in 1874 when he left this
section and went to Washington, D. c. Two
years later, or in 1875, he moved to Baltimore,
Maryland. In 1881 he was married to Miss
Fannie L. Billmeyer, who has been constant

Rodri- gues with two horses which he was trying to lead up on the porch in front of the house, presumably intend ing to stable them within. One was attired in a heavy freighting harness, the other being partly disrobed for bed and wearing only a collar and bridle. The horses were put in En- signs stable and the man was put in the municipal ice box.

In Gila county there is a republican club with over 300 names on the roll, and what these 500 workers will do on election day is foregone conclusion to all who know the energy of these miners in the Gila county capital. It will be a Cameron landslide from top to bottom.

T. E. Pollock Fellow Townsman of Candidate Speaks Highly of His Ability.

T. F. Pollock, one of the leading business men of northern Arizona was in the city this morning on his way from Flagstaff to Douglas says the Bisbee Miner where he has recently become interested in the First National Bank with B. A. Packard. Unlike the latter. MT Pollock is not a worshipper at the shrine of Marcus Aurelius Smith but a staunch admirer of his fellow townsman Ralph Cameron and hard worker in his behalf.
 It's all Cameron in the north, :" said Mir Cameron to a Miner repre- sentative this morning. Smith won't have 9 show in any of the northern counties, and in the counties where Ralph is best known, CocOninO. Apache and Navajo, Cameron will get an overwhelming majority. Up in that country we have known Cam eron for years and we believe in him. He is a man of his word. and Ari zonians need not be afraid that he won't deliver the goods if he is sent to congress. He isn't much of an orator. but he has never started any thing that he could not finish and that's the kind of a man we want in Washington"

 things as tearing his hair and scratch

 PREPARING FOR ORANGE PACKING-It is expected that the machinery in the new orange pack ing house will be fully installed in a few days and the place opened for business some time this week.

 HERDERS WANTED-The United States civil service commission an nounces an examination on October 2S. 1908. to secure eligibles from which to make certification to fill a vacancy in the position of herder. at s7S0 per annum. at the Western Navajo agen- frfr, similar qualifications as they may oc- cur. The duties of this position re- quire a knowledge of sheep and sheep breeding, but large experience with cattle is not necessary, since there are few on the reservation. The duties and life of the herder will be hard. for counting the sheep and familiarizing himself with the ranges, over most of which there are no roads, will be no light task. He will have to ride over the whole reservation. camping where ever night oevrtakes him. and must be able to pack his own animals. No educational test will be given. and it will not be necessary for applicants to appear at any place for eXamina- ton. Age limit, 20 years or over on the date of the examination. Per sons named in the applications as ref erences will be communicated with. Unless answers are received from these persons within three weeks from the date of sending the communication the application will not be accepted for the particular vacancy for which this examination is to be held, but if re- ceived within six weeks it will be con- sidered for any vacancy which may arise in the future requiring similar qualifications. The applications of those persons whose references fail to answer within six weeks will be can celed.

THE LAND OF WEAK KIDNEYS

It is admitted that Bright's Disease of the kidneys causes more deaths in the United States than in any oth- CT country; that more than half the sickness in America is due to weak or diseased kidneys.
 We are a weak -kidneyed people, and the reason is plain. Ambitious to enjoy more than a mere living. to have all the pleasures that our neigh bors have, anxious for wealth and success; we overwork, rest little. eat and drink unwisely, and are "on the go" all the time.
 This strenuous life of today tells on the kidneys. The human body was planned for simpler life. There is just so much work that each organ can do. The kidneys filter our blood day and night, receiving it in a ceaseless stream. draining off the poisonous impurities. This duty is heavy enough in a normal average life, but when we work early and late, give up rest and repose for en- joyment, and retire late to troubled sleep, the work of the kidneys is in- creased enormously Every bit of en- ergy consumed throws into the blood a quantity of waste like the ashes of fire. and if the using up is too rapid, the kidneys cannot keep pace with it. A cold, chill, fever. strain or any excess may hasten the inevit- able breakdown, and as the circula- tion of the blood never stops, the kidneys have no time to rest, no chance to mend. Sick kidneys can not get we'll alone.
 The first warnings of kidney weak ness are dull. aching pain in the back. retention, excessive flow, discoloration

4 SPECTACULAR EVENT
 OF TERRITORIAL FAIR
The Display of Wilson's Fireworks
 on the Third Night.

The most spectacular feature of the territorial fair will be Wilson's display of fireworks on Wednesday night of fair week.
 Beginning with a salute it will pro- gross through volleys of vari-colored balloons, rockets, shells and fire flies. on through the maze of beautiful figures. and will wind up with a grand bombardment of shells, follow ed by a beautiful aerial bouquet
 The most striking feature, perhaps, will be that depicting the lombard ment of Castle Moro by the American fleet. Four warships move to and fro in front of a structure raised to represent the famous fort, sending in its direction volley after volley of colored shells Two ships blow up. and are followed by an explosion from the fort. The spectacle is most imposing.
 Another beautiful design is that of a primitive American Indian, bow and arrow in hand, shooting at a bird image an a tree some forty feet distant. The white arrow, released from the bow, speeds straight to it's mark and the whole goes up in a flare of light.
 An Arctc scene, representing the Santa Claus famous in folk lore, will not be without its element of merit The King of Yuletide drives his rein deer straight into the shower of flakes and is lost from sight.
 Three golden fountains spraying showers of sparks around, combine to form a picture delightful to be- hold.
 The set pieces will be well inter spersed throughout with volleys of rockets and balloons. each different of design and effect. Five distinct explosions result from some of the larger shells release rockets of three different colors
 At times the whole heavens are aflame with stars. rockets and show ering sparks. Caliope rockets with several different notes, whizz in diff ferent directions and send shivers through the frames of the more timid ones in the crowd. The spectacle throughout is well worth the while of the fair visitors with an aesthetic taste.

 PHOENIX PROOF.
 Ira NJ Alspaugh of 127 E. Van Buren St, Phoenix. Ariz. says: "The merits of DOan's Kidney Pills are un- questionable. For about six months there were symptoms which plainly indicated that my kidneys were not performing their functions properly. I was so much impressed with an ad- Vertisement in favor of DOan's Kid ney Pills that I immediately procured a box at a drug store. I received almost immediate relief upon com mencing their use and steadily i'm proved until my kidneys were re- stored to their normal condition, and the pains had entirely left my back. It is with pleasure that I recommend DOan's Kidney Pills to other sufferers of kidney complaint
