Even on the treacherous Colorado there were
peaceful hours, and these were perhaps all the
more memorable for the exciting episodes that
st them off.
The RAPIDS. Of course. offered the principal
dangers \ distant thunderous rumble would
admonish the voyageurs Of what lay ahead
Usually a landing would be made and - % a
ton studied and finally either the rapid would
he run or the boats would be let down" by
lines or else-dreaded alternative portage
might be considered necessary. Thus the Laby-
rinth the saltwater, the Cataract and the Glen
Canyons were passed though not without minor
catastrophes, and at last, on August l., Marble
Canyon, the upper continuation of the Grand
was entered. The combined length of the two
is nearly three hundred miles. with a descent IF
$50 feet. Such passages as the following now
become characteristic of the narrative:
our distance for the day was eighteen miles niles
with eighteen rapids, one nearly three miles !ong
and an follow ing each other 50 closely they We5e

With the entrance into the Grand Canyon
proper, the negotiation of the rapids became in
creasingly ticklish, for the river was in flood
and the black granite walls, rising a thousand
feet almost sheerIv from the water, left no
srace at their foot for portages Every rapid,
no matter how dangerous, had now to be run
The third day Of descent through this canyon
brought the party to the "Sockdologer. For
several miles above the river had been narrow

The running of this rapid. though thrilling
and perious, was accomplished without acci-
dent but not so with the next giant of the
series, in which the Cafonita was capsized and
its crew spared only by a miracle. 1t became
clear, by the time the Kanab Canyon was
reached, that any further descent of the river
in it's state of freshet would be foolhardy. and
very reluctantly a halt was called in the expe-

Prof. Dinsmore Writes to Give Few
Good Words For Candidate for
County Judge of Rockcastle

Editor The Citizen,
Dear Sir:
Information reaches me that Mr..
G. M. Ballard is a candidate for Coun
ty Judge in Rockcastle County. Mr..
Ballard deserves to succeed. He is
a son Of the soil" of Rockcastle Co.
BY his diligence and efficiency he has
made a name and place for himself.
Starting In life as a poor mountain
boy he made the best of such op-
portunities as existed. ExhaustinR
the resources of the district school he
determined to go further. Accord
ingly he attended school at Berea
College from 1892 to 1896 fitting him
self for any position to which duty
might call him.
For ten years he did faithful SER
vice as country school teacher. there
laying the foundation for the high
office of County Superintendent.
which he has most successfully filled
for two terms.
Like other aspiring men Mr.. Ballard
has always looked to his own mental
growth and advapcement. In the
midst of a busy life he found time
for the study of law and in 1902 was
admitted to the Bar.
Few men who aspire to office are
haitian nYrnlfffnH 20 n.
interests of the people.
In politics Mr.. Ballard has always
been a Republican. He has served in
the councils of his party performing
diligently and conscientiously the
work assigned him striving to promot
right principles and clean politics.
AS County Superintendent he has
brought up the schools of the County
to a higher standard both in respect
to attendance and efficiency of teach
ers. He has urged and inspired the
teachers of the County to fit them
selves for their profession by attend
ing higher schools between terms
and as a result few counties in Ken
lucky can boast of a higher grade Of
work done in the public schools.
Wherever he has been placed so
far as my knowledge extends he has
made good" and here's hoping that
he may again carry the banner of
victory in his candidacy for County
Judge.
Respectfully,
J. w. Dinsmore.

IN OUR OWN STATE
Bradley Rules Rejected-Real Reform
in Breathitt- Penitentiaries to Be
lnvestigated-Two Men Saw Out of
Jail at Lancaster.

HEAVY RAINFALL:-The rain
Tuesday was one of the heaviest and
most destructive which has fallen in
the state recently. In some sections
houses are completely covered with
water, animals drowned, and people
fighting for their lives and property.
Washouts and landslides on the L.
and N. and Southern railroads suspend
ed traffic in some places.
BRIDEGROOM SHOT:-While at
tending a reception at the home of
his mother-in-law, at 0akwoods,
Fleming Co, ia honor of his marriage
VIM. Throckmorton was called to
the door of tine house and shot in
the chest by an unknown party. He
is not expected to live. Bloodhounds
were ordered.
BRADLEY RULES REJECTED
The attempt of Sen. Bradley to have
the Republican party law so changed
that he would be able to control the
large cities, which so far have been
against him, failed at the meeting of
the Republican Central Committee
last Thursday. The vote against the
rules he had drawn up was unanimous.
While it is recognized that there are
many chances of fraud under the
present party law, and that there is
ample room for improvement, but
the decision of the Committee was
that there would be no improvement
by substituting copy of the infam-
GUS Goebel law for the present sys-
TEN. This decision seems to be gener-
ally approved except by Bradley's
most violent partisans.
! CLEANING UP BREATHITT:-The
strength of the law and order move
ment is showing in Breathitt by the
number of indictments by the present
grand jury. There have been $50 Of
which three fourths are for whiskey
selling.

Perhaps the largest blessing which
Berea has had In recent years seems
In store for us in the coming of DR..
Torrey for a protracted meeting the
second week In March.
DR.. Torrey is without doubt the
foremost evangelist of our time. As
young man he had great success in
winning universal love and stirring
up the most lively interest among
all classes OF people In the affairs
OF religion when he was pastor of
country church at Garretsville, Ohio.
From there he went to Chicago and
was soon the companion of Mr.. Moody.
When Moody died 1t was Torrey who
Immediately filled out his engage
ments and stepped into his work as
nearly as one man can ever step in
to the work OF another.
DIR. Torrey has been pastor of the
Moody church in Chicago, a foremost
preacher In the summer conferences
at Mortified. and has carried the
gospel around the world with most
wonderful results, in England, Austria
liza and other countries. He IS now
conducting a meeting at Montgomery,
Ala, and comes from that city TO
Berea-
DIR. II. A. Torrey, the great evange-
list and his corps of assistants will
arrive in Berea on March 9, for
series OF revival meetings lasting five
days. This will be their only stop
in Kentucky and they come specially
to cooperate with Berea College and
at its request giving their services be-
cause OF their belief In the import
ance OF the work being done here.
DIR. Torrey will be accompanied by
the Rev. VIM. s. Jacoby. DR. Palmer.
the choral leader and the pianist. All
OF these have wide experience in
revivals and together constitute a
most efficient corps OF workers.
DR.. Torrey's visit to Berea comes
as a fitting sequel TO that OF DR..
Chapman and Mr. Alexander last fall.
In these two visits these two Leading
world evangelis1s have endorsed Be
rea's work. The good effects
OF the Chapman and Alexander meet
ings will long be felt here and even
greater things are expected this COM
ing series

MORE SMALL P0X
Situation Takes a Turn-No Danger
Except From People Who Insist on
Carrying Cantagion about No
Danger in Vaccination, Either.

The smallpox situation, which
seemed so favorable last week, took
a sudden turn Friday, and there are
now in town twelve cases. OF these
. five are at the hospital five at the
home of L. p. McWhorter. and two
at the Casteel residence opposite. All
the cases seem light and are doing
well.
The mildness OF the cases which
started the epidemic was the cause
Of its spreading. Some time ago a
! young fellow named Brown came TO
town from a smallpox district, but
concealed that fact, tho he broke out

ed McQuin's case was recognized, he
was quarantined, and so far as
known no one caught II from him.
Miss McWhorter did not recognize
that she had smallpox and continued
going about her duties. Finally the
doctors attention was called TO IL,
and he decided that she did have the
disease and ordered a quarantine. But
by that time many were infected and
cases began to appear rapidly.
II is believed now, however, that
most Of the damage has been found
and that there will be little further
( trouble. There are one or two suspl-
cious cases and they are carefully
watched The time for more cases
either from McQuin or Miss McWhor-
ter has passed, and unless some of
those now sick managed to give the
disease TO their friends before they
were quarantined, there should be
no more cases.
