Till we make the map all white, till

And Kansas great and North Dakota

wave is rolling hight
Alabama, Mississippi, North Caroline,
all gone dry"
And Texas, too, and Arkansas, have
voted for the right,
And all the rest will follow, till we

Till we make the map all white, Till

Well work for Prohibition Till we

The saloons can stay no longer, when

was very amusing and very much en-
joyed. Then he had group of boys
to come up and sit on the stage to
show the way they partake of a meal.
They sit on the fioorTwith the table
cloth spread over their laps and all
eat from the same dish, and they
never have but one thing at the time
to eat and only eat once a day and
that is supper. They never have any
courtship over there; the father of the
groom makes all the necessary ar
rangements, and the couple are not
allowed to see or speak to each other
until the time for the ceremony to be
performed, without love and without
the slightest knowledge of each other
they take unto themselves the mar
riage vows. 1t takes three hours to
perform the ceremony and they are
never allowed a divorce, and In case
of death they are not allowed a sec
ond marriage.
He showed several musical instru-
ments, which presented a strange ap-
pearance. One resembled to some ex-
tent sweet potato, and others SO
peculiar in size and shape, 'twould be
difficult to describe. From these, the
sweetest strains of music ever list
ened to were rendered by him. One
was especially deep and melodious,
and was three thousand years old. To
say the least of this lecture it was one
OF the finest ever presented anywhere,
and would have to be heard in the
entirety to be fully appreciated.
The closing number was "Shall We
Meet Beyond the River" rendered by
Mr. Basmijain on the instrument 5000
years old.
