THE ROCK SPRINGS MEETING.
Mrs. Herbert and Miss Gary Were
Greatly Appreciated.

Richland, Oct 1.-Special: At 8
o'clock Sunday, the 26th, Mrs. e. S.
Herbert and Miss Gary lectured to a
full house at Rock Springs church.
1T would have been a benediction to
have heard Mrs. Herbert and seen
her sweet face If she had not said a
word. But when she took the chair
and began talking to the children we
old people felt it was good to be
there" She showed tiny rib
bon representing $1,00O,O0O spent in
the interest of temperance in the
United States, then $1O,OOO,OOO for
missions. We felt very proud, but as
she went on and on and showed what
was spent for useless things, then the
harmful, on to whiskey, it amounted
to so many millions that no one of
us could live long enough to count
1t. 1t was an object lesson that the
children who SO gracefully unrolled
the ribbons will never forget. When
Miss Emma Gary arrived from Cen
ter (where she had spoken to a
crowded house) Mrs. Herbert in
troduced her to the congregation and
she gave a fine lecture on temper
ance. She had a full house, and held
1t until sundown. We were only
sorry she did not have time to tell
us something on China, old and
New Japan and Her Hidden
Fires and Around Our Little
World"
we knew, from press accounts of
her, that she was a fine speaker. She
was one OF the speakers at the great
Ecumenical Conference in New York
City in 1900, and in London in 1901.
we were expecting a good deal, still
she gave us a little more than we
were expecting Just from a woman"
She showed how whiskey would
bring men down from the highest
type to the lowest outcast; how it
was so easy, after being under the
influence OF whiskey, to add every
other sin in quick succession
Miss Emma Gary, teacher, mission
ary, traveller and lecturer, is of a
South Carolina family. This family
mas given able ministers, physicians
Judges, statesmen, Governors and
united States Senators to our coun-
try, as well as brave general of the
civil war. On her mothers side are
the Crooks and Ridgeways, of Vir-
gln1a and Georgia, and the Tillmans
Of South Carolina.
After her lecture she sang a Chi
nese song, which the grown people
enjoyed as much as the children
whom she sang it for. While she
was singing our pastor passed some
cards to the waiting congregation to
subscribe to the temperance cause
Alter taking up collection we
were dismissed by Rev. J. l.. Single
ton, to whom much of the success of
the meeting is due.
After the benediction Mrs. Herbert
and Miss Gary received the congrega-
ton. The Misunderstanding must have
been something like a White House
reception. After the speaking was
over several of the gentlemen begged
Miss Gary for her lecture that they
might have it printed. She said "it
was from the heart; she spoke as the
Lord directed her." She did not even
have notes. G

ters for establishing state banks as
feeders. It appears as if the Guthrie
National Bank has been able to cir
cumvent this decision OF Mr.. Young.
About Jan. they made application
TO Mr.. Young for state bank charter
and were promptly refused. Later,
they resurrected an old territorial bank
charter and asked for $4,000 re-
newal Again Mr.. Young refused them
They then took the case to the at
torney general for an opinion. The
attorney general held that inasmuch as
the bank had always held cash and
other assets under the old charter that
they were entitled to renewal Mr.
Young compelled them, however, to
take out $4,000 charter instead of
$4,000.
