One of the things that interested
us most was the beautiful stone
church. There are only two kinds
of religion here-Catholic and pro-
testant. The church is a large
rough stone building built after
the style of a Greek cathedral.
On the first floor is the big aud
itorium of the Catholic church. 1t
has a membership of 1900 and a
priest in Charge paid by the gov
eminent. 1t is equipped with a
pipe organ and fine statuary. At
the front Is a piece OF statuary in
marble representing the crucifix-
ion of Christ in life size. 1t is the
finest piece OF work in existence
of that nature and almost price
less. The second floor is the pro-
testant chapel in charge Of a chap
lain. All persons not Catholics
are classei ~protestants, but the
Catholics have the largest mem
bership. "
We would advise every veteran
who has a claim to the advant-
ages offered by the home to not
pass them by.

Awaited the End of the World

Vienna, April SAN amusing ac-

habitants Of a small Hungarian vii
lage prepared for the end OF the
world has reached Vienna. In
Nagy-Szt-Miklos, village in the
Thesis valley, the inhabitants have
been expecting the end of the
world for some weeks, believing
that on the appearance Of Halley's
comet the whole globe will be
smashed to atoms.
Some days ago large fire broke
out toward midnight in a neighbor
ing village. The Waterman, seeing
the skies lighted up, walked thru
the streets blowing his horn to
arouse the inhabitants and shout
ing. "The last day has Gomez The
people rushed half clothed, from
their abodes to die in the open.
Men trembled, women SCREENED and
the children cried.
What followed was a curious
satire on the actions and thoughts
attributed to the dying by writer's
of poetry, and fiction. The sim
pie people considered first that
all the provisions in the village
should be consumed. A large fire
was lighted in the square in front
Of the church and there food and
drink of all kinds was brought out
of the houses. Everyone joined in
a hurried orgy, while hasty pray
ers wer made between bites for
the salvation Of their souls.

The finding OF the body of 9
well-dressed young man on the
river bank at Glasgow last week
points to a cold blooded murder,
The man was no doubt killed about
two weeks ago by being struck
and cut, as there was no bullet
hole as first reported. He had
been tied sup with heavy wire and
weighted down with a rock, but
the stone worked loose and the
body came TO the surface and was
washed to the shore. This part is
fortunate as it is now an easy mat
ter IL a proper effort is made by
The Officers, to find out who 1t was
and in this way the young mans
whereabouts and company can be
traced. WI hope the criminal win
be punished.

Mrs. Eliza J. Crowder
who Departed this Life
March 20, 1910.

Dearly beloved one, as We think of
you now
Your life brings us thoughts OF
the good and the fair.
Your soul has passed on, but your
influence will follow.
We think of you now in that
home over there.
You've gone on before us and trav
eled the way
Where love is intending and night
always day.
We all miss you so and your kind
ly smile.
In the tender way that your low
ing heart knew
When you Were here with us and
all of the while.

Guards at the State Pentiten

Guards at the State Pentiten-
tiary are now uniformed and are
trained to perform the duties re-
quired of them. They can now be
distinguished from visitors, and
from other prison officials, and
look like men employed to safely
keep the prisoners within the walls
The change is so noticeable and
appeals so readily to observant
visitors that everybody remarks
"why Were the guards not always
uniformed?" And the hills OF
Galloway across the river echo
''why?"

LITTLE JOHNNY JONES. ,,

This city will have the opportuni-
ty of witnessing last seasons most
emphatic musical success, Little
Johnny JONES'" this notable attraction
being booked for the Paris Grand, on
Monday, April IL.
No musical play presented last sea-
son enjoyed such phenomenal prosperi-
ty, it having played eight different
times in New York City during the
season, covering a period of six
months. 1t was also seen for two
weeks in Boston, four months in Chi
cago. four weeks IN Philadelphia, and
all the other principal cities.
Little Johnny Jones" was written
by George M. Cohan, who also com
posed the music and has personally
staged the present production. Proba-
bly, no writer of musical comedy has
had so many distinct successes as Mr..
Conan; "Forty-tive Minutes from
Broadway, George Washington,
Jr.," Yankee Prince and the Man
Who Owns Broadway" which have
attained great popularity, being the
work of his pen. Little johnny
Jones is conceded the best work that
Mr.. Conan has yet offered the public.
IL mas a pretty and interesting story
concerning the adventures of an
American jockey who goes to England
to win fame and fortune on the Eng
lish turf.
There is plot which holds the at
tention of the audience from first to
last, while the action of the play is
interrupted by some lively and very
tuneful music during the three acts.
and each one of the songs attained a
very wide popularity last season.
The production that will be seen here
is very large and complete, embracing
three mammoth stage settings show
ing interior of the Hotel Cecil in Lon
don, the steamship pier at Southamp-
ton, with the departure of an ocean
liner. an illuminated steamer at sea.
anu a street scene in the Chinese quar-
ter of San Francisco. The company
that will present Little Johnny
Jones' in this city contains fifty PEG
pie and embraces in its cast of primer
pals many stage fayorites. The cho-
rus is promised as very large and pro-
fcient. numbering over thirty people.

Aids Branded as Bride Taker.

The New York Senate Tuesday by a
vote of 40 to 9 sustained the charge
that Senator Aids had demanded and
taken bride. 1t was unable to pun
ish Aids. however. for, before the
vote began, he resigned his position
in the Senate and thereby released
himself from the jurisdiction of that
body. The question of what shall be
done with Senator Conger, Aids ac-
cuser still remains. A report that Con-
ger intended to follow Aids example
and resign proved unfounded, and Con-
gers future action is still in doubt.

Why Do They Leave?

Champ Clark says he can't under
stand why people move away from
Missouri, but they do. They can't
talk about the menace of immigra-
tion.'' said Mr.. Clark the other day,
"but want to tell you that the big
menace is emigration out of state
like Missouri" They are going to
Kansas. Mr.. Clark says. to Oklahoma
and to the British Northwest. They
own big, prosperous farms and are
making money. but they will pull up
and go farther West.
Mr.. Clark is not alone in mis- inabill-
ty to understand such a situation.
SAYS the Courier-J ournal. There is no
good reason why any large number OF
men who own prosperous farms and
are making money should pull up to
leave Missouri or any other State.
Now and then there are considerations
which make a change advisable, but
these considerations do not apply to
the large majority of those who are
emigrating.
Missouri is a good State. A man
who is prospecting in Missouri is hardly
likely to better his condition by NOV
ing to Canada. Missouri has land
that will compare favorably with the
lands of Kansas and Oklahoma. Large
sections of toe State are thinly popu-
lated and there is a Statewide move
ment to secure immigrants and to
open the undeveloped lands to cult
walton. On July l, 1909, there was
left in Missouri 1850 acres of Gov
eminent land, subject to homestead
entry. 1t cannot be that Missouri is
lacking IN opportunities for men OF
limited means.
Mr.. Clark's observations on the emil
grafton from his own State apply
with equal force to Kentucky. Thou
sands of Kentuckians have emigrated
to the West and more of them are emf
eating all the time. One may seldom
pick up a Kentucky paper without
finding mention of the departure of a
| family or families to future home IN
the West. Mr.. Clark himself is one OF
a vast number of good citizens thai
Kentucky has furnished to Missouri
Mr.. Clark was young when. he lef
Kentucky and therefore more eXcusa
BILE than a good many of those who arr
leaving now. Probably if ne ha'
tarried little longer he would have
been wondering now, why anyone
wants to leave Kentucky.

Increase in Indian Birth Rate.

his passing from the face Of the earth,
II the statistics concerning deaths and
6lrths among about one third of the
Indian population in the United
States. which have just been compiled
by the Bureau OF Indian affairs, can be
accepted as criterion of the general
condition of the fred race. During the
fiscal year 1909 there were 3178 deaths
among 10l, Ut Indians. This showed a
birth rate per thousand of 1874 as com
pared with 30.2 deaths.
