NASHVILLE Tenn. Aug. 1S.--
Benjamin w. Hooper of Newport

state convention which assembled in
the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville
The name OF Alfred A. Taylor OF

announcement Of the result of the

The independent statewide prohi

to support the ticket nominated as
against the regular Democratic nomi

The platform adopted declares fol
no backward step in the prohibition

the state should be redistricted as

CHILDISH LACK OF LOGIC
Often the Little Folk Succeed In -
tanning Conclusions by Proccssa0
Of Pure Reason.

A great deal is said, not always Just
ly. about childish lack of logic AS a
matter Of fact, children often are high
ly logical, though not quite in the
adult manner. They attain conclu-
sions by those processes of pure
reason" which, being quite unbiased
by the opinions of others, sometimes
result in startling truths.
Almost everybody, for instance, has
heard of the little lad who, listening
to the question of an irreligious friend
of the family as to what would hap
pen supposing that one good Christian
should pray for an east, another for
west wind at sea, innocently answer
ed that of course there'd be an awful
tempest, but not everyone has heard
of the equally pertinent and naive So
luton recently offered by thoughtful
youngster for the ever-perplexing
problem of Are prayers answered."
The child was talking with another.

question, explaining at the same time
that he didn't believe that prayers
were answered, because he never got

the chairman Of an evenings program
to take up half the time Of the prin-
cipal speaker of the session. At
some of the meetings for men that
were held, the audience would many
times, half of them, slumber while
an Englishman held the platform,
but when an American took the plat
form, interest was Immediately
aroused and all attention was turned
to the speakers from America who
were popular with all conference
people,
The singing OF the Scotch and
English, was also another character
istic feature Of the slowness Of those
people, who take up more time in
singing one song than an entire pro-
gram would For music they have
only small reed organs and in the AS
sembly hall there was but small
pipe organ.
For me there was great deal of
profit in the conference, where sew
eral thousand people from all over
the world were gathered and many
questions arise from the seeing Of
such an immense gathering. That
there will be changes In the next
generation or two is assured for the
world is growing smaller as was
demonstrated by the gathering Of so
many people from all parts of the
world. A distance that we used to
think great Is now smaller and in a
few days many people were gotten to-
gether for the recent world confer
ence.
Another thing that impressed me,
was the unity that is prevailing now,
and though there isn't as much OF
that quality as there should be the
conference is sure to accomplish I'M
ity in the work of carrying the gospel
| to all parts of the world, the thing it
has set out to do. The problem for
christian people to study over is,
how we are going to get closer to-
gether that we may not retard the
work Of the missionary boards in
their work.
mo country has better opportun-
ity Of helping in this great work
than has the United States and we
1 in Keokuk can aid. Many times the
4 price of glass of soda water or a CT
1 gar is all that is tossed into the col
lection plates when the satisfaction
Of knowing that we have done some
thing good is worth the price Of a
hat. The question presents itself-ls
it all worth while, and the recent
Edinburgh conference had proved
that it Is"

OFFICERS TO PROBE
Police Docket Light and Several
DRINKS and Peace Disturbers
Make up Morning
Budget.

A light police docket greeted the
judge of the superior court this
morning. The two Lee half brothers
each plead not guilty to the charge
of committing robbery on the person
of Charles Oliver yesterday after
noon in the lower railroad yards.
The bonds of the two railroad labor
ers were fixed at one hundred dollars
each and on default Of payment they
were returned to the lock up. Fur
Their investigation will be made of the
case, as several persons on the levee
at the time the three men were there
during the afternoon, say that the ac-
ton of the Lees looked suspicious.
Oliver was given thirty days, the
limit, in the city Jail for drunken
ness. Oliver claimed yesterday to
have been held up by the Lees, his
companions, who were enroute to
Hannibal with him to have their
checks cashed.

Lightning Doesn't Strike In Slice

Lightning Doesn't Strike In Sleep.
Doctor Brewer should have advised
those who are nervous in thunder
stern to go not merely to bed but to
sleep There is popular tradition
that lightning will not kill anyone
who Is asleep.
The folk lore of lightning is ex-
tensive and peculiar. According to
one school, the splinters of a tree
struck by lightning are an infallible
specific for the tcothache. But the
NEST pleasing superstition is that
which used to be cherished by the
boys of Yorkshire village who be-
lieved that If they mentioned the
lightning Immediately after flash the
seat of their trousers would be torn
out. No boy could be induced to
make the xperiment.-London Chron-

Young Lad Being Kept In Upper

Officers.
NEED JUVENILE JAIL
City Should Establish Place That
Would Serve Better for Safe
Keeping Of Minors Who
Break Laws.

One among many things that Keo.
Euk needs Is juvenile lookup and
that sort of a place for keeping minor
prisoners, is needed badly by the po-
lice department of the city, In caring
for the lads under age who persistent
ly break the laws.
That Jail for boys is needed, was
clearly demonstrated yesterday about
the noon hour when a youngster Lee
Roy Rcddinger, made good his escape
from an upstairs room in the police
station where he was being kept on
account Of misdemeanor of which
he is charged Reddinger was arrested
the day before and taken to the po-
lice station. The officers are not
authorized to lock up a person under
age and put them behind the bars
with criminals, so an upstairs store
room, just above the lobby where
prisoners are examined when first
brought In, did service for Reddinger's
place of safe keeping. On a number
of occasions this room which Is not
locked and is just at the head of the
stairs. has been used to keep bad boys
in. Young Reddinger either climbed
from window Or sneaked down the
stairs and out the door in getting
away, for he had fed when the jailer
went to the upper chamber to give
him his dinner.
