HOW CHAMP CLARK
SINNED AND REPRINTED.

Clark's first Sunday saw him at the
little church where worshipped the
followers of Alexander Campbell
called the Disciples of Christ. Clark
put in his letter from the Christian
church at Cincinnati, where ne had
been in the law school, and was re-
ceived into full fellowship. Within a
few days steamboat trip was ar
ranged by the young men of the town
the old steamer War Eagle, towing the
barge Mamie, brass band, lemonade
stand and all, steamed slowly up the
broad river, while the full June moon
rose over the picturesque bluffs of
Pike county, Illinois. The music, the
perfect night, the odor of a thousand
roses, the enthusiasm of youth-all
else was forgot, and the young church
man danced all the way up the river
to the turning-round point, and then
danced all the way back to the land
ing at Louisiana, at o'clock in the
morning.
The next Sunday he took his way to
church, all unconscious of the gather
ing storm Before the service began
the young Kentuckian was called be.
fore the bar of the church and ex-
PEELED from its membership for dane
ing, in violation of the laws of the
church Clark, crestfallen but not dis
couraged, walked out and cooled his
brow in the shade of the long rows of
naples on Georgia street. 1t was de-
pressing, discouraging. But soon the
air cleared; he walked resolutely back
to the church, slipped in and took a
seat on the last bench in the rear,
observed by none. There he sat and
heard a sermon on backsliding that
seemed to be directed at hinpalone.
In the Christian church it is the I'M
failing custom, at the close of the
service, to offer an invitation TO all
repentant sinners to come forward and
take a place on the front seat while
the congregation sings hymn. 1t is
a goodly custom. The usual invitation
was given, when up rose tall blonde
and blue-eyed young man with a
square jaw-the young Kentucky law
yer, who, according to the Riverside
Press, had settled in our midst He |
stalked straight to that front bench !
and sat resolutely down, the only re-
pentant sinner to make the good con- |
fession. The pastor was nonplussed;
he presiding elder gasped; the dea- ,
cons were agitated. The book contain |
ng the rules and laws of the church |
vas dug up and hastily consulted; all
lands put their heads together, but
here was only one thing to do, re-
)entant sinner could not be turned
way. so Clark went back into the fold

SECRETARIES ASSOCIATION

i The Medina dam and irrigation
project, which is being financed by
English capitalists, is evidence of the
confidence that foreign capitalists have
in the future possibilities of Texas
The dam which is being constructed
is over 1900 feet long and will be one
of the largest in the United States,
Thirteen thousand acres of land will
be placed under irrigation by the com
Ipany making the improvements. 1t is
thought that other irrigation compa-
MES will make similar developments
along this line within the next year.
The soil and climate of Texas is
particularly adapted to horse raising,
and no country on the globe can equal
us in economy and quality of produc-
ton.
Ernest Matz, of San Benito, who
recently broke the worlds record for
early cotton, has gone to market with
another bale, weighing 400 pounds
Cotton picking has begun in number
of places in South Texas and the cot
ton is of an unusually high grade.
Texas produces one-fifth of the cotton
of the entire world, and each year
We raise more cotton and better cot.
ton
According to the census reports of
the federal department of agriculture,
dated January /, 1910, We had 1862
900 head of horses. and the latest esti-
mate given on value per head was
$50, making total value of Sl09.520,
900 for all horses of all ages. This is
an increase of 100000 in number and
$75,O00,0O0 in value during the past
decade.

New York, July 1S.-The petty crop
scare, although 1t deserved hardly evINp

away this morning in the news of good

Cotton prices, on the other hand, re-
mained practically stationary, not be-
cause there was no disposition to dis
count the extremely weak character OF
the conditions that have held now for
several weeks past in the cotton belt,
but because every one realized that the
cotton season has still many days to
travel before. it is ended. Meantime
speculation for the fall in the staple has
doubtless become somewhat extended or
at least very much greater than it was
some time since, and this fact alone i'm
parted a residence to the cotton market
which was as entirely lacking under ex-
actly reverse speculative conditions two
months ago.
AS regards the stock market, specu-
lative activity in It was almost at the
minimum, and the volume of the days
transactions in stocks was only $4,000
shares, or but little above the low rec
