. THE BAPTIST REVIVAL
Great Crowds Attended Final Meeting
Last Night-Much Rejoicing
Over the Results.

Last night both auditoriums OF the
First Baptist church were full 10 ever
flowing to hear Evangelists Finney
and Hiett at the last service. Choiris-
ter Hiett was at his best and the sing
ing was indeed uplifting. or all the
beautiful solos he has sung, the one
rendered last night was the best.
Evangelist Finney conducted first
recognition service, in which the roll,
including eighty-one names OF those
who we're converted or reclaimed, was
called. A double row of the converts
was formed all around the pulpit and
platform, song was sung, the Cha
tauqua salute was given them and an
earnest prayer was offered. Then fol-
lowed a call for all who felt that God
had specific work for them to do,
either to preach or become trained
nurse or missionary. About score
of boys and girls, and young men and
young women came forward to dedi-
cate their lives to the Lords service.
1t was an impressive sight. After this
Evangelist Finney delivered brief
but powerful message on the funda-
mentals of our religion. Then the OPP
portunity was given for membership
and four more came forward and
united with the church.
The church feels that this service
closed one of the best and most sue
cessful REVEALS in its history. 1t is
believed that no reviyalist has ever
come to Bryan that preached greater

ford. The Kansas supreme court sl'
lowed that amount as damages to the

company and the railroad could not
agree on the payment of demurrage
charges of SO on some cars of grain

ing company refused to pay the rail
road company refused to handle cars
The mill company then brought SUN

pany lost each time. Then the claims

Bloodhound Good Evidence.

Toneka. Kan.-The Kansas supreme
court. in a decision affirming the con-
viction of the murder of Glenn Adams,
annealed from Graham county, held
that bloodhound evidence was suffl'
Gent on which to base a conviction
when the bloodhounds had been prov
cd to be accurate and reliable in fol-
lowing the trail of human footsteps.
In November, 1910, Joseph Anderson
was shot and killed at his home.
Adams lived six miles away, but he
left his home early in the evening and
returned early in the morning. Tracks
about the home of Anderson gave the
bloodhounds a good trail and they fol
lowed il to the Adams home. Shoe
tracks at the Adams home and around
Anderson's body and the shoes which
Adams wore correspondent. The shoes
and the bloodhounds was all the evil
dence on which the trial was based
except some conflicting statements
made by Adams at the time of his ar
rest as to his whereabouts the night
NJ the mudrer. The supreme court
held this evidence sufficient and
Adams must go to the penitentiary
for life.

ouakes in Gas Field Play Havoc

Tulsa. Okla.-Barney Sullivan, a
we'll known oil man, was killed, a
team of horses killed and the entire
city shaken by a terrific nitro-glycer'
inc explosion one mile north OF the
oitv. Sullivan was loading nitro
elycerin from the Kansas Torpedos
magazine to wagon when it exploded.
MANY people believed it was an earth
Quake and rushed into the streets
Workmen on the ten-story hotel build
ing in course of construction say the
ton of the building swayed like snip
at sea. Two hundred quarts of nitro
glycerin exploded.
Fifty.five minutes after the explo'
sion there was terrific rumbling in the
bowels of the earth on the farm of Da-
vid Shipman, eight miles SOUTH fol
lowed by an upheaval of the earth
covering a space OF nearly five acres
and a fire that killed four horses, de-
stroyed considerable property and en-
dangered the lives of half a dozen
nersons. The incident on the Ship
man farm, which was not an explo'
sion. is believed to be the first case
of its kind in the history of the oil IN
dustry in America.

Watch Your Horse In Hot Weather

Manhattan, Kan.-If your horse
doesn't sweat as he should, this hot
weather, watch him carefully; he may
be coming down with sunstroke. If he
is unusually tired and does not show
his usual spirit of driving look out for
heat stroke. In either case do not
urge him too much with the whip.
Allow him to cool. Let him stand III
the shade for while; give him swal-
low or two Of COOL fresh water-not
too much at a time-and repeat 1t
every ten or fifteen minutes until he
feels better. In an hour or so give
him all the water he wants.
At the same time, with sponge or
cloth, cool his head with water as cold
as possible. Use plenty of cool water
here, but not internally. If you use
too freely internally you may founder
the animal Continue this treatment
until the horse sweats naturally-all
ever.
The absence of humidity is account,
able for the few sunstrokes or heat
strokes just now. Sunstroke is caused
by direct rays of the sun. Heatstroke
or exhaustion is caused more by hu
Nudity. In either case the result is
identical-an active congestion Of the
brain.
If your horse stops or hangs his
head, begins to stagger or in other
ways shows signs of brain trouble, I'M
hitch him at once and cool him Off
Apply ice or very cold water freely to
the head and along the spine. At the
same time turn the hose on him and
cool off hts body thoroughly. Do this
for ten or fifteen minutes or until you
reduce the fever Rub his limbs with
spirits of camphor and give him, In
ternally, one ounce of aromatic spirits
of ammonia in half pint of water.
DR.. F. S. Schoenleber, state veter-
mary, says more active stimualnt
may be necessary when the reaction
sets in. Some after-treatment may be
needed, too, as many horses are like
ly to suffer subsequent attacks. If
the horse is a very valuable animal, 1t
would be wise to call veterinarian.

KANSAS NOW READY TO
DESCEND ON THE GERMS
PORTABLE WATER PLANT WILL
CLEAN OUT RESERVOIRS.
Low Water of Many Streams Used
For Public Supply Emphasizes
Necessity.

Topeka, Kan.-The Kansas state
board of health is now prepared to
wage effective war, on short notice,
against the typhoid fever epidemic
that may be caused by polluted city
water supply.
Upon the request Of Secretary Crum.
bine, the boards engineer, Prof. VIM.
C. Hoad of the university, has devised
a portable "hypochlorite treatment"
plant which. can be shipped to any
part Of the state and within few
hours after its arrival can be set UP
and treating the polluted water with
the new germ killer, which has been
proven to be very effective in purify.
ing water, leaving it wholesome and
safe for domestic use.
The extreme low water of many
streams that are used as source OF
public supply emphasizes the neces-
sity of being prepared for any emer-
gency that may arise, and it is this
emergency that the state board OF
health is now prepared to meet.
While hypochlorite treatment has
been tried in other places, the idea
of having a portable plant is original
with Secretary Crumbine. In num-
Der of large eastern cities the idea has
been used, but the plants are perma-
nently installed. The one built by the
Kansas health board is now ready at
Lawrence, and two hours after 1t Is
in the town where needed it can be
ready for business.
"The PLAN" said DR.. Crumbine, "con-
sists of big barrel in the center and
a series of duplicate barrels connect
ed up with rubber hose and brass
weight fittings. If any part Of 1t
should get out of operating order, the
other barrels can continue the work.
"In the central barrel hypochlorite
of lime is mixed with water, in pro-
portions depending upon the analysis
of the water that is being treated, mix
ed by stir which can be operated
either by hand or machinery. Hose
from this barrel leads off into the
other containers, dripping into them,
where the mixture is still further d.
luted. This then drips into feeding
box which runs into the reservoirs,
from which the water is pumped to
the consumer. The drip which goes
into the reservoir unites with the nat
ural mineral salts in the water and
sets free the chlorine gas, which is a
natural disinfectant for water setting
I'D an oxidizing process which burns
I'D the germs. The hypochlorite all
settles in the reservoir and the con-
sumer gets none of it. The only ex-
pense to the cities is the cost of the
chemicals"
