Attendance at Sunday school was
only o., considerable falling off
from last Sunday but better than
a year ago. Mr.. Stevens class had
largest collection.
Hot weather seems to cool some
peoples enthusiasm for church at
tendane.
Through the courtesy of the
Baptist Association which met in
Meade the "a, Is and &c, DR.. M.
Gurley of Topeka filled our pulpit
Sunday morning. His text was
Galatians 40 and the sermon was a
masterful exposition of the practi-
cal Christian life.
In the evening the League ser.
vice was led by W, f. Casteen and
the subject we'll handled. Rev.
Smith, pastor of the Fowler Bap-
fist church preached for US from
the text Gle that winneth souls is
wise" and his sermon was addressed
especially to Christian people, and
was full of good thoughts on the
subject of soul winning.
Both these sermons were much
appreciated by our people and &c
to show the spirit of true Christian
fraternity between the churches
which is hopeful sign of thu
times.
Let US bring the attendance a
Sunday school next Sunday up tn
high standard which we shoul,
maintain.
Prayer meeting last week was lie,
by f. w. Curl and was a helpful
service to all who attended.
Rev. ]. N. Stamper will preach i

in every one of US that makes us a

at will be a fine day when we
know that every man who comes to
make this his permanent home will
find that liberty, freedom, and jus.

they find there are big combinations

Kansas In Early Days.

A story of things that occurred
in Kansas in early day,
Kansas was opened for settle
ment as territory of the U. S.
in May 1855 by all classes of
persons-black, white, free,
slaves, proslavery,l antislavery,
and even to fugitives from slav'
cry. AT once all of these class
es hurried in, mostly from the
ad joining border of Missouri
and from the far east---Mass.
and n. H. and their neighboring
states. BY the spring of 1858 a
fugitive slave had made his way
from some where and some own
er IN the South to a house 5
miles westerly from Lawrence,
Kansas on the road to Topeka.
In that house he was staying
on the day of the Spring cleo
ton of 1858. His owner had
offered a reward to the man who
would return his slave to-him.
Accordingly, Jake Hurd-a
fellow living near by-heard Of
the case and set out to get the
reward. So on the afternoon of
election day, when the men were
gone from home, Jake Hurd saw
his chance and with another fel
low and a horse went to that
house and called on the woman
living there to deliver up the flu
gitiye. This she refused to do.
Next they threatened to burn
out the fugitive-he was down
cellar and they set the house on
fire. But the woman went to
work to put out the fire, where
upon Jake got his fugitive out OF
the cellar and upon his horse
and hurried him away to\Le-
compton, which was six miles to
the north on the Kansas river.
Here he secreted him or sent
him dom stream and probably
got the reward offered by the
owner of the slave.
But Mr., Leonard, the owner
of the house ia which the slave
was secreted, and dozen or sc
of his neighbors, who were at
tending the election werelnoti
fed of the capture and carrying
off of the fugitive and rallied al
once, and drove off towards Le'
compton, hoping to capture
Jake and his fugitive, and carry
them back.
But Jake and his prize were
gone, aud the rescuing party
was foiled in it's hopes to, save a
man from slavery and to- visit
upon Jake Hurd, justice or nc
more than the due reward of his
deeds. His next move was tC

Wilson Talks

annual picnic of the Plattdeutscher
Volksfest Verein.
From high balcony the governor
spoke while bands paraded in other
parts of the park and thousands of
people surgrd back and forth on the
fringe of crowd deeply massed
about the speaker. There were fire.
quent interruptions of applause and
remarks.
ave are asking ourselves this
question:" said the governor, Gas we
face the coming election in Novem-
Der, Which is the open road to get
what we want?"
A man in the crowd answered
'"raft," There was moments sill
ence, when another voice nearer
the front shouted "Wilson." The
crowd took it up and cheered.
When the demonstration had sub
sided the governor pointed in the
direction of the man who had an
swered "Taft" and continues:
"Our friend over there is perfect
ly welcome to use his road, but if
he goes that way he will find that he
is in blind alley, because there is
one thing that was proven at Balti-
more, and that is that the people of
the United States choose their can
iddates and the bosses do not"
The governor dwelt on the re-
sponsibility of the government in
making this country attractive to the
foreigner, so that when he did come
he would find it "place of econo-
mic opportunity where a man may
choose his own career"

New York, Feb. se.--An actual mo-
ney loss in wages and Institutional

city Of Boston ana by 500 male con-
sumptivcs studied by Or. Edwin A..

- but one OF many interesting con-
illusions presented by these physicians
in the March Journal OF the outdoor
Life. (Naw York;, the official organ
OF the National Association for the
Study and Prevention OF Tuberculosis.
In order 10 ascertain the actual
economic loss from tuberculosis, Dra.
Locke and Floyd selected az random
500 male cases, men whe had visited
the dlapensary during the last ave
years. Two hundred and forty-four OF
the eases studied were dead when
tho investigation was begun and 2b6
were living. over al per cent OF the
men were hstwoen the ages Of twenty
and thirly-ninS.
II was found on May 1. t9i1. the
date OF tho Investigation, that The go
dead men had each lost on an aver
age of 5S.03 weeks Of work from the
time Of the onset OF their disease un-
IA death The average weekly rate
of wages OF these men was Sil.Sy and
their total loss In wages amounted to
gf7e,90s The $50 living eases each
lost on an average s9.3 weeks Of work
at an average wage Of Sii.3S or a to-
tai loss OF S255,07f, making st26,0Ss
