Our text submits a proposition from
God to His people. He tells them that
lie they will do certain things He will
also do some things, and ! will stake
my life on His doing what He prom
ises. What He wants His people to
do here is to humble themselves and
to pray and to turn from their sins
and to seek His force, and He prom
Uses to forgive and to bless them. He
wants you people, you Christian peo-
pie of Bryan, to do the same thing
and He will bless you. Are you will
ing to do what He wants?"
At the close of the service q large
number came forward, signifying their
willingness to meet the conditions
laid down in the sermon.

ELECTION RESULTS.

While there are yet no definite figures
on the elections in the nation, state and
county It is perhaps well that we give
what seems to be the results to date.
At least thlrty-eight states are claimed
for Wilson. The states OF Idaho, Utah
and Vermont are conceded to Taft. Penn
sylvania, Illinois. Michigan, Minnesota
and Washington have been conceded tO
Roosevelt. However. the latest returns
place Illinois back In the doubtful col
umns along with California, South Da-
kota. Kansas, Iowa and Wyoming. The
latest Indications are that Taft has
carried wyoming. that Roosevelt has
carried South Dakota and that Wilson
will get the other doubtful states.
In the states OF Illinois, Kansas and
California the race between Roosevelt
and Wilson Is so close that the balance
is continually changing and can not be
known definitely until all the distant
county votes are In ad couted.
In Colorado the vote is decisive for all
the Democratic candidates except for at
torney general. Griffith, the Progressive
candidate, may have a plurality vote
On the presidential electors the state
has gone Democratic by some 5000 plu-
raiity No Democrat has majority vote
They, like Wilson in the nation. are mi
nority offcers-elect.
In the county there has been as yet
no change In the official count that has
changed the results as published. The
entire Republican ticket was defeated
with the exceptions Of Isgar for com
missioner, Fassbinder for sheriff and
Mrs. Orme for county clerk.
As to the amendments but few fig
ures have been given out In the state
The tunnel bill and the prohibition meas
ure were defeated by large maJorities
1t would appear that the recall and tn,
headIess ballot measures have passet
along with several other of the thirty
two proposed amendments, referred bill
and Initiated measures. 1t is probable
that the measure for the bonding OF tn,
state for the building OF roads has beer
defeated on the Kroisad that the fund
would become a means for the buildini
up Of a political machine and a mean
of graft. The people were afraid 4
trust those whom they knew under tn
circumstances would certainly be elected
| The Democrats will have good work
Ing majorities In both branches of tn
legislature. They, In the state as In tn
nation. were elected by a minority vot
] and will be embarrassed more or less 70

HURRY HURTS WIFE'S
KNEE: KNOT NOW UNTIlII

PUEBLO, Nov. 9.-rhat man who
beats his wife until he dslocates her
knee. njurng her for life, has no right
to have Il wife evidently is the opinion
of County Judge Frank f. Mirick. who
yesterday granted Mrs. Annie Watkins
petition for divorce from Homer Wat
kins. Mrs. Watkins was given $50 a
month permanent almony
quite a stir was created in society
--aiFcles several weeks ago when Mrs
watkins fled her petition for divorce
for her husband belongs to one of the
oldest and most prominent families in
Pueblo.
The mere petition for divorce came as
Il decided shock to the better families
of Pueblo, but the charges 1t contained
fairly made the gasp. Mrs. Watkins
claimed that on June 9, 1911 less than
two months after their marriage. her
husband entered the house in a rage and
knocked her over a chair, causing her
TO suffer numerous bad bruises. On the
same day, she said. he beat and choked
her
