In a Country Town.

Twas a small country town. y
game of baseball was in progress at
the park. The mayor of this little city
became so weak from some cause, that
he was taken into carriage and
brought to town. AS he passed the
church which I was the pastor, I saw
that he was unable to sit up and was
being held in that position by friend
on either side. Although l felt that 1t
could be none other than Mayor Will
liams, I followed on to see what they
would do with him. saw them few
minutes later unload him into the back
room of a grocery store where it had
been suspicioned for years that
whisky was kept and sold
I met Mrs. Williams on the street
looking and inquiring for her husband
After hearing some young man tell
her that he was over in one of the
drug stores eating ice cream, spoke
up and told her she would find him in
the back room of that grocery.
She soon reached the front door

was up. She demanded of the gro
ceryman that he bring out John Will

June 1912 THE AMERICAN rs
An Empty Whisky Bottle
By E. Howard Brown, in Evangelical Friend

1t was in western city. A crowd
had just dispersed from the saloon OF
the Elks lodge room. A young man
with record as an automobile driver
had gladly conveyed several Of the
fellows home. 1t was only O'Clock
why go home? Chums piled upon the
three-seated machine until it looked
like it could not bear up under the
load. The driver turned it to the Yves,
and away they sped to the red-light
district of the city, three miles away
1t was almost three o'clock when the
nine young men again loaded into the
auto to return and seek their own
homes.
Some to meet wives, some who were
engaged to the highest society girls
of the city. Before they had run many
blocks they were flying through those
dark streets like maddened animal
A policeman shouted, then he fired at
the wheels, but they were gone. AS
they made last turn to cross the
vladuct the driver entirely lost control
of the machine-shall I tell the rest?
A broken, twisted auto, four white up
turned faces whose souls had gone in
to eternity in the twinkle of an eye,
another unconscious young man who
fingered in that condition for days,
while pure, innocent young woman
who loved him came from Denver
and waited and watched by his side
for his return to consciousness.
Did she know where he had been?
l don't know He lived. The driver
was unhurt except for few scratches
on his face. I looked upon that pile OF
costly machinery, and broken human
life, and heard again that in the midst
of it all were some Empty Whisky
Bottles.

street or when | met pedestrian on
the walk until was quickly brought
back to the city and the street by the
sight of something before me on the
grass beside the way.
No, it was not a snake. 1t was not
a toad, not a thing strange to citi-
zen of our city few weeks before.
But today under the law we were a
prohibition town, and the sight of an
empty whisky bottle on the sidewalk,
or SO near it, aroused my interest at
once 1t was nothing but An Empty
Whisky Bottle
| stood looking at it as if it were
some strange, unseen, and unheard-ot
machine. | looked until from its un-
corked mouth there poured forth the
story of crime, sorrow, and suffering;
of manhood wrecked, of homes de-
stroyed, of young lives DETAINED, of
money squandered, of names blacken-
ed, of positions lost, of pourhouses,
warehouses, prisons, and the road to
the gallows and Death. picked up that
flask and carried it to my study.
asked it to repeat to me some of these
things while should try to give them
to the world.
| cannot give them all for there is
one continuous cry from its open
mouth as l come in or go out. But
here are few of the scenes called
forth from this empty whisky bottle.
One day just as the children came
bounding in from school there was
shout in the street and a horse went
plunging down the street. AS they
had passed our back yard the buggy
had struck the curb as the horse had
turned to miss passing dray on the
other side. A young man was thrown
with considerable force into the yard
and his head had struck the curb. We
were all excited and soon crowd
gathered around the unconscious man.
The boys brought water while | re-
turned and telephoned a nearby phys
ician to come at once.
The Trouble Found.
A few minutes later, as the eyes
were opened and the man came back
to consciousness, the doctor rose from
his examination and said, Gle is not
hurt And holding UP an empty
whisky bottle said, Here is the
trouble" A half hour later brother
of the drunken man came and took
him away. Here was young man
with a good position, disgracing him
self, bringing also upon his relatives
sorrow and disgrace, and building up
barriers that sooner or later must
cause him to lose his position and seek
a lower one.

undertakes TO divert public thought from

his own connection with the Standard Oil

Does Roosevelt deny that the Steel
Trust and Standard oil concerns inter
lock. or that one Of them Is not Just as
wicked as the other? What difference
as IL make whether Roosevelt got
money from Standard OIL. when MS chief
adviser now is George w. Perkins. the
