back as he can remember his child
life was sweetened by his mother and
elder sisters telling of little brother
that he had in Heaven. This little
brother had been taken to Heaven be-
fore the writer was old enough to re-
member him, and from that day to
this the writer's idea of Heaven is
that it is the most beautiful place of
which he has ever heard; not al
together because Cody preachers have
pictured it so, not because poets have
sung of its beauty, not because the
Good Book has thus described it to
me, but because in the long, long ago,
when my little heart was innocent and
pure, my sweet mother told me that
my little brother Bob had gone there
to live forever. Who knows but that
the story of the sweet life little Sam
uel William told to his brothers who
are left will anchor a hope of Heaven
in their young hearts that all the
storms, doubt and uncertainty that
may come into their lives in the flu
ture can not uproot nor tear away?
Heaven is nearer and dearer since he
has gone there to live forever.

A REMEMBRANCE Of LITTLE
SAMUEL WILLIAM DAASDY
By UNCLE AMOS.

Last Sunday at o'clock at Old
Steep Hollow Cemetery, there was en-
acted scene of common everyday
occurrence, considering it from the
viewpoint that the world generally
takes of such things. 1t was simply
the funeral of baby-just one little
! baby. The friends of the parents gath
cred at the church. The good minister
of God read from the Holy Bible and
offered words of tenderest sympathy,
offering all the consolation that could
be given through the hope of better
life. After which the little body was
lowered into the ground, words of con-
dolence were expressed to the young
parents, and tender good-byes were
said to them and all was over so far
as the outward world will ever see or
feel. We are told that somewhere in
the world baby dies at every tick
of the clock. If this be true, no Won
der the world is made to soon forget
and feel the sadness of such scenes.
But what is the real scene in such
an occasion? A little red-cheeked
baby, the precious darling of the happy
home, stricken with some dread dis
ease, and each day the little red face
grows paler, the little angel form
grows weaker and more emaciated,
and the loving parents become more
anxious about the little sufferer; the
family physician goes to the full limit
of his skill and ability, still the dread
malady makes it's way, sometimes
slowly, sometimes more rapidly, but
surely, until finally the light in the
little eyes goes out, the little heart
ceases to beat and the little form lies
limp in death. The young parents
hearts are all bruised and broken, the
home is left indeed desolate, and they
feel that their whole lives are ruined !
In that home is little empty cradle,
a little vacant baby chair, tiny pair
of half-worn shoes, some little baby
clothes that are too precious to ever
be worn again, a curl of sunny hair
a baby picture with its dimpled arms
and cheeks showing the sweet smiles
of innocence and happiness in its
bright face and eyes, some prints of
baby fingers on the window panes that
would not be spoiled out for the world.
Such scenes are sad beyond descrip.
ton, yet they always precede and fol-
low the funeral of every sweet baby.
Thus it is in the home of the parents
of little Samuel William Dansby, the
bright, sweet little boy referred to
above. For less than two short years
he came to brighten and bless that
happy home. He was an unusually
bright and comely child, which makes
his untimely taking away all the
sadder and harder to bear. Yet we
must console ourselves with the
thought that the only way to consider
such dispensations Of an all-wise and
merciful God is that He makes no
mistakes and what He does is for our
good.
One of the sweetest membranes
in the life of the writer is that as far

"SATAN" ENDORSED BY
 LEADING MINISTERS

The ministers of the city of Enid, Okla, accepted an invitation in a body to see the great masterpiece of humanity better known as Satan, that they might pass their judgment on its morality and other good qualities, and they are all frank to say and agree that this great masterpiece is by far the best in many ways that they have ever seen exhibited on motion picture curtain, and are free to recommend this to all classes of people. While they are not in favor of many of the motion picture houses of today, they agree that this picture has great possibility of removing the objections against the motion picture houses, and has great possibilities of accomplishing an untold amount of good in an educational way, as well as raising man to a higher standard. in this body of ministers was one of the most noted evangelists in the United States, Lincoln Mcconnell, who had just completed six weeks meeting here with 1000 people ac- cepting Christ. He said that he had visited many of the best motion pie ture houses, and at no time had he ever witnessed a better motion pie ture.
 This picture, in six reels, will be
 shown at the Grand in this city next Friday night. Admission, 10c.

Washington, June 27.-The Federal government is considering quick to have Canada deport Jack Johnson, under a years sentence for violation of the white slave law. Off, ficials of the department of justice to- day began investigation of the negro's presence in Montreal and gave parti- cular attention to the statement of Charles F. Dewoody, special agent at Chicago, that although the offense which Johnson was convicted is not eXtraditable it is the custom of the Canadian immigration authorities to eXpel aliens convicted of crime.
 Officials confirmed MT. Dewoody's statement that the offense is not ex- traditable and pointed out that when the case was before the supreme court on the question of bail the government attorney declared if Johnson escaped to Canada he could not be extradited.

 There was a lull in the inquiry to- day. Owing to the fact that the Dem- ocratic caucus is actively engaged on the tariff bill it has been decided not to resume the sessions until the bill has been reported to the Senate which will be about week hence.

Senate Lobby Committee Will Bring About Arrests
 in the Near Future.
LEDYARD IS CALLED
Men Higher Up in New York Are Be. Iieyed to Be the InstigatOrS
 of Plan.

Washington, June 27-''Before we are through with this investigation" :" said member Of the Senate Lobby Investigating Committee tonight, q suggest that we shall be able to show that some one in Wall Street has been doing very profitable business through the sales of members of Con- gress who he was never able to deliv- er"
 "It goes to show what a flighty set the big men ill Wall Street are. For some reason they will deal with any body who claims to be able to invoke official power without ever stopping to investigate. Seemingly, all man has to do is to declare himself in a deal on the threats of exposure and he all Wall Street men are crooked.
 "Its merely tendency which I am trying to illustrate. Wall Street will buy a man rather than have any pub licity. Here's the case which Judge Lovett brings out A man telephoning all kinds of threats through his sup posed influence with great big men in Washington. Yet it had to be dragged out of Judge Lovett. If this investi- gation had not been started primarily to insuire into the tariff lobby, no one would have ever heard of this scoundrel who made use of the names of Congresmen Palmer and Riordan in such a lavish fashion. I believe we are on his track and believe that by the time we are through it will be difficult for anyone else to play this sort of a game"
 The Senate Committee Is determin- ed to drag into the light the mysteri- ous man who made this use of the telephone. His identity is known to moral certainty His telephone calls have been traced back and they lead direct to the man who is under sus- pcion. There is a grave suspicion too, that this man has not been Oper- ating alone He has had advantage of expert legal advice and so far as the investigation has developed whi hichNis somewhat further than is indicated by the public hearings, he has covered himself in such way; to beeimmune from prosecution.
 For the present the efforts of the committee will be devoted to this task ! of uncovering the mysterious tele- phoner and his associates and meting out to them a punishment which is possible. Senator Overman, chairman of the committee, said this evening:
 ''The Committee of which I am chairman intends to go to the bottom of this thing and disclose the mysteri- ous person who has been claiming to speak for congressman"
 A subpoena has gone out for David Lamar who must come to Washing ton willingly or be brought here, on a federal warrant. Incidentally sub poenas were ordered today for Louis | Cass Ledyard who talked with the
