America, known and beloved by of thousands ev-
cry state where great temperance campaign has been
waged He is of the moat unique figures on the
American platform. He is equally at home whether he
is firing army of devoted temperance wshers into
active militsntO, playing with street mob holding
them in the hollow Of his hand and making them laugh
at their folly.
Whenever he reaches town something has started.
He has been arrested 40 times and imprisoned IL tnes

Harvest in Stafford county is now
less than two weeks in the future.
The recent good rains will put the
harvest off a few days, but it will
be all the better for it. While the
crop has been cut short by the ex-
IRENE dry weather in some localities,
especially from st. John to the coun-
ty line west, still there are sections
of the county that will produce splen-
did wheat. Especially is this true
of the south and southeast part of
the county. The News has heard all
kinds of guesses as to the probable
average yield for the county, but
most Of the wheat raisers believe
that ten bushels per acre will not
miss it farsi. John Weekly News.

Dedication at Windhorst.

A large crowd OF people from Kins.
ley and vicinity are attending the
dedicatory exercises of the beautiful
Catholic church at Windhorst today.
This church has been erected at a
cost of $4,000 and is one Of the
most beautiful church buildings in
the state, and the interior finish
and furnishings are marvels Of the
chaste artistic elegance. As a whole
it is an inspiring tribute to devotion
as well as a splendid exemplification
of the progress and prosperity of the
sterling people Of that community.
The dedication services began at
ten O'Clock and at twelve dinner will
be served in the old church. The at.
ternoon program will begin at two
O'Clock with ball game. Following
this will be a potato race and other
novelty events, concluding with a

program of dances will begin.-Kin-
