AND

Today the Salvation Army is
the greatest evangelistic organiza-
ton in the world. The poke-bon-
neted Army lassie is a familiar
sight in every country on earth
with the single exception Of Rus
STA. They are "waging Gods bat
tie" even in Iceland. They have
laid siege to Russia and 1t is re-
ported that even that empire is
on the point of capitulation. Their
battle cry is heard In every COM
monwealth of the United States;
more than 900 "'outposts," or mis-
sions, r located in nearly every
city and town. In these meeting
places more than 10, 100000 Ameri-
cans gather during a years time,
to listen to the exhortations of
nearly 1000 officers, of both sexes,
that make up the Salvation Army
in the United States. The street
corner meeting Is a familiar sight
in every part of the world. More
than $50, 900 Of these are held
every year in this country at
which over $4,000 recruits have
been gathered in a twelve month
to the Army's ranks from the con-
gregations.
Our war is a war of mercy" they
proclaim and it is witnessed by
the world wide charity of the
organization. 1t has established
in the United States nearly 100
workingmen's hotels which ac-
commodate annually more than
1000, 900 persons; over 100 Indus
trial Homes where about 3,000,-
900 meals have been served in a
year; about 80 reset and ma
ternity homes where 5000 girls
and children find shelter.

THEN

Forty-nine years ago today the
worlds first meeting of the Sal
walton Army was held. 1t took
place in an old patched tent erect
ed in an ancient burial ground in
the White chapel district of Lon
don. The first preacher was Will
linn Booth, a clergyman who was
at that time without a church. He
had been called upon to take the
place of the regular minister,
who was lying i'll at his home.
The first congregation was made
up Of a mass of poor people, many
of them evidently without God, or
hope in the world" After the
meeting Booth hurried to his home
and exclaimed to his wife: Kate
I have found my destiny! AS l
passed by the doors of the flaming
gin palaces tonight, I seemed to
hear a voice sounding in my ears.
Where can you find such heathens
as these and where is there so
great need for your labors? And
there and then in my soul I I
ed myself and you and our chill
dren up to this great work" This
was the beginning of a world
wide organization. From that day
meetings were held regularly. On
the third Sunday the tent blew
down and was wrecked beyond
repair. Having no money for an
other and without funds to rent a
building, Booth preached in the
open air. Finally he secured the
use of an old dance hall that was
not In use on Sundays. Weekday
meetings were held in a dilapi-
dated shed, formerly a storehouse
for old rags. AS the army grew
it was forced into the streets;
narrow alleys, abandoned saloons,
or unoccupied theatres became
Salvation Army chapels.

Old Men Like NoxeIs

I asked the custodian of a large
library about the fashion in books,
says a writer in the Philadelphia
Ledger.
Most Of the men above fifty" said
he, who come here read novels. The
young women also ask for fiction.
When it comes to men from twenty
to fifty, many more of them want
scientific books dealing with present
day affairs, like politics, financial
questions and history, or books Of
travel" ,
l asked him what the elderly wom-
Ell preferred.
Very fCT come" he replied.
AS for poetry, this custodian said
there seemed now to be no desire
whatever. Re-reading of the old po-
m does not appear to interest elder
ly people, and the younger folks have
not acquired the taste for verse,

Schefferizinq at Fergus,

Last nights Fergus Falls Journal
printed the following story from the
city police court: Ralph Lightfoot
was brought in justice court Tuesday
charged with drunkenness. In this
instance he would come under the
Scheffer law and the court had about
decided to sen the young man over
the river, but on account of his family,
consisting of a wife and children his
sentence was suspended under good
behavior for the period in big round
numbers, of 1870 days. The city off,
Gals have decided to AXE this course
in a few other instances.

Cover Bottles With Leather.

In carrying a small bottle, for In
stance, OF medicine on a voyage, it Is
an excellent plan to make a leather
covering for 1t, and this is easily done.
In this way If the bottle breaks there
is no danger from wounds caused by
the glass, and the cover acts as a
good protector. For a square section
bottle, trace the profile on a piece Of
leather four times side by side, and
add the small square representing the
bottom, to n of the profiles. Cut
ting out with the scissors, this makes
only one at the end to be sewed
up, also the parts at the neck Of the
bottle and the bottom piece.

Here and Hereafter.

The Taller tells the story Of an old
Scotchman whose wit was edged with
pessimism. One morning he met at
her gate a .neighbor whose husband
was seriously i'll. "...,
"And hoo's yer husband this morn
ing, Mrs. Tamson?" he asked, solicit
tously.
"Oh, he's awful bad! The doctor
said his temperature has gone to 1901"
mae, nae, you've made a mistake!
Sandy's temperature could never be
as muckle as2150-at least, not in this
world" be added. as an afterthought.

Evening C;rain Letter.

Chicago, July 2.-Wheat has shown
considerable strength today due to
higher cables and better Minneapolis
prices. Large local shorts have cov-
cred freely while hedging sales against

one house selling 400, 600 bushels July
against same. There were reports of
black rust from northwest, but they
were pretty generally denied, weather
being u~nfavorable for its development.
All rallies from these prices in our
opinion should be met with sales.
Corn-This market has been very ir-
reular, weak early, later turning strong
on good speculative buying. Argentine
news has been of better tone to hold
ers here. They have offered no corn
to seaboard today and Buenos Ayres
reports Urgent call for nearby arrivals
from interior. Corn is a purchase on
all soft spots.
Oats-Opened easier with corr but on
influential buying by large elevator
concerns turned strong and scored a
fair advance. We look for higher pric-
es on September oats.

Grain Opinions.

Ware & Leland-We believe that
sales are proper on any upturn.
Fitch & Cove look for the sell
turns.
Lamson Bros.-Except on sharp
bulges it appears unwise at the mo-
ment to sell wheat short.
Harris Winthrop & Co.-While not
favoring any sales on weak places, we
still advise selling the September on
bulges.
Logan & Bryan-The wheat situation
justifes selling on the swells unless
situation in northwest becomes serious.
