MULTITUDE OF PLACES VILE.

| tell you, society that makes dis.
tinction between the man who does
wrong, and the girl when she does
wrong. is beneath my notice. Iwould
not spit on it. You know there are
a multitude of places right here in
this community that are vile.
"A great deal of the evil is brought
on by immodest dress. Why not
start dress reform by women for
women. Women do not seem to
reali ze that the chastity of men is in
their hands. Do you mean to tell
me hta men can look at some of the
girls as they are dressd today and
have pure thoughts? 1t is almost
impossible. We need reform on
dress more than civic or legislative
reform.
IA great deal of mems sin ia on the
women's shoulders. can stand and
preach on your men, hut if they know
they can go Ouut and sin without pun
ishmnt, might as well preach 10 n
lot of hogs.

DROWN BABY IN PARIS SEWER

In one year 10000 babies were found
drowned in the sewers and rivers of
Paris. Three years ago there were
$4,000 more deaths than births in
France. The situation is so bad that
France has offered reward for every
child born, and double the amount for
every male child born. At the close
of the Franco-Prussian war the popu-
lation in France and Germany was
equal. Now there are only 38,00O,-
900 people in France and 65,000,00O
in Germany.
In recent investigation of the
Michigan State Board of Health it
was found that II out of aevery 100
pregnant women did not give birth
to their children. 1t is stated that the
amount could probably be doubled,
because the facts were so hard to find.
One million children and 5000 women
annually die from this cause. Think
of it, there are 800 cold-blooded muir
ders to every 600 children born in the
world. And those who commit the
crime usually are intelligent women.
tell you that society has just about
put maternity out of fashion, but,
when you stop to consider the average
society woman, do not think mater

men pride themselves not on the nat
I ural elimination of their womanhood,
but on their knowledge of prevention.
! am sure there is not an angel in
haven that would not be glad to come
to earth and be honored with mother
hood, if God would grant them that
, privilege. What grand thing it must
be, at the end of your earthly career,
to look back on a noble and Cody
life, knowing you did all you could
to help leave this old world to God
and made your contributions in tears
and in prayers and taught your off
spring to be God-fearing, SO that when
you went you would continue to pro-
duce your noble character in your
children.
The trouble isthat while women have
children they do not care for them
Half of the women do not even take
the trouble to feed them. 1t is usually
the humber children who are raised
by their mothers, instead of being
turned over to governess.
If were the judge, would a thou
sand times rather pardon the unmar
ried girl who has been abandoned b,
her treacherous, good-for- nothing
cheating paramount, then the marriet
women who stain their hands with tn,

could waive his right to be present
when the jury returned its verdict.
Mr.. Marshall, in his argument,
quoted from the states evidence:
1T appears that the agreement of
counsel, that Frank not be present
at the reception of the verdict, was
made in the interest of Frank and

"For his protection against what 2"

constitution, against his right to Il
hearing on his trial? No! For this
protection against the consequences
of lawless anarchy, mob domination

Counsel comes here and tells us
1T was for the protection of the pris-
oner that the court did this and yet
claims he was accorded all the Or
binary strength of the law"
"Thc contention here is that in
consequence of the circumstances
which then existed, the character of
which was recognized by tho presid-
ing judge, law had ceased to reign,
terror ruled in it's stead, and fear in
the scat of justice.
THE court recognized the bank
ruptcy OF judicial procedure, recog

remained except domination and
coercion. There was no longer

Sermon to Women

think of our prostitutes and comrpre
this with the way the modern woman
raises her girls. 1t is no wonder that
81 per cent of our prostitutes are I'M

There are too many girls who mar.
ry for other causes than love. think
ambition, indulgence and laziness lead
more girls to the altar than love; girls
not actuated By love, but simply will

Boy is Killed at Rocky Gap.

Bland Messenger: One of the sad
dest accidents that has happened in
this county in many years occurred at
Rocky Gap last Thursday, when Clar-
ence Tolbert, the 1O-year old son of
David Tolbert, shot and instantly kill
ed Earl, the 10-year old son of w. II.
Perkins.
The Tolbert boy had secured his
fathers pistol, and at the noon recess
of the school the Perkins boy told him
to the policeman and arrest him, and
not knowing the gun was loaded point
ed it at the latter and pulled the trig-
ger. The ball struck the boy below
the eye and penetrated the brain.
This is n very lamentable affair and
the parents of the unfortunate boy
have our sympathy.
This should be a lesson to parents
not to leave loaded gun in the
reach of children.

France the charnel house of the world
And America, we of our boosted intel

preaching the same doom, until it be-
hooves somebody with grit and cour-
age to preach against the prevailing
sins, and run the risk of mourning
the displeasure of people who divert
public attention from their own vice
ness, rather than condemn themselves
for the way they are living. They say
the man who is preaching against it
is vulgar, rather than the one who did
it was vile.
Vanity, social aspirations, ignorance
and venereal diseases are conspiring
against thousands of unborn children.
Listen to this: / have an Associat-
ed Press clipping of statistics show
ing the number of children born in
fashionable flats, where the residents
pay big sum just for rent.
In 100 of these apartments there
were z babies; in 90 apartments there
were 2 babies; in 80 apartments there
was baby. This was among the
people who were able to clothe and
feed family, but they would rather
have automobiles, yachts and cham
payne than children.
Statistics taken of the number of
births in 70 more apartments showed
that these families combined had A
children; in rs apartments there was l

gathered from working families:
In 48 families there were $50 ba-
bies; in another 81 families there
were 78 babies, and in 40 families we
have 102 babies.

The following is Billy Sundays
famous sermon to women, delivered in
Philadelphia last Friday:
| do not know how many hundreds
of times l haze delivered this message,
but always with a certain embarass-
ment which l am sure will always
cling to me as long as / live; and
feel called on to speak the plain truths
of this sermon, which | feel with my
heart and my soul.
My text is taken from ii Kings, iv,
26, Is it we'll with thee; is it well with
thy husband; is it we'll with thy child?
You remember the prophet Elisha
and his journey to the school of proph-
cts up to Mount Carmel. They had
no hotels then as we have, and people
had to open their homes to stran-
gers. There was woman who no
ticed the actions and conduct of a man
of God, and she said to her husband:
"Let us build a little room and place
therein bed and bowl and pitcher,
that he might make it his home"
The suggestion evidently met with
the approval of the husband, because
ever afterward the man of God en-
joyed this hospitality. l sometimes
thought she might have been new
woman of the olden times, because
no mention is made of the husband.
You never hear of some old Holsters
unless they are fortunate enough to
marry woman who does things, and
their name is always mentioned in
connection with what the wife does.
You know that there are homes in
which the advent of one, two and pos
sibly three children is considered a
curse instead of blessing. God, in
lis providence, has often denied the
honor of maternity to some women.
there are married women who shrink
from maternity, not because of ill
health, but simply because they love
ease, because they love fine garments
and want to futter at dances like but
terfies.
While / was in Iowa doctor came
to me and said: 'Wont you preach a
special sermon to women?" | replied
81 haven't the nerve; but if do feel
urged to do so, what shall l talk
about?"

F0RCER IS BELIEVED CAUGHT
MAN SUSPECTED OF FORGING
CHECKS HERE Is ARRESTED
IN NEBRASKA

Sheriff Paul Felix is today in Bridge
port, Nebraska, and is expected to re-
turn from there tomorrow with Chas.
Manson, who is suspected Of having
forged several checks on local firms
and passed them successfully recently.
The local authorities were notified that
the man had been arrested at Angora,
Neb., Tuesday.
Saturday, July "a, man who gave
his name as w. j. Langdon and who
posed as a government agent, passed
several bad checks here, one at the H.
J. LaFond grocery store and one at
the F. E. Lewis store. He secured
about $40. At the Buckman hotel,
where he was staying, he told the pro.
prietor that he was lookin" for an Of
fender and in the evening stated that
two other deputies had caught the man
and We're coming here On No. 10, at
1887 in the evening. He was taken
to the train in an automobile, the uus
hlready having gone over.
At the station he told the same
story and when the train pulled in he
jumped on and returned few minutes
later saving that the officers were
taking the prisoner on through to St.
Paul. He asked n. P. Special Agent
Hub Friesinger to send him his grip,
which he had left in the baggage
room. and he then boarded the train
and disappeared.
He was heard Of again the following
Monday as he had passed several bad
checks at St. Cloud, having forged To-
cal business mems names. No trace
Of him could be found, however and
the only clue was the suit case. This
was opened and was found to contain
articles valued at about $40. The name
Chas. Manson was found on several
!, articles in the case. Recently the To-
cal passenger agent received letter
asking that the suit case he forwarded
to Galesburg, I'll. The letter was sign
ed with woman's name. The suit
case was sent to Galesburg and the
authorities there instructed to arrest
. the person calling for it.
The case remained in the station at
: Galesburg for some time and one day
the passenger agent at that place re-
ceived letter askino that the suit
case be forwarded to Angora, Neb. The
authorities at that place were also Civ
en- instructions to arrest the person
calling for it and on Wednesday the
local authorities received a telegram
stating that the man had been arrest
ed. Sheriff Felix went there to get
him Wednesday afternoon and is ex-
pected back tomorrow.
