CALLS BIBLE BOARDS
FOES OF H GOSPEL
DIR. Gates Charges That Parts
Of Inspired Writings
Are Suppressed.
HE WANTS ALL PRINTED

The Rev. Or. Milo II Gates made
IN attack on the Bible societies OF this
country and England in an address yes
terday at the popular vesper service
in the Chapel Of the Intercession. Trinity
parish.
THE time has come said DR.. Gates,
when all real Professionals should de-
mand from the Bible societies the whole
Bible. One OF the greatest Libraries OF
sacred. writings is contained In what is
known as the 'Apocrypha.' In that is
contained such wonderful books as The
Wisdom of solomon 'Eeelesiasticus'
and The Song of the Tree children
from which comes the h.'ln called 9Th
Benedicite.' sung each Sunday by MILL
ions OF Christians.
THE Bible societies each year Hood
ministers with their appeals, yet II is
the fault of the Bible societies that
this wonderful part has been stolen from
the Bible. II these societies were truly
Protestant they would not commit such
a grievous theft. They would not keep
the Bible from the common peopic.
CaIIs Them Enemies Of Bible.
at was not until 1926 that the ProteS-
tant churches refused to print these
books as part of the Bible. To-day
therefore, the societies stand before the
Christian world as the great enemies OF
the Bible. They are all largely subsi-
'lized. II is difficult for m private
publisher to compete with them, As n
result the Bibles in general circulation
are mutiliatcd Bibles.
"In another aspect they stand as In
imical to the Bible. Their o are
'nartistic II as n general thing badly
printed. in the worst possible taste,
"What we need to-day Is either a ne

The Rev. Henry -. Dwight, secretary

20 the charge of DIR, Gates with the
assertion that 'The Apocrypha" was
never considered to have divine inspira-
ton. az mad the other books of the

Billy Dixon's Daughter Married

Canyon, Texas, September 8.-A
memorable event in the warfare
that was waged against the plains
Indians of the southwest was re-
called by old settlers in the marriage
on September 2nd of Miss Dora
Dixon to Emmett Coble at the home
of her mother, Mrs. Olive Dixon,
at this place. Mr.. Coble is the son
of w. H. Coble, pioneer cattleman
of Miami, Roberts county, Texas.
His bride is the oldest daughter of
the late Billy Dixon, the noted
scout and plainsman, who led the
fight when Buffalo hunters from
Dodge City, Kansas, were besieged
for days at Adobe Walls in June,
1871.
The hunters were attacked by
the combined forces of the Kiowas,
Comanches, Cheyennes apd Arap-
ahoes, their leaedr being the fam
Gus Chief Quanah Parker, of the Co
.manches. This was the first real
buffalo hunting south of the Arkan-
sas river. The Indians on the
plains resisted the invading hunters.
They were beaten off at Adobe Walls
and later the campaign of General
Miles forever broke their power in
the southwest.
Billy Dixon soon after built his
home on the site of the old Adobe
Walls and lived there for many
years as a bachelor. He married
late in life, and his daughter, Dora,
was born in 1895, on the spot where
one of the greatest fights in south
western Indian warfare was Yaged.
General Miles presented r!Dixon
with the medal of honor, granted by
Congress for conspicuous valor and
gallantry in an encounter with In
dians at Buffalo Wallow, in the Tex
las Panhandle, while Mr.. Dixon and
his companions were carrying dis
patches TO Fort Supply. "

1915 FAIR Is A GREAT SUCCESS
Agricultural and Stock Exhibits
Were Good. Entertainment Fea-
lures Pleasing TO Big Crowd.

The seventh annual exhibition Of
the Union County Fair Association,
which closed Friday night, was one
of the most successful in the his
tory of the association. The agri-
cultural exhibits, owing to the back
ward season, were not quite up to
standard, but by their variety and
quality showed the agricultural
advantages of the county to good
advantage. The stock exhibit, horses
cattle, hogs and sheep, were as good
as can be seen at any county fair
tn the United States All other
exhibits were first class. -
1t is impossible to give complete
list and names of winners in this
issue. Next issue of The News will
show complete awards of judges,
and also winners of the various
races.

Guilty COnScienceS

The editor Of a newspaper in a
nearby town borrowed a gun from a
friend the other day to go hunting,
When he appeared with it on the
street, he noticed a peculiar agita-
tion among the denizens of the
town. People rushed from door TO
door and little crowds gathered in
the doorways and windows to watch
him pass along. The editor was
thinking about the vacation ahead
of him, but his face, from habit,
was set and stern. Suddenly a man,
Drawer than the rest, rushed up
with a dollar bill in his Outstretched
hand. Bill he said, "Old boy, I've
been intending to hand you this dol
Ior for six months. It's for the
subscription | owe you" The editor
gasped, almost tainted, caught him
self and manfully accepted the
proffered dollar with a look which
said go onl Damn the torpedoes!'
The man rushed away, and several
Others braved the editors gun and
paid up their back bills. Altogether
when the editor arrived at the Office
he had a nice roll, enough TO pay
for his vacation and some left over
But a surprise awaited at the office
He found six bushels of potatoes
ten dozen eggs, a load of hay, two
fine hogs, a flrkin of butter, two
bushels of corn and gallon of hard
cider. I'm the center of his desk
was a large placard, and somebody
I had written on it!
Dear Bill: All the boys have
paid up in full. Put up your guT
and be friends again"
The editor of this paper thinks III
will step over to the nearby tOwI
and borrow Bills gun.
