promotion of particular principles of
human right. The United States were
founded, not to provide free homes,
but to assert human rights. This flag
meant a great enterprise of the hu-
man spirit. Nobody, no large bodies
of men, in the time that fag was first
set up believed with a very firm be-
lief in the efficacy of democracy. Do
you realize that only so long ago as
the time of the American revolution,
democracy was regarded as an expert
ment in the world, and we were re-
garded as rash experimenters? But
we not only believed in it; we showed
our belief was well founded and that
nation as powerful as any in the
world could be erected upon the will
of the people: that, indeed, there was
power in such a nation that dwelt
in no other nation unless also in that
other nation the spirit of the people
prevailed.
owe now know, and the world
knows, that the thing that we then
undertook, rash as it seemed, has been
practicable and that we have set up
in the world government maintain

science and the general conviction"

INTERESTING SEET.1:'S; 'sas:
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Many Assemble TO Bid "God
Speed" to Miss Lora Clement
Who Leaves on October 5fh
for Vancouver as Missionary.

A large and interested congregation
gathered at the First Baptist church
Sunday evening to bid God speed to
MISS Lora Clement, who leaves on the
9th of October to represent the First
church on the foreign field.
The Methodists and Presbyterians
united with the Baptists in this SER
vice and short talks were made by
Rev. l.. Daniel, pastor of the Grace
Methodist church; Rev. J. F. Mathe-
son, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church and Rev. ]. d. Croft, pastor of
he Second Baptist church. Each one
congratulated the church upon having
one of their number in the foreign
field and paid high tribute to the
young woman who had given her life
to this work.
Rev. George P. White, pastor of the
First Baptist church, stated that the
church felt that she had been pecul-
iarly blessed in having a representa-
tive on the foreign field and would pro-
vide for Miss Clements support and
outgoing expenses.
Just before the close of the services
Miss Clement delibered an address
which was appropriate and inspiring
She expressed herself as feeling hon
ored that she was called to this work
and except for leaving her loved ones
there was no sadness in her heart by
reason of having to go. She spoke
for 20 minutes and the large congre-
CATION listened attentively and with
sympathy.
Miss Clement will leave on the 5th
of October for Vancouver, where she
will join a party of missionaries re-
turning to their work in the foreign
land.

TANK CAR BRINGS
DEATH AND LOSS
GASOLINE EXPLODES IN ARD
MORE RAILWAY YARDS.
Forty Known Killed-TwO Hundred
Injured and Property Damage of
About Half Million in Okla
hOma Town.

Ardmore, Okla, Sept. 27.-At least
two score dead, 200 persons injured
and property damage of approximate
ly $500,000 tonight were considered
conservative estimates of the havoc
| wrought here today by the explosion
of car of gasoline in the Santa Fe
| railroad yards.
The force of the explosion wrecked
dozen or more buildings in the inn
mediate vicinity of the railroad yards
and scattered burning oil over the
business district, starting fires which
for a time threatened to sweep
through the city. The fires were
brought under control early tonight.
The cause of the explosion has not
been determined. Several men were
at work on the car repairing leak at
the time and one theory advanced was
that spark from hammer ignited
the escaping gas fumes. The bodies
of the workmen were torn to frag-
ments.
The city was placed under martial
law tonight and a systematic search
of the wrecked buildings begun. In
rescue parties removed the bodies of
Is persons, several charred beyond
recognition and others so badly man
gled as to make Identification difficult.
The buildings destroyed include the
union passenger and freight stations,
used jointly by several roads; the
Wilmington hotel, Madden & Co.'s
department store, Pennington Whole
sale Grocery company, Swift and De-
Witt Cigar company. Not building
on Main street escaped damage and
practically every pane of glass in the
city was shattered.
All of the guests of the Wilmington
hotel are believed to have. escaped
without serious injury. Scores of
young women were employed by Mad
den & Co. and at late hour tonight
some still were unaccounted for.
All public buildings were converted
into temporary hospitals tonight and
physicians and nurses hurried here
from nearby towns on special trains
aided in caring for the wounded.
Thirty-one bodies had been taken
from the ruins of wrecked buildings
before midnight. At that hour large
part of the wreckage still was un-
explored. OF the known dead 10 were
white persons.
The city's electric light service was
cut off early tonight because of dan
ger from wires torn from their fasten-
ings by the explosion and with rescue
parties making their way through the
wreckage by the light of pine torches
and lanterns the ruins of the business
district presented a weird spectacle
The piteous appeals of hundreds of
women, pleading to be allowed to
search the debris for missing relatives,
added to the horror. A hundred spe-
cial policemen were sworn in to aid
in holding the crowds in check.
