next trial.
1t is a long way from Washington
to Georgia, but my heart is with you
in this fight for liberty To me the
U. S. Courts are as bull with ring
in his nose to be led around by these
Catholic societies. Doesn't it seem
that way? May you live long and
enjoy prosperity and God grant you
His protection in your fight against
the hierarchy is the prayer of your
Washington State friends.
With best wishes for your success.

Dear Sir: I returned home last
week after five weeks stay in
Louisville. Mr.. Hughes and DR.. Cor
nelson returned few days before
I left and told me of their visit with
you.
The day left the city I called at
the home in company with a Saliva
ton Army officer. The Mother Su-
perior told me that the girl left there
in November, 1909, instead of June,
as she wrote me in her letter of Feb
ruary, 1915. Also, she said there
were sisters in the institution who
were there when the girl was there
and that perchance we could get in
touch with my sister through some
members of her class, who are mar
ried, and possibly others who are
single. She promised to make an
investigation and write me. I firmly
believe that they know the where
abouts of my sister.
AS to publicity, as I see it, that is
my only hope. About one thousand
copies of my pamphlet have been
distributed. Unless | get some in
formation to tho contrary in two or
three months, | am going to put out
a new edition that will contain some
hot shot"
| thank you for your kind offer.
The Free Press Defense League came
to my assistance in a most critical
time. Should the case develop in
such way that we will need as
slstance I will let you know.
Please have you advertising man

Weather and Crops

The snow storm of last Thursday
continued until very fine fall of snow
had dampened up things in good shape,
continuing until Friday morning. Ear
" Friday, snow stopped falling, but
the wind kept it disagreeable, blowing
the wet snow as much as was possible.
1t was the worst blizzard of the season,
but mild compared to some we have
seen here.
We have not seen an estimate of how
much water the snow would make, but
it was enough to wet the ground down
in good shape. From reports, we
gather that Raymer must have been
about in the storm center, as from each
direction We find that the snow fall
was not as heavy as here.
!. Saturday ard Sunday saw warmer
weather and the snow melted rapidly
ustil Monday the farmers were able te
resume their field work where it was
not too sticky Wednesday evening
saw another change and little snow
was on the ground this morning, bu,
before noon the skies cleared and nov
the sun is shining, the birds singing
wheat and grass growing green, har,
bingers of another bumper crop.

lo;s White eeso,,

Lois White Beson was born in Burr
Oak township, Mitchell county, Iowa,
December 4, 1888. She moved with
her parents to Usage in 1903. As a
girl she attended the public schools and
also attended the Cedar Valley Semin-
ary from which she graduated in 1909.
She lived here until 1911, when she
went to C ,loralo VIII, re she flsd on a
government claim near Raymer, Colo.
In November, 1872, she returned to
Usage and was married January 7, 1918
to Jesse H. Beson of New Raymer,
Coo. She and her husband returned
to Colorado after their marriage and
lived there until October, 1916, when
III health caused her to return to Mitch
ell county. She rejoined her parents,
who were then living at St Ansgar,
and moved with them to Usage in De-
cember of last year. Continuous med
ical attention was afforded her, but
she continued in declining health until
her death March 3ltt.
The funeral services were held at the
home Sunday. Rev. VIM. Galbraith Of
of the St Ansgar Methodist church
preached the sermon. Burial was
made in the Usage cemetery. Usage
News.
Thursday morning, April 10, 1911.
just five years ago this morning, Lois,
the writer and his mother left Usage,
Iowa, for Raymer. From her baby
hood we had known her; seen ner, as a
it'll. tot, harness the chairs for horses
and drive them; seen develop into girl
hood, maidenhood and womanhood,
each evolution bringing added charms,
graces more sweet, until few were
more lovely and loving.
Into the life of Colorodo she slipped
most naturally, as If to our prairies
born, seeming to find here her full de-
sire-all she wished for. She loved the
country and its people, and in turn we
loved her-we never knew how much
till disease had laid its hand upon her,
yielding her only to the long, last,
dreamless sleep.
When it was thought best and her
family wished her to return to her old
home for medical treatment, she went
cheerfully, but she always longed to
come back to Colorado her home, and
her numerous letters, some of them
received here since she passed away,
showed this intense longing.
We had not thought of her as sus-
ceptible to disease: others might sick
en- but she was too strong and full Of
Astounding health to excite our fears:
SO when last summer the first alarming
symptoms were known, the nature Of
even the dread disease that had at
tackled her, could not convince US that
she would not conquer.
Even yet it does not seem possible
that she is sleeping beneath the sod in
the quiet Usage cemetery, but that We
shall see her step from the train some
day as of yore.

200 Thought Dead.

Englehart, Ont, July 31.-Definite figures regarding the loss of life in northern Ontaria through the wiping Out of half dozen towns " bush fires were still lacking today Figures at hand lead to the belief that at least 200 are dead.
 The known dead are: At Nushka, 57; Cochrane, IS; Matheson, 34; Iro- quois Falls, IT, and Ramore, IS, a total of Al. In addition it is known that there has been loss of life at Porcupine Junction, where only the railroad station escaped the flames. Outlying places are expected to ma terially swell the list of victims when rescue parties return.
 Iroquois Falls, where great paper mills are located, was not entirely burned as reported last night.
 Advices today state that the paper mills and one store were saved from the flames.
 Nushka, Matheson and Ramore were entirely burned over and Coch- rane nearly so. Houses on two of It's small avenues were saved.
 At Timmins the fire was checked in the outskirts after IT houses had been burned.
 Late reports say fires are still ra- ging in many directions but it is be- lieved the worst is over. Some rain fell during the night and helped check the fires.
