In Washington the Nations Capital and the most important
city of the world, could well initiate.
quote from the Dallas Tex, correspondence of the
Kansas City Times:
"Every afternoon at O'Clock the bell of the Verbena
church rings 1t continues to ring for two minutes and
while its brazen song is lifted the people of Verbena stand
and pray With heads uncovered and bowed each each
woman each child each saint and each sinner repeats these
words:
God bless President soldiers and the nation guide
them to pictoy!
'When the sound begins the observance of its call is
universal Men halt the street, wagons pulled up on
the road; rise from their knitting pause in their
cooker-for they have early suppers in Verbena-ths
powman has his work. and each repeats the prayer Vel

that who have been known pray before

Which of these victims of Virgnias grim tragedy is

The lives of these two will from now on consist
principally of memories.

husband the father of her child sober and dependable
workman who had the respect of his employers and his

upon and in that memory she will find comfort that Will
soften grief and dull the edge of SORROW.
The other will remember home in which she found no
happiness neglected baby dying in her absence love
unhoy and life unclean, blood d-staned garment and
Heless man whose death she helped to plan.
And always prison walls and bars and creakng bolts
and grinning turkeys rattling their keys
