or service for men only and whatever
remark he may have made to the king
did not affect him other than causing
him to be put in prison. As a matter of
fact there were no meetings for "men
only" in the time of which Rev. Beall
speaks, and his citations certainly do
not dispose of "Editor Smith's state
ments." Rev. Beall is unable to find a religious
meeting for "men only" earlier than the
time of Moody, and the proposition that
they are a late invention is sustained.
just what he would
catch trout, and big ones at that.
After awhile, when notes were compar
etl, it was found that some fine trout
had been captured, and Mr Brown had
hooked a particularly fine specimen.
One of the party could only show for
his pains a sucker about the size of Mr.
Brown's trout. In the camp the man
who caught the sucker held a few niin-

and the party awaited developments.
Supper was served, and Mr. Brown,
with a most engagingsuavity of manner
told of the pleasures of trout fishing.
My reverend friend's statement as to antl particularly of trout eating. "Of
the number of boys who attended his
"sermon" two weeks ago is as unreliable
as his Biblical references. There wete
twenty-five at least. Rev. Beall says he
has taken the full theological course
and spent from ten to twenty years in
actual work. This is a serious accus
ation to make against the theological
course. And in closing I would remind
my ministerial friend that so long as he
Ex-CJovernor Roberts, of Texas is a
queer character. Recently he was call

course, he said, "borne of you fellows
maybe content with suckers, but as for
me I always eat trout and nothing but
trout." Then the fish was brought on.
The cook handed Mr. Brown's trout to
the man who caught the sucker, and
the sucker was passed to Mr. Brown.
And the party waited in silence. "Doc"
took the bait and swallowed it. He

"But no." he hesitated, "you're not

He paused for another moment.
"Fellow Citizens, then"
He stopped again.
"No. you're not citizens, either."
The governor grew impatient for want

confined himself to preaching the gospel bones, but he kept right on, all the while
the "average newspaper manr
ing to say."
C. M. Clark who frequently gives the
public the benefit of his views in com
munications in the daily newspapers of
this city, has a -dressed the chairman of
the Union Veteran Republican club
suggesting the formation of a "non-par
tisan political soldiers club." Mr. Clark
ays: "I was a republican for several
.ears. I soon learned to my satisfaction
that no citizen could be truly loyal to a
government of, for and by the people,
and at the same time loyal to a faction
or a party, than he could have been
truly loyal at once, both to the stars
and bars and the stars and stripes."
Mr. Clark, unable to find a party to
suit him, formed one all by himself,
and he flocks together continually. The
man who cannot be loyal to his govern
ment and at the same time support any
one of the principal parties is a freak,
and he should hasten to join Mr. Clark.
There have been political parties since
man has walked the earth, and there
always will be. And while they have,
in connection with many other good
thing, contained much that is base, they
have given to the world monuments of
nobility, of patriotism, of independence,
of liberty that will ever stand. Mr.
Clark can hardly be loyal to the gov
ernment until until he shall get away
from his present unwavering loyalty to
Mr. Clark, and join 6omo great party
for the upbuilding of the country and
the improvement of the people's condi
tion.

like Charles Lamb's dissertation on
roast pig. He illustrated his remarks
now and then by pointing to the rapidly
disappearing sucker on his plate. It
was at this time that one of the rough
men of the frontier emitted some highly
emphasized remarks about "tenderfeet,"
that were not intended for publication.
Mr. lirown didn't see the point how
ever, and he finished his sucker alias
trout. Afterwards it took the entire
party sereral hours to convince him
that he didn't know sucker from trout
when he had it in his mouth. -Doc's"

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatement. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the disea
se, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith in
its curative powers, that they offer

it fails to cure. Send for list of Testi
