A marriage license was issued at
Paris, Texas, Tuesday, where the
prospective bridegroom is only six-

fifteen. The boy bad the consent
of bis parents to take a mate.
Dr. Munhall said Monday night
at the tent meeting that the ••offer-
jags” the night previous amounted
to only about one cent per capita of
those ia attendance ; also that such
an example of parsimony was not
only discouraging, but his experi-
ence in the work of bringing souls
to Jeius had taught him that when
the jhe .offerings were small the Al-
!e%; mighty would likewise withhold bis
blessings fjpm that community. The
inference appeared to be that when
the professed Christians were short
on giving to aid the work the Al-
mighty was pretty cert sin to let the
outsiders go^fc the devil. This is
truly rougP^Rr the unconverted.
Dr. Munhall is in ns close

as he claims to be we can
only wonder and adore with the
hope that for the sake of the thou-
sands of lost souls m Denison the

WEDNESDAY, SKrT. II.
Tbe condition of the president
Tuesday was not quite as favorsble.
It was deemed advisable to open
the wound to remove a tragment ot
tbe coat which was imbedded be-
neath the skin, causing a slight irri-
tation. This will cause some delay
in the healing process. In conse-
quence of this operation the pulse
was increased slightly. At 11130
a consulation by the physicians
lasted an hour and fifty minutes
which caused some uneasiness *0
those outside, but this was allaved
when Dr. McBurney reported that
it was decided to give the President
nourishment by mouth that night.
Miss Emma Goldman, the anar-
chist queen, whose writirgs Czolg-
esz says incited him to take the life
of President McKinley, was arrest-
ed m Chicago Tuesday and locked
up. She offered no resistance and
denied that she or any of her friends
had anything to do with the assas-
sin’s actions.
Attorneys in Oklahoma contend
that the criminal code of the Terri-
tory enacted by the Legislative As-
semby in 1899 and in force since is
null and void, in that it never re-
ceived the signature of the governor
or was ever returned by him to the
Legislature or allowed to become a
law in any legal way. If this is
true all the prisoners in the jails and
penitentiary will have to be turned
loose. A test case is now in pro-
gress.
The Cotton Belt train robbers are
still at large, with little or no pros-
pect of capture in the near future.
Three cases of death from the
careless use of coal oil was reported
in the Dallas News Wednesday.
Scarcely a day passes that such par-
graphs are not seen in tbe papers.
Coal oil and its products are more
deadly than whi-ky.
Mr. M. H. Wicks of Palestine
has invented a crude petroleum
burner that can be used in cooking
and beating stoves as well a« fur-
naces. In a test made tbe other
day by Mr. Wicks a twenty-five
horse power boiler was run for
twelve hours at a cost of 40 cents.
It is said to be very simple. We
hope Mr. Wicks will hurry up and
get bis burner on the market before
cold weather sets in. We are in
tbe grip of the wood and coal man.
On Monday it is said the execu-
tive board directed President Shsffer
together with Secretary-Treasurer
Williams, Associate Treasurer
Tigbe and Ben L. Davis, of the ad-
visory board, to settle without de-
lay on the best terms obtainable.
It looks as though the strike was
about played out.
Frank. J. Clark, fell from a win-
dow in the* second story ot the
Pearlstein building on Pearl street,
Beaumont, at 11:30 o’clock Tues-
day morning and struck on his
head on the bnck pavement. His
skull wes fearfully crushed and he
died shortly after.
A party of Texas editors passed
through Fort Wotth on the 10th on
their way to Colorado. There were
e number of ladies with the party,
which numbered twenty-fiye. They
will be absent ten days or two
weeks, visiting Denver, Salt Lake
and other points of interest.
Dr. Munhall, in bis discourse
Tuesday night, alluded incidentally
to the Roman Catholic church. He
admitted there were good Catholics
and would probsbiy admit that tbe
good ones may squeese into
heaven, but be said the trouble
with the Catholics is they make too
much of a dead Christ. He bed
traveled a great deal id Catholic
countries, and everywheie tbe rep-
resentation of a dead Cbrist was to
be seen in the churches aod cfbsses
Innumerable which were emblem-
atic of the. same idea. This sug
gertion that, the cross is an emblem
of death ia something new. Tbe
cross it one of the oldest of religious
symbols, and wherever found we
have been taught to recognise it as
an atnblem of life—not death. But
do tbe Catholics really adore a dead
Christ any more than tbe Protest-
ants ? We doubt it. In truth both
these great branches of Christianity
make much ot a dead Cbrist, for
they tell us that it is through Jesus’
death that men and women are
saved from their sins. This, then,
would seem to be a most important
feature in the Christian scheme, and
it is difficult to see how Dr. Mun-
hall can consistently belittle it. But
he says Protestants believe in
living Christ. True. But don’t
the Catholics believe the same?
Any Catholic communicant will tell
you they do. This theu appears to
be a very weak criticism. But Dr.
Munhall went further and attributed
tbe ignorance which he said exists
in South America, Mexico and
other Roman Catholic countries to
this universal teaching of a dead
Christ. What connection there
between the two unfortunately for
bis bearers he failed to explain
This ignorance be complains of is
to a great extent, accountable from
other causes. The races which the
Catholic missionaries brought under
the banner of the cross in Mexico
South America and the Antilles
were not of a high grade of intel
lectuality, and we can not honestly
compare them with ourselves, who
have been centuries advancing to
our p*?- ic’^Hectual level. But
Dr. Munhall left the i-np:?s*ion
from his criticism of tbe universities
and colleges of today that be was
not himself very favorably impressed
with present educational methods
endorsed by Protestants. He said
he believed many of the popular
theological schools were making in-
fidels. He seemed to favor educa-
tion just so tar as it did not tend to
Upset faith in tbe inspiration ot the
bible and tbe teachings ot the
church, and no further. We have
no doubt that the Pope of Rome
would give him his band on that
proposition. He was emphatic in
bis opposition to German rationalism
and no doubt looks askance at the
conclusions of such men as Dr.
Davidson, Rev. George T. Smith,
Dr. Briggs and others in Great
Britain, on the continent and ip this
Tbe editor of tbe Ml. Pleeaaat
Eegle is very much exercised for
fear the people of tfala country are
catting loose from tbe restraints of
religion because the other day a
couple ia Wisconsin, “belonging to
the better class,” after being duly
married aa the law of the state re-
quired, each signed a contract con-
taining tbe following:
“1 will live within my income
aad endeevor to save a part of tbe
same, to tbe end that we may own
home; should I find, after ex-
hausting every effott to make it
otherwise thst we are uncongenial
or mismated, I hereby pledge my
sacred word of honor that I will aot
oppose divorce proceedings, and
should a divorce be granted to either
of us, and there be offsprings,
hereby pledge my sacred word of
honor to provide for tbe same as far
as I may be able to without the in-
tervention of say court.”
There is certainly
in this contract, and we cannot see
where tbe evil result can come in.
Our laws make liberal provisions
for separation and judging from tbe
records of tbe courts relfgtous peo-
ple are by no means backward in
securing divorces, while tbe resist-
ing of such suits by either party
usually has only one result, tbe fee-
ing of hungry lawyers. If every
man and woman who gets married
would sign such a contract and live
up to it religion would lose nothing
of value in consequence.
THE HTUATIOI 18 ORITIOAL.
It Is lot Thought That the President On
In* Much Longer.
The very latest news from Presi-
dent McKinley’s bedside Is that he
patsfcd a very bad night, and bis
physicians are not very hopeful of
the result. The conditions all look
unfavorable. Tbe President has a
good stock of vitality to draw from,
and may yet get well.
When Ihe Gazetteer went to
press the President had not rallied.
His pulse was abnormally high, but
he seemed to be resting easier.
Dr. Munhall says he believes in
the old-fashioned hell. He takes the
bible literally in its description of
that place of punishment, and says
that if that portion of the bible is
not true then all of it is a lie.
Furthermore, be said Wednesday
night that tbe most heinous ot all
tins is that of unbelief. "He that
believeth not shall be damned.” We
feel sorry tor such men as the
good Bruno, Von Humboldt,
Washington, Franklin, the brave
Ethan Alien, the martyred Lincoln,
Huxley, Spencer, Haeckel, and
many other noted persons living
and dead we lvoe to honor
and respect. But possibly Dr.
Munhall is mistaken.
country, who have devoted ! their
lives to tbe study of biblical exegesis,
andattempted to trace the history and
origin of tbe sacred writings. These
men are honest, capable and relia-
ble, but to study their works is not,
apparently, tbe kind of education
Dr. Munhall wishes to see cultivat-
Organiaed labor will never sue
ceed in destroying the power of the
trusts through the medium of strikes.
Neither can they do it by physical
torce. Tbe power of the trusts is
in the immense cspital represented.
The msn whose very existence and
the existence of his wife and chil-
dren, depend upon the labor of his
hands is handicapped when be grap-
ples with millionaire organizations,
such as the steel trust. In one re-
spect and one only are the laboring
men ot this count*y superior to ihe
man of wealth, and that is at tbe
ballot box. If every man of them
would do his duty there tbe ques-
tions dividing capital and labor
would soon be solved. And tbe
ballot box is tbe proper place to
which to appeal. But the misfor-
tune is that in the past the masses
who are so vitally interested in a
satisfactory adjustment ot tbe capi-
tal and labor question, have allowed
themselves, either through igno-
rance or the hope of a little person-
al and temporary gain, to divide
their strength and thereby render
their power nugatory. We have
ed, and in this, too, we presume the I geen tWg .Hustrated time and again
Roman Catholic Doctors will agree | fa Qur ,ocal election.. We have
with kirn. So, on the whole, we
fail to see any material difference
between Protestant* (we mean such
“old time religion” Protestants as
Dr. Munhall) and the Roman Cath-
olics on tbe educational question. If
Dr. Munhall was misunderstood,
the Gazetteer is open to correc-
tion.

comparatively
speaking than any large city in this
country, tbe poorest children are fed
at noon in tbe schools. They get
in winter hot chocolate or hot bread

frames are sent to the public
schools, too famished to learn any-
thing, but wi'h mental capabilities
enough to absorb knowledge if
they had nourishment adtquste to

terest is in the prosperity of the
town, working at tbe polls on elec-
tion day for a Sherman man for

earner cannot look beyond a paltry
individual gam he need not expect
to see cspable men m office who
will look after tbe interesU of tbe
working man as against that of the

Tbs Story of a Fisherman.
Los Angeles, Cal , Aug. a**.
Col. Polk Bnrbaas, Sporting Editor of
the Sunday Gazetteer, Denison, Taf*-
Dear Sir : In my last from Av*
alon, Catalina Island, CaL, I prom-
ised to write you again, but the fact
is I have been fishing so much,
sight-seeing, meeting old friends,
and watching tbe bathers that
could not find time to write, es-
pecially as there was a concert
every evening and which wound up
at night with a dance, and all thia
kept roe busy. Ia my last I had
been after yellow tail. Well, I kept
that up for thirteen days with more
or less success, catching them, as
well as Banacuda bass, sheepbead,
Spanish mackerel, whitefish and
last, but not least, wbat is locally
known as sand dabs. They are
something like small flounder, six
to ten inches long, and considered
the finest fish tor eating caught
here, and are caught as follows:
Go out to sea from three to four
miles, using a good size line with 5
or 6-pound sinkers and fish in 300
to 400 feet of water with ten to fifteen
small hooks and fish on tbe bottom
using cut bait. Every five or ten
minutes you haul in your line. You
may have on several, and again you
may have none. You never know
until your line is drawn in, but you
will always find some of your bait
gone. In either case you set out
and try your luck again. So you
see by the above thst you pay your
money and take your choice of'fish
and plenty of them.
I have taken in aeveral points of
interest—Seal Rocks, Peoble Beach
Moonstone Beach, The Narrows
and also a stage ride to the top
the mountains. It takes you two
hours to go up with four good
horses, and about fort^ minutes to
come down, as the driver coming
down bat httle to do but keep his
foot on the brake. It is rather ex-
citing, especially if you have eight
or ten ladies with you as I had.
F. Uttger, Thomas Lewis and I
put in several days fishing in a small
steam launch.
I lett Avalon yesterday afternoon
for this plsce snd met Mrs. I. M.
Standifer and children. On my
arrival at this place I was taken in
charge by Thomas Lewis, John
Crager and their families, and was
royally treated. Mrs. Standiter and
children and I will leave here to-
morrow evening tor Denison, if I
can steal away from Crager and
Lewis.
I can truly wish you and all
my sportiog friends could take a
trip to this place and Catalina. I
have not told you half, but will tell
you more sa my return. Prepare
our friends for some big ones.
Yours truly,
Levi Lingo.

The Origin of Species.
Prof. Hugo de Vries, the wel
known botanist and biologist, is
credited with a “momentous dis-
covery” concerning the origin of
species among plants. Briefly
stated, his obseivations indicate that
new species appear suddenly by
mutation, never as tba outcome ot a
a progressive variation. He avers
that he has been able, for the first
time, to watch the formation and
development of new species. A
reviewer of his work in the English
scientific journal, Nature* says:
“The facts are so striking and con-
vincing that an outsider, like the re-
viewer, cannot but feel that a new
period in the theories of the origin
ot species and ot evolution has been
inaugurated.”

A Kansas exchange tells of a ro-
bust liar who is growing stouter
every day in that direction. “He
let loose a story of a man who tried
to kill a chinch bug. He ted him
on poison, cracked him in the doors
and froze him in tbe ice. The bug
always came up smiling and looked
at them with a sardonic eye. Finally
be carried tbe bug to a foundry and
dropped it into a ladle of melted
iron. Fifteen years afterward his
wife broke a skillet she had been
using tor some yejirs and that chinch
bug hopped out and asked the near-
