Odor of Liquor Reminded Lone Wid
ow of Her Recently Depart
ed Helpmate.
E. J. Berwind, the great coal op
erator of Philadelphia, was asked
bj a reporter, at his beautiful New
port villa, a rather stupid question
in finance.
Mr. Berwind laughed.
“That question,” he said, “is
about as absurd and as ludicrous as
a tableau I once saw in a little
French theater in New Orleans.
“The curtain rose in the thea
ter, revealing a large bed draped
with crape, and occupied by an el
derly woman who held a black edged
handkerchief to her eyes. A widow
plainly, of but a few days’ standing.
She wept. Her wound was still raw.
“On the other pillow beside the
widow lay a large bottle of gin. She
turned toward the bottle, and, sob
bing as if her heart would break,
she said tenderly:
“ ‘Ah, when I see and smell the
gin there I think it’s poor Thomas
back at my side again.”’

feet long, with accommodation for

chased Glastonbury Abbey.
To signalize the opening Mr. Jar

starting it with a shilling.—London

The course of lectures at the
Methodist church Suuday and
Monday nights, given by E. L.
Salyers. Field Agent of the Anti
Saloon League, of Arkansas, were
instructive and entertaining and
a large crowd was present each
night. The camera displayed well
the volcanoes of vice and immor
ality over which society is uncon
sciously sleeping. The gambling
dens and wine rooms were expos
ed as only the camera or a visit
among them could do. Mr. Sal
yers has worked as detective and
also been on the police force in St.
Louis and other cities and knows
whereof he speaks. Many of the
views shown were taken by him
self while thus engaged and the
lessons learned from these sorrow
ful pictures on t he great questiou
of temperance were given nd receiv
ed in such a manner asto make us
more determined than ever that
THE SALOON MUST GO. A
collection of $40.00 was taken in
to assist the League in its work
for a better home, a better town, a
better state and last of all a better
nation. In his lecture of Monday
night he made the following state
ment: “As you all know, there
are 75 counties in this state, 17 of
which are “wet” or in other words
allow whiskey to be sold within
i their borders. Fifty live per cent
: (more than half) of the convicts
in the state prison today were sent
there from these 17 wet counties,
while 45 per cent (less than half)
were sent from the 58 “dry” couu
! ties.” He also gave figures show
ing the number of arrests made in
McCrorv the year 1906 when we
had saloons aud the year 1907
when we did not have saloons, and
the numbers showed 199 arrests
j in 1906, and 37 arrests in 1907.
This is proof brought right home
at our door of what the saloon will
do. The Auti-Saloon League in
tends making the whole slate dry
by Jan.,1, 1910, which we pre
dict will be done.
