Tn the removal of United States Marshal Schmidt, at Indianapolis, the Democratic Senators have broken down the civil service barriers of the President and have ousted a worthy, faithful and efficient officer before the expiration of his term, to place a political partisan, and thereby repair the party machine.
Is Having a -Good Time Not a Bit Homesick. Kathleen, little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Ogg, who is visiting the family of Mr. and Mrs. Alfonso Lloyd, formerly of this city, but now of Washington, Pennsylvania, /writes her parents a very interesting letter that will be read with pleasure by her many friends here:
Washington, Pa., East Bean st., July 11, 1914.
"My Dear Mother and Father: I have not been the least bit homesick yet. Sunday evening, just after I wrote to you, we all went over to see two new houses. They are just two houses from here. I forgot to tell you that on the Fourth of July we took a street car ride from one end of the line to the other. At the end we waited six minutes and we girls got out and picked daises. Monday afternoon Emma and I went up to Alexander's barn and rode on the hay wagons. Mr. Burgan wasn't there, so Malcolm Burgan and I pitched four shocks. After a while, Mr. Burgan came and he and I pitched. Tuesday morning, right after breakfast, Elizabeth and I went to town to take my sandals. Wednesday, Eunice, Elizabeth and I went to the factory. It is very large. Mr. Lloyd showed me all around. They were making all dif— ferent kinds of bottles. They make
olive, pickle and vinegar bottles, bottles for medicine or shoe polish. The next morning I rode down town
Set my sandals. That evening, McColmens1 invited Eunice and I down to supper. They are very nice
people. There are three girls, 13, 45 and 17. After supper we took a car ride. I sat up with the motorman and had lots of fun. To-night, Mr. Lloyd is going to take us down town and give us a treat. We are 4L going to the park some day next ii^week. "With love to all. "Kathleen Ogg."
Inclosed in the above letter was "one to her little sister and brother, Vv Josephine and George, in which she tells them of good times she is having, making canoes and paper boats, which are set on fire as they sail, and of gathering cat-tails at the factory and eating cherries from the trees.

The Removal of Schmidt. Washington, D. C., July 15.—Realizing full well that the summary dismissal from office of Ed Schmidt, United States Marshal for the district of Indiana would arouse a storrri of protest from responsible men of all parties from one end of Indiana to the other, the Democratic machine in the United States Senate, led on by Senators Shively and Kern, late yesterday afternoon forced the confirmation of .Mark Storen, of Scottsville, Indiana, the choice of Crawford-Fairbanks-Tom Taggart political machine of Indiana as Schmidt's successor. The dismissal of Schmidt, who was recognized as one of the most efficient men who ever occupied the position of United States Marshal of Indiana, is a return to the old discredited spoils system, to which it had been supposed that President Wilson was unalterably opposed. Democrats of standing throughout[ Indiana protested to President Wilson against the removal of Marshal Schmidt, but without avail. The machine politicians had their way, but- they moved hurriedly, realizing that unless they acted promptly, the confirmation of Storen's would be delayed, and the investigation of the removal of Schmidt might cause a situation that would prove highly embarrassing to them.
Hugh Th. Miller, of Columbus. Indiana, Republican nominee for United States Senator of Indiana, was one of the first to voice the protest of Indiana citizens of all political faiths against the dismissal of Schmidt. Mr. Miller wired his protest to United States Senators Borah and Cummins, members of the Senate judiciary committee, and Senators Jones, Bristow, Townsend and Smith, of Michigan. The text of Mr. Miller's telegram follows: "Word has just reached us here that the President has removed from office Edward H. Schmidt, our United States Marshal, who has ten

what is possible for the colored man. Of late years, some of the wealthiest philanthropists in the country have been so satisfied that he was doing more to solve the negro problem than any other man, that they have largely endowed him and his school. He, therefore, does not "need the money" quite so much as he used to and it is diffcult to secure him for lectures. Our superintendents by strenuous and continuous solicitation finally secured four engagements for their Chautauqua in this part of Indiana and we are favored with one of them. It- certainly will be a mistake for wise minded people to miss hearing this great speaker, not for curiosity's sake, but to hear a wonderfully attractive and great lecture. 15d-lw-l (Advertisement.)

Institution is built on the idea of teaching the colored man to work at useful trades and occupations, accumulate some money and be ready to loan it to needy white men. No man has arisen who has come so far in adjusting the negro problem as Mr. Washington, because of his very clear conception of the difficulty. He also urges them to have pride in their own race, start their own soda fountains and restaurants, trade with each other, and in that way build each other up. Mr. Washington is not a beauty when it comes to personal appearance, but when it comes to delivering a lecture, there are few men that can equal him and practically none that can excel him in this country.

ETERNAL PUNISHMENT AND FUTURE REWARDS
Discussed By Evangelist Kelley at Tent Meeting Tuesday Night. "Satan Must Die" Subject
To-Night.
"Men and women do not go immediately to hell or heaven after death." This was an expression made by Evangelist Kelley at the Evangelical and Medical Gospel tent Tuesday night. He also said: "God will not consign- His creatures to the flames of an eternally burning hell. Satan is the autor of this God-dishonoring doctrine. The wicked will be utterly destroyed in the lake of fire when this earth is consumed.

HYMN. tS/T7tttiF?
"How often have we attended funeral services and heard the minister say that the deceased was not dead, but more alive than ever! I do not want to cast any reflection on such ministers, for many of them are sincere when they make such statements, but nevertheless their theory is wrong. Such statements are repetitions of the doctrine taught first by the serpent in the Garden of Eden.- Notice what it said when it was urging Eve to disobey God: 'The serpent said upto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. Gen. 3: 4, 5.' "Men everywhere are telling us the same to-day. They would have us believe the argument of the serpent, used to deceive our first parents in the beginning. The doctrine of the natural immortality of the soul is' not taught in the Bible, for the Apostle Paul said that 'the wages of sin is death.' This does not mean that sinners will continue to live perpetually. 'But,' he contiues, 'the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.' The gift of immortality is brought to light through the gospel and will be given to those who believe. It is not an inherent principle, inseparable from men, but it is a conditional reality that will be experienced by those only who have given themselves to the Lord on the terms of the gospel. "We do not believe in the conscious state of'the dead. Speaking ofiithose who have gone down to the

honor, and he knoweth it not they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.' Again we read: 'The living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward: for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished.' Jesus speaking on this subject said: 'The hour is coming, in the which all that are in the grave shall hear his voice, and shall come forth.' "Not until after the resurrection will the saints receive their reward. Not until after the resurrection will punishment be meted out to the wicked. Else what need would there be of a resurrection?" "Satan Must Die" will be the subject for to-night.

Kansas City Cattle Market. Kansas City Stock Yards, July i3, 1914.—A small supply of cattle last week injected considerable strength into prices, and as the proportion! of stockers and feeders was below normal, those classes took on the maximum gain, 50 to 75 cents above the low spot of the previous- week, Receipts to-day are 11,000 head,. *s which is of seasonable proportions,, but the market has been, held ..dovm to small rations, and was able td" digest the supply at steady to strong price?. Prime fat cattle sold at $9.75 to-day, highest price this year, and equal to the record July/ price here, paid in 1912. Mediums and lower grades of. killing cattle' show even greater strength, and' salesmen say top cattle ought.-to be selling a dollar per hundred higher than they are, compared with the way cheaper cattle are selling. The' recent bulge in fat steer prices has .boomed feeder values somewhat!having dislodged Illinois and Ioivd feeders, who were holding back ior a more favorable outlooki Some 1,300 pound fat sieeris went to Illinois last week for a few days in feed lots, whence they will appear at Chicago as corn fed cattle. They cost around $8.00. A Central Missouri man secured a load of 1,10QV•• pound feeders to-day, for a 60-day feeding course at. $8.35, having bought them away from an Illinois 1 buyer who made the same bid, but for three head less. Iowa is buying feeding cattle, as well as stockers A Muscatine, Iowa, buyer states that if corn prospects are lived up to* balance of the season, 40 cents will be the ruling price for the new crop in his neighborhood. Stock cattle may be gecured at a rather- ,1 wide range now, from $6.00 to $8.00, some fairly good stockers selling- $ around $7.25. Calves contracted on 3 the range early this spring at $25 for December delivery have been resold in some cases at $27.50 and $30.
