Chester dispatch, 9: Dr. Schroyer last Friday morning reported two more cases of diphtheria in the family of Henry Doerr.four miles north of Ches ter. All the patients, Dr.^Schroyer •. i,-: .Sf.: fee.- if s- says, are afflicted with black diph theria. However, they are all getting ilong as well as could be expected, and unless something unforeseen takes place, will recover. Mr. Doen's peo ple are indignant over the reports sent out from Wentworth, that the disease in that locality is not diphtheria, thougn it is the same a? his family is afflicted with in fact, Mr.Doerr's folks 'iiy they were exposed to the disease at V\ entworth. Sioux City Journal: William Con nors, of Madison, S. D., at the police station yesterday morning related the 'letails af an adventure which cost him f-7. Mr. Connors said he lecame ae 'inuinted Monday evening with a fleasant young man and was going tn buy him a drink. Before they ar rived at the thirst parlor the chance urquaititance suddenly hit Connors on the jaw. It was not a heayv blow, hut the walk was slippery and Connois ti ll down in the snow. While he was struggling to regain bis feet his assail ant transferred Connors' pocketbook to his own pocket and disappeared down he street. "Lost. Gasoline stove. Finder please return to Mrs. fi. J. Costello." The business manager of this oFice was somewhat startled when the above ad vertisement was handed in today. He had heard of well authenticated cases of mothers leaving theii babies in de pots. husbands forgetting their wives at the theater, girls losing their hearts, ung meu losing their minds, and on rare occasions—very rare-wives losing their temper. But to lose a gasoline stove was the limit. Investigation re vealed the fact that. Mrs. Costello loaned her gasoline stove for use at the Catho e. ladies' sapper last evening and when he came to claim it this morning the stove was nowhere to be found The stove was a good, faithful cooker and nighly prized by its owner, hence a desire to have it returned to it's family and friends. Later in the"day Mrs. Costello 'phoned, "I have found my stove." The very best evidence in the world that it pays to advertise. A premature young lady was trip ping along Egan avenue today, the world in her eyes appearing a. mere loke, carrying under her arm her first personal possession of a corset, an arti ia openly displayed in the show win dow. bnt which becomes sacred from p'ying eyes when it reaches the lady's boudoir. Humming a two step as she heat a tattoo with her little French le els on the pavement, thinking of the beautiful form divine which would st .on be encased in the corset, ner io mantic reverie was much disturbed when the package became disarranged and the garters escaped from their hid ing and trailed along behind. Upon discovering the garters out for an air ing on the avenue, she made an un graceful grab for them, wiuding them around her bands and her arms and her neck in her confusion, and as the awfulness of the scene took full posses sion of her, she stamped her little foot and cried out in offended modesty, heavens's sake Oh) SOMEWHAT TAME An Apparent Lack of Enthus iasm at the Tabernacle Last Evening There was something of an air of apathy in the meeting at the taberna cle last evening. The attendance had fallen off to a considerable extent compared with the previous evening There were many vacant chairs in the choir, the singing was less spirited, the evangelist was labored in bis speaking, and soruebow there was a lack of push that ordinarily characterizes the meet ings. In making his announcements, Mr. .lohnson complained of the smallness of the audiences at the day meetings. He said the afternoon meetings were for the purpose of praying for "your hoys and girls who are on the road to hell." It is a sad commentary on the parents of Madison that a stranger takes more interest in the welfare of their children than they themselves, else patents would turn out better. The evangelist announced that this evening he will speak on the subject of Popular Amusements, but unless the audience is larger than laet evening the seimon will be abandoned. If the weather is good a town of the size of Madison should pack the tabernacle, but if the weather is bad and the peo ple do not turn out, he will conclude that God does not want him to deliver the sermon. Friday will be a day of fasting and prayer and three services will be held in the tabernacle—morn ing, afternoon and evening. "Now, don't stay away from the Friday meet ings, thinking you have a Pullman ticket for heaven—you may get stopped on the way by a hot box." In announcing the collection, the evangelist said it didn't look as if any body had become bankrupt by giving toward the support of the revivals. "Some people who give a dollar to God stop and sing, 'When shall we three meet again.' Heretofore people who desired spe cial prayers said have manifested it by raisiag their hands at the request of the evangelist, but last evening they were required to rise and make their requests audibly. A number arose from their seats and requested prayers for sons, daughters, sisters, brothers, mothers, fathers, neighborhoods, etc. In prononncing prayer, Mr. Johnson recounted that in other towns than Madison business was generally sus pended for bis meetings—banks closed, saloons, offices and mercantile estab lishments closed and everybody attend ed his afternoon and evening meetings. He asked God's blessing on all classes of aien. Mr. Johnson^ seleoted his tost, «r --VV/ v V 1 1 1 ^•4 1 *&* v v We Have Everything To keep you warm and com fortable this cold weather.

"And ye will not come to me, that ye mignt have life," St. John, 5-40. The discourse was along tbe line of ac cepting salvation which was freely offered if any man or woman leaves the tabernacle without salvation it will be because they do not want life God has done everything for you and now it is up to you to accept that which be offers you freely that you may have life. But some people are so narrow 1 "It might be well for some Madison people to fix up a lunch and go to Sioux Falls and see something it would broaden their minds—go as far as Egan anyway."
