E. CHURCH. LAST LECTURE TO-NIGHT There was a good sized audience Friday night at Trnity Church to hear the Hon. E. W.

Chafin, a weir known' lawyer of Chicago, who the fifth lecture of the Temple Leo-. ture course. Through the kindness of Dr. a. Downing the 19th Sep.

Drum Corps escorted, the speakers, singers and a few of the prominent temperance workers of the city to the church. The Kings Daughters Quartette of Illinois opened the meeting by singing a selection after which Rev. J. H. Michell of the Hedding Church led in prayer, The quartette then entertained by several fine selections wHich 'drew much applause from the audience.

Mr. Michell then introduced Mr. Chain who first spoke of the Lincoln pledge work. He said last Tuesday there were about 12,000 speeches made on this great, man in this state and he doubted if any of them said. Lincoln was a total obstalner and had been all his life.

He then told of the Chatauqua work in Illinois Inst summer when with five tents placed in five different towns each week and different speakers each night they had covered 95 of the 103 counties of Hilinois. The prohibition votes showed they had carried 12 counties. No reform in history is making the progress that the temperance reform is making. In 1870 the supreme court held that the saloon was constitutional. In may states they claim that the prohibition laws are not constitutional and that the breweries and saloonkeepers can make the state pay them damages for ciosing their places, but the supreme court has held that the state need not pay these damages as.

the prohlbition laws were constitutional. 'You say the reform is not growing but you judge from your own town and from your own judgment, 1 cannot go to any night without taking two or three temperance papers with me thinking the morement will be ahead of me before morning. The trouble is you take the papers that keep you posted. Out in Indiana taxpayer has commenced suit against a saloonkeeper, claiming that the saloon is his property, morals, and we expect a decision soon from the United States Supreme Court that the licensed saloons in all the United States are unconstitutional. majority of the voters in both the Republican party and the Democratic party in every county in all the United States say the saloon ought to die.

No evil can run in any com: munity without having two political parties behind It. It is possible the liquor question will be settled within 24 months. Were slave holders ever in majority? No; only one-third of the population were slave holders In 1818 the stave holders demanded of Congress that she buy Florida of. Spain for them, and Congress did for $5.000.000 and for 23 years they hunted all over this country for all the colored and half colored people they could find for the slave block of Florida and the annexing of that state was the darkest page in the history of the United States, In 1860 those who were opposed to siavery met in convention in Chreago and nominated Abraham Lincoln for president which divided the people so that those who were in favor of slavery stood on one side and those opposed on the other. and Lincoln was elected.

We should abolish the electoral ballot system. When a man gets better than his party he must then get out of it. The liquor traffic walks around on two legs; one is a Republican and the 'other is a Democrat. In Illinois the Prohibition vote was raised last year over that of 1904 from 30,000 for Swallow to 90,000 for state treasurer, the head of the ticket. Had New York State gained in that.

proportion you woul have had 180.000 votes for Randall, and we would have been in sight of the White House, There are 250.000 Christian voters in New York State to pray for the destroying of the liquor traffic and then go and vote for rum. We need a new political party for all lines, Even Roosevelt, whom. 1 admire as being the best president we have had since Lincoln, cannot stop tonal sale of girls, In New York City at the murder trial the whole civilized world has been horrifled at the revelation where a girl has been sold for wine and there are 180 girls being sold this way every day. At the close of the meeting a large number went do the platform to sign the Lincoln pledge, To-night the series of meetings close with an address by Hon. A.

G. Wolfenbarger, of Lincoln, and Prof. F. Mezick and his sister, of Maryland, will sing, The admission is free and the lecture commences at o'clock. the corner Washington Street and Parker Avenue has caused the restdents of that vicinity to make a.complaint to the police, LOCAL NOTES.

The teachers of the Schoolinaster's Association are claiming that 'there has been an increase in the cost of! living in Poughkeepsie, Newburgh and Kingston of 46 per cent.

since 1898. This Is a pretty large exaggeration so far as Poughkeepsie concerned. Possibly the increase has amounted to 18 or 20 per cent. due largely to advanced wages in all lines of trade and business. Perhaps teachers wages have not advanced as others, but niether are they likely to fall so rapidly or 80' far in hard times, MORE DAMAGING EVE INCE.

Daughter and Son-In-Law of Mrs. Seaman Make vies Before Coroner, Knapp Whose Verdict Expected To-Day.

Her husband, Frank Pendleton. makes an affidavit in.

which he says: "Mr. Seaman told me that Mrs. Seaman was out walking night with Ralph Nolan. He followed the couple and when near the mill bridge Mrs. Seaman turned and hit him on the head with a stone.

I have heard her say that she wished Seaman was dead so she could get the insurance. She' told me two or three times that she had offered to divide the Insurance with Nolan it he would assist her to get her husband out of the way. or five months ago she asked me to get him work in the ber factory at Matteawan and try to get him caught in the grinder and then offer him no assistance." It is expected that the coroner w11! render his verdict to-day.
