Holcomb --^ Boonville Boy Saved At Point Of Death St. Louis Mo., July 29.— Although he realized that his own body would receive the full voltage from a high ten sion wire carrying 650 volts of electricity, Charles Bizart yesterday climbed to the lop of a tali ladder and rescued Thomas C. Angell, of 1941 Wright street, St. Louis, (for* merly of Boonville, N, C.) who had come in contact with the wire and received the full vol tage.

We are requested to insist that every Sunday School send delegates, etc. This is an annual occasion of much more importance than is gen erally imagined. -—--. Taft In November Many a Democrat has been elected in July, only to be bur ed under an avalanche of votes of votes in November. Mr, Taft’s prospects are now at their lowest ebb. First driven by treachery and shameful abuse to the extreme of un dignified personal defenses, then fought with unexampled bitterness in his contest for a .deserved renomination, and now confronting not only an open detachment from his own ranks, but also a most resource ful and daring Democratic op ponent, his record of accom plishments s upon which he must ultimately rely is for the moment eclipsed. But the fact that few presidents have rendered more valuable service under trying conditions re mains. Mr. Taft’s fidelity, conscientious endeavors, his singleness of unselfish purpose his purity of intent, his noble achievements, are forgotten only for the time. They will be recalled with gratitude and emphasized with effect.— [From Harper’s Weekty, which is supporting Wilson.] The Hi kin Times has been turned into a Roosevelt Pro gressive oregan.
