am working out such plan, and l am
confident it will be successful AT any
rate, once introduce the element Of per-
sonal love into business like this, take
out the selfish principle Of doing it for
the sake of personal profits to man or
company, and do not see any way ex-
cept the most loving personal interest
between editor, reporters, pressmen and
all who contributed anything to the
life Of the paper, and that interest
would be expressed not only n the per-
sonal love and sympathy, but in shar-
ing with the profits of the business.
"6. AS editor Of daily paper today
Jesus would give large space to the
work of the Christian world. He would
devote a page possibly to the facts of
reform, of sociological problems, Of in
stitutional church work and similar
movements
~. He would do all in his power in
his paper to fight the saloon as an enemy
of the human race and an unnecessary
part of our present civilization. He
would do this regardless Of public SEN
timent in the matter and, of course, al
ways regardless of its effect ON his sub
scription list
Again Edward Norman looked up
IT state my honest conviction on this
point OF course do not pass Judgment
on the Christian men who are editing
other kinds of papers today, but as |
interpret Jesus l believe he would use
the influence of his paper to remove the
saloon entirely from the political and
social life of the nation.
"S. Jesus would not issue a Sunday
edition
80. He would print the news Of the
world that people ought to know
Among the things that they do not need
to know and which would not be pub
lished would be brutal prizefghts. long
accounts of crimes, scandals in private
families or any other human events
which in any way would conflict with
the first point mentioned in this out
line
40 If Jesus had the amount of
money to use on a paper which we have,
he would probably secure the best and
strongest Christian men and women
to cooperate with him in the matter of
contributors That will be my pur.
pose, as shall be able to show you in
few days
"11 Whatever the details of the pa
per might demand as the paper de-
veloped along its definite plan, the main
principle that guided it would always
be the establishment of the kingdom Of
God in the world This large general
principle would necessarily shape all
the details. "

Fortunes in Hard Woods.

The hardwood business has increased
to such mammoth proportions in the
last decade that Chicago is unquestion-
ably the largest consuming market in
the world.
The receipts so far this year indicate
that by January there will have been
placed in forty different yards fully 1, 2O0,-
100000 feet, valued at upwards of $780,
100000.
The largest consumers of this vast
amount OF hard wood are $40 furniture
factories, the many piano and organ
makers, the agricultural machine manu.
facturers, the palace car works, and the
building interests. An inventory COM
pleted a week ago showed 10000 900
feet in stock at the Pullman yards.
European demand for black walnut
takes nearly all of the limited supply of
that wood, leaving only enough to meet
the piano and organ requirements. In
diana and Ohio, the best forest states in
the country, wasted more OF this valua-
BILE wood in rail fences and in fires than
the value OF the remainder of their trees,
and those states are now being secured
for the rails, which can be made into
table,legs and similar pieces.
One tree near Goshen, Ind, recently
sold for SIS .O00 and eighty trees brought
$40, 900. Four trees shipped to Europe
sold for $4,000.
The Indiana sycamore is valuab BILE, fin.

Judge Holt inclined to doubt the explana-
ton offered by the young woman of hav-
ing been in such company.
From the rapid accumulation Of aGdi-
tional evidence today, however, 1t ap-
pears that,,the story told by Miss Knott
Is true in every essential particular. Mr..
Iollenbeck. we'll known operate sing
er. who has lately opened q studio In Min
neapolts, says that he has known Miss
Knott for years, and that she is pre-
cisely as She. represents herself to be.
Mr. Ravenscroft, who has sung with her
for years. both inesthe company of Ca
mile D'Arville and with the Duff Opera
company, asserts that Miss Knott was the
most determined student and conscien-
tious artistic he ever knew.
I'm ali my acquaintance with her" he
said 81 never knew Miss Knott to drink
even a glass of7beets,r though that in itself
would constitute no crime. Unlike many
of her professional sisters, she never
smoked cigarettesSor drank. She had no
bad habits at all that l was ever able to
discover. and aonqt1es road she was re-
garded by the companies as a sort Of
blue stocking. Morally, the young wom-
an was above reproach, In my humble
opinion, and it Is strange, indeed, if, after
so determined a,struggle against adversely
until illness, which drove her to the hos
pital, she has become in the few weeks
that have since elapsed, so vile and de-
PRAYED a character as the police depict
her, The theoEyzis untenable, and, more
than that. It is untrue"
TT is past be4fef' said a well-known
and charitable woman Who has interested
herself in the case. Sthat This young girl
could have become So utterly deprayed as
they say she is in the brief time since her
friends lost sight of he~s@It must be re-
membered that she has only been out of
a typhoid fever bed for a lew weeks. and
that she is in disordered condition men
tally and physically as the result That

lapse could be the debauchee these peo-
pie picture is impossible. The child ought
to be in a hospital .poW instead Of a work
house. Every physician will testify to
the effect of typhoid fever, the condition
in which It leaves its victim, and the i'm
possibility of some of the charges lodged
| against her by the police. 1t Is fearful
commentary on our police system that
such cases are possible and that greater
discrimination is not exercised in their
disposition" 't-~1s-' -

yesterday, and 1t Is understood heard

The Minneapolis. Elks came to the as
sistance yesterday of Miss Lillian NJ.
Knott, the OperaIsinger sent to the Mime
apolis workhouse by Judge, Holt. AS soon
as they heard of her case, the necessary
amount was raised TO pay her fine and
she was released, Last night friends
cared for her, and today she will start
for her homeSfhT Terre TTaute, Ind.
Her case Interested Mayor Gray and
Chief of Police DOYLE, as well as the
grand jury. Mayor Gray will insist on
Miss KNOTS vindication.
The colored man who figured in Miss
Knott's story as befHending her, has
been found. He has Informed the grand
jury that her statement is true in every
particular. Rarely has case aroused
such widespread and active sympathy as
has this one. AS soon as the young wom-
ans plight was made public a movement
was .ip9ugUrated TO secure her release.
L was deemed best to, have the SEN
tenee> RENTED by Judge Holt, who SEN
fenced her if such a course were pos
sible| ana with this end in view large
number of people called on the judge.
John Ravenscroft, formerly of the Duff
Opera company, who sang with Miss
Knott for two years, and who is now
connected with the firm of Winston, Far
rington & Co., together with Frederick
HollenbecI, late Of the Francis Wilson
company, and several other gentlemen,
saw Judge Holt at noon. The judge point
ed out that Miss Knott, had been con-
VIcted on the evidence of police officers
thar she was bad character, and on ap-
parently corroborative circumstances. He
expressed the opinion that the verdict had
been strictly in accordance with the evil
dence submitted, and added that he saw
no reason for suspension Of the sentence,
unless additional evidence was adduced
tending to show that there had been err
ror, or that any of the witnesses had
testified falsely. The well known ten
dency of police. Officers, and detectives
to support by every possible means the
action of the department in having made
an arrest, was cited as affording a rea-
sonable doubt Of the guilt of Miss Knott,
especially. when the. character of her ac-
Cusers was taken into consideration, but
