KNIGHTS OF MALTA.
They Attended Service at the First
Baptist Church

Special services We're held in the First
Baptist church yesterday afternoon by
the pastor. Rev. Fl. F. StilwelI, and Rev.
w. w. Newall for the Twin CITY com
mander1es of the Knights of Malta. Eight
communicates were present, and they
filled the body of the church. marching
In with military precision
The banners of the Communicates ware
placed In the front of the church. and
with the handsome flowers on the altar
MADE pretty sight. The choir, con-
sisttng Of Miss Eva H. Alcott. Miss Nellie
"A. Hope. Paul Floyd and Edward
hueritz, assisted by A. c. Koerner. the
Grganist, sang several selections with
good effect.
On the banner of the Knights was en-
blazoned cross and this, perhaps. led
Mr.. Stilwell to the subject of his SER
mon, 'The Sign of the Cross" He took
MS text from the twenty-third verse of
the twelfth chapter of John: eff I be
lifted up from earth I shall draw All
men unto me-"
Mr.. StilweN spoke Of Napoleon in
Egypt and his soldiers gazing at the
pyramids and realizing that twenty CEN
turtles of soldiers were looking down upon
them. He thought that instilled a mill
tary spirit into their minds and made
them better warriors. 1t was the same
with the knights.
cause you represent an order so ancient
congratulate you that you bear on your
escutcheon an unsullied emblem honor
you for the ensign on your banner"
Then Mr.. Stilwell spoke of the power
OF the cross and It's history and repeat
ed the story of Christ and the two
thieves at Calvary. 1t showed that the
sign Of the cross was suffering-the suf
fer1ng of the innocent. Of the repentant
and OF the guilty. The cross was also
a sign Of sacrifice and sign Of victory
But, he continued. 1.-The cross must
be worn In the heart. The battle flag
IN war, the glorious Stars and Stripes, is
an inspiration, but amid the din and
carnage OF battle the flag must be worn
In the heart. The American flag is
spread In our church today and I want
to say that there is no place too holy
for It, Under the cross great things will
be accomplished by the Stars and Stripes.

FIGHT ON THE SALOON.
National Lecturer jackson Tells oil
Its Progress and Prospects.

It's PROGRESS and Prospects.
Dr.gJ. c. Jackson: of Ohio, national lee
turer of the American Anti-Saloon league.
lectured yesterday afternoon at Centrai
PRESBYTERIAN church to large audience
on the work of the league. incidentally
he pointed out the work that has Deen
accomplished by the organization, ana
told of It's methods The lecturer was IN
troduced by Rev. Richard II. Battey, OF
MINNEAPOLIS, state superintendent OF the
league.
THE saloon is a moral monster, said
Dr. Jackson. cit lives, moves and has
its being out of a satanic impulse for
making money. No argument ls needed
for you to be aware of the truth of this
assertion. Instead, l am going to try ana
explain how the open saloons can De ell
fectually antagonized.
''n order to DO effective work we must
work together. The Anti-Saloon fedora
ton is a combination of churches and
temperance organizations working out a
single purpose and accomplishing results.
1t is not a total abstinence society In the
strict sense of the word, and 1t is not de-
nominational. Protestants and Catholics
are working together on the common
ground of opposition to the open saloon.
DIR. jackson outlined in general way
the principles and methods of the organi-
zation and declared that results had been
attained that present decided encourage
ment to the temperance workers. The
leagues methods of reaching the end de-
sired. he said. are by agitation, legislation
and law enforcement. -.---

Der of the firm, and reported. An officer

The theory has been advanced that the
men might have escaped upstairs into
the stock room on the third floor which
is rarely occupied, and from there down
the fire escape In the rear. An examine
ton of the building was made yesterday
with the result that there was no EVIL
dence of such an occurrences. There was
no other way Of escape through the build
ing. as all the rooms upstairs. with the
exception of the stock room. were filed
with employees waiting for their pay.
Chief Schweitzer said yesterday regard
ing the robbery: ut was bold attempt :,
and well carried out, either through luck
o. design. I am confident that the work
was done by local talent. since outside
parties would not have known SO well
the customs Of the members of the firm
and the interior arrangement of the
building. 1t may have been the work
of some local thief, aided by an accom-
plice in the employ Of the company.
There has been dearth of clues far.
but l am by no means assured that we
will not locate the responsibility for the
work. 1t rarely happens that such
job 1s done without something leaking
out. and though Justice may not follow
at once 1t will not be long delayed
The money in the bag which Mr..
Treacy carried was enclosed in heavy en-
velopes for the individual employees. with

that ordinary people do not possess su-
perfuity OF gold 1t is more than possible
that this fact may lead to further clues.

city's protective service agree that no
blame attaches to the officers on the

absence of the ordinary features of such
crime would have made 1t impossible to

is recovering from the shock of the blow
which he received. though he stated that
his wound was more painful than it was

The letting OF contracts to American
lish railroads. and especially the contract
for steel bridge at Atbara, ia the Sou.
dan. has caused much comment in Eng
land and put English manufacturers on
the defensive. As a desperate expedient
to justify their failure to compete success
fully for these contracts the British loco
motive and bridge builders are to lay
before parliament a charge that Lord
Kitchener altered the specifications for the
Atbara bridge 10 suit the requirements OF
American contractors without notifying
the British firms OF the alterations Lord
Cromer. the British agent In Egypt, has
furnished the following report 10 Lord
Salisbury: THE time of the delivery was
an even more important consideration
than the price. An English firm offered to
deliver the work in six and a half months
for So 40, The price rendered by the
American firm was So, 500 for delivery in
forty-two days. The American Offer
therefore, was accepted" 1t appears from
this official report that the American man
ufacturers not only underbid the British
manufacturers BY nearly 10 per cent, but
made delivery in less than ne-fourth OF
the time required by the English builders.
The manager OF the locomotive depart
ment of the Great Northern railway, which
has placed large orders for locomotives
with American manufacturers, hluntiy
told the English locomotive builders that
not only did the Americans make much
more speedy delivery than the English.
but they furnished n better locomotive.
British manufacturers admit the outlook
for them is not bright, and charge much
OF the blame to the trade unions. The
manager OF the Pennsylvania firm that
furnished the bridge says: when an Eng
iishmau gets "A contract he sits down to
think about it: an American goes to work
at once and completes it as soon as posi-
Bile" There may DO something In this

Boys and Girls OF whitman Earn

woman who attends Whitman that con-
tributes $lo; this IS all the pin money al
