these young people care. If this were not
true, why did they spend these weeks in
preparation for a series of meetings? If it
be true that God cares. and you believe it
the most natural question for you to ask is:
What must do to be saved" Must I love
God? God does not say, Love Me and
will save YOU He says, Trust Me, be-
lieve on Me, ard you shall be saved If
you will just trust in Him and put yourself
In His care. believing that He loves you
and wants to save you, you will find Him
ready and waiting for you to come into His

DR.. CHAPMAN'S MEETING
His First Service Last Night in Calvar
Baptist Church.
An Immense Audience Present te
Listen to the Eloquent
Evangelical.

Rev. ]. Wilbur Chapman, the evangelist,
held the first of his meetings in this city
last night at the Calvary Baptist Church,
and he spoke to an audience that complete
ly filled the large auditorium and which
listened to him with the greatest attention.
A song service preceded Mr.. Chapman s
sermon, participated in by a choir of 200
voices, which have been trained by Mr.. p.
L. Zimmerman of this city. Miss May
Smith acted as pianist and Miss Alice KIM
bah as organst. DIR. A. w. Pitzer gave an
invoca ton and DR.. Chapman was intro
duced by Rev. DR.. Greene, the pastor of
Calvary Church. Mr.. Chapman took his
text from Psalms 142:iv-"No man cares
for my SOUL
Mr.. Chapman's Sermon.
II suppose said DR.. Chapman, that
many people have found that more true
in Washington than in any other city in
love for position and power, and become
so infatuated with the possession of these
that they lose all sight of the things
which make for their eternal welfare. 1
found the truth of the fact that the world
does not care for their souls. They have
found that when Satan gets them, and
gets ali he wants out of them for the up
building of his kingdom, he is done with
them, and casts them aside as of no use.
Then they find the helplessness and use
1essness of the worlds vain pleasures.
They find that power, influence, position
are inanimate things which are of no bene-
fit in the making of their character and
the preparation Of their souls for eternal
life"
After expounding more fully upon this
IDEA Dr. Chapman concluded his remarks
as follows.
The world does not care for your soul,
but God cares, the Son of God cares, the
church cares. these ministers care, and

Ameniment to the Naval Bill Adopted
by the HOuse.


The amendment to the naval bill to build
a great armor plant was ruled out upon a
point of order in the House yesterday, and
the price to be paid for armor was cut
down from $545 to s445. A proviso was also
added precluding the government from pay
ing more than was paid by any other for
eign government for similar armor.
Mr. Moody (Mass) created a fnrore by
offering at the end of the bill a copy of
the Senate bill to create the rank of ad-
nliral of the navy. UproariouS applause
greeted the reading of the amendment The
naval committee had amended this bill SO
as TO create the rank of vice admiral as
well as admiral, the purpose being to allow
Dewey to be appointed admiral and Sanlp-
son vice admiral. This move euchered the
naval committee.
Mr., Boutele at first reserved q point of
order against the amendment but Turning
suddenly upon Mr.. Moody declared he
would withdraw the point in Difference to
what appeared to be the general demand
of the House if the amendment could be
voted upon without debate.
I'VE will vote without a word said Mr..
Moody. "Vote!" Voter went up in chorus
from all sides of the House.
The question on the amendment was put,
and II was carried with a rousing cheer.
When the nays We're called for there was
the silence of the grave.

Dewey is 10 he promoted to the position Of

The bill was then reported to the House.
Separate votes We're demanded by Mr..
Boutelle upon the Naval Academy and
armor plate amendments. both of which
were carried the former 80 TO TO- the latter
40 to 5S. Mr. Boutelle then moved to re-
commit the bill with instructions to re-
store the price of armor plate to s5l5 per
ton, as originally recommended by the COM
mittee The motion was voted down. 10 to

INToxICATION INCREASING.
Suggestion for the Imposition of PEN
atty In Certain Cases.

A suggestion recently made by Lieut..
ADiss of the police force that the District
Commissioners amend the police regulations
by imposing fine upon such persons as
might be found on the streets helplessIy
drunk. has been referred by the Commits
sioners to their attorney for an opinion as
TO tAir authority to make the proposed
amendment.
In making the suggestion Lieut. .Amiss
stated that intoAication is becoming SO fire.
quent here that nine-tenths of the calls for
the patrol wagons are for the purpose of
hauling helpless drunken persons to the
station houses. The amendment proposed
by him. he thinks. would have a deterrent
effect on those inclined to indulge in such
habits. In referring the suggestion to the
Commissioners, Chief Sylvester called at
against drunkenness in the District unless
the individual is an habitual offender.
Those other than such are taken to the
station houses as a precaution against in
jury to themselves or others, and when
they are sober are discharged by the Off
GERS in charge. Years ago, the chief recalls
police magistrates imposed fine where
parties intoxicated became an obstruction
upon the thoroughfares. If any action were
taken, he states looking to the imposition
OF a penalty, II would have TO be consid-
cred from that standpoint.
There being grave doubts in the minds
OF the Commissioners as to their authority
to meet the question by police regulation
they referred the matter to their attorney
for his opinion.

saw Mrs. Holderman lying on the street.
He then had her cared for.
E: w. Mendenhall, motorman. said he first
noticed Mrs. Holderman at the corner of
9th and East Capitol streets. She rode
alongside of the track and a little in ad.
vance of the train for about a square and
a half. He threw off the current and
sounded the gong. Near the alley between
9th and 9TH streets Mrs. Holderman turned
TO the right, but struck piece of ice about
eight inches high. This threw her back
ward against the step of the car which
crushed her head. The fender and front
dash had passed her. The train was going
at slow rate-so slow that a child could
have jumped on or off with safety. Mrs.
Holderman had her right hand on her BIZ
cycle handle and held a package in her
left hand. the bundle resting on the ham
die bars.
The Verdict.
This closed the testimony, and after a
brief elaboration the jury rendered a ven
dict that Jessie 3. Hoiderman died at $50
East Capitol street on the evening of Feb
ruary .. 1899. from fracture of the skull
and cerebral hemorrhage, resulting from an
accidental collision with an electric car,
which accident occurred on East Capitol
street between 9th and 7th streets. We
find that the accident was one for which
no one can be held responsible

request to get some better made The girl told me
that they served mostly Postum Food Coffee, SO
when got that properly made, it proved to be a

more believe, serve Postum in snchs way that
it is tasteless and unpalatable. Every one who
has at any time had genuine cup Of well-made
Postum Likes it. and you may depend upon It that
any one who says they do not like Postum has
never really had good cup Of 1t. The whole Sc

enough to bring out the favor.

the last two weeks the railroad COM
mittees have been pushing subscrip-

they have met is a surety that the rail-
road scheme will be a success. The
people were required by the Short Line

ment with the trustees of this fund to
contract for the putting of the main
line into Boise as soon as the money
should be secured. The committees
went at the matter with a will, and
now 100000 of the required amount has
been subscribed, and the committee
says it has $4,000 additional insight

Collins of Beatrice. Neb., to construcs
the grade for line of railroad from
to Cody City in the Big Horn basin,
work upon which will be commenced
as soon as a force of laborers and teams
are gotten together.
1T is also announced that the North
ern Pacific is about to let the contract
for line of road through the basin
and is making every effort to reach tha>

both roads would open to development
one of the richest agricultural mining
