A NOTABLE METHODIST
BISHOP NEWMAN's PROMINENT
CAREER.
An orator and Organizer Far In Ad-
vance of His Fellows-Close Friend
of President Grant.

Bishop Newman whose death took
place fortnight ago has been one Of the
most conspicuous figures in modern
MctnOdism. His abilities as an orator
and organizer first attracted attention
during his stay i'm New Orleans, where
he was sent by the General Conference
at the close of the war From that time
his rise to fame was rapid, and i'm the
early seventies he was called to take
charge of the Metropolitan church at
Washington, d. G. President Grant was
one of his parishioners. Upon the retire
ment of General Grant, DR.. Newman
resigned his pastorate to become the
eX-Presidents chaplain, and in that
capacity made tour of the world with
the general. Upon Grants death he
preached the funeral sermon. Another
life long friend of Bishop Newman was
Senator Stanford. When Leland Stan
ford, Jr. died, DR.. Newman came to this
city to conduct the obsequies.
Three years ago Bishop Newman was
assigned to the Pacific coast, with
residence at San Francisco. From the
hour of his arrival he began a system
attic visitation of the churches which re-
suited in a general material and spirit
ual uplift. His untiring efforts, however,
undermined his strength and a year
later he was obliged TO retire to Europe
for a protracted rest. A few months
ago, having rounded out a ministry OF
fifty years, he asked for and received
| the assignment to the Wyoming Con-
ference, where his ministry began. He
was able to preside but a few hours,
that being his last official service to the
church. He retired to Saratoga, N Y,
where in the quiet of his home he gave
his remaining days to a peaceful con-
temptation of beneficent life.
Bishop Newman was born in New
York City September 1, 1926.

CONTRACT LABOR.
Maui Debating Society Divided Equally
on the Question.

PAIA, Maui, July 15.-The Makawao
Debating Society held its regular July
meeting last night in the Foreign
church parlors, Paia. The attendance
was rather light, many being kept
away by the threatening weather,
amongst them being three of the lead
ers in the debate. Three members
present were selected to take their
places, so the discussion devolved into
an impromptu affair, and was thrown
open to all present. The question was
Resolved, that the further introduce
ton of contract labor would be deterI-
mental to the best interests of the Ha-
waiian Islands," and was led by w. O..
Aiken and w. E. Beckwith on the af-
firmative, and F. A. Alexander and d.
c. Lindsay on the negative.
Following their volunteer remarks
were made by w. S. Nicoll, r. F. Engle
and F. c. Atherton and Mr. Hebron, of
Honolulu. The vote resulted in a tie,
and was allowed to stand so. Withal,
the were but few present, and the ques-
ton not prepared, the discussion was
very interesting and enjoyable.
Question chosen for the next debate
was Resolved, that trusts tend to pro-
mote the greatest good to the greatest
number"
Interest in the society has Jagged of
late, and it is hoped that members and
their friends will stir themselves, and
have a big meeting next time.

HAD TO BE SHOT.
Animal of W. E. Buck Badly Injured in
Runaway.

Animal OF W. {. Buck eadly Injured IN
Runaway.
A valuable horse, the property of
Waldo E. Buck of the Worcester Man
ufacturing Mutual Insurance Co, was
killed yesterday afternoon on Belmont
street by being shot because of a bro
ken leg, the result of the horse running
away. The horse was hitched into a
light gig, and was driven by Mr.. Buck
down Belmont street quite rapidly
when the breeching broke. The driver
realizing his predicament tried ineffec-
tually to turn into Hooker street, but
failed to do so and instead drove the
horse on the sidewalk.
The buggy was overturned and Mr..
Buck thrown out of the team The
shaft of the team and the wheels were
badly demolished by coming in contact
with the curbing. The horse, now tho
roughly frightened, bolted down Bel
mont street. The maddened animal en-
deavOred to turn into the sidewalk but
slipped upon the curbing and fell,
breaking his leg and cutting himself
badly.
DR.. w. L. Thayer was called and en-
deavored to bring the horse to the sta
BILE of Harrington & Brother on Central
street, but the animal was able to
go but a few feet before he fell. The
cut under the horses belly was sewed
upwhich stopped the flow of blood some
what. 1t was at last decided to put
the horse out of his misery and A. A.
Lamarche procured a revolver and shot
the animal twice. The carcass was af-
terward removed from where it fell.

ing the work under the present order
of the city council. 1t is safe to say,
however, that the mayor Will never
sign a contract for the work under
present conditions.
The cycling fraternity have taken W
the matter, and are circulating a Pc
tition which will be sent to the street
committee and through them to the city
council, asking that the smooth paving
be put in as soon as possible. Several
of the leading signers are not in favor
of paving one side Of the street realiz-
ing that wheelmen and drivers Of We
hicles would head for that side of the
street. causing considerable confusion.
Mr.. Prior says that he is approached
every day by men who want to know
why the work is not done, and that he
shall go ahead with the work accord
ing to the order of the city council I'M
til he is stopped. He considers asphalt
ina the best material for smooth paving
from what he has seen Of IT, although
personally he favors none particular
iy. Mr.. Prior expects to hear frona all
those to whom he has addressed com
munications regarding underground
work in the streets within few days.
and will then be prepared to state def
initely just what work Of this sort Is
anticiDated.

TOLD FOR FIRST TIME.
Louis Varney Relates How
He Discovered Lajoie
of the Phillies.

When the Worcesters were trimming
their opponents yesterday they had no
better "rooter" than Louis Varney of
Millbury, who is responsible for Lajoie
of the Philadelphia being in the ma
tional league, and being regarded as
one of the best men in the country.
Lajoie was discovered at the Holy
Cross grounds in 1895, when he played
second base for the Foxes of Fisher
vile against the Lyceums of this city
in a game for a considerable purse.
Varney, who then lived in Saunders
vile, and was manager of the Foxes, sat
next to The Spy man at the game yes
terday. During a conversation on La
joies debut he told the story of his
find" for the first time for
publication. Varney said La
joie was playing with Woonsocket
in 1895, and might be playing there yet,
| think. l heard about him and went
to Woonsocket after him. He was
getting So a game. ! offered him 500 to
play four games with me. He ac-
cepted. The Lyceums' match game
was made during the time that he was
under engagement with me, and l gave
the players double money for that
game. I gave them also portion of
the stake money. / advertised LaJoie
as we'll as l could before the game and
knew that two directors of the Boston
club and one of the Fall River team of
the New England league would be at
the game. 1 told Lajoie about it and
urged him to get after every thing,
whether he made errors or not. He
wanted to catch, thinking he could
make better showing behind the bat
as he had played that position more
than any other | advised him to play
second base. You know how he played
it. After the game the Boston men
wanted him to go to Boston. He re-
ceived an offer from Fall River also.
l thought if he went to Boston he
would be played on the bench, and adj
vised him to accept the Fall River
offer, where I knew he would make his
mark. He decided to do so, That was
all that was necessary. When he got
playing ball where the eyes of the base
ball world were on him, no further eff
forts were needed in his behalf. He is
certainly one of the greatest players
that ever handled a ball"

lam unalterably opposed to the car
wing out of the order for smooth paw
ing in the hands of the street com
missioner at the present time. In the
first place. I consider it a waste OF
money to pave one side Of the street,
necessitating changes in grade ana the
reIaving Of the block paving on the
otber side of the street. When the
work is done. if it ever is, the street
sbould be laid from curb to curb with
the same material
Another thing that I consider wrong
in the order is that it specifies explicit
" that asphaltina shall be the material
nsed I am not convinced that asphal-
tina constitutes the best form of paving.

Gentlemen's Sleeping Wear.

The strip that is laid at the rear of the
city hall does not argue very strongly
for asphaltina. 1t has been said that a
mistake was made on this job, but the
company that has been at work laying
pavement for any length Of time should
understand their system so as not to
have such mistakes occur. Providing
asphaltina is laid in Main street, | can
see no reason why such a mistake is
not liable to occur again and even
though the company guarantees its
work and stands ready to make it right
in case it is not satisfactory, considera-
BILE inconvenience would result from
having to tear up and relay section
of paving in Main street.
Some men claim asphalt is the best
others that asphalt blocks and still
others that block paving laid in con-
crete with cement joints is the best.
Il have not had it demonstrated to
me which Is the best, but l should hes
itate before expressing an opinion"
In reply to a question as to whether
the sum received from the state treas
urer as Worcesters share of the street
railway tax, which is something over
ST. 900, had not furnished the start for
the revival for smooth paving order,
which, according to the figure OF the
Boston Paving company, would amount
10 ABOUT LHdI sum, the IidyOI Sdlus
Il don't know about that l do know,
however, that $4,000 will be needed for
the purchase Of the Mower lot, which
is ordered at the present time to give
the street department additional room.
This expenditure will leave but about
$1,000 of the sum for use in the street
department work.
Last year the net expenditures Of
the street department were something
over $226 900, and don't see how they
will be any less this year. The street
department has about $4,000 at the
present time, and will have to ask for
more probably to carry out the regu-
lar work. l don't see how there is any
money to spare.
1.-THE city is installing a system OF
separating sewers at the present TIM.
and the line has not been laid through
Main street as yet. 1t is impossible to
tell Just when this will be laid. but
when this line which takes the
drainage from the entire side

can readily be seen that the street will
have to be torn up to considerable ex-
tent. This l consider the principal OBJ
lection to laying smooth pavement at

was sufficient money for the purpose
