Enthusiastic Reception Given to Rev
Dr.. Conrad Yesterday.


Rev DIR. A. q. Conrad was given an
enthusiastic reception by his parishion-
ers IN Yesterdays services at Old South
church.
The morning service might be styled
special floral service with the wealth
Of flowers and potted plants and ferns
that the church was tastefully decorat-
ed with. The word welcome" on a
floral bank was set in front of the gall
lery and facing the pulpit. In the center
of the platform where the patted plants
and ferns were the thiekest. was a min
iature beehive, the gift of Mrs. H. H.
Merriam
DR.. Conrad in his morning discourse
alluded to his vacation and expressed
his profound satisfaction and gratifica-
ton To return to his work. He gave a
brief outline of the years labors before
him. He took for his theme "The rea-
sona'bleness of the largest hope and
spoke to an audience that filled the edi-
fee. He said in part that the best things
in life are the freest His text was:
"Canst thou bind the sweet influence of
sobriety.' The significance of the text
was that there is no MONOPOLY on the
light Of heaven or on the air we breathe
The social distinctions of our time and
the philanthropy of our day is along
this advanced line of thought. The
preacher concluded with tho statement
that only at high attitudes are the hest
things in nature seen and gave an IL
lustration of a sunrise on Pixies peak
where the sun rose with all its natch-
less splendor, So it is in character, ii
is only as we rise above the common
things in life are we enabled to see the
beauties of human nature. In the even
ing Rev. DIR. Conrad took for his text

LaWleSSneSS.
LaWleSSneSS

New York Sept. S.-There were q
number of suicides and attempts at sui
eide, and altogether, the ambulance
surgeons had busy day by reason of
the numerous affairs that took place.
Policeman Patrick O'Keefe. a machin-
list, was shot through the head and
chest by Michael FARRELL, in Farrellfs
saloon on Second avenue. OKeefe
will die. Farrelli was arrested after a
long chase, and desperate fight, in
which he made further efforts to do
murder. A mob of several hundred
people gathered after the shooting, and
made determined effort to lynch the
Italian.
The police beat back the mob, and
one of them sprang at FARRELL and
knocked him senseless, The police then
marched their prisoner to the station.
The mob of several hundred wildly ex-
cited men, women and children surged
all about the police, and finally the po-
lice had to draw their weapons and
force the mob back and fight hand to-
hand all along the line.
The prisoners wife, Mary Farrelli,
was arrested for melting the muir or.
she having given her husband a re-
volYer and told him to nre upon TIE
police when they attempted to raid the
place.
There was riot in Chinatown to-
night, the result of feud of long
standing between the Oriental Benev-
olent Society and the Chu Cheng So
ciety The street in the vicinity was
blocked with a mob of more than a
thousand Cinnamon and others, and a
number of the Mongolians used revolt
vers and blackjaeks. When the rioting
was at Its height, two-score policemen
and a number of detectives put in an
appearance, and had to do a lot of club
bling before the mob was dispersed, and
the prisoners which they made marched
to the police station. Charley Lee. a
Cinnamon. was stabbed in the abdo-
men and will die, Roundsman William
McCluskey was shot through the thigh.
Two other Cinnamon who were shot
escaped through the assistance of their
friends, and We're concealed in the Chi
