The ninth anniversary OF the Adams
Avenue chapel of the Second Presby-
terian church was last evening most
fittingly and enjoyably celebrated in
that cozy little building in the presence
OF a very large gathering of people.
The church was very handsomely
decorated and presented a most beau
tiful appearance. The exercises were
opened with a selection by the Second
Presbyterian Sunday School orchestra
followed with an anthem by the chapel
choir, which has been newly organized
This fact, however, would not have
been noticed had it not been mentioned
during the evening
Rev. DIR. Charles f. Robinson, pas
tor of the Second Presbyterian church,
presided and introduced Il. p. Fuller,
who read a paper detailing at length
the history of the chapel work 1t
was first established in June 1890 in
the form of a Sunday school, which
was located in a store room at the
the corner of Adams avenue and
Larch street, which store room is now
a speak-easy, Mr.. Fuller stated.
The work grew so rapidly and the
results were so encouraging that the
Second Presbyterian church decided to
build a chapel in 1899 and it was erect
ed at a total cost of S3,S58 Secretary
George Mahy, of the Young Mems
Christian association, had charge on
Sunday evenings for two years. and he
was followed by Secretary f. w. Pear
sail, of the Railroad Young Mems
Christian association. In 1896 Rev.
John p. Dunn took charge of the work
and he was succeeded in May, 1898 by
A. B. Williams, jr.

THE PRESENT PASTOR.

ReV. James Hughes, the present pas
tor, took charge in January, 1899. Dur
ing the nine years the chapel has been
in existence the receipts from all
sources have been $4,771.49. Mr., Fuller
also read a letter full of good cheer
and encouragement from Rev. Mr.. Will
liams, who is now in Paris.
Thomas Gippel and Ralph williams,
of the Second church choir, next rem
dered most delightfully."- a duet, I'm the
Cross of Christ" after which Rev.
James Hughes made a brief address.
He spoke most encouragingly of the
work being accomplished and told of
the great bond of friendship existing
between the Second church and the
chapel. I'VE have been trying to and
have succeeded in making the little
chapel a center of Christian influence, -
said he in conclusion.
James II. Torrey representing the
session of the Second church, next
made a brief address, in which he paid
graceful tribute to Rev. Mr.. Hughes
and extended congratulations on be-
half of the mother church to the child.
Referring to the fact that the room
formerly occupied by the Sunday
school is now a speakeasy, he said:
THE day of the speakeasy, | am
happy to say, is coming to an end.
The character of the times has not
been what it ought to be, out this
condition will, I am sure, be improved
soon. The first result of our efforts
came today, when the defendants in
all of the speakeasy cases on the list
either failed to appear, thereby for
feiting their bail. or plead guilty. If
we have been afraid of the juries they
were evidently more afraid" These
remarks by Mr.. Torrey were loudly ap-
plauded.
A SOCIAL HOUR.
Miss McGaughey also spoke briefly
of her labors among the parishioners.
The evening was brought to an en-
joyable close with a social hour, when
refreshments were served by the ladies
of the congregation.

RIDDLE IS OUT.
POpulist Chairman Does Not
Ask For Reelection.
Congressman Ridgley viii I'm
doubtedly Succeed Him.
BREIDENTHAL CHOICE.
FavOrS the Third District Man
For Riddles Place.
Political Gossip Which Will In
terest Kansas.

Tt is announced that Taylor Riddle has
decided to retire from the race as can
didate for reelection as chairman of the
Populist state committee, this place being
filled by the convention, which meets next
week.
In the Clay Center convention Riddle
made a fight to retain his position, the
plan of the Breidenthal forces at that
time being to force him to resign. How
ever. Riddle succeeded in keeping his enc
mics quiet then and at once began the
work of arranging to overcome the OPP
position by the time of the state conven-
ton
Mr.. Riddle seems to have been unsuc-
cessful in this move, however, and the
probable nominee for governor, John Bret
denthal, wants Congressman E. r. Ridg-
ley to have the place.
The fact that he feels he would be de-
feated by his enemies. the Breidenthal
crowd, Mr.. Riddle thinks sufficient rea-
son to retire. So the announcement Is
made by his friends that he is out of
that race.
Riddle will retain sufficient interest in
the matter to oppose the selection of R.
H. Semple as secretary of the committee,
but Samples friends laugh at this threat,
and are, so they claim. waiting for a
chance at Riddle
