REV. DIR. BOWDIsH CALLED.

Saturday morning Rev. DR.. w. w.
Bowdish of the Methodist Episcopal
church, Danbury, received two calls
from churches in Brooklyn. One came
from Embury Memorial, church
which DR.. Bowdish built and served for
five years, and whose official board has
voted to give him a unanimous call to
return. This will be impossible how
ever, as the discipline of the church
provides that a minister must be alb
sent at least five years from any church
before he can return, and DR.. Bowdish
has been away from Embury only four
years
The other call came from Sixth ave-
nuo Methodist Episcopal church and
was also unanimous one. This COM
munication stated that, although DR..
Bowdish was prominently mentioned in
Brooklyn as presiding elder of the
Brooklyn South district, the people of
Sixth avenue hoped he would see fit to
remain in the pastorate, and come to
serve their church. DIR. Bowdish has
the call under consideration

be found a half-page advertisement for
the special shoe sale inaugurated by Mr..
Greenwood, the well known Chapel
street shoe dealer, This is in accord
ance with the announcement previous
ly made in these columns, stating that
Mr. Greenwood has sold his thirteen
year lease to the firm of Howe & Stet-
son. who will connect this store with
their present location Mr. Greenwood
has agreed to go out of the shoe bust
ness and vacate the store inside of four
months.
The announcement was a complete
surprise to the general public, and Mr..
Greenwood states that he had no such
idea in his head two weeks previous 10
the newspaper notice of the change.
Otherwise it is not likely that he would
have purchased so heavily of spring
and summer styles. AS 1t is, he has
already ordered a complete stock of la
dies, gentlemen's, youths and misses
shoes, and is obliged to cut their prices
and in some instances to a figure lower
than what they actually cost him, in or
der to clear out his stock inside of the
time limit.

rested two boys Philo Campose and
Michael Goggins, who are charged with
having almost completely stripped the
old Franklin house of gas fixtures and

on Greene street at the corner of

matter to the police of the Grand ave-
nue. station and yesterday morning
Captain Brewer assigned Ward to the

junk dealers lately a quantity of lead
pipe and plumbing material and ar

hotel by crawling through a broken
cellar window, and through the same
window had taken out all their plum

done to the building. Detective Ward

DENOUNCED LYNCHING.
INTERESTING ADDRESS BY MRS.
IDA WELLS-BARNEII.
Speaker Is President of the Anti-Lynch-
Ing bureau and Made Some Convince
Press Greatly for Its Attitude In tho
Matter.

An audience of about one thousand
men and women attended the mass
meeting ut the Grand opera house yes
terday afternoon, which was held under
the auspices Of the Y. M. c. a.. and ad-
dressed by Mrs. Ida b. Wells Barnett,
chairman Of the Anti-Lynching bureau.
Mrs Barnett is a pleasing speaker and
the audience received her very kindly.
Reproductions of photographs of actual
scenes in some of the well known lynch
ing incidents were shown by the stere-
opticon
The speaker said her attention was
first attracted to the subject of lynch
ing when near and dear friend of hers
became the victim, and knowing per-
sonally the injustice practiced in this
case, she determined to investigate 9TH
er cases. Since then she has been en-
gagged in arousing public sentiment
against lynching, She tried for six
months to get a bearing In the Atlantic
states from Washington to Boston, but
was unable to do so because of the fear
the people expressed of widening the
breach between the north and south.
