HOW JESUS TAUGHT
The Saviour of Men Spoke In
Parallels.
Rev. A. q. Carman Talks About It
His Text Found I'm Matt.
13; 45-46.

He spoke of lilies, vines and corn,
The sparrow and the raven,
And words so natural, yet SO wise,
Were on mems hearts engraven,
And yeast and bread, and fax and cloth,
And eggs and fish and candies
See how the whole familiar world
He Most diviinely handled"
Christ preached sermons for the
times
Perhaps some merchantmen had
struck some great bargain in pearls
and there was great excitement in
the commercial world, and Christ
used this worldly transaction to i'm
press upon their minds the VALUE of
the pearl of Great Price"
We have the truth stated first.
L. The Pearl Seeker.
"The kingdom of heaven is like un-
to merchantmen, seeking goodly
pearls"
The Oriental profession of the
travelling jeweler still exists. He
deals i'm precious stones and pearls.
He may find one which, if bought
with all his present stock, may make
his fortune by being sold at an ex
horbitant price to some extravagant
prince for crown-jewel.
Men will seek for health, for wealth
and honors, and knowledge and pleas
ure
And happy is the man who may find
them.
Wiser is he, however who seeks and
finds the gems of grace, for if religion
is worth anything, it is worth every:
thing.

Grievances Of Employees.

There is every reason to believe that
the mills OF the ]. & p. Coats Co. win
be started up In full on Monday morn
ing next, and that the strikers will all re-
turn 10 their work.
meeting OF tho strikers was held this
afternoon at 2:3O In Mule Spinners' hall,
Pawtucket, at which a committee to con-
fer with the company made report recon-
mending the strikers return 10 work. The
committee had conference this morn
ing with Alfred NJ. Coats and had been
courteously received. Mr.. Coats depre-
Gated the manner In which the strikers
left their work. saying they had shown
the company little consideration, when
the liberal policy OF the company towards
it's employees was known. He was tolo
this because the employees were unorgan-
lied.
Mr. Coats was inofremd the strikers
would return to work N paid the wages
prior TO the 5s-hour law becoming opera
tive. and the demand for a ten per cent
increase would be waived. He replied
that he could not decide the proposition
himself, but should the strikers return
no one would spfrer because OF the strike.
The request would be given careful COM
sideration, and he asked the committee
to wait on him Monday morning next 10
fully present the grievances OF the opera
uves, provided the strikers returned TO
work. He was guaranteed there would
be no repetition OF the strike II the re-
quest was granted and that the strikers
who went out unorganized and would re-
turn as a union. would take the proper
course in future for presenting their
grievances.
The committee consisted OF James Cliff,
secretary OF the Rhode Island Mule Spin
dent; Annie Pearson and Annie William
son, representing the strikers and the re-
Gently formed union OF the textile work
ers.
II is believed that the strikers will fol-
low the recommendation OF the committee
The conference was the result OF a meet
ing OF the strikers held yesterday after
noon. at which time the union was COM
pleted by the election OF additional Of

Ex-MAY0R'S
TESTAMENT
Mrs. Elizabeth Sanford Appeals
From PrObating Of Last viii
Of Or. VIM. YOn GOttSChalk

Mrs. Elizabeth Sanford OF Central Falls
has taken an appeal from the action Of
the probate court OF Central Falls In
admitting 10 probate the viii OF former
mayor OF that city. DR.. William. Won
Gottschalk. Mrs. Sanford is the mother OF
the deceased having after his fathers
death married again.
The petition alleges that the instru-
ment offered as the will OF DR.. Gottschalk
was not legally executed that undue In
fuence and prejudice were exercised on
his mind al and before the execution OF
the will. The action Of the probate court
is declared 10 have been against the law
and the evidence
Mayor Won Gottschalk left an estate
worth 900 and Il was all bequeathed TO

TELLTALE
LETTER IN
HIS POCKET.
wife Had Reason to Suspect
Husband Who EIoped With
Teacher From Providence.

The facts about the disappearance OF
lewis NJ. Drake, principal OF high
school in the Bay state are now coming
forth.
And yet mystery seems 10 attend II. TO
q certain degree. although tho suggestive
story is fairly indicated from letter
found in his pocket by his wife.
While Il was on Monday. May 49, that
he left his home In Huntington, Mass.
still II seems he remained here nearly all
last week with certain friends.
He was seen in the company Of young
woman. but whether she came from At
tleboro or elsewhere is undetermined.
Coincident with the departure, as stated
by the Providence News. last evening,
Of Principal Drake. came the disap-
pearance OF Miss Louise Mcintyre OF the
same Murrayfield school.
Rumors OF their friendship had reached
the ears of Mrs. Drake. but the true
condition of Affairs was not disclosed
until the tell-tale epistle was discovered.
This occurred by Mrs. Drake going to
the postoffce and receiving her hus-
bands mail in his temporary absence.
The handwriting was familiar and that
was sufficient for the aggrieyed wife.
on Sunday she upbraided him and on
Monday he left town coming TO this city.
where. as above stated. he was seen In
the company Of the young school marin
from Attleboro.
Ii is said that on Saturday evening
they took the Baltimore steamer. but
why the couple started In that direction
Is problematical. for he would naturally
be supposed to turn his footsteps towards
the northwest. admitting he had wife In
Michigan.
This is not the first escapade In which
he has figured, for he even asserted hav-
ing a wife and two children In Boston.
After leaving Ware, Mass. where he
was assistant principal OF the high school.
figuring in unpleasant stories. and with
anxious creditors behind, he went TO Bos-
ton and thence to Springfield. nnally se-
curing an appointment as teacher OF
sciences In the Clinton, Mass, high
school.
However. he failed TO appear on the
day OF the opening OF the school and he
later repeated the same performance In
Webster.
For the baby and deserted wife, who
has relatives In this city. there can be
nothing but general sympathy.

shippers that on and after June 1, 81 per
day demurrage will be charged upon cars

OF the anthracite strike and the conse-
auent increased demand for bituminous
coal. are buying the latter and using the
cars for storage purposes. pending a mar

FOR THE BAR.
Radical Changes Made In the
Matter Of Examining Candidates

There will be a radical departure In the
examination OF candidates for admission
10 the bar at the next examination.
This morning the clerk OF the appellate
division OF the supreme court gave no.
tice that the board OF bar examiners
would hold an examination OF applicants
for admission to the bar at the Provi-
tence county court house on Thursday.
July Is. at a. m. and that the exasnna-
tion would last one day only.
{, All applications must be filed with the
clerk OF the appellate division In Provi-
dence on or before IL o'clock noon July
8.
The important change is that the ex-
animation Will last only one day. IL has
been the custom for many years 10 re-
Quire applicants TO take three days
examination. Years and years ago the
examinations took only n few moments.
sometimes only three questions were
asked. one by each OF the three lawyers
appointed by the court 20 conduct the ex-
animation. Some merry stories were
told of those examinations
Since the number OF members OF the
bar has increased 10 a large figure there
has been no merriment about the ex-
aminations. and the three days grind has
been a particularly severe one. Some
thing over year ago a board OF bar ex-
aminers was appointed. the members Of
which serve for number OF years.
The change to one day Is made because
these bar examiners believe after careful
consideration that as fair n test OF an ap-
plicants knowledge can be obtained IN
one day as in three. In Massachusetts,
and nearly all the other states the ex-
Nminations do not last more than one
day. The examination is held some
weeks earlier this year than IL was last
rear.
