A "aet Together" Movement.

New York, July 3.-Under the auspices
of the order of B'nai Birth, a meet
ing was held in this city at which sew
eral hundred Jews gathered to take part
in the beginning of a great 'get-to-
gether" movement among the race in
the United States. There are many
Jews in America who have practically
ceased to take interest in things Jewish
according to students of the subject, and
this state of affairs is due to several
causes, principal among which are the
difference due to the divergence OF
origin among them and to the great
change in conditions of life here from
what they have been accustomed to in
their European homes. The new effort
is a part of the plans for the general
advancement Of American Jews which
led recently to the election of DR.. Solo
mon Schechter to the presidency of the
Jewish seminary.

COSTIGAN MAKES PROTEST.
Doesn't Want Poland Taken to
Illinois.

W. ]. Costigan, of Ottawa, came up
last night to resist a requiSitiOn which
he supposed would be here from Cover
nor Yates of Illinois on Governor STAN
ley for Charles F. Poland, of Franklin
county, but the reQuisition had not ar
rived.
Costigan wanted to resist it. He did
not let little thing like the absence Of
the requisition interfere with his inten-
lions, however, and he went ahead and
resisted it anyway.
AS near as could be gathered Poland
is wanted at Petersburg, Ill, for desert
Ing his family, which is crime in that
state. Costigan presented an affidavit
from Poland, who is under arrest in
Franklin county on the strength of
telegram from Illinois. The affidavit
says that Poland married Miss Clara
Noble in August, 1898, and they lived
together until the next summer. Poland
says he found a note one day when he
got home saying that his wife had gone
home to live with her mother and
wouldn't live with Poland any longer
He claims he went to see her several
times and asked her to come back to
him, but she refused. He was in bad
health and went to South Dakota, and
finally to Franklin county, Kan, where
he is now farming. He says he is willing
to live with his wife if she will come to
Kansas and live where he can support
her. He says he doesn't know of ANY,
thing else for which he would be likely
to be arrested.

NOT IN SCHOOL HOUSES.
School Boards Have No Right to Let
Them for Dances.

School boards have no right to allow
dances in country school houses-or any
other school houses for that matter
according to a decision just rendered by
State Superintendent Nelson.
Out in Logan county there is a COM
munity where it has been customary for
the young people to hold their dances
in the district school house. Not long
ago they held one on Saturday night.
There are in the locality a number of
Seventh Day Adventists, and as they
observe Saturday as their Sabbath, this
was too much for them, and they have
asked Superintendent Nelson if it is le-
gal to hold dances in school houses
Superintendent Nelson has been looking
up the law on the subject and has con-
cluded that school boards ought not to
let school buildings for thus purpose.
