CHURCH WORK SPREADS
THROUGH PHILIPPINES
Monsignor Fowler, Assistant to Arch
bishop Harty Tells of Condi-
tions in Islands

Monsignor Fowler assistant to Arch
bishop Harty of Manila, is a visitor at
st. Vincent's college. He will leave
today for Mexico on business con-
nected with the church. After visit
ing there he will return to his former
home in st. Louis.
Yesterday at the college the monsig-
nor said he had been in the Philippines
little more than one year as assistant
to Archbishop Harty as his secretary.
The monsignor in telling of the work
of the church there said that within
the year the archbishop had confirmed
100000 children in the archdiocese
which consists of a Catholic population
of two million people. This gives
somewhat an idea of the enormous
work of the church there, where the
native population is entirely Catholic.
The monsignor said that since the
advent of the Americans there the
islands are more prosperous and that
English is now taught in the parochial
schools.

NO PIN MONEY
FOR HER HUSBAND
RAMON HIGUERRA'S DAUGHTER
IS DIVORCED
August j. Kruger Declares That His
Spouse Refused to Allow Him
to See Her Bank
Book

When his spouse refused him per-
mission to glance at her bank book,
August ]. Kruger objected, all of
which was not in the least conducive
to his domestic happiness, and last
year when Mrs. Rosario Kruger
loaned her relatives money trouble be-
gan to brew.
The plaintiffs wife was formerly
Miss Rosario Higuerra, the daughter
of Ramon Higuerra, pioneer and
wealthy freeholder
The couple were married at the
Palms in October, 1898, and they dwelt
in happiness until Krueger asked his
wife for money.
But Mrs. Kruger held the bank
book and refused.
Kruger told the court that he was
forced to sing the baby to sleep while
his wife walked around in her garden
When Mrs. Krueger loaned her
brother-in-law, John Chapman, the
sum of $4,000 her spouse objected, but
in spite of his many objections Mrs.
Kruger would not permit him to look
into her bank book.
Finally, because he refused to join
her church in preference to the one
which he attended, Kruger asserted
that his spouse declared him to be a
bad" man, and with this she deserted
him.
From the tale unfolded to the court
by the plaintiff it appears that his
troubles did not end there, for when
he visited his child his sister-in-law
had him thrown into Jail for disturbing
the peace.
Since that time Kruger has pleaded
with his spouse to repent and return
to him, but in each instance, so Krue-
ger declared, his wife remained OBJ
durate.
An agreement touching the property
rights Of the respective parties was
entered into some time ago and all
Judge York had to do was to grant
the divorce.

first the speaker considered his field
was one that needed little working.
Mr.. Slough spoke last night from
Revelation 1920, THE Knocking at the
Hearts Door," saying that the mys-
terry Of the ages is the thought con-
tained in this verse. God represents
himself as knocking at the door Of
mems hearts for admittance and the
great sin is the refusal to admit God
into the heart"
DIR. Slough said the chief difficulty in
winning men to Christ is in making
them listen to the word of God. THE
world Of pleasure and business and
money getting so engages the atten-
tion of men that they spend little
time on the more necessary things of
life" he said.

ALL EQUAL BEFORE COP
DR.. Chapman Shows the Folly of So
Called Differences

Dr. Chapman resumed his work at
the Temple auditorium again last
night and preached to 5000 persons.
His text was from Romans 1922:
"For there is no difference"
when 1 first began preaching" said
DR.. Chapman, Il could not use this
text, and 1t was not until later that I
learned the wonderful truth of it.
"There is no difference. You will
say to me, is it possible that you
would make no difference between a
murderer and a man who is respected
in society," and 1 will answer, yes and
no. AS far as the degradation goes
one is very much below the other, but
in the sight of God there is no differ
ence. If the rejection of Christ is the
greatest sin, and that is the one which
was committed by the moral man,
then there is no difference.
mo man should lay claim to right
eousness without accepting Christ. All
have sinned and come short of the
glory of God. There is no morality
away from Christ. There is no hope
away from the Son of Man.
"Why are you lost tonight? Simply
because you are away from Christ
You are not under condemnation be-
cause of inherited sin, but because Of
your rejection of the Savior. And if
this is your case you are as lost to-
night as if you were i'm the depths of
iniuuity. You are not dealing with
men, and you are not facing a propo-
sition of men.
"You have a secret sin, and unless
you confess it to Christ 1t will make
it's record and you will some day be
called to face it,"
The speaker closed with the text
from Romans 11:12: For there is no
differences for the same Lord over all
is rich unto all that call upon him."
He gave this as the opposite picture,
or the other case in which there is no
difference.
The after meeting was of the old
revival kind.

What Is Worth While?

Rev. r. A. Walton at the Advance
Buggy company's building last night
discussed the things that are worth
while. His text was "What Is Worth
While?" and he spoke of the different
things which men strive after and the
waste Of time which is expended un-
less there is deep purpose and true
desire. He declared that after the
years Of toll after worldly power and
riches man was still left with feel
ing Of dissatisfaction unless he has
Christ in his life and has accepted him
as the Saviour. The Welsh singers
were again at the meeting and the
Welsh harpist played several selec-
tions.

BREACHES ON ETERNITY
DR.. Elliott Asks the Question, "After
Death What7"

DR.. Elliott preached at the Asbury
Methodist church last night on eter-
nifty, and asked the question, After
life-what? After death-what? And
after Judgment-what?
The text was what then shall do
when God rlseth up, and when he ris-
eth what shall answer him?" what
will eternity be?" he asked. ut may
be reunion with friends or 1t may be
separation from all that is good and
true and from those we love.
"The wise old Greek used to say con-
slider the end, and the end will come
sooner or later, and with it the settling
of the question, for death will settle
the soul.
There are only two possible mas
ters, two possible ways and two ends.
Which will you choose?"

Every fifth boy in this land be-
comes a drunkard, only five out of
every hundred are found in the
churches" This was the startling
statement made last night at the evan
gelistic meeting at the Olivet church.
"The Language of a Deck of Cards"
was the subject of the sermon in which
Evangelist Tilman Hobson scored card
playing in heated terms and enumer-
ated the evils which he said usually
follow the dance. The text used was
from Proverbs 14:12-"There is a way
which seemeth right to man, but the
end Of it is DEATH"
He said: warnings are found every
where; there are flags on the railroad
crossings and lighthouses on the high
seas, but they are not always needed.
Practice what you preach but don't
preach what you practice. There are
men who are detailed to catch dogs
and when some pet dog Is caught that
cost probably a thousand dollars, there
is a big fuss made by the owner, but
mothers boy who would not bring
big amount of money is easily trapped.
1.-THE saloons are open to him, the
dance hall is ready to send him to de-
struction and the gambling table
beckons him to the same road"
The speaker told the story of a
mother who exhibited a cut glass vase
to her son and announced that she won
at euchre party the night before.
The son pulled forth wallet and said
that he had done better than that play
ing faro. The mother looked in horror
at the boy and said: "My son, did
not think that you would gamble" He
replied: Mother, did not think you
would gamble"
Special musical numbers were given
by Russell Sturgess, Mrs. Edward Ed
ridge and r. N. Jeffrey.
