pose Judas is the only person who has
betrayed the Savior for $50? Every
man who takes money from his neigh

his Master declared Rev. George i.
PcntecOst I'm "a sermon at the Madison
Avenue Baptist church on the subject
Of so-called tainted money"
Some people" he Continued ASK
why need we inquire into the color OF
money. whether 1t be clean or dirty, so
long as It be given to God, for the al
tar sancthes the gift
Il do not hesitate to say this Is the
most immoral doctrine | ever heard.
We must look mt the whole question.
There Is more I'm the Bible about
money than regeneration or forgive
ness, We must ask how God has told
us 10 get money and 70 use money"
The richest man In the world, Dr..
Pcntecost declared, has ben said to

people hail him therefore as one Of the
greatest benefactors ol modern times.
They have raked over his life with a
fine tooth comb and this Is the sum
they have discovered he has given. /
tell You II is no more for that particu-
lar gentleman to have given that enor-
nous sum than II would be for tho man

SALOON H0LD-UP HAS
PROBABLY FATAL END

SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-Two
robbers entered the saloon of John p.
Brutt on the corner of Second and
Brannan streets at an early hour this
morning and ordered the proprietor
to throw up his hands Brutt drop
ped behind the bar and the robbers
fired at him.
Just then a laborer named Thomas
Reilly. who was in the saloon, tackled
one of the robbers. Brutt, who in the
meantime had secured a pistol, fired
at the robber and it is believed struck
Reilly who fell fatally wounded to the
floor. A second shot from Brutt's pis-
tol missed the robbers who broke
through the door on the Brannan
street side of the store and made good
their escape.
The police subsequently arrested n
man who was found lurking in a lum-
Der yard two blocks away from the
Brutt place, and he is held on suspicion
that he was connected with the holdup.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 21.-Monte Attell
of San Francisco has knocked out Kid
Taylor of Chicago after seven fast
rounds fought in a ring pitched on the
top floor of a quiet uptown hotel in
this city. The prize was purse Of
$3.50. contributed by forty-eight spec
tators and the battle was one of the
liveliest seen in New York since the
Horton law was repealed.
Among the spectators were lawyers,
brokers, few theatrical managers
and liberal sprinkling of young
athletes from several college clubs in
town. The orderly quality of the
gathering can be gauged from the
fact that regular patrons of the hotel
knew nothing of the affair.
The fight was pretty much in favor
of the California boy from the middle
Of the second round when Taylor was
rushed to the ropes under rain of
swings to the body. Attell forced
matters in the third and fourth. To-
ward the end of the latter Taylor ral-
lied and brought the blood from his
opponent with a right hook to the
face.
The Chcagoan was soon on the de-
fensive again and by the end of the
sixth he was nearly all out. Taylor
managed to stand up through the
seventh without delivering scarcely
blow. Just before the call of time
Attell drove in a fierce left hook on
the stomach. Taylor doubled up and
fell in his chair. At the call of time
for the next round he could not get UP
although still conscious, so the referee

PACIFIC ELECTRIC
BUILDS NEW LINE
SAN PEDRO BRANCH is NEAR
COMPLETION
SCHEDULE OF As MINUTES
Official Opening Of the Road VIII
Take Place In Two Weeks.
Mr.. Huntington to Be
Present

Within two weeks the Pacific Electric
railway will have completed its San
Pedro line as far as the northern limits
of that city and will at once put on a
passenger service. Within month the
southern terminal of the line will have
been pushed into the heart of San Pedro
and the official opening of the railway
will take place shortly afterward.
Just what the official opening will
consist of General Manager A. d.
SCHNEIDER was not prepared to say yes
terday, but by the time of the roads
completion Mr.. Huntington will have
returned to Los Angeles from his
eastern trip and arrangements will then
be made.
1t connects with the Long Beach line
at Domnguez Junction, runs through
Wilmington and terminates in San
Pedro, making a short cut to that city
from Los Angeles of about twenty
eight miles.
Forty-Five Minute Schedule
No announcement has been made as
to the passenger service that will be
given, but It is expected that the dis
tance will be covered half hourly on a
45-minute schedule, with perhaps more
frequent service at the buster portions
of the day.
At the present time Wilmington has
an hourly service with Los Angeles
from Dominguez Junction, where trans
fer is made from the Long Beach cars.
The San Pedro cars, however, will leave
Los Angeles from the Sixth and Main
streets station.
The most serious obstruction to be
encountered in the construction of the
new line has been the Wilmington
lagoon, where trestle two miles long
for a double track the entire distance
has been built at a cost of $50,000 mile.
1t is the longest street railway trestle
in the United States and it Is a part of
road on which the engineering depart
ment has been laboring for many
months.

that he CTaggart) be tried by court-martial
Captain Taggart lost his temper and said
to Mr.. Smyser: a...
Your position in the matter was that Of
a scandalous villlher. The letter you wrote
to the War department was vile and mean.
1t contained Misrepresentation. Your at
tack was cowardly and, made under cover
of your position" ..-.-
Mr.. smyser had a letter that he had writ
ten to the War department which Captain
Taggart pronounced worse than the one
that had been seen in, the War department
letters. .t..ss,,. ,--.
You know, Mr.. Smyser," continued Tag

vantage of your position as a congressman

piled Taggart.
After recess the letter was produced and

At THE PLAY HOUSES.
.The E,s-witnss.,, at the Krus.

"The Eye-wttness'' at the KruE.
Lincoln J. Carter is a pioneer among the
dramatists who adapts thrilling incident
borne on the solid support Of some clever
mechanical device. and around II write a
more or less coherent play. Year after
year he has gone on, making the impos-
sible appear possible, and telling his story
by machinery, until each time one thinks
he has reached the bound beyond which
he cannot go. In his latest piece, The
Eye Witness" he devotes one act to out
lining the story he. expects to tell, and then
gives over four to the exploitation OF his
mechanics In the second act house Is
destroyed by fire, after the he devil has
chloroformed the inmates-an but the one
who reseues the others and the girl stu
lives. In the third act she is abducted,
drugged and with an hundredweight of
iron tied, about her waist is dumped over
board into Lake Michigan at the end of
the breakwater, Hes body sinks down,
down, down, through the clear green
waters Of the lake. and the EYE witness
dives from another boat and rescues her
again. This is a very effective piece Of
stage realism, and was well carried of
last night. In act four the hero starts for
the old homestead TO find the missing pa
pers, and. the rest follow at different in
tervals The last to start is the eye wit
ness with the girl, They are coming tear
ing down the street In an auto to catch
train that is due to leave in three min
utes. The he devil is on the spot, and,
slugging the keeper at a bascule bridge
after vainly trying to bribe him, he opens
the bridge. Too late. for the auto simply
runs up the incline, leaps the gap and
glides down ON the other side. and the
girl and the assistant hero are in time to
catch the train. This, too. is a new effect
In realism, and is carried out in a most
spectacular manner. the couple in the car
taking a long chance with accidents In
their perilous flight across the stage. In
the fifth and final act a tornado tears things
up, brings the missing papers to light, and
all ends we'll The company supporting
this fine lot Of scenery, and mechanical de-
vices is very good, and the whole Is quite
UP to the Lincoln ]. Carter standard. The
piece has no she devil, but the head he
devil has an army Of assistants and needs
them all, The story doesn't amount to
shucks. It's the scenery that counts. '"rhe
Eye Witness" will be the bill at the Krug
until after Saturday night, with the Gus
tomary matinee on Saturday
