that heel will be put into service;
what sort of human being it will
carry, sad or glad, rich or poor,
young or old; and what part it will
play in the great human drama.
Will it bear a young and eager
man on buoyant steps to a Sc
cluded TRUSTING place where
loved one awaits him? Or will it
carry an old and feeble one with
tottering steps to the Great Be-

The essential question today is
to remedy the frailties of the hu-

"Good morning. Not too bad"
These are good thoughts. I

This frame could be wound at the

the whole work by battery con-

But, any way, why should they
trouble with all these mechanical
devices in order to extend life +?
Surely again that time the great
life-energy, of which electricity,

CONFEDERATE VETERANS

Nashville, Tenn, Sept. 2S.-Several
hundred delegates representing the
numerous camps and bivouacs OF the
Confederate veterans in this state,
are here to attend the convention
which opened here this morning, for
the purpose of effecting a state or
ganization of the Confederate veter-
ans of Tennessee. Heretofore, the
Confederate veterans of this state had
no state organization and were not
represented in the organization of the
United Confederate veterans. The
plan to form such state organization
was suggested in April and since then
the various camps and Dlvouacs have
unanimously expressed themselves in
favor of forming a state organization.
The n. b. Forrest Camp No. 4, OF
Nashville, took the initiative and sent
out call for the present convention.
The delegates are highly enthusias-
tic and the organization will be per-
fected before the convention adjourns-

Squire formerly was a member of the
Equitable finance committee, and at
one time was connected with the Mer-

in the syndicate operation.
Harry Rogers Winthrop, financial
manager of the Equitable society, was

trustee account loan is carried as a
loan for the Equitable Trust company,
IN the name of NJ. l.. Bailey, trustee.
Winthrop said that the Equitable
Trust company holds the Equitable
Life Assurance society responsible for
the loan and that the account will be
taken up in the name of the Equita-
BILE Life Assurance society. The total
sum borrowed on account of the nav
igation syndicate was $4,000, and on
this $27,5OO has been paid.

RAILROAD BRANCH OF YOUNG
MEMS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
Meets in International Biennial Conference.-The
tended Largely From at Home and Abroad
Members and Railway Officials.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 2S.-Nearly
railroad officials from all parts of the
country, are assembled here to attend
the biennial session, or conference of
the Railroad branch of the Young
Mems Christian association. 1t is by
for the most important conference of
that association ever held, and great
results are expected from it.
The organization is of an interna-
tional character and, delegates from
railroads in Russia, Germany, Eng
land, France, Italy, Japan and other
countries are in attendance. Many
foreign governments have taken great
interest in the work of the Y. M. c..
A., and have expressed their willing
ness to facilitate the work of organ
ization in every possible way. The
same may be said of the manage
ments of the American railroads,
which not only countenance the efforts
OF the association, but give its mem
bers strong support in their work. SO
intimate are the relations between
the managements of the railroads and
the Y. NJ. c. A., that it is believed
the latter organization is destined to
play an important part In the final
arrangement of the relations between
labor and capital, at least in this
branch of industry.
The conference was opened this
morning and the delegates were vel
coined on behalf of the city by Mayor
COdd Responses were made by sew
eral prominent delegates from the
United States and foreign countries.
In the afternoon the delegates, rail
road officials and distinguished visit
ors will make a trip to the Flats, as
the guests of the reception commit
tee.
During the four days of the confer
ence many of the delegates Will ad
dress MONDAY shop meetings, point

st. Petersburg, Sept. 2S.-M. Witte,
senior Russian peace plenipote entiary,
returned to St. Petersburg this morn
ing. The enthusiastic welcome which
was accorded him by waiting crowds
fully demonstrated the great popular
ity of the statesman, and the public
appreciation of the services he rem
dered his country at Portsmouth.
Cheer followed cheer as he alighted
from the train, and when he replied
in an intensely patriotic strain to the
address of welcome, the popular en-
thusiasm found full vent.
The address of welcome is as fol
lows:
"You have accomplished your diff
cult task and the nation is grateful
to you. You have given credit for
your success to Emperor Nicholas,
President Roosevelt, Emperor Will
lam of Germany and to the press. You
have forgotten only yourself. We
however, fully appreciate your serv'
ices to your country. The tree you
planted at the old Washington home
stead, Mount Vernon, will serve as a
token between the two nations. You
