while he graphically and feelingly
showed them how they might, and so
often do, earn the wages that pay the
penalty of sin, both physically, NOR
ally and spiritually.
Pathetically, lovingly tenderly and
soothingy, did he picture the earthly
and heavenly reward of those who
transgress none of the laws of God.
1t was a joyous sight to witness how
tan soldiers at that meeting. Per-
haps, it is no exaggeration to say that
ed to roll call. 1t must have been
inspiring to Mr.. Miller, and to the 10
cal pastors who sat upon the stage.
as well as to Mr.. Cary, the represent
ative Of the Y. M. c.. A. under whose
auspices the meeting was held.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Millers
meetings can not be continued and
turned into a series of union meet
ings. The iron seems to be warming,
the blast from the bellows should go
on, and the hammer used while the
steel is hot, so that it may be mould
ed to Gods own liking.
A word more. Mr.. Miller's strength
lies in his wealth of kindness, his
deep personal conviction in the eter-
nal truth of all he teaches, his dwell
ling at great length on the beauties
Of ChristS love and marvellous
strength of character which always
attends a sincere devotion to the cause
of the worlds Redeemer.
AS he goes from our midst Mr.
Miller will carry away with him the
affection and benisons of many
warmly pulsating heart
May God speed MIN and prosper
him as he so richly deserves.
Very truly,
A FRIEND.

SPOR rs

In canvaSsing the merits of the con-
test between Maurice Thompson and
Kid Parker much is taken for granted
through the workouts, says the Spo-
kane Chronicle.
There is held to be not a doubt of
! Parker putting up a great showing
,, better in shape than he has been for
years. But at that the former light
weight champion has a great bit of
work cut out for him.
Parker is working with Joe Gregg,
who is certainly making him work.
In a tryout yesterday, it is reported
Gregg was so fast that Parker had
to ask for more time in which to rest.
His hitting was harder and he dropped
his infighting to give Gregg a chance,
and the Indian took it. Thompson
may never land his right harder than
Gregg did.
One theory is that Parker is making
mistakes in adopting the open tactics
in his practice, and on which he is 60
ing to depend to a certain degree on
winning his fight with Thompson. In
stead of his old rushing, close tactics,
he is fighting open-too open-and is
liable to leave a chance for a knock
out for the husky Montana boy. In
stead of closing up in coming in Par
ker is fighting wide open and leaving
all sorts of chances for that uppercut
which Thompson uses always in a fol-
low from a short left. If Parker is
knocked out it may be when he pulls
both hands down for that old famous
rush, and then meets the two coun-
ters which Thompson certainly can
use.

THEY GET THE OFFICES.
Politicians Say Service Gets Place
From Roosevelt.

TUSCON, Ariz., Nov. 14.-Through-
out the southwest today Rough Riders
are holding office. This is particular
ly true in the four territories, Arizona,
New Mexico, Indian Territory and
Oklahoma, and in the latter two es-
pecially.
"A Rough Rider can get anything
he wants from President Roosevelt by
simply asking for it." is the epitome
in the southwest. So when a Rough
Rider presents himself and asks for
Endorsements ne usually gets them
forthwith. If he presents himself to an
official and asks for a clerkship or
minor appointment, he usually gets
that with equal ease, Endorsements or
no Endorsements. And, further, if he
does not present himself as an appi-
cant for Office he is frequently hunted
out by the politicians and urged to it.
An instance of this mode of proceed
ure is the case Of Captain Frank
Frantz, agent for the Usage Indians.
Frantz came from Prescott, Ariz,
joined the Rough Riders early and was
made captain of Troop A of the regi-
ment.
Each of the republican factions in
Oklahoma and Indian Territory
claimed Captain Frantz as an adher-
ent, and the two have fought over
him-all because he was Rough Rid
er. Because of that ne obtained his
present position, supported it has been
said, by Delegate Mcclure, although
it has been said that, being Rough
Rider, he needed no assistance from
any one.
Flynn is now struggling to get Cap
tain Frantz's support for Governor
Furgeson to succeed himself.
Another member of that famous
regiment who holds office in Indian
Territory and whose history is out of
the ordinary is Benjamin H. Colbert,
marshal in the Chickasaw nation.
Colbert was a private in Troop F of

Land Commissioner E. w. Ross and
Assistant Attorney General A. J. Falk-
ner have received notice from the
United States land office at vancou-
yer that they have won the greatest
they had instituted on behalf of the
state against the homestead entries of
Janey M. Galbreath and Sarah M.
Graham.
These two women were claiming
quarter sections of school lands as
homesteads, alleging that they had
settled upon and improved the lands
prior to surveys and thus had prefer
ence squatter's rights to make proof
as against the states granted right
as school sections.
Photographs were introduced as
evidence by the state. They showed
the respective homes of the two wom-
en- claimants, in which these women
claimed to have lived five years. In
cidentally the photographs showed the
character of timber on the claim
which claims the women asserted were
more valuable for agricultural pur-
poses than for timber.

pleasing, and touching, that you will
anxiously await a repetition OF the
song flight.
These meetings have resulted in
much good to the community. It's
moral tone, at least will, hereafter
be upon a higher plane. A wave OF
moral upbuilding is incipiently in the
air. Men, who have not been attend
ing Mr.. Miller's meetings, have felt
the influence of the preaching of

me about it as 1 meet them on the
street. Surely there is a rich harvest
to be reaped by the Master, as re-
suit of Mr.. Miller's ministrations in
this city. At the same time, Mr..
Miller mas just cause to be gratified
at the immediate results, for he has
witnessed many conversions since his
series Of meetings began.
His labors have been arduous, and
he will certainly garner a rich reward.
AS fitting climax to the good Of

called to the MEMS Meeting" at the

EVANGELIST FRANK MILLER is
AWAKENING ACTIVITY BY
HIS RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
Large Crowds Nightly Greet Reverend
Gentleman and Listen With
Rap: Attention.

Rev Frank Miller, the evangelist
who is conducting a series of religious
meetings in Walla Walla, has in a
sense awakened much interest in
church work in Walla Walla and
nightly he is being greeted with large
audiences that have been attracted to
commentator that have been uttered
not only by the regular attendants or
the church, but fran the lips of many
others who frequently find time to lis
ten to the gospel as interpreted by the
ministers of Walla Walla.
Last night Mr.. Miller held services
at the Olivet Congregational church
in Green Park addition, which brought
forth a large audience. The reverend
gentleman gave an excellent dis
course which was interspersed dur
ing the evening by his extraordinary
singing of beautiful hymns applicable
to the forcible thoughts of his sub
ject that he desires to express to his
hearers.
AS an evidence of the interest that
Mr.. Miller is creating by his work
in Walla Walla the Evening States
man prints the following communica-
zion that was submitted today:
A Friends Views.
To the Editor of the Statesman:
1 desire to thank you in advance
for your courtesy in extending to me
the use of your valuable columns, so
that l may address your many read
ers,. and tell them something about the
services or religious meetings that are
being held under the auspices of the
First congregational church, and the
leadership of the peculiarly gifted
evangelist the Reverend Frank A.
Miller, and who has been ably ana
prayerfully assisted by the pastor, the
Reverend Austin Rice. And in pass
ing, a word of commentator of many
of the other ministers of the city is
due for the encouragement they nave
given to Mr. Miller by their presence
and prayers for his success.
To hear Mr.. Miller is a gain, a
profit; not to hear him is a positive
loss
Mr. Millers style is persuasive,
rather than argumentative The arg
uments in his discourses are furnished
by Gods Word for his sermons are
filled to repletiOn with striking, point
ed and timely quotations from the
teachings of Jesus Christ and the
prophets. The evangelist's persua-
sive points are always clinched-at one
time by the Redeemer's Word; at an
other time by a strong illustration
drawn from the experience of some
one of Gods children, as told by that
same child. At another time, the
speaker will float out into the air, as
it We're, with a soft, tender song on
his lips.
The first time you near the preacher
assume the role of the song bird, you
will be surprised but the effect is SO

President Roosevelt is said to rec

IDENTIFY he gets SO much pleasure out
of honoring members of his old regi-
ment that he does not mind the chaff
that gets mixed with the wheat.
A story which is said to have drift
ed out from the White House shows
that the first thought of the Rough
Rider in time of trouble is his old
chief.
| T., no
was letter from the southwest. 1t was
not very we'll written nor were all
the words spelled correctly. But it
was painfully frank and to the point.
The writer, a former Rough Rider,
mad committed some slight breach Of
law, like shooting up town, killing
a few tenderfeet or something else
prohibited by law. He was anguish
ing in Jail and was without means
to hire a lawyer.
Could he get a lawyer he felt sure
he would get out. Would the prest-
dent advance him $3.50 until he could
return the loan or, perhaps do his
old colonel a favor. The president
mailed a check for the amount at
once.
A few days later came another let
ter from the same man. Much to the
presidents surprise, it contained his
original check for $3.50. An explana-
tory note made matters clear. 1t told
the president that as he had appointed
another Rough Rider district at
torney in that district, the prisoner
had no need of money for a law
yer's fee, for his comrade. had
promptly turned the prisoner loose,
quashing all existing indictments and
telling him to call again if he got in
trouble.
Ben Daniels appointment as mar
shall called forth as bitter opposition,
probably, as any President Roose-
welt ever made, and the former
Rough Rider was accused Of many
things. But there was no denying
| that he had been brave man.
Not alone in the government SER
vice does the fact that an applicant
for a position has been a Rough Rid
er carry weight. Throughout the
southwest there are towns and coun-
ties where Rough Riders hold po-
sitions as peace officers and in like
capacities. More than anywhere else
outside of Uncle Sans service, how
ever they nave drifted into rail-
road employ. In the "speciap' SER
vice Of practically every western
railroad are several Of these men.
The employment Of Rough Rider
frequently means something. AS a

Rider of the right kind is invaluable.
And the fact that a Rough Rider or
several of them, is in the employ of
a railroad having business in WASH
ington is figured on by the corpora
lions as a circumstance which, to say
teh least, will not weigh against it.

He was appointed a probation officer in the re-

1t was rumored about Hoboken yesterday that Mr..
Stevens would appear before the Common Council
at its meeting last night and oppose the renewing
of some of the dance and concert hail licenses Mr.
Stevens when yesterday said there was no
truth in the rumor. He said that after personally
visiting several Hoboken concert halls he had come
to the conclusion that while the moral tone was
not the would expect to find in a

orderly and he did not consider IL his business to
interfere with the renewal of the licenses He said
while he felt that in some Of the concert halls
he recognized, there nothing out OF the

well filed with men and women drinking together
He said he and his friends had several drinks with
the women in some of the places and in view OF
what he saw he did not think 1t his business TO in

He said that he had several children under age
under his Probation Officer, and as he mad
received several complaints that children especially
young girls frequented the concert halls and drank
with men, he determined to investigate these COM
plants He said the women he found in them were
old enough to take care of themselves
