About ROckefeIler's Gifts

Rev. DR., Buckley, editor of the
Advocate, an organ of the Methodist
church, having asserted that he would
take money for his hospital from any
one who had legal title to it, Rev.
Charles Crane, pastor of the Peoples
Temple, Boston, replies in a caustic
vein by saying: "The editor of the
leading Methodist advocate asserts
that he will take money for his
hospital from eny one who has a title
to it. Had he been one OF the high
priests or elders who spnrned the
thirty pieces Of silver that Judas
lscarlot tried to give to them he would
have justified the acceptance of it on
the ground that be should not inquire
into the source from which the money
came-which shows one difference
between modern Methodist and an
ancient jew" Rev. Mr.. Crane,
himself leading minister of the
Methodist church, seems to have
given Rev. DR.. Buckley something to
think about. Bryant s Commoner.

BIG ICE FACTORY
is A PROBABILITY
Number of Parties Are Said to Be Figuring On Plant Which Will
Have Capacity of 200 Tons Per Day-RepOred
Work Will Soon Commence

course of the next few weeks.
According to what can be gathered
from various sections a number Of the
saloon men are behind the move, and
claim that they will furnish as much
capital as is necessary for the con-
struction and operation of the plant.
Several of them, so il is stated, are
dissatisfied with the delivery of ice
and the charges on the same since the
combination of ice factories has been
formed. and intend starting a big plant
of their own, which will not only fur.
nish all OF the ice that is necessary
for their places, but also furnish it to
the public.
Many parties are claiming that the
present delivery service is not what
it was formerly. and that the combina-
ton has raised the price of ice. This,
they claim. has caused dissatisfaction,
and several parties who nave money to
put into such an enterprise. claim that
they will start rival factory. which
will furnish ice to the public at reason
able rates.
Il was stated yesterday afternoon
that plans for the factory had been re-
ceived and were inspected by the par
ties who propose TO invest their cash
in the construction of the new plant,
which will probably be located in the
vicinity of the Moore Ice Works.
