1t was difficult to predict just what
the result would be in the afternoon.
While four delegates from each parish
were entitled to vote on the informal
ballot, each parish was entitled to
only one vote on the formal ballot.
In outlining the duties Of coadJutor
and stipulating what his necessary
characteristics should be, Bishop
Nicholson in his address said:
LET him be a man with his head
firmly screwed to his shoulders, man
strong in his own convictions and yet
one who knows how to be truly gen
erous and just toward an opponent.
1 would even prefer to have you elect
a man whom We all fairly we'll know,
so that we run no risks. But, OF
course, in this particular you are not
bound. May Almighty God guide
your deliberations, and may peace and
friendship reign throughout this body.
Let no unkind word be uttered and no
partisan expression pass your lips.
"To me the election Of coadjutor
comes closer than it does to any one
of you. The clergy of the diocese, as
a rule, will see but little OF him in
his one or two visitations during the
year. The laity, most of them, will
see him less. With the bishop, how
ever, he becomes member OF daily
intercourse, personal and official, ana
hence, while your interest in this is
sue is properly keen and strong, my
own interests are necessarily stronger,
more constant and sympathetic. When
I think of this coming coadjUtor, soon
to be elected, and when | think OF my
own physical infirmities. likely to in
crease as the years go on, these strik'
ing words of inspiration come upon
me, and not without application: He
shall increase and I shall decrease

1t is a we'll established fact that the

assets of the company were about to
be transferred without the consent
of the pOlicyholders to a company in
another state. Various charges OF
fraud and graft" were also made in
the bill for a receiver.
Angere1 by failure to secure from
the officers of the company informa-
ton as to it's present condition and
as to the purpose of the men in con
troi, the policyholders yesterday form
ulated these questions and submit
ted them to PRECEDENT MOultOn:
"Was contract entered into be-
tween the Western Life Indemnity
company and E. l. Rosenfeld, secre-
tary, for management of company's
affairs? What are terms of that con
tract?"
"Did Rosenfeld pay over to w. H.
Gray, who retired as manager of the
company last February, the sum OF
S215. 900, and how was that sum paid
Is RosenfeI1 receiving commissions
on all insurance policies written and

Admiral William G.. Bushler thinks
every man should be an enthusiastic
believer in himself. I'm fact" says
the admiral, "a man should have as
much faith in himself as an old
yankee I knew had in his watch 1t
was one of those fine old timepieces
which never seem to go wrong. The
farmer took out a city guest to see
the sunrise one morning at a par
ticularly favorable spot. He stood
there consulting first his watch and
then an almanac which contained the
suns schedule. There was long wait
in the pale, vague dawn. Then, tap
ping his watch with his forefinger,
the yankee said. If the sun amt over
that hill in minute and half he'll
be late.'"

SAVE
THEIR TOWN

Edwardsville, ILL.,, Sept. 21.-One
thousand citizens forming a bucket
line probably saved the city from de.
struction by fire last night. The fire
started in a livery stable and was
caused by an explosion of a gasoline
stove. The flames carried by a n1gn
wind, spread so rapidly that the fire
department could not control it and
citizens generally assisted them. The
loss was $4,000.

taken to the society of a cockatoo for
comfort. Mrs. Lehr is said to feel
very much the ingratitude of those

he hopes, with the aid OF a trained
