"poN,r BE GOOD FELLOW"
Rockefeller Says Such Men Arc q
Curse.

A dispatch from Cleveland Ohio. last
night says: John D. Rockefeller loves his
fellow men. He despises the good fellow
The ruin of the world by drink he lays at
the feet Of the moderate drinker. These
things he told the Mems Bible class at the
Euclid Avenue Baptist Church today.
It was Just at the close OF the morning
services in the basement of the church
where the class meets. The news that Mr..
Rockefeller was to speak crowded the room
with men OF the church. 1t was the first
time that he had spoken before the class
this summer,
I'm extremely happy to meet you. men,"
said Mr.. Rockefeller, with the slowness
which makes his addresses impressive. His
head he held high, and his voice. though
we'll modulated, carried to every corner OF
the room.
continued II love my fellow-man: 1 take
great interest In him; he Is worth the deep
est study. For instance, what man is 1t
who drags society DOWN. he asked. Sew
eral answers were made.
81 had in mind the moderate drinkers.
There the greatest evil lies; there the
degradation; there the disrepute' there the
sapping of the all the world.
Don't be a good fellow. You know what
I mean Don't be conyivial, always ready
to pitch In and be one of the crowd. Be
moderate Be very moderate. Don't let
your good-fellowshp get the least hold
upon you. If you do. you are lost. abso-
lutely. Not only you. but your progeny.
the family for generations to come. There
lies the trouble.
Now, I can't be good fellow. haven't
taken my first drink. SOME Of my friends
think that I'm too radical on this subject.
They say that I take too decided stand
But I don't.
IT have watched society. AS I have said.
I love my feilow-man. and have studied
him carefully. 1t Is my firm conviction
that every downfall Is traceable, directly
or indirectly. to his good fellowship.
His wish is to be one Of the fellows
to be noted for his fellowship and his good
cheer among his friends, who come as
quickly they go.
1--WE have to apologize every day for this
class Of man. He fills our asylums. He
fills our hospitals. poor houses. the very
cutters Of our streets. Look on him. and
don't be a good fellow"
This was his parting word. He asked
to be excused and left the room. going to
the Sunday school. and afterward to the
church services.

PORTSMOUTH. Va. September 1l.-Four
coroners juries sat today to fix the respon-
ability for tina awful accident at Bruces
station. on the Atlantic Coast Line. on the
18th OF August In which nearly twenty peo-
pie lost their lives when a colored excur-
sion from Kinstoa and Greenville. N. c..
dashed at high speed through the draw
bridge on the western bridge OF the Eliza
beth river. being drowned like rats In the
stream below.
The engineer testified that he was unac-
Quainted with the road and did not know
the location of the drawbridges along the
route. save by the signboard. half a mile
from each of them. and that he did not see
the one near Bruce. the open draw yawn-
ing directly In front Of him being his first
intimation OF danger.
Cpon the strength of this testimony the
jury from Norfolk city, which sat with that
from Norfolk county. rendered a verdict to
the effect that the victims who died In Its
jurisdiction came to their deaths by an
accident on the Atlantic Coast Line. and We
the jury find the said Atlantic Coast Line

gence in placing or permitting to be placed
