oil, Replies.

Boston. Mass. The Rev. DR.. Wash
ington GLADDEN., of Columbus, Ohio,
has broken forth again in violent in
vective against the acceptance Of the
100000 Rockefeller gift, which has
already been partly spent by the Amer
lean Board of Foreign Missions. In
an article which will appear in the cur
rent number of the Congregationalist
over his signature Dr. GLADDEN. prints
extracts from letters he had received.
The article says:
''The Prince of Monte Carlo has
never been convicted of crime, and is
said to be a cultivated, benevolent gem
tleman. Would they 1.-THE members of
the American board prudential COM
mittee)s accept 100000 from him for
foreign missions, or from the Louis
lana Lottery in the days of its prime,
when 1t heeced its victims under sane
ton of the State?

ever brought me a tithe of the re-
sponses which have been pouring in on
me for the last week. The voices are
at least twenty to one in support of

the brethren who disagree with me to
understand that they are dealing with
a force whose strength they cannot
afford to despise.
There are those who seem to say
that all money, no matter how wicked
ly obtained, not only may, but must be
accepted when offered in aid of relig
ion. or charity. It would seem, then.
that If, standing in my church door, /
see a man knocked down and robbed
in the street and the footpad brings
me part of the money must take it.
1t will go just as far in doing good as
any other money and | have no right
to refuse it."

TAFT HEAD OF GovERNMnNT
Has Taken Over the Foreign Affairs
of the Nation.

Washington, D. G. The unusual
sight was witnessed Of foreign diplo-
mats going to the War Department in
stead Of to the State Department to
conduct business. Secretary of War
Taft entered upon his duties as head of
the Nations foreign affairs as soon as
the President went away, although
Mr.. Loomis retains the title of Acting
Secretary Of State.
Mr.. Taft is now at the head of the
Government, so far as Washington is
concerned. His most important CON
ference in his capacity as head of the
State Department was with Minister
Takahira, of Japan. Mr.. Takahira
talked to Secretary Taft of the general
situation in the East and of the peace
outlook, but not with the idea of MAX
ing any proposals or requests. His
visit 1t was understood, was for the
purpose of acquainting Mr.. Taft with
the situation as Japan views 1t, and Of
getting in touch with the Secretary.

After a Long Struggle Jerry
Simpson Succumbed in
Wichita
For Six Years a Congressman,
He Won Respectful
Consideration

Wichita, Kan, Oct. 24.--Ex-Con-
gressman Jerry Simpson died at 6:05
q. N. of aneurism of the aorta. Mr..
Simpson had been in i'll health for
nearly year. Six months ago he con.
suited a specialist at Chicago, who
pronounced his case hopeless.
Ex-Congressman Simpson was born
In New Brunswick on March 81, 1912.
At fourteen he began life as sailor
and during his twenty-three years fol-
lowing that pursuit commanded many
large vessels on the Great Lakes. In
the Civil war he served in the Twelfth
Illinois infantry. He came to Kansas
In 1878. Originally he was Repub-
lican, but later became a Greenbacker
and Populist. He was q member of
congress from 1891 to 1895 and from
1897 to 1899, being nominated the last
time by both the Democrats and Popu-
lists. After he left congress he moved
TO Roswell N. NJ, where he engaged
up to the time of his death in stock
farming. He returned to Kansas a
month ago and entered a local hos
~pital for treatment. His condition be-
came hopeless ten days ago and since
then the patient kept alive principally
by sheer force Of will. His wife and
son We're at the bedside at the end.
