bAPT|STS TO
ROUSE CITY

Rev. DR.. Oliver w. Van Osdel of
the First Baptist church, who was
the chief factor in securing for
Spokane next years meeting of the
national organization of the Bap-
fist Young Peoples Union of
America. as announced in The
Press Saturday, is expected to re-
turn to Spokane on Wednesday.
Fully 10000 people are expected
to be in Spokane during the ses-
sion, which will be held at some
date in July to be definitely fixed
by the board of managers. While
the organization is composed of
young Baptists, many older people
are affiliated with it, and In the
Baptist denomination generally the
union is considered to be one of
the most potent influences for good.
DR.. Van Osdel was enabled to
pledge a fund of at least $4,000 for
entertainment and expenses. The
new armory is to be finished by the
time the convention gathers and
the sessions will be held in that
structure. The coming year is ex.
pected to see great activity among
the Spokane Baptists and increased
efforts will now be made to rush
completion of the First and other
other Baptist churches now in
course of construction or planned
for this city.

A comfortable fortune awaits the

persons wanted for crimes in In

New York.-Havana's handsomest

doors and negotiations for the pur-
chase Of the Miramar Hotel, to trans
form Havana into Monte Carlo, have
come to a sudden end. Burbridge,
head of the Cuban Club, has been

sumably working for him have dis

them and are guarding the doors of
the building on the Gale Virtudes, at
the conner of the Prado, where the
club until now has been in operation.
Burbridge created something Of a
sensation here last year by opening
the club. He said nothing to deny
the rumor that he was backed by
Richard Garfield. Those familiar
with his affairs assumed this to be
correct. He says his partner is Frank
Farrell Of New York.

A definite plan of curtailment OF
Federal expenses has been outlined
by the leaders Of the house, and the
indications are that it will be adopted
as soon as congress reconvenes after
the holiday recess. The determination
OF the majority leaders to prevent any
further deficit, if possible, was first
announced month ago, at which time
the plan Of raDivifying the committee
On expenditures In the executive de-
partments was being earnestly dis
cussed. This movement has now TAX
en- a somewhat different form. It is
declared in authoritative quarters that
the plan most likely to be adopted
will consist of a careful survey Of
prospective receipts by the national
government, followed by an appor-
tionment of the sum likely to be avail
able among the departments proper
tomato to their imperative needs and
the available aggregate. If this policy
IS adhered to, it is maintained, there
will be no reason why, with gradually
growing imports ana incidental in
crease In revenue from the tariff law,
the nation should not show an even
balance at the end Of the fiscal year
for which appropriations are soon to
be made. It is regarded in some quar-
tiers, however, as beyond any power Of
self-restraint hitherto exhibited by
congress to carry out this policy to
the letter, but even in approximate
accomplishment Of the end attempted
would, doubtless, avert the necessity
for providing any additional revenue
raising legislation. Although this
plan originates in the house, it is con-
sidered probable that the senae lead
ers will approve it heartily.
