NEW TWIST GIVEN THE RATE LAW

Paid Twice.

FALLS CITY, Neb., Oct. 1S.-(Special)-
A new reading of the Interstate Commerce
law was given by the Missouri Pacific rail-
road at this place when it refused to re-

Jerry and John Kanaiy were wrong and
they had to get them changed at Kansas

given TO Jerry from Kansas City to welch
and back and other tickets from Kansas
City to Falls City. In some way the tickets
from Kansas City to Falls City were mis-
placed by Jerry, and when they reached
Kansas City on their way home he could
not find them. He told the conductor of the
circumstances and the conductor made him
pay his fare from Kansas City to Falls
City for him and John Kanaly, giving re-
cetpts for the money and informing him
that he could get his money back by re-
turning the tickets he had misplaced and
making the claim
When Jerry returned home he found the
tickets in the lining of his coat and put In
his claim to the railroad, and the only sat
isfaction he could get was the letter from
the head office. as follows:

except one. making their reports al- most perfect.
 Mir. Sawyer, in his address on The Superintendent" dwelt on the dangers which confront the Sunday School Su- perintendent in the tendency to get ly upon the Lesson Quarterly and les son helps. He said the tendency was to minimize the Bible as a book of study and magnify the Lesson Helps. He thought it unfortunate, that 1t should be called Sunday School'j 'jrath- CT than Bible SchooT' and insisted that snperintendents and Sunday School the Bible instead of the Lesson Quar- terly.
 Superintendent S. c. Starke of the Court Street Methodist Sunday School made one of the best addresses of the session on The Superintendent |" He elassed the duties of the Superin- tendent under three distinct heads The first and most important Of which is his religious duty
 "The first requirement in a superin-
 lent" he said, Ifs desire to save souls and high degree of censecratIon | to the work. He should be a thorough and consecrated student of the Bible. The great temptation of a Superinten- dent, knowing that he will not be called upon to speak on the lesson | is to neglect the careful preparatien of the lesson; he cannot be a successful superintendent without a thorough knowledge of the lesson any more than a great General of an army could be a success without a knowI- dege of his duties and a love for the cause"
 The second requirement. of a good su- Derintendent, according to MT Starke is executive ability. He must. first. attend to the organization of the school
 One of the troubles of the Sunday School work of today he said, "is that there is not enough of definite, con crete exactness of organization.
 'If in our Sunday Schools there ob- tained the same degree of promptness | and exactness as in our day schools | the children and pupils would be more | interested. Organization is one of tho most important functions which the SUI perintendent is required to perform.
 Tn this conviction I run counter frequently with some of the opinions of people with whom come in con tact"
 Under the head of "Executive Duties MT. starke continued:
 "The superintendent should inspire his officers and teachers with the i'm portanca of their work He should make the secretary understand that his ofiee Is one of the most important in the school He should inspire tht teachers with the importance of theii | work and when he does this, his schoo is an assured success.
