AT the Presbyterian church yesterday
the pastor, Rev. DR.. Brown, in the
course of his sermon commended the
action of President Roosevelt in declin-
ing on behalf of the nation as ma
ton to receive aid from foreign coun-
tries for the San Francisco sufferers.
He said this country was too rich, too
wealthy, too prosperous to need foreign
gifts. He spoke of the grand outpour-
ing of aid by the American people by
San Francisco, and said that for other
countries to give aid would, in meas
ure be like the giving of money to the
yanderbilts because they lost small
fraction of their wealth. Dr. Brown
also deprecated the besetting sin Of
Alnericans-the hurry to get riches.
There were other things more valuable
than riches, and more ennobling.
Rev. DR.. Stevens Of New York was
the preacher at Battell chapel, Yale5
yesterday morning. His text was Matt
xvi, rs: HE that saveth his life shall
lose it, and he that loseth his life for
My sake shall save it,.
The speaker said In part; Life and
service are concomitants. Everything
we value may be traced back to the
service of some life, and il our service
is to be of any value we must throw
our whole lives into it. Self-denial is
the cost of success in any work. Some
men of earnestness and ability have
been lost sight of because they have
not identified themselves with the right
spirit"
At Trinity M. e. church yesterday
forenoon one new member was received

Several new members are to be receiv-
ed on probation after the postponed
meeting of the church's official board,
which takes place this evening.

BOUGHT BY SANTA FE.
Arkansas Valley Sugar Road Changes
Hands.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Rocky Ford, Colorado, says: 1t seems
definitely settled that the Santa Fe
has absorbed the Arkansas Valley rail-
road, While resident officials of either
company will not give out any positive
information, it is nevertheless a fact
that the deal has been closed.
The Arkansas Valley road is being
built by the American Beet Sugar
Company from Rocky Ford to Lamar, a
distance of sixty-five miles. The line
is now completed to Shelton, an ambi-
tious new town in the western part OF
Holbrook valley, eight miles east OF
Rocky Ford. The grading is completed
to Horse creek, twenty-five miles east
of here and much work has been done
along the line entirely to Lamar. From
Shelton to- Las Animas the survey OF
the Arkansas Valley road and that OF
the Holly & Swink road are parallel
and both are parallel to the Santa Fe
at a distance of from five to ten miles.
The acquiring of the Arkansas Valley
road by the Santa Fe means the aban-
donment of one of the new lines, as the
Holly & Swink road has been Santa
Fe proposition from the start.

COOPERATIVE COMPANY.
Live Stock Growers Will Open Com
mission Houses.

CHEYENNE. Wyo.-The Cooperative
Live Stock Commission Company.
which was organized in Denver last
May as result of the efforts of COM
mittees from the National Wool Grow
ers' Association, the American Ma
tional Live Stock Association. and the
Corn Belt Meat Producers Association,
is getting ready to open houses in Kan
sas City, st. Joseph and Chicago.
Since this independent commission
company was launched in Denver in
May, its officers have been busi1y en-
gagged in taking in new members, is
suing stock, etc. and getting ready to
do business at the markets. Rather
than put in new houses, for one of the
chief troubles has been that of too
many commission firms, the Cooper
ative company decided to buy out old
established firms, and as a result the
work has been slow. At Kansas City
the business of the Burnside-Jardon
company was purchased. At st. Joe
the business of Blanchard & Ehrke was
bought. At Chicago the Sieh & Prit-
chard company was acquired and
houses will be opened at Chicago, Kan
sas City and st. Joseph September
1st
A. l.. Ames, president of the Coop
erative company, will have charge OF
the Chicago house, with ]. G. Eastes,
formerly with Clay Robinson & Co..
as sheep salesman. A. P. Hosmer, now
with the Knollin Sheep Commission
Company at Kansas City, has been en-.
gagged by the Cooperative company
and will be the leading sheep sales
man at Kansas City. At st. Joseph and
Kansas City the heads Of the firms
bought out will be retained In the SER
vice of the Cooperative company.
Solicitors are in the field and a large
number of sheep. cattle and horsemen
throughout the West are taking stock
in the Independent concern. In the
central West and East the feeders arc
becoming stockholders. There appears
to be no reason why the Independent
company will not be success. It will
sell cattle and sheep and hogs at the
old rates in effect prior to the raise OF
81 a car levied by the stock exchanges
during the early part Of this year.

THREE HUNDRED DROWNED.
Italian Steamship Wrecked OF Coast
Of Spain.

Cartagena. Spain.-A terrible ma
rine disaster occurred Saturday even
Ing off Cape Palos. The italian steam
ship Sirio, from Genoa for Barcelona,
Cadiz, Mont ideo and Buenos Ayres,
with about s.J persons on board. was
wrecked off Hormigas island. Three
hundred emigrants, most of them ltal-
ians and Spaniards, were drowned.
The captain of the steamer committed
suicide. The archbishop of Sac Pedro.
Brazil, also was lost, and 1t is reported
that another bishop is among the miss
ing. The remainder of the passengers
and the officers and crew got away In
the ships boats or were rescued by
means of boats sent to them from the
shore. A number of fishermen who
made attempts at rescue were
drowned.
Those rescued from the vessel are
now at Cape Palos IN pitiable condi-
ton, being without food or clothing.
The Sirio struck rocky reef known
as Bajos Hormigas and sank soon
after, stern first. Hormigas island lies
about two and n half miles to the
eastward Of Cape Palos.
The Sirio was owned by the Naviga-
zione Italiana of Genoa.
Before he committed suicide, the
captain declared the steamer had Gas
passengers on board and that her crew
numbered 127 men. The Sirio had
$40 passengers when leaving Genoa,
but additional Spanish passengers
were taken on board at Barcelona
where the vessel touched few hours
before the disaster.
The disaster occurred at o'clock
Saturday afternoon. The steamer was
threading difficult passage through
the Hormigas group, where the Bajos
Hormigas reef is a continual menace
TO navigation.

Paris.-Two months hence aeron-
auts representing every nation will
start from the Tuileries gardens in q
race for the coupe international des
neronauts. Preparations for this
great contest are proceeding apace at
the Aero Club de France. Indeed cor
respondent was informed by the secre-
tary that every detail had seen consid-
cred and settled and the organization
was complete. No effort has been
spared to make the event a sporting
and scientific success. The list of en-.
tries follows:
Germany - Deutscher Luftschiffer
Verband. Baron Hewald. Herr Hugo
and Herr Scherl.
Belgium-Aero Club de Belgique, NJ.

The maximum capacity Of the bal
looms has been set at 1900 cubic met
ers. Many OF them are being speci-
ally constructed for the contest. Re-
Gently the Aero Club de France, which
is the organizing authority for this
years contest, was called upon to take
an important decision. Both the Aero
Club dc Belgique and the Societa
Aeronautioa Italiana asks to be al
lowed TO enter n second balloon. These
applications came after the time orig
inally set for closing the entry list
and were therefore refused The Aero
Club de France pointed out that due
notice of the date had been given and
declined to create a precedent the re-
suit OF which would probably have
been to alter all the arrangements at
the eleventh hour.

Mildred HoIIand.-One of the pref
test scenes in Mildred Hollands new
play, "a Paradise of Lies" introduces
the splendid emotional actress in a
semi-operatic role for a brief space of
time. In the first act. as Lolita, a
flower girl in the market place of A
beautiful Italian town, Miss Holland
dances merriIy, surrounded by admir-
ing peasant folk, and sings a pretty
and poetic love song. This particular
scene has won the greatest applause
and although Miss Holland makes no
pretentions to the role of a Melba, it is
really one of her best bits of work
The dance is a graceful minuet, and
the verses are full of romantic beauty.
