THE LOST SOUL.

BY John Vance Cheney
A lone soul came to Heavens hard gate.
Low at the warder's feet she fell.
Sobbing, she said she had not knocked 10
late
But for the many roads to He'll.
Stroking her bowed, unmothered head.
Up spoke the good old warder gray;
This child, too fair, high up let her be
led
Past them that never lost the way"

THE FANS ECLIPSE

THE FANS ECLIPSE.
The seasons drawing to a close,
The fan is full of woe.
To doubie-headers now and then
Alas. he will not go.
His afternoons will be blank.
His morns devoid of talk
Therell be no joy in life for him
No place to ride or walk.
His voice upon the bleaehers will
No longer rend the skies,
His eagle eye will cease to scan
The clouds for dizzy flies.
The umpire will be safe from him,
Therell be no chance to root,
No way to work a frenzy up,
No cause to yell and boot.
bor many weary months, 1 wis,
He'll wear gloomy face,
But when the gentle spring returns
Twill find him in his place.

FUGITIVE PRIEST
WAS SOUGHT HERE
Former Divine Wanted at TROY
Was Thought to Have Been
in Richmond.
SEARCH WAS FRUITLESS
OHIO OFFICER HAD RELIABLE
EVIDENCE THAT THE MAN HE
HUNTED HAD BOARDED A
TRAIN FOR THIS CITY.

Constable Bumbli of Troy, O., was
in the city yesterday presumably
searching for a man named Knipper,
former Catholic priest, who is wan
ted in Troy, O., to answer a charge of
criminal assault on a young girl
When Knipper learned that a war
rant for his arrest had been sworn
out by the father of the young girl
he left town and has been a fugitive
from justice the past six or seven
weeks.
Constable Bumbi stated yesterday
that he had learned that Knipper
had gone directly from Troy to Gin
cinnati but all traces of him had been
lost until last Saturday when a Troy
newspaper man, who happened to be
at the Union Station in Dayton, O.,
noticed the ex-priest alight from a
train. The reporter stated that Knip-
per went to the ticket office and pur-
chased ticket to Richmond and that
he saw him leave for this city on
P. G. G. e L. train No. 21.
When this information was sup
piled Bumbi came to this city hoping
that he might apprehend his man
here, but search, in which he was
aided by the local police, failed to To-
cate Knipper's whereabouts. 1t is
thought that Knipper did not stay in
this city any length of time, probably
changing cars here. He is described
as being large, fine looking man.
While at the station last evening
Constable Bumbi met the conductor
on an east bound train, who was in
charge of train No. 21 last Saturday.
For the purpose of learning what in
formation this conductor could di-
vulge Bumbi accompanied him to
Dayton.

May Festival Opened Last
Night Under Most Auspi-
cious Circumstances.
PROF. EARHART'S OVATION
MUSIC LOVERS OF CITY TRY TO
SHOW THEIR APPRECIATION
FOR HIS EFFoRTs-A CRITICAL
REVIEW.

Under conditions that certainly
could not have been more favorable,
the opening concert of Richmond's
Centennial May Festival, was given
last evening in the Coliseum before
an audience that numbered fully $500
persons, and which was thoroughly
repre- sentative of the city. The size
of the audience was of itself a most
gratifying feature Of the first
night, for as was generally known the
promoters of the festival had been
greatly apprehensive for several days
past that the apparent lack of appreci-
alton meant financial failure for the
undertaking. The lower floor and the
balcony terrace were almost complete
ly filed and the gallery held a fair
sized crowd. So great was the crush
OF arrivals at 8 o'clock, that it was
with difficulty that the ushers could
handle the crowd and there was a de-
lay of nearly half an hour in begin.
ming the program.
The hall was simply, though attrac-
lively decorated. The extreme west
gallery above the chorus was banked
its entire length with palms and 9TH
er tropical plants. The glare of hun
dreds of incandescent electric lamps
had been softened effectively by en-
casing them in Japanese lanterns, and
the effect of this method of decora-
tion was strikingly beautiful.
Chorus Grouping Effective.
The chorus of tw hundred and fifty
voices, was stationed Immediately be,
hind the orchestral platform and the
grouping of this great organization of
singers was most eNsctive. 1t was a
picture that aroused the deepest admi.
ration of the audience.
The Theodore Thomas Orchestra,
Numbering sixty-two pieces, and the
soloists of the evening, were all ac-
corded enthusiastic welcome, but the
real ovation was when Mr.. Will Ear.
hart stepped upon the platform to di.
rect both chorus and orchestra for
the concluding number of the pro.
gram, THE Crusaders The rendi.
ton of this masterpiece fulfilled the
expectation of the audience and Mr.
Earharts warm reception was we'll de.
served.

Methodists Will Try to Arouse
Old Time Enthusiasm in
This District.
WILL BE HELD IN JULY
STEWARDS IN SESSION YESTER.
DAY AT GRACE M. {. CHURCH,
RAISE SALARY OF PRESIDING
ELDER TO $4,000.

In order to inspire a little OF the
old time Methodist fire into the hearts
of the members of the church and 9th,
ers who may join, the Rev. Thomas
NJ. Guild, recently elected presiding
elder of Richmond District, recon-
mended yesterday, at the annual meet
ing of the pastors and stewards of the
church, that three camp meetings be
held this year. and after some discus
sion, it was decided to accept the plan.
For years, camp meetings have not
had the popularity that they once had
and have been dropped for a long
time from the Methodist church OF
this district An effort will be made
to revive the old fashioned spirit this
summer, however, and the three tent
camps, each lasting ten days, with
noted evangelists on the platform,
are expected to accomplish much for
the church.
First at RidgevIIe.
The first of the tent camp etings
will be held at Ridgeville, and will
begin about the first of July. This
Will De IOT Iue HOIlu part VI lu0 uiS
trict. The second will be immedi'
ately afterward and will be held at Os-
borne's Lake, near Economy. This
will last the same length of time, and
the same religious speaker will be
heard. The third will be at Dublin,
and will occupy the last ten days OF
july.
There was considerable other bust
ness before the meeting of stewards
yesterday. 1t was decided to raise
the salary of the presiding elder to
$4,000 per year, and a committee was
appointed to apportion the charges to
each church. The coming meeting
of the Epworth League was discussed
and it is probable that there will be a
large gathering at Farmland when the
meeting is commenced. The Rev
Mr. Guild made few remarks before

pledged their support to the new pre-
siding elder.
