Philadelphia. March IA. eSpec-
ial) - Battling Nelson's claim to the.
lightweight championship could not
be well disputed after tonight's S bat
tie in which he dearly bested Terry
MeGovern, in fight that lasted the
limit, six rounds, as had been arrang-
ed by the National Athletic Club un-
der whose auspices the affair was
given.
MeGovern made a fairly good
showing in the first round but even
then Nelson was his master and in
subsequent rounds he was at the
mercy of the champion. Nelson simp-
ly demonstrated that he was much
the better man. McGovern resorted
to continuous clinching to save him
self from punishment and Nelson

WHAT THE BANQUET MEANS.
General State Secretary Counts it
the Dawn of Great Day
In Richmond.

The question came up in a recent
meeting of the executive committee
of the Richmond Sunday School As
sociation as to whether it paid to
have a Sunday school banquet each
year. There was no disposition on
the part of the committee to discon-
tinue the affair but in order to get
outside opinion on the matter, Prof.
w. S. Fiske wrote to General Secre-
tary Halpenny at Indianapolis for
his views on the matter. The letter
received follows:
I want to express to you the warm
est appreciation of the pleasure and
profit / realized from my recent Wis
it to Richmond, on the occasion of
the Richmond City S. S. Association
banquet March 9th, 1906. Your as
sociation is inaugurating a special
feature of association work, which is
bound to make itself felt in other In
diana cities. Tie more think of the
occasion in question: the more / see
of possibility in it, and the, more /
am confident of the truth Of my sug-
gestion in the little after-dinner talk
that "the Sunday School sun has not
yet risen.'
The Importance of the aim and
purpose of the Sunday school is not
yet fixed in the minds Of even many
of those who are actively engaged in
the work. It is "Sleeping Giant
of the church. The only way peo-
pie will be brought to realize the inn
portance and value of the Sunday
school is by getting them together to
consider it and to hear about it. 1t
is possible to live Sunday school
lifetime without seeing beyond ones
own dooryard. Indispensable to the
best interests of Sunday school life
and work in any city, county or state

not alone at tiny own' merely, but
also with solicitude to "others' and
especially to that forgotten fifty per
cent which apparently belongs to
"nobody."
Your banquet in Richmond means
first of all the assembling of the
workers in each local school, not sell
ishly, nor in self interest directly
Second it means the association of

THE RECALL.

An ancient ghost came up the way
CHE Western way. the windy way,
Across world of land and sea,
With greeting from afar to me:
Hast thou forgot the open way
(The winding way, the wandering way,
With freedom of strong sun and rain
To clear the rowing heart of pain?"
yet still the long roads greet the sun.
And glad wayfarers one by one
Follow the gold day down the West.
That once made part Of my unrest.
Hast thou forgot the ocean way
(The thunderOus way, the wondrous
way,
The fierce enchantment of the sea,
The memory. the mystery!
Yet still the tall ships gather home
From tropic worlds beyond the foam.
And still the southbound steamers go
Down foreign seas thou once didSt know.
Hast thou forgot the forest way
CThe shady way. the silent way.
The thin blue camp smokes in the dawn.
The brave. bright fires when night came
on!
"Still the free forest glooms and shines
With moonlight on the silvered pines,
Although by. hill and lonely shore
Their nosecSs trails know thee no
more"
SO came an ancient ghost to me,
ldling beside a winter sea-
The lost familiar of my breast,
The spirit of the old unrest.

as we'll as capacity. He wears side
whiskers and looks like an English
butler
While for some time he has been
called liberal, it was only in con-
trast with such men as Won Plehve
and M. Sipiaguine, the late interior
minister.
He began his career in the ministry
of justice. In 1895, as the protege of
the dowager empress, he became min
lister of the interior. The student
troubles, the forerunners of the recent
revolution, we're then just beginning,
and M. Goremykin lacked the energy
necessary to end them. He was sup
planted in 1899 by M. Sipiaguine.
Whites Unrelenting Enemy.
N. Goremykin was exposed by Witte
in 1899 and since that time has been
the premier's unrelenting enemy. The
former minister of the interior report
ed to the emperor that the stories of
famine and suffering were untrue.
Wife, who then was minister of fin
ance produced documents to prove
that the conditions were as repre-
scented.
When the emperor confronted M.
Goremykin with this he fell on his
knees and begged for forgiveness.
Later NJ. Goremykin took part in
the Won Plehve cabal which drove
Witte from the ministry of finance in
1908.
The new premier comes from no.
BILE but not prominent family of Nov
gorod province. They are especially
noted for the excellence of their COWS
and M. Goremykin practically sup
plies the capital with milk.
Count White, unquestionably the
biggest man in public life here goes
out unwept and nsung and amid he
rejoicings of the reactionaries who
hate the liberals who distrust him.
Yet even today it is predicted that
when the next great crisis comes the
emperor will be forced to summon
Witte from his retirement.

st. Petersburg, May 3.-The impe.

appear in the Official Messenger today,
and which will mark the termination
Of the Witte regime, was not pub
lished, but to all intents and purposes
M. Goremykin has assumed the helm.
The first evidence of altered policy
is the announcement of change in
the plans for the opening of the ma
tional parliament, the ceremonial of
which, according to semi-official in
timation, would be cut to the mini.
mum.
1t was stated last night with great
insistence that Minister of Justice
Akymof also will accompany M. Witte
into retirement, though he was one of
the staunchest supporters of Interior

with Count Witte, and made himself

RUSSIAN PAPERS WARNED.
Russia Believed to be Playing a Deep
Game in Far East.

st. Petersburg, May 2.-Further in
timation that Russia is playing deep
game in the far East is given in a cir
cular sent by the censors to all news
papers and periodicals forbidding the
publication of any news with regard
to the rehabilitation of the army and
movement of troops in Manchuria and
the reorganization of the military es-
tablishment in the far East.
It is generally supposed the circular
was melted by the publication of the
news of halt in withdrawing the
Russian army from Manchuria and the
dispatch of the Novosti expedition to
Mongolia, which, though supposed
to be general staff secrets, were pub
lished even in official papers, and are
liable to embarass seriously Minister
