chuckles ran all around the church.
1t was about that time that Mr..
Goodchild made up his mind that he
would have to enter into dignified
competition with the theaters, and
he submitted to the trustees a
scheme to provide counter attrac-
lions that would keep the people
away from the theaters and get them
into the church. The trustees gave
DR.. GoOdchild an allowance for the
purpose.
Using fifty-two glasses tuned
without water" as the card on the
church bulletin board read, the blonde
man went through his stunts four
times at last nights service, working
in front of a table to the right of
the pulpit. He went at the job in
brisk business-like way just after
the pastor and the congregation got
through with the responsive read
ing. First he played The Lost
Chord. After the offertory he
played "The Palms." and during 9TH
er parts of the service he gave Lead,
Kindly Light" and Nearer, My God
to Thee.
DR.. Goodchild says that anything
that will attract a crowd without
marring the sacredness of worship
is permissible and justifiable.

NEW YORK PREACHER PUTS ON VAUDEVILLE
Church Is Situated in Heart of the Theatre District anc
Sunday Night Shows Interfered With His Services
Musical Glasses Was Last Attraction

The vaudeville offering at the Cen
-ro, BAPTIST church in West Forty
socond street last night, says the
New York Sun, was the musical
classes. 1.-The largest and most COM
nIete set of musical glasses ever
nIaved before the public" said the
announcement on the bulletin board
in the vestibule.
The regular congregation, in
creased by persons that wanted a
vaudeville entertainment without 60
ing to Hammerstein' listened to the
manipulation of the glasses by lit
tlp blonde man, and seemed to be
pleased.
There was no levity about the en-
tprtainment which the Rev. Frank
NJ Goodcbild furnished his congrega-
ZION. 1t was all very staid and prop
or and the service switched from
the scripture reading to finger work
nv the little blonde man easily and
without jar.
Faster GOodchild has made up his
mind that he isn't going to let Sun
day night shows take his cOngrega-
ton away from him without making
fight. and started vaudeville at the
Central Baptist with few stunts by
young woman Whistling week
ago. The whistling girl made such
a hit with the congregation that the
success of the scheme was assured
from the start.
The church, on the south side OF
FOrty-secOnd street, between Seventh
and Eighth avenues, is in the hear
ing of the theatrical district. The
Lyric and Belasco's are just across
the street, Hammersteins at the cor
ner. and the New Amsterdam, Lib
erty, Hackett's and the American TO
the west along the same side OF the
street. The theaters that gave Sun
day night concerts not only cut down
the size of Mr.. Goodchild's congre-
cations, but sometimes in the sum-
mer the songs of the ragtime sing
ers broke in on church service.
One night last summer when the
church windows were wide open and
a show was going full tilt at the
regular vaudeville house on the cor
ner the organ began to play soft,
low offertory music, and the four
yestrymen started the rounds with
their baskets. Suddenly there float
ed in through the windows snatch
es of a song a blackface artist was
singing on the Victoria roof, Il ain t
got no money, but I'm a-goin' to git
some, for my baby, my honey, my
Zulu" Most people in the congre-
cation tried to look solemn and pre-
tend they hadn't heard the ditty, but
it wasn't any use. The filters and

WANT PARDON FOR INDIAN
Ministers of Atlanta Will Petition
Government to Release
Solomon HOtema

At a meeting of the Evangelical
Ministers of Atlanta last week a res
olution was passed appointing COM
mittee to take steps looking to Sc
curing a pardon for Solomon Hote-
ma, a former indian chief who is
confined in the federal prison near
Atlanta under life sentence for
murder.
Solomon HOtema was at one time
chief of the ChOctaw Nation in In
dian Territory. He became educated
and gave up that position to become
a Presbyterian minister, and for a
long time worked with much good
effect among his people.
Then three of his children died in
rapid succession, which crazed him.
He became imbued with the belief
that he must have vengeance for
their deaths by causing the deaths
of three others, and he murdered
three innocent persons. The crime
is said to have been committed as
the result of religious frenzy.
Hotema was convicted and SEN
fenced to be hanged, but upon the
urgent appeal of the Home Mission
Board of his chHrch President Roose-
Welt committed him to life imprison-
ment. The Indian is now in rap
idly failing health and it is said he
cannot live long. 1t is principally
ON this account that an effort will be
made to have pardon granted him
in order that he may not die in
The evangelical ministers also
concluded at this meeting that IF
Atlanta ever needed prayer the city
needs If now" It was stated that
there are things going on in the city
which would shock christian CIVIL
cation. There were, however, no

CLASS POTATOES AS FRUIT
Imported Frogs Legs Assessed for
DUTY as Chickens.

The interstate commerce commits
sion is receiving appeals from the
west to decide whether or not po-
tatoes, squash and melons can be
classed as fruit The question in
wolves matter of free passes under
the rate law.
Congress directed that passes for
the return trip could be issued, with
out violating that statute, to persons
sent in care of stock and also fruits
shipped in carloads. Representatives
OF those industries were very insist
ent upon the exception being made
in their favor.
Shippers of melons, who enter in
terstate commerce annually by hum
dreds of carloads, both from the
south and west, now want similar
privileges. The growers of potatoes
IN Aroostook county, Maine, would
also like to be able to send men with
shipments, if they could be assured
of free trip back from Boston to
Houston, for instance.
But whether the commission will
broaden the legal Interpretation of
II UT W luCluuS vegetables, TO pro-
ducts that grow on and under the
earth, is the question.
IF the shipment of melons enti-
ties one to a free pass, said farm
er in the employ of the commission,
the same must hold for squash, by
gosh. That they are closely related
lis shown by the fact that watermel-
ons and squash are planted closely
together"
The best precedent the commits
sion has found thus far for putting
vegetables in a class with fruit is
a decision of Secretary Shaw, still in
force, that imported frogs legs shall
be assessed for duty as chickens.

WHAT is CATARRH?

Simple Way to Overcome the Dan
gers of This DisagreeabIe Disease.
Stomach dosing in the hope of
curing catarrh of the head and throat
is useless and often leads to serious
stomach trouble.
Hyomei, breathed through a
special inhaler that comes with every
outfit, brings a medicated healing
air to every part of the nose and
throat, killing all catarrhal germs
and soothing and easing any irrita-
ton in the mucus membrane.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, extra bottles of Hyomei if
needed SO cents, and Dawson Drug
Company and Peoples Drug Store
give their personal guarantee with
every package that money will be
refunded unless the treatment cures.
