DEMOCRATS HELD ANOTHER
POW WOW SATURDAY NIGHT.
cratic Supper Followed the Discussion and Plans Were
Made for the Coming CampagnWant All 10 Get Together

Democrats from the different
wards in this city We're present at
meeting and blowout" held in Nc
Kinley hall, in Prospect street, Satur-
day night as the guests of the Flat
iron Democratic Club, which is COM
posed of democrats of the third and
fourth wards.
a NEWS reporter talked with over
4 half dozen democratic leaders this
morning and while they would all ad-
nit that a meeting had been held,
none of them would say what the af-
fair was for, but it was learned from
good authority that it was part of the
plan of the democrats all over the
city to get together and try to hus-
tie things as much as possible for
the fall campaign.
The meeting, it is understood. was
in charge of James j. Garland and
Timothy Griffen. They and number
of others made speeches urging, so it
is said, that the democrats through
out the city get together as rapidly as

MONEY FOR
THE TROPHY.
More Contributions Received for
the Cup TO be Bought for the
Factory League.

The fund for the purchase of a
trophy for the factory baseball league
is gradually growing despite calls for
contributions for, other purposes,
and there is every reason to believe
tha business men of the city will
contribute 500 or more. That will
be sufficient to purchase Il trophy for
which the teams representing the in
dustres which are the support OF
the city may compete each year until
one team has won the championship
three years, when that team would
gain permanent possession of the
cup.
The league committee reports sew
cral more contributions today and
the fund will increase, it is hoped,
until The requisite amount is sub
scribed IF there is not enough in
terest and enthusiasm among our
business men to get together a pal
try 500 or so, then this city has no
right TO the title of baseball town
The contributions to date are as

guests present enjoyed a bly, feed. +"
Most of the crowd did not get away
until a late hour. Another meeting
has been called for two weeks hence.
At the next meeting it is expected
that an effort will be made to organ

city, in one huge club. This club is
to have special committees and Off
GERS and will hold meetings and col

party

LOCAL CHURCHES ACT
FOR THE SUFFERERS.
Sermons, Prayers and Collections
Mark the Days Services Here.

IN nearly all the local churches the
San Francisco catastrophe was men
toned yesterday, either in sermons
or prayers. Contributions were call
ed for in some.
At st. Mary's.
At all of the masses in st. Mary's
Roman Catholic church in this city,
yesterday morning, prayers we're Of
fered for the repose of the souls of
the dead and for the recovery OF the
sick and injured in San Francisco,
and at the last mass the pastor, Rev.
B. T. O'Connell, preached sermon
on the disaster
Father O'Connell spoke with much
feeling about the great calamity that
had befallen the city. He told of the
great growth of San Francisco and of
the hard and faithful work of the
thousands of good people who had
built up such beautiful city. He
brought out the fact that in the midst
of life we are in death, for God is all
powerful and can do everything. He
spoke of the class distinction in San
Francisco, as in other cities, before
the earthquake and fire reduced it to
ruins, and of how now the rich and
the poor were compelled to work
side by side and in the first few days
were compelled to stand in line to-
gether to get the bread and water
that the soldiers passed out to them.
One thing that the misfortune
brought out, said the priest, was the
charity of the thousands Of good peo-
pie all over the world, who stood
ready to help and of how within d
| little time millions of dollars had
been raised and food supplies were
on the way. but worse than all now
was the pestilence that was bound to
come and to kill probably more than
the earthquake and fire.
people think dynamite and gun
cotton are dangerous" said the pas
tor, "and few will go near where a
charge is to go off, but often do we
forget that we are living on what is
most likely a thin crust of earth I'M
der burns nobody knows what, and
from which an eruption may break
forth at any time" The pastor said
that it was expected that the Catholic
church would be asked to help the
sufferers in that western city where,
until the earthquake and fire, Cath
olic churches had flourished and been
prosperous and he was certain that
all would respond willingly.
Father O'Connell said that while
many had been killed it seemed to be
the will of God. He spoke of the

W. c. Snodgrass spoke of the San

lection was taken mp amounting tC

the relief fund being raised by the
city. Special mention was made of
the catastrophe both morning and
evening and the people responded
willingly when called upon to help.
AT Presbyterian Church.
At the evening service in the Pres
byterian church, Rev. j. II. Northrup
spoke on the topic THE San Fran
cisco Earthquake in the Light of Di-
vine Providence" The discourse was
forceful and beautiful portrayal of
Gods providence. despite the appar-
ent cruelty and injustice of the de-
struction of flourishing city. Mr..
Northrup told of Gods infinite prob
lem of the universe. People are
prone to say, when such disaster
occurs as last week overlook the city
AT the Golden Gate. that God does
not rule the universe justly and right
ly Mr.. Northrup asserted that it is
only because God has such marvel
Gus system and watches so carefully
over all that there are not more ca
lamities. In world governed only
by chance there would probably be
much more cause for sorrow in the
disasters which would be liable to
happen
Such a calamity as this, Mr.. North
rup said, cvokes a spontaneous feel
ing of sympathy and readiness to lend
aid which might never be thought
possible were there no cause to bring
it forth.

Yesterday was an eventful day in
the First Presbyterian church and the
congregations were large at both SER

The text of the anniversary sermon
in the morning was from ! Corinthi-
ans 2:9. Eye hath not seen, ear hath
not heard, neither have entered into
the hearts of men the things which
God hath brought forth for them that

ed joy at the conclusion of his first
year in this pastorate and in the min
istry because he is now through with
his schooling and is commencing the
real work of life He spoke warmly
of the cordial way in which he has

FORDYCE HAS
THEM SCARED
Dayton Young Man Has Been Too
Independent for the Boss
at All Times.

DAYTON, Apr 23.-The public
avowal of Colonel Alexander Fordyce
Jr., of this place, of his candidacy foI
state senator from Middlesex county,
has caused a small panic in the ranks
of the regular" republicans. The
republican ring has known for sever
al months that Colonel Fordyce
would make a fight for the nomina-
tion. but expected that he would
make it in a regular" way, that is.
go around and talk to the delegates
after the boss had chosen them TO
nominate somebody else. But For
dyce had learned a lesson from the
Colby campaign and decided to go
around and get delegates of his own.
So when he opened his campaign
with call for the aid of good citi-
zens against bossism he stirred things
up.
Fordyce is one of the young men
who can be seen coming. Senator
Strong saw him coming several years
ago and tried to head him off then,
but it was no go Fordyce is the son
of a Dayton farmer and poet, who
sent his son TO Princeton. From col
lege Fordyce. Jr., went to a law
school and was admitted 70 practice.
All the time he took an intense inter-
est not only in practical politics, hut
in statecraft, and in the fall of 1902
he surprised the republican party
powers by coming TO the county con
venton with a good sized bunch of
delegates pledged to his support for
the nomination for the assembly.
Though defeated for the nomina-
! ton that year he was successful the
! following year. He served two terms
in the assembly. He made good
record, the feature of which was his
/ independence of the bosses on Morris
canal abandonment and other corpo-
ration questions. The independence
/ incurred the enmity of Boss Strong
! the republican machine leader of
MiddleseX county. and Fordyce was
refused nomination for a third
term.
NO lnlrd term IN MludieSeA, Ut
dyce was bluntly informed, in spite
of the fact that in 1902 he was tC
stand aside so that John T.. Montgom
cry might have a fourth term. Blu
the delegates last year voted right,
and Fordyce did not get the nomina
| ton. A trio of safe" men were re
turned from MiddleseX.
This experience of Colby's brigh
example put Fordyce on the riGh
track. and he is now getting read!
to go out in the highways and byway:
and talk with the voters direct H,
