MEN IN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCHES.

strong and hopeful movement for the
organization of Presbyterian Brother
hood Last week a large number of the
men of the Presbyterian Church, North,
met in a convention in Indianapolis to
give voice and stimulus to the general
movement in the local churches for the
gathering of men in fellowship and their
organization in the brotherhood. On
recommendation of the Executive Com
mittee of Publication, the Southern
Assembly at Greenville, authorized that
committee Ito prepare a constitution,
and to take all necessary steps to the
organization of associations in the
churches of men over sixteen years of
age, to be known as the presbyterian
Brotherhood" The committee at once
set about the preparation OF a constitu-
ton and other literature, and under DIR.
Phillips and the district superintendent
of Young Peoples Work is now diligent-
ly engaged in promoting this organiza-
ton. Quite a demand for the literature
has grown up, and in many of our
churches, the Brotherhood has been set
at work. Last week about a hundred
men of the Second church Richmond,
had stirring meeting the beginning
of an active and fruitful work.
After all the organized work of the
churches in societies, of which SO large
and immensely valuable part has been
by the women, and then by boys and girls,
it has become evident that there was
wanting an organization of men in and
about the churches to bring them to-
gether, to express their Christian fell
bination and conference to their service,
to find means for the protection and
care of boys and young men not in the
church, to strengthen all the work of
the whole and to take up the advance
of the churches in destitute and mission
sections.
Without any pretension or exagger-
alton it may be said that the Presbyter-
ian Church. by its doctrine, its polity
and its worship, is especially a mascul-
inc force. While its membership and its
working forces are so largely of women,
1t is true that it has a peculiar attrac-
ton for men. The very absence Of the
aesthetic in over-much display, in decor
alton of the sanctuary, and in long litur-
gical and musical services has made it
less feminine and more masculine. It's
strong pulpit, it's emphasis on the SER
mon, its proclamations of divine truths
with authority, its candid, honest and
faithful declaration of the whole coun-
sci of God has commanded the respect
of all men. The appeal it makes to the
mind. and to the conscience, rather than

 $3OO.OOO on Hughes.

New York. Oct 26.-The nominal betting odds in Wall street were quoted on the curb yesterday at 2h to 1. but World reporter failed to find any broker willing to give great CT than 2 to 1 on Hughes.
 Despite the attempts of certain curb brokers to get notoriety out of stage money bets there is scarcely any betting in Wall street. A con- servative commission broker yester- day expressed the opinion that not over $200.000 had actually been wagered. Some small amounts have been placed at 3 to 1.
 Early yesterday morning a bet on Hughes at 2h to was made by Wrenn Bros, who bet w. c. Moore S1,250 to $500. G. B. Buchanan of the stock exchange told of bet of s2.500 that Hughes would win by 100000 plurality to s7,500. An other bet was $1 900 that Hearst will win by 100000 plurality to S17,000.
 The odds quoted at the close of business yesterday on the curb were 2 to 1. Many small bets were made at these odds. Few of over s20 were recorded. A year ago at this time over $1.000,000 had been bet in Wall street on the result of the election.
 Lawrence T. Fell. manager of the Hoffman House branch of Jacob Field & Co. announced that he was com missioned to offer. either in lump or in sums of $1.000. s100.000 against $500, ,00O that Hearst will be elected.

TO ABOLISH CUSTOM HOUSES.
Coast of Maine Has Several That Are
 Not Self.Supporting.

Eastport, Me, Oct 26.-Residents of the seacoast cities of Maine are interested in the report that a move- ment for the abolition of custom houses which are not self-supporting in many of the smaller ports of the country will be pushed at the next session of congress. There are sev- eral such establishments along the coast of this state. While at Bangor. where the receipts for the last fiscal year were larger than at any other port in Maine, 1t cost the govern ment ' X cents to collect each dollar. At Passport, where the receipts were S9O.275, the costs was 27 cents on a dollar. At Aroostook the expense was 46 cents per dollar. and at Bel fast IS cents. The discrepancy be- tween receipts and expenditures at points where custom houses are maintained, but where the business transacted Is very light, is said to be the principal consideration In the change. At Machias the cost of col lecting each dollar was $4.22. At Castine 1t was $1.95, at Wiscasset S5.37, at Frenchman's Bay $S.5S. while at York. where the receipts were but $5, 1t cost $2s.37 to collect each dollar.

REVOLUTIONARY. SAYS HENEY.
Talks About Acting Mayor Galla.
 gher's Removal of Langdon.

San Francisco. Oct 26.-"The course of Acting Mayor Gallagher and the board of supervisors in sus- pending District Attorney Langdon from office and appointing Abraham Ruef as acting district attorney in his place. followed by Ruef's re- moval of myself as assistant district attorney, is not only illegal, but is revolutionary in character" said Francis J. Heney last night. "The only purpose of Langdon's suspen- sion on trumped up charges, ridicu- lously and notoriously false, is to bring to halt the proceedings now under way in Judge Graham's court to impanel a new grand jury before which District Attorney Langdon. as- sisted by myself. propose to present evidence which, in my opinion, will justify the indictment of leading ofii- cials of the city administration and Abraham Ruef.
 .I have the evidence to prove these allegations and at the proper time and place as the law prescribes. Dis trict Attorney Langdon and myself. as his assistant. will lay it before the new grand jury. It is to prevent such exposure that this utterly illegal step has been taken"

 Story
LOOKING FOR VICTIMS

New York. Oct 26.-When Hyman Gossman, 15 year old lad, was ar raigned in the children's court yester- day on charge of picking pockets he not only admitted the charge but swore that a man had taught him to steal and sent him out at , o'clock every morning to look for victims.
 The boy said his parents were dead and that he lived at 150 Ridge street with Harry Stein and the latter's wife.
 Does Stein know that you steal?" asked Justice Zeller.
 Hes the one who put me up to it and taught me-" replied the lad.
 The youngster then went on to tell how Stein instructed him for weeks in the art of picking pockets before he sent him out. He said he had to practice for hours every day on Stein and his wife, relieving them of wallets, pocketbooks, watches and jewerly until he became so adept that he could rob them without their knowing If he did the job in clum- sy fashion Stein would beat him.
 Stein, who was in court, was placed under arrest. The detectives later searched his house and found a. quan- tity of stolen goods.

New York, Oct 26.-Madison Square Garden, full of folk, cheered William k. Hearst for sixteen min utes last night, cheered him just as vociferously as Monday nights meet ing did, and the crowd was as great.
 But as soon as Mir Hearst began to speak last night the people began to go out--for the first time in the record of any of the big Hearst meet ings. The drumming noise of their feet on the stairs began to drown the candidates voice, which began, in turn, to crack under the stairs of making him heard above the din The drumming of feet became a roar; 1t became difficult even for people near by to hear the speaker. Rapturous cheering dwindled to gusty fits and starts of applause. The speech was not heard.
 Yet there were 30,OOO persons-pa- raders and others-Outside the build- ing, many of the attending social ist meeting. The occasion was adver- tised. as a Union Labor mass meet ing to ratify the nomination of Wil- liam Randolph Heart"

FOR A NEW PARTY.
La Toilette Declares Intention
 Supporting Gov Davidson.

supporting GOv Dav1dsOn. Albion, wiss, Oct 26.-Senator La Toilette in a speech here created a sensation by declaring his intention
 to support Governor Davidson and
 he republican ticket and almost in the same breath he gave an indication of his intention of striking for new
 party as reported after his recent
 mysterious conference with Bryan,
 who is said to be allied with him in
 this step.
 "Oh. I tell you. fellow-citizens." he said, If the American people thor
 oughly understand the situation you
 could no longer impose upon them. Never. Then. rather than blindly fol
 low any party flag or any party de- claration. the people would rise up en
 masse and com pei legislation that
 would wipe out the iniquities these
 vast corporations are imposing on the
 people" Yet in spite of his declaration of his unflinching support of Governor Davidson. the junior senator did not hesitate to express the fear that the
 governor might inadvertently retard instead of advance the reform move
 ment. This is the kind of treachery feared by Governor Davidson when he hesitated about accepting La Fol lette as a speaker for him.
