USE PARKS FOR
CAUSE OF CHRIST
This the Stand Taken by DR..
Wyatt Following Commits
SiOn'S Action
PARK BOARD IS CRITICIZED

Since the Park Commission on wednes-
day refused to allow the parks under tho
control OF the Board to be used hereafter
for religious meetings much unfavor-
able comment on the action has eminated
from certain circles. The action OF the
Commission was prompted by the temper
ance meeting held in Rockford Park last
Sunday which is said to have resolved il
self into a political gathering. This con-
tention, however. is denied by the pastors
who conducted the rally, the Rev f. f..
Carpenter to-day declaring that the meet
ing was nothing more than the ordinary
temperance rally at which the temperance
question was presented from moral, relig-
ious, business and civic points Of view.
Mr.. Carpenter declared further that no
deception as to the object Of the meeting
was pracuiced on anybody.
Dr.. Wyatt Speaks Out.
DR.. c. T. Wyatt, pastor OF Harrison
Street Church. who has been conducting
meetings in Eighth street Park every
Sunday evening by permission Of City
Council which controls the park, all
though not a speaker at the Rockford
Park rally on last Sunday. feels that the
refusal 10 allow the parks under the con-
troll Of the Park Commission to be used
for religious purposes, As a question which
concerns the people who contribute TO the
support of the parks.
Discussing the subject today, DR..
Wyatt said;
Il would not be willing to hold SER
vice at the park if other Christian
bodies could not have the same privi-
lege. If they so desired.
"While we look to the state for en-
couragement and protection, yet we
do not believe in the union of State
and church, or in any movement look
ing in that direction.
"But l can see no just ground for
refusing permission TO ministers who
may wish to use the parks for half
hour on Sunday evenings during the
summer months. so long as the SER
vices are conducted in a dignified man
ner. The concourse that gathers in
Eighth Street Park for service proves
that the people enjoy gospel songs and
a warm gospel talk.
"The City Council has taken a sane
and sensible view of the case and
showed their desire TO conserve the
moral forces of the city by giving US
permission to hold services IN the park
every Sabbath evening this summer
We appreciate what they have done
and will endeavor to make the SER
vice pleasant and profitable"

Bowie and her son, on trial for killing
Hubert Posey. Hugh Posey, father of
the dead man, was I'm a malignant humor
to-day and his friends and sympathizers
freely predict that something is going

Posey openly charged States Attorney
Wilmer with not trying in good faith to

CROWDS SHUDDER
AT MANS PERIL
Two Forms Of Death Face
Lineman as lie Hangs
From Wire
BOLT OE HORSES MIGHT
HAVE PROVED Fatal.

Suspended from guide wire fifteen
feet above the street. and threatened
every second by death either by cleo
trocution or by the fall to the street
below, was the thrilling experience of
Charles Werkheiser, a iineman in the
employ of the Wilmington City Rail-
way Company, which made pedestri-
ans at Tenth and Market streets, shud-
der this morning.
Werkheiser Is assistant to Charles
Hallman. chief lineman of the COM
pany. About 10 o'clock the northbound
feed wire of the railway company at
Tenth and Market streets broke, ne
cessitating the presence Of the linemen
at the corner. The men had raised
their elevated wagon and were splicing
the wire when the big iron gray horses
attached to the wago/ became fright
ened at the steam roller working in
East Tenth street The animals bolted.
Werkheiser, with great presence Of
mind. grabbed guide wire instead Of
the heavily charged feed wire TO pre-
vent himself from being thrown to the
ground, but Hallman held to the
wagon. which in a second was from
beneath Werkheiser. Hallman climbed
down the ladder. along the side of the
wagon to the seat and caught the
reins as the horses were going at
lbrealneck speed down Market street.
Hallman. who is an experienced horse
man, had the animals under control by
the time they reached Ninth street,
and then drove back without lowering
the elevated portion of the wagon, TO
rescue his imperiled fellow workman.
Meanwhile a south-bound Delaware
avenue car had furnished Werkheiser
an escape. He released his hold on the
wire and climbed down the side Of the
car to safety just as Hallman ap-
lpeared.
Werkheiser escaped injury, but Hall
man suffered a lacerauon of the left
ear by coming in contact with a wire
before he could get from the top Of the
wagon to the drivers seat. The two
men later spliced the broken feed wire
while crowd looked on in admiring
lamazement Of their bravery.
