In the discussion of his theme
| THE Man in the Gap" Rev. ID. ID.
FORSYTH at the Methodist church yes
terday morning took occasion to ar
raign the church people of the city
for what he terms their Indifferent
attitude toward The worthy fights for
reforms.
Don't you know" said Rev. For
syth. Il blame you people far more
than / blame the officials of the city
for the fragrant violations of the law
by the saloons. You people sit
around and depend on the ministers,
the laughing stock of the communi-
ty, to do all this reform work"
Rev. Forsyth declared that many
church men and supposed enemies
of the saloons tried to be cunning
aad play friendly to both sides Of
the contest. He declared that some
business men. when approached on
the subject of giving their support
to a reform movement, say Il would
like to, but / am afraid of hurting
my business
The minister asserted that some
business men rest on the assurance
that the church people will not boy
colt them and that by playing friend
and not openly antagonizing the sa-
looms they can get the patronage Of
that element also.
you people depend on the preach
ers doing all the reform work and
failing to give their efforts support
You wonder why these efforts fail
We do our best and are made the
laughing stock of the town"
Rev Forsyth declared chat the
church people are mighty In num-
bers, but when It comes to a reform
fight there is nearly always a break
ing of ranks, a failure to act concert
edly and the other side being al
ways well organized, wins out. He
declared that the people alone.
their Indifference, are to
blame for the presence of the sa-
looms and the domination of the sa-
looms in the city and state govern
ments. He declared that "indiffer-
ence is today the greatest danger
society"
Rev. Forsyth said that many of
the city officials are not to be
blamed for the stand they have ta-
ken: "They are simply getting their
orders from men and influence high
er up. You people should not let

Cigars For
Particular Smokers

Esthetic in the extreme was the
young man who called for GER
tain shape cigar because il looks
more dressy in fellows mouth. 3"
But he knew We had particular
smokers for customers and was
sure of finding what he wanted
here.
Most OF our customers think
more of quality than shape of ci-
gars.. Our choice brands have
educated them to an appreciation
of the fine quality. No matter
what you are in the habit of pay
ing for cigars you'll find brands
here that will surely make you
n steady customer.
We strive to make customers
rather than large profits. If your
heNt smoke is from our case
you'll understand why we have
such large cigar business.

As announced some time ago. the
postoTCes throughout the country
have been Weighing the mails since
July 1 and will continue to do so un-
til January 1 ia order for the pos
tai authorities to compile certain sta
tistics.
The week beginning October II
was set aside as week during which
the postmasters shall not only weigh
the mails but shall keep strict
count of all letters, packages and
parcels that pass through each Of
iice.
Naturally this means not a small
amount of extra work. Pos master
Price urges that all persons get
their mail in each day as early as
possible not only for the convenience
of the postal clerks but to preven.
any of the mail being delayed from
one mail train to another. Natural
ly the banking mp of lot of letters
and packages just before the time
for the departure OF n mail would in
all probability necessitate the hold
ing over OF much of this matter un-
| til the next train.

In attacking the city officials Rev.
FORSYTH stated that he wanted it un-
derstood that be was not referring
to all the city officials: that some OF
them are true men and are bent on
doing Their duty.
In referring % the police. the min
lister said: The police of the city
are not to blame. i'm "A way. for over
looking some flaErant violations OF
the law. They know that if they ar
rest these mon and close these places
they will dig their political graves
They are simply creatures of powers

Rev Forsyth declared that the
church people and the enemies Of
the saloon and the house of i'll fame
can win oul il they go TO the primar-
les and the political convictions.
our hope Is On the primary of each
political party We've got n right
TO vote. and we can, if we Will, see
that good. clean. fearless men are
nominated for Office" Then Rev
Forsyth mcrcilessly went after the
people for not taking more Interest
in the primaries and conventions.
"You are too busy to 90 to the pri-
mary, but the people on the other
side are there and they of course
fix the slate and run things His
arraignmeut of the people was ter
rife and his sarcasm was stinging.
Rev. Forsyth went after political
bosses in no uncertain terms. In
The course of his remarks 10 this
connection he said; There is a po-
Utical boss in this community who
just snaps his fingers, and things go
and they always 20 his way. too
Rev. Forsyth exclaimed Let rs
capture the machines and be the
bosses-God knows change is
needed
Rev. Forsyth dwelt upon many
other phases of the fight against the
saloon. He was heard by an audi
ence of about 500 people.
Last evening at the Congregations
al church Rev. James A. Becker took
for his theme, Paying the Price, &"
and before large congregation de-
livered one of the strongest sermons
on the saloon problem heard in the
city in a long time. Rev. Becker
holds that the people are now paying
the price of their indifference; and
he. like Rev. Forsyth, believes that
indifference Is n menacing danger
to the welfare of the citizenship and
the country.
Rev. Becker referred to the down
fall of George l.. Greer, the county
attorney who recently left the city,
II is said, with a woman of the half
world, after proving untrue to his
wife and child, after throwing away
golden opportunities to make a bright
success in the law profession and af-
ter being guilty OF most flagrant Of
fensos against society ard his do
nestle ties. The minister declared
that the downfall of Attorney Greer
is simply one OF the results of the
Indifference of the people to the dan
gers that surround them.
Rev, Becker urged the people to
wake up and demand and secure
their rights and protect their homes
and children. He dealt with many
phases of the question.
The sermon was given the closest
attention and seemed to make a
deep impression.

RESTAURANTS FORM a TRUST.
Board Goes Up SOC a Week on Ae.
count Of the Rise in Provisions.

Lawrence, Kas.-Lawrence is in
the grip of a restaurant trust
The trust has advanced board from
$3.50 per week to 81 per week, and
there is no relief by going to another
restaurant, because all the restaurants
that are worth while are in the agree
ment.
For years the price of a meal ticket
calling for Fl meals in Lawrence has
been $3.50. All the reputable restau-
rants have charged that, and the
downtown people who board are used
to paying it. Some time ago one res
taurant decided to charge separately
for it's big dinner on Sunday. The rea.
son given was that the dinner cost the
house more than the 1G 2-3 cents that
a hole in a meal ticket represented,
so it was ruled that meal tickets were
not good on Sunday dinners. = The
boarders kicked, but did not leave.
Now the separate fee for Sunday din
.ner holds, and the meal ticket, good
on all other occasions, is hiked an
even soc.
The great advances in the cost Of
provisions, meats and fruits are given
as the reason for the increase.

TO Probe Frisco Condition.

New York-Aikujiro Ishii, the d.
rector of the commercial bureau
of the Japanese foreign office, who
was involved in the anti-Japanese riots
at Vancouver, came to this country
to investigate and report on the re-
cent anti-Japanese demonstrations in
San Francisco.
While this was given out as the spe.
cific object Of his visit, 1t is generally
understood that his mission was to
make a thorough study of the whole
Japanese question in this country and
to ascertain the cause and extent of
whatever prejudice may exist against
the Japanese. He spent some time in
San Francisco, and, after travelling
through the country, went to British
Columbia, where the conditions arising
from the recent inflow of Japanese and
Hindus into the Northwest has caused
a serious disturbance of labor condi-
tons.

JAPs ATTACK Y. S. SOLDIERS.
Four Marines Have Narrow Escape
From Mob.

Toxic, Japan-While the United
States cruiser Chattanooga was at
Hakodate, on her way here from
Vladivostok, four of her men had a
thrilling experience and a narrow es-
cape from serious injury at the hands
of a Japanese mob.
In a dispute over prices one of the
American sailors struck a Japanese
shopkeeper. A mob was quickly
formed, armed with clubs and started
after the assailant and his three com
panions. Two Of the sailors were
forced to jump from the dock and
swim to a sampan. The others were
rescued by the police, who took them
aboard the ship.
investigation by the ships officers
showed that the attack upon the store
keeper by the sailor was u%nprovoked,
and the Japanese were exonerated.
The Chattanooga's visit to Yokoha-
ma has been marked by the usual ex-
change Of calls with Japanese officials.
Full shore leave has been given to the
cruisers men, and there were no un,
toward occurrences there.

Vancouver, b. C.-Following a
riot here in which Chinatown and

ing $4,000, a further demonstra-
ton occurred in which KICK
Yire Ishii, chief of the bureau of for
eign commerce and head of the jap

buro Kisamidzu, both of Seattle, we're
the central figures. A number Of per-
sons were bruised and injured by brok-
en- bottles and flying %brickbats in the
hands of a frenzied mob. Baron Jahii
and Consul Sisamidzu finally made
their escape through the mob and the
affair was Immediately cabled to To
kio.
Coincident with the riot was the ar
rival of a steamship having on board
at least 900 Japanese.
Japs Thrown into Water.
With a common impulse the moi
surged to the water front and as soon
as the Japanese came down the gang
plank they were met by the rioters.
Seven or eight of the Japanese were
unceremoniously picked up and thrown
into the Burrad inlet.
Still further rioting occurred when
a crowd of about 1000 laborers started
on the warpath, but were finally
quelled by the police after about TWEEN
ty arrests had been made.
Chinatown was roped off and the
quarters of the Orientals guarded
by the police.
Will Demand Indemnity.
Baron Ishii gave out an interview in
which he states that he had cabled to
Ambassador Kaneko at London appris-
ing him of the events here.
Indemnity from the city to the
amount of $4,000 will be claimed.
Mayor Bethme declares the indemnity
will not be paid, and the affair will be
taken up with the Dominion govern
ment.

KILLED IN HIS CELL
FIRE CHIEF SHOOTS wREckER
OF HIS HOME.
SLAYER HAD SHELTERED VICTIM
Avenging Fireman Taken at Scene OF
Tragedy Is a Raving
Maniac.

Franklin, Ohio-William H. Nil
Ter, assistant fire chief of this city,
shot and killed James H. Littler, who
is charged with having eloped with
Miller's wife, is in a cell of the city
prison. After he had slain his enemy,
Miller became a raving maniac, and
is in irons in a cell adjoining that
in which he killed Littler.
Littler was formerly Miller's friend.
The fireman gave him shelter three
months ago when, as a tramp, hungry
and Iootsore, he applied for help. He
then got Littler a position and took
him in as a boarder at his home. Some
time ago Miller was found unconscious
near his home, with his skull frac-
tured. The same day Littler disap-
peared, and suspicion pointed to him
as Miller's assailant. A warrant charg-
ing assault with intent to kill was
sworn out against him, but he was not
apprehended.
Mrs. Miller disappeared three weeks
ago, taking her youngest child. Miller
went in search Of his wife and stated
that he found her in Springfield with
Littler. He forgave the woman and
had the mar arrested on the old war
rant, and on another charging Littler
with breaking up his home.
Wednesday Littler was brought back
to Franklin for trial. The jail is in
the engine house. A loud report shook
the building and citizens found Littler
dead in his cell with the top of his
head blown off. Beside the cell stood
Miller, with a gun in his hand. He
fought like a mailman, but was placed
in irons and physicians pronounced
him hopelessly insane.

After Shooting.

Chester, Penn. A 13-months-old
child was killed in a shooting af-
fair at the home of Daniel Friel. Friel.
the uncle of the child. has been ar
rested charged with murder.
Friel claims he heard burglars in
the house and that the child was ac-
cidentally shot, but the police believe
the child was killed during a quarrel.
Miss Margaret McKenna of Colo
