TAKES A REFORM ASPECT
SITUATION I'M TENNESSEE
Liquor and Racing Interests at the
Present Time Seem to Be Doomed
Governor Patterson is not an Ex-
treme Radicaiist.
IPubIishers' Press. ]

Memphis, Tenn, Jan. 5.-Liquor and
racing interests seem doomed to
troublesome times with the next Ten
nessee legislature.
The assembly is absolutely controll-
ed by the anti-saloon element and the
feeling against the racing men is
as strong as against the liquor deal
ers. Many of the lawmakers-eicct
have declared in facor of the most
stringent legislation against bora sa-
looms and race tracks.
Governor Patterson, who will be in
augurated January 10, is said to ques-
tion the wisdom of extreme radicalism
in reform, but has pledged himself to
sign any track legislation the assem-
bly, may pass.
The liquor interests are seeking
compromise, excluding Memphis,
Chattanooga and Nashville from in
clusion in the expected prohibition

The Rev. Mr.. Traum Takes an
Emphatic Stand for the 7.
M. c. A. Project.
TELLS OF ADVANTAGES
NEW MINISTER AT CHRISTIAN
CHURCH SAYS 100000 is SMALL
AMOUNT WHEN The GOOD DONE
is MEASURED.

Tse Rev S. w. Traum, the new pas
tor of the Christian church began his
work in Richmond yesterday most au-
spiciously, he preaching to large con-
gregations at bot-l the morning and
evening services t last nights
meeting five add tior.s were made to
the church by 1etters of commenda-
ton.
Rev Traum's sermons were both ell
oquent and convincing and held the
closest attention of the audiences
throughout.
In his. sermon last night, the new
minister took decided stand for the
Y. NJ. G. A., for which the people of
the city are now working.
He said in part:
Il am glad that on my entrance into
Richmond | find that the people are
beginning to take hearty interest in
the welfare of the boys and young men,
and by the grace and power of all that
is right, they are going to save the
boys, by establishing plant that will
be most effective in the work. In this
country of ours we have thousands of
projections for the girls, but none for
the DOyS, save the !. W. W. "a, Dut thio
one organization is doing work
among the younger men which no 9TH
er organization can do. | place my
stamp of approval upon it most en-
phatically. Statistics show that only
twenty-five young men out of every
one hundred attend regular church SER
vices. OF this number fifteen only
attend now and then. OF the remain
der only two can be relied upon to do
Christ's work and each and every time
they are hidden. What is to be done
with the boys outside the church, and
how are we to reach them? This is
the question the Y. M. C. A. is an
werinG.
II understand that the large amount |
Of 500. 600 Is being raised: 1t is large,
but in case I should have one boy, I
would rather pay the entire amount ten
times over than have that boy lost. If
we fathers and mothers are so solicit
Gus over our own boys welfare
shouldn't we be, over the welfare of
other peoples boys and those boys
who have no fathers and mothers? I
count the investment a good one and
hope that the present movement is
crowned by the greatest success.

1t is unofficiallly reported that the

is considering plans for establishing

be made about the middle of the

1t is said that the step is taken in

When talking of the matter one OF
the carriers of the local office said:

Fifteen years ago, Anna Gould, a
mere schoolgirl, raved over Harry
Woodruff, called the Handsome ac-
tor He was then in his prime and
Jay Gould was alive. Woodruff was
frequently the honored guest of the
Goulds.
Society gossiped madly. 1t was
plain that Anna Gould was terribly
'smitten.' There were rumorS of
an engagement.
Then it was that the members of the
Gould family, who may since have had
time to regret their action, interfered.
Anna Gould was not to be turned
from her course 1t was said that
Woodruff, believing Anna didn't know
her own mind, had no intention of
marrying her, but he enjoyed the lit
tie romance.
The Gould family did not propose 10
have the matter go on. Inspector
Byrnes, of the detective bureau, was
requested to warn Woodruff to keep
away from the Gould mansion. He
called the actor to his office. Wood
ruff was justly indignant. He de-
clared that an outrage had been per-
petrated, that his actions were hon.
orable, and that he would defy the po-
lice to interfere with him until he had
violated some law.
Soon after this Boni de Castellane
came to New York in search of an
heiress bride. The Gould family
were glad enough to interest Anna in
the count. They did not count the
cost.
Harry Woodruff has remained un-
married. He is still handsome,

some advance positions on the subject.
His general idea was that the average

in his makeup and life. He worked
out in detail what his observation had
taught of the average mans views on

and the Interpretation of the Bible. al

Following the talk of DIR. Cox a gen.

agreement being that the modern
Christian world is characterized by
greater freedom in it's view of religious
decline of loyalty to Christ and the real
vital principles of religion.
The meeting was very largely at

and non-members. The Union will
