Crime Wave in New York.

sweeping over the five boroughs of
New York City. The record since
May proves that no girl is too young,
no woman too old to be the victim
Of the brutes that infest New York
Most of the victims are children rang
ing in age from five to twelve years
old.
A mite Of girl, four years old,
was the object of one attempt. In
brutal attack by two men woman
of sixty was the victim. In some
cases the young girl or child died
from the injuries inflicted.
Many of the assailants escaped the
, clutches of the law. Others were
captured and dealt with In the Magis-
trates Courts, or held for higher
tribunal Public feeling against this
class of crimes has been reflected in
several instances in mob attacks on
men caught in the commission Of
them, or only accused.
So far, more than forty-fve vic
TINS have been added to the list Of
assaults.
Bishop Potter Assails Churches.
The church was severely criticised
for indifference to the mental, ply
steal and social needs of the masses
by Bishop Henry C. Potter, of New
York, in an address delivered at the
Chautauqua Assembly, N. Y.
"What is the relation of the
Church of God to the social unrest
Of the country?" he asked. "There
is no more righteous arraignment or
the Church Of our time than its in
difference to the social conditions OF
the classes made up of less favored
men and women down in the gutter.
"The task of the Church is to
translate the mind of Christ, first,
by sympathy, then by painstaking
curiosity. This sympathetic curios-
ity would lead men in the Church
to know something of that strata Of
life below that in which we are wont
to move. Such sympathetic curiosity
will sooner or later lead to the only
hope fer the social unrest of our
time, and that is personal service.
1.-THE trend of our generation to
mechanical devices and the elimina-
tion of the personality Of the work
man, however clever and valuable in
its material results, is a trend to be
afraid Of. The modern tendency to
institutionalism is destroying the
habit and instinct Of personal SER
vice. 1t is only by personal service
that we can lift the man in the gut
ter.
"What is the relation of the
Church Of God to these facts9 First
Of all, it should be a profoundly sym
pathetic relation. In our ecclesias-
tical relations we have been intimi-
dated from translating our relation
to the world into human sympathy,
for fear of dropping into what is
called the institutional church.

A study of the commerce of dissi-
patton of Chicago, its paralyzing of
government and the ruin and disas-
ter it has brought upon city civili-
cation is contributed to the April
McClure's by George Kibbe Turner.
Tremendous forces, which are work.
ing to destroy our social organiza-
ton in every great city of the coun-
try, are shown exactly as they are,
and the grim, bare, menacing facts
of their operation are stated with
candor and conservatism. The facts
constitute of themselves one of the
most startling arrangements of
American life ever brought into
public notice. Mr.. Turner will be
remembered as the author of Gal
weston: A Business Corporation, Z"
published last October in McClure's.
The article aroused widespread in
terest and caused discussion in civic
organizations in many cities. Since
then several cities in the Southwest
and West have adopted the Calves
ton system of government.

TOMORROW
The Day for the World to
Be Destroyed.

Some Of the smart alecs" have
predicted that this world is to be
destroyed tomorrow by being set on
fire by the new comets tail. If you
are inclined to be uneasy and feel
that you are unprepared for the
end. read the oath chapter of MAT
thew, particularly the Seth verse;
But of that day and hour knoweth
no man, no, not the angels Of heav-
en-, but my Father only"
The astronomers and scientists Of
today are pretty smart fellows, but
when they arrange for a date"
they may be accused of imagining
themselves a little wiser than the
Master and the angels Of heaven.

world will be moving on Monday

P. Dewey, who was raised at Central
City, has bought the Boston National
League Baseball Co., and has con-
tracted to play an exhibition game at
his old home town on the return of
his team from its southern training
trip. This is an opportunity to see
professional baseball that has not
been enjoyed by the people of this
section of the state heretofore. New
err before has one of the big teams
played in any of our small towns.
This will be the same kind of a game
that you would see in Louisville or
New York. Central City will also
be represented by professional play
ers of the very best, and the oppos-
ing teams will both be very strong.
The Central City Athletic and Fair
Association has fenced a very COM
modious park and built a regular
grand stand that will seat thou
sand people. There will be round
trip rates of one and one-third fare

Roads Rough.

Farmers say that the country
roads are now awfully rough. Three
weeks of,perfectly dry weather and
high winds at times have dried out
the roads, and we hear of some
complaint about high land being al
most too dry for blowing To please
all people in weather is something
the weather clerk never has and
never will be able TOT do, and the
world has never learned to take it
as it comes without complaining.

HOG CHOLERA
The Hog worm is the most
Dangerous foe Of the Hog

In almost every outbreak of chol-
era you will find the hogs very
wormy. They get hog out of con-
dition and unthrifty. Then he is
an easy prey to disease. The Snoddy
Remedy will destroy every character
of hog worm. Even the liver and
lung worm, which are the most
dangerous, are easily destroyed with
the Snoddy Remedy. Ten cents
worth of the Snoddy Remedy will
clear out the worms and purify the
blood of a hundred pound shoat, so
that he will be worth one dollar or
more in few weeks than he would
have gained without this remedy.
Can't you afford to invest ten
cents per head to make your shoats
worth dollar per head more than
they will without this little invest
ment? Then why waste time and feed
on wormy runty hogs when it is easy
to have them thrifty? 1t also pre-
vents and cures Hog Cholera. Any
practical farmer can stop the worst
outbreak of cholera that ever came
with it and restore his herd to thrift
in few days time.

MOSCOW, Idaho, May 15.-The de-
fense in the north Idaho land fraud
cases this morning filed wit Judge
DIETRICH a motion idsqualifying United
States Marshal r. Rounds and his
deputies and asking that an elisor
be appointed. The disqualification is
based upon an alleged interview with
Marshal Rounds published in the

in which it is said the marshal stated
many things untrue and prejudicial
to the defendants.
The defense served notice upon the
prosecution this morning that they
were not ready to proceed 10 trial at
this term of court, and will ask for
a continuance and resist any attempt
to force them to proceed at this time.
The morning session was devoted
to arguments on the motion for bill
of particulars and a demurrer to the
indictments.

passed by the state, frankly confess
sed that ne was prejudiced against

Senator Borah for the state drew
from wingate the positive statement
that he would absolutely refuse to ac-

exception.
Half an hour later another tales

RUFF, FRISCO LOOTER, SAYS "GULTY'

1t is guess, and there is some tall
guessing. Some of the secret service
men are known and are working
the open; others are unknown ex-
cept to officials, and are doing their
work on the quiet. Especial watch is
being kept on the trial jurors, as is
usually the case in any term of court;
just the same as down at Boise. The
government knows the trial Jurors,
their friends and enemies, and per-
haps a little more of few things
that perhaps the men themselves do
not surmise SO when the selection
of the jury begins little time will be
lost in wedding out those who. in the
judgment of the government, are not
qualified to serve.
