COPPER's RIVAL.

What Aluminium Is Doing to Fill

At these matches one of the features Is

guesser paying a stipulated sum per guess.
The person who guesses nearest the cor

part of the animal upon which he is

Usually the killing takes place in the
afternoon and the event winds up with a
dance or other forms of merrymaking in
the evening.

week the commendable as well as the re-
grettable incidents in the consummation of
certain business deals that have taken
place during the week just elapsed and the
temporal moral trend Of the affairs OF Wall
street.
Also coming an outgrowth of many
requests and believed by Mrs. Gaylord to
be an institution greatly needed in Wall
street, a bureau of consolation and advice,
as 1t has been termed will be founded this
week by DR.. Warren in Mrs. Gaylord's
Office. Dr. Warren will arrange specific
hours at which he will meet any who wish
to enlist his aid. To reporter Mrs. Gay
lord said yesterday:
You would be surprised to know OF the
number of women who come to me right
along women who have lost money through
unwise speculations and who, financially
ruined, say that they are likewise on the
verge of mental and social ruin. These
women need clergyman or some one in
terested in them near at hand to whom
they may go for consolation and personal,
not business, advice
I'm the last two weeks alone" said DIR.

lishments came to me heartbroken, one
having embezzled funds, the other having
accidentally lost money intrusted to his
care. In the first instance and in the
second l mended these mems minds and
saved them from probable suicide by en-
listing the sympathies of their employers
in their behalf. The first clerk, seized with
remorse, returned the embezzled money to
his employer and was retained In the en-
ploy of the concern. The second clerk
also retained, the money not being
even taken out of his weekly salary"

TO OPEN WITH PRAYER.
Wall Street Day VIII Begin With
Religious Service.

NEW YORK, January being an
elaboration of the plan instituted by Mrs.
]. Alden Gaylord, who opens the business
day in her brokerage offices, at No. 35 Wall
street, with prayer, arrangements have
been perfected for the Introduction Of reli-
gious services on a wide scale in the heart
of New York's money district. These plans
were announced yesterday by the Rev.
Henry Marsh Warren, chaplain of the city
hotels, who has long been working in CO.
operation with Mrs. Gaylord in an effort to
regularly introduce prayer into Wall street.
and who will formally open the business
day in the street on Wednesday morning
with brief religious services on the curb in
front of the stock exchange.
DIR. Warren has been in communication
with Messrs. j. Pierpont Morgan, James
Stilman, John D. Rockefeller, Jacob II.
Schiff, Jefferson Seligman and others in
Wall street, and hopes for Endorsement and
cooperation from many of them in the in
augurated movement. 1t is the plan of
those in charge of the financial district
services to ask each of these men to per-
sonally in his turn officiate or assist in the
services once week.
This movement has come the result OF
numerous suggestions and requests re-
ceived by Mrs. Gaylord and DR.. Warren
from prominent business men, bankers and
brokers in the Observation-Disclosures street
district. With the continued success of
Mrs. Gaylord's innovation there poured in
upon her scores of letters expressing the
wish that she devote her energies toward
an elaboration of her plan, whereby the
money district a whole might benefit.
On Wednesday, therefore, a simple reli-
g1ous ceremony will be held at 10 o'clock in
the morning as an invocation for the bust
ness of the day and week. These services
will be continued on every Wednesday. AT
subsequent services the prayer will be fol-
lowed by the singing Of hymn, led each
successive week by well-known singers in
the city at the time whose services will be
enlisted. All those whose business is in the
financial district will be asked to attend.
The services will last only a few minutes.
DR.. Warren will follow his opening prayer
with a short address pointing out zach
