" FOR BENJAMIN FAY MILLS
On Fellowship Platform at Blanchard
Hall Assistant Minister Takes
for His Topic docs
God Suffer?"

In the absence of the permanent min
lister, Benjamin Fay Mills. yesterday the
Fellowship platform at Blanchard hall
was occupied by Reynold e. Blight, who
spoke on the subject Does God Suffer-
After graphically portraying the suffer-
ing in the world, he said:
Before, lifes mystery of suffering we
sit us down and ask the momentous
question Is 1t worth while?' Thousands
answer the question by suicide. Others
answer it by a, dull and stupid resigna-
tion to the inevitable, hoping by so do
ing to stop the ache of consciousness
Others throw themselves into sensual
excesses with the lope that by SO doing
they will quaff the lethe. that shall
quench memory and drown all sorrow.
"But we are rational creatures We
cannot take these cowardly means of
escaping from life's problem. Let us
face 1t like men. Can we discern in this
suffering and pain a reason, plan, a
desirable consummation? Can we see in
telligence and justice working through
all this striving, agonizing world? Can
we go further and see love expressing
itself in lifes sorrow and failure?
"And so ] come to my subject Does
God Suffer-; because I believe on the
answer to that question hangs the whole
problem. lelieve God does suffer. I
do not think there is cry of pain any
where throughout the throbbling uni
verse but God hears. I do not think
there is CULVER of pain that he does not
feel. do not think there is a tear that
he does not gild with his presence.
do not think there is pulsation of ag-
ony anywhere by the meanest Of his
creatures, that he does not share.

KENTUCKLANS
REMINISCENT
HENDERSON PEOPLE HOLD A
REUNION
TELL STORIES OF THE GOOD
OLD DAYS
Former Residents Of City on the Ohio
Gather at Beautiful Emory
Moore Ranch in
Whittier

More than score of one-time resi-
dents OF Henderson. KY. gathered at the
home of Arthur 7. Emory, on the beau
tiful Emory Moore ranch, Painter avenue,
Whittier, yesterday to participate in a
reunion.
The occasion was more like a family
gathering than a reunion of friends.
Some of those present have not lived in
Henderson for twenty years, but most
all of them have been back home at
some time during the period that has
elapsed since they strayed from the Old
Kentucky home"
Those who have recently been in Hen
derson were importured to tell all the
recent news of the town.
George Atkinson of Whittier and Alex
ander b. Barrett of Hollywood entered
into heated discussion about the proper
time to introduce the mint, one holding 1t
should precede the ice, the other denying
it, To settle a profitless controversy 1t
was decided to try 1t both ways. The, re-
suit was eminently satisfactory, but the
question is still in abeyance for future
experiments.
An old time Kentucky dinner was
served on the spacious lawn and there was
almost enough of chicken, fried in the
ancient down south way, to satisfy even
hungry hunter.
Later in the afternoon the shadows and
the trout grew longer, and the bags of
birds were of enormous size. Letters or
regret were read, those from friends In
Henderson eliciting much applause.
Many kind things were said about the
old home town and 1t was voted, next to
California, the finest place on earth.
Among these present were: Mr.. and
Mrs. George NJ Atkinson, Miss Kate At
linson, Alexander B. Barrett, Mrs. Alex
arder b. Barrett, formerly Miss Bessie
McJohnston of Owensboro; j. E. Ware,
Mrs ]. E. Ware, formerly Miss Lulu

HISTORIC RUSH OF
CLASSESLS GONE
BERKELEY FRESHMEN ORGANIZE
uNMoLEsTED
Push Ball Takes Place Of Annual
Affair HaIowed in Memory
of Students for
Years

BERKELEY, Sept. S.-The last week
has seen the death of one of the oldest
traditions of the University of California.
For the first time in the history Of the
university the entering class has regis
tered and formed its class organization
without the event of rush.
Four years ago the Charter Hill rush.
which took place annually on the even
ing of March %, was done away with, and
In memory of 1t the classes of 1907 and
1908 combined to build the immense ce-
ment G, which lies on hill in back of
the university Since that time there
have been no rushes at Berkeley except
upon the OCCASION of the organization of
the freshman class in Harmon gymna-
sium.
At that time it has been customary for
the sophomores to break up the meeting
If possible. This year without faculty
Intervention the class of 1870 upon the
advice of the senior class of the univer-
sity. offered no opposition to the organi-
zation of the freshman class. and no dis
turbance of any kind has occurred
In place Of the rush a push ball game
between the freshman and sophomore
classes has been substituted. This has
now become an annual affair that is
watched with a great deal of interest by
all the undergraduates and many alumni
of the university. 1t took place last Sat
urday on California field in the presence
of an immense crowd. The field on which
the game was played is seventy-five
yards square. Each side has goal
toward which it works. The ball itself
is six feet in diameter when inflated with
air.
There are $50 men chosen to represent
each class, and the object is for one side
to push the ball from the center of the
field over its goal. The game this year
resulted In a victory for the sophomore
class by score of to 0. The freshmen
worked hard, but owing to lack of
team work they were unable to score.
DIR. Taylor, the head coach of the foot
ball team, served as referee for the game,
and four juniors and four seniors from
the varsity football squad acted as his
assistants. Owing to the watchfulnesss of
these men no injuries of any kind oc-
Cured and no roughness was INDUCED in.
The underclassmen expressed themselves
as well satisfied that the rush was a
thing of the past, and the push ball game
seems to have become an institution of
the university.

WILLIAM HORACE DAY
BACK FROM VACATION
Occupies Pulpit at First congrega-
tionaI Church, Taking for His
Subject "Thy viii Be
Done"

At the First Congregational church yes
terday morning William Horace Day oc-
cupied the pulpit after months vacation
in the high Sierras. He gave by request
the sermon recently given before the
Christian Endeavor convention, taking for
the text Mat. 26:42, THY Will Be Done. "
He said in part:
"Discipleship is not a private car and
free pass to heaven; it is a vigorous life
trying to realize the prayer thy will be
done in doing what God wants done. AS
we come back from vacations and rest
we as church need to make this prayer
our own. Shall speak of the work of
God, or what he wants done; the way OF
God or how he wants 1t done; and the call
of God or his summons to the will.
Never was task of the Christians more
varied or more accessible, never did dis
ciples confront so imperative and yet so
stimulating a task. Glorious if we at
tempt it, terrible If we shirk our chance.
"To an ancient disciple came the voice,
Go into the city and it shall be told thee
what thou must do Many a modern man
must go into the heart of the city for his
part in Gods work. A million emigrants

not merely peril; 1t is no less an arena
for Gods work, and we are privileged to
have a hand in the doing.

MCRde Gets Into the Game.

Editor Dan McRae was in this city
last Friday, and informed the writer
that he had been consulting some of
his political advisers and had decided
to announce at this time that he
would be candidate for nomination
for register of deeds on the Repub-
lican ticket at the primaries next
year. Mr.. McRae has been nomi-
mated by his newspaper associates
for anything he wants, and will
pretty nearly have their solid sup
port. This is no imputation against
the present incumbent, Otto Goethe,
who is serving his third term, and
has been an exceedingly popular
official. Mr.. McRae had consider
able business experience before be-
ginning his newspaper career, and
is popular in all of the south side
towns, which will make him strong
candidate.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A. f. FEDDERLY.
Died Last Saturday at His Home North
west of This City.

Albert E. Fedderly died quite sud-
denly last Saturday afternoon, about
l o. clock, at his home in Delhi town
ship, about four miles northwest of
this city. He had been in poor
health much of the time since re-
moving to this state from Wiscon-
sin, three years ago, but had kept
up almost to the last, though unable
to do much severe labor during the
past summer. His trouble seemed
to be asthmatic, but his physician is
of the opinion that this was only a
phase of organic heart trouble,
which was the ultimate cause Of his
death. Friday night Mr.. Fedderly
slept rather better than usual, but
towards noon he was taken with a
sudden attack which caused him to
fall from the chair in which he was
sitting to the floor, and from this
attack he never rallied.
Mr.. Fedderly was born in Dane
county, Wisconsin, IS years ago.
twenty-five years ago he was united
in marriage to Miss Hattie Parsneau,
who, with two grown sons and a
twelve-year old daughter, survive
him. After his marriage Mr.. Fed
derby lived on farm near Column
bus, Wis, and only few years
before coming to Minnesota sold his
farm and managed dray line in
Columbus. In the spring Of 1904
he moved onto a farm in Delhi
township which has ever since been
his home, and where he has won the
respect and good will of his neigh
bors and of all who have made his
acquaintance. He was a man of
kindly traits and honest principles.
The funeral was held from his
late home yesterday, Rev. Dubois
conducting the service. and his
brother knights of the K. of P. or
der following his remains to the
Redwood cemetery.

GOLDEN WEDDING.
Fiftieth Anniversary of Marriage of Mr..
and Mrs. S. S. Goodrich.

Crystal Lodge, D. of R., celebrat-
ed the golden wedding anniversary
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen S. Good
rich at their lodge rooms last even
ing, and made it an enjoyable occa-
sion for the large number of their
lodge friends who were able to be
present. The affair was at first
planned to be surprise, but the
diffiulty of keeping all the details
secret made it advisable to allow the
worthy couple to enjoy the anticipa-
ton of the friendly celebration in
their honor.
The program for the evening in
Guided musical numbers, an original
poem for the occasion by Mrs. Van
Dolah, and in connection with the
banquet, number of toasts and
responses in honor of the event cele-
brated.
The wedding was particularly note
worthy as having been the first
marriage ceremony celebrated at
Rochester, in this state, and the adj
ditional fact. that all of their mar
ried life has been passed within the
confines of the territory and state
of Minnesota. Simeon S. Goodrich
and Chloe Taylor Salisbury were
united in marriage at Rochester, as
previously stated, November 18th,
1857. Mr.. Goodrich at that time
lived on farm at Otisco, near Ro-
chester, and with his young wife
continued to reside there until his
enlistment in the 10th Minnesota, in
1862, when Mrs. Goodrich removed
to Waseca and remained during her
husbands absence at the front. Mr..
Goodrich saw plenty of the horrors
Of war during his enlistment term
of three long years, and though he
came home apparently sound in spite
of hard service, the bursting of a
shell in one of the many battles in
which his regiment had part re-
suited in the total loss of his sight a
fewsyears ago.
After the war Mr.. and Mrs. Good
rich removed to Redwood Falls in
the period of its infancy, in 1867,
and for many years afterwards lived
on the farm west of this city after
wards purchased by Geo. Crooks
and now owned by Mr.. Anderson,
where they reared a family, six
daughters and one son having grown
to years of maturity.
Mr.. Goodrich is charter men,
Der of the lodge of Odd Fellows in
this city, and Mrs. Goodrich has
been valued member Of the auxil-
liary order of D. of R. for many
years. It was peculiarly fitting that
these orders should unite in doing
them honor.

Works Over Three Days, Returns
Nine Indictments, With
Two to Come.
Morgan WIIage0Wins Damage Suit,
Judge Evans Sustained in
Appeal Case.

District court opened Wednesday
morning, Immediately after the ar
rival of the train from the south,
and no time was lost by Judge Olsen
in impanneling and charging the
grand jury before the dinner hour.
The charge was mainly explanatory
of the statutory provisions, and at
the close Chas. Ripley of Charles
town was appointed foreman and a
recess taken for dinner.
The grand jury put in the longest
term it has been called upon to en-
dure for number of years at least
from Wednesday to Friday morn
ing, inclusive. That they were not
idle is evidenced by the return of
nine indictments up to last Monday,
with two more to be due yesterday,
held up on account of Sheriff Schuel-
Ter being absent after VIM. Conrad,
prosecuting witness in the LANDER
ton cases for selling intoxicants to
habitual drunkards.
The indictments returned were:
Geo. Dubois, two counts for grand
larceny in second degree and two
for forgery, all of them in connec-
ton with the accused mans agency
for the Queal Lumber Co. at Wanda;
Fred Briske, for abduction of girl
under Is; Henry Burger, for assault
on C. B. Huske; Jos. Nestaval and
VIM. Mielke of Seaforth, each for
selling liquor to habitual drunkard;
and John Drees of Wanda, for using
false weights for the purpose of de-
frauding.
The only criminal case brought up
for trial so far is that of Henry Bur-
ger for assault on Manager Huske of
the Gilfllan farm. The jury was
impaneled in this case Monday night,
and the trial was on yesterday.
Of the civil cases tried by the jury
thus far, the first was the suit of
Theo. Halvorson VS.. Fred. N. Slower,
for wages claimed to be due, which
resulted in a verdict for the hired
man. Slower contended that the lat
ter broke his contract anG left him
in the lurch. Tom Davis of Mar
shall for the plaintiff, Owens for de-

The case Of Lora E. Kempton VS..

ly two days, and predictions were
made that the plaintiff would get
