ADMINISTRATION
OF IRISH AFFAIRS
BECOMES MORE NERVOUS

London. Dec. 3O.--There is no dis
pute as to the gravity OF the sttua-
ton In Ireland regarded from any
viewpoint. Irrespective of party the
London newspapers concede that
week by week the responsibility OF
administering Irish affairs becomes
more onerous. After two years OF
power for Sir Henry Campbell Ban
neman and the Liberal party. the
Liberal press comedies that the pro-
gress of large area of the island
and that the cattle trade is being
destroyed. The Tory and the Lib
eral Unionist journals go further.
They say that the authority of the
crown is undermined to degree not
equalled before in twenty years.

late Stephen r. Mallory, will easily
and far away become the baby" of
the senate. He will be less than
three months past 81 when he takes

youngest man who has occupied a
seat in the senate for more than
century.
Henry Clay of Kentucky, held all
records. He became a senator De-
cember 20, 1906, being then but 20
years 10 months and II days old.
He was a month and % days below
the constitutional requirement that

the congressional reports fail to
show that any objection was made to
his taking his seat.

WOMAN WANTS
RUNYAN REWARD
MRS. CARTER, WHO CONCEALED
DEFAUITING TELLER, SUES
TRUST COMPANY-A COUNTER
SUIT FILED.

New York. Dec. 30.-Laura NJ.
Carter. in whose apartment Chester
ID. Runyan, teller OF the Windsor
Trust Company. concealed himself
after making away with $4,000 of
the trust company's funds. has fled
suit against the trust company for
$3.50, which she claims is due her
as a reward for delivering up the
defaulting teller.
Against this action the trust COM
pany has brought suit to recover
$4,000 from her. alleging that she
and Runyan were in conspiracy to
rob the institution and that this $25-
900 was lavished upon her by Run
yam.
Runyan defaulted with $4,000
from the Windsor Trust company
one afternoon last summer by throw
ing the cash packages in a dress suit
case. He then went to the fat of
Mrs. Carter. She later informed the
police and Runyan was arrested. Mrs.
Carter was also arrested but was ac-
quilted. Runyan pleaded guilty and
was sentenced to seven years in Sing
Sing.

SPECIAL MEETING
Oh SHAREHOLDERS

Montreal. Dec. 3O.-A special
meeting OF Canadian Pacific share
holders was held here today TO au-
thorize an issue of $2S.32O. 900 ad-
ditional stock. which will be offered
to the stockholders at par. The au-
thorization OF the sale OF this stock
at the present time is In keeping
with the policy OF the road In pro-
viding for its requirements ahead
and at the same time TO give each
year TO It's stockholders the right to
subscribe new stock upon terms
which offered the equivalent OF an
extra dividend.
II is believed that the proceeds OF
the new issue will be used for build
ing line into Seattle. where the
road will come into direct competi-
ton with the Hill system. The con-
struction of the new line has been
deferred on account Of the practical
impossibility of raising money for
improvements. either in New York
or London. The Canadian Pacific al
ready controls the Spokane Interna-
tional. giving it entrance into Spo-
kane. and the construction of a road
to Seattle would make 1t a direct
competitor of the Hill roads in the
Northwest portion OF the United
States.
The $2S.32O,OO0 common stock
authorized is part OF the 100000
900 new stock that was voted last
March, and which amount brought
the authorized capital of the Ca
madam Pacific up to $3.50, 900, 900.

every reason to expect good
weather this spring, and we have
a larger stock than we ever had.
but we are disappointed along
with the rest of the people.
Our motto is not to carry over
any stock from one season to
the other, and as our stock is
large we had to make reductions
to move our large stock of white

EARLY 0HiO MEll lIs
No Part Of lhe United States Found q
More Fruitful Field


Few romances. says the Youth Com.
pan;on, can equal that Of early Ohio
Methodism. No part Of the Uuited States
found more fruitful field or yielded a
greater harvest.
In 1915 john Stewart, free nlulatto
living in Marietta, addicted to dfunken-
ness and on the way to the river to
drown himself, heard the voice Of cir.
emit rider, stopped at the church door to
listen and went home with awakened
conscience. He soon volunteered to 60
among the Indian tribe and tell his story.
Wandering northward he came to a
Wyandotte village on the Sandusky
river. He could read and sing and he
soon hdd the whole tribe under his in
fuence He died at the age Of 81,
mourned honored, the first American
missionary of the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
One of Stewards converts was Between
the Logs, Wyandotte Chief He was
born at Lower Sandusky, now Fremont,
o., took the American side of the war
of 1911 and accompanied Harrison in his
invision Of Canada.
Bishop McCabe's uncle, DR.. L. d. Nc
Cabe, a notable Ohio Methodist, was
named after that famous circuit rider,
Lorenzo Dow. Dow was celebrated for
his eccentricities of dress and speech as
we'll as for his zeal. He wore no buttons
on his coat, but tied the garment around
the waist with rope. He would make
appointments to preach months in ad-
vance, and SO implicit wss the faith in
his promises that on the appointed days
great crowds would gather for miles
around. One instance is recorded where
Dow preached thus punctually to the
minute on an appointment made five
years previous.
OF Peter Cartwright, an Ohio "son of
thunder" licensed to preach at the age
of II, it is said that his circuits were like
lines in battle. One quarterly meeting
was held in the woods. A mob led by
two champions with loaded whips invaded
it. Cartwright seized one after the other
of the principal rioters and threw them
down and, aided by friends, secured 80
persons, whom he marched off to an
empty tent, had them guarded over night
and brought all to justice. His sermon
that day was from the text ''The gates of
hell shall not prevail"
Cartwright during his 65 years of
preaching received 1900 members into
the church.
The camp meeting originated and at
tanned its highest development in Ohio.
Under Bishop McKindree such was tile
eagerness of the people to attend that the
roads were literally crowded with those
pressing their way to the groves. Entire
neighborhoods were forsaken for season
by the inhabitants. A bishops salary at
that time was from $40 to $50 year and
travelling expenses. From this pittance
he had to buy his clothes and provide for
his family.
