PREACHER PLAIN
TALK TO ROOSEVELT

OYSTER BAY, Sept. 1.-The Ri. Rev
James S. Johnston, Episcopal Bishop OF
Western Texas, delivered a stirring adj
dress on the subject of Foreign and
Domestic Missions at the service at
tended here yesterday by President
Roosevelt and family. The bishop and
the Rev. H. Fl. Washburn, pastor OF
Christ Episcopal Church, and Mrs
Washburn accepted an invitation to
luncheon at Sycamore Hill after the
services.
In comparing what he regarded al
''the pittance of $5,O0O,000 a year,
which was all the church could collect
for mission work, Bishop Johnston put
the millions spent annually in the
United States Navy in the same column
with the $60000,000 he said was an
nually spent for chewing gum, and the
many times greater amount for tobacco
and liquor The support of the navy
however, he justified later, as making
for peace.
Bishop Johnston recently visited the
far east, and he said the American gov
eminent has a difficult problem to solve
in the Philippines. In Japan, he said
there was decidedly greater demand
for religious literature than could be
supplied. The japanese churches, be
said, were "shacks," and would not
compare with. fhe carriage houses OF
Oyster Bay. In exhorting for a liberal
collection, Bishop Johnston exclaimed
with enthusiasts: "'Grub in your
pockets for bills, not nickels.'

DIVORCED COUPLE
REMARRY IN OLD AGE.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 1.-The Jour
nal today says: John .. Roberts,
farmer, who has lately grown rich IN
the Oklahoma cotton planting district,
came to the city yesterday to see hls
children and unexpectedly met his d.
vorced wife, Mrs. Ellen Roberts, at the
home of his daughter, Margaret j. Rob
erts. 1906 Oak street. The old folks are
IS years old, respectively. There was
reconciliation, hasty marriage and the
two left for Oklahoma City last night.
Some years ago, when the Roberts
family was not SO well fixed financially,
there was a quarrel and a separation
and the aged wife returned to her girl
hood home at Braymer, 40. That was
nine years ago. After giving up all
hope of a reconciliation, Mrs. Roberts,
six years ago, asked and was granted
divorce.
In the meantime Jonn O. Roberts was
too busy in the cotton fields to think
about his broken hone. The industry
was new in Oklahoma, and he put his
heart and soul and a little my in the
planting. Crops were good and the cot
ton district began to reek with wealth.
Roberts was then an aged man but he
toiled night and day, and, after laying
by good store in his home bank, set
out for Kansas City to look up his
children He arrived yesterday.
By chance Mrs. Roberts had come
from Braymer to visit their daughter at
1906 Oak street and she confronted the
aged husband when he called. It did
not take7 long for Roberts and his
former wife to make up the old quarrel
and they sought the marriage license
clerk. The clerk recorded the age of
each at rs years.
The Rev. Barclay Meador, pastor of
the First Christian church, performed
the ceremony in his study at II o clock
in the morning ana the two had
luncheon together-once more husband
and wife. They departed last night for
the Oklahoma farm which made it pos
sibIe for them to be reunited.

HARTMAN ALWAYS
HARD TASKMASTER.

HFE H. Hartman is hard taskmas-
ter said Attorney E. Williams, rail
road attorney of Chicago.
Ellis iron will and promptness to act
were shown early in his career as rail-
road man. Mr. Williams continued.
Some twenty years ago President Os-
borne, of the Illinois Central, gave Har-
riman. then a Young man and unknown
in the railroad world, the job of dispos-
ing of some Illinois Central bonds. Har-
riman sold them advantageously and
kept climbing up He was made vice
president of the Illinois Central, and on
one occasion when the president of the
road was away, Hartman was acting
president.
1.-THE Illinois Central at that time
was practically run by it's general man
ager, Jeffries, now Gould S right-hand
man. Jeffries was all-poWerful and ran
affairs just as he wished. He was known
among his subordinates as 'the great
Jeffries, and even his superiors would
not think of questioning his acts. When
he became acting president Hartman
went to Chicago, and into the office OF
General Manager Jetfrles. He asked
permission to make his headquarters
there, and although Jeffries probably
did not like it, he could not do other
than acquiesce The presence of Harri-
man did not abash Jeffries, however,
and he continued to do as he liked. One
day when Hartman was present he
heard Jeffries debating a letter to his
stenographer, which outlined some
policy of the general managers.
" Why, Jeffries, don t you know that
is in direct opposition to resolution
passed by the directorsa" said Harri-
man.
- I can t help that, replied Jeffries.
: If the I. C. is run in the way the d.
rectors would have it run, it would go
to smash. IF they want to do that, |
they may have my resignation
Write it out, quietly remarked
Hartman. Jeffries was surprised and |
but he at once complied, and |
handed the paper to the little vice
president. Hartman took pen and |
wrote across the face of it Accepted,

eral superintendent. When that official
arrived he said, simply:
