ROGERs IS ILL.,,
BUT ATTENDS
HIS CHURCH

New Bedford. Mass, Sept. 23-"Has
there been a conference OF Standard OIL
men at the home OF H. II. Rogers yester-
day." was asked of a close friend OF Mr..
Rogers In Fair Haven.
"No, sir" came the quick response.
"The story that any such conference was
contemplated at the home OF Mr. Rogers
In Fair Haven is simply absurd. Mr..
Rogers is a sick man"
Reporters watched the house all day,
but saw no signs OF a conference.
Mr.. Rogers went to church yesterday
morning for the first time in Fair Haven
this season. He rode to the Unitarian
church, a beautiful edifce which he built,
in his electric cab. After the service he
spent a few moments conversing with In
innate friends, and then went home.
Robert Reid, the New York artist who
designed the memorial windows of the
church, and his wife dined at the. Rogers
mansion.
Mr. Rogers, accompanied by a guest,
took an auto spin about the village for
an hour in the afternoon
DR.. Rice OF New York, who has just re-
turned from a two years trip. is guest
of M. Rogers for a few days.

THE REV. MR.. MILLER
- TENDERS RESIGNATION

The Rev Franklin II. Miller OF the Cal
vary Episcopal church at Pascoag yester-
day rendered his resignation owing to his
displeasure that his parishionors had done
nothing towards the erection OF pro-
posed $4,000 rectory while he was in Eu-
rope
The rectory was to have been built ON
land near the church on Broad street and
when Mr. Miller went 10 Europe matters
were so we'll along, 1t Is said. that he was
certain that II would be completed by the
time he returned, so certain, indeed. that
hs gave up the house which he had been
living in.
Mr.. Miller and his wife returned Thurs
day night and was nightly displeased at
finding nothing had been done about
building the rectory. He engaged rooms
at the Manufacturers hotel. where he still
is. Up to yesterday Mr.. Miller had given
no warning OF his intention TO resign.
MIR. Miller is a graduate of the cam
bridge Theological school and receives
salary OF 5000 per annum. Before entering

PEACE CONFERENCE IS
BIG LAUGHING STOCK

Manifested Is in he Personality Of the De egaes. England
Regards it As aste of Time, But, Of Course, Germany
Is Pleased As She Is Successful In il.

The Hague. Sept 23.-The peace confer
ence OF late Is spoken OF commonly as
almost a laughing stock.
The only interest which now attaches
TO Its meetings is that which surrounds
the personality OF the eminent men who
make up the membership OF the body.
After having been In session over three
months, and with adjournment probably
a month I'm the distance. II Is recognized
generally, and even by the most optimis-
tic In the peace movement, that the con-
ference has been and will be. at It's cor
clusion. barren OF results that will lead
10 permanent measures OF benefit 10 the
peace of the world.
Mr.. Choate OF the American delegation,
however. Is still optimistic regarding the
result even on the great questions. ana
especially that of a permanent court OF
arbitration. being satisfied that the prin-
ciple is admitted.
He thinks that once the conference has
concluded It's session IL will be an easy
matter TO overcome the prejudices con-
corning the allotment of judges and that
thereafter the establishment of the court
will be easy task.
Other delegates however. do not share
his opinion, believing that the adoption

the governments with the task of finding
a system by which 10 elect the judges

whole affair.
WERE UNPREPARED.
Even the proposition for future meet
ing OF the conference adopted unanimous
ly on Saturday has been so altered as 10
suppress It's most important part. namely,
that OF calling for periodical meeting,
merely providing for the calling OF a third
conference with no provision for future
conferences.
The prevailing opinion, as expressed py
one of the leading delegates, Is that the
absence of results In the conference on
the great questions was due TO the lack
of preparation by all the countries rep
resented This, he said was especially
striking in the American delegation,
which was supposed to have come here IN
complete accord with the Latin-Ameri-
can countries.
This accord, however, neither existed
nor has been reached during the confer
ence. Indeed what is to be dreaded, ne
declared, Is that the chief result OF the
conference will be a growing feeling OF
diffidence on the part OF the South Am
ericans toward Washington, as, rightly
or wrongly, they accuse the United states
of having neglected them and OF caring
only for working in accord with Great
Britain and Germany.

GIRL Reared

to her parents after an absence OF IL
years
When Anna was a small child she was
placed in an institution here, but had
been there only a short time when she
mysteriously disappeared from the place.
Georgina Vassal, her sister, heard that
she had left the home and went TO the
officials OF the institution but they vol
unteered no information, and a search for
the missing girl was begun.
1t was learned that the girl had en-
dured nerve-racking experience; that
she had been sent away from the insti-
tuition, and had not left 1t, as her parents
and relatives had been led to believe. She
was sent TO family on an Indian reser-
walton near Duluth and for several years
had been brought up among the Indians.
She is now well acquainted with their
ways and language. and IL may take
years to educate the girl. The reserva-
ton is in a backwoods part OF Wiscon-
sin. and lis known as Red Cliff.
The girl never was told her parents
were seeking her. but was given TO un-
derstand that IL she attempted TO escapt.
she would be placed In the institution
again. She consequently did not leave
the reservation until last week, when.
through a friend IN the vicinity. she
learned of the search being made for her.
She slipped away by night TO Duluth with
the friend, and was there met by her
sister Georgina, who accompanied her TO
her home in Milwaukee.
