Methodist Church Case Prob
ably Set For Wednesday
or Friday
MISSION WORKER DEFENDANT
w. F. Jordan, Discharged Member
of the Soldiers Home, Who Was
Tried by Jury of churchmen and
Found Guilty Of Serious Charges, to
Be Given Hearing on Appeal.

The church trial Of w. r. Jordan,
former member Of the soldiers home,
and a member Of the Methodist church
Of this city, which was heard in this
city late in February. is to be re-
heard. On an appeal to Presiding Ell
der w. T. Pitner, of the Marshalltown
district, next week. DR.. Pitner said
this morning that the day had not yet
been fixed, but it would probably be
either Wednesday or Friday.
Jordan was placed on trial before
a jury of seven church members on
February 26 on a charge Of immoral
conduct, embodying SANDER. lying, per-
jury and Misrepresentation. These
charges were filed against him by
Daniel B. Ferguson, a member OF the
home and church from Ida Grove. 1t
was alleged and shown that the.
charges were the outcome of state
ments Jordan is purported to have
made regarding ]. B. Hilliar. of Swale-
dale, who is now dead. Jordan is al
legged to have said that he saw Hilliar
drinking in saloons down town and
that he had brought intoxicants on the
home grounds.
The trial lasted the most Of two days
and resulted in the jury finding Jor
dan guilty, and it's recommending that
Jordans name be removed from the
church membership. Jordan's attorney
at once took an appeal to the presid-
ing elder of the district.
Rev. w. E. Pitner Will Preside.
Presiding Elder w. f. Pitner will
preside at the appeal hearing next
week. He will act in the capacity very
similar to that Of a trial judge. The
jury will probably consist Of seven
jurors, or as they are known in church
parlance in cases of appeal, triors OF
appeal. The presiding elder may sum-
mon not more than fifteen, nor less
than seven, Of these triors, from as
many churches of the district as he de-
sires jurymen. All of these triors are
lay members OF the church, and each
district conference elects one from each
church at each annual conference. Rev.
Pitner will summon seven of these
jurymen to serve at this appeal.
This jury has the right to either af-
firm or reverse the verdict of the jury
that convicted Jordan, or it may re-
mand the case back to the church for
trial.
In this appeal Jordan, instead of be-
ing the defendant, as in the former
trial, becomes the plaintiff, but 9TH
erwise the trial itself does not differ
from the first. one, excepting that no
new evidence is admissible.

THE MAcMILLEN RECITAL
Eminent violinist and Soprano Civ
DeIjohtful Artistic Concert

6tUlUCul vIOtIulSI An0 soprano SIvo
Delightful Artistic Concert.
Francis Macmillen, who ranks
among the first Of Americas great vio-
lin virtuosos, and Nine. Rosina Van
Dyk of Amsterdam, and Herr Richard
Hageman. the Dutch pianist, appeared
in distinctly artistic concert at the
Odeon theater Monday night. The
usual exceedingly small but enthusiast
tic audience, made up mostly Of the
lovers Of really excellent muic, heard
a recital that has probably never been
excelled from purely artistic view
point in the city.
While Macmillen Is acknowledged to
be a great violinist, and despite the
fact that he has appeared here once
before, the audience numbered barely
more than $50 people.
Mr.. Macmillen is truly a wonderful
performer on the violin, and he COW
cred wide range Of themes, thought
and expression in the four numbers
which made up his repertoire. Any of
his numbers could be rightfully
termed ultra-technical, altho some
were simple but beautiful airs. His
opening number. a concerto in three
parts, by Vieuxtempe, was an exceed
ingly difficult and beautiful number.
Schubert's Ave Maria" and Pagan
infs "Moise Fantastic" written for the
@ string alone, and a minuet by Mo-
Fart were beautifully rendered musi-
cal gems.
In Nine. Van Dyk, Mr.. Macmillen
mas with him soprano who is pos
sessed of an exceedingly sweet and
musical voice, which she handles with
grace and ease. She gave three num-
bers, and the last, the BELL Song from
Lakme," by Delibes. was perhaps best
received by the audience. In response
to Its cordial reception, she sang "An-
ME Laurie in English, as it has prob
ably never been sung in this city be-
fore. Herr Hageman appeared only
as an accompanist.
The concert was marred by annoy
ing noises from the gallery, which
forced Mr.. Macmillen to stop once In
the middle Of Il number and threaten
to terminate the concert unless the
noise ceased. He was also shut off
from the stage by the premature drop
ping Of the curtain as he was bowling
his adieus to the audience, which ruff
fled the violinist's temper.

"The Lion and The Mouse" Mex.
Abrasion

What will prove a genuine dramatic
treat will be the presentation here on
Wednesday, April 9Th. by Henry B.
Harris of the phenomenally successful
play, "The Lion and the Mouse" which
is now in its twelfth month of an I'M
interrupted run at the Lyceum Theater,
New York, and which has made new
records in theatrical annals by being
the only play to run thru an entire
summer season in New York city with
out single break.
1.-The Lion and the Mouse" is from
the pen Of Charles Klein, the author
Of '"The Music Master" and is unani-
mously voted by both press and public,
the most absorbingly interesting play
Of the period.
Mr.. Klein has taken as his theme
the political and money interests Of
the country pitting against them hon
esty and social problem. That single
man can amass a fortune Of a thousand
millions during his lifetime is argued
in Mr.. Klein's play to be impossible
and honestly done. John Burkett
