FIRST CHURCH
FOR CHILDREN

| CHICAGO, May 9-The first chill.
dren's church of Chicago-and ,of
the whole country for that matter
has just been dedicated. 1t is To-
Gated at $40 Fairfield av and has
commenced it's work with a con-
gregation Of $50 children.
No grown-ups are allowed to at
tend this church. 1t belongs en-
tirely to the children and the only
big people who have ever seen in
side of it are the two young pas
tors from the Moody institute.
1t is just the kind OF church you
would like If you were child.
There are no old people to get
cross If you whisper a little or
shuttle your feet. There is no long,
dry sermon full of big words that
you cannot understand And when
the church gives social. you can
have two dishes of ice cream If you
want them.
Instead of sermons, this church
VIII nave SCOTleS-StOTleS ABOUT
Jesus and David and Samson and
Samuel. 1t will also have clubs
and sewing bees. Just now the
children are holding a series of
steropticon lectures and paying for
them themselves.
VIM. Filline, a printer, graduate
Of Moody institute, is the superin-
tendent of this novel church. Ber-
nard Gronseth, carpenter and pa
perhanger by trade and evangelist
by inclination, helped Filline to
erect the church.
1--WE been thinking of this fer
years." said Filline, as he leaned
on the handle of a mop. you
see, the children don't like to 60 to
a regular church because of the
constraint put upon them by the
older people. Here we shall pre-
serve order, but we shall also re-
member that children are children
and not grown-ups. The social fea-
ture is going to be one of the more
prominent things and then we are
goings to aid the older boys and
girls in getting work during their
vacations"

pointments. Not even do the sena-
tors name judges "by and with the
consent" of the president. Each
senator has come to regard it as
his special prerogative to pick out
candidates for the federal bench in
hts district. and have the president
send in the nanc to the senate.
Against this practice Roosevelt
has decided to take a stand. He
has named Milton D. Purdy as fed
eral judge to succeed Lochran in
the Minnesota district, and has de-
clined to name w. E. Hale, the
candidate endorsed by Senator
Knute Nelson.
To say that Nelson is angry is
to give no inkling OF the real
condition of that gentleman's men
tai state. He is fairly frothing
at the mouth. After the presi-
dent had sent Purdy's name to the
senate Nelson was approached by
Ia newspaper correspondent.
Not aXYZ XYZ XYZ XYZ XYZ
XYZ XYZ XVIII! - J."
remarked the senator. And the
paint on the walls rose slowly into
blisters.
Milton D. Purdy is assistant to
the attorney general. He comes
from Minnesota, and was appoint
ed to his present place by Attorney
General Knox during the trial of
the Northern Securities case, in
which he had a large part. Since
then Purdy has done good work in
prosecuting the paper trust, the
Standard Oil trust and in preparing
the case against the tobacco trust.
Senator Nelson has no objec-
ton personally to Milton D. Purdy.
Neither has Roosevelt any objec-
ton personally to Nelson's candi-
date, w. E. Hale. The latter is a
nice old man, who has practiced
law for many years in Minnesota,
has never held a public office, and
who thinks he ,ould like to go on
the beEch.
The real dispute is as to who
has the right to pick the Judge.
Nelson objects to Purdy because
Roosevelt has endorsed him. Roose-
welt objects to Hale because Nelson
insists upon him.
81 think, too, the president
ought to have the right to reward
good work by it's prosecuting Of
fcers," said the president to Sena-
tor Clapp. Salaries in the de-
partment of justice are none too
attractive, and the government
needs the best lawyers there are

in the business. To get them we
must be able to reward them"
What promises to happen in the
case of Purdy is the same thing
that happened in the case of Judge
John +. Safer of the southern dis;
trict of Ohio. Senator Foraker re-
fused to- endorse Safer, and his ap.
pointment papers have been in the
senator's inside pocket now for 13
months His name never has been
reported by Foraker to the ju-
dietary committee, nor by the COM
mittee to the senate. 1t is literally
"pocketed." Il
Meanwhile Judge Safer has been
serving without pay.
The nomination of Purdy when
itsreached the senate was sent, in
the regular routine, to the ju-
dietary committee The theory OF
such reference is that the commit
tee will look into the qualifications
of the candidate, and let the presi-
dent know If there are any reasons
which would disqualify the man
from holding the particular Office.
The practice is not according to
the theory. In practice the rest OF
the senators yield all such matters
to the particular senator whose To-
cality is involved. Ohio judicial APP
are referred to the
Ohio senators, and the Minnesota
judicial appointments to the Mime
sofa senators. If the two senators
from the state say 20. k the ap-
pointment is confirmed in regular
course. If they do not say the
word, the rest of the senate says
nothing. 1t is case with them of
standing together to hog the pa
tronage.
The issue between Roosevelt and
Nelson is clear cut. The president
did not, in fact, insist on Purdy. He
asked Nelson to submit other
besides that of Hale. Nelson

refused, and even ignored the presi-

names.
Senator Nelson seems to be
moved by a combination of mo-
tives. Aside from his desire to
control the appointment as part of
his personal patronage, he has long
nourished grudge against Roose-
welt, and finds this good occasion
to work it out. This grudge dates
from five years ago when Nelson
helped the president get the law
creating the new department OF
commerce and labor. In return for
that help Nelson demanded the ap-
pointment tot w. r. Merriam of
Minnesota, former governor of that
state. Roosevelt appointed Cortel-
you.
