NOVEL CAMPAIGN
FOR FUNDS PLANNED
CHURCH MEMBERS TO RAISE A
MILE OF DIMES
colegroVe Pastor Organizes q New
Scheme to Collect Money to
Pay for Building for
Services

What promises to be one of the
most interesting church campaigns to
secure funds for the enlargement of
the work will be inaugurated by the
Union Congregational church of Cole
grove Sunday morning, when Rev. A.
A. Kidder, the pastor, will start a
movement to secure a mile of dimes
to pay for the new church building
which has recently been purchased
from the Episcopal church.
Rev. Mr.. Kidder, feeling many peo-
pie would be ready and glad to give
10 cents toward purchasing the new
church building, has decided upon this
unique plan, and Sunday church mem
bers will be asked to take ten books,
foot long each, to secure funds, six
teen dimeG to each book A bulletin
at the temporary hall used for services
on Vine street will keep the members
posted on their journey to secure the
mile.
Rev. Mr.. Kidder organized the
church two years ago, it being the
only church in Colegrove. 1t is a
union church, but is of the Congrega-
tional denomination. There are forty
members of the church, with a Sun
day school of ninety members, in
charge of Chauncey Smith. The Chris
tian Endeavor society has twenty-five
members, with Junior auxiliary Of
thirty-eight members.
The church building erected by the
Episcopal church on Vine street near
Santa Monica avenue has been pur-
chased by the Union church and will
be occupied when the funds are raised
for its payment. The contest will be
closed March 10, when the new church
will be occupied.
An interesting feature of the con-
test will be the books returned to the
treasurer, each with a foot of dimes
and which will be hung up in the hall
used for church purposes.
Rev. Mr.. Kidder is we'll known as
Chaplain Kidder, acting as hotel chap
lain in Los Angeles for more than a
year.

PHOENT, March 19.-Clever enough

ment for $3.50 worth or wood, receiv-
ing the difference in cash.
Discovery was not made of the for
gerry until late yesterday afternoon

ordered it delivered to 410 Moth Fifth
avenue, which Is a fictitious number,
and when this was discovered an in
yestlgation was started, which result
ed in a warrant being sworn out for
McCormicks arrest.
Though an old offender, who has
frequently been In the county jail,
Sheriff Hayden did not discover from
the description that Bender and Nc
Cormick we're one and the same man
until ne was brought to the county
Jail this morning.

s1.20 was found in McCormick's peck
cts, and ne swora to Deputy Sheriff
Olea that this was all the money he
had. Not satisfied, oiea searched fur
Their and found SO bill in the lining
of the mans vest.

more bills hidden in his clothing he
was stripped, and when the deputies
had finished, his clothing was ready
Tor the rag pile. He had to be given
a new suit.
Mccormick laughed about his es-
.capade, saying that BE felt glad be
cause someone had got load Of wood
for nothing. He had not yet heard
that there was no one living at 410
North Fifth avenue. Just before he
was sent to a cell. Mccormick said he.

TUCSON, March 19.-On the first
OF next month, April, there will take
place the most important change in
the matter of railroad officials for

mite was able to be learned in refer
ence to 1t until yesterday.

ministrative success and he has been

can find some consolation in the
fact that the one quail was not
shot while it was sitting.
The English tell story of .
Frenchman who went shooting
with q Britisher, and espying a
pheasant running along on the
ground, the guest promptly shot it,
much to the surprise and disgust
of his host.
The Englishman quietly called
the attention OF the son OF sunny
France to the fact that the latter
had told him he shot game on the
wing.
The Frenchman replied: "Yess,

that will deprive the states OF their
just powers. Let us hold fast to the
broad and liberal, yet safe, rules Of
the constitutional construction ap.

lished by judicial decisions. In so
doing we will sustain our dural
system, under which the govern
ment of the Union is forbidden to
exercise any power not granted to
it, expressly or by necessary i'm
plication, while the states will not
be hindered or fettered in the ex-
ercise Of powers which have not
been surrendered to the Union,

School Notes.

We begin the new year with
"charity to all and with malice to-
ward none" either great or small.
In other words with the Christmas
spirit.
A class for beginners is now being
formed in the first room. Parents
having children of school age please
take notice and start the little fell
lows this way at once.
County Supt. Greenough spoke
to our young people of the seventh
and eighth grades and High School
Tuesday morning. He told some
interesting incidents, quoted some
beautiful verses and gave US some
sound advice. We shall be glad to
have him come again.
The new International Encyclo-
pedia recently ordered arrived dur
ing the holidays and is now in use
in the High School.
Our enrolment has increased
this week by about twenty and is
probably very near the top notch
for this year.
Some scheme to relieve the pres
ure just now in the seventh and
eighth grades will be welcomed.
Shall they > be moved to larger
rooms or divided into more rooms?
Here is a thought from a promi-
nent school journal: "The state
does not oweit to the parents to
educate their children for them.
Parents owe it to their children
to provide them an education that
will enable them to supports them
selves or to make the most of their
powers. In addition to this par
ents owe it to the state which pro-
tects their persons and property
to see that their children are train
ed for useful citizenship. The
state ows it to itself to protect it.
self against vice and crime by Civ
ing the best education possible to
all its citizens. The parent who
refuses to send his child to school
is an enemy to society and the
state must compel the child's at
tendance, as a measure of self de-
fense." Little by little the Ameri-
can people are coming to see that
the compulsuory school laws Of
Germany and other countries are
needed here.

It is time that he were put out Of

cold blood former governor; he
said many times that he killed him
and every time he told the grew.
some story he added fresh and hor-
rible details to his narrative. He
also confessed to the murder Of
other persons. He has said that
he is and has been for years bad
man. He has also expressed q de.
sire to 60 to the gallows and pay
the debtor rather only part Of
it-he owes. He is q living dem
onstrstion OF the fact that he ought
to die an ignominious death. But
be still lives. II the authorities
intend u. keep Orchard merely to
show him occasionally in the court
room, it is hoped that they will
come to the conclusion to keep his
mouth shut. If they don't intend
to crafty his desire and hang him
at the earliest possible moment,
then they ought to put him away
where no decent person can zee
him or hear his story Of crimes.
