St. Louis, Mo-, April 13.-The one
hundred and sixtieth birthday ami
versary of Thomas Jefferson was cele-
brated by the Jefferson cub tonight,
when former Attorney General Jud-
son Harmon of Cincinnati. and United
States Senator Gore of Oklahoma,
were the principal speakers. The
meeting was in the nature of mass
assembly attended by nearly 1000
persons. Harmon spoke as follows:
We meet tonight in honor of one
who hundred years ago retired
from public service, yet who still
stands second only, in the eyes of
most, to him whom all acknowledge
to be first. This might be expected
here on the great domain he secured
for the Union,- but thousands are
meeting elsewhere all over the land
to honor him as well.
This enduring eminence does not
rest on either of the things which

wholly lacked the gift of oratory;
and, though he was young and strong
during the Revolution, he never drew
thefsword. In fact, 1t was long dis
puted whether he was efficient as
war governor of Virginia when the
state was repeatedly invaded by the
foe.
His lasting hold on the grateful
remembrance of his countrymen IL
due wholly to the ideas of liberty and
equal rights for all whose chief ad-
vocate he was and to the principles
he established by which these may be
enjoyed without losing the benefits
which civil government alone can
supply.

SAYS ALL SIN is
FOR MANS GOOD
Sermon Of X. c. Russell at
the Adventist Camp
Meeting

Chairman K. G. Russell. Of Washing
ton. ID. c., spoke at the camp meeting
of the Chesapeake conference Of ths
Seventh Day Adventists. at Twenty
first and Boulevard last night. Mr..
Russell is chairman Of the religious
liberty bureau. The camp meeting
was largely attended and the greatest
interest is being taken in the confer
ence.
Mr. Russell spoke on text from
jeremiah. Let not the wise man glory
In, his wisdom. nor the mighty man in
his might. nor the rich man in his
riches; but him that glorieth, let him
glory IN Me-"
Mr.. Russell emphasized that man
should not glory in his attachments in
themselves. for God was the author OF
all human ability and could take IL
away In an instant. Self-glory was
bound to end I'm an inglorious end, he
said. All knew the story OF Nebuchad-
nezzar and his bourtiful city OF
Babylon OF his surprising self-glory,
and nally of the wrath Of the Lord,
Nebuchadnezzars banishment and the
Insanity that sent him into TIE mea,l>
ows 10 eat grass with she cattle. Then
there was Herod. who set great pride in
his own glory brought about his humi-
liation. And so Il went on. these stories
Of the humiliation Of the proud. tho
selfish and the mighty. And the story
was ever being repeated to-day.
Never had the world been so proud
In its riches and might than to-day,
he said Every city is Sodom, reeS-
ing in inlquity and taking our loved
ones into sin. and IL is incumbent upon
all Christians to fight these mighty
wrongs
Too many complained Of what they
termed their misfortunes and lost faith
in God. But this was only because He
was. not understood. Every seeming
misfortune that He brought upon man
was for the greatest scod. All sin
even was for mans good. for II there
had not been sin and misfortune. man
would have become so enamoured OF
the world that there never would have
been knowledge Of God and of Heaven.

THE WEST POINT RIOT.
II Happened During tho csdetship Of
jefferson Davis.

Closely connected with Benny Ha-
vens' was the great cadet riot of Christ
mas, 1926. in the middle Of Jefferson
Davis third year. Before Christmas it
was rumored through the barracks
that Davis and other southern and
southwestern cadets were going to ex-
plain TO the other members of the
corps the mysteries Of eggnog. Cadets
Davis, Tilghman and Temple were 10
get the necessaries from Benny's, but
1t seems that something prevented, and
others had to get the materials. The
authorities were suspicious and or
dered the inspectors to stay up all
night to keep order. This angered the
cadets, and the preparations for the
eggnog went on. In the dark Of the
morning OF Dec. 25 the invitations
were sent out Robert e. Lee and Jo-
seph f. Johnston declined. ]. B. Ma
gruder. Drayton, @. J. Wright and 9TH
ers accepted. Davis was extending the
invitations when he heard a rumor that
Captain Hitchcock was abroad. He
ran back to. No. north barracks
where the refreshments were collected
called out, Put away that grog. boys;
old Hitch is coming" and looked up to
find that Hitchcock was already in the
room. Davis was sent to his quarters
under arrest fortunately for him. for
after some hilarious noise he went to
sleep and did not get into the riot
which then began. The instructors
and officers were chased out OF the
halls intS their own rooms and there
besieged. The cadets obtained arms
and organized the Helvetian league to
protect themselves against the bonn
bardiers, who. they heard, were or
dered out to subdue them. Davis room
mate. Walter B. Guion of Mississippi.
was the leader of the Helvetians. he
secured pistol and tried to shoot
Captain Hitchcock. Some Of the Off
GERS were badly bruised with stove
wood that the cadets threw at them.
After an hour or two the riot wore
out Later nineteen cadets. among
them Guion. were court martialed and
dismissed. Davis, with others, was
kept long under arrest and given de-
merits.-Professor w. l. Fleming in
Metropolitan Magazine.
