SAMPLE OF ENTERPRISE

II just came in to say hello, and
congratulate the Richmond delegation
for its splendid appearance, organiza-
tion and push displayed at the Wright
brothers homecoming celebration at
Dayton, Friday" stated John w. Vel
pert, of Peru, sheriff of Miami coun-
ty, on paying visit to this office last
evening. Similar expressions of con-
graduation were extended by p. NJ.
Crume, secretary of the Commercial
Club of Peru, who accompanied Mr..
Velpert
Continuing, Mr.. velpert stated,
ANY time Richmond wants to come to
Peru in such style it will be welcomed,
in fact we extend welcome to the in
dividual as we'll as the delegation. We
will do our best to show Richmond
citizens good time and entertain
ment."
The grand style In which Richmond
carried off the honors appealed to Mr.
Crume, who as secretary of the Peru
Commercial Club is very much inter.
ested in anything in the nature OF
municipal boosting. He considered it
a good stroke OF enterprise in the cit.
izens, including laborers, merchants
and professional men. to organize in
boosting the city and the fall festival.
Mr.. Velpert and Mr.. Crume were
enroute home after spending two days
in Dayton.

HAS LOST IT'S MISSION

New York, June 19.-The Salvation
Army was characterized an simply "a
tremendously rich oligarchy' by Judge
Forbes of st. John, N. B.. in today's
session OF the Pan-Presbyterian coun-
Gil. The Rev. A. F. Forrest Of Glas-
cow had read a paper on "The Down
town Church" in the course of which
he said:
Large audiences are not necessari-
ly a sign of vigorous life Of church
and the efforts to attract them by
various means often lead away from
the real aim of the gospel. We see
this best in the Salvation Army which
through the expansion into economic
fields has lost its mission of saving
souls"
Robert White, of London, answered
in protest, declaring though there had
been expansion Of the army into hui
name work there was no sign OF de.
crease in its evangelical efforts.
Judge Forbes then made his charac-
terization of 1t in support OF DIR. For
rest and was followed in defense OF
the army by the Rev. Dr. Woodside OF
Glasgow and the Rev. Robert Hunter
of Philadelphia.
The Rev. DR.. Conrad of Baltimore
caused something of sensation by
declaring his belief that the Protes
tant churches have not enough relig
ious spirit to do downtown church
work
In Baltimore. where I have been
minister twenty years" he said, 'onl,

The council admitted several chur
ches to membership, among them the
Presbyterian church of Korea with
23.f51 communicates and the evan
gelical reformed church of Hungary.

pany is also building a steel passenger
car which is apt to be adopted as its
standard, and will be better than those
now in use, for in its construction
everything except steel has been dis
earded except in the window sashes.
But this exception is likely to be done
away with for the Pullman people ex-
pect to provide cars having windows
without sashes, and this will probably
be done by setting the glass in the
frame of the car with a bolt attached
for the purpose of raising or lowering
the window.
In very short time people who
now ride in the common cars, known
as day coaches, will have the benefit of
the comfort and safety of the steel car.

'"The willingness of the average
American citizen" says the Times, ito
ride in flimsy cars which afford every
reasonable assurance of death or
manning in case of accident, when he
knows that it is perfectly practicable
to build strong cars, has cost many
lives, and presumably saved the rail-
roads many dollars" But some doubt
may be expressed about the last point,
because the railroad companies have
been forced to pay many thousands of
dollars in damages that they might
better have spent in building cars
that would not in an accident go to
pieces like box of matches.

1hF RRrfGUS COON IS TREED
LOCKED IN FRUIT CAR
Crawled Aboard Here and Found in
New Orleans.

Bill Irwin, an Americas mig, got free
transportation to New Orleans, accord
ing to a news dispatch yesterday from
that city, where he went as part of a
cargo of pears though not as a sample
of the fruit AS fruit of any kind Irwin
would probably prove anything but
appetizing
Negro like, irwin went to sleep as
soon as he had filled his stomach with
pears and woke up three days later in
New Orleans.
Attracted by cries coming from a
box car in the Louisville and Nash
vile yards, trainmen at once open
ed the car, and found Irvine, who had
been imprisoned in the car since last
Tuesday
Irvine crawled into the car at Amer
icus to eat pears, the car being loaded
with fruit. He must have gone to
sleep, for the next thing he knew he
was on the road, with the car doors
closed and sealed. 1t was the first
time he had ever left Georgia and he
was pretty well scared.
For three days and nights he sub
sisted on pears, unable to attract at
tention by his cries for release.
Irvine was taken to the station and
amusement was created when it be-
came known that he had been locked
up on the charge of lettering" "All I
wants." he said, sis 'tere git back to
Georgy."
