0NE MORE CHARGE FILED AGAINST
 RUBERTO
SOLD CHEESE TO MERCHANT AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE DELIv-
 FRY IN WHISKEY.

Contrary to the expectations of all concerned, the long awaited governors < warrant for the extradition of Alcssan. dro Ruberto failed to materialize last night when the mail was distributed. The only development of the day was the receipt of long affidavit by Sher- if Thompson from an Italian, grocer, in Hancock, Mich, giving interesting details of the versatility of Ruberto when it came to separating the credu- lous from their coin.
 Here is the affidavit:
 STATE OF MICHIGAN,
 County of Houghton--ss-
 Gabrielli Guisfedi, of Hancock, Mich igan. being duly sworn, doth depose and say that on the Sth day of August, A. D. 1908. one Allesandro Roberto. rep rcscnting himself as the agent of the Florence Distilling Company, of New York, called upon this atiiant and of fered to sell him certain brands of Olive oil and cheese at a figure about 10 to l2 per cent under the then cur rent market price, on condition that the buyer should advance certain amount of money in cash which was to be used by the seller to pay the import duties on the goods in question; that, think ing it perfectly proper to take advan- tage of the opportunity to get the goods a triae cheaper he gave the said Ales- sandro Ruberti an order for olive oil and cheese amounting to about $fs0; that he gave him check for $l00 pay able at once, and signed what said Ruberti said were four notes for the balance. each of which notes was to be payable in one month after the first, second and third had been paid; tilIs Ruberti had the said check for $l00 certified on the 10th day of August, 1908, and on the 18th day of August, 1908, the First National Bank of Han.. cock where this affiant does his banking. received and paid another check for $40 and sent the proceeds to tine bank from which it was received under en- dorsement of the Florence DistillIng company; that this afliant has had mum. erous letters written to the Florence Distilling company, countermanding the order for the goods in question and re- questing the return of his money, but that the said Florence Dlstilling com pany did not reply at all for long time and then finally stated that they had in vestigated all the matters and founo that affiant had given an order for 10 barrels of whisky, for which they sent him warehouse receipts and upon which 'it will be necessary to pay furhcr large sums before they would be the property of this affiant; that he did not yder any whisky, and does not want it, hay, ing no use for 1t, as he is not in the business of selling liquors, but is a grocery man.

SERIOUS PROBLEM FUR THE CHURCH
How to Reach the Masses on

ROCHESTER'S EXPERIENCE
Rev. Paul Moore strayer Organizes Popular Series of Services at Down. Town Theatre-Wide
 Range of Subjects.

(How can the church better reach "the people?' That's the problem that clergy and laymen are trying to meet the coun- try over. That the church has lost its grip on the masses, that 1t is only touch ing the edges of the real, every day ques- tions of life Is the belief of many. h. stftutionalize the church. Is their remedy. Organize clubs, baseball and basketball teams and install gymnasiums. That the difficulty lies In another direction, that the churches work of moral leadership and inspiration to a larger life underlies and is greater than any particular re- forms as expressed by Hayes Robbins in the Atlantic Monthly is the theory of others. The following article by Livy S. Richards, editor of the Rochester Even ing Times, describes a successful experi- ment in organizing a peoples church. Next week an article by Jeffrey R. Brack- ett, director of the Boston School for Social Workers, will present the other side of the question that the church generally speaking should not try to be- come the organ Of any particular move ment.'O

And so an employment bureau was open ed This consisted of an office In which the man seeking work could leave ms name, address, claims and references. Where possible the claims and refer- ences were investigated. Employers were asked to draw on these waiting lists and some were persuaded as social service to make temporary work for especially needy applicants No charge was made hv the bureau In all more than 6U ap- plications were registered and more than 100 mtn- were placed at work Inis re- quired some paid help additional to the secretary, but the expense was small Ont of this simple plan of free intelli- gence office for the unemployed IS now growing a movement to federate the charities of Rochester and focus all bet terment activities into central clearing house ,of information.

 To carry the message of the church to the large number of city dwellers who do not attend church and who are more or less out of touch and sympathy with the spirit and methods of the average church was the experiment tried last win ter in Rochester, N. Y. It's inception and workings make an interesting story.
 The author of the plan and the leader in it's execution was Rev. Paul Moore Strayer pastor of the Third Presbyterian church. Mir Strayer's church is located on East avenue. Rochester show resi- dence street, equaled by few in the world In point of beauty and wealth of lawns and homes. The churchs congregation is drawn from well-to-do homes Many of it's pew holders are wealthy By loca- tion and In respect of the circumstances of it's congregation it carries to outsiders unacquainted with its spirit the impress sion of an aristocracy, In which the man in a cheap suit or the woman in a calico gown might not feel at home

Strayer had been and still is the fraternal delegate of t<e Rochester Min isterial association in the central coun- cil of the trades unions of Rochester He had found among the representatives of the labor organizations and in their rank and file as well not only marked in- differences but actual hostility to the church.
