new YORK SHOW
GOES UP RIVER
Pageant Will Be Seen at Cities
Along the Hudson for a
Week

New York, Sept. 29.-The imagery
and sentiment of the Hudson-Fulton
celebration left New York today when
the Half Moon and the Clermont sailed
UP the Hudson to carry the inspiration
to the cities and towns which now
begin their part in the centennial. In
New York city the celebration will
practically conclude this week, but
along the route taken by the repro
duction of Hudson's and Fulton's
famous craft the festivities will con-
tinue week longer. The Half Moon
and the Clermont move slowly under
their own power when possible, but
accompanied by an escort to tugs,
motor boats and United States war
ships. The battleships and cruisers
cannot make the trip up the river on
account of their deep draught, but the
torpedo boats, submarines and one
cruiser drawing not more than twen-
ty-two feet will steam up the Hudson
and participate iii the celebration at
local points. Weather conditions to-
day were favorable for the balloon
race to Albany and the crowds began
early to surround the aerodrome on
River Side drive, awaiting to- see the
dirigibles of Captain Thomas Baldwin
and George Tomlinson launched for
the contest. The high northwest wind
that prevailed during the last three
days subsided to five miles an hour,
and with no street pageant to attract
attention, the city's million guests
had high hopes on an aerial show.

San Bernardino, Cal, Sept. 90
Jacob George. an old prospector, is
at Lone Willow Springs recovering
from peculiar condition. He was
found unconscious in Death valley
suffering from a jagged wound which
a vicious burro was tearing at for
blood with which to moisten the bur-
ro's parched throat. George was dis
covered by a party of miners who
were returning from the furnace
region. Lone Willow Springs is the
nearest point at which medical as
sistance could be obtained. The aged
prospector was lost for two days. To
obtain blood to moisten his swoolen
tongue and throat, George attempted
to inflict flesh wound on the pack
animal. Instead the prospector acci-

Falling helpless beneath the burning
desert sun, he lay unconscious. The
burro. crazed from lack of water,
viciously attacked the fallen man and
had torn big wound in Georges leg
when the rescuers opportunely ap-
peared.

years prominent in the Old Synod,

In all this time he has cost the
church but 1910, the price of the book
in which he kept the record of his
financial transactions, which run to
approximately $4,000. He paid for
the postage and this alone is said
to exceed $500. In recognition of his
service the presbytery has ordered

THE CH|CAG|0
: MINISTERS I \. ACT
Plan to Refute Police Charge
That They Favored Red
Light District :.

Chicago. Sept. 2s.-Chicago's new
est war on white slavery gained
/ impetus today when DR.. A.. G.
Dixon of the Moody church and
the Rev. Ernest A. Bell of the
Midnight mission niade sensational
charges that not only do the police
protect "Red Light" districts, but that
ministers desire at least one of those
districts to exist. These accusations
were launched before a meeting of the
church fed<sation council of Chicago,
held at the First Methodist Episcopal
church. 1t was resolved by the min
listers that the doom of the infernos
! of the city must be sounded; that the
"red light" districts must be extermi-
mated.
Mr.. Bell asserted that high police
official had told him the reason the
Twenty-second street "red light" dis
trict is in existence is because the
preachers want it there"
To Map Out Church Folly.
Discussion following heated speech
les resulted in the council deciding
that at the next meeting of the body.
Nov. 20, the subject of the "red light"
district shall be thoroughly discussed
and q church policy mapped out IN
detail. The purpose of this move
lment, 1t was said, is not only tn make
a systematic war to exterminate the
districts in question, but to put the
churches officially on record with ref
erence to the charge reported by Mr..
Bell as coming from "high police
official"
There is no district that is so we'll

discussions and actions on

the heels Of an address by DR.. G. r.
Henderson of the University of Chi
cago, who spoke as a member of the
International prison reform commls-
sion, he having been appointed by
President Taft. Mr.. Henderson spoke
highly Of the work of Attorney Cliff

For Definite Resoluy Ssx.
Several other short tan- a,
made. the tenor of which was~ :
while the council was disposed to fas
vor the annihilation of the 'red
light" district, yet it was important
that the council should not decide I'm
.pulsively, but the matter should be
drawn up in the form of definite res
olutions, 80 that the mehaSers in vot-
ing for them might be put on record
as indorsing definite action. It was
then suggested that the matter be re-
ferred to a special committee, but this
was dropped when DR.. Dixon proposed
that the subject of the "red light"
district be taken up at the next meet
ing.
1T is the duty of Chicago to sup
press this inferno of the side
and the one at Twenty-second street" I"
said DR.. Dixon. Protected as they
seem to be by the police department,
they are the worst disgraces that could
shame any community. recently
made tour of inspection in the west
side district and saw sights there
which would not care to picture be-
fore this body of men. And these
shameful scenes were going on with
the police marching up and down in
full view Of it. There is a law that
could exterminate such disgraces .as
these. but the law Is ignored and
these scenes are recognized and pro-
tected by the police"
In his conversation with the high
official who said that the Twenty-sec-
ond "red light" district was permitted
to run on the sanction of Chicago
ministers, Mr.. Bell did not mention
the police officials name. He spoke
of the Twenty-second street levee as
the worst place that could exist under
any condition and declared that "un-
less the Chicago ministers take ac-
tion to refute the statement of the po-
lice official it would be a disgrace
that would remain by them"
There ';s no excuse for the exist
ence of such conditions il>view of the
moral consciousness of the better ele-
ment of this city," said Mr.. Bell. "The
shame Of the existence Of these con-
ditions has remained in Chicago long
enough. And 1t is up, to us a1 this
time. when this war against vice and
chime is being brought q. under tho
leadership Of Mr.. Roe to lend him all
aid that. is in our power"

man, a woman and their five-year-old

All Have Become Important.
All these things have become i'm
portant In the hght that is being made.
In large measure the enemies of the
amendment who are taking active
part are out Of line. with the Conner
political regime. 1t is also fact that
the friends Of the proposition, who are
taking the front, are Conner followers,
and, as a rule, close to their leader.
There are notable exceptions to this
rule on both sides, the most striking
being that ). of Charles Henderson,
president Of the railroad commission,
long Conner man in all things.
Col. H. s. d. Mallory, candidate for
governor, and many of his friends not
aligned with the railroad and other
fights led by the governor, are ex-
ceptions the other way around. They
are boldly for the amendment and
stake their political life on it's fate.
Thus. In a measure at least, the prop
osition has divided factions, and Just
how far this will have effect on the
final end can only be guessed at. But
they only add to the politics of what
Is termed by its friends moral, not
a political movement.
Is Many Sided Fight.
Thus is the fight one of many sides.
Preachers are on both sides, but most
ly for the amendment. Women are for
1t. Politicians in the open are for 1t.
Churches in many cases have made 1t
standard of fellowship, so that 1t
has become a religious-political mat
ter In away. It is not popular TO
say this. but 1t is a fact Church
members are, however, very much d.
vided, and Democrats are by no means
one way either. The fact is, a large
part of the party is out against It. A
great many good church members
and the term good" is used advisedly
are fighting amendment.
And the result is far in doubt. But
the antis have an encouraging out
look. They are better organized than
any set Of men have been in oppos,-
tion to the Conner followers for seyc-
raj years. They are campaigning, or
will campaign, beat by beat and man
by man, to beat it. Education is 10
be the word and the antis are willing
to trust education. They believe that
the amendment will be killed If the
people know about it. and are willing
to let 1t all be known. 1t is the. first
fight they have made in an organized
way and they have confidence that
