The Rev. William Pickersgill, head
of the Helping Hand church. Glouces-

in the program. Mrs. Plum was anx-

Pastor Pickersgill said he could
find no authority for such a ceremony,

FEDERAL CHIEF OF MINES

In the appointment of DR.. Joseph A. Holmes to
be director of the new bureau Of mines it is con-
ceded in Washington that probably the best
equipped man for the position In the United
States has been gained for this important post.
Ever since congress passed the bill creating
the bureau and giving it authority to investigate
mine disasters, make experiments and suggest
means whereby accidents may be decreased and
the yearly casualty list shortened, efforts have
been made by hundreds of interested persons to
have DR.. Holmes selected as chief. The indorse-
ment Of all the coal operators associations has
been given, every prominent mining engineer in
the country, including John Hays Hammond, has
made his plea for DR.. Holmes, and the miners
union has added it's efforts in his cause.

TO HEAD THE GOULD FAMILY

One Of the sons Of the very rich who does not
believe that his life should be given up to idle
ness and sports Is Kingdom Gould, the eldest Of
the seven children Of George Jay Gould. Kingdom
is only twenty-three years old, but he knows a
whole lot about his fathers interests and, for
that matter, about the interests of the entire
Gould family. This is as 1t should be, for he is
destined to take his fathers place as the head
of that multi-millionaire family. He is a we'll
educated man without evil habits and with a love
for work. This week he left to join the rest of
the Gould family in Europe. He would have gone
with them last spring, but he felt that he wanted
to familiar'Ee himself with the Gould railroad sys-
tenn in the southwest. So instead of lolling about
thn various resoris Of the Old world he has been
