PROTECTION FOR THE

From time to time we see it chron- ic1ed that a shoplifter has been caught but owing to family connections the name would be withheld and no pros ecution would follow. Then again we see the heading, "Is it a Case of KIep- tomania?'' the name of a lady ap- pears who is found with the goods on her person. She is arrested and brought to court, her husband pays her fine and shares in the disgrace brought to his name. The old adage ttAn ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure,' applies here. Any means that will cure this long felt abuse will be welcomed by the mer- chant who has long been a sufferer. The plan offered by the Eagle Nation al Detective agency through their capable superintendent, Axel Johnson is given in another part of this isuue explaining the advantages, expense etc, must appeal to the merchants generally answer to what are we going to do about it, thereby sav- ing this enormous drain that they have been subjected to, while the would-be transgressor is saved morti- fication and disgrace. It will also ap- peal to the shoppers when they see the proposed signs displayed. Honest employees will also hail it with delight as it will have a check on the dishon- est ones, thus saving them from sus- piciOn and unWarranted accusation as many times happen, leaving the i'm nocent who are suspected smirched through the tact and intrigue of the guilty.

BENEFITS OF LASTING
 CHARACTER EXPECTED FROM LAY MOVEMENT Local Interests to Take Up MissiOD=
 ary Propaganda in Real > Earnest. MEETING CALLED FOR APRIL 8

Although the convention of the Lay mems Missionary Movement in Bridge port is over, the real work has just begun. The object of the convention was to arouse interest and enthusiasm in the cause of foreign missions. That object has been accomplished and the churches will now work to keep that interest and enthusiasm alive.
 If they follow the recommendations of the pastors and 1aymen's meeting yesterday afternoon each church will appoint a live missionary committee members of the church and arrange for a systematic method of contribut- ing to foreign mission work. This is where the real work of the campaign comes in.
 A meeting will be held April 8 in this city for further discussion and plans about the work.
 It will be several days before the full significance of the convention is felt. The thoughts sent forth by the speak CTS were big thoughts. William T. Ellis Of Philadelphia brought the mes sage of cos1nopo1itanisrn or worldism peal to get away from the present provincialism and look at things from a world standpoint, to see things in a big way.
 The significant universal unrest was another message of the convention and brought by men who have been on the scene and have been eye witnesses of the incidents they have described.
 Facts have been presented about conditions in the Far East in way which has been impressive.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-03-01

The convention closed last evening at the First Congregational church by an illustrated lecture on Africa by Rev. Joseph Clark. D. D., for 30 years a missionary in the dark continent.
 Judge E. K. Nicholson, chairman of the local committee, presided at the meeting. He said that the convention had been a success. The total num- Der of delegates each of whom had to pay registration fees was 504. This was a larger number. he said. than at Iand Maine, and more than was at the convention in Hartford some time ago, although Hartford drew delegates from all over the State, Bridgeport had only Fairfield county to draw from.
 He thanked all those who had assist ed him and the committee in the work of the convention. 'I have had all the assistance any one could need" he said.
 The executive secretary, David H. Brown, of Hartford, who had much of the detail to look after, is we'll pleased with the work that has been accomplished.
 The pastors and 1aymen's meeting of conferences conducted by experi- enced missionaries who made sugges- tions as to the best way for follow ing up the convention with hard work and making the convention enthusiasm a, motor power for continuous inter- est and support of foreign missions.
 As business man Charles M. Cole who was one of the local committee, said he was satisfied that his three weeks work had been a good invest ment.

SLUM WORKERS
 AND THE POOR
Appeal For Clothing Especially For
 Little OneS.
CCommunicated.)

Last Saturday from a. I'm. until 2 D. m over 400 garments and 12O pairs of shoes, also 300 magazines were given to the poor at the S1urn Workers Headquarters, 683 Broad street. If the public could have witnessed the ap- pearance of those who applied for clothes they surely would feel grati- fled by having aided by their dona- tions for the worthy cause Mrs. Rouland, the leader of the Slun Work CTS. says there were many who could not get just the clothes they needed as there were not enough to supply all, and she finds it necessary to desig- nate Saturday, March 5. for another distribution day. She asks especially for children's clothing there were over 200 little ones. some of them half naked. and Mrs. Rouland had to put ladies' long coats on them to cover their rags. She told them to come back Saturday when she might have clothing for all.
 Friends of the poor are kindly re- Quested to make special efforts dur ing this week to give their cast off clothing, shoes, etc., and food of every description There is a great need of infants clothing as most of the babies who come under their care have no clothing at all. The wagon of the S1uTn Workers will call for such arti- cles may be contributed if they are notified.
 Mrs. Rou1and extends her thanks to the generous public and to the press who have assisted her so much in this great and needed work.

at the trial of Aaron Burr for trea- son. Jefferson, in response to a sum mons issued by Chief Justice John Marshall, the famous constitutiona1ist, argued that the dignity of his offices raised him above all process of law, and refused to appear. Later Marshall upheld this position.
 The advisability of calling upon the President was suggested a result of the testimony of Clifford Pinchot on Saturday regarding conversations be- tween the President and himself. These converse tions have assumed a consid- erab1e importance in the present sta tus of the investigation but the Pres ident feels that his testimony regard ing them would hardly be admissible, being in the category of mere hearsay evidence so far as they related to Sec retary BaI1inger.
 When the committee met today Gif- ford Pinchot was again on the stand. At his first appearance on Saturday when he was examined for more than three hours, he had barely laid the foundation of his case against the sec retary of the interior. It is expected that he will occupy all the time of the committee during the three sessions scheduled for this week.

BAPTIST PASTOR
 ASSAILS BAPTISM
REV. DIR. ROBERT MACDONALD OF B R O O KLYN STRIKES HEAVY BLOWS AT HIS OWN DENOMINATION.

New York. Mar. 1.-The most cher ished doctrines of the Baptist church were attacked in a sensational address by the Rev. pr. Robert Mcdonald, pastor of the Washington avenue Bap- tist church, Brooklyn, one of the great est churches of it's denomination in America.
 Viewed from the Baptist strongpoint Dr. McDona1d's address was bold, naked heresy. As a pastor of a Bap- tist church, he struck heavy blows at the religious beliefs dearest to the Baptist people.

HOT SHOT FOR
 TROLLEY SERVICE
New Haven Citizens Show Dissatisfaction
 at Public Rearing.

New Haven, Mar. With the com n1ittee room crowded with close to 100 citizens, not one of whom on a show of hands would vote that he was sat isfed with the trolley service of New Haven, and without any representa- tive of the trolley company showing his head in the crowd although spe- cially called for by Chairman Leon ard of the Railroads and Bridges com mittee, the matter of Investigating the conditions of trolley service in this city was taken up last night. There was a big gathering of citizens and quite a number of them took the opportunity to vent their grievances.
 The committee took no action in the matter because when Acting Manager Harlan was called for by Chairman Leonard he was not there. The chair man stated that Harlan had promised to come and then asked several times for some representative of the com pany. All was silence. Finally Chair man Leonard said the committee would have to hold another hearing and if necessary subpoena some off cials of the company to appear and represent their case before the com mittee. This statement created quite a little sensation.
