the president which gives to it all
the force of general law.
a committee ns twelve is to be
appointed to conduct the investiga-
tion, six of whom shall be designated

ate committee on public lands, will

doubtless. will result in his selection

quire the attendance of witnesses and

clared the speaker; and, as a mem-
ber of a church, would you do what
you would not expect Jesus to do2.
Grace of patience and the qualities
that go to give the child or grown
person the resemblance of Jesus are
the things the Christian needs"
Help me to love everybody is
the prayer of my heartl" exclaimed
the evangelist. He then spoke of a
noted lecturer whose subject is
Black Cats" and who claims that
the blacklist cat has some white
hairs. so, the meanest character
has some good traits" said Mr.. Ham
ilton. Look for good in others,
rather than condemn. Rough edges
appear: mistakes happen. Have 9TH
ers forget these rather than have the
good in them forgotten" were state
ments kindly uttered at last night
meeting.
Examples of courage were referred
to by the evangelist. He said that
there were only two classes of people
those on one side for Christ. and
those on the other for the devil.
a high tribute was paid to those
who were brave. The brave preach
er in and out of the pulpit, the brave
business man, the brave Christians
in every walk of life, the brave men
in the enforcement of the laws and
the suppression of eyil-"the world
admires these" said Evangelist Ham
ilton. He also said that he admired
the brave editors; admired anything
they allowed in their columns that
tended 20 elevating and bettering so
eiety and for closing their papers to
anything that would injure or ruin
the lives of little children.
He summed up his talk with a few
plain and kindly spoken words, and
closed with an earnest prayer.
Tonight Mr.. Coles will sing. and
the evangelist will take for his sub
iect, 'Hindrances to Reyivals."

1T MEANS MORE THAN CHURCH

CHRISTIAN"

The attention of the vast throng
of people was marked. and there was
no disturbance of any kind to mar
the pleasure OF the speaker nor lis
teners.
On the platform were noticed sew
eral of the clergy of the city church
es and others were about the room.
looking to the comfort of the audi
ence.
The work of the ushers pleases all.
All of the workers are grouped in
classes. so no great burden falls upon
any one class at any service.
Rev. Beach read impressively the
Scripture lesson from l John, first
chapter.
In the prayer by Rev. Rhode of
the English Lutheran church, an
earnest petition was offered that the
people be made more Christ-like and
that the efforts of all workers in the
services be literally blest.
Christ Our Example" was the
speakers subject. Evangelist Ham
ilton read from st. John, 18th chap
ter. 18th verse: For ! have given
you an example that ye should do
as | have done to YOU; and for 30
minutes spoke in calm, forceful
manner, using the simplest kind of
language to express his thoughts. His
words fell with effect upon his hear
ers.
He stated that all nations. how
ever prosperous, allowed themselves
to lift their ambitions to higher des-
TIMES. and that parents, in their re-
lations to child-life. We're leaders of
children. Yet these considered 'all
q God above all"
He spoke of many bearing marks
that would at once and without any
doubt determine their profession. and
cited the case of noted artist who
| travelling in foreign land, had lost
his passport. Wishing to cross the
border. the artist stated his case. but
the officer said that, if he was the
| artist, proof of his ability at sketch
ing a group of peasants would deter.
mine his identity. So rapid and ac-
curate was the work of the artist
that the officer questioned him nc
further.
Are you bearing the attributes OF
Christi" was the question directed
to the audience. The speaker asked
that the thought of church member
ship be put away for the time being.
Matters of personal contact with the
life of Jesus seemed to be the one
great need of the hour to determine
whether or not one was a Christian,
| rather than church membership.
''One need not go to heather lands
to find heathen. The man who does
not worship Christ is heathen," de-
clared the evangelist.
He then spoke of the life of Jesus
being unspotted from the sin of the
world. He drew comparisons and
asked what one would think of Je-
sus, If he was on earth today and
participated in Sabbath desecration
and took up habits that comes under
ones observation on the streets and
public places, yet claimed to possess
that Christ-likeness.

TOM JoHNsoN's CONDITION.

Tom L. johnson is in the hardest
fight of bis life. He is fighting to re.
gain his lost health; he Is lighting 70,

For several years johnson has been 9
sick man. His family and closest per-
sonal friends have known it, but the
truth as to his physical condition has
never gotten beyond this inner circle.
For several years he has dieted snd
been treated for diabetes. For months
past he has told his friends that he had
beaten diabetes and that he felt his::return
to full health and strength WAS matter
of short time. Neither bis appearance
nor actions have corroborated bis spoken
optimism, however.
Throughou! bis last csmpaign he was
under ply slcisn's care. For weeks he lay
abed in New York undergoing the most
heroic treatment. A week before the ref.

Fred Stolls. whose home is in the low

adjudged insane last week and committed
to the county Jail, at Manassas: Sat
urday evening he sttempted suicide by
but,ing his head against the iron bsrs of
his cell. When demonstrated with by the
iailer for his rash act, Stolls said he
could not stand what people were saying
about him, and that the ghost OF Quin-
ton Hutchinson was crying out against
him for murder. About year ago Quin,
ton Hutchinson was accidentally killed
in the pyrites mines near Durnfries, at
which time Fred Stolls was superlnten.

cause of Hutchinson's widow against the
mining company for damages, the plain

BITTER ATTACK ON CANNON.

BITTER ATTACK ON CANNON.
A bitter personal attack upon Speaker
Cannon was made In the House just be.
fore adjournment yesterday by Mr..
shackleford, dem ocrat, of Missouri.
II am not talking about OsDnonism, "
shouted Mr.. Shacklsford, looking
straight into the eyes of Speaker CaE-
non, who occupied scat on the rsput-
licsn side, 81 am talking about Oan-
non."
Mr. Prince, of Illinoiu, who was pre-
siding during the consideration of the
pension appropriation bill, raped the
Missouri member to order, whereupon
M. Sbackleford changed his language,
saying: tI am talking about the gentle
man from Illinois, the Hon. Joseph @.

As Cato had ended all his speeches by
declaring that Carthage must be destroy
ed, Mr.. Shackleford said, 80 for years be
bad been declaring that Caunonism must

was opposing.
Mr.. Shacklelord cited instances of
rulings of the speaker in refusing to rec

Mr.. Cannon rose in his place to make
reply, but republicans near him
urged him not to do 30 and be
yielded.
At times Mr.. Shackleford attempted
