TWO SERMONS BY
REV.STEPHEN POWER
NEW ASSISTANT RECTOR HEARD
AT ST. PETERS AND THE AD-
VENT CHAPEL.

Rev. Stephen Power, the assistant
rector of ST. Peters Parish, preached
his first sermon at ST. Peters church
Sunday morning at eleven o'clock TAX
ing as the subject of his discourse the
tWenty-seventh chapter of Matthew
and the 18th verse: When he was set
on the judgment seat, his wife sent
unto him, saying, Have thou nothing
to do with that just man: for / have
suffered many things this day in
dream because of him."
The subject was handled in a mas
terly way by Mr.. Power and his dis
course showed that he had given the
subject much thought and study. He
applied the same thing to the present
day man and woman. The same mes
sage said the speaker, comes to us in
our every day life, and our conscience |
tells us too often to have nothing to |
do with that just man.
Before Mr. Power began his sermon
Mr.. Capers introduced the new as
sistant rector and in a few we'll chosen
words mapped out the work that would
be carried on in the Parish Mr. Ca
pers stated that the coming of Mr.
Power did not mean that ne
would be released from his
church work, but that it meant re-
newed effort on his part to bring more
men into the church.
At seven o'clock Mr.. Power conduct

A White Way on the Farm

Kirchville Mo. Cor. Kansas City Star.
Yarrow is probably the smallest vii
lage in Missouri that has an electric
light plant. The population of Yarrow
consists of the families of a grocery man,
a blacksmith, a miller and two retired
famers. Each family has its home bril-
liantly lighted by electricity.
The electric light plant is owned and
operated by Michael Weber, who has
for 20 years or more run an old fash
Toned water mill at Yarrow. Mr.. Weber
is an inventive man and recently he con-
ceived the idea of attaching his water
machinery to a ten-horse-power dynamo
and making electricity for himself and
neighbors. A dynamo was installed at a
nominal cost and for the first time in the
history OF the village of Yarrow electric
lights were turned on last week
Mr.. Weber says he expects to put in
a larger dynamo and to light the entire
southwest corner of Adair county. He
says further that the Charlton river as
a source/of waterpower should be devel-
oed as it has great possibilities fol
Kirksvile and other towns near the
stream. He is interested in a project to
put a 100000 dam across the Charlton
west of Kirksville and to install a mod
ern power plant
The dam that now furnishes power
for his plant is only seven feet high
and was built in 1S49. For years it fur
nshed power for an old fashioned under
shot water wheel, but more recently he
has installed two wheels of comparative.
ly late pattern, which now gives him
approximately rs horse power, which is
sufficient for grinding corn. bucl1wheat
and running the dynamo for his light
plant.

Japanses HerOism

FROM tn6 LOnuOn ZINES.
Subjoined Is the translation of a mes
sage written by Lieut.. Tsutoma Sakuma,
who was in command of the Japanese
submarine No which foundered while
maneuveriag in Hiroshima Bay. The
message was found in the coming tower
of the submarine after she had been
brought to the surface.
1T is with the deepest regret that
write this message to describe the loss
of this boat with my fellow officers and
men, due to my own fault. I would here
specially mention that all steps have been
taken to raise her, my comrades and men
working earnestly and calmly till the end
| ordered the ship to dive with the engine
running, but as | found she went down
too far, tried to shut the valves which
admit the sea water to the ballst tank,
but unexpectedly the chain working these
valves broke, and | was left helpless, un-
able to control the boat. Meanwhile the
tanks filled with water, and the boat went
down at an incline of about % degrees.
After striking the bottom the water be-
gan rushing in; the switchboard was
immersed In water; all electric lights
went out; the fuses burnt away anu the
boat was filled with poisonous gases, SO
that we experienced the greatest difficult
ty in breathing>
Under these conditions we worked our
very utmost with the hand pumps to
empty the main ballast tank, which, be-
lieve. we succeeded in doing, although we
could not read the guages owing to dark
ness. No electric current was available,
as l mentioned before, and our last hope
of rising to the surface lay in working
the hand pumps only.
Il write this in the dim light coming
from the coming tower, Has a. m.
II earnestly beseech his majesty to
grant me forgiveness and to succor the
families of my comrades and men who
have lost their lives in this perishing
boat. This Is my only wish.-12:30 p. m.

can breathe, though l am sure we must
have blown out the gasoline entirely from

The Skyscrnper

From Wall Street Journal
Men still under 80, since they began
their careers as office boys in Wall street
could have seen all the steel-frame build
ings erected in New York Something
like S. per cent of them have gone UP In
the last 10 years There is no comparison
between the New York of today and
especially the New York of the financial
district. with the city Is years ago. More
remarkable even than the physical
change is the growth of office accommo-
dations and the increase of the demand
with the supply.
In one of the great buildings of R~oe1
street some 5000 persons are employed
daily. The dozen or more three and four
story houses demolished to make place
for 1t probably did not shelter much more
than one-tenth of that number even al
though it is eight years old. and there's
fore trife out of date. The 19-story
Gillender building. on the northwest cor
ner of Nassau and Broad streets. Is very
little older, but is to be taken to pieces
like a puzzle money box In order to
make room for building 500 feet high,
which will auadruple the accommodations
on the already wel-built lot which it will
occupy.
