THE MEN INTERESTED
Laymen of the Church Display Much
Interest in the Great Missionary
MOvnmont

The Laymens' Missionary Move
ment is sweeping the country from
coast to coast, ending in the great
national convention to be held in
Chicago early in May. These state
conventions were started late In the
fall and they have been carried for
ward every week since that time.
Conventions have been held in many
of the states in the east and west,
and many more are to be held-sev-
enty-five in all before the great gath
ering at Chicago.
The reports from these conventions
are interesting from the fact that the
laymen of the church have responded
to the calls made upon them in a
manner which has been, in q way,
the surprise of the country. The men
have become awakened to what they
can do in the interest of spreading
the gospel throughout the foreign
fields and they are taking hold Of this
work with a determination to follow
out the slogan of the movement-"To
evangelize the world in the present
genration.' In many of the state con-
ventions numbering owe a thousand
delegates have been in attendance,
who have been addressed by the most
prominent men engaged in this work,
both at home and abroad.
; The big state convention which is
ito be held at Mitchell is right in line
with the conventions that have been
held all parts of the country. There
was one closed at Omaha Sunday
evening that was a remarkable gath
ering of the men of Nebraska. Com
mencing today another big banquet
and convention will be held in Sioux
City and lasting until Thursday.
Mitchell's convention or, rather,
the convention for. this state. will be
held Tuesday night of next week. 1t
will open with a banquet in the city
hall when fully 500 men will be pres
ent to listen to the missionary adj
dresses to be given, principal among
which will be that of George s. Eddy.
and in all probability Ethan T. Colt
ton, formerly of Mitchell, who has
come to be n Of the strongest men
in the mission work under the auspi-
ces of the Y. NJ. G. A.
The men Of Mitchell are urged to
devote their time next week in attend
ing the convention. They are urged to
make application for tickets to the
banquet and to the convention as we'll
The banquet tickets are one dollar
and one dollar will be charged for
admission to the convention. This will
be the only money taken up at the
convention for it is OF the policy
to make solicitation for funds, which
is handled by the churches afterward.

Consideration Should Be Shown Tn.
organized Labor.
IN. O. Daily StatesJ

A few days ago the management
of the New Haven Railroad vo-
UNFAIRLY increased the wages of
those of ito employees who have no
organization with which to enforce
their demands for higher wages.
This action directs attention to
the large class of unorgauized Ia
Dor employed in the industry and
commerce of the country, which
today is bearing the Same burden
of the high cost of living that the
trade unionist bears, aud as q rule
is denied any consideration what.
ever, because it hae no organizs.
ton to be used as q club to obtain
recognition.
This 10 particularly true in the
case of clerical employees aud the
salaried class. If they are to be
denied tho consideration to which
they are entitled by reason of
their intelligence and the value of
their services it is only question
of time when they will be forced
into unionism in order to protect
themselves, and accept as law of
commerce aud industry that might
take precedence over right.
1t would he we'll it the oppo-
nepts of the policy of trades uni
ouism in this country whore to
manifest more concern for the
rights of unorganized labor aud
follow the example set by the man
agement of the New Haven Rail.

recognized it will be impossible in

onism among the clerical and sala-
ried workers OF the country.

DECIDE AGAINST
HOBBLE SKIRT
CLOAK AND SUIT MAKERS PUT
RAN ON ABBREVIATED
GARMENT.
LAUNCH new IDEA CALLED AERtpLANE'
The Spring of 1911 VIII See a Return
to Grace and Freedom Of Move
ment for Women of This
Country.

Chicago, Ill. The hobble skirt,
after having caused heart pangs for
more than a year, stood trial here
before jury of critical sharp eyed
manufacturers and lost. The ghost Of
the abbreviated garment must take
its place with the skeleton of the hoop
skirt and the hustle.
1t was at the first session of the
National Association of Cloak and
Suit Makers of North America, who
are holding their annual convention
at the LaSalle hotel. Here styles are
fixed. AS in place of the hobble the
equally sensational "Aeroplane" skirt
has risen. The spring of 1911 will see
return to grace and freedom Of
movement and the athletic girl with
her long swinging stride. The gar
ment manufacturers decree that the
skirt must have an unusual fullness
at the bottom. Only when seen can
it fully be appreciated. From top to
bottom it is one series of straight
lines. To find the waist is battling
mystery.
Concealed in the simple lines Of the
apparently plain skirt are innumer-
able invisible plaits and when the
wearer walks the similarity to the
aeroplane is striking evidence. Yards
of cloth spread out in every direction
in lateral planes, while the skirt itself
is sufficiently short to give an occa-
sional glimpse of dainty ankle. More
than 100 manufacturers were in at
tendance at the convention, represent
ing 80 of the largest manufacturing
concerns in the west and Canada. Of
ficers were elected as follows: Alex.
ander Printz of Cleveland, president;
]. P. Hovland, Chicago, secretary.

MINISTER is ARRESTED
PASTOR CHARGED WITH USING
MAILS TO DEFRAuD.
Clergyman Some Time Ago Bought
Out the Business Of the National
Patent Investment Co.

Chicago, Ill.-The first arrest in
Chicago in the crusade recently un-
dertaken by the United States gov
ernment to drive out of business al
legged Get rich quick" and other con-
Germs using the mails illegally came
when Rev. H G. Scotford pastor of
Hamilton Park Congregational church,
was apprehended by an agent of the
department of justice. The charge
against Rev. Mr.. Scotford is one of
using the mails to defraud. The min
sling church, some time ago brought
out the business of the National Pat
ent Investment Co. here. He has al
ways borne a spotless reputation.
According to Charles f. DeWoody,
division superintendent of the depart
ment of justice who made the raid on
Rev. Mr.. Scotford,s office, his plan of
operation was this: He would obtain
from the patent Office at Washington
list OF persons applying for patents
and also list of the persons to whom
patents had been granted. Then he
would mail in the name of the Patent
Investment Co. postal card offering
to undertake the sale of the patent
and to exploit it.
A response, it is alleged by the
government officers who have been at
work on the case for some time,
caused the minister to write the pat
entee saying that it would be neces-
sary to send $3.50, the price of a
wood cut of the invention. The gov
ernment will charge that the minister
in few cases had wood cuts made;
that in many other cases no effort
was made to engrave the cuts.

general of the Pennsylvania militia

sical disease, contracted while in COM
mand of Pennsylvania troops at the
Johnstown flood. When the old soldier
was first stricken alarmed relatives
endeavored to locate Colonel Potter's
favorite son, who had gone on his an
nual cunning expedition in the far
north. When everyone else had given
up hope of father and son greeting
one another again in this life, Colonel
Potter fingered, fighting grimly, con-
stantly calling for Wilson. At last
chance aided the work of the rela-
tives and a message intercepted the
son at Skagway, Alaska Then started
race with death.
