When the last Of the general sub

was only a few dollars short of s., 500.
Up to the hour when this report was clos

ceived. making the grand total $2,6OO5O.
All Must Be in by December 1.

Scores of letters have been received at
Fairgrounds headquarters in the Metro

kindliest feeling toward the movement to
raise the money by popular subscription
for the support Of the backgrounds
The association is now endeavoring by
every means in Its power to urge each
would-be subscriber to the fund to con-
stttute himself or herself as a committee
of one to make the personal effort neces-
sary to get his or her donation into the

T AUFMAN MILLER, ordained by
- those who ride the rods" and in
''side-door Pullmans" as The Little
Father Confessor'' of the hobo element,
visited Chief of Detectives George A.
Sheets at police headquarters last
night. He has spent fifteen years on
the road, his mission being to expound
the gospel to the army OF men pos
sessed of the wanderlust-
Miller, like the great evangelist he
processes to emulate, has no place
where he might rest his head. For the
last fifteen years his only baggage" has
been the Bible, which he has carried
through sunshine and storm. In box
cars and under water tanks Miller,
with open Bible, has preached to thou
sands of hOboes. and it is his firm belief
that hundreds Of them have been con-
verted as the result of his explanation
OF the gospel.
The little clergyman wears a beard
cut after the fashion of portraits of
Christ. and his physiognomy is striking
ly similar to that usually attributed TO
the Savior. Miller is deeply sympa-
thetic with the wanderer. and he says
that he will devote the remainder Of his
days TO reclaiming the tramp. He has
