England,s Experience.

"At one time there was a great finan-
cial crisis in England. 1t was decided
to withdraw the protectorate from the
missionaries in the Uganda because of
the financial stringency. The mission
aries succeeded in procuring enough
money to keep UP the prOtectOrate and
preserve one of the best fields of com
merce to the world. A railroad 5S4
miles in length, one which crosses
deep gulches and high mountains. one
which required ali of the skill and in
genuity of the engineers in the build
ing, has been built in the province and
the great lake regions of the continent
have been opened. IN 1903 the latest
statistics which can be secured, the
commerce amounted 10 250,000.0OO.
The coffee plant. taken there from
Scotland, now produces some of the
best coffee in the world.
You people here know that this is
a good business investment, for things
from here. such as Rock Island plOws.
are used in these dark corners Of the
world Since the coming of the mis-
sionary to the Fiji, Hawaiian and 9th
er islands of the sea, commerce has
greatly increased there. But 1t is not
alone the business man who owes a
great debt in this connection. The
missionaries also owe great debt to
the man whose money, whose science
and industry has enabled them to open
up this great field of labor and com
merCe. To the business man for his
money, for his ships which carry them
possible and for his products, the mis-.
sionarics are grateful. The two go
hand in hand in carrying out the
greatest work of civilization and of
the gospel. The missions pay back to
the business man more than an hun
dred fold

A WEAK WOMAN
and Her STORY
In Floral, Ark, Lives a Lady Who
Feels That Her Strength Was
Restored by Cardui.

Floral, Ark.-'I must speak good
word for Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola
Baker, of this place.
"About month ago was in very bad
health. was so weak and nervous thai
was not able to do my homework.
"My husband bought me one bottle OF
Cardui, the Woman'S tonic. ! took 1t &C
cording to directions and now am in
good health.
81 think Cardui is fine tonic for weak
women"
And you are not the only lady who
thinks so, Mrs. Baker.
Thousands, like you, have written tc
tell OF the wonderful benefit Cardui has
been to them.
Cardui contains no minerals, or other
powerful drugs. II contains no glycerin
or other mawkish- tasting ingredients.
II Is Just a pure, natural extract, of
natural vegetable herbs, that have been
found to regulate the womanly functions
and strengthen the female system.
All druggists sell Cardui.

Last evening at the meeting Of the
Mems club of Broadway Presbyterian
church, held in the Sunday school
! room Of the church, Rev. o. w. Law
renee Of Decatur, former pastor of the
Memorial Christian church here, de
lighted his auditors with an interest
ing and instructive address on the
subject of Missions From a CONNER
cial Standpoint"
The committee in charge served
supper at $3.50 and instrumental mu-
sic was provided by Mrs. Florence
Freistat Lee, Miss Bessie Freistat, and
Frank Freistat. The players respond
ed to many encores. A. d. Sperry,
president of the club, presided.
''The missionaries today. are one Of
the greatest factors, and ever have
been, in opening the channels of COM
merce and trade in the world" Mr..
Lawrence said. By their example they
create in the heather and savage a de
sire for things which they never be-
fore wanted, and so make a new mar
ket for trade.
Subject Little UnderStood.
From a commercial standpoint, the
subject of missions is little known and
little discussed. I have found in look
ing up this subject that few writer's
dwell upon this phase of the question
and it is a field of immense breadth.
1t is a subject of exceeding interest.
The value Of foreign missions to the
commercial world cannot be estimated
and on the other hand the value OF
the business man to the missionary
cannot be estimated.
81 will speak upon one phase of the
subject this evening. and that is the
value of the missionary in promoting

BOYS LEARN OF
CITY SCOUT PLAN
Five Patrol Leaders Attend
Meeting Held Today at
Y. M. g. A.
MORE MASTERS NEEDED
Men Interested in Movement Are In
yited to Send in Their Names
To Hear Address on Honor"

A meeting was held at the Y. M. C..
A. this morning for the purpose of ex-
planning TO the boys who are interest
ed in the scout movement the details
of the organization A good company
of boys attended. and listened with in
terest to talks by H. B. Hayden, F. w.
Walsh and Secretary r. C. Smedley.
Five patrol leaders were present, who
reported on the work that their pa
trolls have undertaken.
The whole working of the scout
movement was explained, so that 9TH
| er boys, who have not yet enrolled
will understand how to do so. 1t is
necessary for any group of boys who
wish to become scouts to get togeth-
er and put themselves under the lead
ership of a scout master who will in
struct them and later on when they
are prepared, will swear them in.
! Patrols Must Register.
Secretary Smedley will keep the list
| of scouts in his office, and all patrols
must be registered with him before
they can receive badges, or be recog-
nized as scouts. Any group Of boys
~ years of age or over may enroll
and enter upon the studies connected
with the work.
More men to act as scoutmasters
are urgently needed. 1t is necessary
to have enough to take charge of the
groups OF boys in order to safeguard
against the dangers that are liable to
creep into the organization If not fully
supervised. Men who are willing to
do such work should let 1t be known
promptly in order that they may be
commissioned and put to work.
Talk on Scouts Honor.
! The boys at the Y. M. c. A. tomor'
row will hear a talk by 8. W. Searle
on the subject "a Scouts Honor" His
talk will deal with the points of the
scout law which a boy needs TO know
and observe in everyday life. The
meeting begins at 2:30 and. is open
to all boys.

trade. Every business man knows
that before he can have a mart for his
goods that desire must be created
to enable him to succeed in selling his
goods. If the want is made his bust
ness will be good. The greatest men
to create this field of want and desires
are the missionaries. And it Is not
the work of the missionary to do this,
but nevertheless it is the truth. You
have all heard how the savage man
lives and how the heather lives. They
are satisfied with very little dress, and
few of the other things which we find
so necessary. The savage is a man
who produces nothing and consumes
practically nothing. BY his example
the missionary, in living as he does at
home, in a house with windows and
framework, creates a desire for these
things and in so doing makes him a
commercial factor.
SO Expended In Year.
I'm one community, where a mis-
sionary was stationed, the whole popu-
lation did not use the equivalent of $40
of English money per year. Shortly
after the arrival of the missionary
harbors were opened up, the people
desired to possess, and so trade was
stimulated After their conversion,
more than an average of 500 was ex-
pended by each person per year for
imports. And so you see that the
greatest factor in opening up new
field of trade is the missionary.
or Was in 1877 that David Living
stone, the great English explorer, left
his home land to explore the dark con-
tinent In an address before the stu
dent body of Oxford, he said that he
was going to this field to open it up
to commerce and to Christianity. He
little realized how much truth there
was in this statement. After the open
ing up of the continent the MISSION
aries followed the line of the Congo
river. In this river, several hundred
miles from the ocean, there is a rap
ids, and so navigation for a time was
stopped. Above the rapids there is l.
100 miles of navigable water. In 1884
boat was taken to this river, was
| taken apart when it reached the I'M
! passable part, and was transported on
the heads of natives for 200 miles. 1t
was then put together again by great
labor and then placed into service in
the upper Congo waters, and now
there are so of these ships plying the
upper portion of the river. BY this
the interior of Africa was opened TO
trade In 1908 the imports were So
100000 and the exports were $4,000

HARb0R
SEES FINE
BALL GAME
Especial to THE TIMEs)

Indiana Harbor. Ind. Aug. 1.-The
best game of ball played in Indiana
Harbor this season took place yester-
day between the local team and the
Lorraine Athletic club of Chicago. Croak
shut the visitors out with score of
to 0, allowing them but four hits
twenty EIGHT batters facing the south
winged twirler and only one of these
reaching second in safety. Every man
who tried to steal second was nailed
by Jimmy Calvin, who caught a per-
feet game The Harbors made their
first run in the opening inning Riley
was passed and forced at second by
Stern erg's rap to third Baseman Shee-
han. Matt stole and was sacrificed TO
third by Ryrnal and scored on Croak's
nice single to left Hitler struck out.
Howard for the visitors opened the
second with a hot liner to Croak, who
knocked the ball down and then by
splendid recovery got his man at first,
the next two going out in order In
the locals half of this inning the Chi
agoans pulled off a nice double play.
Mcclure hit safely past third but
Saunders sent a hot one to short and
Howard by a fine stop got Mcclure at
second, and a good peg to first by
Castleman nipped Saunders ambitions
IN the Dud and completed the double
play. Thomas singled to left and Gal
vim did the same, but Riley popped up
a high foul near the grand stand which
was taken in camp by Catcher Masten
after a hard run. There was nothing
doing after that until the sixth
Croak opened the ball with a hot liner
over the center fielders head for two
bases and scored when Hitler sent one
| to short stop. who fumbled and then
| threw wild to third. In the eighth
Croak made his third hit of the day
With the exception of the tumble by
Howard the game was perfectly play
ed Sullivan pitched a good game for
the Loraines and made quite IAN i'm
preston on the local fans.
| Next Sunday the Indiana Harbors
will play Gary at Tolleston and the
following Sunday Gary will come to
the Harbor for a return game These
two teams are probably the best in

them should be hummers

SIX GARY COPS
ARE LET out
Shakeup in Gary's Police Depart
ment Stirs the City: One Captain
and Five PatrOImen Leave

them they refuse to put up with New
mans methods any longer
The trouble started last Saturday af-
ternoon about FIVE o'clock in a star
chamber session between Chief Martin
and Captain Catey. Catey is said to
have taken revolver from foreigner
some time ago which he did not turn
in because he was away on his
ton Last Saturday Chief Martin de-
manded the gun which was refused by
the captain. A heated argument fol-
lowed in which Catey is said to have
made a statement that he refused to
be dictated to by Captain Newman any
longer
Chief Martin then said that Catey
would have to obey orders or he
would be suspended.
MUST ORGY ORDERS.
Catey then handed in his star and
club and said that the rest of his police
effects would follow later. When the
rest of the officers who were in the
station at the time learned of the trou-
BILE they handed in their stars to make
Catey's bluff good. thinking that Chief
Martin would be stunned" on the spot
But Chief Martin collected the tin
stars and said they would reserve their
checks from the city treasurer within
a few days.
On account of the police department
being short handed yesterday Mayor T.
F. Knots took off his coat and acted
as desk sergeant the entire day until
nine o'clock last night He assisted in
the booking OF prisoners and all the
rest of the regular duties of the desk
sergeant. Mayor Knots is fully
cognizant of the facts concerning the
discharge or let out of the six officers
last Saturday and he has put his stamp
of approval Chief Martins dismiss
sal OF the officers.
You are Chief of Police OF Gary. I"
Mayor Knots is said to have told Chief
Martin, and If your officers do not. see
nit to obey orders why It is your place
to discharge them"
New officers to take the place Of
the discharged officers will be appoint
ed today by the mayor. It is said that
both former Captain Catey and Officer
Juric will engage in the saloon bust
ness on the south side as also will L. A.
Titus.
