itor of the New York Churchman. Fear less as a Bedouin Arab and with sym pathy as wide as mankind his voice IS heard in no uncertain accents on every occasion when zealous workers in the cause for uniting the separated brethern of Christ are assembled together. The Laymens Movement, mention Of which has been so frequently made in these let ters, has no more enthusiastic advocate than Silas Melee. He was a speaker at all the great conventions of the move ment until the cause demanded his pres ence in Europe. Of his reception in Eng land the New York Evening Post speaks as follows: At a recent meeting of churchmen. representing all denomina- tions, for the purpose of discussing prep arations for the Worlds Missionary con- ference to be held in Edinburgh in June' there was passed a vote of thanks to the American commission for sending Silas Melee to Europe Meetings and confer ences have been held daily and MT. Mo- Bee has had an opportunity of explain- ing to English churchmen the views Of Americans on matters to be discussed at the conference. The commission on the subject of 'co-operation and the pro- motion of unity has held several meet fngs, and arising out of these, both the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of London have invited MT. McBee to meet at their palaces leading churchmen. and discuss with them the prop sed work of the conference"
 One of the men who expect to see the world all brought to knowledge of Christ within this generation is the Rev. Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, often spoken of as the leading evangelist of the age. Dr. Chapman has just returned to America from a tour which has taken In Australia and the Orient. At one time and another the great preacher has car ried the "good tidings of great joy" to nearly every nation on earth, and as one listens to his optimistic addresses one ca neasily see one reason, at least, tor the great and good mans phenomenal success. He is at the present time be- ginning a religious campaign in Maine and expects in the course of the next few months to cover all the principal cities and towns in that state. He has said recently: "If I live five years, and I hope to live that long. I am sure that shall see China a Christian na- ton, Japan under the control of the cross of Christ, Corea a distinctively Christian country and America is in the midst of a great religious revival To Dr. Chapman, inaugurating a world wide campaign seems just as easy as to run a local revival in Boston or New York.

Secretary Wilson's Views.

Washington, January 23.-Undoubted- ly if the farmers were raising more meat the price would be rcduced,' said Secre- tary Wilson of the department of agri- culture today in commenting on the widespread boycott against meat. There is not enough meat upon the farm and too many people are going to the towns to be fed. Three quarters of a million people, he said, are coming to the United States annually from abroad. They do not go to the farms where they might help raise food for the nation. Farm CTS cannot get help. They go to the cities and they have to be fed. The cities produce nothing to eat, although they do produce something to drink.
 Have you any plan for inducing peo- pie to go to the farms where they may help to raise foods?'' the secretary was asked.
 Jim Hill says they will go there when they get hungry" said the secretary af- ter shaking his head in reply to the question.

League Is Getting Busy.

Omaha, January 23.-(SpeciaL )-The Anti-Meat- Eating league is making it. self felt- in this city, both among re- tail butchers, where prices took a fall yesterday. and among the live stock dealers, who are fearful that the cur tailment in the sale of meats throughout the country will cause the packers to purchase less live stock and a slump in the price of cattle, hogs and sheep will result. The demand for meats in the Omaha retail shops was less today than probably on any Saturday in the city's history and as night drew near the prices dropped from 10 to 20 per cent with no demand.
 Nine hundred members of the Carpeu- ters union today joined the Anti-Mear- Eating association and the gain in mem bership in 24 hours is reckoned at 5000.
 The commission firms at different west ern packing centers today gent notes to shippers to hold back shipments of live stock until the extent of the anti meat-eating movement became known

New Park Certain

Watertown is to have a new pleas
ure park. Action along this line was
taken at meeting of the park com
missioners last evening when it was
decided. to ask for bids for laying out
the same, the bids to be received by
the board up to May %. The proposed
park will be known as Riverside park
and will be located on an island in
what is now known as Riverside ad-
ditiOn, formerly the S. Kussel proper
ty in the Sixth ward. This matter was
taken up last year and will be pushed
to completion the present summer by
the board of park commissioners.
In connection with the park it is
planned to build a river drive con-
Meeting this pleasure ground with 9th
er portions of the city, ending in the
Third ward along the newly plated
Crangle addition. One of the features
of the proposed park will be rustic
bridge connecting the island with the
mainland proper, and bathing
beach with dressing rooms will also
be features which will appeal to all
especially the children.

Lively Runaway

A team of horses belonging to the
Seefeldt store at Hustisford and
driven by Charles Cruel, took lively
spin this morning and the driver mar
rowly escaped serious injury if not
death. The team became frightened
while in front of the Fischer store in
West Main street and ran east. Mr..
Cruel attempted to check them but
was unable to do so. Near the Bank
of Watertown they ran onto the side
walk, throwing the driver out onto
the walk. The team then rounded
the corner between a telephone pole
and the bank, dragging Mr.. Cruel with
them as he pluckily held onto the rib
bons for a short distance when he
was compelled to let go. The team
ran north and stopped at the corner
