EASTERN MAN OBJECTS TO
PASSION PLAY PRESENTATION

LOS ANGELES, Feb. S.-[Editor

my feelings since 1 read In Mondays s
Herald the announcement of the So
called passion play. 1 am lately from
the east, and SO, perhaps, tenderfoot
to western ideas. but that Jesus Christ.
the Savior of the world, the Son Of
God, indeed God himself. should be put
upon the billboards Of theater for
the amusement or momentary spasms
of excitement is too awful to even be
given a thought by Christian people.
1t might do in "barbarous Mexico,
but in Los Angeles, thousand times
no. VIII not the Christian ministers
of this great city protest? Will not the
Christian people of this mighty city
protest to the trucking of the cross to
the footlights of the stage?
Jesus died but once; he need ole no
more for sin. What will he think of
such a scene, or the angels who wept
over the dying Christ and rejoiced over
the risen Lord say to one another
while they gaze in horror at this i'm
piety of man?
May God pity and help the ministry
of this great city if they allow this
farce to come off without protest

THOMAS is AGAIN HEARD
IN BIBLICAL DISCUSSION

LOS ANGELES. Feb. 9.-[Editor
Herald: The writer of the unsigned
commentary on Matthew "a, in Letter
Box of February 5, makes out what
seems at first glance to be a plausible
case. But he has overlooked a few
things.
To begin with, he transplants Mark
1910 and puts it in between verses 2S
and 29 of Matthew, regardless OF the
fact that the same statement was
made back in verse IA. Probably a
mistake on Matthews part The point
several correspondents have made
about the gospel first being preached
as a witness to all the world Is really
no argument at all. 1t is of no value
unless you presuppose the divinity or
Christ, and as that divinity itself is In
directly the point in dispute here the
argument has no force in this discus
sion. Christ had the same idea as to
what "all the world" was that the
others had-the countries within strik-
ing distance of the Mediterranean were
"all the world to them. Paul, who ad-
mitted that what he said was "by com
mandment" from God showed how that
was interpreted in Romans 1918: But
1 say have they not heard? Yes, verify,
their (the apostles) sound went into
all the earth, and their words into all
the world"
But where our anonymous friend
makes his fatal break is in his ex-
PLANTATION of verses 1878. He says:
1.-The fig tree representse the Roman
army. false Christs-when you see
these things know that 1t destruction
of Jerusalem) is near" And then
verse "a. He has evidently overlooked
Luke 21:31: $50 when ye see these
things know that the kingdom of God
(not the destruction Of Jerusalem Is
nigh at hand" Then read the next
verse: This generation shall not pass
till all these things be fulfilled" Not
lust some of these things, but all
false Christs, spreading of gospel over
'.all the world" destruction and tread
ing down of Jersusalem, second COM
Inc of Christ-all before the end of that
generation.
Mr.. Blank mentions verse So: But
of that day and hour knoweth no man.,
etc. Certainly not; nor did he tell
them the day and hour, but merely the
generation. IiOMAS'

YOUTH CHARGED WITH
MURDER OF YOUNG GIRL
Mary Tedder Is Beaten and Then
Suffers Sixty-five Stab
Wounds

DELAND, Fla, Feb. 13.-Irvin Hant-
chett, 16-year- white boy, was ar
rested today, charged with the murder
of Mary Tedder at Glenwood yester-
day. The girl was stabbed in sixty
five places.
The boy was from school of cor
rection in Connecticut. The girl had
been beaten about the face and
dragged 100 yards from her bicycle be-
fore being stabbed.
The sheriff got bloodhounds and fol-
lowed a trail to the orange grove of
William Woolen, where young Hant-
chett was employed. In his room were
found bloody clothing and the knife
with which it is believed the murder
was committed. He strenuously denied
that he had committed the crime.
AS soon as it was known that Hant-
chett had been arrested on a strong
chain of circumstantial evidence, ex-
citement was intense. He was taken
away in an automobile, probably to
Jacksonville.

CAMPBELL BUILDING
HIS THIRD BlPLANE
PASADENA AVIATOR SAYS 1T
WILL BE SUCCESS
Young Inventors Latest Craft Will
Be Trifle Smaller Than the
Farman and Along
Same Lines

PASADENA, Feb. BE. ]. Camp
bell of 396 North Orange Grove ave-
nue. is busily engaged outside of
working hours in the manufacturs OF
his third aeroplane. The first was
only an experiment, while the second
proved successful in that it left the
gronud, but the framework was not
strong enough to Withstand the pres
sure and the machine came to grief
upon landing.
Mr.. Campbell is confident that the
biplane now under construction will be
a success. Il will pattern after ideas
that have already been proved and add
some improvements of my own,' he
stated today. IF the Wright broth
ers are sustained in their patents they
cannot prevent me from flying for my
own pleasure, and 1 feel that l can
eventually abandon any mechanism
that conflicts with them and substl-
tute ideas of my own"
The young inventor has selected his
material piecemeal, and his biplane
when completed will be but trif1e
smaller than the Farman machines
fIown by Paulhan. He was present at
Defninguez during the entire meet and
became intimate with Curtis and 9TH
er aviators. However, he states that
his ship will be more on the order OF
the Farman design

! Mr.. Finley at Exposition.

Knoxville, Tenn, Oct g. President
w w Finley, Of the Southern Railway
Company, delivered an address here to-
day before the Southern Appalachian
Good Roads Congress, in which he
made ain earnest plea for the construc-
ton of an improved system Of highways
throughout the Southeastern States,
stressing the importance Of wagon roads
as a feature of transportation. He de-
elared that it is the farmer who is most
vitality interested in the Improvement of
the county roads, but that all are inter-
ested in the welfare of the farmer and
in making conditions in the country so
attractive as to turn the drift OF the
population back from the city to the
farms.
Road conservation war advocated by
Mr. Finley in the line of having i'm
provements made on these roads radi-
ating from market and shipping points,
which are naturally of the greatest SER
vice to the farming population The
of competent road en-
gineers by each county was recon-
mended; as was the issuance of bonds
to pay the first cost of expensive road
