Ing sermons ever preached In this
city. Rev. Howard preached from the
theme AN Outlook Upon Our Reason
for Gratitude" He took as his text
Luke II chapter. and seventeen verse,
Where are the Miner" The chief
points brought out in this was this
dtsfQurse were: the. facts that In the,
midst Of life and blessings, people
are 100 prone -to- forsct-tie--.direct
source of these blessings and 10 turn
away with evident upfeellng and un;
grateful hearts, He Illustrated the
fact that our National Thanksgiving
stands as memorial to the glver OF
all things, Just as certain rs the pill
lars and stones erected by Gods peo
pie OF old stood as memorial com:
memorating the direct source: from
which Is obtained oil the material
blessings OF life. Rev. Howard
brought out the fact that the day OF
Thanksgiving stands as warning
against the forgetfullness Of God and
q false security because OF our mani.
fold and material blessings and our
National strength. The speaker took
the stand that our Nation occupies a
conspicuous position in Worlds affairs
and has. had put upon It great respon,
sibllltles and because, placed In such
a position he urged the christian PEG:
plesto be faithful to the great tasks
imposed upon them and not TO prove
recreant to the trust.
The speaker was optomistic and
stated that he believed the present
year to be the greatest year In the
worlds history, but mindful this fact
heburged that the fact must not be
forgotten that, Christian patriotism
recognizes danger wherever danger
is. He made the statement that the
world has made great progress as. a
government in ways OF better. govern,
ment both National and municipal
and this fact tends to the uplft OF,
humanity and tends to show that the
world is growing better. The SER
mon was full OF thought throughout
and will long live In the minds and
hearts Of the hearers.
A good collection was taken which
was turned over to the Anti Tubercu-

COAL COMPANY
Testifies Before Congress Com

the Transaction.

WASHINGTON, May 27,-John w.
Gates, who appeared as a witness be-
fore the special House committee in
vestigating the steel trust today, de-
clared that the accumulation by the
Trust Company of America, of New
York. in 100 of great block of the
collateral of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron Company made possible the ac-
quisitlon of that company by the
United States Steel Corporation. Mr..
Gates said he regarded the transaction
as a forced sale.
The special committee of which Rep
resentative Stanley. Of Kentucky. is
chairman, had determined that an in

MISS DEvENDORF
SEEKS TO REGAIN
KIDNAPPED CHILD

Fighting to carry out an agreement
made on the death bed of her sister
Miss Elfreda f. Devendorf, of 8 May
street this city. has petitioned the
Canadian High Court at Toronto, to
gain possession of her S-year-old niece,
Mabel Seibert from the latter's father
according to word received today from
Buffalo, n. Y. The Supreme Court in
Buffalo granted an order giving the
child to Miss Devendorf last Septem-
Der, but the girl and her father, God
love c. Seibert, disappeared.
Four days before the death of Ma
bells mother, the latter induced her
husband to sign an agreement provid-
ing that the girl should be reared by
Miss Devendorf, of this city. For a
while the agreement was observed, but
in August, 1909, the child disappeared
from her relatives here and was later
located with her father in Buffalo.
Bent on regaining the child, to whom
she had become deeply attached, Miss
Devendorf followed them to Buffalo
and instituted proceedings, which re-
suited in the favorable decision for her
last fall. Then the girl and her father
dorf recently located them at Calf,
Ont, where Godlove C. Seibert was
employed in the financial department
of H. w. Gardner & Sons, owners of a
large mill and sash factory.
Miss Devendorf's latest move in her
remarkable fight was her application
for writ of habeas corpus before
Justice Clute at Toronto The motion
was put over until next Tuesday, as
the father claims the girl cannot be
brought into court as she is i'll with
measles The justice intimated that
no action would be taken before the
child was brought before him.
1t is expected that little Mabel will
be we'll in short time and then the
war for possession of her will be re-
newed between her father and aunt,
while the child looks on without the
power to object to the decision of the
court, no matter what her choice
may be.
