While the police of the world for
16 months had been searching for
Martin j. Walsh, indicted for his part
in wrecking the National City Bank
at Cambridge, Mass, the supposed
fugitive had been living quietly in
New York city, where death came to
him Sunday, transferring him from
the threatened bondage of earth to
the certain bondage of the grave. At
various times Walsh was reported at
different places, from the cities of
South America to the far east, and
submarine wires were kept hot trans
hitting messages for his capture. He
cheated justice, but could not evade
death, the conquerer of all.
Walsh was one of four men-pro-

His arrest was made on a writ in a
civil suit brought by Mrs. Florence
N. Whitaker, wife of Que of the Holy
Ghost and Us leaders, who alleges
she was illegally detained on board
the Kingdom, formerly one of the

When Sanford was brought ashore
from the Coronet, which swings at

arrested, the Rev. A. A. Whitaker.
The latter wished to assist in arrang-

1t is no secret that Chairman Hill

MILLIONS ARE INTERESTED

Secretary Rood Explains Work That
Is Being Done and Success Made
in Taking the Church to Men. De-
MES Morgan Is Back of 1t.
NEW YORK.-"We are succeed
ing in getting christianity out of cold
storage; the men and religion for
ward movement is sweeping the
country. Results so far have been
highly satisfactory.
This is the gist of a state
made here today by Henry Rood,
publicity secretary of the men and
religion movement, which was re-
Gently launched in Minneapolis,
South Bend, Grand Rapids and De-
troit, and which will be CARRIED
through seVenty-six cities in this
countrys and Canada between now
and next May.
According to Mr.. Rood, who has
just returned from the west, there
are interested in the movement, as
nearly as can be estimated, between
five and six million men and boys, a
larger number than have ever taken
part in any one other effort OF the
kind since the crusades of the Middle
Ages, with the single exception of the
Reformation
THE men and religion forward
movement is taking the church to
the men wherever the man can be
found. In addition to sane, logical
evangelistic work, wherein there is
no note of excitement or fanaticism,
special efforts are being made to
help parents guide and protect their
boys during the critical years of ado
lescence, teaching these developing
lads how to build up strong bodies
and clean minds, how to nerve them

Foot OF Water in Cabin.
Not sail of her original suit of
canvas was left whole, and there was
foot of water in the cabin when the
Coronet entered the harbor and
dropped anchor. Her flying lib
boom, both her jibs and foresail were
carried away in recent storms and
her mainsail was split to ribbons.
The pumps were being worked con-
tinually.
In the vessels larder there was not
loaf of bread and no fresh meat had
passed the lips of any of the relig-
ious seafarers for many days. Both
crew and passengers were nearly ex-
hausted.

had struggled her way up the coast,
but never once did her commander
ask aid, his only requests from pass
ing vessels being for food for his
crew and passengers. She was last
reported September 81, when sighted
on Cape Sable by the steamer Lap
land, flying signals which indicated
that she was short of provisions. The
Lapland sent relief and then pro-
ceeded. For the last week the craft
has been beating her way along the
coast, the crew despairing of her
ability to reach port. On board were
fifty-five people, including the Rev.
Sanford, his wife and five children.
Women at the Pumps.
For seven days the men and wo-
men had been working necessarily in
reliefs at the pumps. This has re-
duced the strongest men to mere
skeletons.
While they worked at the pumps
men and women prayed necessarily.
In the storm every small boat was
smashed to kindling wood and if the
yacht had foundered the Shilohites
would all have persisted without a
chance to save themselves other than
by clinging to broken spars and
wreckage.
The Coronet, which more than 20
years ago defeated the schooner
Dauntless in a race from Sandy Hook
to Queenstown, has been battered by
many distant seas since she left
Portland in 1910. The sailingmas-
ter, H. F. Witham, said that they had
been to the Holy Land, but had
spent much time in the tropics,
spreading the faith of their sect.
Members of the Sanford party are
expected to come ashore from the
Coronet tomorrow. According to
present plans they will proceed at
once to Shiloh to join the Sanford
colony.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The house
wife who complains about the high
cost of living isn't having half as
much trouble as Uncle Sam. Aud
itors in the treasury department
were astonished recently when they
came across a voucher from the de-
partment of agriculture reading as
follows:
One thousand eggs, $500"
Controller of the Treasury Trace
we'll comes from a farming commu~
nifty in Indiana, and because of his
knowledge of agricultural affairs and
also because he is charged with the
duty of seeing that the officials of
the government do not waste public
FUNDS he was asked whether the
voucher would go through without
protest. Four hundred dollars for
one thousand eggs, or eggs a the
raw state at 40 cents each, id not
look like a good proposition to Mr..
Tracewell, and he started an investi-
cation.
The agricultural department in
formed the controller that it realized
it was probably setting a new price
for eggs, but it couldn't be helped.
They must have the eggs, and they
could not get them for less than 40
cents each. Further inquiry by the
controller disclosed the fact that the
department has gone into the chick
en- raising business. 1t has establish
ed big chicken farm at Beltsville.
Md. Model buildings and every
known contrivance to add to the
health, comfort and productivity of
chickens have been erected. When
the buildings were ready department
experts went out in search of eggs
and thoroughbred chickens. They
gathered eggs of barred Plymouth
Rocks, white wyandottes, Rhode Is
lands (single comb, and other high
bred chickens.
The chicken experts at the depart
ment say that the money will be well
expended if their experiments prove
successful. Chicken farming is a
growing industry, they say, and the
department is constantly in receipt
of requests for information as to the
best methods to be used on such
farms.
When the thousand eggs have been
transformed into several hundred lit
tie chicks the department will begin
experimenting. 1t is announced that
the experts will not try to fix stand
ard of feeding, because of varying
conditions throughout the country,
but will devote their energies to
cross breeding, which will do it's
share toward lowering the cost of
living by the number of eggs it pro-
duces each day.
