TIE change that has come over pub

remarkable. and its genesis was due
to the fact that. true to his character
istics, the man in the street" had
misunderstood the purpose Of the
army.
Founder Of Army.
Az q mere boy William Booth was
converted" and created a great dis
turbance in the Methodist chapel he
attended by bringing some of the rif1-
ran of the town to the services. He
became a local preacher, then an
evangelist. and finally, with his able
and devoted wife. cut loose from all
church organizations, founded his own
East London Revival mission. which
ultimately developed into the Saliva
ton Army.
The crisis Of William Booths life
came In the late SOS and the manner
in which he grappled with 1t shows
the genius Of the man-rather he
would call 1t the inspiration of the
no Spirit. Indeed, there was a mo-
mer when the drum beating had done
its work, when the crude phrases and
hysterical shriekings had found their
level, when, in short. the Salvation
Army's work seemed done. Without
William Booth at that moment the
army would have faded away into the
dim procession Of religious ripples on
the surface of life. But here came in
the genius Of the general.
Undoubtedly. General Booth has sue
ceeded in making a deep impression
upon men Of his own generation. Be
ing q man always on the alert for
ideas, he saw that the man who is
saved" In a hysterical moment is not
safe; that whatever may be the driv-
ing power of the Gospel there is the
stomach and even the surroundings to
consider; that II you set a mans foot
on the lowest step Of the ladder to
God" he wants a shove to aid him up
the next step. We can easily imagine
the searchings Of heart Of that willy
tactician when he saw that the drums
and the shrieking led only to the first
step.
An English Institution.
Moreover, the general earned his
title by the splendid flank movement
upon humanity when he determined
that the sinner with his foot on the
bottom rung must Be helped up the
ladder to God, and to have seen at the
crucial moment the danger. to have
w,ftten and published In Darkest

real triumph Of the general. for he

has saved many other people. Az q

penitentiary October 10, 1906, to serve
twenty years for murder and who was
sent to the government asylum for
criminal insane. June 10. last, has re-
covered his sanity and wants his free

Ledger had a gold claim in the wilds
of Alaska and was working it. with
good prospects of reaping a fortune,
when five claim jumpers appeared and
tried to dispossess him. While defend

and wounded the three others. For
this he was arrested and tried in the
Alaska courts and given a sentence Of

Buffalo, n. Y. April Am echo of
the famous Incubator Baby case
which attracted wide attention in Kan
sas recently was heard in court here
when the case of the Pinkerton detec-
tive agency against Mrs. Stella Barclay
came up for trial.
The Pinkertons are suing Mrs. Bar
clay for balance alleged to be due on
their bill for services rendered in recov
ering the baby after it had been kid
naped by its mother.
Mrs. Barclay is the foster mother of
the child She was given possession of
the baby the year of the worlds fair at
ST. Louis, where the baby was on exhi
bition in an incubator. Mrs. Bleakley,
the child's mother, signed away her
rights to the child, believing it was an
other baby on exhibition at the same
time.
One of the babies died and she was
told it was her own. Afterward she be-
came convinced that the living child
was her own, and through a court or
der in Illinois got possession of the
baby.
Then followed a long legal battle that
extended to the courts of Kansas.
Through the aid of the Pinkertons Mrs.
Barclay located the baby in Topeka
and is alleged to have gone there and
kidnapped the infant, as a result of
which she and one of the detectives

OLD TIME MAJORITY.
Michigan Elects Republican Ticket
Socialist Mayor in Flint.

Detroit. Mich, April calhoun
and Genesee counties changed from
dry to wet by today's election and
Losco and Montcalm shifted from
wet to dry" thus each side gained
two new counties in the closest fight
that has been waged in Michigan since
the local option contests began. But
the VETS are jubilant over gaining
in Battle Creek and Flint, which are
contained in the two counties cap
tured by the "wets" from their OPP
ponents-
The Republican ticket was elected
by safe majority and Flint elected a
Socialist mayor, John A. c. Mention,
winning by q plurality of 400 to 500
over Edwin T. Atwood, Republican.
1t is difficult to estimate the major
ity given the Republican state ticket.
In counties where a local option fight
brought out the voters the majorities
ran up toward those of four years
ago, when the total was more than
100000. But in many counties the
vote was so light as to indicate that
the total majority for the ticket might
fall below the normal Republican ma
jority of 10000 to $4,000

VANDALS AT WORK.
Attempt to Wreck Unfinished City Hall
at Springfield, Mass.

Springf1eld. Mass, April 4.-Several
thousand dollars worth of damage
was done early today to Springfeld's
new million dollar municipal building,
now in process of construction. by an
explosion, which wrecked the base of
the 300-foot clock tower and shook
the city for a radius of several blocks
Two explosions, one following di-
rectly after the other, were heard by
the officers on duty in the police sta
ton adjoining the tower. The windows
in the police offices were smashed by
the conclusion.
The nature of explosion, indicates in
minds of the police that dynamite was
used, and that it was a deliberate at
tempt to wreck the tower. No one was
injured, the Waterman, the only man
on the premises at the time being in a
distant part of the building.
There have been no recent labor
troubles, the only trouble of that kind
being nearly a year ago, soon after the
building was started, and that of only
minor consequences. Some time ago,
an italian workman fell from the tow
er and was killed, after which several
fellow countrymen threw up their
places, but there was no trouble at that
time.
The new municipal group of buildings

attorney general. he was sent to the
asylum at Washington. DIR. William
A. White, superintendent of the insti-
tuition, has pronounced the man cured
and has asked that he be paroled and

1t is hardly probable that the SUI

as Ledger was, originally, a prisoner
of the department of justice, while the
asylum for criminal insane is under
the Jurisdiction of the department of
the interior. 1t is believed that the
man will be returned to this prison to
complete his sentence, or for such ac-

in his case. In the struggle for pos
