QUESTION OF. CAPITAL AMI.
LABOR IN suNDAY NIGHT
SERMON.

Tho present pron,insher Of labor
troubles. made Especially important
ut this time through the confessions
of tie McNanara brothers. in Cali
fornia offered a subject Of interest
ing discussion on the part of Rev.
'W.,M. MAR, pastor of the C%ongrega-
tional church Sunday evening and
which WAS listened II by Il good au-
dience, the members of. which fol-
lowed him closely through presenta-
ticn of the troubles which arise be-
tween capital and labor
For the foundation of his SER
mon MIR. MAR referred to 1 samue.s
and the 25th chapter, which he
between capital and labor, and
which has never ended to this day.
The srhapte: told the story of David
and Nabal, when the former demand
ed II recompnnse for the protection
of his tlocks during the summer sea-
son. When Nnhal refused David
took his men and Went to force the
payment. The chapter reveals the

u4ake settlement, with Impending
DANCE, it was Abigail, his wife, who
settled the fret ilouble between
capital and labor when she. present.
ed to David what he demanded.
Mr.. Mair said that there was n
struggle on between: capital and la
Dor. That for capital to have alb
solute control and be in full ascend

rle pastor said there were sev-
eral, distinct reasons for the dis
agreement between capital and la
Dor. When The bodies come in eon-
ftict It is evident that labor is grow
ing, that it Is learning something or
it would not rave the courage to ST.
tack its other part. II labo. va TO

In closing Mr.. MAR told wiat the.
church said to capital; that it is.
grinding the faces Of tho. poor until
the look OF want appears in strong
lines. The. church criticiscs capital.
tor the poor wages paid the thou
sands Of girls In the department
stores, and wherever else they work
i'll this country. The church says
to capital to give labor more OF the
wealth that labor is building up for
capital; to quit Mostituting legisla-
lures and to. quit raising the prices
OF the things on which labor must
subsist. Christianity, Mr.. MAR said,
wants to see labor and capital walk
in the ways of harmony and peace,
and he invoked the divine spirit of
the Christ, who himself was a la
borer in the days OF his youth.

DEPLOREs BIRD SLAUGHTER.
g. o. Shields Says II 10 lmperilIina
Forests OF the Country.

"The Wholesale slaughter of insec-
tiverous birds Is imperilling the for
ests of the United States" declared
G.. o. Shields. of New York, president
of the League OF American Sports
men, in an address before the Boost
ers' club Of the Y. M. @. A, Thurs
day night. Thousands Of birds, the
deadly foes OF the insects that are de-
stroying trees, have been killed wan
tonly by careless hunters. until today
the damage by the insects is so APP
palling that we are face to face with
grave problem"
Mr.. Shields hoped the day would
come when the woman who wears
feathers of birds cruelty slaughtered
by the "unbridled army of hunters"
would be looked upon as a violator
of the law of God and the country.
He said there were only two species
OF hawk and three species of owls
that ever kill chickens, and then only
at great intervals. In the meantime
they wage war on rats, moles, goph-
ers and other creatures that destroy
the crops and trees.
Mr.. Shields devoted the remainder
OF his talk to the big game Of the
country. His lecture was illustrated.

MEMBERS OF NATIONAL
HOUSE IN FIST FIGHT
Delegate Wickersham Starts Out to
WaIIop Rep. MondeiI, But
Others Interfere

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Another
bloodless battle was fought on the
floor of the house Of representatives
late yesterday. II came during a
somewhat heated debate on a bill for
the leasing OF coal lands in Alaska.
The lie was passed and as the short
and ugly word rang out Delegate
James Wickersham, of Alaska, made
q rush for Representative Frank w.
Mondell, OF Wyoming, who was seat
ed at a nearby desk.
The big Alaskan's right arm shot
out twice in the direction OF the gen.
tleman from Wyoming, but members
who surrounded the disputants at the
time say that both blows fell just
short.
The house was in an uproar in an
instant. Several members hurled
themselves on Mr.. Wickersham. 9TH
ers were struggling with Mr.. Mondell,
who ha6 gained his feet and was
making for his assailant.
Representative Foster, OF Vermont,
had taken Mr.. Wickersham by the
throat. This added to the uncontroll-
ed anger of the delegate and for a
moment diverted his attack toward
the would-be peacemaker.
When the house was fairly quiet,
Mr.. wickersham clamored for recog-
milton.
1T want the Record to show that I
apologize to the house. but" his voice
rose to shout-"T also want 1t to
show that was called liar"
Mr.. Mondell explained he had said
that nothing In the record showed
any coal claims in Alaska outside Of
the Cunningham group TO have gone
to final entry and his remarks were
not directed toward Wickersham, but
to a representative who sat beside
him. Both Mondell and Wickersham
then made .profuse apologies, and the
Alaska leasing bill was later defeated,
ISL to 80.

SO interesting are the proceedings
In connection with the efforts to get
jury to sit In the second trial OF
DIR. G. X. Boyajian. who shot and
killed his nephew. Hartoon Gostanian.
that talesmen drop on to sleep while
waiting In the court room to be called
into service. One snored loudly while
other members OF the panel were be-
ing examined in Judge Connolly's
court. Thursday afternoon. Finally
his name was called out, and he was
awakened.
Attorney Orm0nd II. Hunt. who,
with Frank +. Bumps. is defending the
doctor, Is careful to ask each juror II
he Is married, how many children he
has, and. how old they are; whether
he belongs to fraternal society;
what acquaintance he has with those
connected with the case; whether he
has ever applied to be appointed a
patrolman, and, finally. whether he
would have any prejudice against the
INTRODUCTION of evidence to show that
the defendant was insane at the time
of the tragedy.
Mr.. Hunt strongly. intimates that
the defense may set up q. plea OF in
sanity. To each talesman called he
propounds the following question:
''If the defense should interpose in
sanity as a defense. would you regard
1t with the same degree Of favor az
you would other evidence brought
out?"
Most talesmen answer in the affirm
alive.
The defense apparently wants only
married men with children on the
jury, and II trying to avoid accepting
anyone who has any particular sym.
patty for the police department.
One of the most intelligent, clean
cut talesmen called Thursday after
noon was Howard B. Anthony. He
to be free from prejudice
of any kind and looked like GER
tainty for the jury. when. suddenly.
Mr.. Hunt asked him IL he belonged
to fraternal order. He said he did.
Mr.. Hunt asked that the talesman be
excused from service. The court
Prosecuting Attorney Van Zile az
terward told The Times representa-
tive that Mr. Anthony was undoubted-
ly dropped because he Is member
of Damascus commandery OF the Ma
sonic fraternity, with which the pros
ecutor Is prominently connected.

PROCTOR OWENS
.H|TsAT OPPONENTS
Candidate for Bench Pays Respects
To Judge Rohnert, Prosecutor Van
Zile and g. p. Codd.

Proctor X. Owens, late Republican
candidate for mayor. and who il now
seeking a place on the circuit bench.
still as Republican, addressed a
rather slim crowd In the Light Infan-
try armory, Thursday evening. There
might have been more but for a mis-
taken impression that the meeting
was to be held In the Light Guard
armory.
Mr.. Owens read his address. In
his Introductory remarks he referred
briefly to his good showing against
William b. Thompson last fall. In the
race for the mayoralty. Next he dis
cussed his platform. plank by plank,
and then launched into an attack on
several of the other Republican can
didates for judicial honors. devoting
his attention particularly to George
p. Codd, Prosecutor Van Zile and
Judge Rohnert. He declared that the
right of trial by jury had been usurped
in numerous instances in the local
courts.
With respect to George Codd. Mr..
Owens said: II say that believe in
a square deal to all and special favors
to none; a government of the people
for the people and by the people. as
against machine rule. Does George
p. Colds record as mayor give you
any reason to believe that, IL elected
a Judge, he will carry out a govern
ment Of the people, for the people and
by the people. and that he will op-
pose machine ruler"
Owens referred to the fact that
Prosecutor Van Zile had appointed his
son to a $4,000 job in the prosecutors
office, thereby obtaining to his fam
lily $500 year from the county OF
Wayne" He said that Judge Rohnert,
while acting as Juvenile Judge from
July %. 1907. to Aug. 81, 1909. re-
ceiyed $4,000 in addition to his salary
of $4,000 year as circuit Judge. BY
way OF contrast he showed, by the
court records, that Judge Hosmer had
refused to accept check for his ser
vices when he acted as Juvenile Judge
for nine days during 1909.
