MEN AND RELIGION MOVEMENT
Meetings Now Being Held At Ro.
chester Under Guidance of South
Bend Ministers Father
Howard Speaks.

The "Men and Religion Forward
Movement" is the chief interest the
last part of this week il our sister
city of Rochester. Father w. s.
Howard, formerly rector Of St.
Thomas church in Plymouth, and
attorney C. P. Du Comb, both of
South Bend, were the speakers at
the first meeting held last night.
This meeting was a banquet at
which 200 men from all the churches
Of Rochester sat In harmonious agree
ment on the movement. Mr.. Howard,
who was the chief speaker. said the
Men and Religion Forward Move
ment was needed because not half
of the people are members of any
church. There has been a slowing
down in the growth of many of the
churches, and the cause of this he
believed was the divisions that exist
between the churches. To remedy
these conditions, there were five
principal things that all the churches
could agree upon, he said. These
were IL Insistence upon reading OF
the Bible and daily prayer; (2)
Personal evangelism, being the work
of each member to bring others int
the church and to a belief in and
following of the teachings of Christ
(3) Work among the boys by the
best known and used methods of In
teresting them In the work of the
church; az By all that is known by
the words "social service;" (5) By
missions, whereby all the world may
be taught the truths of the Bible as
Christ commanded in his last mes
sage while on earth.
On these five important points,
said the preacher, all the churches
can unite and should unite for better
work. He believes that the Men and
Religion Movement is the most i'm
rortant since Pentecost. The Ro-
chester meeting will continue today,
tomorrow and Sunday. Rev. Mr..
Decker, pastor of the South Bend
Baptist church and Rev. Mr.. Ormond
of Mishawaka are both there to
assist in the work.

MAN FATALLY BURNED.
Building Fires With Coal Oil Claims
Another Victim.

John Hand, section foreman on
the Chicago & Erie Railroad at De-
Long, while kindling fire Saturday
morning, used coal oil with probably
fatal results. Of course he supposed
the fire was dead, but there must
have been live Goals, for the can of
oil exploded and was thrown all over
him. His clothing was set fire, and
the crazed man rushed to the house
of a neighbor with flames enveloping
him. The fire was extinguished as
quickly as possible, but the flames
had gained such Roadway that the
poor man is not expected to live.
Mr.. Overmyer of this city is well
acquainted with Mr.. Hand and his
family, and says he is prominent
member of the Methodist church at
belong, and we'll respected citi-
zen.
We build fires with coal oil, be-
cause it hurries up the matter, and
our neighbors and others do so. Is
this accident shall cause even one
person to take q little time to pre-
pare suitable kindling wood, and
build his fires without the danger
attending coal oil, it may be the
means Of saving some other life. Be
warned in time.

UNCLE SAM TIGHT
ON PURSE STRINGS
OLD FURNITURE NOW IN USE WILL
BE TRANSFERRED 70 NEW
FEDERAL BUILDING.

Contrary to the general impression,
the handsome new Federal building on
Main street will not be furnished
throughout with new desks and easy
chairs and luxurious divans when the
local officials move into It. Instead All
of the furniture bookcases and record
files now in use In the quarters at
Seventh and Franklin streets Will be
transferred to the new quarters when
the signal to move is given. and or
ficials and clerks, aside from the
splendid permanent fixtures Installed
in the new building, VIII feel per
fectly at home in the company or their
old furniture.
Uncle sam Is not so extravagant a
guardian as some believe--on the con-
trary he IL rigid economist. A short
time ago An inspector from Washing
ton was sent to Richmond to examine
the furniture now In use In the post
office and Federal Offices. After a
thorough inspection he reported TO
headquarters that with "a little refur-
nishing here and there the present
equipment was good enough and that
stands.
custodian of the building. called atten--
ton yesterday 10 the fact that 1T had
been he purpose of the department TO
install steel bookcases In the new
building for the library of the Federal
courts, but after the inspector saw the
fine old oak bookcases now in use he
grew enthusiastic. declaring that these
massive cases could not be purchased
now for twice the original cost.
Custodian Arnold stated yesterday
| that the move would be made into the
| new building between September lst
and 23rd. The OFFICES Will be moved
| one at a time and week or more
