EXPLAINS WHAT
 CHARITY MEANS
The Rev. Walter Rallschenbuscll Trenches Practical Sermon at
 Cleveland Conference.

Cleveland, O., June 17-"This con- ference is dealing with people, with folks. It is immensely human," said the Rev. Walter Rauschenbusch of Rochester, N. Y., in the annual ser- mon of the National Conference of Charities and Correction here today 1But" said the minister, 'it is also dealing with the Christ who is their champion and Savior, and with the eternal God in whom they live and move and have their being.
 Look beyond the screen of the flesh. beyond the click of your charit- able machinery. and realize how holy your work really is. You are in the direct line of apostolic succession. Your work is redempsiye. Wher you loosen the clutch of greed from the thin arm of the child worker; when you guide the immigrant safely past the grasping hands to place where

he can work and establish his home in cleanliness and hope; when you put finger-tops on the eyes of the blind; when you lead the deaf out If the prison house of lonlness ard give him speech with his kind; when you heal the demoniacs of alcohol ism; when you seek to turn our prisons into institutions of socia healing and teaching, instead of stone crusheTs and steam rollers of hu- manity; when you change the cold stare of responsibility for the fallen woman into the Christlike look of un- derstandng and sympathy; you are speading step by stap in the foot- prints of the Nazarena You are do- ing with modern organization what he d.d, and you have the right to feel the nearness of God as he left it.
 This conference means more than few hundred men and women gath cred together to deliberate. It is the collective mind of our nation and hu- manity focused on these problems The intelligence which you bring to bear on each question is not your personal cleverness, but the accumu- lated social wisdom of mankind which has been slowly secreted and dis titled by the labor of generations l appeal to you to put just and religious valuation on the thoughts you think here and the emotions sou ife!.
 Religion has the master word in human life. When patriotism, poetry, science, philosophy rise to their high est level, they become religious. In the great moment of life nothing suf- fices except religion. If the Titanic had sunk while the band was playing anything but a religious song, it would have been felt as disson- ance."

ONLY TWO MAY
 BE CONSIDERED Chancellor Kirkland of Van derbilt, and Mitchell of
 South Carolina.
BOTH ARE WILLING
Neither Have Made Application for Presidency of Arkansas Uni.
 versity to Succeed Tiliman.

Little Rock, Ark, June 17.-When the Board Of Trustees of the Unver- sity of Arkansas meets in Little Rock on June 27 to select a president for the university to succeed Presi- dent J. N. Tillman, who has declined to stand for reelection, it is prob able that only two names will be con- sidered. President Mitchell, of the University of South Carolina, and Chancellor Kirkland, of Vanderbilt University, will be the educators te- tween whom the Board of Trustees will be called upon to make selec- tion.
 For some months the Board of Trustees have been considering the material in the South, with the deter minatlon to get the very best that could be secured, considering it im- perative that such a man must be persuaded to take the helm of the state institution at the present time Consultations were held with noted educators of the United States, and it was agreed that President Mitchell, having displayed the executive abil- ity required for the handling of such condition as University of Arkansas is in today, was the very man for the place. President Mitchell did not make an application, but members of the Board opened negotiations with him, and they were satisfied he would come to Arkansas if he could better his condition by doing so.
 Until few days ago it was not known that Chancellor Kirkland would even consider the proposition of move to Arkansas, but one mem- Der of the Board has satisfied him. self that Chancellor Kirkland has completed the work he started out to ldo years ago for Vanderbilt, and that 'df he was elected to the presidency of the University of Arkansas, he would accept the position.
 There is no fixed salary for the president of the University of Arkan- sas, though for some years the posi- tion has carried with it yearly sal ary of $4,000. The Board of Irus- tees is aware of tho fact that neither of the educators under consideration could be secured for this amount yet the members believe that the best is cheap at any price, and it is probable that $7,50O will be offered the man to whom the position is rendered. "
 There have been at least a dozen applications filed for the position of president of the University of Arkan- sas, but one member of the board re- gently stated that no applicant for the place would be considered, for it is a case of the place seeking the man, and not the man. seeking the place.
 The new president will be extend ed the courtesy of having a hand in tEe selection of the faculty, or a ma 5ol portion of it, the hoard holding open many places until after the sell ection of the university head has been made
