GREAT MUSICAL FEATURE
international Quartet TO be Heard
at Boise During the Campaign
Week of the Men and Religion For
ward Movement.

There is no lover Of music who will
not desire to hear the International
Quartet which viii be in Boise dur
in theg Men and Religion Campaign
in February. The men comprising
this quartet are recognized as the
finest singers engaged in the gospel
work. Wherever they have appeared
they have created a furore. 1t is
not likely that people of Idaho will
ever again have an opportunity to
hear the message of the Christian
Gospel presented and sung in such
a manner as it will be put forth
from the threats of those great sing
ers. This is a feature that should
attract men from all sections with
in reach of the Capital City.

Country Districts Likely to outnum-
Dor It in Delegations to the Men
and Religion Convention.

The manner in which the auxiliary
towns are taking hold of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement and
preparing to send delegations to the
convention at Boise has suggested
that the capital city may be outnum-
bered in this respect by one or more
of the auxiliary places. Boise is
big enough to have as many dele
gates as all the auxiliary towns put
together That fact seems to have
been grasped by the Boise men and
they are now making an effort to
live up to what is expected Of them
in connection with the convention
feature of the great movement.

Personal Righteousness
Needed.
Striking Paragraph from Address De-
Iivered by Judge Dietrich at
Nampa.

The address delivered by Judge
F. S. Dietrich at Nampa on Tuesday
evening last was one of the most
forceful arguments ever put forward
in support of the contentious that
men should take an active part in
the services and management Of the
Christian Church. He touched upon
many features of the subject of
mems relation to the Church, call
ing attention to the obligations they
we're under and to the duty they
owe TO the Christian religion. Dur
ing his address he took occasion to
emphasize the claim that morality
rests upon Christian precepts in
Christian experience and that it can
not be maintained in any satisfactory
degree without adhesion to those
principles. The following paragraph
illustrates the tenor of his talk on
this aspect of his subject: eve can
not have a permanent civilization,
We cannot have an honest govern
ment, We cannot have equal oppor-
tunities, unless there is personal
Righteousness"

South Amboy, Dec. 24-Apparent-
ly the only way for the public to get
redress or wrongs righted or accom-
modations made more pleasant is by
and through the press and to keep at
the matter continually. The matter
we are about to bring before the
public and to the consideration OF the
trolley companies operating between
the Amboys has been published IN
the EVENING NEWS heretofore.
The matter which We wish to refer to
Is the operating between the Amboys
in the evenings, especially on Satur-
day evenings. We had occasion to
go to Perth Amboy on Saturday
evening and while we must expect in
convenience sometimes, but when 1t
Is to such an extent as to become
dangerous, We think then it Is time
to enter protest. The cars of both
companies were overcrowded on 60
ing from South to Perth Amboy so
much that there was scarcely stand
ing room.
We should Judge that there were
not less than IT'S persons on the car
and had anything gone wrong, as to
lh0 Cal iSdfiu5 Inc ldiiS, Iue HAUL l
supposition would be that the loss of
life would have been great. Why
not each company put on an extra
car at night for the accommodation
of its patrons? This will not be as
much cost as paying for the injury
or loss Of life of these hangers on.
Can not the companies give their
patrons safe and comfortable trans
%portation. Better modes of convey
ance were in use fifty years ago than
r furnished by these companies at
the present time between the Amboys

South Amboy. Dec. 2~4.-Charles
White, captain of the boat Ralph"
of the Powelton Company, Of New
York, appeared at the city hall last
evening and made a statement to
Police Justice Birmingham that his
wife. Annie White, had fallen over
board and drowned and that they
were unable to secure her body.
White appeared to be somewhat I'M
der the influence of liquor and
rather irrational and would not
stick to the same story.
After telling his story to the po-
lice justice he repeated a different
tale In the presence of three news
paper reporters somewhat as fol-
lows: Captain James Kelly, of the
boat Troy, Of New York, had din
ner with me about half past twelve.
l went up the street again at half
past one or two O'Clock and came
back at half past four and my woman
was on his boat, where she had no
business to be. When l went over
there and looked down In the cabin
he took a big bottle off the table and
put 1t under his hand and went over
anu SCI IL LII lu0 COTueT. 1 CalloQ TO
my woman to come back on my boat.
She said all right. l went over. In
answer to a question he said the
boats were right alongside each
other. I went down and lit my pipe.
She did not come. went over the
second time and called to her. She
came up on the deck stood with her
hand on the side OF the main cabin.
She said something; she stood there
jawing and he pushed her. give her
a good poke in the Jaw and she went
over the side of the boat. I threw
my line over, but she never came to
the surface"
Police Justice Birmingham called
Whites attention to the fact that
this was a much different story from
what he had first repeated. White
commended 1t was the same as he told
the Justice and illustrated the man
ner in which the woman was pushed
with the result that the Justices face
was somewhat smeared with coal
dirt. The Justice did not appear to
place much credence In the conflict
ing stories,
