excursion was postponed, and feared that
their outing with the Knights, which is an
event looked forward to throughout the
entire year, would be Cancelled, but the
members of the organization which is host
to the Riddles today. instead of calling of
the plans, have arranged for a bigger day
than ever before.
Today's program includes nine athletic
events, and prizes will be awarded to the
children finishing first, second and third in
each event. DR.. ]. Rozier Biggs is acting
as chairman of the committee on arrange
ments.

Good Shepherd, and called upon their
hearers to take up the cudgels in defense
of those in charge of the House of the

recently been INDUCED in by reason of
the death of an inmate following an at

The appeals yesterday were the result

STATEMENT IS QUESTIONED.
Anti-Suffragists Deny There Art
100000 Woman Voters.

A denial of statements made by suf-
fragist leaders that there are 4.O09.0OO
voting women in the United States was
made yesterday by the officers of the Ma
tional Association Opposed to Woman Suf-
fraSe, through their Washington head
quarters.
The statements of the suffragists are
ambitious says the statement of the
anti organization. "The official figures of
the United States census are correct. The
census shows that there are in the nine
states spoken of a sum total of only
$685., 241 women twenty-one years of age
and over, and this total of females who
have reached the voting age includes the
ignorant, the foreign-bOrIf, the unnatural
lied, the negro, the Indian and the Japa-
nese and Chinese. The total number of
native-born white women OF voting age in
all these nine states is exactly 1.61S.3y6.
The foreign-born total S-3,O14 Those of
foreign or mixed parentage number to
SIS. 1J0
Consequently. under the restrictions
put on the franchise, 1t would be more
than liberal estimate to say there are
2..0O, 600 woman voters. BY this we mean
100000 women of all conditions and ma
tionalities who are able to vote. But the
states which have granted the franchise
to women estimate that, as top figure,
not more than two-thirds of the women of
voting age register, and not more than 20
per cent of those go to the polls.
"Two-thirds of 2,JOO.Oo0 does not amount
to 100000. Consequently, those women
who arrogantly made to Congress the out
rageous statement that they represented
100000 woman voters in reality voiced
the opinions of far less than 100000
women. Having behind them the support
of less than 100000. they claimed 1000
600, which is COZ, 759 more than all the
women Of voting age in all the suffrage
states

QUESTIONS Of JESUS
THEME OF DISCOURSE
Rev. DR.. Leech Also Comments
on Secretary Bryan's
Sermon-L eCture.

| At the Foundry Methodist Episcopal
| Church yesterday morning Rev. DR.. s.
| V. Leech preached from the questions Of
Jesus, found in the gospel by Mark:
| What shall 1t profit man if he gain
the whole world and lose his own soul?
Or what shall a man give In exchange
| for his sOul?"
| DR.. Leech said: Recently, from this
| text, the Secretary Of State gave to the
general public, in print. his brilliant and
able sermon-lecture entitled, THE Price
Of Soul" 1t was an eloquent array OF
the chief enemies with which humanity
struggles
To-day l propose to present the chief
factor in these questions of Christine
Human Soul'-that part of mans nature
| that is endowed with wonderful attrl-
butes: that is crowned with mighty
achievements: the soul whose redemption
cost the crucifxion of the divine Son of
God, the soul progressing toward
splendid and immortal evolution; the
soul rated above creation by the worlds
Savior: the soul whose final loss consti-
tutes mans first complete bankruptcy.
THE text embodies the most stu
pendous problem of mathematics
Socrates spent the night before his
martyrdom discussing the attributes OF
the soul"
Six Great Endowments.
DR.. Leech presented and discussed
the six great Intellectual and moral
endowments of a sou1-reasOn, memory.
imagination. conscience, affection and
will. He then reviewed the marvellous
triumphs and achievements of the soul
in science, art, literature and depart
! ments of industry. AS illustrative OF
the cost of SOULS redemption he pic
tured the tragedy of Calvary and the
drama of the human life of Christ. He
dwelt on the souls deathless and un-
folding future Of immortal b1essedness.
He emphasized the possibility Of the
loss of the soul beyond the grave He
showed how Christ put honor, pleasure,
health and fortune in one scale. and
the soul in the other, and proclaimed
the immeasureable contrast between
their weight and worth. He argued
that total bankruptcy begins when the
soul is lost at death.
"The three overshadowing lessons
taught by this text" he said. "are. first.
lifes supreme duty is to see that the
salvation of the soul is accomplished;
second, that no human soul need be
hopelessly lost: and third. that because
Of the everlasting destiny Of human souls
the supreme work Of every Christian. and
every church, is the guidance Of the souls
of men, women and children to Jesus
Christ.
