Abandoned Churches in Kansas.

New York World: A state confer
ence of pastors and teachers in Kansas
has brought to public notice that there
are upward of 1000 abandoned houses
of worship in that state. 1t is report
ed that in the conference an opinion
prevailed that"the decline Of popular
interest in church service is due main
ly to fondness for motoring. r~ -
The facts are Of more than: passing
interest. Kansas was founded hardly
more than fifty years agoghy~men and
to whom religion was as the
breath of their nostrils: Zealots, in the
cause of abolition and of Christianity
as they understood 1t, the Bible was d
household book and worship some-
thing more than a Sunday observance.
Their spirit was that of the Puritians
going to Armageddon to battle for the
Lord. Their songs were all hymns.
Their piety had eve a fighting edge
on it. "es'
Behold now their grandchildren
scott at worship, abandon churches
and take to Sunday joyriding!
This is the progress of bumper
crops and high prices. Too much fat
in the land, too much milk and honey
in the streams, too many chicken din
ners for harvest hands, too many
wayside inns where forbidden waters
are sweet, and though secret, are
abundant, too many good roads for
swift riding where the corn grows
high and the riders can't be seen, too
many motors for the farmers sons
and also for the farmers daughters
With these impulses pressing through
the week, Kansas can't sit still on
Sunday.
Central American Relations.
New York Times: The replies OF
the presidents Of the Central American
states, Costa RIGA. and Salvador, to
the inquiry of The Times as to their
feeling in regard to the pending treaty
with Nicaragua, which will establish
a virtual protectorate of the United
States, is just wharf might have been
expected. Both Salvador and Costa
Rica are free from internal dissen-
sions, and fairly prosperous, though
doubtless their prosperity could DC
greatly increased by the sjudicious' in
vstmentt of capital. Their chief
magistrates discountenances the idea
Of s~urrendering their independence In
any degree. With Nicaragua the case
is different. III The View of the presi-

Do Something.
New York Telegram: Itt is q
Macedonian cry for haste in settling
the tariff matter that has gone up
from all over the country.
When the formal. opening Of debate
in the senate President Wilson has
been flooded with mail containing
pleas that the uncertainty be ended.
Business is being held up everywhere
pending definite action, and the presi-
dent must be aware of the fact.
There need not be and should not be
unnecessary delay caused by the OPP
position. Senator Cummins, for the
republicans has assailed the measure
in good set terrns.1.seyerely criticized
President Wilson's course in shaping
the bill and predicts democratic
disaster.
Let it so at that. The business
world wants to know at once Just
where it stands.
The burden of all the letters re-
ceived is that it is not so muci, a
question of rates now as an end of
uncertainty.
Don't waste my more time.
No Parcel Post Set Back.
Philadelphia Record: Senators who
protest against the cut lii parcel post
rates on the ground that 1t would
result in a great loss to the govern
ment are barking UP the wrong tree.
The pay received by the railroads for
the transportation of mail averages
about 8 cents a ton-nile, which is
equivalent to a charge OF 1 cent for
the transportation OF one pound for a
distance of $50 miles. The new rate is
1 cent per pound within d radius of
$50 miles. Buttall the packages mail
ed within a zone will not 20 the whole
distance from center to periphery. III
the average distance travelled by
postal parcels within the 150-mile zone
should: be 100 miles, which lis an over
estimate, the government would re-
ceive / cent a pound for transporta-
ton which costs it four mills. The
profit would be six mills per pound.

Baltimore American: There died in

his crooked line of business and work
ed off thousands upon thousands OF
counterfeit money ON those who were
willing to buy and to take chance
on being able to get away with 1t.

twenty years ago.S land III was easy for

money this man had made In years
gone by soon disappointed and he be-
came human wreck, Just the fate
that meets so many successful GRIM

EMERY SPOKE AT BANQUET.

Secretary Wolf of the Fargo Y. M.
G. A. returned yesterday afternoon
from a trip to Bismarck, where he
went in the interests of the Y. M. c..
A. which the people OF Bismarck are
trying to organize in tine capital city.
The big g~et-together banquet was
held Friday evening, and a number of
addresses were heard. Governor Han
ma was present, and was one Of the
speakers. Judge Spalding also ad-
dressed the gathering. President EN-
cry of the Fargo City commission,
who is also president Of the Fargo z.
M. c. A, was heard with a great deal
OF interest, as was Secretary Wolf.
The following day, Saturday, MI.
Wolf. with a number of others, held
conferences with the principal men of
the city, n found that the sentiment
is heartily in favor of pushing the
movement. which will be backed by
every business man of the city. A
committee was organized, headed by
secretary of State Thomas Hall, to
have general charge of the movement,
and to secure initial gifts. that is, the
promise OF certain sums If the organ
lzation can raise a certain larger sum
rirst. Mr.. Wolf feels confident that
the city Of Bismarck will nave g. we'll
equipped building inside of two years.

Sunday, one Of them at the state pen

convicts in the afternoon on the top
ic. A Baseball Parable, in which he
lfkened the game Of baseball to the
game Of life, with it's opportunities for
pinch hitting, sacrifices, assists, etc.
The address was enthusiastically re-
ceived by the audience. and Warden
Talcott assured the speaker that very
seldom had so happy a speech been
heard at the penitentiary. The con-
V1ct orchestra gave several selections
during the programme, and proved
themselves as capable as many of the
musical organizations outside of pris-
on walls. ~~
In the afternoon, when the pro-
gramme at the prison was finished,
the convict orchestra came to the city
in carriages and autos. and played for
the programme which was held at the
opera house. The orchestra is com
nosed of TRUSTEES. who are often allow
ed to come and go, outside the prison,
without a guard. Mr.. Wolf has moth
ing but praise for the efficient manner
in which the affairs of the prison are
being conducted under Warden Tai
colt.

At a Colored Baptism,

Co.. could exc out a pretty fair exist
ance on the platform a la Bill Nye If
occasion demanded. His manne of
delivering stories is above the. ordin-
airy, and his supply unlimited. The fol-
lowing is a gem of his collection.
There was an old colored preacher
down south near Mr.. Gray's home who
was called upon to baptize a number
Of sinners that had come to repent
ence. 1t was winter, and the river
where the baptism was to take place
was frozen over. A hole was cut m
the ice and the first candidate for,im-
mersion went forth. AS the preacher
thrust him under the water his. grasp
gave way and the fellow disappeared
under the ice and was drowned. Turn
ing to the members of his flock who
stood on the bank of the river, he ex-
horted.
