 0N CONSOLIDATION
Kansas City General Assem- bly, Refers Overtures for Union of Churches to
 Committee

Kansas City, May 2S.-Although a union of the 17 Presbyterian organizations long has been sought by the various church bodies, action looking to such a federa- tion probably will not be taken by the general assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States (southern) in session here, commissioners said to- day.
 A number of communications against amalgamation were read and referred to a committee on overtures for unity. The committee is expected to report early next week. Most of the leading commmis- sioners believe a middle ground will be taken, one that will not antagonize rig idly orthodox members.
 An overture from the Presbyterian Church of the United States of America was read before the assembly today. This contained a plea. to unite all Presbyterian bodies in a federated union under the direction of a Presbyterian congress to be patterned after the national Congress
 Proposes Union
 Another overture from the Presbytery of Knoxville, Tenn, proposed a union of all the church bodies, divided into fouI districts, northeast, southeast. northwest and southwest Annual meetings of the governing organizations in each district were proposed with meeting of gen eral council of all the districts every four years.
 The Womans council of the church to- day considered a suggestion that dona- tions be made directly to the church and not to the Womens auxiliary, as has been the custom No definite decision was reached.
 A general educational conference was held tonight. The Rev. M. r. Melvin, Port Gibson, Miss. urged greater cooper < ation between the church and it's schools &pd colleges and a more liberal financial

 Would Observe Sabbath
 Chicago, May 23.-Granting of the Saturday half holiday as a means of a stricter observance of the Sabbath was urged in the report of the com mittee on Sabbath observance made to- day to the general assembly of the Presbyterian church (northern). Other recommendations made by the commit tee were:
 That the general assembly reiterates it's strong and emphatic disapproval of all secular uses of the Sabbath day. all games and sport, in civic life, as also in the army and navy, and all unnee- essary travelling and all excursions, and urges upon all employers of labor and captains of industry to recognize the need of the laboring man for his week 1y rest day. and thereby insure his greater efficiency and happiness, and the greater prosperity of both capital and labor
 That we most respectfully call at tention of all public officials to the potent influence of their position on all moral questions and the necessity oI STedter care on tneir part that they may strengthen rather than weaken by their influence public and private ob- servance of the Lords day.
 That all families be urged not to buy anything on the Sabbath to plan for their servants on the Sabbath and to help them fulfil their religious du- ties. and pay 1aborers so they may have Saturday afternoon to make provision for the Sabbath.
 Sunday Paper Condemned
 That the general assembly reiter- ates it's emphatic condemnation or the Sunday newspaper and urges the mem- bers of the Presby byterian church to re- fuse to subscribe for 1t or read it or advertise in it.
 That the faculties of colleges and seminaries, if the way be clear, be re- qUested to omit recitations Monday mornings so as to leave the Sabbath free from the necessity of students pre- pairing their lessons on that day.
 That a Sabbath observance commit tee be organized in each synod and presb ytery."

JOE LUN0NTO IS
FOUND; SENDS
FOR MONKEY
Missing Organ Grinder Mails
Check to Pay Man Who Took
Care of Grieving Pet.

Some time Thursday afternoon
there is going to be one happy little
monkey in Louisville, Ky.
Joe Lunonto, the mysteriously dis
appearing Italian organ grinder has
turned up again.
The connection between those state
ments is as follows:
Joe vanished from his boarding
place, No. 167 IL Decatur street, some
five weeks ago. He left sorrowful
monkey named Jumbo and his trusty
hand organ, which would play the
Marseillaise after a fashion.
Sends for Belongings.
The police looked for Joe, and P. H.
Enrlght, the proprietor of the rooming
house, looked for Joe, and the monkey
looked for Joe and would not be COM
forted.
In fact, it was some days before
Jumbo would eat.
But nothing was heard from Joe
until Wednesday. Then letter, writ
ten by Louisville lawyer for Joe La
nonto, came to Enright.
Joe said he was all right, adding
that he was in Louisville stopping at
an italian hotel operated by a rela-
tive. He asked that Jumbo and the
organ be sent to him at once.
Pays Jumbo's Room Rent.
And-this part of the letter opened
Enright's eyes-there was a check to
cover room rent for the monkey, Just
as much as If Joe had been there all
the time too.
So Wednesday afternoon Euright
packed up the hand organ and it's
Marseillaise possibilities, and Grated
Jumbo in comfortable little cage,
and turned them over to the express
company, the organ keeping perfectly
quiet and Jumbo conversing volubly
and waving a small brown hand
through the stats.
And by this time Jumbo probably Is
a happy little monkey.
