walking back from Revere to Dumas
wher struck.
From all indications he was walk
ing on the east track, when q train
approached, and he stepped over onto
the west track, not seeing the Kan
gas City train until it was almost on
him. It was then too late to jump
and he was caught by the train, ac-
cording to the coroner's inquest.
Rider was "a years old. He had
been married about two months, and
had gone into the mercantile trade
business with his father at Belfast,
they having opened up q complete

Rev. F. 3. MeAIllster Of Baptist
Church, Has Plan Which VIII
Enlist More Interest,
He Believes.
TO RAISE EFFICIENCY
Mission Subjects Are 70 BIO Dealt
With and stereoptican Will
be Ussd for
This.

In an effort to make the Wednes-
day evening service 100 percent effi-
cient, Rev. F. B. McAllister OF the
First Baptist church, has plan that
will not only be intensely interesting
but very educational For ten weeks
there will be mission study cam
paign In connection with the regular
mid-week service. The evening Will
be divided into three periods. From
7:15 to 7:45 there will be stereoptican
slides shown each Wednesday, even
ing, on the various mission fields;
from 7:45 to $50 there will be seven
classes, lead by the most efficient
teachers that can be procured in the
town, on some vital phase of mission
work; and then, from $3.50 to 9:15
the classes will gather IN the prayer
meeting auditorium and hold the regu-
lar prayer service. Although there
will be great amount accomplished
in the evening, the last period will
be out but very little time later
than the usual meeting.
The slides that will be shown are
as follows: Livingston and the
Congo" Immigration" Mexico"
North American Indians" 1.-THE In
dian Empire" China Yesterday
and Today In Burma" Gospel Ship
in the Japanese Waters" "a Century
of Missionary Achievement and THE
Story OF Judson." These slides cover
a broad range and will not only leave
images OF the firing line that will
stick, but interesting lectures will be
given in connestion with them. Each
Wednesday WILL be devoted to one OF
these particular fields. The young
mems class have procured very valu-
able lantern and this will be used.
The second period Of the evening
win be very important, for the sub.
jects that will be discussed viii be
vital to the mission student. Each OF
the seven classes will specialize on
one subject and devote the entire ten
weeks to that question. The subjects
under consideration are: "Aiens or
Americans" "Our Country" ''1shlam.
a Challenge to Faith" Servants Of
the King 'The New Era In Asia"
EFFECTIVE Workers in Needy Fields, :"
and Livingston, the Pathfinder" The
group system. which is recommended
by the missionary leaders, Is coming
In favor all over the country, because
it gives better opportunity for indf-
viduaI expression and effort. 1t will
be the purpose to have sufficient
number of classes so that the number
in the classes will be comparatively
small. 1t Is hoped that the number
in each class will keep within twentf-
i've
Already great interest has been
shown, and though the classes have
not as yet been organized there are
about one hundred and fifty that have
expressed desire to join the CAM
paign and have signed up for a class.
The first meeting will be at 7:15 We'd
nesday. At this time slides will be
shown on Livingston and the Congo"
classes will be organized and have
their first lesson. Rev. McAllister will
have for his theme for the evening,
during the prayer meeting period,

U. S. SENDS JAPAN
 A DECLARATION OF POLICY
In Reply to Assurance That Integrity
 of China Would Be Preserved.

Washington, Aug. 21.-Japan has re- ceived from the United States a for nal declaration of policy bearing on the delivery by Japan to Germany Of the ultimatum demanding the surren- der by the latter country of the terri tory of Kiao-Chow. The American governments attitude was outlined in reply to assurances which Foreign Minister Kato had given to Ambassa- dor Guthrie, according to advices rom Tokio to the effect that the integrity of China would be preserved
 While regretting that any of the differences had arisen between Japan and Germany. the United States point ed out that it must refrain from ex- pressing any opinion on the merits Of the ultimatum. especially since the ul- timatum might lead to war, and it was the avowed policy of this government to maintain absolute neutrality in ev- cry phase of the European conflict.
 The United State stock occasion, however. in a friendly and diplomatic way, to place on record its understand ing of the situation as follows:
 Ffrst-That Japan's purpose was not to seek territorial aggrandizement In China
 Second-That Japan had promised to restore the territory of Kiao-Chow to China, maintaining the integrity of that republic. and acting only in ac- cordance with the Anglo-Japanese alu- ance. one of whose objects is the pres-' ervation of the commercial interests of all powers in China and the principle of equal opportunity to all.
 Third-That in case of serious dis orders or disturbances in the interior Of China growing out of the unsettled state of affairs in the far east Japan would. as a matter of course, consult the United States before taking any steps beyond boundaries of the terri tory of Kiao-Chow.

BURIAL OF POPE PIUS
 TO BE ABSOLUTELY PRIVATE.
Thousands of Persons Visit Throne
 Room and View Body.

Rome, Aug. 21.-Borne by red-uni- formed members of the Sediali, who, when he was alive. carried him in tne Sedan Gestatoria chair. the body of Pope Plus X, dressed in pontificaI robes and mitre, and with the other emblems of his sacred office lying be- side it, was taken today to the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament in St Peters, where the solemn rites of dissolution were performed.
 Thousands of persons previously had visited the throne room, where the body lay, to look upon the face of tie dead pontiff, and many of them wove themselves into the great procession from the throne room to the chapel. The procession was headed by the bearers of the massive silver pontificaI cross and twenty cardinals and patri- archs. archbishops, bishops, priests and papal and court chamberlain and meru- bers of the Swiss noble and Palatfne guards in their multicolored uniforms The scene was impressive. Under the flare of the candles in the chapel could be seen the tear-dimmed eyes of pre- late. priest, layman and papal guard. Especially affected were the bearers of the body of the pope.
 The burial of Pope Plus will be abso- lutely private. This was decided upon today.

GERMAN LLOYD LINER
 TO SAIL FOR BERGEN
With Coal Piled in staterooms and on
 Deck.

Philadelphia, Aug. N.-The North German Lloyd steamship Brandenburg today took out clearance papers for Bergen, Norway, and will sail for that port some time during the day or to- night.
 There has been much activity aboard ship for several days and it is stated that 10000 tons of coal has been de- Ivered to her. This has been placed everywhere, even being piled in the staterooms and on deck.
 The captain explains that this big supply is necessary because 1t will re- >quire two months to steam to Bergen. It is also stated that enough provisions have been taken son board to feed the crew for year.
 There is much conjecture concern ing the future of the steamer ana her cargo. It is reported she will try. to deliver the coal to German warships cruising in this vicinity. or else will proceed to Germany and become a hospital ship. It is pointed out that she is too old and slow to be converted into a war cruiser.
 The Brandenburg arrived here Au- gust 5 with passengers and cargo des- tined for Galveston. Because of dan der of capture by British warships it was decided to keep the boat here and send the passengers and cargo by rail.
