WHISTLE HYMNS IN CHURCH.
Boy Chorus Of Fifty Helps to "Hu.
mamie" Service.

Philadelphia.-A chorus Of fifty boys,
after considerable training with no
small amount Of patience, whistled the
hymn tunes in the services of the Cal
vary Reformed church here. The girls
carried the hymn with their soprano
voices. and the effect is said to have
been rather startling,
Another innovation in the movement
for "humanizing" such services was
the "all girl" service in the same
church preceding the whstling.

come in from the battletields of Tor
reon, where Mexican fought Mexican
with the ferocity of grizzlies and the
headlong courage of Spartan heroes.
For more than week, battle follow
ed battle, charge followed charge. The
mountains rang daily and nightly with
the detonations of artillery duels.
Great Battle.
1t was the greatest battle fought on
American soil since the American
Civil war!
A book could be written and posi-
bly, will be written of this great bat
tie, but I will only tell you of the
scenes that impressed me, the Incl
dents that thrilled me, the sights that
burned into the brains of the little
squads of Americans who came down
here to see Gen. Villa in the sternest
test of his battle-scarred life.
Strange Army.
In was a strange looking army that
left Bermejillo, Gen. Villas base, on
that Sunday afternoon which made
history in northern Mexico. A horde
OF 10000 ragged, high-hatted, vaga-
bonds in command of glorified bril-
gand, moved down the Mexican Ma
tional railroad track to the attack ON
Torreon's outlying towns. The fan
kers of Generals Venavides and Huer-
ia spread out for miles on each side of
the track.
A troop train carried the artillery
and the white enameled hospital train
brought up the rear.
Villa At Head
Villa himself, his suede uniform dis
carded for the bandit Gar. his. men
loved so well, rode at the head Of the
line on his pinto pony, grinning
through his snaggled teeth and shout
ing maledictions in Spanish to the
mules Of the supply train, or stopped
to give sandal clad peon soldier 4
light from his corn husk cigaret.
Off to the south was Gobez Palaci0,
the federal front, and behind that
squat, adobe town was the Mountain
Of the Cross, which marked the goal
Of all rebel ambitions in the north
TorreOn.
The Attack
At sunset they squatted beside the
mesquite brush of the desert and
their tortilias, fearing to
light fires, for the attack was to be at
night and without warning.
Rifle magazines were crammed full
of cartridges, ammunition belts which
girded the men two, three and even
four times were inspected and filled
long boxes having red wv stamp
ed on them, the inevitable after-dinner
cigaret followed, then-"fall in"
Great Losses
The famous ship cannot, Ell NinO,
was unlimbered and loaded. The cav
airy mounted their diminutive COW
ponies, the infantry broke into the
peculiar stiff-kneed shuttle which eats
up distance, Villas saber whistled the
silent signal for the charge.
Five thousand men threw them
selves on Gomez Palacio, where the
federal fighters squatted behind q
great corral made of sun-dried brick.
Five machine guns were mounted on.
the wall. Gen. Benavides rode at
this wall with his trim, brave Zara-
gosa bridage, the pride Of the rebel
army, to return two days later with
it's ranks cut to pieces and more than
two hundred of the brigade missing.

How II Reasons Out.
The senator said the United States
is the greatest market in the world. 1t
buys forty billions of dollars worth of
goods annually. This market. he de-
clared. has become demoralized
through the effects of the tariff. our
manufacturers have become so weak
ened that they are unable to push the
sale of their goods in foreign markets
and this has turned the trade balance
against us. With trade setting the
wrong way the money has gone out and
we are up against a financial string
ency. The audience staggered little.
fguratively speaking. but did its best
to make it appear that it had followed
the senator's line of reasoning.
The senator's main plea was for
peace within the party. He said there
was no real occasion for the schism
between the standpat and the progress
sive wings. The party rules were the
same in the 1912 convention as in that
Of 1908. In the latter Roosevelt had
used the southern representation to
nominate Taft. Four years later when
Taft made use of the same convenient
resource to have himself renamed it
was a crime il the eyes of the head OF
the bull moose.
Mr.. Sherman paid his respects to
the colonel in mild terms. He at
tempted to refute some of the charges
which had been made against himself. |
admitting that he had supported the
Allen bill of some years ago when
member of the state legislature and !
that he had taken part in a bipartisan |
alliance later, but denying that he had !
ever been involved in any enterprise |
with the Lorimer wing of the party.
Mr.. Lorimer and l parted company |
years ago said he. land we have
never since gotten together polite

somebody had given Roosevelt a lot of
transformation with respect to Illinois
conditions and this was responsible

made in his recent tour of the state.

whisked thence to Moline where

he is scheduled for an address at East

The senator declared the republican
candidates this fall are campaigning
on the record of the democratic admin
istration. The only part of that record
that he referred to. however, was the
passing of the Underwood tariff bill
act, which he said had been the cause
of all ills from a to lizard. 1t was
a sectional measure. he contended.
