Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines. July 23.-One OF the ac-
tivities Of the Gideons, religious or
ganizatioE Of travelling men. now hold
ing their sixteenth annual convention
in Des Moines. Is the placing Of bibles
in hotels. This custom started in No
vember, 1908. with the placing Of TWEEN
ty-flve bibles in the hotel in the little
Montana town called Iron Mountain.
Since that time the organization has
literally spread the gosper' thruout
the length and breadth Of the land and
up to July Of this year 2s6,156 bibles
had been placed in the hotels in Iowa.
They are to be found in the hotels In
the larger towns and cities in prac-
tically every state in the union. usu-
ally the funds are provided thru an APP
peal on the part of a Gideon to the
churches or church people in the city
where the bibles are to be placed.
Many interesting stories reach the
Office OF the organization in Chicago of
the struggle which men and women
have undergone with temptation in the
rooms Of hotels ana OF their victory
over the tempter, due to the silent,
powerful influence of the bible which
the tempted one turned to and found
inspiration.
One OF these stories is Of a young
woman from a fine family and herself
an accomplished and talented girl who
came to San Antonio hotel for few
days visit in the city. She soon formed
the acquaintance Of man who proved
to be a scoundrel and who persuaded
her to consent to his visiting her room
one night. While awaiting his COM
ing she began to read the Gideon bible
on her table, saw her intended sin In
its true light and when the man came
her door was locked and she was on
her knees crying to God for mercy and
pardon. She went back to her home
the next day as pure as when she left.
One Of the southern Gideons went
into Stonewall Hotel, Charlotte, N. c..
and asked the housekeeper If any bibles
had been taken. She told him she
missed bible from one room, Upon

pected there will be considerable COM
petition for this duty, as the men will
be selected from the various troops OF

Jitney Failure in pss Moines.

Des .Moines. July 23-The jitney has
been almost complete failure in Des
Moines. With the exception Of the
Highland Park line and the South
Ninth lines. most of the jitney routes
have been abandoned. A great many
car owners learned that jitney service
soon retired their cars to the junk pile
and that it did not provide any fund
with which to purchase a new car.
Jitneys to Highland Park have been
more successful because students have
been willing to pile in two or three
deep on a seat and load down the cars
to such an extent as to make the SER
vice pay well as long as the cars hold
out. This same sort OF crowding and
jamming leads us to believe that even
in time these lines will drop out or
raise the price to ten cents.
