BILLY HAS
4
BIG MEET
Ono Of His Most Successful Days
Despite Heat and Other
Attractions.

Paterson. \. j., April Elm spite
of the heat and the out of doors at
fractions. Billy Sunday had one OF
his most successful days today,
At three meetings he addressed
2S,2o0 people. more than two-thirds
of whom were men, attracted by the
announcement that at the afternoon
and evening meetings Billy would re-
peat his sermon for men only. called
THE Devils Boomerang, or Hot
Cakes Right OF the Griddle,' which
he delivered last Sunday.
At the afternoon meeting fourteen
men tainted. and FIVE tainted in the
evening The heat in the tabernacle
this afternoon was intense, and 1t was
very hot in the evening, but there are
those who believe that most of the
men who dropped off did so because
the sermon affected them SO.
The men at those meetings early
followed Billy's example in stripping 20
the shirt. Billy took off his coat. vest
collar and tie.
There was a morning session for men
and women, and 23S people hit the
trail then. with the 26s trail hitters
in the afternoon and 27t in the evening,
his total for the day was 77s.

DE GOTTA
BANNED BY ALLIES

Paris. April 25.-The Almanach de
Gotha, which for SO years has been
the accepted authority on all royal,
princely and ducal houses OF the
world, will no longer be the spokes-
man of at least those royal. princely
and ducal families which belong TO
Great Britain Russia, Belgium and
France. Representatives of several of
the leading families have decided to
withdraw their endorsement from the
Gotha. for the reason that il is issued
in Germany and edited by Germans.
NJ Jean de Bonnefon. who for al
most twenty years has been accepted
as the greatest authority on matters
pertaining to the Catholic religion. the
Vatican and Rome. has been selected
as the editor of the new almanac
which is TO take place of the Gotha.
1t will be called the Almanach de
Brugeiles, as a tribute to the Belgians.
and will be published in Paris.

THINK SUIT HELPING
7. R. TO come BACK
Washington Politicians Are Closely
Following Progress of the Barnes
Roosevelt Suit.

Washington, April 25.-~w ashlugtor,
which Is political watchtower for
national development In anything that
may affect the presidency, has been
following the progress Of the Barnes
Roosevelt trial at Syracuse with keen
interest
On every hand there is a feeling
that Colonel Roosevelt has come back
politically as the result of the de
velopments thus far There were many
hints passed out before the trial began
that the plaintiff and his attorneys
would go into the case armed for the
Colonel. and that he would be finished
before the trial ended. This notice
added TO the widespread interest In
the case and increased the advertising
the Colonel has got out of it.
Politicians agree that the case has
given Colonel Roosevelt the prominence
that was necessary TO make him a
political factor again. His views on
political morality go out 20 the
country at a time when ii viii do him
good. The effect is certain TO be felt
in the preconvention campaign of tho
Republican nomination for president in
1916. in which the Colonel already has
intmated to more than one friend that
he expects TO take part. He has
disclaimed any intention Of being a
candidate and this was reiterated by
Senator Borah. of Chicago. n few days
ago after talk with Colonel Roose-
Welt.
whatever may be the ultimate effect
following the verdict of the jury. there
Is no doubt that the effect has been
TO start a revival OF the Roosevelt
sentiment in the Middle West and West
which may not suhstd- until it makes
Roosevelt a formidable factor in the
Republican preconvention campaign.

G ARDEN OF EDEN
STORY in BRAZIL

Philadelphia, April 25.--Dtscovery
Of tribe Of Indians In the noun
tains between Brazil and Guinea
VINO have a new story Of the Gar
den OF Eden Is reported in let
ter received from DR. William c.
Farahee. lender of the Universi;s
Museum Amazon expedition. Thess
Indians chief asset is a huge rock
much resembling the trunk OF a tree
THIS was, they say. the only original
tree OF life. Their story OF the Gar
den Of Eden Is this;
In the beginning there were two
brothers. who were gods One was
Duwid and the other was Tumirkar
who dreaded men and women and ami
mails puwid provided the food. bring
ing fruit and vegetables.
The people came upon a great tree
bearing all sorts OF food, Then they
said Here Is where Duwid gets the
food. Let us come here and get II
ourselves. and We will not have &c
offer up thanks TO him"
Next day they hunted up the god and
told him not to bother about fetching
them food that they could taka care
Of themselves
Duwid replied tina, he would com
pc, them To work for their dinners.
and announced that the tree would
be cut down But he offered them the
chance to cut off as many branches as
they choose. All that was required
was to plant the branch and water II
each day The people planted a loi
of the branches. but grew tired and
said they had enough varieties This
is why there were so few varieties OF
fruits and vegetables in the world.

.OkUhA TELLS JAPAN'S
POLICY TOWARD CHINA
Intends to- Have What It's Entitled
To, He Says in Interview With
Samuel q. Blythe.

Washington, April 25.-The &C
count written by Samuel 9, Blythe,
of the Saturday Evening Post, of his
interview with Count Okuma. premier
OF Japan, has attracted much atten-
ton in official and diplomatic quar-
ters here.
The interview has attra cted atten-
ton here not SO much because of
what the Japanese statesman has to
say en- the much discussed subject of
the possibilities of war with Japan,
but because of his exposition OF the
japanese policy in China. What
Count Okuma had to say TO his Amer
lean interviewer is considered here as
the most impressive revelation of the
real meaning OF the negotiations now
proceeding in Pekin that has yet been
made in any quarter.
Previous statements of Count Oku-
ma and other Japanese, with refer
ence 10 the situation in China have
been largely negative, affirming and
reaffirming Japan's intention to re-
spect her international obligations,
and not TO violate the principles of
the open door and Chlna's territ orial
integrity. Count Okuma accompanies
these with statements that not only
reiterate what Japan does not intend
TO do, but disclose in most convinc-
ing manner what il is that she is de-
terrnined to do. His words are re-
garded as proof that Japan IS not to
be diverted from her present program
in China by any protests from the lat
ter, or notes of inquiry from the Uni
ted States.
The Count Okuma interview is ac-
copied here as authentic, and the fun
value is given to statements on the
part of the Japanese statesman
We have no designs on the terri
torial integrity OF China or any other
design than the full possession Of the
rights we feel we have there-our
natural advantages. due to our geo.
graphical situation, our understanding
Of the Chinese people, and such racial
and other relationships as we have
with them"
And now comes the meat of the
proposition. revealing the naked truth
Of the situa ton:
In other words we do not protest
II other nations shall secure what
they are entitled to. and expect them
TO do so, but We, for our part, intend
to have what we are entitled to
also"
The present negotiations in Pekin
show what Japan feels sh< is entitled
to In China. Americans and British
In the Far East feel that when Japan
has secured what she is entitled to-
there will aee but little opportunity left
for other nations in China,

elares that roses fall in love. He
says that the passion OF the Killarney
for the Crimson Rambler is wholly
sensuous.
I'm fact" said the professor to-
day, the love OF rose is the Vito
dynamic desire to bring about the
physiological and chemical union of
two rose cells the desire of the rose
cell for union is never governed by
spiritual ideals, or conscious stand
ards of ethical worth. II knows no
morals"
The professor added that II man

the rose the tiivoace courts would
