for the past seven years had been
employed by City Councilman Oscar

Saturday, April II. No word of the
missing young man has been heard,
and Mrs. Nellie Shields. his mother.
who resides at No. 615 North Thirty
third street, Philadelphia, is frantic
with grief over his disappearance.
Eveland boarded with the family of
his uncle, William Shields, No. 1O7

timation to his relatives that he con-
templated leaving. He always ap-
peared of a CHEEKY disposition. He
went to the Shields home late Satur-
day night a week ago and removed his
clothing while Mr.. and Mrs. Shields
we're shopping. He had left the
Draper store some time previous with
the understanding that he would open
the store the following morning.

of Evelands disappearance and knew
of no reason why he should go away.

tives that he may have enlisted in the

interested in military affairs, having
served and enlistment in Company A,
Organized Militia of Delaware, some
time ago. Eveland was very popular
with his acquaintances.

The Rev. Albany Smith. Jr.. popu-
larly known as Gipsy Smith, opened a
series of three weeks evangelistic SER
vices in Delaware Avenue Baptist
Church last evening. An audience
that filled the edifce greeted the
evangelist at his opening service.
The Sons Of ST. George occupied a
reserved section I'm the centre OF the
church. The music was under the
leadership of Caleb A. Cline, who will
direct each service during the series.
He will be assisted by a large chorus
choir of fifty voices and in addition
there will be special music at each
service. Services will be held nightly
with the exception of Saturday night.
The evangelist hit the chord

I'm the Carpathians the enemy's at

Here. heavy fighting which lasted sew

Directors to Confer on
the Subject Tonight
CHANGES RECOMMENDED
BY fire Underwriters

Members Of the Water Commission
and the Street and Sewer Commission,
with Chief Engineer Edgar M. Hopes,
Of the Water Department, and Chief
Engineer Alexander ]. Taylor, of the
Street and Sewer Department, will
have a conference tonight to try to
agree on harmonious plan whereby
the Water Department can make nee
essary changes in the distribution SER
vice mains in many streets before the
comprehensive city paving project is
started by the Street Department
1t is the desire of the Water Com
missioners TO make many extensions
in the high pressure water service. as
recommended by the National Board
OF Fire Underwriters, before paving is
begun of streets in zones that would
be affected by such changes. In other
words, the Water Commissioners take
the position that from every viewpoint
II would be far better for a plan to be
agreed to that would permit necessary
changes in water distribution service
to be made before streets are paved,
rather than do the paving first, which
streets to be opened in the near future.
While no opposition has developed
to the plan the Water Commissioners
have in mind, the conference tonight
is to consider the question thoroughly
in order to determine whether or not
the Street and Sewer Department is
willing for the Water Department to
work out the engineering problem
involved, and then lay the water
mains, before paving is started on
streets that will have to be dug
up to permit of changes in water
mains.
AS far back as January IL the Wa.
ter Commissioners presented the sub
ject to the attention of City Council
and pointed out the necessity of re
newing and extending the distribu
tion system before street paving wal
started. asking for list Of streetl
