Rev. E. Leroy steffey viii Speak at
First Methodist Protestant
Church This
Evening.
INTEREST is INCREASING
Speaker Has Held Week Of Services
and the People Are Showing
Awakening as Result
Of Effort.

Interest has been increasing at ev-
cry service during the week in the
revival services being held in the
First Methodist Protestant church,
Twelfth and Exchange streets. Rev.
e. Leroy Steffey pastor. 1103 Bank
street. Friday evening the pastor
spoke on the subject, Bringing 9th
ers to Jesus He stated that the es-
sential thing to do is to find Him, to
whom we are TO bring men. Andrew
first found Jesus and then took to him
his brother Simon. He. with but a
short acquaintance with the Master
brought his brother. A very great deal
may be done in a short time when
the heart has been getting ready to
meet Christ. The reason it takes some
people SO long to get anywhere is that
It takes them so long to get ready. To
get men as far as Andrew got Peter.
we must get as far as did Andrew
ourselves. When we have found the
Messiah, we can bring others to Him.
Andrew did not write an epistle; he
founded no church: but he opened up
new career to one of the greatest Of
the apostles. Peter finally outshone
Andrew, and yet Andrew is not to be
forgotten when we give credit for the
pentacostal converts. VS. may find
him who may outshine us, him who
may preach a better sermon than
can, sing better than you can. but it
IS our duty to find him and take him
to Jesus. jealousy often prevents Us
from doing this.
The Services on Sunday.
At the Sunday morning service, I'm
medfately following the Sunday school
at $3.50, the pastor will speak on the
subject, Efficiency" The Christian
Endeavor prayer meeting willibe held
at $50 p. m. At 1880 p. m. evangel-
istfc services will be held, the pastor
speaking on the subject. Preparing
for Great Things" The revival serv-
fees will continue throughout the week,
beginning promptly at 1880 each even
ing. No services on Saturday even
ing Mr.. Moody once said, IF we can
only get back to the Word Of God.
then we will have, not just here and
there a revival, but we will be in q
revival all the time. 1t is those chris
tians that are feeding on the word Of
God that are revived all the while.
There is something fresh about athem,
and people are glad to hear them
talk" This revival is an attempt to
"get back to the word OF God" II
you don't want the word Of God, don't
come.

BALDWIN REGRETS
 BRYAN'S ACTION
Former Governor Says That Resig- nation is Misfortune-Com.
 ments on Policy.

New Haven, June 10.-Former Governor Simeon E. Baldwin consid- CTS the resignation of Secretary Bry- an a misfortune. His policy" sail Governor Baldwin, "has been to pro- mote international peace by substi- tuting, in case of differences not to be settled by diplomacy, arbitration for war. The Hague convention of 1907 for the pacific settlement of in- ternational disputes provides among other things, that, in disputes of an international nature involving neither honor nor vital interests, and arising from differences of opinion on points of fact, the contracting powers deem it expedient and desirable that the parties who have not been able to come to an agreement by means of displomacy should, as far as circum- stances allow, institute an interna- tional commission of inquiry to facil- itate solution of these disputes by elucidating the facts by means of an impartial mad conscientious investi- gation.
 Apparently MT Bryan thought that the present circumstances al- lowed some inquiry of this nature into the facts in dispute between us and Germany, as both we and Ger many are parties to The Hague con- vention, and she has twice offered to join with us in instituting such an in- ternational commission of inquiry to ascertain the points in dispute in the Lusitania case, as, for instance, the German government had reason to believe that she was armed and be- longed to the British navy as a re- serve ship.'' rs

HAVE BROKEN LOOSE AGAIN.

After a rest of several weeks the professional men ,got back into base ball harness this afternoon when they c1ashed with St. Thomas seminary team at Elizabeth park, Hartford. Shortly before the battle began Cap tain Dunn decided on Zwick and Con- nelley as the battery to try and wrest back the laurels which the sawbones- barristers' combination relinquished to the seminarians early in the season. If the locals make a good showing in their coming games it is likely that the scribes' aggregation will consider them seriously enough to give them a battle later in the season.

 Destroyed Italian Dirigible.


 Destroyed Italian Dirigible.
 Berlin, June 10, via London, 12:40 D. m-A corresp ondent of the Ma tiona1 Zeitung has sent to his news paper the following description of the destruction of the Italian airship Citta di Ferrara by the Austrian naval aeroplane LAS while returning from an attack upon Plume the morning of June B.. Reports were received early Tuesday morning, the correspondent says, that a hostile airship has been seen heading toward the sea. The L-48 was sent out to investigate, with orders to attack, if possible. The pilot was Marine Lieutenant Chasing while the observer was Marine Cadet von Fritsch. As soon as the air ship was sighted the aeroplane be- gan to ascend and, gaining an advan- tageous position above the airship, it opened fire with a machine gun and a rif1e using special projectile de- signed to set balloons on fire. The airship maneuvered wildly in an en- deavor to escape. It was descending all the time, and finally was almost at sea level | The men on LAS continued firing One of their shots set the Italian air ship afire. The hull was burned and the gondola fell into the sea. Ar Austrian torpedo boat was in the vi l cinity, and in a few moments the two Eofficers and five men composing the crew of the airship had been rescued l None of them was injured, and the!
 were made prisoners on board th' torpedo boat. Then what was lef of the airship went to the bottom"

 The committee protested against the presidents changing his policy of non Interference in Mexico and rec commended that he order and investi- gation into the Colorado elections under the authority or the depart ment of justice. .
 Speaking for more than one mill lion voters" the Mexican memorial says, I've view with grave alarm the implied threat contained in your. re- cent warning to the contending ele- ments of War-torn Mexico. The social ist party is unalterably opposed to armed intervention ana if that is the ] hidden meaning of your changed atti- tude or the situation, then we do l hereby solemnly protest against your ! mandate of June 2, in which you de- clare that this government must pres entity do what it has not hitherto felt at liberty tn do. Lend it's active mor- 1 al support to some man or group of men who can rally the suffering peo- l pie of Mexico to their support in an l effort to ignore, if they cannot unite, l the warning factions of the country l and set up a government which the l great powers of the world can deal l with,
 'sWe feel that the United States will
 best serve the interests of the Mexi-
 can people by not medling or inter 1 fering in the present crisis. We feel l that armed intervention, means the
 practical assassination of the aspira
 tions of the liberty-Ioving Mexican ! people. This course we earnestly 1 protest and will oppose with all the l power at our command, no matter on
 what pretext such action may be 1 based.''
