About Billy Sunday
Rev William Sunday and several Other Things {

Roy William Sunday and Several Other Things.
We have had quite stir In Richmond. with
some division Of opinion. concerning the Wis
dow of uniting in invitation to Billy sum
day" to hold evangelistic service In the city
at the earliest convenient day. All me secular
prese took hand in the discussion Inc various
Idenominat ional Ministers Conferences debated
lit and voted on it, and the General Ministers
Conference had 1t before the mfor several SEES
lsons 1t was finally disposed OF on Monday
morning. February 8, the General Ministers
IC inference voting by an overwhelming majority
Ito extend the invitation.
Some of our friends have expressed surprise
that the Herald has not taken some prominent
sons why we have thought II best to refrain
from positive and active interest In the mat
In the first place the general policy Of the
Herald is not to mix in disputed local church
affairs But this consideration would not have
been sufficient and we should not be. frank If
we conteuted ourselves with this statement.
/ The fact is that In common with many others
We have been divided in our Judgment Until
recently we knew little or nothing beyond gem
cral impressions of this remarkable man. OF his
methods of work. of the substance OF his mes
sage, and hesi,ated to express decided
Judgment until were able TO do SO with some
degree Of intelligence.
! Iatteriy we have been following quite closely
the full and detailed reports given in the North
American of his meetings in the Quaker City.
The information gathered from this source has
been supplemented by the testimony of various
persons who have heard nun nm IN rnlaaeip PM
we are justified in expressing in moderate
fashion our opinions, formed in the light OF this
that personally the ministry of Mr. Sunday does
mot appeal to U.S. We unable to see why
lin matters so high, serious, tremendously
important IL is either wise necessary to In
woke the language of coarseness and black
guardism. Beyond all doubt the messages OF
this evangelist are loaded with this sort OF
speech and action. We answer only for
ourselves but bound to say that II
I'VE were seeking light on religious problems or
tt.re man
leaders to whom should rather We
cannot in good conscience and sound judg-
lment Justify or defend the reported utterances
I Of Mr. Sunday. They violate all the canons of
good taste. they often startlingly irreverent,
and their intellectual value Is pitfully small
Having said this In all candor and openrcss,
we must now add that, In spite OF these OBJ
,ections and criticisms which. with ne at any
rate are weighty. we are bound to recognize,
and Ne do gladly recognize, the patent and un-
mista ka bic fact that have In this evangelist
la man OF remarkable power and effectiveness.

q THE JITNIY Bus.

The iitney bus, an automobile bus that charges
nickle (which is straight English for jt), IS
having hard rough road to traverse. Opposi-
ton has developed In various cities of the North
u here the bus has been introduced because the
propretors will not admit colored persons to the
vehicles Not being dependent city franchise
grants for the right 10 do business but merely
having license. as any other business the bus
companies claim that they cannot be forced TO
carry passengers they do not desire to carry. It
is rather strange that this discrimination and
this trouble should nave arisen in the North
the South has long since solved the problem and
DOES not bother its head about II, Now We will
watch with interest how the cities concerned
will make their findings.

NO INVESTIGATION NET.

The Board q Police Commissioners acted
wisely In not asking for an investigation Of

no charge - b. investigated. rs this paper has
pointed OUT before the Wee Commission made
no charge nor mention If the Police Commits

WORK. a in It's later reports the commission
makes charges the board VIA almost certainly
lie investigated Whether by It's own yolition or
e,herwise, Until that time an investigation
would be premature. and with no charges m
1srstigate would have small ground on which 10
work.
r. when the Vice Commission makes its -
ther report or reports there are contained any
charges that refect on the Board OF Police Com
raissoners, then there will be ground FOR an
investigation And g fl makes more men

The past, there viii still be nothing To in,estt

on conditions which II finds to exist shall reveal

Ii another matter. A. W. have stated before,
the fact of chief importance at present is the
enforcement OF the Law. No charge that could
be made by Vice Commission could alter or
enlarge on the fact that tho law has not been
enforced in the past. No revelations excuse
tho fact that the law has not been enforced.
No Investigation can paliate or heighten tbe
ofense Of reinforcement No members of tho
beard, nor the Mayor. the Chief Of Police
nave ever contended that the law has been en-
forced IN the past,
In view Of these various considerations, The
public is interested In great question
above anything else. That question is: Will
the Law be enforced in the future? That is what
We want to know, and until know that dc

Therefore. gentlemen of the board tell just

THE PANAMA EXPOSITION UNDER WAY


California will never do things by halves. She
thought the world would come TO sec the Pan.
amapacihc Exposition, but In order to be sure
that everybody would have enough to see and
sufficient chances to spend money, California
ran in an additional Panama California Exposi-
ton at San Diego, to either compete or
operate the may be. with the big show
at San Francisco. Perhaps the San Diego show
is given over To the virtues and prospects OF the
State Of California alone, while the other de
votes itself to the interests OF the world at large
If Californians to be believed in their
slant contentious that their State is the garden
spot OF the world the original site of the Garden
when Adam fed, then will have little diff
Guilty In ascertaininE which one the people of
California will patronize.
But the Panama-pacifc Exposition will have
FAR greater source of competition than smaller
exposition. The European show, we fear. will
prove more fatal to the success of the exposi
ton. War 50 far seems TO prevail over peace,
and the warlike exhibitions may claim greater
Interest than those of peace But at that there
are optimists who have declared that Europe
will be the making Of California by turning the
tide of tourists that way.

English star of Grumpy" will be presented in Henrik Ibsen's Peer Gynt." Famous as a master of make up. an interes sting specimen of his powers is presented. Always cast in ingenue character in which she has gained a wide reputation, Miss Ruby has never had to essay any such role as that of toothless old grandma. Cyril Maude came to her rescue and with "liner" and grease paint repro duced a graphic picture of decrepi- tude upon her face. When in the course of the celebrated story Peer Gynt," himself a broken cid man, re- turns to the friends of his wasted youth none present more pathetic proof of the toll the fast moving years have taken than cid lngrid. When one sees the poor old woman with gnarled hands, squinting eyes and sunken cheeks crouching ftottering over her crooked stick it is almost unbeliev- able that she is impersonated by a mere slip Of girl in her early twen- ties.

ow-"Fatherhcod". Further proof of the uniform excellence Of Broadway Universal features is shown in the vigorous and absorbing play, "Fatherhood," which features Hobart Bosworth in a notable charac- ter portrayal. Mfr. Bosworth is al ways to be depended upon for a play with the punch that appeals to an audience through its intense human interest. Rarely, indeed does a western play get over as this good play, which was both written and pro- duced by MT. Bosworth. The story deals with large-hearted ranchman
 who. partly from lonesomeness and partly through pity. marries girl much younger than himself. Through his absorption in his ranch duties the wife suffers from neglect. and the husband is awakened ito the fact that she is showing more than friendly interest in handsome young rang:
 rider. How he is brought to a sense of his own responsibility, and saves his wife's honor, through the adveni of ltle son, is beautifully and sym
 pathetically told in four reels of swift action. In settings and costumes the play is both realistic and convincing | while the heart-interest provides ] some big scenes, in which Hobart
 Boswcrth's genius is given ample op- ] portunity. This feature is aptly de
 scribed by the phrase-"a big as all

HOUSEWIVES WANT
 THE KIND OF MILK r COST JUSTIFIES
Willing to Pay Higher Price, If Given Proof of
 Getting Moneys Worth.

An enthusiastic and rather lengthy session Of the Housewives league yesterday afternoon resulted in the adoption of a resolution demandins that local dailymen give their GUS toners written. guaranteed analysis of the milk sold. and in the decision to circulate petitions to the city council, for the appointment of a milk Inspector.
 It was, a special session of the Housewives league, and it was well attended Nearly all the ladies had something to say about the increase in the retail price of milk and the consensMs of opinion appeared to be that there was little objection to paving the new and higher price for milk, if the customer is given proof that stlc milk is pure and whole some. 6
 Mrs. H. e. G.sHigginbotham read a report of the Chicago dairy inspec tion service, explaining to the meet ing what Is meant by certified milk"
 The following committee was named to circulate the petition urg
 ing the city council to appoint a milk inspector: Mrs. c. M. Philpot, Mrs. J. B. Speers, Mrs. P. H. Nc Carthy and Mrs. W. Y. Coleman.
 The resolution was adopted unani- mously, demanding that each dairy man. submit to each customer writ ten guaranteed analysis of his milk, showing it to conform to the stand ard in butterfat content and other milk solids, and to contain no adul- terant or preservative."

"Mr. Fisher and have both worked
very hard upon this for some time
and feel gratified TO have won out,

the future aquarium of San Francisco
will owe its inception to Hawaii's
initiative in giving the city this beau.

the building, temporarily and subject
to the order of the territory, the
