SPIRITED MEETING
OF LOCAL STONEMEN

room. A motion ousting the reporters
was adopted.
In insisting that the newspaper rep
resentatives retire, one speaker said
they wanted no report of their meet
ing to reach the outside world through
the newspapers, and that the differ
ences in the ranks of the Stonemen
had already been given too much pub
licity.
About 200 men attended the meet
ing. II was later learned that some
time after the reporters had been ban
ished the Rev Mr.. Jackson was made
temporary chairman and the meeting
thrown open to the public, but this,
Of course. was after the scribes had
departed.
At this open meeting Harry Bax
ter. Of Philadelphia, now a member
OF the United Protestant Fellowship,
read the minority financial commit
tee report Of the Philadelphia Stone
men. II was the choking off OF this
report that caused the split in the
Philadelphia Stonemen some days
ago. This report suggested that an
executive committee from each ward
in Philadelphia be named to assist
DR.. Stone in the work and also that
a financial committee be named to
relieve DR.. Stone of the burden Of
looking after the finances in con-
nection with his other duties. When
this report was offered at the Stone
men meeting in Philadelphia some
time ago. IL is understood that the
DR.. Stone faction refused 10 allow
the minority reDuort. to be read and
the bolt" followed. The boilers con-
tend that the original Fellowship is
too much Of a One-man organiza-
ton.
While the local meeting did not
come to any definite decision last
night as to just what faction they
will follow 1t is understood that an
other meeting will be held shortly
when DR.. Stone will be given an OPP
portunity TO state his position per-
sonally.

MISS HOLTON Wins
THE DUPONT medal

Miss Elma Holton Of this city, has
been awarded the Mrs. Alfred |. du-
Point gold medal for the largest num-
her of blue ribbons won by an entrant
in the sewing section at the Delaware
State Fair. Willard +. Davis is supply
ing the winners name and will pre-
sent the medal next week.
Mrs. duPont's gold medal for the
best loaf OF wheat bread was awarded
to Mrs. Amelia p. Baldwin, as prev
iousIy announced. but an interesting
feature has developed as a result OF
Mrs. duPont's educational idea and
the following statement made by Mrs.
4. X Shakespeare. the cooking Judge,
is made:
THE loaf which won FIRST prize was
FIRST OF all. very attractive both in
shape. size and even color. Many
OF the loaves we're either scorched on
the bottom or underdone. Some
loaves we're too large to slice neatly
and we're baked too quickly and we're
consequently soggy. The center OF a
good loaf OF bread Is elastic when
tapped with the finger.
THE prize loaf was not too sweet
nor too salty. a common fault In
homemade bread. neither was there
any odor nor taste Of yeast about II.
II was fine7grained and altogether
was an excellent loaf OF bread in my
opinion.
Some OF the bread exhibited was
decidedly warm, having probably
been taken from the oven within an
hour OF the time for the close OF en-
tries and II is not possible TO Judge
such loaves fairly. 7 spoke to several
Of the women about their bread and
they asked me many questions"
Signed p. x. Shakespeare
This statement answers many in
quiries which did not reach Mrs.
Shakespeare personally and will
doubtless aid many housekeepers in
their future baking. AS has already
been announced, Mrs. Amelia B. Bald

No AGREEMENT ON
NEGRO BISHOP PLAN
P, E. Church Convention
Will Discuss Two Re-
ports on the Question
MINORITY FAVORS
SUFFRAGANSFOR WORK

The increase of negro communi-
oants In the Episcopal church in the
South has, for some years past, led to
the organization OF separate congrega-
tons with ministers Of their own race.
They are now asking for revision OF
this system which will also give them
bishops of their own race.
The General Convention of 1913,
which met in New York, appointed a
commission of bishops, clergy and
laymeD to consider this question. The
commission, of which the bishop of
North Carolina is chairman, has just
issued its report This will be dis
cussed at the convention TO be held at
st. Louis in October.
The commission was unable to
agree upon a definite plan, and will,
therefore present majority and mi
nority reports. Those signing the
former, including the bishops OF
North Carolina, Texas and MISSISSIPPI
nj recommend the grouping OF the
negroes OF the southern diocese into
one or more missionary districts over
which colored bishops would be
placed. They are supported in this
recommendation by the lay members
from Virginia and Rhode Island.
The minority report signed by the
bishops of South Carolina and Geor
gia. the Rev. DR.. Stires Of New York
and Judge Joseph Packard of Balti-
more. opposes the creation OF new
missionary districts and favors the
election of suffragan bishops for this
work.
For several years past the foreign
missionary district of Liberia has been
under a Negro bishop, the RI. Rev
DR.. Ferguson. His recent death Is
regretted throughout the whole churcf
his administration having been con
spicuously successful.

MANY IMPORTANT
PAPERS DISCUSSED

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-. Sept, %. - The
greatest convention in the history or
the National Association OF Life IN
derwriters closed in blaze Of glory
Thursday night with a banquet at the
Missouri Athletic Association. In ad-
dition to the animated short talks on
business getting. Wednesday was
marked by an address by Secretary
OF War Baker and an Grafton by Ray
mond Robins, OF Chicago, the former
Progressive leader. Secretary Baker,
in extOlling the virtues OF insurance
went one step further and pleaded for
such a policy of insurance among the
nations OF the world as would result
in a permanent peace.
One of the really great addresses
Of the convention was that of Festus
]. Wade. president of the Mercantile
Trust Co Of ST. Louis. In which he
stated that he was first insured 80
years ago, when he did not know
where the premium money was com
ing from. and now he is expanding
$500 monthly in premiums. 81 re
gard every man and woman who sole.
its a life insurance policy as a public
benefactor," he said. II know OF no
investment | have ever made which
has given me as much comfort and
solace as my life insurance. Why
bank and trust company officials can
not see the value OF having bad loans
paid by life insurance policies Is be
yond my comprehension" AT Mr.
Wade's suggestion his trust company
has insured all its employees for the
benefit Of their families.f
The election of officers resulted in
the selection of J. Newton Russell
Jr., OF Los Angeles as president; j,
Stanley Edwards OF Denver and Law
renee Priddy Of New York, vice-pres'
idents: A. C. Larson OF Minneapolis
secretary, and J. W. Bishop OF Chat-
tanooga. treasurer.
For the next convention, New Or
leans was selected.
craftsmanship training courses and
the organization OF States were dis
cussed. Business insurance also
claimed attention. Numerous cups
were awarded in the essay and mem
bership contests.
The Delaware Association OF Life
Underwriters was represented by
Charles B. Palmer, its secretary, who
is also the Delaware member OF the
national executive committee. Mr.
Palmer states that he never attended
a better handled convention nor one
with more pep" At the close Of the
banquet Eastern delegates left st
