CUT ON PRESIDENTS PRAYER
Episcopalians Not To lntercede For
Long Life and Prosperity for
The Chief Executive.

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 1S.-The house
of deputies of the general convention
of the Protestant Episcopal church
voted to eliminate the special prayers
for the president of the United States
from morning and evening prayer SER
vice and to substitute for them a
prayer for the safety and preservation
of the nation. The same prayer will
be used in both services.
AS 1t is now in the prayer book,
the morning prayer asks for the presi-
dent the boon lin health and prosperi-
tyy long to live" and that he finally
may attain everlasting joy and fe-
licity. The new prayer as adopted for
both services, while asking that the
president and all others in authority
be given the wisdom and strength to
know and to do Thy will" makes no
reference to long life, health, prospect.
ty or eternal felicity.
The house also voted, despite vigor.
Gus protests, to omit the words from
"the governor of this state" from the
evening prayer, 1t being argued that
"all others in authority" included the
governors.
This change which was adopted al
the suggestion of the commission or
prayerbook must be approved by the
house of bishops and by the next gen
eral convention before 1t can become
effective.

Des Moines, Oct. 18.-Sam King is
again, according to report of Warden
j. G. Sanders made to the governor.
He is in for breaking and entering
now serving his fourth term and each
time having been found guilty of the
same offense.
King presents a problem for Grim
biologists. In 1901 he was sentenced
for breaking and entering and served
two years in the penitentiary. In
1904 he was sent up again for break
ing and entering. He served four
years. Immediately on being re-
leased he broke into another dwell
ing and was sent back in 1908 to serve
ter years.
With good time Off he was released
a short time ago. He went to Wash
ington' county and for the fourth time
he broke into a building and was sent
up for term not to exceed ten years.
The authorities have not been able
to reform King. He is now 35 years
of age. Each time he secures his
freedom he follows up his old trade
of burglary.
The report of Warden Sanders for
September shows that the epidemic
of escapes has been entirely checked.
There was not one man got away
from tn Fort Madison prison during
that month.
During September the board of
parole released seventeen of the Fort
Madison men on parole. Jobs were
found for each man before being pa
