making the moose permanent feat
ure of the wild life of the state.
Beaver are plentiful in some locai-
ties and increasing rapidly under
protection. Bear should be protected
by closed season as they are valu-
able, particularly for fur.
The economic value of the birds is
enormous, particularly on account of
their aid to agriculture horticulture
and forestry.
The protection of non-game birds
is receiving more attention and clubs
and societies are being formed for
this purpose. Schools and individuals
are encouraging the placing of bird
houses and feeding stations, all of
which has a beneficial effect, and an
increase is noted.
The game bird situation is not SO
satisfactory, as the depletion of
grouse has become alarming. The
scarcity of the partridge or ruffled
grouse is noted everywhere, and prai-
| RE chickens are few except in Ger
tain limited area. There are not
enough prairie chickens and other
grouse in Minnesota to warrant
shooting them unless conditions can
be improved. The remedy proposed
| is refugees and closed seasons and pro-
lection from natural enemies.

Bishop Berry Protests
Against Cash Revivals
Special to the Telegraph

Pittsburgh. Pa. April 1S. - In an
address before the Methodist ministers
of Pittsburgh and vicinity yesterday
Bishop j. +. Berry, Philadelphia, de-
nounced commercial evangelism,
and declared the shunting of the pas
tors 10 the background by tabernacle
machinery" was a disastrous blow to
the evangelistic effectiveness of the
church. He said, in part:
II am absolutely opposed to this
highly-organized tabernacle form of
EVANGELISM. I would like to take away
this temptation to commercialism,
which is sapping the very essence OF
religion out of the Gospel | can give
inside facts to show you that l know
what I am talking about. Everything
that is done during the campaign is
done with a view of making the col
lection on the last day a large free
will offering. Everything is money
money, money.
THE home minister may do little
personal work, such as taking UP
cards and ushering; but he is entirely
left out of the real work. And when
YOU rut the pastor out of the evangel-
istic field you strike a disastrous blow
AT the evangelistic effectiveness of the
church. The evangelists usually are
men who are unable to fill charges
ard have been placed where they are
by the graces of the Bishop"

George W. Harris governor of the
third district of the International AS
sociation of Rotary Clubs, of Wash
ington, was guest of honor at the noon
luncheon of the Harrisburg Rotary
Club to-day. George w. Mumma, vice
president, presided and made the in
troductory speech.
Mr.. Harris is a photographer of
Presidents and one of his stories had
TO do with the first time he was called
upon to photograph a Cabinet meet
ing. 1t was when Roosevelt was Presi-
dent and he told 1t to illustrate the
necessity of business men getting the
views of their working forces on all
matters pertaining to the conduct of
the concern. At the head of the Cabi-
net table sat the President, said he,
and in turn each Cabinet member re-
cited the story of his department.
Then each member was called upon
to give his views concerning the prob
lens presented. and finally the Presi-
dent spoke. reviewing the whole sit
uation as presented through the varied
opinions outlined, and upon this con-
sensus of opinion the Cabinet came to
a conclusion.
Mr.. Harris suggested that this
method of procedure might be helpful
also in meetings of the Rotary Club.
His address was sparkling with wit
and wisdom and for the most part he
told what Rotary clubs were doing in
the way of entertainment and for the
good of their communities the coun-
try over. So excellent was the speech
that it was nearly = o'clock when the
meeting broke up.
Tonight Mr.. Harris will be the
| guest of the club at n meeting in the
Public Library, after which the mem
bers and their ladies will go TO the
Majestic Theater. with Floyd Hopllin:
as host. and will enjoy vaudeville
bill provided by the Rotarians them
selves. The Public Library meeting
will start promptly at 7.30.

Lancaster Men Pledge Them

May Not Be Certified

, Lancaster. Pa, April 1S.-The office
of the Secretary of the Common
wealth. which on Saturday refused to
accept and file the statements of DR..
David G.. Martin and John +. Smith,
candidates from Lancaster county for
delegates to the Republican national
convention, pledging themselves ~
the support of Theodore Roosevelt,
this morning accepted and filed new
affidavits and statements submitted
by DR.. Martin and Mr.. Smith sub
stantially the same as the one rejected
on Saturday.
The question remains open of
whether the Secretary of the Com
monwealth will certify to the county
commissioners of Lancaster the in
struction to print below the names OF
these candidates on the official ballot
these words: Promise to support
Theodore Roosevelt for president OF
the United States
Counsel notified the office of the
Secretary of the Commonwealth to-
day that IL the refusal to file the state
ment was insisted upon mandamus
proceedings would be instituted at
once.
Officials at the office of the Secre-
tary of the Commonwealth denied to-
day that they had ever rejected the
petitions. Chief Clerk Thorn stated
that he had informed the men who
presented the papers that the declar-
alton would be certified according to
the form in the act. He still held to
that position to-day and the chances
are that unless legal proceedings are
started and an order made the Roose-
welt declaration will not be filed aus
presented.

ages. 1t was averred and not denied
that the plaintiff had neither expressly
accepted the act nor rejected it.
Mr.. Reed also contended that the
part of the act which directs that an
acceptance of the provision of Article
III shall be conclusively presumed Un
less there be an express statement in
writing that the act is not intended
to apply. makes the act compulsory
and therefore the act attempts to
abridge the rights of contract.
1t was further contended that the
act is in violation of Section 21 of At
ticle 3 of the Constitution i'm that it
permits no act of Assembly shall limit
the amount to be recovered for injur-
les to person or property.
