Named.

C. w. Durrett, George Schell and B
F. Smith were today appointed a com
mittee by President Justice to take
care Of arrangements for the farmers
picnic which was talked over at the
Nauvoo meeting last Wednesday. The
committee will discuss plans for the
meeting and will have charge of a
arrangements.
1t has been suggested that Fourth
of July would be good time for hold
ing this picnic at Keokuk. The pic
mic and an old fashioned celebration
of the day might be combined, and
make most pleasing observance of
the nations birthday None of the
nearby towns in Lee county have an
nounced plans for celebration as
yet, and If the proposed picnic would
not interfere with any other plans, it
is probable that Independence day
will be very prominently considered
as tentative date.
The president of the league has
also named the committee which will
talk to the merchants about keeping
their windows lighted for an addition
al time in the evening. This commit
tee will be composed Of Messrs. LOT
quist, Elmer Mas and Klein.
Both of these committees will get
busy at once on the work before
them, and will have their reports
ready for the next meeting Of the
league.

ALLEGED Bomb Plot.

SEATTLE, Wash, May PA
widespread bomb conspiracy by an
archists was alleged to authorities
here in an affidavit signed by John
Meserve. Meserve is the son Of
Gertrude Vose, tor years an intimate
friend of Emma Goldman. He learn
ed the facts that revealed it while
member of the colony. Meserve in
1913 offered his service to Detective
VIM. Burns to find Schmidt and one
other for the Los Angeles dynamit-
ing. He declared that at this time
he had revealed an alleged plot to
kill John D. Rockefeller by dropping
a bomb from an aeroplane on Rookie
Teller at Tarrytown. He said the
aeroplane bomb exploded in the rooms
Of the alleged plotters in New York,
and at this time Carron, Hanson and
Berg were killed.
Another bomb, with which it WAS
intended to blow up the Tombs pris-
on in New York, was discovered be-
fore it could be used. The same
group, Meserve said, placed the bomo
in the Bronx court house in 1919,
also the bomb in st. Patrick's cathed-
raj.
Meserve said the assassination OF
Mckinley was the work of the same
group. Captain, he said, told him OF
the Mckinley plot and remarked,
"Czolgosz didn't do the job as plan

German Official Statement Tells OF

BERLINfi, May 22.-Several lines Of
British positions on a front OF about
one and one-third miles have been cap

Givenchy En- Gobelle, it was officially
announced this afternoon.
On the northwestern front of Yer

against repeated enemy counter at

gaining a footing in the quarry.
During the night artillery on both
sides was extraordinarily active on
the whole sector.
Our air squadrons yesterday made
repeated attacks with vlsfbly great
success against Dunkirk harbor. An
enemy biplane, following combat,
fell into the seas. -Four more enemy
aeroplanes disabled in combats fell
within our lines.

in the Iowa fight is heightened by re-

BIBLE HIT BY
UNBELIEF u BOATS
General Presbyterian Assembly
Takes Time In Considering
the New York Case.

ATLANTIC CETY. N. j.. May 22.-
Further time for report on the
charges Of heterodoxy against the
New York presbytery and Union
Theological seminary, was requested
by the general Presbyterian assem-
bly, today by the subcommittee to
which the church's dispute was re-
ferred. The request was granted.
The committee held the serious
ness of the issues involved, made
rigid investigation necessary. The
rupture between conservative and
radical wings Of the assembly was
apparently even nearer today. 1t was
rlmored that the New York pres
bytery has presented to the commit
tee an ultimatum detailing to what
extent they will stand responsible
for the licensing of the Union grad
yates whose teachings the Cincin-
natl presbytery held were heterodox
and asserting that they will not &C
ceDt censure.
Despite every effort to suppress it,
a pamphlet by Rev. John Fox, of the
New York presbytery on church
heresies was circulated here today.
The pamphlet has the following
striking Introduction:
1.-THE U boats Of unbelief have
fired another torpedo at the Bible,
blown the very bottom out of the
book of Exodus, the gospel OF st.
Mathews and the gospel OF st. Luke,
leaving the hapless men, women and
children of the churches to take to
boats. RATS and wreckage as they
struggle OH the tossing oceans OF
doubts and negations."
Tho Methodists.
SARATOGA, N. Y, May 22.-The
Methodist Episcopal general confer
ence today decided that adjournment
of the present conference, when TAX
en-, will be to meet again at the call
of the bishops for discussion Of the
union of the Methodist churches,
north and south.
This will permit session in 1918
at the time the southerners are re-
considering the plan of unity of all
Methodists.
Under ordinary circumstances the
plan would not be submitted to the
general conference until 1920.
The conference today balloted on
the selection Of a negro bishop for
Liberia and white missionary SUI
perintendent for the remainder OF
Africa. On the first ballot there was
no decision for the white missionary
superintendent e. S. Johnson, OF
Sioux City, Iowa, led with 297 votes.
]. E. Crowether Of New York, re-
ceived 2l6; and Albert q. Smith.
president of Ohio Northern univers-
ity, 112. For the negro bishop, A. P.
Camphor, of Birmingham, Ala, had a
commanding lead and will probably
be elected on the second ballot to-
morrow.
