McKinney, Tex., Sept. 18.—The
Senior Kpworth League of the First
Methodist church held impressive
memorial services Sunday evening,
honoring the memory of Mtss Estelle
Lansdale. whose death occurred the
latter part of August. An appropri-
ate program, consisting principally
t»l short talks by leaguers, tear hers
and her pastor, but also including
vocal and instrumental music, was j
rendered. As a practical memorial
tribute, suggested by the pastor,
Rev. C. C. Young, the league will
raise a fund with which to employ
for a year a native Bible woman in

Hannibal, Mo., Sept. 18.—Gover-
nor Thomas R. Marshall, democratic
nominee for vice president, in a
speech here last night, declared that
the democratic party was the only
one which offered relief from po-
litical bosses: He said:
‘It rarely happens that a man
voting a tickets gives his unqualified
tribute Bibles. Very nearly1 the en- [enpport to every plank of the plat-
tire fund was p’edged at this ,orni- 11 ls on,y 8 blllld and dear

Sloux Falls, S. D., Sept.
The Rev. George Biller, Jr., for
three years rector of Calvary cathe-
dral in this city, was consecrated
Episcopal bishop of South Dakota
today. The service took place in
the cathedral where gathered the
large*: assemblage of distil guished
prelates ever seen here. The conse-
crator was Bishop Tuttle of Mis-
souri, the presiding bishop Of the
church. He was assisted by Bishop
Brewer of Montana and Bishop
Mann of North Dakota. The conse-
cration sermon was preached by
Bishop Brooke of Oklahoma. Other
noted churcnmen who assisted in
the ceremony were Bishop Lines of
Newark. N. J., Dr. Frederick Foote

her husband' perfect. A woman,

“I hazard the assertion that just
now the three things which you
most desire to have eliminated are
the boss in politics, the high cost
of living and special privileges.
"Suppose you regard the grievj
a nee of the boss as the most vital.
How does he become vital save as
the agent of special privilege? What
good will aval’ to fight a few little
Irosses and stand by the big boss of
bosses, who, himself, stands upou a
platform of special privilege? The
progressive candidate for president
boasts of being a destroyer of boss-
es Just as the sailor in the “Yarn
of Nancy Bell” boasts of destroying
his comrades. He ate them aii

Negro Republican Club-.
New York. Sept. 18.—The Consol-

United States, 'composed of colored
men, met in third annual conven-
tion in this city today. James W.
Poe of Washington, D. C., is pre-
siding over the sessions, which will
last three days. Talks with the dele-
gates indicate that a livey discus-
sion Is likely to be precipitated in
the convention when a resolution is
introduced to condemn Colonel
Roosevelt Hnd declare against his
presidential candidacy. While many
of the delegates are opposed to the
former president because of his at-
titude in excluding the negroes from
the Chicago convention, there are
others who are ready to stand by
him and who will use every effort
to defeat the adoption of the pro-
posed resolution.

Miss The rose Isclin's Wedding.
New Rochelle, N. Y., Sept. 18.—•
The wedding of Miss Therse Iselin
and Irwin B. Laughlin attracted
many New Yorkers of high social
'prominence to New Rochelle today.
The bride is the eldest daughter oT
Adrian Iselin, Jr., the New York
hanker, at which country home fh®
wedding took place. Mr. Laughlin,
the bridegroom, is first secretary of
the American embassy at Berlin. He
is the brother-in-law of Mrs. Thom-
as Laughlin of Pittsburgh. whose
sister is Mrs. Taft, wife of the pres-
ident. Mr. Laughlin and his bride
will sail for Europe early next
month.
“Jersey Lilly” Coining Again.
London, Sept, 18.—With three
maids and twenty trunks, the latter
packed from bottom to lid with the
latest creations in French gowns and
millinery, Lady de Bathe, the famous
actress who is better known under
her former name of Lily Langtry,
was among the passengers sailing
for New York today. The noted ac-
tress is under contract for a twenty
weeks’ tour of the United States this
winter and she declares positively
that It will be her last professional
visit to the other side.
What solution of the boss and
trust systems does either the regu-
lar or progressives offer? None.
Each la going to gf>! rid of special
privilege by making it ’egal. Each
is in favor of changing the unlimit-
ed partn rship of government and
special privilege into a limited part-
nership.' it is to be vested Interests
from now on, not coated, vested and'
panted interests as heretofore. It is
to be lawful to take a horse but
unawful to tako a team. As a mat-
ter of fact, as long as one citizen
Kan by operation of law take with-
out my consent one cent out of my
salary he has a special privilege and
the law that permits him to do so
is a bigger boss than any man born
of woman.
The heart of the evil, the root of
the wrong, is special privilege. And
against it the democratic party de-
clares it Iras an age-old and never-
enuing fight. Will you be in at
the death. As it was necessary that
Carthage be destroyed that Rome
might uve. so spec ial privilege must
be destroyed that constitutional gov-
ernment may survive.
“Among the legends of the
American people is one to the ef-
fect that the office-holder is uie ser-
vant and not the master of the peo-
ple. Recalling this, let me direct
your attention to the fact that this
campaign has its business side as
well as its moral aqji patriotic sides.
"Since 189(i tlie republican party
has been in exclusive control of
governmental affairs. What has
been done has bcCn done by it;
what has not been done has been
left undone by it.
"Tlie economic system inaugurat-
ed and enforced by the republican
party has not met the approval of
the people. Standpatter and pro-
gressiva both were present at the
birth, at the baptism and at the
marriage of this system to the gen-
eral government. It does not make
any difference whether the stand
patter or the progressive! was the
father or mother, the God-father or
God-mother of the system. Boih
were present, each in the line of
duty to special interests and each
has been accounted for. They
have split now over the spoils and
not over the principle. Each still
hold’s to the principle; eaci, says it
has not worked out w 11 and each
has a new scheme to make it work
well.
"Now, honor bright, men of sehse,
if you had hired a man to conduct
a business for you and he had fail-
ed fo conduct it to your satisfac-
tion, would you rehire him when
his contract had expired upon his
statement that, lie would take his
old theory of doing business and
work it in a new way. Would you
not say to him—:'You have not been
a satisfactory servant; your princi-
ple has not worked well; I will
hire a new man with a new theory
and see if he will be more success-
ful.”
Muskogee, Ok., Sept. 18.—Dan
Bellcliamber. an engineer on the
Missouri, Oklahoma and Gulf Rail-
road, believes he has discovered the
famous “Lost Spaniard” mino which
prospectors and investors have
been looking for the last quarter of
a century, and has organized a com-
pany and secured a mining lease on
a twenty-acre tract of land neaf
Bromide, Ok. The company is
known as the Mystery Mining and
Milling company, and all its stock-
holders are railroad men connected
with the Missouri, Oklahoma and
Gulf railroad.
The railroad men claim to have
secured the location of the mine
from an Indian, who is said to he
over 100 years old. A party of twen-
ty railroad men returned from the
mine today bearing samples which
assayed 200 ounces of silver ore to
the ton and about 6.'! per cent lead.
There are a number of old mines
In Oklahoma, where early settlers,
Indians and outaws are supposed to
have mined lead with ' which to
make bullets.
The "Lost Spaniard” mine, how-
ever. dates back to the days when
the Spaniards of Mexico made fre-
nuent trips through this country.
The shaft of the Mystery mining
company’s mine is about twenty-
seven feet deep. It lias caved in
and the massive timbers forming
the shaft has rotted away. Enough
of the ore, however, projected, so
that samples could be secured for as-
saying purposes. The old Indian who
led Dan Bellchatnber to the spot,
says that the bodies of three white
men were thrown in the shaft,
and the hones are even now resting
beneath the piles of earth formed
by the cave-ins.
Many years ago, arordlng to the
story told by the old-time Indians,
a party of soldiers camped at the
spot where the mine was sank.
Later they moved on, but several
years later a party of three return1-
ed with a wagon and for months
worked sinking a shaft. They
started to haul the ore away when
they were ambushed by Indians
and their bodies cast into the shaft.
The erosions from the sides of the
shaft are supposed to have covered
their bodies.
"The mine is located in a rouge
and hilly country and difficult of
access,” said Bedchamber. "The land
is owned by a 12-year-old Indian
boy and we have secured a least-
from his guardian. I 'believe truly
that we have found the Lost Spani-
ard. Our company is composed of
all, railroad men with the exception
of James Bellclvamber of Allen, Mo.,
a brother of mine who
ls interested with us. We have rais-
ed $20,000 and are going to develop
the property.”
