The speaker said he bad learned that the only place the young men of the city had to spend their evenings was in saloons and a hotel lobby,' and in the absence of a better place, It was the duty of the people to unmolest the .saloons till a proper place for entertainment was obtained. From a business man's standpoint he made a great impression - upon his hearers and he undoubtedly did the Y. M. C. A. cause great good in this city. Other Speakers of Evening.

A. from the standpoint of the business man. Prof. D. W. Ellabarger next dealt with the Y. M C. A. work from "the standpoint of thei school teacher and Dr. S. R. Lyons dealt upon the work as the ministers of the city see it. Closing the program of toasts, Secy. Charles 1L Brown" spoke to the men upon just what it would take to errect a modern Y. M. C. A. building, and gave them a short description of what the building would be and the cost of the same, and also told them of the work they would have to do to erect a building, such as Richmond needed.

SECY. TAFT WAS WITH HIM GOVERNMENT WITH RELUCTANTLY RETIRES FROM SAN FRANCISCO AND TURNED MATTER OVER TO LOCAL AUTHORITIES. f Publishers' PresI "Washington. D. C, Nov. 14.--No ofnciai corroboration can oe secureo. t here relative to the sensational investigation into relief funds in San Francisco which it is claimed President Ioosevelt has investigated. It, has been an open secret for months that the president and Secretary of War Taft, of the National Red Cross, have been dissatisfied with the way relief funds have been handled in the Golden Gate City. Immediately following the earthquake the war department took absolute charge of the situation under direction of the President, who ordered that all supplies should be disbursed fhrough expert accountants in the army. He arranged for the preparation and publication of weekly statements of receipts and disbursements. Within a few weeks the mayor of the city and prominent officials raised the cry that they were being discriminated against and that inasmuch as the calamity was in a sense a local one the patriotism , of the citizens of San Francisco should not be put under a cloud by having outsiders take charge of the relief disbursements. The government reluctantly retired from the position which it had contended would create a greater feeling of confidence throughout the world and turned all funds and supplies not received through the National Red Cross over to the local committee. It is remembered here that during the summer, reports came from Canada that a $23,000 contribution from that government to the stricken city had never been acknowledged. The determination of the citizens committee to secure the six million dollars still in possession of theNational Red Cross to further their ideas of building improvements met with very much disfavor and proved a failure.

THAW CASE COMES IIP III DECEMBER

District Attorney Jerome Will Take Personar Charge of Prosecution. WILL NOT LAST VERY LONG PROBABLE THAT THAW'S LAWYERS WILL INTRODUCE BUT TWO MAIN WITNESSES, MURDERER AND HIS WIFE. Publisher' Preasl New York, Nov. 11. The trial of ! Harry K. Thaw, for the murder of Stanford White will be called before Recorder Coll", in Part I, General Sessions Court, on Monday, December 3, or Tuesday, December, 4. Inasmuch as" Recorder Goff goes on the supreme court bench on January 1st, the Thaw j trial will certainly be over by that date. It may not last longer than two weeks. In case there is apparent likelihood of the proceedings running Into January, night sessions will be held to hurry the case to a conclusion. District Attorney Jerome will take personal charge of the case. His chief assistant will be Francis Garvan. All the evidence for the prosecution has been assembled and evel will be in readiness when the case is called. Thaw is so anxious "for a speedy trial that there is no prospect of the defense asking for a postponement. In presenting the case for the people, Mr. Jerome will probably not consume more than four days. He expects simply to show how and when Thaw shot Stanford White, and that Thaw had previously made threats tto kill the architect. It is said he will not undertake to go into the tangled, turbid cross currents of the lives of Thaw, his chorus girl wife and the man he murdered, except so far as Is necessary to show a sequence of events leading up to the tragedy on the roof of Madison Square Garden. It is more than possible that Thaw's lawyers, putting all their hopes on the unwritten law, will Introduce only two main witnesses Harry Thaw and Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. In that event the prosecution, in rebuttal, will offer only such evidence as tends to discredit the wife's statement against the memory of her husband's victim. For its importance, the trial may be the shortest in the history of the criminal courts of New York. N0 SHOWER WAS SEEN Heavy Clouds Hid the Antics cf the Meteors If There Were Any Last Night.

COAL FAMINE IS LIKELY On Account of Falling Thermometer Central Kentucky Is Threatened With Coal Shortage. exlngton, Ky., Nov. 14. With the thermometer steadily falling, Lexington and Central Kentucky is threatened with the worst coal famine known in years. Snow began falling at 11 o'clock and continued throughout the day. On account of the short supply of coal, prices went up twice during the day and dealers predict that coal will be selling at seven dollars a ton before the cold spell is over. To Investigate Charges. I Publishers Press! Washington. D. C, Nov. 14. The Department . of Justice was advised that Assistant Attorney General Russell, who was sent south to investigate peonage charges is moving promptly. A number of Indictments have been returned by the federal grand jury in Georgia.- Judge Russell has left for Florida where it is charged most flagrant abuses exist. The humane society of the state is assisting in the investigation. Bridges Inspected.

Bulletin of Health for October Shown That Tonsilitis Was Most Prevalent Disease and Typhoid, Fever Was Second.

The October bulletin . the state Board of Health just issued says: Tonsilitis was the most prevalent disease. Typhoid fever was second and then followed rheumatism, bronchitis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, influenza, diarrhoea and pneumonia. The health was not as good in this October as in the corresponding month last year, although the deaths were fewer. There were 118 cases of smallpox reported from 9 counties with 3 deaths. The disease was epidemic in Jefferson and St. Joseph counties; two of the deaths occurred at Madison and one at Jeff ersonvi lie. Typhoid fever was very prevalent. There were K1BBEYS DEFEATED BUSINESS COLLEGE Haberdashers Down Bookkeepers in a Hard Fought Basket Ball Game) NEW TEAM IS ADMITTED HUBERT SNAVELY HAS QUINTET WHICH WILL TAKE PLACE OF Y. M. C. TEAM WHICH DROPPED FROM LEAGUE. In the only gam played in the city basket ball league last night, at the Garfield school gymnasium, the strong Kibbey team triumphed over the Business College representatives by the close score of 22 to 17, and had it not been for the excellent work of forward Eggemeyer, the Business College lads would have walked away with the game. It was nara lougnt irom tne start, and was almost anybody's game up until the last five minutes of play, when the Kibbeys pulled away from their rivals. Owing to the fact that the Y. M. C. basket ball team has withdrawn from the league, the T. A. P.' remained idle last night, and did not receive the much coveted chance of fattening their percentage account. Although but very few games have been played in the league this year, it lookss though the Kibbeys will give the T. A. P.'s a hard run for the championship. At a meeting of the managers of the league in the office of Principal Heironimius last night, to consider the matter of taking in anottier team to fill the vacancy caused by the withdrawal of the defunct Y. M. C. team, it was iecided that the Independents, managed by Hubert Snavely should be admitted. Snavely's team is compos ! ed of young players but regardless of i this fact, which handicaps them to a considerable extent, tney are consiaered worthy of admittance to the league. to the kindness of tne scnoot Doara in letting them have the gym last year. There is also a fear that if the games are not a paying investment at the Coliseum, that the league cannot again secure the gym at Garfield. First Snow of Year. The first real snow of the year fell last night in such quantities that a v , llgnt COVer Was IcHU -" All day yesterday the weather sages of the city predicted snow, "owing to the heavy atmosphere and it did not cause much surprise to them last night when the snow began to fall in earnest. Had it not' been for the fact that the "beautiful" melted almost as fast as it fell, a good thickness would have been seen upon the streets this morning. The snow .egan falling about nine o'clock and continued until almost two o'clock. UNIFORM DIVORCE LAW HAS BEEN AGREED UPON r Publishers PrssJ Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 14. With the sanction of every state represented except New York, the delegates to the National Congress on Uniform divorce laws, which closed its sessions In this city tonight, adopted a form of uniform divorce which is to be recommended to the different sfates legislatures to be passed. The sanction of New York was withheld because the proposed new statute recognizes more causes for divorce than the one statutory case recognized in New York that of adultery. The Curme Funeral. Funeral services for Arthur A. Curme, Sr., were held at the home j-es-terday afternoon at two o'clock and at the First M. E. church at 2:30. At the church the Rev. Mr?

DEMAND LAW BE FULLY ENFORCED

Polish National Alliance Will See that Woodvilie Wreck Is Investigated. ADMISSION OF ENGINEER MAN IN CHARGE OF FIRST SECTION OF IMMIGRANT TRAIN SAYS THAT HE MADE A MISTAKEMEANS GREAT DEAL. tPubltthrs rressl Chicago, Nov. 14. Indictment of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad officials responsible for Monday's wreck near Woodvilie. Ind-, in which between sixty and one hundred lives were lost, will be demanded by the Polish National Alliance of America. Announcement of the Alliance's plans was made by President J. F. Smietanka, following a conference with Coroner Carson of Porter County, Indiana, who came here to push his investigation today. "If the proper authorities fail to take up the case the AH'ance will do so," said President Smietanka. "If we can do nothing else, we shall be able to improve American railroad regulations which regard immigrants aow as little better than cattle." The death in a hospital here of Darlad Palovicz, one of the wreck victims, has brought the Cook county coroner into the case. The Illinois and Indiana officials will act together in the case. "I am confident," says Coroner Carson, "that eighty or n'nety persons were killed Instead of the fifty reported by the railroad." The investigation of the disaster may be simplified by the admission of Engineer Frank Dalnour, of the first section of the immigrant train the section that escaped that he made a mistake. "I whistled three times," he says, "when I passed the freight train that afterward struck our second section. This was to notify them that another section was following. I received no answering signal and it was my duty to stop and investigate. That's where I made my mistake." Brlefleas Jadce. It is a tradition of the United States supreme court that the late Justice Gray, who won worldwide distinction as a member of that great tribunal, never tried a law case. The reason of this might have been that he went on the bench In Massachusetts so soon after be was admitted to the bar that neither , the opportunity nor the necessity for practicing his profession was presented. Of his successor. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., the same statement is made. His career has almost exactly paralleled that of Justice Gray. Even the great Justice Story, who ranks -with Marshall and Kent as a commentator and Interpreter, Is said never to have been .called upon to practice before the bar. A man's good Intentions may do hi heart credit, but they are often a sad commentary upon his executive ability. Misapplied kindness is about as valuable as a hot poultice on a door knob.

It is probable that oftentimes th wife of a ball player can tell more accurately why It Is he muffs a ball or makes a bad throw than he could himself. Borne of the wives of the Pirate players attended every game 'played here durlug the season and have alternately heard their husbands cheered to the skies as heroes worthy ot a place n Mount Olympus and at other times have seen them the targets of the malcontents in the bleachers. "What are the feelings of a player's wife when she hears the fans yell to 'take him out? " said the wife of one of the players whose husband Is a pitcher. "Why, when I first heard It I wanted to cry and get out of the grounds as quickly as I could. I knew my husband was pitching the best ball be knew how, but some of them managed to hit It two or three times, and" those bleacherltes kept np the howl, 'Take him out,' until the manager finally did It "When the game was over I told him I never wanted to come and see another game; that I couldn't bear to see bun made the target for such a gang of rowdies as were In those bleachers. We hadn't been married long then, bat he Just laughed and said that what they said one way or the other didn't amount to anything. He told me that the same crowd that were yelling to 'take him out would be wanting to take him off the field on their shoulders the next day maybe and that their applause was just as unreliable as their hisses. Of course, he said, a man would rather be applauded than shouted at, but a baseball crowd was the most fickle of any kind of sports and that It didn't make any difference what kind of men attended the game, they were all the same way If things didn't go right. As a rule, he said, be never paid any attention to the howls of the crowd, but he knew there al ways comes a time in the career of a ball player when the howl Take htxn out means something, and when that ' time comes the player had better get oat himself. "But, just the same, I never get orec feeling bad when I hear the crowd yell at my husband, although I hare got sd I don't care as much as I used to. Probably lots of people think baseball Is easy work, but It Is an awful strain on a man, and after a few years I hope my husband will settle dowm to something else." Pittsburg Press.
