TRIBUTE PAID TO
FOUNDER OF CHURCH
Greatest Legacy George Fox Left to Quakers Was His Ministry.
THE INSTITUTE CONTINUES.
8EVERAL SPEAKERS PARTICIPATED IN DISCUSSIONS AT EARL- , HAM COLLEGE LAST NIGHT AND TODAY.
"The greatest legacy that George Fox left the church was his ministry; for he had his call and qualification from God and a very definite and most gracious message to deliver to the people," stated Dr. Newlin of Noblesvill. In his address to the Ftlends' Bible institute at Earlham college last
evening. George Fox has unconsciously left his autobiography in his Journal; a book filled with the spirit of the man who was himself filled with the spirit of God. W. L. Wakinson some two years ago said 'Benjamin Franklin flew his kite into the air and brought down electricity Fox went higher and brought fire down from the throne of God. Few men have ever had greater grace and courage to speak in boldness and yet In love with the whole council of God. At the conference held at five O'clock; yesterday afternoon, the subject for discussion was "How we should spend our Sundays." Very interesting talks were given. "The views of the other churches are not so different from the Friends' as they used to be," was the statement made by Richard Haworth. "The pastors should not be invited to big dinners on Sunday," said Dr. Newlin, a well known Friend. "The question of rest on the Sabbath Is of great importance. The states should pass laws towards furthering the observance of Sunday," Charles Tebbetts, secretary of the Five Years meeting of Friends, said. Others who took part in the discussion of the question were Elbert Russell, Morton Pearson, Ada Elliott Lee, Calvin Bray, and Mrs. Harrison, who said "Children should be taken to Sunday school and services in the morning and the remainder of the day they should be taught to spend in quiet pleasures at home. Today's Sessions. The- session of the Institute this morning was a most Interesting one. At this meeting three excellent addresses were heard, J. K Randolph on "Deuteronomy," Dr. Leary on "The Fertility and Beauty of Palestine," and Eliza C. Armstrong on "A History of
Friends Missions." In the first lecture Mr. Randolph
gave a scholarly discussion of . "Deuteronomy," the last book of the covenant Speaking on Palestine, Dr. Leary, who followed Mr. Randolph, said in part: "To an American the fertility of Syria Is at first disappointing. When 1 first went there I despised it. Then t excused it and finally I loved it. I had to learn to look for things in Syrla. Flowers of great beauty and infinite variety are abundant. Orchards of oranges and olives bear the best fruit In the world. The moonlight nights are a marvel and the moonless nights light enough to ses the time by your watch; The sunsets are re markably beautiful."; Missionary Revival.

The General Demand of the Well-informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its component parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale ' by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.
work. The London yearly meeting leads all other Friends' meetings in the amount paid per member for this work. The first station by the English Friends was established in India and soon after one in Madagascar. The first work undertaken by American Friends was In Syria through the influence of Ell and Sybil Jones. In 1871 Samuel M. Purdie was sent to Mexico. This was really the beginning of our missionary association. Stanley Pamphry by his advice and suggestions, had great influence In the appointment of members of this organization by the yearly meetings. The women's F. M. A. was later organized. Another important organization is the Industrial Mission In British East Africa, started through the Influence of Willis R. Hotchkiss and Arthur B. Chilson. "A most important work was the establishment of a school for girls at Ramallah. Hussey Institute for Girls is in Mexico. It would be impossible In the limit of this paper to take up In detail the work of the separate missions."

BIG IMPROVEMENTS MADE ON BUILDING
Finley School Now Undergoing Repairs.
The improvements of the First Ward school building, better known as the Finley school are rapidly nearing completion. The building is being wired with electricity as this is one of the darkest school buildings in the city. There will be about 70 lights installed which will remedy the evil conditions. When this work is completed, the frescoers will begin the work of redecorating which has been needed for some time. The stairways are also being Improved and being made more substantial! The Finley school will be one of the best in the city with its late improvements. It is the only building that is lighted by electricity.
Sixteen American athletes will take part in the Paris games which will be held Saturday and Sunday. The French are very anxious to see the work of these Olympic victors. Rube Waddell, the eccentric St Louis American southpaw, again demonstrated yesterday he was back in old time form by making the strikeout record of the season, wriffing sixteen Philadelphia players, all his old team mates. When the Rube is In form he is the greatest pitcher in the business. The Brooklyns, at no time any too strong, are now in a very weak condition with their two sluggers, Jordan and Lumley out of the game on account of sickness. The Hagerstown races are being well patronized this week. The events have attracted about the best class of horses seen in these parts for moons. An excellent bill is offered
today and there will be another good one tomorrow. An Aero club with nineteen charter members bas been formed at Columbus, O., and an effort is being made to have the big balloon races this fall start from that point. Cincinnati played in fine form yesterday, winning from Philadelphia i to 2. Spade turned the trick for the Red3. The mighty Marquard was trimmed again yesterday, Kansas City winning from him by a close score. Wabash college, through its press agent, the sporting editor of the Indianapolis Star, has broken forth with its annual prediction that the Little Giants will again this year mop up the middle west with all football teams that get In their way.

Indications are that the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal church of this city has become involved in an embroglio, as the result of dissension among the trustees. Suit was entered in the Wayne circuit court yesterday by Simpson Oxendine and Walter G. Alexander and a temporary restraining order issued against Noah Williams, William H. Gordon, Walter Dennis, Isaac Smith, Joseph McElroy, George Butler and J. R. Norrel, other members of the board of trustees, and Ulysses Cook, a church member and contractor. Martin Goins, the tenth member of the trustees is named as surety for the plaintiffs. The squabble has developed from the desire of
some of the directors to make certain improvements to the church in addition to those prescribed for under the original agreement. Cook is made a party to the suit, because it is he who the other defendants dr"3 to do the additional work. Some time ago the church decided to make extensive improvements. It is alleged the sum to be expended was fixed at $2,500 and a local loan company provided the money. It is claimed by the plaintiffs in the suit that their names were used as surety and since then the pastor of the church, the Rev. Williams and some of the directors decided upon additional improvements. It is claimed new chandeliers were desired and also some interior decorating. Cook was selected to do the work. The plaintiffs claim they do not wish to be held
as surety for the additional expense Incurred. The contract for the origi
nal improvement as planned was
awarded to William Hendrlx.
The Rev. Williams said today it was
agreed no work should be done other
than that provided for by the contract with Hendrix unless the money was
raised for the payment. He said it
was understood from the beginning, light fixtures should be Installed and the auditorium decorated if the money was subscribed. He said Oxendine, Alexander and Goins did not object to having the room decorated and
even brought in a bid for a decorator
and Insisted the contract be awarded him, but the figures presented by Cook
were lower and the other members of the board contracted with him.
Too Exalted Tastes. A well known family in Catholic cir
cles, blessed with three very small daughters, spent last winter In Rome, where the small daughters were sent
to school. The family, being quite
hospitably Inclined, entertained quite
lavishly some of the dignitaries of the
Vatican.
Returning to Philadelphia, they received a hearty welcome, and among
others some of their priest friend called to bid them welcome home. The mother, always proud of her three small daughters, sent for them to be
brought downstairs to see a father.
After awhile thef came, the three lit
tie golden haired girls, but they only
stood in the doorway of the spacioa
room and refused to come any - far
ther.
The mother, very mortified at such behavior, said to the eldest: "Come here, dear. Don't you remember good Father , who used to come and see
us from the cathedral?" .
There they stood, the three little
blond tots, and, looking most disapprovingly at good Father . the eldest spoke. "We like cardinals," la what she laid. Philadelphia Ledger. '

HIS" own bait:
The Giant Alligator Snapping Turtts as a Fisherman. There is a canny reptile fisherman which makes effective use of the bait which he carries in his own mouth. This is the alligator snapping turtle, a giant among reptiles, known to attain a maximum weight of 144 pounds, with a length of shell of about twenty-eight inches. It haunts rivers flowing inta the gulf of Mexico, Including the Mississippi, where It is common. In appearance and actions it is an enlarged duplicate of the common snapping turtle. Its pale browa hues well match the soft, muddy bottoms on which it lies motionless, angling for fish with the "decoy. The bait is attached Inside the lower Jaw, close to the tongue, and is a well developed filament of flesh, white and distinct from the yellowish mouth part and closely resembling a large grub. While waiting the turtle keeps this grub in motion, giving it the aspect of crawling about in a small
circular course. Its mud colored shell, often studded -with a growth of fine, waving moss, looks like a great round stone, and close to it is a second smaller stone, the head. Close to this smaller stone crawls the plump white grub. A fish sees it and mates a natural mistake, only to be seized by a sudden nap of the powerful Jaws. The Jaws are remarkably powerful. The common snapper, . which attains . only a third of the sixe of his larger relative, will bite a finger clean off. and the alligator snapper could bite through a wrist or foot Chicago Tribune.
