PRISOM SUNDAY WAS HOT OBSERVED
Local Ministers Paid Little Attention to Annual Custom in Sermon. DELEGATION TO CARTHAGE. NEWS OF ALL SORTS SHOWS INTEREST IS LIVELY AT TEMPLES OF WORSHIP THROUGHOUT CITY. "Prison Sunday" was not observed as generally this year by the Protestant churches of this city, as it has been in the past. Only a few of the ministers made any reference to the significance of the day. The Rev. Thomas J. Graham, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, was among the few who discussed the subject He spoke of the great problem presented by the prisons and some of the phases of the control of men with which the authorities have to deal. ,A large number of Richmond people went to Carthage, Ind., yesterday to attend the rededicatlon of. the Friends church. President Robert L. Kelly, of Earlham College, delivered the dedicatory sermon, and in the afternoon he gave an address. The new Friends churen has been enlarged and redecorated so that It is now considered one of the best of the Friends churches In the state of Its size. Because the ministers of the city as well as other places have been taking such active parts In the politics of the Btate, the Rev. Robert H. Dunnaway, of ." the Second Presbyterian church, gave a very interesting sermon on "The Preacher's Place In Politics," yesterday. The Rev. Dunaway stated that the minister should not take an active part In advocating one candidate or another, bat should take up the important moral lava as such, as county local option. ' Mr. Raymond Swing rendered the offertory solo at the St, Paul's Episcopal church last evening. It was Dvoraks, "God Is My Shepherd." Many persons, not members of the congregation have visited the "St. John's Lutheran churcn since the dedicatory services have been held and Nhave found the new edifice Is one of the most beautiful in the city. It Is comodlous, handsome and a credit to the congregation that has made the building of the church possible through its efforts. The building is decorated after the mediaeval style of churches which gives a unique appearance that no-other church in the city The Rally day exercises , were held at the First M."BJ.' church yesterday and there was 523 members of the Sunday school present. Special favors were given out and an excellent program was given by various members of the school. The Methodists are rejoicing for they simply snowed under the First English Lutheran Sunday school which, could only count up 353. The attendance contest between the two schools Is getting hotter each Sunday. The plan that has been adopted provides that the school having the largest attendance during the five months of the contest will be given a social by the loeing school. The Lutherans won the first month of the contest The musical program given at the Fifth Street M. E. church proved very interesting to the large congregation present The several numbers given by the quartet composed of Miss Campbell, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sttllinger and Mr. Garver were especially pleasing. HORSE DIED THEN OWHER SUICIDED Despondent at Loss of Only Means of Support. Connersville, Ind., Oct 26. Ora are, 53 years old, despondent over business affairs, committed suicide Saturday night by drinking three ounces of carbolic acid. His wife returned from town and found her husband unconscious. Death resulted in a few minutes. Vare was in the draylng business. A few days ago his horse died and his only visible means of support being taken away, he became despondent Six weeks ago his son Carl, while riding on a freight train, was almost instantly killed, and this son also contributed to the supptt of the family.

WATSON! WATSON! Street parade and torch light procession Wednesday evening. Meet at Republican headquarters, 6:30 p. m.
Affairs of the Sporting World
Charles Olsen writes to the Palladium, "I am training hard for my bout Thursday night at Richmond with the Turk and the Richmond public will see a hard fought contest." St Louis fans are wildly excited over a report in circulation there that John. J. Evers may succeed John J. McClotskey as manager of the Cardinals next year, but as nearly as can be ascertained the basis for the rumor is that both men are labeled John J. An unnamed Chicago capitalist is credited with the desire to purchase the St. Louis National league franchise on condition that he can get the Cubs' second baseman as manager. Earlham fans have no cause to feel downhearted over the team's defeat Saturday by Wittenberg. Earlham really won the contest 6 to 4 and they have the satisfaction of knowing that Wittenberg rooters realize this fact The Quakers also won with two sub ends, a sub lineman and a sub back FOULKE iSOOOTEO Opposite Meaning Given Statement at Indianapolis By Reporter. DEALT WITH WATSON. The Palladium is in receipt of the following self-explanatory letter from the Hon. William Dudley Foulke: . Editor of The Richmond Palladium: In your report of my speech at Caleb Mills hall at Indianapolis, on Tuesday evening, you say : "The position of Mr. Watson, the Republican candidate, the speaker declared, so far as he had heard an expression from him on the subject or knew of it by his record, was opposed to the distribution of spoils." The reporter was in error in regard to this. I said exactly the reverse, that I had had a controversy with Mr. Watson in regard to his effort to exclude the rural free delivery carriers from the classified service, and that I did not approve of his course in this respect but that such a position waa utterly different from the bold, naked generalization of Mr. Marshall, "To the victor belong the spoils," a principle if carried out either in legislation or by administrative action, would lead to the wrecking of our penal, benevolent and reformatory institutions, and against which Mr. Watson was pledged.

in the lineup. t Next Saturday the Quakers will take on the strong Butler team and the game will be played at Reid Field. Coach Vail states that he will put his full strength In this game, Including Larrence, the crack quarterback. Ty Cobb will not be a member of the all-star team which will invade Japan this winter. Mrs. Ty Has stated that hubby will spend the winter hunting in dear old Georgia, and we take for granted that she means what she says. The Mikado will probably be greatly disappointed. As usual, the Carlisle Indians are very strong this year. Saturday they showed their strength by placing Pennsylvania to a standstill, 6 to 6. In the second half the Indians had everything their own way. Poor old Wabash. Kicked back Into the secondary class. It is to weep. The Wabash fans are now beginning to realize the loss they sustained when Coach Cayou left them.
$1, STOCK DISAPPEARS AND HOI FOOHD New York. Oct. 26.

Morse and A. H. Curtis. Evidence also was adduced that a check for $100,000 in favor of Otto Heinze & Co., was Issued three days before the bank suspended, when the cash on band was only $3,000.

Along the coast of Normandy. In France, dogs are sometimes employed In fishing by a few of the elder fisherwomen. One of the latter, armed with a basket on her left shoulder and on the other a pickax with a very long handle, closely followed by her dog, wanders along the shore until she comes to a place where the sand runs for a considerable distance Into the body of the rocks. Here the surface Is usually broken by a number of little mounds at low water. On seeing these the dog becomes excited and runs back and forth, smelling of the little hillocks. In a moment he will begin to scratch and whine like a terrier on watch at a rat hole. On hearing this the woman rushes toward the animal, brandishing, her pickax. On reaching the spot she looks which way the hole runs and then begins tearing up the sand with her implement After half a dozen vigorous strokes out tumbles a conger ell, which Is quickly picked np and flung with great force on the hard sand, stunning the creature, after which It is put Into the basket and the fishing resumed.

Concerning the tomb of Lady Anne Grimstoa In Tewln churchyard, near Welwyn. there is a curious legend. The local story runs that the Lad? Anne who died in 1713 and was th wife of Sir Samuel Grimston of Gor hambury. Herts, doubted the doctrln. of the resurrection and is said to hart declared: "I should as soon think thai seeds would force themselves from th? stonework of a tomb as that a de" body should do so or that trees sbouli' spring forth out of my grave as I ir any form should rise therefrom. Bear witness, my friends, to what . I say If there Is any trnth in the word ci God, mayK seven trees grow from my grave."
