PRESIDENT BR COLLEGE WA ' DAY, BUT HE t APPEARANCE. At, the opening session of the State Baptist Sunday School convention and the. Baptist Young People's Union at the First Baptist church last evening, Rev. J. E. Smith, an evangelist delivered the principal address. The meeting was well attended by delegates from the different Sunday Schools and the Young People's Unions of the state and also a large number of local mem bers- of the church. The devotional exercises were in charge of Rev. C. M. IMnsmore, and were very appropriate and impressive. He was followed by Rev. J. E. Smith who spoke on' the subject "Creating an Ideal." It was a very able effort and one of the most Instructive ever listened to. by persona interested inxSunday school work. He held that In or der to instill religious motive power in a person', the' time . to 'commence was when the person was a child. In this way, its religious and, moral; training development would be In unison with Its body. . . v -- . - Session This Morning. This morning's meeting of the joint session of the Baptist State Sunday School convention and B. Y. P. U. opened with a large attendance of the delegates and a few of the members bt the local church. President E. B. Bryan of Franklin college failed to arrive to take charge of devotional exercises and In his stead Mrs. Leslie presided. ' Three excellent addresses were delivered during the morning. Rev. C. R. Parker of Laporte, spoke on the subject, "Field Work from a Pastor's Point of View." Miss Myrtle Huckleberry . then followed with a talk pn "Experiences of a Field- Worker." Probably the best, address at this morning's session was that by Prof. A. M, ; Smalley on , "Reorganization and Graduation." Prof. Smalley claimed that the Sunday School was not a school. Argument was made for its complete , reorganization and to adopt the same course as pursued by the public schools. Under the present system he stated that a teacher taught whatever class she pleased or not at all, a fact which did not serve the best interests of the school.. . BAPTIST, NOTES. Rev, W. G. Everson of Indianapolis who is to address the convention tomorrow morning ,. is a former Richmond-boy and he has spent much, of his time in renewing old acquaintances. He formerly worked in the local shops during the summer vacation of Franklin college, which, institution he attended. From here he secured a prominent charge in Boston, Mass., and within the past year went to Indianapolis.' Delegates to the joint convention have all a rrived. , It is probable that, there are 250 delegates In attendance. They are being cared for by members of the local church. The art exhibit at tbeGarfleld building has been visited by a number of the delegates and all are very much pleased with it. In fact they declare it is one of the most attractive places in the city. Other places meeting with their approval are the Y. M. C A. and Glen Miller Park. The place of holding the 1910 convention will not be decided by the delegates now attending the sessions in this city. Neither is any, money appropriated by the convention. Both matters are in the hands of committees : " ' CASH PECK HURT BY SCAFFOLD FALL Supporting Hook Hits Him in The Head. . While engaged in painting the residence of Miss Sarah Sanderson, 121 North Sixteenth street, this afternoqn, Cash Peck, the well known painter, was seriously injured. A large iron hook which supported the scaffold from the roof, became detached and Tell, striking Peck on the back of the head. His scalp was cut but the skull not Injured. He was rendered unconscious, but recovered soon afterward. He was taken to his home on North Nineteenth street in the city ambulance. . ije. mch a !br jc ASXOW CUm AVE STPXBIOB TO

Haas returned home and will have the Commercial club decide on a course of action and report to the commission June 22. The commission is determined that the Pennsylvania shall obey the order if it is possible to compel obedience. CUPID WAS VICTOR Father's Attempt to Intercept Son's Marriage Was Fruitless. GROOM IS ONLY SIXTEEN An attempt was made today by the father of Everett Bradley to intercept his marriage to Miss Cora Taylor at Covington or Cincinnati. The young man is but 16 years old and his partner in the elopement is six years his senior. The two bought tickets at the Pennsylvania depot for Cincinnati this morning. Young Bradley's father and mother are very much alarmed. They do not want their son to marry. Telephone and telegraph messages were sent to Covington and Cincinnati police to try and arrest the young folks on their arrival or to notify the justices not to perform the ceremony. Young Bradley has been somewhat wayward and has caused his parents a great deal of worry. The young woman has been a roomer at the Bradley home on South Tenth street. It is claimed that last night she stole the young man's clothes away from home for him. She has been employed at a North E street restaurant. City Statistics . Deaths and Funerals. GALYEON.

Desperate Attack Was Made On Mayor of Belief on- -taine by Enemies. THROW KEROSENE BOTTLE THIS WAS WRAPPED IN BURNING MATERIAL, AND WIS HOME WAS THREATENED. BUT WAS EVENTUALLY SAVED. Belief on taine, O.. June 15. What is believed to have been an attempt to assassinate Mayor William E. Niven and burn bis residence, in this city, was made at 3 o'clock this morning, when a burning bottle filled with kerosene was thrown through the large plats glass window of his room. The mayor was away from home and didn't return until the arrival of a Big Four train, p. half hour later.

The bottle filled with kerosene was wrapped in rags saturated with oil, and was blazing when thrown through the heavy window. The curtains, carpets and all the furniture in the room were set on fire, but the fire department quickly responded and extinguished the blaze. Was Dry Candidate. Mayor Niven was elected on a dry ticket two years ago and the only theory advanced is that some enemies must have tried to put him out of business. He is a well known democratic politician, a member of the state committee and last year made a strong race for congress in this district against Ralph Cole of Findlay. Two policemen, standing near his home, heard the crash and the ensuing blaze and s?.w a man running away from the scene, but they thought it was a man going to give an alarm, and did not pursue him. ISON III REPLY Colored Champion Advises Jeffries to Either Fight Or Shut Up. CALLS HIM F0URFLUSHER Boston, June 15. After reading Jef fries statement in Pittsburg. Jack John son made this reply: "I challenge Jeffries either to fight me for my title or henceforth hold his tongue. I believe he is a four flusher to the backbone and to show that I mean business ' I hereby challenge him to meet me in the ring within two months from this date, one round or fifty, for a purse of not less than $30,000 for my end and a side bet of $10,000. Aside from the purse I make one condition that Jeffries shall accept this challenge within ten days from date, and as a token of that acceptance cover my forfeit of $5,000, which I have already posted, within two weeks. IS Reid's Offer to Art Association Can Now Be Carried Into Effect. $500 HAS BEEN SECURED At the meeting of the Richmond Art Association board at the Garfield build ing last evening, it was announced that $500 approximately had , been raised in order to meet the terms or the magnanimous offer of Daniel G.

It was reported to the police this morning that a loaded freight car on the C, C. St L. was broken Into last night.

BRIBERY CHARGE WILL BE TRACED

London Police Active in the Mysterious Ruiz Suicide Case. VANDERBILT VERY ANGRY HE IS SORE AT FRIENDS WHO ADVISED HIM TO MAKE THE ATTEMPT TO HUSH UP THE WOMAN'S DEATH. . ' f - London, June 15. Tlie trial of bribery in the Ruiz case will be tracked to its source. This will be brought about by the parliamentary Inquiry started by Peter Curran, a member of that body. Curran's Question is addressed to Herbert Gladstone, the home secretary whose department includes coroners, prisons and police, and asks: "Whether Mr. Gladstone's attention has been called to recent statements in the newspapers to the effect that an incuest was held at the St. Paneras coroners court on May 19, con cerning the death of Mrs. Ruiz, with out any opportunity being given to newspapers to report the proceedings; whether the customary public notice of an inquest Was given; whether it is the fact that the coroner, when asked afterwards for a copy of the de position; so that they might receive publicity, declined to afford this fac ulty and further whether it is in accordance with custom that coroners inquests should be held in private." Albert !s Gloomy. Despite the fact that Albert G. Vanderbilt has just won the great coaching prize he looks gloomy and is plainly under a severe strain. The truth is that the effort to conceal the tragedy is exciting infinitely more gossip than would have been provoked had every circumstance of Mrs. Ruiz's death been made known at once. "Mr. Vanderbilt is convinced now." said one of his friends today, that the attempt to suppress the facts was the worst possible course and be is bitterly resentful against those who advised it." The notice given in the house of commons that Peter Curran had a question relative to the tragedy put on the printed list seemed to cause Mr. Vanderbilt more uneasfness than anything else. . ,. Every newspaper in London has spoken openly of the suicide and of the secrecy thrown around it and named Mr. Vanderbilt in Its colmuns. He was the hero of cheering crowds as he drove his coach to victory, but when he reached the Marathons finish and dashed into the arena on Olympia, he was haggard, pre-occupied and irresponsive to the enthusiastic cheers that acclaimed his feat of horsemanship. DICK HIS DEFENDER Washington. June 15. Senator Bulkley's amendment limiting the duty on free cigars from the PhiHIpines to $70,000,000 annually, was accepted by Aid rich. Senator Dick defended Aidrich and said the assaults on him were simply a compliment to his ability. con
