The committee made a tentative report today through Bishop McDowell. The preamble of the report commended the financial system adopted at the laBt general conference and recommended the elimination of duplication In the work of the church, and the church must socialize Christianity and Christianize society.

At the meeting In Tomlinson Hall list night, J. Campbell White, the principle speaker, suggested a campaign by 1,000 men to raise $1,000,000 when a delegate rose to his feet afid asked If there were followers enough to start a campaign to raise $25,000,000 within the next five years.

E. church in the afternoon. Dr. D. J. Ralney, for thirty yfcars a worker on the Bowery, New York, and Dr. Charles M. Boswell, of Philadelphia, corresponding secretary of the Church Extension and Home Missions society, spoke. : At the night session, J. Campbell White declared that there has never been a time that the world was as easily and quickly accessible to the churches as now. He said that China Is now the richest field in the world. Mr. White asserted that the M. E. churches having been behind other churches in financing missions. ."If two-thirds of the protestant church members of America can be led to give as much per member to missionary purposes as the United Presbyterian denomination is given,"

sam Mr. White, "it will be possible to evangelize the world In this generation," he declared. "The per capita of that denomination for missionary purposes during the last year has been $6.11, and other departments of the church have suffered no decrease in appropriations. On the contrary, their appropriations were the largest in America." Civilization Problem. Dr. W. A. Leonard of Seattle, the following speaker on the night's program, asserted that the problem of civilization is one of the city. . "There is still much corruption in political life," he said. "Cities have grown up with their overcrowded slums where men, women and children die prematurely. All evils come to their worst in the great cities. The wealth, rivalry and liberty of the cities bring out the luridness. . Dr. Freeman D. Vovard, editor of the California Christian Advocate, was appointed corresponding secretary of the board of home missions and church extension. He will have headquarters at Philadelphia.

SAVANT TO LECTURE ON TANGO DANCING

PORTLAND JUDGE TO HEAR CASES

PARIS, Oct. 30. The annual meeting of the French Academy is approaching and in another week, Parisians shall have read what the witty and spirited M.Jean Richepin has said about the Tango, which is sure to be interesting, for no Frenchman is more human or possesses a richer or more original vocabulary. There was a time when this meeting of two hundred members of the Cinq Academies, all dressed in their imposing green uniforms embroidered with golden palms and wearing their coquettish little swords, was a very cold and formal affair. Parisians have all

grown delightfully young again, and the warm blood of youth began to rush through the veins of the members of the academy even before young men were rejuvenated, bo of late the tone of the meetings has been free, easy I and light. j Champions Cause. i In choosing for his subject the ! Tango, so severely condemned by many as indecent and suggestive, M. Richepin has simply followed in the footsteps of M. Reinach, who at a similar occasion championed the much calumniated Phryne and M. Bourget, who championed the not less maligned Sappho. j During these last weeks M. Riche- j pin has been making studies in all temples of dance, that is to say all , over Paris. He has applauded Mile, j Rolalre and Mile. Mistinguette and j spent many evening in Lean Poirier's theatre. ,He has studied the Argentine i albums of Sem, the famous cartoon1st, he has watched the Parisianlzed ; edition of the Tango at Bal Bullier and i In Place Pigalle, and has studied its history In musty old volume in the ' Bibliotheque Nationale so he is sure j

to be well prepared for his lecture

The Hipskind road case will not be heard before Judge Fox but Judge John M. Smith, formerly of the Jay circuit court of Portland, will be on the bench when the case is called for trial November 13. He will also hear the case of Edward "Pollard against the Citizens Telephone company of Cambridge City to recover damages for the death of his wife which was caused by a shock from a telephone.

Judge Smtih was in the city for a j

short time today. He left at noon, returning to Portland where he is now a practicing attorney. The case of Hipskind against the county commissioners to decide the ac

ceptance of the Liberty pike, is of interest to a large number of persons residing south of the city. After a portion of the roadway had been completed by Hipskind for five months, floods washed it away, the commissioners not having accepted it prior to that time. The responsibility for the repair of the road rests with Hipskind under existing conditions, it is said. He hopes to have the order of the commissioners against the acceptance, reversed by the court. The damage is approximately $2,000.

LOCAL TEACHERS PLAN TO ATTEND

IDENTIFY BODY OF . J. FRANKLIN BOURNE

EATON, O., Oct. 30. Although but four witnesses testified Wednesday In the Bourne murder case, state attorneys hold that convincing evidence waa brought out against Elwood Davis, charged with the murder of Benjamin Franklin Bourne. James Casey, well-known farmer, who resides in the vicinity of the scene of the alleged crime, testified that he knew Bourne well and was positive that the body unearthed was that of the man claimed to be the victim of Davis. Thus far the statements of Casey relative to identification are held by State attorneys to be the strongest. Ex-Deputy Auditor, R. J. Plummer waa one of the four who testified. Specimens of Bourne's handwriting held on papers in the auditor's office were compared with writing in a diary found at the Bourne farm, and Plummer waa positive in his identification ol both as being those of the old recluse,
