REV. ANSCOMB PAYS TRIBUTE TO RILEY

A large and appreciative congregation was present at the South Eighth street Friends church yesterday at the Riley Memorial service. Music was furnished by Mrs. F. J. Bartel. Mrs. C. Marvel and Miss Halcey Harold, while Miss Fannie Harrcll and Miss Elizabeth Morris gave readings. The pastor said that Jamea Wblacomb Kiley had endeared himself to the hearts of the American peiple by his simplicity and naturalness. He had glorified the commonplace things cf life. He had not found his Inspiration in ancient myths and legends, nor In unrealities, but had spoken of the everyday affairs of the Hoosier farmer. Riley's charm lay in his unaffoctcdness.

mallitles. The speaker said Riley never pretended to bo a saint, yet he made it clear in his poems that he ac cepted the Christian faith. It was unt versally known how he loved children. Riley did ' not attach himself to any denomination, because he hated creeds and dogmas and could not bear the gloom and the awe of church services. He had declared that religion ought to be cheerful and Joyful, and that he did not believe God liked Christians with long faces and an attitude of abnegation. POEM ON RILEY Rev. J. J. Rae read the following poem written by John O'Keefe for the New York World at the services Sun day: Although "up to a brighter sky You turn a brighter brow, .The Little Girl you bade, "Don't cry!' Must disobey you now. Beside ihe Mttle Cripple's chair She's kneeling, tearful-eyed, Although she knows that you fore'er Are On the Sunny Side. Amid the land that's ever new, Amid new slnsers' ranks, There'll be the same deep Joy for you As on the Deer Creek Banks. For with your posies in her hands And on her lips your hymn, There Littlo Orphant Annie stands . To kiss her Uncle Jim! 0 you who sang The Days Gone By la your own perfect phrase, 1 hear your treble, far on high, Singing the day of days. The veil that hid God's mystery vast Lifts as a curtain does, And now Jim Riley, at the last . You Know Who Santa WuzJ No Cobble-unsH Git You, Jim! You've gone across the night To find amid tho seraphim The Raggedy Man In white! And in the paths of childrens feet, Lit by . the children's smile, You go unfaltering to meet The true Cross-Bearin Chile! The Funny Little Fellow cries In vain for you to stay. You've gone to seek beyond the skies The Land of Whereaway. And "Good-by Jim!" the Dwainie elf Sighs 'neath her Spirkland hat, She need not say, "Take keer o' yourself!" God's looking out for that! seventy foot steel flats, steel stock cars and elegant sleeping" car equipment. The big wagons were rolled off the flats Immediately after the arrival of the train and this morning the army of workingmen are busily engr.ged In erecting the tented city which will stand opposite Glen Miller Park all week and provide the pleasure field for the Druids Carnival. The festive occasion will be ushered In at six-thirty tonight when Eslick's All American Concert Band will assemble down town and after rendering a few selections, march to the show grounds where their arrival will be the signal for the opening of the various attractions and the occurrence of the big outdoor free shows.

Each shell is carefully enclosed in a steel band in which there is a large "eye." Then by means of a travelling crane the big projectile is brought up to the breech of the gun.

S, STEPHENS WRITES

AND CHARMING SCENES ON WESTERN TOUR; GREY BIRD CHOOSES OWN GAIT FROM HOME

Mrs. F. W. Stephens enroute to the West Coast has written this: Indiana and dear Richmond are fast disappearing from our view, but not from our thought. We were warned by the State Auto club while in Indianapolis lo avoid the route via St. Louis, as the mud on the "Ocean to Ocean Trail," was not to be compared to that of the National Old Road. So we adopted the "Pike's Peak or Bust" route, and have yet to inscribe on our banner the latter part of that saying. The thunders have bursted and the waters flooded, but they were kind enough to precede us, allaying the dust, and demanding advance repairs. Delightfully cool and refreshing, we lind our journey prepared for us, a week after the rains and one before the summer heat. We are really seeing "America first." Never before were we aware how beauteous scenery we were missing as we have skipped past on the "Sunset Limited'i or "Kansas Flyer," "near nature's heart" are we out here on these boundless western plains. The Blue book said Kansas City fortyfive miles away but that that distance we could outline the location from the marvelous hills. Romantic, picturesque, charming, we wished for a Bundy's hand to paint the scene. We were warmly, welcomed at the farm houses, where we often stopped for rest and refreshment. Wre were proffered milk and honey at one home, cream and eggs, fresh strawberries and elderberries were easily obtained, so we've fared sumptuously all the way. Our car, Grey Bird, seems to choose her own gait from home, sometimes she flies at a great pace when the roads are smooth many of them have dried rough, making progress slow. This and the mud are the only 'holdups" we've met thus far out in this 'wild and wooly west." At first we came very leisurely waiting for the rains to cease and the clouds to roll by. We are patting our government upon the back for its eighty-five million appropriation for good roads. A splendid highway from ocean to cean is really necessary to provide for seeing our loved, "America first," When wil lour nation, our states, learn to employ public funds for pub lic good? We appreciate the "Pikes Peak" plan of plainly marking, its route. Then there were the "Golden Belt" emblems and those of the "K. C. C. G." and the "Cannon-ball." These with accommodating Commercial and Auto clubs made it difficult to go wrong, as we were all the while assured by the guide posts and sign colors. We crossed the Mississippi at Hannabal, Mark Twain's old home, and came over a trail with his name we enjoyed Kansas City's splendid boulevards and were delightfully entertained by relatives there. Then followed a most happy visit at Lawrence with Elmina Wilson, whose name is so loved and honored in Richmond her home until recent years. Her superb daughter graciously received us into her elegant home a realm of comfort and took pleasure in showing us over the hlstric city. It's setting upon the hills is most magnificent, a throne of beauty. Dear Elmina's loving Interest in her many friends etill abides, her very presence breaths blessing upon them all. We are now at our brother's home in Topega, a city whose slogan is, "Topeka Can and Topeka Will." Prosperity everywhere evident in this state proclaims the value of her Prohibition policy. . . We are having a genuine rest here, with entertainment ahead arranged for at the home of Margaret McCarter, and others of our former friends. Our

BOLD THIEF (Continued From Page One.) attention, however, to furnish a description. Police, it is known, believe the same person or persons who robbed the Reynolds home looter the Hoffman house at Glen Miller park with a hundred yards of the constant, stream of traffic that passed through the park drives all day yesterday. Enters Through Window The house occupied by Hoffman is just south of the deer pen and is screened in the rear by heavy clumps of bushes and shrubs. It is through one of the back windows that the bold robber entered. After removing the screen, a section was broken from the lower part of the upper window sash. The lock was thus exposed and the window raised. The method of entrance was the same as that employed at the Perry J. Moss residence on South Thirteenth street a week ago Thursday night. This leads to the belief that one man who is familiar with the customs and the movements of people in the city is responsible for all three of the robberies. Pillage Rooms and Closets At the Hoffman house, the rooms and chests had been pillaged as at the Reynolds home. Only the jewelry and the same amount of cash was taken. Silverware which the robber found was not disturbed. The Hoffman family was away from home all day, having gone on a motor trip. The visitor had evidently made himself at home. Matches were strewn over the rooms and in the dining room there was evidence that the intruder had made a meal, leaving only crusts of bread and some scraps. These are among the boldest robberies ever perpetrated in Richmond, both being committed in broad daylight within sight and hearing of many persons. The robber left no clues.

CROOKEDNESS CAN'T SUCCEED REV. STOVALL TELLS MEMBERS

The third and last In a series of three twenty-minute sermons on "Under the Treea," was deliverel by Rev. W. O. Stovall at the First Baptist church Sunday evening. The text was "When thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee." John I: 48. The pastor said in part: "We have too much admiration for the man of craft and cunning. It is the man who can bring things to pass whom we point out as the object for emulation. He must not be thoroughly unscrupulous, of course. But, if a little cunning is needed once in awhile, he must not be such a ninny as to let his opportunity pass on that account. "Now, ladies and gentlemen, I want to say something for the- guileless man, the man who does not resort to trickery of any kind to accomplish his purpose, and who is simple enough to believe that it is Just as wrong for him to do wrong as for anybody else. This is a man who is not afraid of his yesterdays and has no dread for bis tomorrows. He is glad to come face to face with the One who knows all about the doings of his hands and the thoughts of his soul. Such was Nathanael, the man who was under the fig tree, an Israelite Indeed, in whom was no guile. "In Palestine the wide-spreading fig tree by the highway offered a friendly PHYSICIAN DRINKS REID SPRING WATER The qualities of Reid's Springs, north of the city, are attracting attention outside the limits of Richmond. A physician of Cincinnati, suffering from kidney trouble, and retired merchant of Illinois, are drinking many pints of the water every day. They spend the day at the spring and stay at a local hotel at night. AUTOIST COURTS DEATH New Castle motorists narrowly escaped serious injury in an automobile accident six miles east of here recently. Basil Beeson, driving the machine failed to see a curve in the road and drove through a hedge into an open field. Other occupants of the car were Miss Celesta Mills, North Verl non ,Miss Margaret and Carl Tuhey, Spiceland. No one was injured. The car was put out of commission temporarily. PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY.
