B e e e R S Y ) ARGE THAONGa - GREET VIaITOR Christian Endeavorers Occupy Pulpits in Cincinnati. Review Work Accomplished by League During Past Twenty Years. Lot CINCINNATI, July 7.—The weather was perfect and the Christian Endeavorers spent a busy day. The day opened with three quiet hour meetings of one hour each, held in three of the largest of the city’s churches, and were conducted by the Rev. Floyd W. Tompkins of Philadel- phia and the Rev. Wolfkin of Brooklyn. The meeting at the Central Christian Church was to have been conducted by the Rev. J. W. Chapman of New York, who is now seriously ill at his country home at Winona Lake, Ind. A large con- course of people had assembled therein in expectation of hearing him, but the meeting was declared off. The various pulpits about the city were occupied by the visiting ministers, whose topics were “Twenty Years of Christian Endeavors.” The attendance at these meetings was large, and especially so at St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church, where the Rev. Charles M. Sheldon of Topeka, Kans., spoke. The afternoon was devoted to three sim- ultaneous evangelical meetings-in the Mu- sic Hall auditorium. These meetings were classified for men, women and children. The attendance at all was large and much evangelistic work was accomplished, espe- clally at the men's meeting in the Audito- rium Endeavor. This meeting was to have been conducted by the Rev. Chapman of New York, and in his absence a_repre- sentative of the laity, William Phillips Hall of New York City, conducted it. President Clarke occupied the chair a par- tion of the meeting. The meeting of the women in the audi- torflum was conducted by General Secre- tary John Willis Baer of Boston. The bur- den of the remarks were for temperance. The attendance at this meeting was the largest of the three evangelist sessions. Meeting for Children. At the Auditorium Ohio _the children held sway, led by the new field secretary, | Clarence E. Beerman of Lancaster, Pa. Treasurer Willlam Shaw of Boston and Miss Kate H. Hause of St. Louls ad- dressed the children, admonishing them in the ways of righteousness and fllus- | trating the dangers of cigarettes and -bad reading. Mrs. Frances E. Clark of Boston, wife of President Clark, spoke of the Junior Christian Endeavor. The German Christian Endeavor Society held its first meeting in the Philippus Church, Dr. Clark being the main speaker. Treasurer Shaw of Boston presided at | the session at the Central Presbyterian Church. General O. O. Howard of Bur- lington, Vt., spoke in part as follows: Since the incoming of what is called higher criticism, and during the last two decades of theoretic' evolution taught to our young men in_colleges and extended ~occasionally with controversy to our theological seminaries, it has become the fashion to lay stress upon the earthly life, the naturalistic life of men, women and children here and now. Even in our best sermons we miss the Old Testament scriptures, Tlustrations abound which show more reading of other books and less study of the Bible. It seems to have become the custom with our younger clergymen especlally to treat children and youths as they do plants. Their environ- ment is studied, the development is begun and continued, and co-relations from babyhood to the kindergarten, from the kindergarten to the grammar school, in; from the glammar school to the high school and from the high school to the col- lege, academic, professional, trade or commer- clal stage. Truth Wanted and Welcomed, 1 do not object to the criticism of the scrip- ture text and most searching investigation as to what holy men of old really wrote when | they were moved by God's holy spirit, do distrust all flerce triumph which some men manifest when they show or think they have shown that Washington was not a good man; that Shakespeare did not write the books re- puted to him and that Moses was not the com- poser of the Pentatcuch. ,object to the par- tisan spirit which undeptakes to wrench from us that which we loved and trusted and be- lieved in and worked with from our_spiritual childhood to our spiritual manhood. Truth we want. Truth we welcome. whole truth and send forth men and women into the fleld as missionaries and endeavorers to exalt the Savior and who are able to teach the simple truths which men and women need and proclaim the good tidings of great joy continually and without reservation. As we proclaim the truth in our enlarged possessions. in all our sparsely settled country, amid the new and ignorant and superstitious populations, far away In Hawali, from shore to shore of Cuba and among cight millions of the Philippines, obeving our Master’s last command to preach ) everywhere what he taught his disciples, let us see to it that We give no uncertain soun: that we deliver no uncertain tidings. no lame and weak proclamations. Heeding this method, the old and well-tried methods, the successful method, we shall have abundant fruitage.

The proclamation cov- ers the cessions made by the Wichita and affiliated bands of Indians, in accordance with the act of March 2, 189, and those made by the Comanche, Kiowa and Apache tripes in pursuance of the act of June 3, 1900. The proclamation provides for the open- ing of the lands in those reservations which are not reserved at 9 o’clock a. m., on the 6th of August next, the lands to be- open to settlement under the home- stead and townsite laws of the United States. Beginning on the 10th inst. and ending on the 26th, those who wish to make entry of lands under the homestead law shall be registered. The registration will take place at the land offices at Reno and Lawton. The registration at each office will be for both land districts. The proclamation provides that: Will Draw for Lands. No one will be permitted to make settlement upon any of the lands in advance of the open- ing provided for, and during the first sixty days following said opening no one but registered applicants will be permitted to make homestead settlement upon any of said lands, and then | only in pursuance of a homestead entry, duly allowed by the local land officers, or of a soi- dier's declaratory statement, duly accepted by such officers. The order in which, during the first sixty days following the opening, tne registered ap- plicants will be permitted to make homestead entry of the lands opened hereunder, will be determined by drawings for both the' El Reno and Lawton districts publicly held at the United States Land Office at El Reno, Okla- homa, commencing at 9 o’clock a. m., Monday, July 29, 1901, and continuing for such period as may be necessary to complete the sale. The drawings will be held under the supervision and immediate observance of a committee of three persons whose integrity is such as to make their control of the drawing a guaranty of its falrness. The members of thls commit- tee will be appointed by the Secretary of the Interior, who will prescribe suitable compensa- tion for their services. Preparatory to these drawings the registration officers will, at the time of registering each applicant who shows himself duly qualified, make out a card, which must be signed by the applicant, stating the land_district in which he desires to home- | stead entry and giving such a description of | the applicant as will enable the local land offi- cers to thereafter identify him. This card will be at once sealed in a separate envelope, which will bear no other distinguishing label or mark than such as may be necessary to show that it is to go into the drawing for the { land district in which the applicant desires to ADOPTS STRINGENT RULES TO PREVENT LAND FRAUDS Government Officials Will Conduct a Drawing to Insure Fairness to All Intending Oklahoma. make entry. These envelopes will be separated according to land districts and will be care- fully preserved and remain sealed until opened in _the course of the drawing, as herein pro- vided. When the registration is completed all of these sealed envelopes will be brought to- gether at the place of drawing and turned over to the committee in charge of the drawing, who in such manner as in their judgment wiil be attended with entire fairness and equality of opportunity shall proceed to draw out and open the separate envelopes and to give to each enclosed card a number In the order in which the envelope containing the same is drawn. Manner of Conducting Drawing. ‘While the drawings for the two dis- tricts will be separately conducted they will occur as nearly at the same time as s practicable. Subsequent proceedings are provided for as follows: Application for homestead entry of said lands during the first sixty days following the open- ing can be made only by registered applicants and in the order established by the drawing. At each land office, commencing Tuesday, Au- gust 6, 1901, at 9 o'clock inclusive, for that district. must be presented the applications of those drawing numbers 1 to 125, inclusive, and will_be considered in thelr numerical order during the first day, and the applications of those drawing numbers 125 to 230, inclusive, must be presented and will be considered in their numerical order during the second day, and so on at that rate until all of sald lands subject to entry under the homestead law and desired thereunder have been entered. Provision *is made for. locating town sites. Town-site applicants are required to file before the opening of the lands in a written appli- cation to the effect, describing by legal subdi- vislons the lands intended to be affected and stating fully and under oath,the necessity or propriety of founding or establishing a town at that place. Lands withheld from homestead entry and settlement will at the time of sald opening, and not before, become open ‘o the settlement, entry and disposition un- der the general townsite laws of the United States. None of said ceded lands will be subject to settlement, entry or disposition under the general townslte laws until after the expiration of sixty days from the time of said opening. Transport McPherson at New York.

The wreckers have worked nearly five months on the transport. 3 BATHING SUITS THEIR ONLY GARS Sun-Bath Devotees Scan- dalize a Seaside Resort. Zealots in Scanty Attire Traverse the Streets of Ronkonkoma. Special Dispatch to The Call. RONKONKOMA, L. I, July “7.—Ever since the present season opened the mod- est natives and summer visitors at this secluded resort have had their sensibili- tles shocked daily by the alleged “goings on” of the inmates of a health and physi- cal culture retreat in this vicinity. The agitation has spread as far as Lake Grove, and several petitions have been presented to the proprietor of the health home, imploring the management to see that patients and patrons wear proper clothing when going about the streets of this and near-by villages. From what can be learned, it appears that sun baths are one of the features of the health home treatment, and with a view to getting out in the atmosphere as much as possible it is asserted the in- mates chase about the village and the country side attired in the scantiest kind of bathing suits. It is against this stalk- ing about the village streets and hali- ways In light and airy costumes that ths opposition of those outside the health home is directed. They want the practice stopped. It is asserted that the zealots attend- ing this health cure wear their bathing suits to the railroad station and to the postoffice and certain of the horrified community say they expect next to see some of the bathing-suit colony attend- ing church in their health clothing. Ho- tel-keepers and cottagers complain that their patrons are being driven away by the scandal attending the attire worn by health retreat devotees. Governor General Wood Improving.

WASHINGTON, July 7.—A report re- ceived at the Navy Department from Commander Seston Schroeder, naval com- mandant of the island of Guam, indicates the Filipino prisoners of war who were deported to the island are cared for with unusual consideration. They are quar- tered about three miles from Agana, where Commander Schroeder’s headquar- ters are located, in substantial, commo- dious and comfortable quarters.

CONTEST FOR A FORTUNE WILL BE BITTERLY FOUGHT Executors of Will of Millionaire Rog- ers Take Case Into the Pre- rogative Court. NEW YORK, July 7.—The Journal and Advertiser will to-morrow say: The ex- ecutors of Jacob S. Rogers’ will deciled yesterday to have the battle between the heirs and the Metropolitan Museum of Arts of New York for the locomotive builder's fortune fought out in the pre- rogative court at Trenton, N. J. ““This step was taken,” said William Pennington, one of the’executors, ‘“be- cause of the expected litigation over the will. The estate will probably be tied up for years, and it will be necessary from' time to_time to secure orders of court for the handling and proper invest- ment of the funds. The securing of these orders could be tied up in the low- er courts and so we deem it best to bring the case before the Chancellor at once.” Peace Restored in Argentine. LONDON, July 7.—The Argentine Min- ister to Great Britain, Florencio Domin- guez, is understood to have received a ca- blegram from Buenos Ayres, dated July 6, asserting that there has been a complete cessation of the disturbances growing out of the protests against the bill—which the !
