Curtis, father of Councilman Ben Curtis. The pole struck the back of the buggy with great force, and up set it. Mr. Curtis fell under the wreck, the horse hitched to the buggy, which was demolished, was down and the delivery wagon had overturned and the runaway horses were checked long enough to be stopped and secured. Attention was given to Mr.

Curtis at once. He was taken out from under the debris safety will come through the salvation of young men. He will salute with respectful and honorable recognition the flag of the Young Men's Christian association. The recognition implies general financial support. Da you believe the association is doing much to change youns men and protect society from youthful criminals? If yes, then the appeal is not to your benevo lence but your selfishness.

You put an insurance on your business and your home. The finest buildings in our cities are our insurance buildings, and our Young Men's Christian associations, the best insurance company ever planted in a community goes begging for a house in which to do its business It is creditable neither to religion, nor patriotism, nor our business prudence. Again the Young Men's Christian association has a claim on the best young men of our churches.

The board of trade will appropriate the money and the exhibit will be made irrespective of the action of other sections of the state although the Wichita people prefer to co-operate with the state as a whole. Senator Young and Mr. Cramp said that the northern associations that they are connected with have rented 640 feet and they propose to make an elaborate display of their specialties.

Forty-five cities and towns are comprised in their associations and their exhibits will not be in the interest of any particular place but all of northern Kansas included in their territory. Each city and town though will be permitted to advertise in proportion to the money they contribute. They can get $2,500 without any trouble, and will send men to Cincinnati to take charge of their display and look after the interests of northern Kansas. Space is being rapidly taken up and the necessity of immediate and decisive action was recognized and admitted by one and all, but there being no treasury to back them the commissioners admitted that their task to devise a way to have Kansas properly represented was not an easy one. Should this year's crop prove to be a rich one, the possibility of the legislature voting $70,000 to reimburse an outlay of that sum would not be only a probability but a sure enough certainty.

But they were not disposed to trust to a big crop. It was suggested by Senator Clen-ents that the state be divided into as many districts as there are commissioners, and that each commissioner do all in his power to get the citizens of his district to understand the advantage of making a liberal exhibit, and to find out what space will ba required. He recommended that the secretary correspond with the Centenial management to obtain all information regarding the exposition, so that the same may be published for the benefit of the public in Kansas.

THE hi "QV I JCi ATTOBNEYS AND COUNSELLORS SHAWN JEE IN SESSION. OF Tfcy Meet to Organize, or to Reorganize a Bu Association and Indulge in Much Desultory Talk About It. Xaanen table Lack of Knowledge Shown Parliament ry Law, However Well Posted On the Canons of All Other Branches. Lawyers know all about the common law mfEngland, the law of the Romans, canon law, Mosaic law, the Napoleonic code, and fbe legislative enactments and codes of the several states, but they are proverbial for displaying an absolute ignorance of parliamentary usage when they assemble together as body of disciples of Blackstone. It is wnt tuugnsA tiBv urn not nrlvispfl RFt to the xules gOTerning legislative bodies, because the most, prominent presiding officers have Leext lawyers, bat it is nevertheless true that lawyers have a meeting of their own, or precedents do not count for much.

The members of the Shawnee county bar -xnet at the court house last night, and they this fact. The meeting was called to order by Judge hf whh. He said all he knew about it IQ that the call for the meeting included practicing attorneys, both members of the bar association and other3. He said he called the meeting to order simply becaus Jhe signed the call. He reccommended the election of temporary president and eecre tary.

Judge Day concurred in Judge Webb' noggeetion and favored a liberal reorgani rjsation of the bar association to include all practicing attorneys in the county, yet, he thought it proper to continue Judge Webb jan the chair temporarily at least; therefore xmoved tnat Judge Webb act as temporary chairman, which motion was carried unani measly. James Troutman was unanimously elected temporary secretary. Mr. Spencer thought the first thing to be fietermined was whether the members in Jact want an organization. He said he found that the meetings, although they were ew of the old association were profitable.

ZHe hoped if an organization was perfected "that the members will attend the meetings and discharge the duties imposed upon them. If the members felt as he did, he "was willing to go ahead. Mr Taylor moved that the organization be proceeded with and that every practicing attorney in the county be eligible to membership. Mr. Jetmore ield that the way to do would be to amend the constitution and by-laws of the old asso ciation.

Mr. Clemens said only a standing committee on reorganization' would answer and be effective. Mr. Slinedker did not ap prove of the disbandment of the old associa tion as he understood it had a balance of $90 an its treasury. He wanted it to come in.

Mr. Taylor's motion carried. 31. B. Welch did not comprehend how the old constitution can be changed after the -passage of Mr.

Taylor's motion. He in quired the organization was to be for clree parade occasions, or if regular busi ness meetings would be held at stated times. If the organization is not to meet regularly constitution is unnecessary. Shawnee county lawyers be denominated, a good, thing among them is lacking. He did not inow what to term it.

Mr. Jetmore advocated a permanent or Conization, ana ne wouia ukc to see it incorporated. It should be compact. There should be a constitution and by-laws. With such an organization legislation on subjects 'which should be passed would be more easily secured.

Judge Day referred to the fact that there are similar associations in all states. There is the American association, Ymt a convention will be held in Washington aaxi month to organize the National Bar association to comprise state and local bar associations. He thought that the old association might "be bo reorganized as to admit all lawyers of the county. Judge Day moved to reconsider Mr. Taylor's motion to appoint a committee on reorganization.

It was seconded. After some discussion the motion 1 Judge Martin said he could conceive bow a bar association might be valuable to he Profession, fale saiil a bar association is a good thing. if properly conducted. He suggested that if a bar association could be formed and regular meetings held for business, discussion and study, it would be of lteaefit. He would like to see all motions ,1 tlia PAnnAatAd VI to indicate their willingness or not to join such an association.

Mr. Jetmore still advocated to amend the old constitution H. C. Root seconded Judge a committee and by-laws. Martin's mo- tkra, which, by the way, was only a suggestion.

Mr. Clemens not being prepared to -remain all night, moved the previous question. The motion to reconsider Mr. Taylor's motion was carried, and Mr. Taylor withdrew his motion.

Judge Martin moved that each member willing to join the association should rise to bis feet. Mr. Case did not seethe necessity of a new association. The old, he said, was only in a dormant state. He objected to the pledge by standing on one's feet because no man could tell what he might be pledging himself to.

He wanted to see all the ideas of the different gentlemen consolidated, and i t.Jm orfin trk ttiaIta hia mo- xie aesuw tion clearer. Judge Martin replied that all he sought was to settle whether the members want an organization. The details may be arranged later. Judge Martin's motion was put and all the member rose to their feet, the number being forty-six. Mr.

Jetmore moved the appointment of a committee of five on constitution and bylaws. The motion was carried and the chair appointed Messrs. Jetmore, Taylor, Sloneeker, Judge Martin and MJ T. Campbell. Judge Martin asked to have Mr.

Spencer substituted for him. His request was granted. The meeting adjourned to next Saturday night at 8 o'clock. A BAD RUNAWAY. air.

For Eight Long Years the Association Has Bravely and Successfully Plied Their Vocation of Saving-fcouls in Tupeka. An Eloquent and Instructive Address by Ker. Dr. Thompson, of Kansas City, Setting- Forth the Duty of Young Men. The eighth anniversary exercise of the Young Men's Christian association was held in the Presbyterian and Methodist churches Sunday evening.

More than 1,800 people were present at these meetings a. rs. (jremmell, president of the associa tion, presided at the Presbyterian church. Rev. L.

Blakely and Rev. T. R. Peters took part in the opening exercise. President Gemmell spoke of the great need of an association building for the rap idly growing work of the association, and urged that immediate steps be taken to secure a well located building site.

Mr. Gem mell then presented Rev. C. S. Thompson, D.

of Kansas City, who delivered the anniversary address. rK- Thompson's addbess. The first chapter of John's gosple presents short and sufficient creed far the Young Men's Christian association. The associa tion is some tims criticised by church men because it formulates no elaborate system doctrine. who, believe in creeds and doctrines whould not be here to speak to you to-night if I.

did not believe that you hold a very definite outline of truth. The tendency of our times is to make our creeds shorter and deeper. But while our creeds do not roam over so much territory, yet claim they reach down to bedrock. I have no use for a creedless religion. They are the bone framework that supports life.

A man to be a man needs a good bony system. But then he must have more than bone. I have no use for a religious skeleton. The mere rattle of theological bones. I want them sheathed, complacid and energized by a good muscular vascular and nervous system.

A good deal of theology of the past has been bony. We will not in the future think less of doctrines than in the past but we will vitoliztd them. It will be the basis of our living but over and around it will follow the living blood and tingle of the sensative nerves of doctrine applied and active Christian life. The advance to-day is that we know how apply science. This is true of theology.

The Young Men's Christian association ac cepts the doctrines of Christendom and trying to apply them. An iiea to-day Is just good rsr ll will do. The value of creed is its potency. Dependence on an idea is the world's old curse as if a lump of coal stored in the cellar.warmed your house, cooked your dinner. Men have tried to convert the world by systems.

This is "petrified religion," as Coldridge says. Science to-day makes a difference between force and energy. The lump of coal represents force. But when it is shoveled into the engine, and the fire kindled, and it commences to drive the piston rod back and forth, sending the express train over the track, then it is enerev. Now great system can be made living only by the passion oi a great spirit, desus Christ or ganized our system, but he took fundamen ideas of love to God and man, poured great soul into them, and then poured His throbbing spirit into the darkness of the world, and lo! it shines like the morn.

Into the death of the world, and lo! it flows with immortal hope. Jesus formulated no great creed, but He put his fiery wjuca on ionn. jreter, Andrew and JNathameL He said my gospel shall be man for man. Are there then no doctrines? the gospel only sympathy and tears? Sympathy is a sigh of helplessness. Tears are the crystals of impotent love Human influence is only a falling tent to smother unless there be under it the firm snnnort great upholding truths.

We will not think more ioltily than the great master, but per haps we will learn how to apply the gospel more wisely. lhe nrst chapter of Job. ODens with trrpnt. iueas. it.

In a rapid and jostling age that would draw you hither and thither, have courage to say firmly to your tempters "This one thing I do." Having thus outlined the work of the Young Men's Christian association, I turn to the people of the churches represented here and the people of the community to make a brief pea for the association. I have looked over their report. I saw they have done a good work.

They have some claim upon your re co gnization, the time has passed when any man who loves his town has a right to patronize the Young Men's Christian association. Have we not heard again and again of the perils that threaten our cities. If We are to be 'undermined it is in the cities that the work -will be done. Intemperance, Sabbath breaking, social immorality, lawlessness and anti-American idea. These are our perils, and they foster chiefly on young men.

Perhaps you care nothing for the word Christian." Then respect those other words, "association of and for young men." That way lies our help. In vain you build your business if dishonesty and immorality are sapping the foundations, and in vain the threatening flood so long as a cordon of strong young hands and hearts stand guard over public morals and civic thrift.

In the advance the Young Men's Christian association should have a conspicuous place. We have long been getting ready, having been shaping our doctrines and getting our machinery in oraer. 'lhe time has come for the general order.

"Thfi whole world for Christ" and an advance along the whole line. There is a time to sound the wheels, there is also a time to pull out the throttle. Winter has its uses, times of critical and testing storms, isut spring is the organizing time, is better a 5OD helping' hands at work to build up and lead in the glory of summer. We have naa the winter of sharp and biting criticism. Uur doctrines have been examined and our methods tested.

They have stood now tor the advance and Heaven will help and bless our endeavors. For all Heaven works in the interest of that which is organized to great ends. The outcast dust of the streets, lonely and trampled, shall take on a glory at last, where human love and divine grace nave uone their utmost, a glory like that of the jasper walls and pearly gates. The address was attentively listened to, and the comments were enthusiastically favorable after the congregation was dismissed. THE BUILDING INIU9TRV.

Mice to Advertise the State Where it Will Pay. he commissioners to represent Kansas a i Ohio centennial, consisting of George Case, Jewell county; Governor John A.

G. W. Clements, Sedgwick county; J. K. Hudson, Shawnee county, and Asa Thompson, EJk county, proxy for W.

S. Lambert, had their first meeting last night. It was held at the Copeland. It was for organization and was informal. Hon.

George H. Case was eiected president and J. K. Hudson secretary. There were present also Hon.

I. D. Young, representing the Northern I mmigation association of Kansas, and W. C. Crump, secre tary of the Northern Kansas Real Estate as-Bociation, with headquarters at Manhattan.

W. S. Stumbaugh, of Dickinson county, the other member, was absent. A general interchange of ideas relating to the manner which the commissioners should adopt to arrange for exhibits of Kansas products at the Ohio centennial was indulged in and the time when the exposition will open and the length of time it will run were made known by advices from the management of the centennial. The Ohio centennial will open on the fourth day of July and will continue 100 days, closing October 27.

All the states and territories have been invited to make displays. The Ohio management has an almost exhaustless treasury to draw on. The first obstacle that the commissioners encountered was the fact that no funds have been appropriated by the state legislature or subscribed by any persons or association and it is uncertain that the commissioners will be reimbursed if they pay the bills of the Kansas exhibit. They, therefore, do not want to assume any such responsibility or liability. It was the general opinion that boards of trade' and county societies should contribute the amount necessary to make a creditable showing, and that competent individuals should be employed to go to Cincinnati, where the centennial will be held to look after Kansas' interests.

The governor said that the agricultural department of the state can send grain, soil and other non-perishable 1 stuff on permanent exhibition in that department on behalf of the state proper. Major Hudson was in favor of asking local societies to foot the bill, and dividing the 'state into districts with that object in view. He did not think the expense would be less than $10,000 Governor Martin estimated the cost at $5,000, but all agreed that there was no way to approximate the probable cost, yet, as it depends on the extent of the Kansas exhibit and the cost of transportation. Space in the Centennial building will cost ten cents per square foot, Senator Clements said. He also stated that Wichita, acting on its own already serured 400 feet and expected to make a speciality of its manufacturers.
