New \ork I'astor Draws Lesson
r'rom .Speculation Craze.
Nkm N ork, M*iy tr>—" rii-1 ethics of
Rambling and the p-riU of making
haste to bo rich," was the subject, of
the liev. Newell lhvight Hiilis' semen
Sunday night at Plymouth church,
Brooklyn. I>r. II illis said in part:
"The evils of drink are familiar to
you. rhere are other evils. ISut the
greatest peri I is t!i•> insane spirit of
gambling which s hiiis to huvc taken
hold of the people, irrefpective t>f mj-
cial standing or religious belief. The
insane desire to g< r rich quickly is at
the bottom of it all. There is no dif-
ference between the newsboy who flips
corns and'lie mai in Wall street who
buys stocks on margins on a chance
that they will rise or fall. I', th wish
to get something for 11;.; 1:ing; both
are gamblers.
"The incessant gambling on all
sports lias urougi.t demoralization to
the country. Horse racing is one of
the noblest of sports, but i' has been
degraded and h stialized by gambling.
Lvery Waturday afternoon you seu at
the raca tracks thousand* of working
girls and men who have families to
support, crazy with the intoxication
of gambling. As each race is run they
stand up, a yelling, cursing, purple-
facpd, brutalize"! gang.
"Irom the tiny lad selling news-
papers on the street to men dwelling
in a paluc*. t i 3 gambling spirit seenis
to have im.ided all. Where is this
thing going to end? it is time Ve
called a halt and consider what things
are really worth while."

$15,000 Worth of Silver Stolen
I'rom I'tah Refinery.
Salt Lakk, I r.ah.May 15.—A special
to the Desert News from Park City,
I tali, says that George Kedsull and
Albert .Niles were arrested there charg-
ed with stealing from the Marsac re-
tinery in that city nearly $16,000 worth
of silver bullion. Krdsull lias been
nightman at the refinery and Niles is
his son-in-law. The greater part of
the bullion was recovered by the sher-
iff at Niles' house.
A Will! A Way!
One wise man in the city said. "If I
mean to make a man of myself I will
do so regardless of the saloons, street
shows, gambling houses, etc." That
is true. It is not necessary to drive ont
saloons to keep a man from drinking;
it is not necessary to keep out hoochey
eoochey shows that a man might lie a
man : it is not necessary to stop the
gambling houses, that a man might
not gamble; it is not necessary to de-
stroy all fire-arms and stop their manu-
facture that a man keep from killing
his neighbor. These things will exist
and if a person wishes to attend or use
them he it ill uud if it is not his desiie
he will not.

Berlin, May 15. The Cologne Gaz-
ette, which often voices the views of
the German foreign office, in the Bourse
of a leading article today advocating a
turifT undertaking with Russia, in or-
der that the two powers might act
jointly against the United states says:
"As matters stand for Hurope today,
the struggle for existence demands
that the exceptional position of the
United States lie abolished. The Uni-
ted States are a most dangerous com-
petitor for (ieriuauy, especially in iron
manufactures anil hardware.
"Germany's tarilf policy must be ar-
ranged accordingly,
"An understanding with Kussia of-
fers ways and means to compel the
Uaited States to adapt themselves to
Europe'* tariff system, by which the
German agriculture would by no
meant suffer disadvantage."

gamy br.night against him, wus strick-

Gi tiikie, 0. T., May 13.—One of the
late- official acts of Governor Barnes
was the signing of a memorial day
proclamation which wes given out ju t
before inauguration of his successor,
W 111. Jenkins. Four years ago,'when
inaugurated, the first official net of the
new governor was the issuing of a
memorial day pr iclanaetion. This was
the first proclamation that had ever
been is-u"d in Oklahoma and during
the four years of the administration
the proclamations have been issued as
they are ill the states surrounding the
great territory. The proclamation of
Governor Barnes is as follows:
With the coming of May with its
wealth of bud and blossom, we n:e
"gain reminded of the near approach
of the day which custom lias made sac-
rod to the memory of the heroes of the
nation.
Therefore, in conformity with the j
general orders of the commander-in-
chief <>f the Grand Army of the He-
public, and in fullfillment of the spirit
of reverent patriotism which all Ameri-
ean citizens should feel, let the people
of Oklahoma observe Thursday, Way
30. as Memorial I >ay, in honor of deeds
of valor performed liy the brave defen-
ders of the nation who have offered
their lives that the stars and stripes
may wave forever as the symbol of
liberty.
I. C. M. Barnes, governor of the ter-
ritory ef Oklahoma, do proclaim said
day as a legal holiday and urge its gen-
eral olnervance in the holding of me-
morial services where will be recount-
