aires at the Millard hotel by the Ne

fcml. aoeiai of Intellectual it and point, the
erect was an unqualified auceesa. The
apeakera rose to the height of brilliancy
and wit was spontaneous.
Corers were laid for X0 and there were
only two or three empty chalra. It the
numerical strength of the gathering had
to be Judged from the throng about the
cloak room before and after the function
In the dining hall the arerage mind would
easily hare been decelred Into the belief
that I, ue Instead of XW bad responded to
the lnrltaUona. Four long tables, atretch
tng the entire length of the hall, were
vsed. There was another table across the
west end of the dining halL Thla table
was reserred for the speaker and the
press.- At Intervals on the table were
otted ferns and palma. These were the
only decorations excepting a giant palm
at one end of the halL There was no
music Music was not necessary, for the
harp of oratory waa touched early during
the function and the strings quirered the
entire e renins:. Such a large gathering of
brilliant intada would alas hare caused aa
ordinary display of decorations to look in
significant and for this reason It Is easy
to Imagine why artlstlo simplicity rather
than profuse display waa sought.

the audience, but the remark was only
one in a continual fire of bright speeches
made during the evening. In fact the
bombardment of wit was almost oonstant.
Rev. A- 1 Williams made the address of
welcome and Introduced the toastmaster.
Paul Charlton. Mr. Charlton's introduc
tory remarks Impressed the guests that
the toastmaster could not have been im
proved upon.
After a few remarks regarding the object
and work of church clubs, Mr. Williams ex
tended a welcome to the delegates and
complimented the laymen present by say
ing that their presence was sn inspiration.
He paid a compliment to Bishop Tuttle,
the presiding bishop of tbe church, and
aald: "He Is like the mighty oak of the
forest, toweling above aa an Influence for
good to us and an Inspiration to the
church.' He then Introduced Paul Charl
ton, the toastmaster, who In presenting the
first speaker. Rev. Daniel S. Tuttle of Cbl
cacq. aald:
"The resemblance of Chicago to Sodom
is complete, excepting that it has turned
out five blshopa of the church and there
la some good timber left. (Laughter.) In
Bishop Tuttle we have a large man. I do
not refer to his corpulency. (Laughter.) I
refer to hla work. The toastmaster is the
midwife of after dinner oratory. (Laughter.)
By bis assistance after dinner speakers are
more or leas successfully delivered"
Early meet m Bar Field.
Paying a compliment to the next speaker,
the toastmaster then Introduced Rev.
Daniel S. Tuttle. who spoke on "Typical
Western Experiences," dealing largely with
early mlsaionary life In the west. Some
of them were humorous, yet throughout
there was a vein of pathos which dealt
s'lth the hardships of those who struggled
to plant the Christian faith In the wild
wear, lis referred with some feeling to
the stage driver and told some ludicrous
experiences. One stage In which he was
riding tipped partly over In the mud while
going through Echo canyon near Salt
Lake. He happened to be one of the
passengers on the bottom and those on
top had to walk on hla face to get out. in
Montana, where he spoks at one time in
a hall over a saloon, the floor gave way
and sank two inches. He was one of the
first persons out of the building, and when
he reached terra flrma he urged those on
the Inside to be calm and not rush. Tbe
entire address waa mirth-provoking, al
though there was a pathetic coloring in the
background of his remarks.
Hon. J. M. Woolworth spoke on "Early
Missions In the District." He began with
the birth of missionary work in Philadel
phia In US and followed some of the more
notable workers to the western fields In
the early days of hardship, temptation and
difficulty that overtook them. "From these
martyra and heroes," said be. "la Imbibed
much of the spirit which animates many
of us today."
la Introducing Rev. J. D. Morrison, the
toastmaster roasted Duluth. whioh. be said,
has to blast holes out of the granite rocks
so that trees caa be planted there. The
speaker had for hla subject ''ftlrenuoslty
of the Episcopate," and he had a great many
admirable things to say of the strenuoelty
that la applied by clergy and laity in the
spread of the gospel. He took the trouble in
beginning hla remarks to get back at'the
toastmaster by saying that while be ad
mired tba kind things that had been aald
of him personally be deplored the Inac
curacies la the description of Duluth. his
home. "When members of tbe episcopacy

Frank O. Osborne ef 6t Paul, in re
sponding to the toast "Church Clubs," be
gan with the history of church organisa
tions, and explained how they had drawn
the clergy and laity together and been the
means of Instilling new vigor Into the
church.
Rev. S. C. Edsall treated the "Episcopacy
Against the Bar." He aaid there Is no an
tagonism between the two. "The only an
tagonism I ever found," be said, "came
through an old friend, who thought when
I entered the ministry that I waa spoil
ing a good lawyer to make a poor
preacher." (Laughter).
Rev. Cameron Mann had for his subject
"The Flora of North Dakota." "There is
no flora to North Dakota," he said, I'worth
speaking of. That flora story was con
cocted la JJebraska. We have, however.
Iota of prairie chicken, and I, will be glad
to take some of you for a bunt if you will

Rev. Irving P. Johnson responded with
a witty speech 'on "The Quiet Life." He
said there was nothing quiet in his life
while a resident of Nebraska, but that It

earth right for Christ s coming. The
great question is to create public sentiment
for Christ in the home, the community and
the nation. Aa a child somebody told you
of the beautiful story of the Incarnation,
and so we are called as missionaries to
tell it to ethers. Every person who has
reached tbe age of U years should have
that told tbem. The child must be di
rected by woman. She realizes the rela
tion of the church to the lifting up of
humanity. Win advocates to the cause
of humanity. Encourage the dissemination
of missionary literature, that ail may
know that something la going on in tne
world. Men and women should offer them
selves to recruit the ranks of Christ's
workers. The success of His work de
pends largely upon the fidelity and perse
verance of women and especially those
women who give themselves to think of the
things in real life.
Miss Julia Emery of New York city,
general secretary of the woman's auxiliary,
spoke on "Woman's Opportunity In Church
and Home." 8be aald:
Tbe Woman's auxiliary exists chifly as
a reminder for us to do God's duty. In
smsll parishes every member has to work
hard for the things which they plan and
pray for. I feel that e are all going
to take bold agaii. and that we will go
home from here with 'rash energy witn
a big assortment ol good stories of work
done and planned that we can tell at our
parish meetings snd enthuse tbem to new
work and hope. We should pray more for
divine guidance and help. Silver and gold
are nothing. Our hearts should be light
ened up snd Imbued with the holy spirit
of God. That la all we need. Tbe rest will
come.
The announcement waa made at the
close of the meeting that Miss Emery
wished to meet tbe officers of the diocese
in the chapel of the cathedral at o'clock
this morning.
A rising rote of sympathy waa taken for
Bishop Hare in his recent bereavement,
and also a rising rote of thanks for all
speakera who participated in the after
noon meeting.

Brownell hall was the point of interest
for the women of the Episcopal churches
of the Sixth Missionary district last night.
The visiting contingent, tbe local members
of the Woman's auxiliary and the Junior
auxiliary, filled the chapel at the hall. A
short praise service of prayer and song
waa conducted by Rev. Philip Davidson,
chaplain of the hall, after which Miss
Julia Emery, general secretary of the
Woman's auxiliary, was introduced. Miss
Emery Is a very attractive speaker, aa
well aa being an energetic and successful
worker In ber own field. Bhe spoke most
encouragingly of tbe prospects In the mis-,
slonary department of tbe church's work 1
and in a pleasing but no less emphatic I
fashion outlined to the women present the
uppuriuuiucs ioai ruiti tor me iuriner- t
ance of tbe missionary endeavor. Bhe
dwelt especially on what tbe Junior de
partment is trying to accoipllsh in dif
ferent places, giving much information and
many pertinent hints as to means and
methods. She pointed out in forcible lan
guage tbe great good to be achieved by
well directed effort on the part of tbe
women present. Coming from so many
and such widely scattered sections of the
country, she ftlt that the exchange of ideas
must result in a large measure of blessing
to the cause they all had so much at
heart.
After the meeting closed aa such the

WINCH GETS ANOTHER TURN
Will of the Late Eelh F. Demanded for
Purpose of Probate.
EXECUTORS ENTER THE MUDDLED CASE
Dorameat Last tees la Pessessloa ef
Elmer E. Thomas Is Sew Asked
For la Order that It
May Bo E sec a ted.
Abraham L. Reed and Frank W. Foster,
aa executora of the last will and testa
ment of Beth F. Winch, have filed a peti
tion in the county court asking that tbe
will be probated. They . set forth that,
while they knew of the existence of such
a will, it has never been filed for probate,
but that there are now on file copies of
of said will. It Is therefore prayed that
the heirs of 6eth F. Wincb be cited to
show cause, if any, why the will should
not be probated and approved. Tbe exe
cutors further ask that they be appointed
to execute the provisions of the will, but
that until the bearing on the probate a
special administrator be named to take
charge of the property and collect the
rents from the same.
The copies alluded to. In the petition
for the probating of the will were filed
with the court by Attorney Elmer E.
Thomas, who came Into possession of the
tlntl will while ae.istant county attor
ney, and by Alfred Norman, who waa
Winch's business business agent during
his lifetime and received tbe original will
from Mrs. Winch, now Mrs Bleen. After
ward he surrendered it to the grand Jury
of Douglas county, where Thomaa got It,
and the last seen of it was In the latter s
office, since which all trace of it has been
lost. On the stand Mr. Thomas admitted
be could not find it and did not knew
what had become of It, unless someone
had stolen it.
Another phase of tbe same case was
up -Wednesday morning In Judge Button's
court, where Mrs. Bteen waa answering a
citation to show cause why she should not
be puniehed for contempt of court in hav
ing refused to execute deeds to certain
lands in Chicago and in Minnesota which
Mr. Winch had deeded to her but which
had afterward been adjudged by the dis
trict court to be tbe property of the other
heirs and which she was ordered to turn
over. 6ome of this property bad. in the
meantime, been mortgaged by Mrs. Bteen,
and la answering tbe contempt writ she
pleaded that Innocent parties would suf
fer If she signed tbe deeds la question.
Bhe alao objected, through her attomeya,
that she could not aign tbe acknowledgment
aa a free act and deed, since she would do
it against her will, and In order to comply
with tbe order of the court, if at all.
Attoraeys Exchange Cosapllsaeata.
During the bearing of tbe case and while
presenting their arguments Messrs. Thomas
and Kaley paased out to each other some
raw and abrupt left-handed compliments,
going to the point of passing tbe lie almost
direct.
After listening to the evidence and bear
ing the arguments. Judge Button ordered
Mrs. Winch to comply with the order made
In the case by former Judgs Dickinson, and
which had ten sustained by tbe supreme
court, to sign ths deeds forthwith. Then
arose a wrangle oa tbe part ot Mrs. Bteen's
attorneys that the acknowledgment should
show that she was executing the same,
act of ber owa free will and accord, but
as a result of the order of tbe court. They
were finally permitted to iaierUae the ac
knowledgment to show this fact, although
lbs court stated he considered it uanaces-

Attorney Kaley then, under the direction
of the court, passed the deeds to Attorney
Nolan, and he in turn handed them to the
