DESCRIPTION OF THE ENGLISH SYSTEM Important IHlTi-rriu-f-M ItHwrii II nil the . \tiK-rli-iiti I'lmi Much I.nrKcr I' < - reiiliiK - of At I cinl ii nre Some Oiniilin The fifth conference of the Omaha Sunda School association was held last night a the First Congregational schurch. Thcr was a coed attendance. The tncetlnc wn opened by Silas Cobb , vvho explained tha President Wallace was confined to his bei and unable to ho mcscnt , Hev. A. Holdcn Byles , D. D , of RnglanJ was the first speaker , his topic being "Tli Sunday School from an Hngllah Point o View. " He said It was about fifty years s nee h first became a Sunday school scholar It England and he had been actively Identlfiei with the work c\cr tlnco. His work In tha line had been In England , with the cxccptlot of two years , which he- spent In Berlin uhll In attendance at the university there , bu even there his work In the Sunday sclioo was continued , he having assisted In start Ing a Sunday tchool there. He said he uscc to have a strong Interest In the American Sunday school and Intended coming to thl country several years ago , but was unabl to arrange his affairs BO as to do so untl about a year ago , when he came with th Intcnt'on ' of remaining six months , but hai bscn detained longer than he originally In tcndtd. .During his stay here the speaker said ho had given a great deal cf attent'on to the Sunday school j > stem and he was ( struck most forcibly with the broad differences be tween this country and his rat've lind. "In England , " ho said , " \vo have fewe carpets and more clats rooms. In my owi school we had twenty-eight class rooms , li addition to two largs lecture rooms , am Just before I came away It was found neces sary to build more class rooms. The systcn of having clasees In separate rooms has been found to be the best. By having all the class.es In ono large room the attention o ono class Is attracted to what Is going 01 In another class , and It Is Impossible to ac compllsh good results In this way. I fini In this country that large classse are strongly objected to , but with us largo classes are not found objectionable. When wo find a good teacher , a godly man who has an In terest In his work , wo think It advisable to give him a large class. GIVE IT MORE TIME. "Another difference I find Is this : W give more tlmo to Sunday schools than yo do here. AVe have a morning and an after noon session. We do not push our Sunda ; school off Into a corner , but give a great dea of attention to that work. In my owi church we have a school of 400 young mei and women , besides a class of 100 working men. Besides that , wo have a meeting litho the afternoon especially for vvorklngmen , a which 1,200 men attend every Sunday. Thl meeting Is managed by the young men o the blblo class. Our Sunday schools nice In the mornings from 9:30 : to 10:45 : , and I the afternoons from 2 to .1.30 o'clock. Th doors are closed when the time for the meet Ing arrive ? and all who are not prompt ar shut out. We gve prizes to all who ar punctual In attendanceat every meeting c the year , and Just before I came away distributed 280 such prl/cs to pupils wh I'ad not missed a meeting during the jear. "Another very radical difference which have noticed Is that with us at least four fifths of the hcholars are children vvhos parents never como to church. It Is oxcep tlonal to- the children of Christian parent to come to Sunday ecltcol. I have alway been in favor of the idea of Children of Chris tlan parents being taught at hcme. "I have been told by a minister In Omali that only about 13 per cent of the children c sliool age attend Sunday school In Englaw at least 95 per cent of our children of s-c'noc age attend Sunday school. They may not b regular In their attendance , but they are o : the books cf ODino Sunday school. "I admit that jour system of day school here Is superior to o'irs , but wo have ncarl ; aa fine graded schco'a as > oj have , and w have a compuliory law which requires tha all children of school ago shall atterid da ; school , but , notwlthy nmllng tiat law and It reasonable enforcement , we hive found tha we have 12,000 moro children In our Sunda : schools than we have In our1 day schools. "Wo also differ from jou In that we hav the bible taught In our day schools by Chris tlan teache s. I had always been In favor o recular education In the schools and was ai art'ent smpporter of the American system , bu slnco I came here I have changed my mind If there Is nri Christian education In tin day schools the work of the Sunday tcboo should be ex'enJed. "Another point of difference IB that wi have quarterly meetings. ' for the tcache-e ii our Sunday schools. These meetings las from C until 10 p. m. , and the pastora , dea cone and teachers meet together and havi mutual conference and prayer with referenci to Sunday school work. Wo also have weekl ; meetings for the teachers , for the dlscussloi of Sunday school topics , etc. CLOSELY ALLIED TO THC CHUIICH. "In England wo always have the closes connection between the church and the Sun day school. The Sunday school IB the rocl which forms the foundation of the church Veil might au well attempt to build a housi without a foundation as to build a cliurcl without a Sunday school. You may get together gother a congregation by means of a populai preacher , or , what Feeins a not unusua method In w intern cltlc : > , by means of a pop ular uiiigcr , only to find the whole thlnf blown to the wind ? . But I have known : church to be held together without a pautoi solely by reason of the Sunday tchool. "I favor the Idea of the teachers nominal- ng the superintendent , but he should be ippolntcd by the church , New teacher ! : ihould also be named at a church meeting , > o that all may know who the teachers are. I'eacheiH bhould bo ordained and sent forth Uth pra > era and the sympathy cf the church , They should feel that they are called by 3od and ordained to God's work. Unless the eaclier feels that she U teaching as a means if bringing souls to Christ , the teaching Is i farce. " At the close of the address several < | uen- Ions were asked Dr. Hyles by different > nes in the audience , bringing out more ilearly some of the points touched upon. Superintendent Glllan cf the Walnut Hill > ! ethodbt ! churcircalled attent'on to the fact hat a recent count had Blmun that there ire about 30,000 children ot school age In ho city , and about 0,000 In attendance at the arlous Sunday Schools , making about 20 > er cent Instead of 13 per cent , mentioned < y Mr. By lea. The meeting was then divided Into ( our ections and each assembled In different oonu to discuss topics of particular Interest D each section. The section of superintend- nts was under the leadership of T. C , Wai- ice of Hillside Congregational church ; the tlble class section was under Ir , Ilylea ; the iitermcdlato teachers under Mies Irene Sim- icns of Beth-Eden Baptist , and the primary eachera under Mrs , 1' .

The prisoner lnsdste.1 that his name wan Smith and not Clajcomb , despite the fact that he , baa been positively Identified as Claycomb. Clajcomb had positively nothing to ay regarding the crime ectccpt to deny It. On his trip to tills city steadfastly persisted that ho had nothing to do with the grave robbery. He was charged with having sent the trunks to DCS Molnes and with receiving them , but ho denied each and every allega tion. tion."I tell jou that they have got the wrong man , " ho mid. "What were you doing In Ics Molnes , " was asked , "Well , that's my buslners , " he responded , In reply to the sime question , which Dfftectlve Cox propounded to him on tbo train , ho stated that he had gone to DCS Molncsi to find work. Ho said that he was utuble to find emplovmcnt In Omaha and con ciiuertly had gone to other fields. "Did you send the trunks from Council Bluffs ? " was asked. "No. I did not , " rtspsndcd Claycomb , "I don't know nnj thing about the trunks ? " Ho In the same mannsr denied knowledge of any of the facts that hive been discovered In connection with the desecration of the graves. The denials were TO poiltlvo that Detective Cox finally gave up any further attempt to elicit Information from him. He assumed tha name attitude to other ques tioners. "I have nothing to say , " ho remarked , and this wa all tint could b obtained from him , except that he would make a denial tthen ho was arraigned In court. He would confess nothing. Claycomb was taken from the train and was at once convc > ed to the city Jail In the patrol wagon. Although It had not been announced when he would arrive , there was i considerable crowd In the depot who gath ered about him. A majority of the ob servers gared upon him with an expression 3f aversion and he.IH compelled to listen to n good many remarks that would hive inado a nervous man decidedly 111 at ease. Ho apparently paid little attention to them. At the Jail Claycomb wat bookcl with th" charge of opening a grave and taking a dsad boJy therefrom. This was tba charge In the requisition papers , and It was thought best to put the exact wording opposite his name. Clajcomb Is a man some five feet ten or cloven Inches In height. Ho Is Dhabblly dressed. Ills face Is covered with a beird of several dajs' growth and he wears a mus tache. The larger of the two trunks has been Identified by police officers ao the one tint was found In Chj comb's house at Thirty- fifth and Jackson sheets at the time when lie was airested as a member ot the so-called Bruton gang. The gang was suspected ol doing a lot of thieving in the city and siur- roundlng country and Claycomb's house was searched for stolen property. The trunk was found In a back room , and contained a number ot pairs of shoes , which weie Identi fied as having been stolen from a &tore near Calhoun. C'aycamb tlicn said that the trunk belonged to Steve Hall' ' , ono of the other mem bers of the gang. It was allowed to re main In Claycomb's house after bis arrest. Early yesterday the bodies of Mrs. Larsen and Jacob Helln , stolen from Mount Hope cemetery , arrived at the union depot. They were encased Inlthe i > amo caskets which contained them when they were In the ground. Th2 cirtnshad'been forwarded to Des Molnos. They are consigned to Detec tive Cox and will ba held'by the police un'll the bod'es have been Identified and will then be turned over to the cemetery author ities , or to the relative * . Accompanying the 'coffins were the. two trunks In which the-'bodtes were shipped to DCS Molnes. These were objects of con siderate Interest to depot emplojes and loiterers. Both trunks arp small and It appears as 1f the grave robbers must have bad considerable , dlfflculty In blowing the bodies within ithem.Oncnls'a particularly small and narrow box. It Js but a few Inches over two feat In length and Is narrow and shallow , anil'lias a flat top. It is black. The other Is a cheap trunk , with a rounded top. It Is In a sad otato of delapldatlon. Half of the original bottom Is gone and the gap Is covered with boards , roughly nalle.l on Both trunks are marked with streaks of blood. FREMONT. Feb. 25 ( Special. ) Stanley Claycomb , who was arrested in Iowa for grave robbing , formerly resided In Fremont He d'd rot have the appearance cf being a laboring man and had no occuprtlon or visible means * of support. He associated with a gang of men who were convjcted four year ago of breaking Into freight cars and left town about the tlmo of their trials. One peculiar thing about b'm was that he was around town afternoons and evenings , but never In the forenoon. His neighbors re garded h'm with suspicion. He has not been around here much for the past three : 'cr AVBBSTER CITY , la. , Feb. 25.
