REV. P. T. ROUSE READS PAPER At Gathering of Locpl Union He Dr. clnrea thnt I'ornirr 11ar Hnll Player la Crailr, lint Ik CltrUtlnlt nt Heart. Billy Sunday and his theology anf methods were discussed pro and con mostly con at the regular meeting of tha Omaha Ministerial union at the Young Men's Christian association. Hov. Frederick T. rtouse started the talk by reading a paper on "ITellglon and Theology," In which he closed with a plea for"to!eratlon of differences In sec ondary theology, In order to co-operate on the main points of religion, rtev. H. E. Tralle, professor of Bible and Sunday school pedagogy at Hardin college, Mexico, Mo., now In Omaha for the Baptist Institute, rose to congratulate Dr. Bouse on his paper, and then took occasion to. rap th base ball evangelist, who la coming to Omaha next fall. "Educational evangelism In better than high pressure evangelism," he declared. 'I heard 'Billy preach nt Scranton," said Rev. J. M. Moore of New York City, secretary of tho missionary educational department of the Baptist church. "He sent people to hell Indiscriminately. I challenge his extreme theology for this day and age "The way he put people through the mill, herding them through so-called con- version by the hundreds. In tho midst of Intense excitement, raised tho question In my mind whether such 'converts' can settle down afterward In tho churches and live a normal Christian life." Woman Broods Over Circumstances and Attempts Own Life Mrs. Edward Hydoct, 623 North Thirty fourth street, attempted to kill herself late Sunday night at the home of a frjend, Mrs. A. Jazank, Forty-fourth and L streets, South Omaha. The husband of the woman, Edward Hydoct, recently lost his position with the local street car company and left for Chicago, where he went to seek employment. Jle left his wlfo and their 8-months-old baby In Omaha, without any cash, It Is said, and the circumstances of the family so preyed upon Mrs. Hydoct that ahe sought to kill herself with a .38 caliber revolver. The wound was Inflicted In the right side and the woman was taken to the South Omaha General hospital where the bullet was extracted. Mrs. Hydoct Is resting easy and her chances aro fair for recovery, HOME FOR FRIENDLESS IS DISCONTINUED The lodging house and men's headquar tera feature of the Omaha SocIety for the Frlcndlesa was discontinued Saturday and the home at 100 SoUth Fourteenth street has been ctosed.

Flynn reported that a board had been appointed by the council two or three years ago to ocr see the Issuance of auto licenses and reg ulate tho automobile passenger traffic, but that the board had forgotten It ex isted. It was composed of Flynn, Police Commissioner -J. J. Ryder and. Park Com missioner J, B. Hummel. Only one meet ing of the board was held.
