which th evangelist attributes th state
ment to a misquotation. In a letter to
Thomas M. Qaffney, prominent unionist,
Sunday aaya: '1 had In mind at the time
atatementa I had read In mags nines and
newspapers with reference to some labor
leaders who had been unfaithful to their
obligation, and perhaps Just su?h In
stances have come under your own ob
servation, but made no reference to any
specific case, nor did I Intend to Infer
anything of the sort. Becaus of criti
cism of an Individual It should not be
taken that all labor Is criticised.

my tabernacles. Is a union man, and I
have always been on the fair list with

Jt Is bringing red hot retorts. Rev.
John Wltteklnd of St John's ehureh
answered, "W must oppose Sunday'
campaigns emphatically becaus of his
coarseness, low Jests and irreverent
language. Ha vulgarises religion, and
religion above all demands reveranca,
simplicity and dignity. Coarse Jests, far
fetched puna and roars of laughter do
not indue genuine repehtanc of aln,
and do not beget faith, and quicken
spiritual life. Such an atmosphere la
deadening to religious conviction, which

NEW YORK JEWELER BUYS IT
How A. C. Olson, a well known young
horseman of 11m Fluff found $32,600, la
related In a letter written to The Bee by
P. O. Koas of Buffalo. N. T.
Mr. Rosa states that he waa returning
from the fc'an Francisco fair when a cow
boy boarded the train at Sidney, Neb.
Thla cowboy proved to be an old friend,
whom he had first mot In Welser, Ida.,
when but 14 yeara old. Rosa waa In the
imck ng car talking with a New Tork
precious stone dealer when Olaon boarded
the train and took a eeat opposite. They
leccgnlzrd each other. The letter con
tinues: "Olson pulled out a bottle of beer and
while searching hla pockets for an opener
pulled out a shingle nail, two small atones
and one large red-looking stone. Brown,
the precious stone dealed. looked at It
carefully and asked what he called it
'"Oh, it's Just a little red stone I
chanced to pick up In a draw one day,
said Olson. . .'
Present for Friend. ' '
''Brown asked what he wa going to do
with It, and Olaon aaid h wa going to
haver It mounted and present It to a
friend. . ' '. '
" Well, what'll you take for Itr asked;
Brown. " '
" Oh. I don't care to sell It,' said Ol
son. "They dickered for a whll and flnalry
Brown aald:
" '1 11 give you $10,000 for It.'
"Well, Mr. Olson came near fainting
right there. Tou could have knocked his
eyes off with a atlck, and he reached for
the little d atone, looking at It fbr
a while.
"Flnully Brown aald, 'Well, are you
going to sell?'
Mr. Olaon studied a while and then
tald. 'No, what la th best you'll giver
And finally, after parleying till we
were near North Platte, ,.eb., Mr. Brown
had come to' $30,000.
"Wanting to go to bed, Olson said. ITI
take $35,000.'
"Brown said. 'No. It's tnor than X
give,' and left the car, but soon returned
and offered $32,500. and they finally cam
to an agreement after Brown bad prom
ised to cut two small stones out and
mount them.
"I aaked Olaon what h was going to
do with th money.
" 'Well.' he said. TH go bom In a
