Rev. Herbert B. Johnson, pastor of the
Warren Strei-t Baptist church, Boston,
who delivered the baccalaureate ser
mon to the graduating class ot the
Slate university. It created a stir tn
local society circles. :
He declared there are children 5
years old In Boston who never see a
blade of grass. lie spoke of a recent
eastern ball given by a New Jersey
belle, whose father turned, loose Im
ported butterflies . costing 1100,000,
while women four blocks away were
working for l a week. '
The Itev.' Mr. Johnson Is a graduate

ELECTRIC fHEATRF
Milwaukee. Wis., June 22. A de
mand for the uye of stuel lire-proof
tar on all railroads In the United
States' Is one of the most Important
mutters to be taken up by the nation
al convention of the. Travelers' Pro
tective Association of America, opened
this morning at Alhnmbra theater. It
I estimated that nearly S000 drum
mers, with their wives and friends,
are In the city and the total attend
ance during the week Is expected to
reach S000. Numerous subjects of
Importance to traveling nieri tWII be
considered.
Following the Inaugural session this
morning, there will be a memorial
service und a business session this af
ternoon and nn Informal reception at
tho riaiiktntun house this evening.
Aside from the business meetings there
will be scores of entertainments, many
of which will be conducted by tho tin
brewing concerns of Milwaukee. The
final session will be held Friday.
The demand for steel car will be
made In earnest and arrangements will
be completed for carrying on the
propaganda In congress and before all
the state legislature. It Is urged by
the traveling men that laws requiting
a greater protection for life and limb
are of far greater Importance than a
reduction ot rate.
It has )ccn calculated that the larg
est percentage of Iom of life and limb
on railroad Is due to the telescoping
and burning of car In train wreck,
which render It Impossible to release
th victim before It I too late to save
their live.
