Pastor of Rodney-A venue Christian Church Expects to Preach Gospel, hut Not From Pulpit. Rev. F. Klmo Robinson, who resigned the pastorate of the Rodney-Avenue Christian Church and closed his work there Sunday, with the view to leaving WILL t'OSTIMK TO PREACH, KIT NOT FKO.W PULPIT. the ministry for some other occupation says that in doing so he has not aban doned any of the cardinal principles of the Christian religion. In speaking of his resignation yester day, Mr. Robinson remarked that he had for some time felt a change coming over his own views with reference to church methods, in that he had come to look for practical results in Christian life that do not seem to work out as he thought they should. He said he had come to consider that a Christian should be Chrlstlike in his practical affairs, and not to acc-pt religion m.-rely intellectual ly. However. Mr. Robinson gives the churches in general credit for becoming more practical. He says that some of the reports concerning his reasons for leaving the ministry have been miscon strued. He continued in charge of the Rodney-Avenue Christian Church nearly year after presenting his resignation. and after the members and officials knew of his views, and could have continued. so it Is said. Mr. Robinson has prepared his own statement, giving his reasons lor resigning, which Is as follows: I have been asked to make a statement as to trio reason for my leaving- the min istry. First. 1 winh to say that I do not believe that the ministry has or claims to have a monopoly on the propagation of the rellslon of Christ. There are other methods of reaching mankind with tho saving truth of the Master. I shall continue to preach 'hrist but not from the pulpit. Just wliat i of work 1 shall enguge in I have not yet fully decided. 1 have not changed my views as to the basic principles of the Gowpel. I believe In a fuller, more spiritual, and hence more practical interpretation of tbe fundamental teachlncs of the church than formerly. I believe that the healing of apostolic church must be resored before tho church can fully discharge its duty to suffering humanity. The age demands this ot the church and slowly but surely she is en deavoring to respond to this call. Christian healing Is. however, one of the lesser works and ministries of the church. I love the church and appreciate thor oughly the great w-ork she Is doing. T alio believe that preaching the Gospel is one f the greatest privileges ever accorded to man. During trve three years I have been pastor of the Rodney-Avenue Christian Church here has been a very gratifying grow-th In 11 departments of the work. The reliation- hlp between people and pastor has been a most happy one. It is with uutijing but ove for the church that I lay down the work of the ministry. I have changed in he past. 1 expect to continue to change ls long as I live. For It has been said. "To ive is to change, and to grow is to have changed often." ON SALETODAY.

Both Men Realize Hopeless ness of Their Case. Owen Jack Hayes, alias Jack Wal ton, who with his accomplice, William Burke, was arrested by the police on a charge of holding up the Chicago Ex press of the O. It. & N. December 17 and robbing the express car. yeBterday pleaded guilty when arraigned in Judge Gantenbein's court and was sen tenced to 12 years In the Penitentiary. Burke, whose confession on December 21 implicated Hayes, was sentenced by Judge Gantenbeln to four years. The third man concerned in the hold-up, known as "the Swede," is still at large, but it Is believed Information has been obtained which will cause this man's apprehension with little difficulty. Ever since his arrest, on December 20. Hayes had persistently denied his guilt, notwithstanding his partner's confession. Realizing, however, the hopelessness of his position, Hayes yesterday changed his plea to guilty. The crime of which Hayes and Burke were convicted yesterday was one of the boldest train robberies In Oregon his tory the holding up of O. R. & train No. 1, on the night of December IT, near Clarnie, a small town distant from Port- ind about eight miles. Soon after passing the former point the engineer and fireman were startled by a command to throw up their hands. Turning, they were confronted by Hayes, Burke ajid their accomplice. The engine crew had no opportunity to offer resist ance and Engineer Donlon was ordered a moment later to stop the train, which he did. Fireman Bon was left momen tarily unguarded and made good his es cape, though twice fired upon. Messen ger Huff, of the express company, se creted the valuables taken from the safe. The door to the rear car was blown open by nltro-glycerlne. Owing to Messenger Huff, the robbers secured only an Insignificant sum and a quantity of cheap Jewelry and trinkets. Three days after the hold-up Burke was arrested as a suspect, and in his confession to The Oregonian a day or two afterward implicated Hayes. SAYS PARTY UNGRATEFUL FATHER CASEY RESIGNS AS CHAPLAIN" IX ARMY. Accuses Republicans of Driving Him Out -Suddenly Leaves Vancou ver and Goes East. ST. I5UI9. Mo., Dec. 29. (Special.) 'Republican ingratitude has forced me to resign my chaplaincy," says Father Joseph Casey, for four years chaplain of the First Infantry, mow stationed at Vancouver, in a telegram cent from Port land to a St. Louis friend. Father Casey was born and reared in St. Louis and educated at St. Louis University. His father, Peter A. Casey, a retired St. Louis merchant, when shown the 'tele gram, said: "This is all Greek to me. My son never had intimated any trouble In his letters to me. On the other hand. I always have been impressed that there was perfect harmony between him and his superiors." The telegram recalls to the minds of St. Louisnns the fact that Father Casey, when in 9t. Louis last October attending the laying of the new Cathedral corner stone, expressed himself freely upon his advocacy of W. H.- Taft for President, and quoted the views of Archbishop Harty. of Manila, to whom he referred as being strong lor Mr. Tart. He said the archbishop made it a theme of his daily prayers that Mr. Taft might be elected. Further than giving his own views and those of Archbishop Harty on Mr. Taft, Father Casey quoted several Democratic business men of the Islands whose views were Identical with his own. He also stated that the Army, as a whole, was for Taft. GIVES RESIGNATION SUDDENLY Chaplain at Vancouver Abruptly Starts for St. Louis. VANCOUVER BARRACKS. Wash., Dec. 29. (Special.) Joseph Casey.

Stark Street "Enjoys tannquake Tramp, 'Cop" and Paeklngbox Otve f irst - Class Imitation of Real Thing In I'p - to - Date Temblors. Residents of a rooming-house on Stark street had an earthquake all of their own Monday night. Recently the house changed hands, and the new landlady brought her rurniture encased In huge boxes. These crates, save one, were left In the yard. The other was left on the back porch. Into this a forlorn tramp crawled for shelter. The policeman on the beat saw the ragged figure of the tramp disappaar into the alleyway beside the house, and in vestigated. Finally the rays from hij lantern fell upon the visage of the tramp in the box on the porch. The hobo thought It expedient to "play 'possum, and kept his eyes closed. The valiant officer drew his trusty locust foot-warmer and gently "fanned" the tramp. The sleeper leaped up and bolted, and so did the picking-case; the latter thundering down the porch steps and jarring the neighborhood. And be fore the alarmed gaze of various white- robed figures that appsared in the win dows, the brave policeman silently stole away. No second shock coming, the scared lodgers returned to bed.
