EXPLAINS WHY HE RETIRES
IIEV. F. E. ROBINSON" SAYS HIS
VIEWS HAVE CHANGED.
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."

JAIL FOR HOLD-UPS
Jack Hayes Sentenced to
Years, Burke to Four.
12
BOTH MEN PLEAD GUILTY
Burke Had Confessed to Robbing O
R. & N". Train, Implicating Hayes.
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.

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.

Alleged Breach of Contract.
A. C. Ruby, the well-known owner and
breeder of horses, yesterday filed suit In
the Circuit Court for $10,000 against
Gerhard A. Vehr. alleging breach of

the suit.

INDIAN DIES, AGED 100
August Crome, Xoted Jiative of
Xorth Vancouver, Passes Away.
VANCOUVER, B. C. Dec. 29. (Spe
cial.) Old August Crome, whose age was
in the vicinity of 100. died today in North
Vancouver. He was probably the oldest
Indian in British Columbia. His wife.
wrinkled and worn, is still alive and is
only a few months younger man he.
The old man had long since lost de
tailed track of his years. Curiously
enough, ne was born just where he died.
but at a time when no one dreamed of
North Vancouver. August remembered
well going on hunting and fishing trips in
the early part of last century when, so
far as he knew, there were no white peo
ple on tne Coast at all.
He was at Nanalmo and Victoria when
the first forts were established, but all
through the century his headquarters
had been at the native encampment
across tne inlet.
BABY LEFT ON DOORSTEP

Is
The dead body of a new-horn infant,
about 21 hours old, was found on the
doorstep of the home of Mrs. A. A. Kav-
ser at 683 Front street shortly before 9
o ciock yesterday morning. Mrs. Kayser.
on opening her front door to secure the
morning paper, found a bundle wrapped
in several old rags, which, on being
opened, was round, to contain the dead
body of a new-born male child. She im
mediately notified the police and Deputy
I oroner Kenworthy was summoned and
took charge of the body.
Coroner Norden. who Is investigating
the case, is oj the opinion that the in
fant died from exposure and lack of
proper care immediately after birth. The
little body was wrapped in remnants of
old clothing and some of these bear
marks which are expected to lead to the
Identification of the parents.
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.
