"Pagan City."
The west cam In or Its share of at
tention today at the Baptist convention.
To Ban Francisco was promised a spe
rlal appropriation for religious work.
The request had been made in view of
the appalling religious conditions there,
and investigation seemed to prove the
necessity of additional funds to carry
on the Baptist work.
At a conference between the California,
representatives - an dconventlon repre
sen tat Ives, held Sunday, It was unani
mously agreed that he city must have
rirompt relief. The settlement of the
sum to be appropriated was left with
the executive and finance committees.
-The west, too, received unstinted
praise and tributes from some of the
biggest men of the convention when tha
meeting was turned over to the Horn
.Mission union. Two - deputations war
sent out by the unU some two weeks
.before the meeting of the convention,
one to reach Portland by the southern
route and the other by the northern
route, studying the status of home mis
sion work across the continent H. P.
Klyver of Indiana headed the party by
the southern route and C. C. Barry by
the northern route. Both spoke of great

MOST NOTABLE
HELD BY BAPTIST DENOMINATION
Editor of Chicago Standard
Gives Review of Work
of the Convention. .'
J. 8. Dlckerson, editor In chief of tbe
Standard, published at Chicago, who has
attended Baptist annual meetings during
more than 25 years, believes tha meeting
now In proa-resa In Portland to b tha
greatest and most spectacular in tne his
tory of the denomination. Mr. Dicker
son, whose views expressed through the
Dtanaara, wntcn is regaraea as uie lead
ing paper of the denomination, are con
ceded to have influenced Baptists irreat-
ly toward the revolution in method ac
complished at the Portland convention
summed up breifly his impressions . of
the convention and what he considers
will be Us results this morning by say
ing: "he character of the meeting Is differ
ent from that of any ever held before
by the Baptists of the United States. By
the organization of the 'Northern Bap
tist convention yast year at Oklahoma
City, the denomination had revolution
ised Its missionary activities. Previ
ous to that time the annual meetings of
tha Bantieta had been nothing; more tnan
the anniversaries of their three principal
missionary societies. Now these so
cieties are cractlcally united in the con
vention. The work is now unified. "You
cannot compare the two kinds of meet
ings In all respects, but in certain as
pects the meetings being held are far
superior to any ever Deiore neia. -The
arrangements, he said, have never
been excelled. The committees have all
done their work well, while every vis
itor felt as if he had been entertained
by his near rejatlves. The convention,
Mr. Dlckerson assented, hafl been re
markably harmonious. Helaughed at

Delegates were especially Indignant, he
said, at tne implication 01 a morning
paper that the election of officers was a
"machine" action, "nothing could be

Stories of Heartburn and

Stories of small Jealousies, periods
Of pouting, humiliating remarks, varied
tilts Of language and deception , In ob
taining a decree of divorce that was all
but final are being told Judge Ganten
beln In the circuit court today in the
trial of the suit Of G.' Lewis Case, re
ceiving clerk s in a local department
store, against Florence Case, who Is
teaching school in Clarke county, Wash
ington. Case was awarded a divorce by de
fault in Shorman county by Judge ft. R.
Butler last January, but Mrs. Case suc
ceeded in having; her default- set aside
on the ground that her husband had
concealed knowledge of the suit from
her. Judge Butler then ordered the
case to this county for trial and now a
divorce is being sought on both sides,
each charging cruel treatment against
the other.
Mrs. Case alleges that her husband
was harsh and insulting while she lived
with him, following their marriage in
Queens county, Canada, in June, 1907.
She says that after she had been se
riously ill and the most of her hair fell
out he ridiculed her plight, that he re
peatedly invited her to return to Canada
and that for months he would only
speak to her when spoken to, saying
"ves' and "no" in answer to her ques
tions. .
Case's charges consist of allegations1
that she was intensely Jealous of him
and fancied that he was too friendly
with other women, when as a matter of
fact, he was hard at work. He also al
leges that on one occasion she used vile
language and struck him.
When Case secured his decree ' In
Sherman county he made an affidavit
asserting that his wife's address was
Vancouver. Wash, fiha atva ha li
better, for she was in Correspondence
with his sisters. Service of summons
was by publication In a country weekly
and It was not until March 7t she says,
that she learned that her huaband had
secured a divorce. He asserts that she
expressed great pleasure when she first
learned that Judge Butler had granted
him a divorce. .
Both sides are asking for the custody
of their child, a boy a little over one
year old. A. E. Clark and Andrew Han

lawfully in possession of the animals.
They were kept in custody only a short
time and - released, whereupon they
started back toward Conneel with, the
herd, and when arrested at Washtucna
by .the Franklin county officer were en
deavoring to repurchase a team that
they had sold there while on their
way to La Crosse the day before. They
gave as their reason for wanting to
get tne team pack tnat, aunougn they
had purchased all of the animals In
they since had caused to believe that
they were stolen, and they were going
to take them back to the place where
they got them in an endeavor to locate
the lawrui owner.
Authorities Doubt Btory.
Whitman countV officers are of the
belief that this story is only a bluff,
and that in reality the men are mem
bers of the same gang as those now in
custody here, but that they became
frightened when arrested at La Crosse
and were trying to get the stolen
horses back on the ranges from where
they had been taken.
Deputy Sheriff 1. F. Kauffman, who
took the "Montana Kid" back to Yak
ima this afternon, is particularly of
this belief, and states that it is his
opinion that the men are all members
of an organised gang that has been giv
ing the central Washington authorities
trouble for the last three or four years.
A concentrated investigation is going
to be begun by the sheriffs of Whit
man. Franklin, Yakima, Douglas, Ben
ton and Adams counties in an endeavor
to locate other members of the gang.

' "These issues haye been revolving, in

any man or set of men to have per

individualistic way of doing things to
Incorporate themselves in a great con

"To think that then tMno-. .-

can hardly understand how it should all
have been done, except that the minds
of ptir people are broadening as the
