With a luck of funds already felt, It
Is believed the church will not take

should be subjected to analysis. If a
decision is made to give greater aid
to the work in the orient. It may be
expected that Dr. Gladden's fight will

TAKING EXAMINATION.
THE SILVER DAGGER" COMING.
Rev. T. R. Egerton leaves tonight
for Seattle to attend the national
meeting of the American Board of
the Foreign Missionary society of the
Congregational church. Washington
Gladden will be in attendance and one
of the Important things which will
come up for discussion is whether the
missionary board will accept what
Gladden terms "tainted money" from
John D. Rockefeller. The American
board was organized in 1810 in Mas
sachusetts and originally embraced
various denominations but gradually
the other denominations formed asso
ciations of their own and now the
American board Is confined to the
Congregational church. The special
train will stop at Walla Walla today
and hoM special services at Whitman
college after which they will proceed
to Seattle. This board spends a mil
lion a year tor missions. A large dele
gatlon from the New England states
will be In attendance.
The session begins September 14.
A renewal and a probable settlement
of the fight over Dr. Washington
Gladden's "tainted money" Issue will
likely be the most important feature
of the sessions. Upon the final out
come of this Issue will probably de-
pend the church's policy In the future.
It Is not a matter of general knowl
edge, but Congregatlonallsts under
stand the Rockefeller gift over which
the storm arose Is an annual contribu
tion. Past contributions cannot be af
fected by the result of Dr. Gladden's
renewal of the fight, but the future
stake Is a large one. It has already
been made known that Dr. Gladden's
compromise position will be to direct
the prudential committee not to solicit
money from men whose fortunes have
been made by questionable methods.
Ministers here believe that Dr.
Gladden will lose his fight. They be
lleve the prudential committee cannot
be set up as a body of moral censors,
and that the work of the church would
be seriously crippled by any such at
tempt
An Issue that will probably affect
the main fight will be the appeal of
the Chinese missions for money. This
appeal will be heard on the opening
day and will be urged by missionaries
from the field. Already circulars
setting forth the fact that the Chinese
missions need financial assistance

A persistent nnd a versatile crook
Is B. F. Hodge, who yesterday tried
to pass a raised check upon H. H
Wessel, but failed In the attempt
owing to the vigilant eye of George
Hartman at the First National bank.
Last evening It developed that Im
mediately atter his unsuccessful at
tempt at check raising, Hodge chang
ed his name to N. B. Taylor, and
passed a forged order upon S. C. Blt-
ner for the sum ot $45 nnd got away
with the money. The forged order
was signed with the name of George
Flemmlng.
According to the story, the above
amount of money was left on deposit
with Mr. Bltner by Flemmlng some
time ago, a receipt being taken for
the same. During the recent harvest
Hodge nnd Flemmlng worked to.

was stolen from him by Flemmlng.
Also, that he did not write any order

one else for the amount. Conse
quently It seems that after stealing
the receipt from his fellow harvester.
Hoilee wrote an order in favor of
himself as B. N. Taylor and pro
ceeded to collect the same from Mr.
Bltner. The payment was made by
Mr. Bltner In checks, one being for
the sum of $29, which was cashed
by the swindler at the Worklngmen's
clothing store. On learning ot the
fraud that had been worked, Mr. Blt
ner ordered payment stopped on the
nheckn anil the same was done. As
reunit the check for 29 is sun
held bv Mr. Moses, and It is appar
ently a question as to who Is going
to lose by the operation.

given of his man by Mr. Bitner, there

Therefore we mar all goods at safe and low prices. This Insures

Is no doubt but that he and Hodge
are one and the same, and that after
fulling In his attempt to pass tne
mised check unon Mr. Wessel he pro
ceeded lo work a different game In
another part of the city, meeting with
hotter success.
When Mr. Wessel returned, to his
store yesterday afternoon he found
Hodge gone, and It Is supposed that
he became alarmed over Mr. Wessel's
delay and proceeded to leave. Aside
from his exploit with Mr. Bltner,
nnthlnir has been heard of the man
since, and It Is now thought he has
left town.

good clothes cannot afford to wear "fairly good" laundry work. If !
you find your collars are poorly turned. If you find they have saw St

seeing him at the depot this morning
weite disappointed. During tne fore
noon It w.is learned that the gover

Induced to stop off for a short visit
at that place; consequently he would
not be aboard No. 1, when It passed
through here.
It was planned to have an appro

ernor when he passed through here,
and the same has been discussed by
local Mlssourlans and others ever
since It was learned he wus to pass

of that state, those in charge waited

last evening and all forenoon to una

ever could be learned In the matter
until nearly noon today.
