tion "J. 11. Stetson to FrntiK woir, a

Wolf always worked along tne Unci
Hint constant application gnve tho licit
tesults to tils einplojer, and nutomntlcallv
lie 1 1 aped the reward which conies from
horn t endeavor. The nwardlng of gifts
for faithful woik served to crente a bet
ter understanding among the workmen
and their superiors, and Inculcated the
Idea thnl lmpiovcmeut In the output of
the plant would be felt In the wage en
velopes. Mam believe that this policy of reel-
1 proclty at the Stetson plant was one of
I the foundation stones of It- success.
Wolf was known ns olio of the men who
never watched the clock nnd kept ever-
I lastingly nt each task until It wns com-

Aged Preacher litis Held Meetings

Kver since City Hall was built, the Ilev.
John Cavnaiigh, an Itinerant preacher,
has conducted little meetings on the
plaza. Ite was sincere In l.' utteiauces
and Intel ested the better class of people.
Hut last night the clergyman was stopped
as he Mulshed a prajer and Infoiincd of
the new rules, which forbid meetings on
the plnza.
The cop who told the aged preacher of
the ruin was veiy good-nnturcd about It,
and expiesscd sorrow that he was obliged
to take such a step. Many who have
been in thu linblt of listening to the aged
preacher uoio also disappointed. In or
der to learn the cause of the order tho
minister went to the olllco of the Super
intendent of Police, and was Informed
that the action was taken on nccount of
the utteiance of irresponsible speakers,
who held meetings for the solo purpose
of attacking city olllclals In foreign lan
guages. The aged preacher was broken-hearted
over the step taken. Ho has been preach
ing for ID years. He goes from clt to
