BIG RUSSIAN BEAR GOES ON A "tEAR"
AT GERMAN BAZAAR; CAUSESyPANIC
Breaks His Chain, Enjoys Breakfast of Ice Cream and
Scares Cops Caught, Returned to Cage and
Now All Is Well
"Little Jim," a big Itusslan bear, bit his
chain In two and caused a "Hot and panto
at the German bazaar In Convention Hall,
early today. He chased watchmen and
policemen, who were the only human In
tho building, and laughed In Husslan fash.
Ion that Is, outright and hearty-like
when erne policeman tried to catch him
by putting oalt on bin tall He had the
time of his 15-ycar life nnd breakfasted
on Ice cream until the stern face of his
owner appeared. Then ho became as
docile as a lamb.
Jim weighs about BOO pounds. He Is
owned by Mllcnko Petrovlch, of Camden,
and hRB been doing n wrestling stunt nt
the German bazaar. Jim offers to thrmv
George Shcnk, a fireman. He, In turn,
called George nose, John Wolframi John
Kohler nnd Henry Flottman, all wntch
men. To tho little nrmy was added
Charles Petrovlch, son of the owner. Then
tho chase began.
Jim liked the Idea of being loose for
nwhllc, and then turned, turtle-like that
Is, slowly Just to show that he was "nary
o bit" afraid to hold Up the honor of hl
race. He chased his woutd-be captors In
every direction, until he knocked over a
refrigerator In his hurry nnd spilled a
few quarts of Ice cream, on which he
breakfasted.
Meanwhile a riot call had been sent
or lick any man within a given time, but t Into the l'ark nnd Lehigh avenues station
t'ls rumored that there have not been and Policemen Koldlno and Bradley rushed
many contestants In that line.
Perhaps Jim tired of being admired Ho
was fractious all last night. Shortly after
6 o'clock this morning he; decided Hint llfo
In a cago was becoming unbearable, nnd
after snapping his chain he dashed
through tho canvas walls of his home nnd
started things at n livelier paco than had
been Set at the bazaar nil lait week.
Policemen Brown nnd Crowe were the
first to see Jim emerge. They called J,
to the hall. Soldlnc, It Is said, Btoppcd nt
a grocery sloro to buy a bag of salt to
put on Bruin's tall.
Tho finale came when the owner arrUed
from Camden to find "Little Jim" looking
decidedly big In sole possession of one of
the balconies.
"Go sell your papers," the stern voice
of tho master said, nnd Jim quailed. Ho
was led meekly back to his cage, which, of
course, will be repaired.

Tim n . r .
Stonemen began arriving from their
sojourn In Pittsburgh In this morning's
early hours) Broad Street Stntlon nnd
West Philadelphia were choked with
them at short Intervals from n little after
midnight on, and they looked satisfied,
but tired.
Their meeting In Pittsburgh was tre
mendously successful, but their pre-ar-rangements
had not been of the best, nnd
many of them made meager Bhlft for
Bleeping Quarters; army cots anil police
station advantages were resorted to to
house the. moro than BO00. They came
back In 12 special trains, starting about
five o'clock and leaving every seven
minutes.
The Itev. H. C. Stone, whq led the Fel
lowship, did not leave until after 10 p. m
attaching his special car to a regular train.
PARADE A SUCCESS.
The parade yesterday which preceded
the meeting was a remarkable success.
The thousands of men In their straw hats
made a good-looking multitude, and the
three bands created much enthusiasm.
Music Halt, of the Exposition Building,
was crowded to the doors when the meet
ing was called to order by J. F. Gillespie,
chairman. Mayor Armstrong made a
brief address of welcome, after which Doc
tor Stone was Introduced. Doctor Stone
epoke briefly, as ho had to address an
overflow meeting In Machinery Hall, and
also attend the Initiation at Trinity Epis
copal Church later, where 70P rew mem
bers took tho first degree. Doctor Stone
said, in part:
"Some of the objections raised against
our organization is that we are alleged to
have given Communion In our clubhouse.
If I remember correctly, my Bible teaches
me that the Lord gathered together his
few chosen disciples In a clubroom and
administered the last Supper. But we
have not-given Communion in our club
houses, as we have none to give it In.
"They have started tne old story that
this is an Episcopalian Church move
ment. In Philadelphia we have turned
ba"ck 8000 men to their churches nnd only
,1 per cent, came to Episcopal churches.
We have from 30 to 35 per cent, of our
members baptized every Sunday, yet the
Episcopal Church his only baptized 1 per
cent, of this number. If I am as smart
a man as I am alleged to be. I will have
to fish better than that to build up an
Episcopalian organization.
"Our Idea Is church unity among Prot
estants. "We are not antagonistic to .any
one. We want first of all to have the
open Bible to be a part of the curriculum
of our public schools, and those Bchools
directed by people selected by tho parents.
1 will tell you n secret. We nre prepar
ing legislation ho that the parents will
elect the Hoards of Education. We are
not political All we expect to do Is to
elect the proper men to tho proper plnces,
"Wo arc strongly patriotic. Wo call It
a crime for any foreigner to come to this
country, llo upon $3 per week, send
about $18 to 20 per week back to his
native country, then return to It to enjoy
Its ndvantnges after having amassed a
competency.
"Wc hivo Introduced a harmonious feel
ing between employer nnd employe In
Philadelphia. Itecently I wns sent for to
settle n strike, t did It by making the
employer nnd his employes members of
the Fellowship."
On tho platform with Doctor Stono sat
Judgfl Jacob J. Miller. -Councllmon Dll
llngcr nnd Garland and many other rep
resentative Pittsburghers. "Billy" Sun
day's name brought forth a round of
cheers.
STOP FOB PRAYER. ,
Whon Mr. Stone was In the midst of
his nddrcss, there camo from the rear
of tho hall a voice, high-pitched, saying:
"Excuse me; It Is 12 o'clock and wo
have to go to our devotions."
The addrens wns halted for 30 seconds
and every one bent his head In prayer.
Then tho speaker cxplntncd that tho
half-mlnuta prayer every day at noon
wns n requirement of tho Stonemen's
order, nnd ho commented:
"If every ono would offer a prayer
for 30 seconds In Pittsburgh nt noon
overy day. you would not hear any moro
about strikes."
Beforo the big meeting Mr. Stone nd
drcssed tho Emory Brotherhood Bible
Class In tho Strndy Avenue Baptist
Church, nnd nlso addressed an overflow
meeting of 2000 men there.

THREE-YEAR NAVY PLAN
GETS DEWEY SUPPORT
Five-year Program Too Slow.
Japanese Activity One Cause
of Change
WASHINGTON, May 1. -Putting the
American navy In second place within
three years nnd building It up&n n
definite, vcllbntanced plan designed to
produce nnd maintain a fighting fleet of a
size to meet any emergency a real pre
paredness program wilt be offered to tho
country within n short time.
This program will have the approval
of Admiral Dewoy and the Genernt Hoard.
For ten days this Gcncrnl Hoard, com
posed of the ndmlrnls nnd expert men
of tho navy, has ,bccn working upon this
suggested plan. Representative Thomas
S. Dutler, rnnklng Republican member of
the. House Naval Affairs Committee, after
a conference with his nssoctates decided
that tho recommendations for a five-year
program wero too slow, as "even at the
end of that time the United States navy
would probably be In third or fourth
place.
After having reached this decision, Mr,
Butler conferred with Secretary Danlelr,
who agreed to ask the genernl board to
supply Mr. llutltr u.t.i t.ic I;-.. r.natlon
desired, such Information to bo presented
to Congress. It vns explained to Secre
tary Daniels that It was the desire of tho
group of men uho wish to see the United
States Navy 'In second place within three
years to promote such a scheme without
any political considerations. While mo't
of tho men who hnve quietly considered
a second-place navy are Republicans,
every effort will bo made after tho report
Is presented to Congress tff enlist the ild
of all parties, A striking nspect of tho
movo Is that It originates with Mr. Hutlci,
who at ho time has stood for an excesilvi!
armament.
Developments In the 'Orient, Including
tho building by Japan of four new crull
ers. Just authorized, have convinced Mr
Ilutlcr that the safety of this nntloii do
mnnds a big navy.

Matchless Cooeio!
Piano That Res
"So much alike and yet so different," said a customer after he had been
shown the vital parts of a Matchless Cunningham Piano.
True, nearly all Pianos look alike when on the floor, but the Piano, the music,
the results, the efficiency, is inside, not on the case, and Cunningham Pianos are
made inside as carefully as the best Pianos are made outside.
A pretty case can cover a multitude of inferior Piano constructions and
parts, and when purchasing from a dealer, who in many cases does not know
Piano construction, you take the chance of later dissatisfaction.
To eliminate all chances, it will be worth time and money to inspect the
product of a manufacturer of known reputation who has made Pianos for over
a quarter of a century. '
