in Singapore Conference

How a whole conference adjourned to
take up arms and quell an Indian mu
tiny is told in a letter just received
here from W. Perry Eveland, Meth
odist Bishop of Asia, with headquarters
at Manila, Philippine Islands,
The thrilling experience of the Bishop
was shared by Mrs. Eveland, and oc
curred during the uprisiug of native
troops at Singapore, where the Eve
lands had gone to hold conference. The
mutiny attained such proportions, the
letter, dated "China Sen, February
23," says, that civilians had to take
up arms, and 1,800 women and children
had to be sent on shipboard, among
them Mrs. Eveland, who was holding a
conference of the Methodist women at
Singapore.
/Conference, headed by the Bishop,
marched down to the armory and was
armed with rifles. Before the troops
were subdued some of the amateur sol
diers had enough of war to last a life
time. \
Dr. Eveland, a Philndelphian, has
held pastorates at Chainbersburg and
York, Pa. Por four years he was di

Move in Registration Oase Indicates
That Man Forced to Retire May
Try to Regain Bench
Uniontown, April 20.—That ex-
Judge Robert E. Umbel, who a few
weeks ago was forced to retire from
the bench, will be a candidate for the
office he gave up at the demands of
Senator William E. Crow, Republican
State chairman, is the belief now ex
pressed in political circles. He started
his "campaign to clean up the politics
of Payette county" Saturday, when a
bill in equity was presented to the
court asking that the eounty commis
sioners be restrained from sending out
the registration books prepared for the
regular spring registration. The court
granted a rule on the commissioners,
which is returnable to-day.
John S. Langley, one of the com
missioners and the Republican chair
man of the (board, said last night that
none of the books hijd been sent out.
He said that the books are exactly like
those used in other counties and that
this form has been used ever since the
registration act was passed.
l'ormer Judge Umbel said there was
a clause in the act requiring assessors
to place the names in the book as
they are registered. On the books there
is a notice to the assessors asking
them to place the names in the books
alphabetically. Umbel said that this
was in direct violation of the law.
While the candidacy of ex-Judge
I'mbel is being talked of in some quar
ters, it was stated by a Democratic
politician who opposed his candidacy
in 1909 that he will be opposed iu
