STEPS HAVE BEEN TAKEN LOCATE BISHOP IN TEXAS Reports Made by Ministers of the Work Done in Their Charges Prison Mission Work May Be Started at an Early Date in This State. The third day of the West Texas conference opened yesterday morninjf with an Increased attendance, members who had been detained arriving on Thursday night's and yesterday morning's trains. The session opened with the usual religious services and at opce got down to business. The minutes of the last session were read and approved. Rev.

M. E. Lancaster of Llano was appointed on the board of demands to till a vacancy. A telegram was received from Dr. Eliott of Ijtredo referring the conference to the twelfth chapter of the Philliplans, the first twelve verses, which were read and the secretary requested to make a suitable replv.

Report of Dr. G. W. L. Fiy, custodian of the Thoiton bequest, was presented to the conference.

It shows total interest collected on loans during the year JS0O, which has been turned over to the treasurer of the Joint board of finance. A Bishop in Texas. Dr. Rankin made a verbal report on tho proposition to secure In Texas an episcopal residence for Bishop E. Hoss, whom it is desired to locate In Texas.

He stated a brick residence and improved property had been selected in Dallas to cost JlS.DbO, the money to be paid by an annual assessment of five per cent on the salaries of all pastors. Dr. Rankin said Bishop Hons was in Dallas a few weeks ago and was well pleased with the property, and he, Dr. Rankin, believed a resident bishop here in Texas would be of great advantage to the cause of Methodism In the state. It was suggested that the purchase of a residence for Bishop Hoss might be construed by some as a slight to Bishop Key, but Dr.

Rankin expluined that Bishop Key was heartily in accord with the movement. It was finally moved that the whole matter be referred to a committee, and Bishop Duncan appointed Dis. Scott, Black and Biggs the committee. Drs. E.

B. Wright and Southall, Presbyterian pastors here in Austin, were then introduced to tho conference by Bishop Duncan. The committee uppointed to Investigate the charge of of his post of duty against Dr. Ncal, reported exonerating him and his character was passed. An Old Preacher Talks.

Dr. J. T. Gillette of Lockhart, one among the very oldest of Methodist preachers in Texas unit now on the su-peranuated list, who reached the city Thursday night, took the floor and made few Interesting remarks, during which he said: "If I had a desire to create some levitv I would tell a good story of Bishop Duncan, but" The bishop here interrupted by staying: "1 am Impressed with the wonderful facility the Texus brethren have for manufacturing stories on me." Dr. Gillette, continuing, said; "Well, bishop, you remember once when you had preached a sermon some asked you if that was preaching and you retort-d, 'If that isn't preaching what is Dr.

Gillette touchlngly referred to the aged ministers present who, he said, "like the lamented Jackson, will soon cross over the river and rest in the shade." Bishop Duncan, after hearing a ministerial report from one of the mom- bers, took occasion to urge upon til the pastors pre 0 nt the Importance of good literature in their charges, and the very great Importance of studying the discipline of the church and enforcing the rules. "Plow us close to the corn us you can." said the Bishop as he admonished the ministers to live close to and enforce the discipline of their church. Reports From Ministers. Under the head of ministerial reports many of the ministers made reports verbally of the work in their charges and they were very favorable as a rule. Unfavorable financial reports were invariably from boll weevil districts.

One of the pastors. In his report, said In substance that the stewards of his church had cheerfully charged up against him as part of his salary fees he received for performing wedding ceremonies. "Well, that was a very mean thing to do," spoke up Bishop Duncau. "It Smith i was really to mean to mention and i talk about." It was evident the entire conference entertained the same opinion. Rev.

W. M. Bouz, president of the Fort Worth Pyrotechnic college, mid Rev. M. F.

Cowden of the Austin Cumberland Presbyterian church were Introduced to the conference. The committee on the orphans' home reported thut twelve pastoral districts hud failed to report their contributions and the committee had been unable to make tho appropriations for next yenr. These reports may get in before the adjournment of the conference. Prison Mission Work. A letter was read from Mrs.

A. M. Hill calling attention to prison mission work and asking the co-operation of Methodists In the organization of a mission in Texas. The letter was commetuled to Bishop Duncan, who culled attention to th need of reformatory work, among the convicts, especially young criminals. Rev.

W. It, Wages was readmitted Into the conference work. The conference then adjourned until 8 o'clock. Conference Notes. One of the ministers reporting" yesterday slated that out of a membership of a little over 200 only about twenty Christian Advocates were taken.

"Well, they are about worn out before they get around, are they not?" npnke up the bishop. "They are tiot passed around," was the reply; "the people appear to be constitutionally opposed to newspapers." A report from the Del Rio district yesterday stated that religious work among the Mexicans In that section was very prosperous and doing groat good among them. Dr. T. Gillette, who reached conference yesterday, is a native Texan and is probably the oldest man attending the conference.

He carries his age well, however, and appears much younger thun he really is. He has seen hard service and lias had a won derful experience covering many yeurs In sparsely Bettled frontier districts. He can tell a good story and Is an entertaining talker, having a happy, cheery disposition. What he doesn't know about the trials und hardships of an Itinerant Methodist preacher isn't worth knowing. He Is capable of giving the younger set valuable advice.

Many members of the conference visited the Htate Institute for the Blind yesterday afternoon, where a special program had been arranged for their entertainment. The committee on the Methodist Publishing house met yesterday afternoon to prepare Its report and was pleased to find an increase of $1 0 0 5 3 4 ft in sales of literature over lust year. The committee heartily commends all the periodicals and all pastors are i urged to increase their circulation. The Texas Christian Advocute in en- peeially commended and Its editorial utterances endorsed, especially its stand on temperance and local option. The committee elected Rev.

T. Lee of Marble Falls a member of the Joint board of publication, vice Rev. W. J. Joyce, who retires by limitation.

Many of the pastors who are on the anxious seat ub to where they will be sent next year.

RAT'S PECULIAR DEATH IN TRAVIS COUNTY JAIL HANGED ITSELF BY THE FOOT IS THE STORY CIRCULATED BY JAILER MEREDITH, WHO MADE THE DISCOVERY.

A large rat, nearly the size of a cat, met death in a peculiar manner in the county Jail yesterday morning. The story is told by Jailer Meredith, who discovered the dead rodent when he made his early morning rounds of the Jail yesterday morning. The rat had hanged itself accidentally. It did not hang by its neck, but by one of Its forefeet. It had evidently been romping about the bath tub and in Jumping was caught by one foot in a tangled up string whli hung from one side of the tub.

All attempts to extricate itself were in vain and the rat died from exhaustion. NIP IT IN THE BUD. First Appearance of Dandruff a Forerunner of Future Baldness.

THE GREATEST FOOTBALL GAME EVER SEEN IN AUSTIN CALLED ON ACCOUNT OF DARKNESS, SCORE FIVE TO FIVE. FIERCE WAS THE PLAYING BY BOTH CF THE TEAMS The Game Abounded in Fine Individual Playing and Also Team Work The Championship of the South Still Between Vanderbilt and Texas.

The Commodores and the Texans met on the striped lawn yesterday afternoon in one of the most spectacular games ever witnessed in the state. The game was fast and furious, abounding In much fine individual play, but in more fine team work. The Vanderbilt team had the advantage of weight and old players, but the Texas team was on Texas soil. Aided by the tinest lot of rooting seen on the athletic field for years, the Texans literally swept the Tennessee-ans off their feet in the first half. The Texans won the hist half, but at the cost of losing Captain Watson.

In the second half, without Watson's cheering voice behind the line, the Texans were forced back until a touch down was made. Neither side kicked goal, so the score stood 5 to 6. The Texans got together in one of the prettiest rallies ever seen and had Vandeiutlt going steadily back when nature and squabbling saved Vanderbilt from sure defeat. Altofether it was one of the greatest games ever seen in Texas. The First Half.

In the first half Texas won the toss and kicked off to Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt made first down twice, but by superb defense on the part of Texas was held for downs. Then the Long-horns got into motion and went right down to Vanderbilt's 5 yard line. Robinson failed to gain. Scarbrough went through for 2 yards.

On the third down and 3 yards to gain, Watson got through for 2 1-2 yards. The ball went over to Vanderbilt on downs when it was only 18 Inches from Vanderbilt's goal line. Hamilton kicked out to Vanderbilt's 40 yard line. Texas got mad then and literally tore up the Tenneseeans. Searcy wheeled his men right and wheeled them left through tackles and guards until the ball was back on Vanderbilt's 5 yard line again.

Here Watson was laid out with a sprained shoulder. Then ensued one of those scenes that makes people love a man. With the bones of his shoulder reeking with pain from torn ligaments, with the doctor advising him to come out of the game, and the coach commanding, the brave-hearted captain absolutely refused to give up. Two heavyweight substitutes were told to take him out. Suffering agonies from his injuries, Watson cried like a baby and fought like a tiger.

The coach yielded and the plucky fellow took his place as right half. The play was called, the ball was snapped, and Texas went through for 4 yards; but Watson wasn't in the play. His will acted, but overwrought nature gave way, and he melted down In his tracks, with an agonizing groan. With only 1 yard to gain Watson was carried off forcibly from the field and Frances put in his place. At the next play SScarbrough tore through for a touchdown.

Adams missed goal. The rest of the half was taken up in kicking. At the close of the first half 300 students, headed by the Varsity bund, zig-zagged over the field giving yells and counting the score. The Second Half. In the second half, the loss of Watson was felt and seen.

Vanderbilt got the ball started down the Held and by a series of mass on tackle and end plays soon planted the ball squarely behind the goal posts. Hamilton missed an easy goal, and the rooters went wild, for it was a foregone conclusion that "the greatest fullback in the south would not miss a goal that was squarely in front of him. Texas kicked to Vanderbilt. who returned to 35 yard line. On a fake kick, Hamilton made the most spectacular run of the game for a gain of 40 yards round Texas' right end, only to drop the ball when tackled.

Searcy was right there for Texas and promptly fell on the ball. With the ball on her own 85 yard line, Texas began a series of line bucks that Just simply took the nerve out of Vanderbilt. On a quarterback kick Frances fell on the ball on Vanderbilt's 18 yard line. The referee ruled that Vanderbilt was entitled to the ball because none of her players hud touched it when Texas got it. Vanderbilt kicked 30 yards.

Texas ripped up Vanderbilt for more gains. Searcy kicked to Vanderbilt's 18 yard line, to Kyle, who was downed in his tracks. Vanderbilt tried two trick plays for small gain, then kicked out to her 50 yard line. Householder and Scarbrough Just literally tore Vanderbilt's lineup in a series of tackle through tackle plays. Every time Texas made a gain, Vanderbilt wanted time out.

Finally, with the ball in Texas' possession on Vanderbilt's 19 yard line, the game was called on account of darkness. Texas Did Splendid Work. When so much tine playing was done comparisons would be Invidious. On offense Scarbrough was easily the hero of the day. On defense, the Texas team as a whole did splendid work.

Searcy played his part better than he ever played before, winning much applause by his line catches and good runs. The two teams are not so nearly in the same class as the score indicates. Nothing but Vanderbilt's superior weijht and the other circumstances alluded to kept Texas from winning by a good, safe score. Wiih the exception of the one time that Vanderbilt scored, Texas' goal line was never in danger. But four times Vanderbilt's goal was in serious danger, and the whole battle was fought out practically In Vanderbilt's territory.

The championship will be undecided unless Vanderbilt or Texas' should hi: defeated before the end of the sa-aon. Neither team has thus far been defeated by a southern team, so honors are even. If, however, Texas should win the rest of her games and Vanderbilt should lose one or more, Texas would be champion. Fo of Vanderbilt. The crowd was something fine to look at.

Fully 1200 people saw the game. Vanderbilt's colors were evident on streamers and flags, but her few rooters could do nothing against the oceans of noise rolled from both sides of the field. The noise was so absolutely deafening that the olli-cifds had to ask for silence so the players in the middle field could get the signals. Truly, the crowd was immense, and had enough ginger to satisfy the most exacting. The PI Beta Phi society of University girls were at the game In a beautifully decorated float.

All through the game they moved their ribbons of orange and white and cheered the boys to do their bet. Several vehicles occupied by others were elaborately covered with flowers and ribbons. The crowd went away more than satisfied wits, the playing of each LITTLE GIRL IS CRYING FOR HER MISSING PAPA THE AUSTIN POLICE ARE ASKED TO LOCATE A MAN WHO DISAPPEARED FROM HOME A MURDERER ALSO WANTED. Chief of Police Montgomery received two letters yesterday requesting him to assist in finding two people. One of the letters was from William R.

Hill of South Hadiey Fulls, who asks for information concerning her husband, who disappeared from home October 6. Hill was the treasurer of the'-Holyoke Street Railway company and held other Important positions. His accounts were correct in every way. At the time he left he hud a large amount of money with him, mostly one hundred dollar bills. Mrs, Hill closes her letter; "Will any one seeing Mr.

Hill or knowing where he is please notify his wife, who is nearly distracted with grief and anxiety for one she loves and also for the sake of the little daughter constantly asking for her father." The other letter is from the chief of police of Kast St. Louis, who offers a reward for the capture of Ru-tus Hell, a negro wanted tor the murder of Fred Walters, a white man. Walters was assaulted by the negro, being hit in the head with an iron hook and dying the following morning. V. O.
