SPLENDID CHURCH Tenth Anniversary of the German Evangelical. TO BE CELEBRATED TODAY. One of the holuest robberies the Democrat has been called upon to chronicle in many months was made public Friday evening, the victim being J. D. Barnes, a gardener, who resides at Eighteenth and Marvin streets.

Mr. Barnes is about 60 years old and lives alone. About lO Thursday night he was visited at his home by two iinkiiown white men, one tall and the other short, who demanded that he surrender to them all of the money on the place, under penalty of death if he refused. Fearing he would be killed if he did not do as requested, Mr. Barnes handed over to the robbers the sum of $15 that he had saved up.

and wfeich was every penny on the place, after which the thieves took their parture. Mr. Barnes did not apprise anyone until the next day of his loss, and even then he was not able to give a very accurate description of the robbers. The belief is that the thieves are I'esidenls of Sedalla, w'ho knew that Mr. Barnes lived and they decided to take the chance ot making a raise by holding him up.

Steinfeldt laid down a sacrifice, Altrock handling the assist. Tinker followed with another sacrifice, Altrock to Donohue, putting Chance on third. Three tiines outside of this during the game the Cubs got runners as far as third, a sensational catch by Hahn in the second inning saving a score then while Chance was thrown out at the plate in the ninth. The White Sox had two good chances to win or tie. In-the fifth was safe on a wild throw by SteinfeldL Donohue sacrificed him to second, and he went to third on out from Evers to Chance.

Then Brown fanned Davis. In the ninth the Sox made a last stand. McFarland batted for Altrock, but was an easy out. Hahn raised a pop to Tinker. Jones waited Brown out and walked.

He took second when Kling allowed a pitch to get away from him, and hit Isbell drove a liner right at head, and the pitcher threw his hands up to save himself. The force of the drive knocked him down, hut the hail fell with him, and he was able to recover n.m- self and throw Isbell out at first the out which ended the game. The share for the four eames of the championship will amount to was the last game the players have a Interest in. The receipts the other games will be divided be tween the National commission and the club owners. Seventy-five per cent of the amount ton, of New York city, clerk on the Adirondack, is missing.

The collision occurred in a dense fog, both pilots, it is thought, missing their bearings. Sherman, the oiler, was killed Instantly by flying timbers. Horton, on the Adirondack, is supposed to have been knocked overboard and drowned. Many passengers on the Saratoga were knockeck down by the force of the collision, but the crews of both assisted in rescuing them. Later, they were transferred to the City of Troy, which landed at Tivoli, and were thus sent to New York by rain.

The passengers on both boats became panic-stricken, and only by the coolness of the officers and crews a heavy loss of life was prevented. The Adirondack after the fog cleared away was able to proceed Albany. The Saratoga sustained the greater damage. She was towed to the dock and anchored. A number of the Saratoga passengers were hurt, but none seriously.

Officers of the Saratoga say the collision was unavoidable. Without warning, the lights suddenly loomed up in the fog and the crash followed. The staterooms on the port side of the Saratoga were crushed in. The boat swung immediately. A dozen occupants of the staterooms were thrown into the ice cold mater of the Hudson river.

These were rescued by a passing steamer. The Saratoga was built in 187T and was valued at a half million. The Adirondack was launched in 1896 anf cost one million. structure, spacious and conveniently arranged, was erected. The pastors who have preached the word of God in this building are Rev.

W. Meyer, who deserves much for his untiring zeal during the erection of the church; Rev. Fr. Pfeiffer, who was called by the Master from the church militant to the church triumphant January 28, 1905, and Rev, Otto Press, the present pastor. The program' of services will be found in the church column of Democrat.
