She Is Not Doing Her Duty ia Bertng


WASHINGTON, D. c., April s.-The
President has decided to appoint special
commission with pIenipotentiary powers
to negotiate another agreement with
Great Britain for the better protection of
seal life in Bering Sea. Negotiations with
two foreign Governments have been in
progress for some time. Mckinley has
already selected the representatives of the
United States. They are John w. Foster,
ex-Secretary oi State, and Charles s. Ham
lin of Massachusetts,, who surrendered his
position as Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury on Tuesday. Both of these en-
tlemen are familiar with the question in
volved. General Foster was agent for the
United States in the business connected
with the Paris tribunal of arbitration
which rendered the decision against this
Government and assessed damages against
US. Hamlin has handled all Bering Sea
matters under the Treasury Department
for the last four years. He made trip to
the seal islands to make himself more ia
miiiar with The condition of affairs there
The purpose OF the Governments OF
Great Britain and the United States in ap-
pointing a commission is to devise more
III W pTOltCt seal llle ana 10
provide for the better enforcement of the
law than now exists. This Government
took the initiative in the matter.
Ever since the regulations prescribed by
both countries in accordance with the de-
cision of the Paris tribunal went into effect
the British Government has not acted it's
part to the satisfaction of the United
States.
The regulations prescribe that vessels
found in the close season in the for bid den
zones with arms and ammunition on board
shall be seized and sent to the nearest port
of the country concerned with prize
crew in charge. Suspicious British ves-
sells overhauled by the British patrol have
been merely warned, while the officers of
the United States vessels have endeavored
to carry out their instructions to the let
ter. Another point OF objection to the
manner in which the British have acted is
that her Majesty's patrol has never con-
sisted of more than three ships and some
times only one has been assigned to that
duty.
On the other hand this Government has
maintained big fleet in Bering Sea every
year. How soon the commission will
meet cannot be ascertained. Both Foster
and Hamlin are in town, but neither will
talk of the matter.

NEW RECEPTION RULES.
Comm on-Sense Methods to BE Insttt,ste,
at the Hhite House.


WASHINGTON, D. c., April S.-When
the President and Secretary Porter return
and business at the White House is re-
sumed it is likely that new code of rules
will be posted conspicuously about the
executive mansion and uptown hotels.
All the principal hotels are now supplied
with card on which are printed rules
governing the reception of the public at
the White House. The new rules under
contem plation will probably limit the re-
ception of the public to one hour on Sat
urday afternoons. Three public recep-
tions are now held weekly, but there is q
disposition on the part of the President to
do away with two of these. Another rule
which will probably be posted will restrict
visits from Senators and Representatives
to morning hours. thereby giving the
President afternoons to attend to business
OF state.

He Wouid Not nsnx Il.

A federal judge lately charged a jury
in a liquor case as follows: "In later
years there seems to have been q dis
position to deny or ignore judicial
knowledge as to what constitutes in
toxicating liquors. and the courts have
manifested a desire to disavow any ju-
dioial knowledge on this subject. At
the same time some Of the courts have
not hesitated to impute to juries an ex-
tensive knowledge and information in
this regard. This court, however, will
follow the precedent established by the
decision of Chancellor Walworth upon
this subject and will assume judicial
knowledge concerning Intoxicating
liquors. In a trial in the state of Wis
consin. where this question arose in
1883, the trial judge declared that a
man must be a driveling idiot who did
not know what beer was, and that it
was not necessary to prove 1t to be an
Intoxicating liquor.
Later the supreme court Of that
state, in passing on the charge Of the
trial judge, declared that his rulings
in the case upon this question were not
only clearly correct, but il his peculiar
manner gave them force and emphasis
it was not only proper. but commend
able. This court, therefore, will neither
stultify itself nor impeach its Owl We.
racity by telling you that it has not ju'
dicial knowledge that the liquor com
monty known as whisky is an intoxi'
eating liquor or that the drink com
monty called a whisky cocktail is ar

Wesley and Methody.

Louis XIV's famous saying, II am
the state" is not far from being appli-
cable to Wesley, however he would
have revolted from saying, II am the
church." But unquestionably the pro-
longation of his life as both the apostle
and lawgiver Of his church throughout
the whole Of its adolescent and forma-
tive period, during which it was plastic
to his organizing and guiding hand, Sc
cured to it both its stable basis and its
symmetrical development. ASS preach
or second only to that incompatible
Whitefield whom a skeptio like Hume
said he would 60 30 miles to hear; as a
hymnist second only to his peerless
brother Charles, who has given 627
hymns to the Methodist hymn book, he
was pre-eminent in fitness for patri-
archal administration and government.
No man has come SO near the position
of a Protestant pope. In Great Britain
his sole judgment suf1ced to exclude
any member or minister deemed un-
worthy.
In America. In 1910, the deed of the
old John Street church, the first Meth.
odist church in America, restricted its
use to such persons as Wesley should
appoint. This autocratic constitution
was but a natural incident Of the period
of tutelage through which scattered So
~cieties, mainly composed OF the humber
sort Of people, with their visible bond
chiefly in the person of their beloved
founder and father. grew at length into
a fully organized church in the form Of

Small Items of Knowledge.

1t is n great satisfaction for IA man
who possesses learning and a large
amount of general information to have
osity Is largely developed, because then
the learned father has a neyer-ceasing
opportunity to show off his knowledge.
The Washington Star tells of such n
gentleman-a man of science connected
with the Smithsonian Instituti0n-and
his household.
This scientific gentleman was going
out of his house in Il hurry one day,
and had his Oyercoat on and his hand
on the door-knob, when II of his boys
hailed him:
"Father! Before you go will you
please tell me something's
II haven't time now"
'Oh. it's only a little thing"
won't it wait until 1 get homer

"Try to remember it-that would be
good practice. Good-by."
"But it won't take but a minute"
"Are you sure!
"Of course"
"Well go ahead. What is itT"
"All l wanted to know is, How do
they work miracles, and how do they
make condensed milk"
And the small boy thought it was In
kind because his father insisted upon
postponing the answers until his re-
turn.
