ST. LOUIS NAVAL RESERVES.
Adjutant General Bell Says They
Must Become n Part of the
Stnte Guurd.

st. Louis, March 3.-Lieutenant Com
mander T.. II. Hunicke and party OF
gentlemen interested in the st. Louis naval
militia will go to Washington next week
for a conference with the heads of the
navy department regarding the equipment
of the battalion OF reserves recently formed
here.
AS matters now stand. further progress
In organizing the naval reserves Is blocked
by a clash between the state and national
government. Adjutant General Bell declares
that the reserves cannot bear arms without
becoming a part OF the Missouri state
guard. It is Assistant Secretary OF the
Navy Roosevelts idea to detach the naval
battaliOns from state control and place
them upon a national basis. The forma-
ton OF the St. Louis reserves was the first
to occur under his administration, and the
assistant secretary attempted to put his
scheme In motion by nadonallzing Captain
Hunicke's body. General Bell filed a vigor-
ous protest. citing the law and ordering the
arms returned to Washington which Mr..
Roosevelt had started toward st. Louis.
Until the reserves are mustered into the
states SERVICE General Bell declared, they
cannot bear arms. This Is said to have
been explained to Secretary Roosevelt and
that official has permitted the subject to
drop. A bill Is being framed for introduc-
tion into congress providing for the detach-
ment OF all naval battalons from the state
militia

Iightened people is fixed upon our own
The crisis which our national government

aid that government by approval and sup
port: to sustain its hand when raised for
Justice and fair play, Is the duty of every
state, No hour has ever been so full Of
peril that New York has falterec while 1t
passed. Because OF her past history and
her present greatness. she should be the
first to understand the meaning OF to-day.
After long reflection and with an earnest
desire to do that which ought to be done.
and to refrain from that which ought not
to be done, recommend that. before you
adjourn, you take such action as desirable
to provide against such urgent needs as
the future may disclose I hope the day is
still remote which shall consume the means
YOU set apart. But IL the time should come
when forbearance and national self-respect
can no longer stay together, there can be
but ono answer to the duty thus arising.
I believe you WILL not in haste or IN anger
toward any other people. but In the deliber-
ate purpose to defend your own. and as
sign of hope to the struggling and Distress
ed. realizing that patriotism without prep
aration is as fragile as dream. SO act that
the enlightened sentiment of the world will
justify you.''

which was passed by unanimous vote.
The bill was engrossed and sent to the gov
ernor, who signed 1t as soon as 1t reached

WHEN YOU GET MARRIED.
Marketing Is One Of the Things
You May Have to Do.

Best Told in His own
Words.

"If you would just get over your
foolish pride about carrying bundles
1t would save us n good deal that we
now spend for eXpressage," said Mrs.
Tompkins to her husband at the break
fast table one Saturday morning. "Pm
sure that see other men carrying
bundles--lots of them. And here you
go right by the markets, and it wouldn't
be any trouble at all for you to run in
and get some things. Mr.. Jones and
Mr.. Smyth and others do it and it would
save us ever so much"
Tompkins, who is suburbanite, hap
pened to be in saving mood that
morning, says the Detroit Free Press,
and he surprised his wife by saying:
II don't know but you're right, my
dear, and I'll try it. AS you say, come
right by the markets on my way to the
train, and we've simply got to cut down
our expenses in some direction. Make
out list of things you want to-day
and I'll bring them home with me-"
1t was good deal beyond his usual
time when Tompkins came home that
evening, His wife had been welded to
him long enough to know that her
liege lord was, to put it mildly, mad,
before he opened his mouth, but she
said cheerily:
you're late, my dear"
"Late!" he burst forth. "It's won

We are not altogether unconscious OF
the perils OF every day. we pause amid
its hurry and noise, sometimes long
enough TO wonder that we live, when
there are so many ways to die.
Modern invention, while it devises a
way TO save us time and labor, multi
plies at the same time these perils, fills
the hospitals with It's victims and puts
new weapon in the hands Of death,
A workman who safely threads his
way through maze of whrling ma

Of the result; the business man who
has stepped from the moving trolley
car more times than he could count is
hurled into the gutter unconscious and
dying, or may step too late. trip and
fall before it some day, to be crushed
in an instant
Even though reasonable amount of
caution be always observed, the condi-
tons Of industry would still expose the
worker to constant risk, The sailor
slips from the rigging, the carpenter
and the painter fall from their insecure
positions, the trainman jumps too late,
falling mass Of coal buries the miner
and quarryman is smashed under de-
scendlng rock,
Such cases might be recounted by
thousands. Few people can look back
without recalling some narrow escape
from death; danger Turks in whatever
path we may choose; yet the fact cam
not shape our feeling of security.
If every person by thoughtfully con-
sidering his own peculiar dangers
would more fully realize the perils that
come each day many might be avoided.
In the kitchen a careless movement
may bring woeful consequences.
Any doctor could give a score Of in
stances-a face disngured by painful
burns, hand badly cut, helpless Grip

lifted once too often.
Careless mothers are many times re-

their accompanying perils, and we can
afford to do nothing heedlesslt.

Children's answers are always a
fruitful source of amusement. A girl
Is or 16 years old, who had received
what was supposed to be good educa-
ton, was describing to me her recent
visit to the Tower Of London. Among
the many wonders she had seen was a
sword given to Henry VIII. by Max
Muller, an amusing though not alto
gether unnatural substitute for The
Emperor Macmillan. If children are
allowed to think for themselves their
answers are amusingly original. What
do you think makes the sea salt?" was a
question put to national school class.
A brilliant idea struck the boy. "Please,
sir. the 'errings." 1t makes one thirsty
to even think of the sadness of the
bloaters with which that boy was ac-
quainted.-Cornhill Magazine.
