May Reunite the Church.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-There are
outward and visible signs that the two
branches of the Presbyterian church,
north and south, which have been sep
arated since the civil war, are at last
in earnest in their endeavor to come
together again. IL is highly probable
that conferences now in progress be-
tween representatives of the two or
CARNATIONS will result in definite and
decisive steps towards a reunion be-
ing taken at the May general assem-
blies Of the two bodies. The joint
committee of the two churches is now
at work on a plan of reconciliation
which it is confidently hoped, will be
acceptable to both. Union will place
the church among the most powerful
in the country, both numerically and
financially. North and south the de-

icants, with church property valued at

Consul-General Gowdy, in his annual
report, states that during the past year
there has been marked increase in
the adoption of automobiles, not only
as pleasure vehicles owned by private
individuals, but in the way of cabs
serving the public for hire and :or
business purposes in the way of de-
livery wagons, especially those for long
distances. 1t is announced that at the
beginning of the next year there are
to be 100 motor cabs driven by cleo
trical power running in the streets of
Paris, and If the experiment is success
full the cabs will be increased to 1000.
With this project in view a large plot
of ground has been acquired, where
the building of works necessary for
the housing of cabs and machinery
for electrical supply is being rapidly
completed. We have already referred
to the training ground for cabmen. The
automobiles which use petroleum prod
ucts are objected to by the public by
reason of their odor. noise and vibra-
ton.

SALVATION ARMY FARMS.
Commander Booth-Tucser Tells OF the
Good Work Done.

New York, Feb. 1i.-Ccmmander
Booth-Tucker of the Salvation Army
reports that the past year on the col
ony farms Of the army has been .
prosperous one, and that the results
thus far of the project OF making poor
people self-suppor5ing by transplant
ing them to the country have been all
that was hoped for The beneiciaries
OF the plan take kindly to it, and the
work Is to be extended. To date the
army has colony farms in Ohio, Colo
RADIO and California, covering 1,42S
acres. and valued now at $111 900. They
are tenanted by 200 colonists, and 1t
is hoped to increase this number to
500 during this year The largest and
most ambitious of the colonies is To-
Gated at Fort Amity, Colo. There set
tiers from the slum districts OF east
ern cities have $40 acres Of rich land,
which they are endeavoring to turn
into ten-acre farms. Chicago and New
Your furnished the emigrants, major
ity OF whom had had experience in
some sort of farming, while num-
Der we're carpenters and mechanics.
The ground was divided into ten-acre
lots, of which each alternate lot was
cultivated, but left unoccupied, with n
view to the extension of each holding
should ten acres be insufficient, or a
relative of colonist desire to settle
on the next farm. The plan adopted
to make the colony self-supporting
differs from that of most settlements
in that it involves less OF the coopera-
tive plan. Each colonist is master OF
his own domain of ten acres. for which
he pays a weekly rental Of from 81 to
SO for ten years, when he will own
the land and house. Truck farmin g
will be the main support Of the colony.
The land, however, is surrounded by
thousands of acres Of open prairie,
which. for a time at least, will fur
nish free pasturage for stock.

RIGHTS OF PEW-HOLDERs.
Are sittings to lie Considered as Per-
sonal or Real Estate2

Some interesting points regarding
the rights of pewholders have been
brought up in Boston in connection
with the question as to whether a deed
for a church pew must bear an inter-
nal revenue stamp. In some states
pews in churches are declared by stat
ute to be real estate, and in other
states personal estate. In Boston pews
have always been considered to be
personal estate, and pews in churches
of public worship throughout Massa-
chusetts are made personal property
by statute. There Is a close analogy
between a pew-right and the right Of
burial in a public burying ground or
cemetery" says Acting Commissioner
Wilson of the internal revenue bureau,
"and the interest which n pew-holder
has in his pew is held by English
courts to be of an incorporeal nature
only. 1t is in the nature of an ease
ment. and the holder of the pew or
seat is not deemed the owner of so
much of the site OF the church as is
comprised within the area of such pew
or seat II has been held that a pew
holders right is only right to occu-
by his pew during public worship"
This view of the question regards pews
as personal property, and, therefore,
documents for their conveyance are not
required to pay the war tax.
