Why the South Has to Borrow Money.

Of the So, 156,O53 of life insurance pre-
miums paid by Virginians last year, 81
1921 ,024 went into other States to enrich
the stranger. and $SS5,O29 was put into
Southern companies. Comment is unnec-
essary. We cannot continue to do this,
and hope to compete with our rivals in
commerce.
1t is said that $4O,OOO,OOO of insurance
premiums go into Hartford, Conn.,, each
year, and money can be borrowed there
for about 3 per cent. If the millions paid
by Virginians that go to other States were
kept at home, and millions were brought
here in premiums from other States, the
rate of interest could be obtained here as
in Competent.
The South-Atlantic Life Insurance Com
pany of Richmond, Va, proposes to do IT'D

CREED REVISION is RECOMMENDED.
Presbyterian Committee Concluded Its
Discussion Yesterday and Adjourned.

Washington, Dec. S.-After two hours'
delberation today the Presbyterian Com
mittee concluded its discussion of the re-
vision of the Westminster Confession of
Faith and adjourned.
The committee find on examination Of
the returns from the Presbyteres the fol-
lowing facts:
One-That the returns plainly indicate
that the Church desires some changes in
its credal statement.
Two-These returns indicate plainly
that no change is desired which would in
any way impair the integrity Of the sys-
tenn of doctrine contained in the Comics.
sion of Faith.
Thrte-These returns also indicate that
a large plurality desire that changes should
be made by some new statement of pres
ent doctrines.
Fourth-The returns also indicate de-
sire upon the part of many Presbyteries
for some revision Of the present confts-
sion.
Fifh-It Was, therefore, unanimously
agreed by the committee to recommend
10 the General Assembly that some re-
vision or change be made in our confes-
sional statements.
The committee will convene in this city
on February 10Th next, to finally prepare
the statement to the General Assembly in
| May.

TO A LIVING TOMB.
For Woman's Sake, And She The Guilty
Mans Wife at That.

London, December ll.-Chvalry is not
dead. A man has just been released from
prison who performed as rare an act of de-
votion TO the woman he loved as any that
ever made the names of the Cid, Chega-
ler Bayard or Sir Philip Sidney famous.
David Rutter is the name of this hero,
and his story is as redolent of romance as
tale from the Heptameron. David Rut'
ter loved a woman, loved her as Abelard
loved Heloise, as Cyrano de Bergerac
loved Roxane. She was wife and a
mother, and her honor was as sacred to
him as that of Catherine de Medici was to
the unfortunate Vidame de Charities.
This womans husband killed a man.
Suspicion fell upon Rutter. He knew who
was guilty, but rather than give to the wo-
man he loved the pain of knowing her
husband a murderer, rather than leave
her and her children without the support
of their husband and father, he took upon
himself the guilt. Not even when he was
condemned to death did he breathe a
word of what he knew. He was happy to
suffer in silence that his love might be
happy.
His sentence was committed to imprls'
onment for life, and he toiied for twenty
seven years in the misery of Ipswich jail
until the other day, when, learning that
she, for whom he suffered, and he for
whose guilt he was punished, were dead
and beyond reach of harm, he made
known the truth.
An investigation substantiated his state
ment, and the Queen pardOned him.
For David Rutter the poet laureate has
made no epic, but he is as true knight as
ever couched lance for fair woman.

COMMON CACTUS.
q Sealed Glass Case I'm
berlin.

One of the commonest of cacti in
gardens is the Echinopsis multiplex,
a small subglobular species, with five
or six sharp ribs and sparsely sprin-
killed. with few clusters of long, black
spines on the sharp edges of the ribs.
1t sends up occasionally large, white
tubular flower, which, like so many
of the family, opens at night and soon
withers away. IN Germany druggist
named Ludwig Rust placed a speei-
men under a sealed glass seven years
ago, and it is said to be yet in a
thriving condition." to the surprise
of the scientific men of Berlin, who
are puzzled to know where it obtains
it's carbonic acid from. Many sugges-
tons are advanced as to the source
of this element. So far as the pub
lished account goes, however, there
is no indication that the specimen was
weighed before it was encased or
weighed after its seven years of en-
tombment--no evidence, it may be
said, that any carbonic acid was abb
sorbed. 1t is just as likely to be
case of dormancy. 1t is now well I'M
derstood that in the absence of ex-
citing causes dormancy in vegetation
may be retained indefinitely.

SOME WASHINGTON CLOCKS.
A Few Are Interesting, But None So
Famous as Some in the
Old World.

There are 600 clocks in the treas
ury department, and a man named
Fleming is paid $45 month for wind.
ing them and keeping them in repair.
This duty is let annually TO the low.
est bidder, and the cost has been re-
duced from SIS to $45 a month by
rivalry between Mr.. Fleming and an
other clockmaker who secured the job
for two or three years througi polit-
zeal influence during the last Cleye-
land administration, says the Chicago
Record
Mr.. Fleming had looked after the
clocks in the treasury at a salary OF
SIS month as long as anyboay could
remember until he considered that
privilege a vested right, and when it
was taken away from him by aecre
tary Carlisle he was very unoasr, and
finally underbid his rival and offered
to do it for $50 a month. The con -ract
was given him, and the next year the
other man underbid him ard 81, the
job for $50 a month. Next time iem-
ing came in with an offer Of SIS a
month, which was really lower than
anybody could afford to make. be-
cause it requires nearly all his time
to perform the duties, particularly as
many of the clocks are getting old
and constantly need repairs. In the
other departments the messengers of
the different bureaus look after the
clocks, except the large ones that are
connected by wire with the naval OBJ
servatory and accurately mark the
sun time.
The clocks at the white house are
looked after by one of the loca. Jewell
ry merchants who sends a man every
week to wind them and see that they
are in order. 1t is curious fact that
only one of the 25 or 30 clocks in the
white house is of American manufac-
ture, and that is big gilt affair
which stands on the mantcl in the
green room and was purchased while
James Monroe was president.
The most interesting clock in the
white house is in the blue parior. 1t
was made of alabaster and French
gilt bronze for Napoleon Bonaparte
and was presented to Gen. Washing
ton by Marquis de Lafayette. II still
keeps excellent time and runs for
month without winding.
In Mrs. McKinley's sitting-room is
O. French clock which has been run
ming without repair for over IS years.
1t was purchased during the Lincoln
administration.
We. have no famous clocks in the
United States like old TON" in the
tower of the British house of parlia
ment or that in the spire of the cathe-
dral at Strasburg or the one in st.
Petersburg, which is the most Won
derful in the world. 1t has 95 faces
and indicates the time of day at 30
different spots on the earths surface
besides the movements of the earth
and moon, the signs of the zodiac, the
location of the principal plarets and
the date, according to the Gregorian,
Greek, Moslem and Hebrew calendars.
At Moscow there is a clock made
for the empress of Russia in 1924,
upon the reverse of which is a repre-
sentation of the Holy Sepulchre. At
certain hour of the day an angel
appears, rolls away the stone, on i'm
age of the Saviour steps ont, and
music box plays the Easter hymns of
the Russian church.
