as well as those from the smaller cities
of the state, will share with the ST. Paul

The picturesque side Of the three famous

Gen. Miles in an article contributed by
him to this weeks Golfers. Gen. Miles

also the faculty Of presenting his subject
in a popular and brilliant style.

worthy of a diplomacy as old as that of

fective as an argument, for instance,
than the following:
"China is ripe for the change of tide

hand that the foreign powers seriously

THE conquest and division of China
would be possible with 100. 900 troops, but
to retain and govern would require 1000

task would end with the most unhappy

1t was unanimously decided that the
memorial should take the form of per-

annual income of which should be devot-
ea 10 the living expenses of Seabury Di-

OF Bishop Giibert's earthly life were

tInuance of the life and usefulness of
Seabury depends upon it's income. With
one exception Seabury's income is from
special endowments, /. e., for the support
OF certain professorships or scholarships.
The greatest need of the school today
IS money to meet it's daily expenses. 1t
was during his visit to the East to secure
funds to meet the daily living expenses
OF OF Seabury that Bishop Gilbert contracted
the cold which caused his death.

ship on the board, making in all thirty
members. Formerly there were but

Cured at the meeting of the former Mon
day night in regard to the space that is
to be occupied in the new library build
ing by the school. The members later Wis
tied the new building in a body, accom-
panied by Harris Richardson, NJ. D.

board, AS it was suggested at the library
board meeting Monday night that the at
