No High church for scripps.

Detroit, Mich, Dec Thames E.
Scripps, who built Trinity Reformed
Episcopal Church, handsome stone
structure, adjoining his home, at cost
of about $4,000, and who delivered it
to the Episcopal charge of Bishop Da-
vies, of the diocese of Michigan, about
three years ago, some time ago wrote
n letter to the wardens and vestrymen
asking them to return the property to
him. This request has not been COM
piled with, and he has instructed his
attorney to prepare bill in equity to
ask the courts to compel the wardens
AMI vestrymen to turn the property
over to him. Mr.. Scripps claims that
the church was built and delivered to
the society with the understanding
that no high CHURCH services should be
held therein.
This understanding. Mr.. Scripps
says, has been violated, and he has
withdrawn from the church in conse-
quence. He demands the return of
the property in order that the service
for which 1t was designed may be held
there.
Rev. Walter Hughson the rector, is
now considering calls from Sandusky,
Ohio, and Morganton, North Carolina,
as result of differences with Mr..
ScrippS.

COLORADO STATE
TEACHERS ASSOCIATION

Denver, 1olo Dec 17.-The Colorado
Teachers Association will hold its
twenty-sixth annual session at the
East Denver High School, beginning
the day after Christmas and continu-
ing for three days, or until the after
noon of December 2Sth. Members of
the association may take advantage of
an extension Of the regular holiday
rates of the railways. of one fare for
the round trip from all points in the
state. To take advantage of this,
however, they must present certificates
of membership to the ticket agent at
the point where the ticket is bought.
The official program outlines work
which will keep every member occu-
pied during the three days. The asso-
citation is divided into sections of psy-
cho-manual child study. college and
high school. kindergarten, science. su-
perintendents and principals round ta-
BILE and county superintendents, and
each of these sections will hold separ-
ate conferences and meetings, all unit
ing, however in general discussions of
educational matters of universal inter-
est once n day.
The St James hotel has been selected
as the official headquarters of the as
sociation and special rates to members
have been arranged for at this and 9TH
er hotels. Although the price of MEM
bership in the association is only 81,
there have in previous years been some
persons who faithfully attended all the
meetings without being members of
the association. 1t was decided last
year that hereafter there should be Of
fetal doorkeepers, and that visitors not
bearing the badge of the association
should be excluded.
Tickets will be procurable free Of
cost by those who wish to attend any
single session of the association or any
of its sections.
The association numbers among its
members every prominent educator In
every high school and college in the
state. besides Il large number of the
county superintendents and leading
teachers in normal, grade and kinder
garten work. Indications are that the
attendance this year will be large and
that the discussions will be very inter
csting, the leading pedagogical experts
of this region taking part in them.

CONGRESSMAN BELLS
IRRIG ALTON BILL

Washington. d. c., Dec. IA new
plan for federal aid to reclamation OF
western arid lands is proposed by Rep
resentative Bell in bill introduced by
him providing for diversion of the
Gunnison and Grand rivers into the
Uncompahgre and Grand river valleys
in Colorado
s1r. Bells measure has been framed
In accordance with views held by the
leading officials OF the United States
geological survey. by whom it is pro-
nounced feasible and practicable. The
bill directs the geological survey to
make surveys of the Gunnison and
Grand rivers, make maps and esti-
mates of the lands that can be advan-
tageously irrigated at $50 per acre
and sell water rights at $40 per acre,
payable at the rate of 81 per annum
upon the land until paid. 1t directs
the leasing power on the canals to cleo
trio and other mechanical plants using
water, without impairing its value for
irrigation purposes and formulating
regulations as to repairs and mainte-
nance. The assessments for the cost
thereof are not to exceed the usual
charges for like repairs by private
owners.
Mr.. Bell says Of his plan of reclama-
so far introduced, as it provides for the
sale of lands and water rights so as to
reimburse the government, and remove
the most stubborn objection heretofore
raised against government reclamation.

It's rank nonsense to presume that
man can't love woman just as
well If she is the daughter of mil
lionaire as IL she were only sales
woman, and just as silly. too, to think
a woman can't be as devoted to man
with title as to one who is motor
man, for instance. It's all in the man
ana It's all in the woman. There's
Just as much so-called love among til
ties and dollars as there is among the
roses. and the chances are as good for
permanent happiness in one case as in
the other. All Of which is apropos of
the wedding OF Miss Zimmerman with

A recommendation OF the recent Par
Is conference on international copy
right is that no modification of an au-
thor's work shall be made without his
consent. Is not this principle morally
binding after an authors death? The
rapid multiplication of UNCONVENTIONAL
hymn-books has led compilers so ma
terially to alter the verses used that
they often express opposite tenets from
those the author held. 1t is a serious
offense to attach an authors name to
hymn so altered.

the album pages so as to include

added an estimate of the total OF re-

Henry Hagemeister. treasurer of the

A RIDICULOUS SfIPwfeCk

The shipping community of Kingston
is divided between amusement and dis
gust over a shipwreck which has Just
happened here, says the Jamaica cor
respondent OF the Chicago Record. y
few days ago an Italian brig named the
Fabio, bound from Genoa 10 Pensaco-
la, ran aground on the Palisadoes. the
narrow sand spit which forms the
brcakwater OF Kingston harbOr. The
weather was perfectly calm AT the
time The vessel drifted around for
lack of wind few minutes after the
anchor had been weighed with the
object OF making Kingston harbor.
The Italian captain and his crew
made absolutely no effort ~ save the
ship, though the sea was as calm as
mill pond. anC by heaving On n kedge
anchor they could have lifted her over
the reef. They at once deserted the
ship rowing ashore with the Jamaican
pilot who was aboard. The vessel Is
now total wreck but ne crew are en-
joying a. fine holiday in Kingston quite
happy in the conviction that they did
enough for honor.

OF the senate for the benefit of English
readers 1t has reached the conclusion
with the most benevolent possible mo-
tlVes towards America that the treaty
cannot be abolished by being described
as inconvenient out of date and that
the only practicable method of settling
the Nexatious canal question is that of
arranging some kind of compensation fo-
the abrogation of the treaty Of 1892 The
Alaskan boundary question is named as
quld pro quo and the foreign office was
urged to take up this method of adjust
ing issues with the United States This
suggestion is made by the friendliest
English journals. This was considered a
great gain for the American government
before Premier Laurier stepped aside
and allowed the question to be adjusted
between washington ana London With
out interference from Ottawa. The best
thing that the friendliest critics now
have to offer is an omnibus settlement in
which the abrogation of the treaty of
1850 is the single entry. with ample Off
sets to balance the account. The STAN
dard in referring to the Nicaragua canal
question, thinks it would be a pity if the
good understanding between England

suits from it; and a soldier who has
suffered heat stroke is, if attacked by
malaria or dysentery, just as likely to
have his balance disturbed. These things
act both ways"
DR.. William D. Mccarthy. of board Of
health, who went to the Philippines as
the chief surgeon of the First California
volunteers, and spent nineteen months in
the service there, says:
''The heat stroke, more frequently
than anything else, causes the insanity
of our soldiers there. The great humdi-
ty, the vertical rays of the sun bea ting
down on the head and spine prostrates
men on the march and in the rrencnes

from twenty to thirty and forty men a
day carried in from the trenches, over
come by the heat, purple in the face,
swollen and gasping. Malaria deranges
the system and has it's effect in produc-
ing insanity, as well as the heat and
humidity. and SO do dysentery and the
other wasting diseases of the tropics
but apart from tropical climate and trop-
ieal diseases the very nature of the war;
tare there is enough to break down the
nervous system of the soldier. The con-
stant anxiety. the bush fighting the r-
regularity and privations of the life, the
diet, the fighting and lying in muddy
trenches in soaking clothes and the nos
talgia that results from being so far
from home and familiar life with moth
ing to ameliorate the hard conditions all
have their share in disturbing the mental
equilibrium of the soldier"
Assistant Surgeon William Alden, who
is in charge of the ward for the insane
of the Z. S. A. general hospital at the
Presidio. has had ample opportunity to
study the insanity that is caused by
campaigning in the Philippines, for the
