It appears to be inevitable that the
finance committee shall recommend to

the refund proposition be again sub

1t seems quite likely that the Pres
byterian church. North. will be called
upon again to consider revision of
the Westminster confession OF faith.
From various parts OF the country
come statements made by Presbyter-
ian clergymen advocating revision or
a new creed. The venerable DR.. Theo-
dore L. Cnyler of New York. who has
been considered q conservative. is one
of the latest TO declare that there are
certain parts of the confession in
which he does not believe. Notable
among the overtures from presby-
teries asking for revision Is petit

Heavy feeders on animal food are
predisposed to all kinds Of infiamma-
tory disorders. and when any such
person finds himself getting out OF
condition he may safely hedge in the
matter Of flesh food, cutting down the
amount OF such food or omitting 1t
altogether with perfect safety. A
strict vegetarian diet, even, cannot be
called an experiment. since we know
that millions Of people thrive on it.
and no one could ever starve on it.
With fruit. nuts. milk and eggs added,
no lack OF variety need be felt. The
Japanese are a healthy. handsome
race. They are plump and hearty, but
little beyond simple vegetarian die: is
the rule there. The rikisha men walk
and trot forty miles a day with a

Not the least alarming phase Of the
situation in South Africa is the fact
that the black natives out-number the
whites in the proportion OF twelve to
one. In the case of prolonged con-
f1ict between the Beers and the Eng
lish the attitude OF the natives Is al
together uncertain In Cape Colony
there are 100000 white residents and
four times that number OF blacks. The
white population OF the Transvaal is
estimated at ESQ. 600. as compared with
$4,000 natives. In Natal the total
number of whites is not more than
10000, while the blacks number $780,
900. In the Orange Free States the
blacks outnumber the whites in the
proportion of nearly three to one In
Rhodesia there are 1000. 900 natives
and a white population which rela-
lively amounts to nothing. In British
Central Africa $4,000 blacks are op-
posed to tiny band OF not more than
500 English soldiers. In fact, all
through South Africa the negro prob
lem is likely to grow in Importance
during the continuance Of hostilities.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Commander
Hemphlll, head of the Naval Board which
conducted the trial of the torpedo-bo2t
Stockton yesterday. has telegraphe,i the
Navy Department from Annapolis the fol-
lowing report Of the results OF the trial:
The Stockton made her approximate
% 81 knots fer two consecutive hours
Nesseis displacement at time of trial
about 200 tons. Performance of machinery
generally satisfactory. Starboard enginz
counters broke down forty minutes after
trial began. Speed was computed from
the readings of the port counter as
checked by the spsed over the measured
miie course. Stockton sailed for Ric.-
mond- Contractor reserves all rights
pending conference with the Department .
The Stockton, under the terms of the
contract, was TO show a minimum speed
of 26 knots. In case of deficiency she may
be rejected, or deduction may be made
by the Government from the contract
price.
1t is believed the Board will recommend
that the Navy Department accept the
boat on yesterdays record, for it is i'm
probable that the contractors will care to
go to the expense Of making another trial.
The torpedo-boat Stockton arrived here
at o'clock last night, having made her
trial run at Annapolis.
When seen last night in reference to the
report, the contractors said that the re-
quired displacement of the vessel was
from 1Io to $50 tons, and that if the differ
ence between the required displacement
and that displayed by the vessel were de-
Quoted. the difference in speed would
more than overcome the small shortage
in the number OF knots made in the tria!
