When they have all said to you your
sewing machine can't be fixed or any
part about it, just leave it at the "Fix
1t" shop, and if l don't put it in good
shape. Well, what then? Well, you
can cut off the sign, see. My plan is to
do good, neat work and guarantee
everything. Dig up all your stuff
that wants fixing, bring it in and
don't say, well, he doesn't fix this or
that and it wouldn't pay If he did.
Remember, l fix everything and do it
reasonably and good.

Annual Report of Board and of Seer
tary Read and Adopted.
Des Moines, June Yesterday was
church extension day in the general
synod of the Evangelical Lutheran
church. The annual report was READ
by Rev. H. H. Weber of York, Pa, and
was adopted The report of the statis-
teal secretary was read and adopted.
The discussion of the foreign mis-
sion situation, with plans to change
the field of work from the African
coast to the interior, is set as special
business for this afternoon. The main
business of the synod deals with this
question, factions being formed and
divided on the administration of the
post, one faction claiming a favor
itism and partiality of the foreign mis-
sion board in the post, asserting that
unless a change is had at once the
church will be shaken to it's foundation
and that serious trouble is Imminent
The election of DR.. Freas as president,
however, shows the old admin 1Iation
has a majority of the synod and nc
change may be made.

it is said to be more deadly in it's char
acter than lyddite, yet so safely can
it be handled that the danger attaching
to it's use is less than that incurred in
transporting ordinary black powder.
In an interview. Mr.. Maxim said:
"Should the United States become In
volved in war with any other power
we will be able to throw high eXplo-
sive projectiles through the thickest
armor of our enemies to explode In
side their warships, while they in turn
would be able only to penetrate our
armor with solid shot.
He thought the moral of these new
developments is that the penderous
battleship must go and be replaced by
the small, swift torpedo boats or tor.

The Rehearsed Wedding

The wedding was, upon the whole,
an artistic success. The bride particu-
larly evinced unmstakable talent. She
trembled with all the technical accu-
racy of an aspen leaf and the emo
tional intensity of startled fawn. Her
trembling indeed was rreproachable.
Ii she cast down her eyes with some
thing of amateurish gawkiness, the
fact is easily attributable to her mex
perience, this being her first wedding,
rather than to an essentially defective
method. She was fairly well support
ed.
The bridegroom rose from his knees
too soon and had to be knocked down

yesterday at the instigation of the at
torney general and taken before the
