commencement proper was again
adopted this year and Friday in the
presence of crowded room of their
friends the Glass of 1901 showed what
manner of stuff they are made of.
The program printed below was car
ried out exactly, the class having com
plete charge of the exercises. music
and all. The room was decorated in
the class colors, pink and lavender,
the class occupying the rostrum. The
papers were short and spicy, good
many friendly digs at themselves and
the under classes being taken, con-
siderable feeling being displayed at
the severing of school ties, an abund-
ance of good advice handed down to
lower grades, several musical num-
bers we'll rendered, and the whole a
most entertaining program that seemed
too short.
The most amusing feature was the
presentation of medals and trophies,
given them last year by the gradual
ing class, to the 18th grade, There
was thorn of satire accompanying
each rose of compliment but it must
be confessed the younger folks played
even. They expressed. great awe of
the grave seniors, but insisted on Civ
ing away several .grinds which they
knew. Miss Garlinghouse's paper was
home made poetry and it was the
genuine article, full of pretty senti-
ment and cleverly written. In fact the
class of 1901 has "A right to be decided

A New Road is Needed

Besides the runaway which injured
Fred Horton Tuesday, Charlie Price
was thrown from his buggy and drag
ged some distance on the east road
the same day, He escaped with
bruises and scratches. And the regu-
larity with which such accidents of
this kind occur on that east road en-
phasizes what the REGIsRER said some
time ago of the need of new east
road that shall pass several blocks
south of the present one and thus es-

and the street car line.

How To

Persons have been known to
gain a pound a day by taking
an ounce of SCOTS EMUL-
SION. 1t is strange, but it often
happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop

to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be-

is made.

MEXICO COLONY PLAN.
Rock Island Officials Paving the Way

Seekers.

CHICAGO, Aug. PLANS are be-
ing made by the Rock Island manage

right of way of the Mexican Central

result in many seeking permanent res

The first move in this direction was
made yesterday, when the passenger

agent to the City of Mexico with n
view to engaging the attention of a
large land company and paving the
way of placing the lands in question
on the market. Some time ago Gen

POUNDS A NEW FAITH.
Church of Man." Antagonistic to
Theology, Formally Organized in
Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. with the birth
of a new church in Chicago, The
Church of Man" comes also the coin
ing of new word-manology- by
which the fathers of the new church
distinguish their religion from the
ology. Man, and not God. is the pow.
er looked to for the success of the new
church.
Its first minister. DR.. j. Barr, said
yesterday. "The Church of Man stands
for the uplifting and glorifying of
man, not of God"
The constitution and discipline of
the Church of Man will be published
in few days, and is in part as fol
lows:
"The object of this church is to
preach, teach and practice the gospel
OF manology instead of theology
Manology stands for all the interests
and rights of man. All ladies' and
gentlemen are cordially invited tn
unite and be come members of the
Church of Man and work for the up
lifting and betterment of humanity
The creed of the church contains bu,
one word-justice, This word con
tains all the principles and morals In
the golden rule. Justice can be ap
pealed to in the proper regulation OF
the human family"
The first section of the constitution
provides that the governing power OF
each congregation shall be vested In
"A board of five directors, one director
10 be minister, two to be cardinals
one to be bishop and one to be elder.
These are to be elected annually.
ANY person who believes in a per
sonal or supernatural God is barred
church" says section 4 of the con
stitution. This section also provides
that II any member of the board of
the church shall manifest a belief In a
personal or supernatural God that
member shall forfeit his position on
the board but not his membership in
the church.
given In the same section thus
This is to prevent supernaturalism
from having n voice In the government
of the church or any of its subordinate
congregations"
That the rule applies only to officers
will be seen by the following clause:
Persons. of all beliefs will be adj
mitted to membership and fellowship
in the congregation with the hope that
they may be educated out of Godology
which is the God-idea originated In
early times of heather ignorance.

FEAR FOR ST. PAuL's.
London's Famous Cathedral is lmper.
lied by Excavations for Railway.


LONDON, Aug. IA good deal of
excitement has been caused during
the past week by the rsport getting
abroad that st. Pauls cathedral is in
danger from excavations for the new
underground railway. A perfect av-
alanche of inquiries have fallen upon
the deans and conons in residence in
regard to the report. Excursionists
who are doing the cathedral grave
ly ask the vergers how long they
think the building will last
There is no doubt widespread CON
Germ about the famous old building.
There is no doubt also about the sew
eral cracks which have been appear
ing from time to time in the struc-
ture. Its great architect could hard
ly have guessed that the scale upon
which subterranean works have under
mined and changed the character of
the foundation of the cathedral.
There is generally accepted be-
lief that the foundations of the cathe-
dral rest on concrete. This Is not
the case. The cathedral rests on ma
preserve its tenacitv and firmness
There is no doubt that modern dis
turbances in the soil have tended to
drain away the desirable dampness.
AT the present moment the por-
tions of the building which give the
greatest cause for alarm are the
stately built west front where the
walls with the towers and bells are
particularly massive, and the south
transept, where the condition of one
window is certainly such as to give
cause for anxiety. Some of the win
dows below the whispering gallery
also show signs of strain. In other
parts of the building there are similar
indications.
Some idea of the incessant renova-
ton the building requires may be
guessed from the fact that the ordin-
airy staff of masons for the cathedral
number forty. They are. selected for
their skill and are constantly en-
ployed in the everyday requirements
of the building.
Whatever may be the case with st.
Paurs partial damage has already
been sustained by the historic church
of Marylebone. the beautiful tower of
which already leans tweuty-three
inches out Of the perpendicular. This
it is stated Is caused by the vibration
of the adjacent tuppenny tube. The
company has agreed to pay f1.00O
by way of compensation.
Meantime owing to the dangerous
condition of the belfrev. the famous
Bow Bells must remain silent until
the necessary underpinning opera
tions are completed.

may introduce a sbill modifying the
constitution, but all other classes OF
measures must proceed from the gov
eInmen: and the members of the lower
house. Members of the upper house
or lagthing, are not permitted to pro.
pose ordinary Legislation, on the the
ory that they should remain unprej.
udiced so as to exercise judicial
revision. Thus bills must originate
in the odelsthing. which having
passed them, m,sends them to the lag
thing for its approval.
The financial officers of the govern
ment and the directors of the ma
tional bank are elected by the stor-
thing. which appoints a committee
every six months to revise and audit
the accounts of officials who have to
do with the disbursement or collec-
ton of money. When any irregular
ity or improper expenditure of money
is discovered. the legislature Is asked
to decide whether the minister In
charge of the department shall repay
the sum from his own pocket and re-
pair the damage that has been caused
by one of his subordinates.
In the same manner the storthing
regulates all loans. on the theory that
the money belongs to the people.
The members of the ministry may be
impeached by the odelstbing for a vio-
lation of the constitution and tried be
fore the lagthing and the supreme
court.
The executive departments are:
/. For ecclesiastical matters and
public instruction, which also has
charge of charities, Insurance com
panies and matters relating to the re-
lief of the people.
2. The department of justice and
police
3. The department of agriculture.
4. The department of public works.
5. The department of finance.
G. The department of public de-
fense.
Z. The department of the interior,
which has charge of everything
that is not under the other depart
ments.
