Duties Paid by Importers Of Porto
Rican Products.
New York, May 29.-The amount of
money paid in duties by importers of
Porto Rican products which will have
to be refunded by the government un-
der the decision in the Porto Rican
cases arising before the Foraker law
is comparatively trivial, and, the For
aker law being pronounced valid, no
changes are caused in current bust
ness operations with Porto Rico. Audi
tor Knapp of the customs house said
that the total Porto Rican duties that
had been collected at this port so far
were $430,000, of which about $4,000
had been collected on sugar. OF these
some have. been collected under the
Foraker law.

Bow Murdered by Burglars.

San Francisco, May 28.-Robert
Hislop, 12-year-old boy, was bru-
tally murdered by burglars at his
fathers home on Haight street. He
was alone in the house and in bed, and
the burglars, fearing, presumably, that
be would raise an outcry, repeatedly
struck him over the head with a blunt
instrument, crushing his skull. They
then ransacked the house and made
their escape, securing little OF value.

BRoDRIcK NOT POPULAR.
Said Thousand British Officers Have
rendered RESERVATIONS.

New York, May 2S.-There is no
doubt, the London correspondent of
The Herald thinks, that Mr.. Brodrick,
the secretary of state for war, is not
popular with the British army. 1t is
learned from talk in the military clubs
that no less than 1000 officers have
sent in their papers to the war Office.
In military circles it is the only top
ic of conversation. Dissatisfaction is
expressed on all sides. None of these
military men, believe Mr.. Brodrick
will be able to realize a new army
scheme. The recruiting outlook is
very block indeed.

New York, May 29.-Secretary Root
is quoted in a Washington dispatch to
The Tribune as saying of the supreme
courts decision in the insular cases:
"Unquestionably the decision of the
court sustains the contentious, theo-
ries and the policy adopted by the adj
ministration in conducting the affairs
of the Spanish islands since the rati-
fication of the Paris treaty. The up
holding of the Foraker act signifies
that congress has the power to legis-
late without being limited by the pro-
visional contingencies of the consti-
tuition. For instance, the constitution
al provision setting forth that uniform
duties must be collected does not ap-
ply to the islands. The general result
of the decision is certainly very graf
flying.
"Of course there will be some little
embarrassing caused by the holding
that no duties can be collected except
by congressional legislation, but it will
be only temporary embarrassment"

Washington, May 2S.-The United

Although several of the decisions up

fatt Meets the Minority's Objection.
Philadelphia, May 2S.-The Presby-
terrain general assembly, by unani-
nous vote, has adopted the majority
report of the revision committee after
slight amendment to recommends
ton B.
Before proceeding to the further
consideration of the question of revi-
sion the assembly adopted the report
of the committee on the next place of
meeting, which selected the Fifth Ave-
nue. Presbyterian church, New York,
as the meeting place of the general
assembly of 1902. An amendment was
offered substituting Los Angeles for
New York, but DR.. Roberts, stated
clerk, announced that the condition of
the assembly's funds would not war
rant such selection and the amend
ment was lost. Invitations were also
received from Denver, Milwaukee and
Saratoga Springs.
The committee recommended to the
next session the selection of Los An
geles for the session of 1898. When
the regular order of business was
reached-the revision of faith-the
moderator made a few remarks ad
vising against any hasty action. He
said there was tendency to rush the
matter so that the assembly could ad-
would not get into panicky condition
and do something which they might
regret. He suggested, however, that
all speeches be limited and a motion
to limit them to 10 minutes was unan-
imously carried.
James D. Moffatt, D. D., president
of Washington and Jefferson univer-
sity, explained that he was moved to
offer the amendment to recommends
ton B because of the small majority
which on Saturday voted to retain the
recommendation in the revision COM
mittee's report. Objection had been
made, he said to the original recon-
mendation because of ambiguity in
certain portions and his object in
amending was to render the vote of
the assembly unanimous on whatever
action might be taken.
DR.. Moffatt's amendment is as fol
lows:
eve recommend that this committee
be instructed to prepare and submit to
the next general assembly for such
disposition as may be judged to be
wise, brief statement of the reform
ed faith, expressed, as far as possible,
in untechnical terms. The said
statement is to be prepared with
view to it's being employed to give in
formation and a better understanding
of our doctrinal beliefs and not with
view to it's becoming a substitute for
or an alternative of our confession of
faith"

proud. 1t has just entered upon its years
work with a membership of 240 The re-
ceipts of the last year were 81, 1882. The club
has the nucleus of an art gallery, and bought
a Reaser picture last year at cost of $3.50.
There was a strong agitation for a club
house last year, but this proved too large
an undertaking. The club is now housed in
the Y. M. c. A. building and expects later to
occupy quarters in the new library building
but has not given up the hope of some time
having a building Of it's own
Mrs. w H. Bailey, president of the Wom-
ans club and also of the state federation,
in her inaugural address in the club, urged
each of the committees to make a thorough
study class of itself. She regarded the COM
mittees the training school for the indi-
vidual and the place for planning and car
rying altruistic work; the open club is
where the women thus trained can come
together to present results Of investigation
along their lines whether given by thinkers
without or within the club and is also the
place where questions affecting the club or
community should be taken up. She an
nounced that the art exhibit planned for this
year would be Of the works of Charles Cum

dues from So year to IS.

A PRACTICAL ORGANIZATION
Little Machinery and Big Results in
NeedIewOrk Giuld.

No more practical far-reachng charity
could be devised than that established by the
Needlework Guild which is international in
it's scope, and which has, in Minneapolis one
of the largest and most 1ourishing branches
in America. 1t is far reaching in a double
sense, in that a large number of people
each make a small contribution of new, plain,
durable garments, which are received by
an equally large number Of deserving poor,
thus beneftng both donor and recipient
These garments reach the wearers through
the best possible channels, the regularly or
ganized charities of the city, individual cases
being met through the city poor depart
ment
The works Of the guild is absolutely non
sectarian, all worthy organizations of what
ever belief being recognized and aided. The
only requirements are that an application
should be made stating the kind Of garments
needed and they must be called for on the
day of distribution. Such institutions as
Bethany Home and the Childrens Home say
they could not possibly carry on their work
at the present time without this aid An ex-
cellent feature of the work is that donors
may specify the institution to which they
wish their garments sent by marking their
package with the name of the institution.
The Minneapolis branch was organized in
1892 with twenty-seven section presidents who
collected 3,811 garments, the work of col
lecting and distributing being accomplished ed
in one day. Last year $500 garments were
collected by fifty section presidents and the
work now requires a full week The guild,
never feeble child, Is now in it's tenth year,
strong and robust, giving promise of future
which will develop into one of the greatest,
wisest and best philanthropies of the new
century.
