s,s oueer way In church.

The most original character we meet
in the memoirs of the Princess Mary"
is her father, Duke Adolphus of Cam
bridge. He was a strong churchman,
but .'his religion sometimes took rather
an unconventional FORM" On one oc~
casion, after the officiating clergyman
had repeated the usual exhortation.
"Let us pray" the duke was heard to
reply, "By all means"
During very dry summer the vicar
read the prayer for rain. At the close
the duke Joined fervently in the
Amen adding, il exactly the same
tone of voice, But we shan't get 1t till
the wind changesP'
One Sunday, when the words, BE
hold, the half Of my goods l give to
the poor" were read, he astonished his:
fellow worshipers by rejoining: No
no. l can't do that. A half Is too much
for any man, but have no objection
to TENTH
Again, on hearing the text, "For we
brought nothing into the world, neither
may we carry anything out" he ejacu-i
lated, "True, true-too many calls upon
us for that"

CANTRBN is DOOMED.

Senators by Very Decisive Vote Concur
in the House Provision.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The army
canteen is to be abolished, as the SEN
ate by very decisive vote, eoncurred
in the house provision relative to the
army canteen. Only ID votes could be
mustered in the senate in favor Of the
canteen while "a were cast against it.
Most of the time was occupied by
Senators Teller (Colo.), Pettigrew Is.
D. and Butler IN. o. who all opposed
the adoption of the senate committee s
amendment which provides for the con-
tinuance of the canteeh.
Beyond disposing Of the canteen
question the senate accomplished little
and it seems doubtful whether final
vote upou the measure will be reached
before Friday or Saturday.

Memorial Signed by Residents

REASONABLE Attack on Our
Government.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1l.-A* the open.
ing Of the senate Mr.. Teller presented
a memorial from 1900 "Filipinos and
peaceful inha bitants" Of Manila. The
memorial was in the form of an appeal
to the congress Of the United States
and, as Mr.. Teller stated, was signed
personally by the leading people OF
Manila and that section-lawyers.
bankers and professional men, repre-.
senting the best elements Of that com"
munity. Itreviewed the circumstances
leading up to the present struggle OF
the Filipinos for independence. 1t
paid high tribute to the work Of Ag-
uinaldo and his coadjutors in their en-
deavor to obtain liberty and independ.
ence for the people of the Philippines.
Reference was made to some Of the
principal events Of the present revolu-
tion against American authority, the
petition urging that the American
troops had failed to make serious I'M
preston upon the revolutionary party.
1t pointed out that Aguinaldo had de-
clared he might lose the hope of victory
but he would not lose the hope Of dying
for the liberty and independence OF his
people. It points out that the resoiu'
ton has the support of practically
All the People of the Philippines
and declares that though 100 revolu-
tions be destroyed, 1000 will rise up to
support the fight for independence.
All of the islands of the archipelago,
says the memorial, are supporting the
revolution and they will not yield until
the last drop of Filipino blood has been
shed.
The appeal declares that auton-
omy similar to that enjoyed by Canada
or Australia would not be acceptable to
the Filipinos, who desire full liberty
and independence.
When the reading of the memorial
had been concluded, Mr.. Teller asked
that it be printed as document

WHO HAS NERVE.
Things Got Exciting in Senate
This Afternoon.

When the senate met at o'clock this
afternoon the fee and salary bill came up
again and Senator White, who is chair
man of the committee of fees and salar-
les, which presented the bill, moved that
the bill go over until Monday night
Senator Noftzger objected and moved
that the bill be postponed indefinitely
and said that the reason Senator White
moved to postpone was because he did
not have the nerve to push the bill.
Senator White took exceptions to the
remarks of Senator Noftzger and said
that he had as much nerve as any man.
No man can step two feet outside the
senate doors and tell me have no
nerve,' he said
Senator Noftzger denied any intention
of imputing anything concerning Senator
Whites nerve and the white winged dove
of peace came floating down and settled
before any deep red blood was spilled.
The motion to put the bill off until
Monday night was carried, although
Senator Smith made an eloquent plea
for the burial of the bill which he insist
ed was dead and only needed a decent
burial.
