six have united with the church., two on confession.
 An opportunity has been given7t0 a cOnsidera ble community in which a score of families prefer the church sup porting the wagon to attend church for whole year, most of whom would not otherwise have been able thus to worship; ..
 Increased friendliness between the two villages. This has been fostered by the use of the wagon on other occasions, thus promoting mutual ac- quaintance and helpfulneSs;
 People have been melted to take larger interest in getting their neigh Dor to attend church and in furnishing facilities for this end;
 Incidentally an opportunity has been given for showing Christian courtesy. From the first it has been announced that the use of the wagon was free for any who wished to attend church, though they preferred to worship else where than with the church providing the wagon. There has been no loss on that score.
 Manifestly work securing such re- suits is not strictly a charity and should not be so regarded at either end of the route. 1t is rather a cooperative movement in which impulses long felt have taken form and direction and many willing hearts and hands in all parts of the community have wrought in the good work which blesses all connected with it. It is the organized effort of the church to do it's regular and proper work in field which Providence has opened to it., and which promises larger and better results than almost any other within its reach. It is strictly in accord with the methods of social science. Is there not occasion for-r more work of this kind in many country communities? TIC. w. F.

 One of the question asked is "Where does the brain come from that runs our law-makers?" We do not pretend ed to mean. In our humble judgement the "brain that runs law-maker" should be none other than the cerebral matter under each individual law maker's hat. If the questioner in- tends by this question to ask: "Do our brainy lawmakers come from the small towns or the large towns?" l should answer unreservedly that they come from both and that neither has 8 monopoly of grey matter.

MINISTER BOWEN ACTS.
Forces Castro to Release British and

Washington. Dec 1O-Minister Bowen, at
Caracas. has accepted the trust placed upon
him to look after the interests of British and
German citizens in Venezuela. and this has
brought him into conflict with President Castro.
He has Informed the State Department that a
number of these citizens were arrested yester-
day in Caracas. Mr.. Bowen at once addressed
himself to President Castro to secure their re-
lease He represented that he had been charged
with the care OF British and German subjects
In Venezuela but President Castro was unwiIl-
the minister convinced him that he was acting
within his rights. and President Castro con-
sented with reluctance to release the principal
prisoners. Mr.. Bowen will insist on the release
of the remainder. Nothing in his reports to the
State Department indicated the reason for the
arrest of these foreigners except that they were
Germans or British.

property of all British and German citizens IN

boat Bolivar in this harbor last night. She
landed the BoIivar's officers here. while the
British sloop Alert took the crew of the capt

on the Venezuelan coast opposite to the island

The entire coast of Venezuela. from the ORR

the combined German and British fleet seized
and towed outside the harbor of La Guayra all
the vessels which were then there These were
the warshps General Crespo. Totumo Ossum

The news of the capture of the warships is
not vet generally known in the capital Great
excitement will undoubtedly prevail when it is
announced.
It is said on good authority that the captain
of the British cruiser Retribution this afternoon
sent a special courier from La Guayra to
Caracas with an ultimatuD, for compliance with
the note deposited yesterday by the British and
German ministers at the home of the Foreign
Minister before their departure from Caracas
II is said the ultimatum gives maximum OF
forty-eight hours in which Venezuela is to ac-
cede. The note it is said requests the inn
mediate cash payment of $34. 900 each to Great
Britain and Germany, and for the settlement
of claims arising from past revolutions by a
mixed tribunal the the last agreement
made with France. II is also said that the
British Minister at the last moment failed to
nresent claims. except for $4,000 but his de-
nand is not duly, supported by legal documents
and facts and is considered absurd
It is understood here that United States Min
lister Bowen has assumed charge of British and
