by the reply to a letter which has been
sent TO her family. Meanwhile she is
the guest of Mr.. and Mrs. Fiske War
rem, of Boston, studying American in
stitutions and making special efforts
to become mistress of the English Ian
guage. She finds as much difficulty in
endeavoring TO understand our social
and economic conditions as She does
in comprehending the vagaries of our
tongue.
The senorita, says the Kansas City
Star, is pretty, after the Japanese
type. She is small and slight, with
light brown skin, very dark brown eyes
and wavy black hair.
The Lopez home was open to the
Americans at all times. and many of
the officers visited there. The desire
Of the family is declared TO have been
that war should cease as speedily as
possible.
The only members of the family not
then in the country were SiNto, who
was conducting propaganda in the
United States. and jose. who was
studying engineering in England. The
family was oyerioyed when news came
last winter that Sixto was on hisway
to Manila. 1t was their desire. it is
declared. that he should cease his work
in behalf of independence, return to
Manila, take the oath Of allegiance and
trust 10 the good offices Of the Ameri-
can government.
In order to endeavor TO persuade him
TO this line of conduct. CIemencia. ac-
companied by her I7-year-old sister,
Maria. iourneyed to Hong-Kong to
meet him.
They sailed from Manila on Decem-
her Is. Two days before their three
brothers had been arrested. and later
confined on a transport, and deported
to the island of Talim. This was un-
known to her when she sailed. The
brothers were suspected of aiding the
insurgents, and it was charged that
when one of them, CiprianO, surren-
dered he failed to turn in 80 rifles be-
longing to his command. He asserted
that he had turned in all the rifles in
his possession, but information TO
the contrary had been given by one
whom the members of the Lopez fam
iIv denounce as a political enemy, and
that information Influenced the gov
ernment in the arrest Of the three
brothers, Cipriano, Lorenzo and Man
uel
Cemencia was in Hong-Kong when
the news of the arrest Of her brothers
was received in letter from home.
She was astounded at this turn Of af-
fairs. and instead of counseling Sixto
10 abandon his propaganda and return
n Manila. she urged him not 70 do so,
She then determined to appeal 10 the
president, and wrung from her brother
and sister their approval OF this plan,
formulated by herself.

That Friend of the Family.
He's here all the time, or II seems so 10 me;
We never know when TO expect him
He's family friend, so IN deeeney We

1t would not be so bad If he'd just make his
call
And depart, but he seldom displays
The remotest intention TO go home al all.
So he stays.
Yes, he stays and he drones on of this and
of that
All inconsequsnt, tiresome and prosy.
He has dropped in, he says, for a nice,
quiet chat,
And time he GenOminaUes COZy.
He's most monumental, colossal old bore
And he tinges with darkness our days.
If he'd just come and 80 We would not feel
so sore,
But he stays.
When we want to go out and we've got on
our things,
Or we've company more entertaining,
So certain our friend of the family rings,
And he's always the last one remaining.
It's a source everlasting Of infinite woe.
And II also is one Of his ways
That the others may come ard the others

But he stays.

ECONOMY OF THE POOR.

OF course, worklngman can. as
Prof Clark Of the Northwestern uni
versity says, live on 5000 year. He
could probably live on even less, II the
question We're one OF living merely,
without the enjoyment of life accord
Ing to modern ideas. It takes very lit
tie to merely insure existence It Is n
somewhat common mistake to suppose
that the family with very small In
come should be in a position to live
very cheap, The fact is that such fam
lilies are under the necessity Of paying
the very highest prices for everything
they must have, because they buy small
quantities and generally at times when
the prices are high. II Is the rich that
can take advantage of discounts and
bargains. The only way for the poorly
paid laborers TO derive such benefits
would be by cooperation, by which
they would he enabled to buy In large
quantities and select their markets. BY
cooperation the laborers would be en-
abled TO live good and cheap, and to
save some OF their earnings for the
comforts Of life. Cooperation would bt
the best economy. In this connection Il
should be remembered, though, that the
American laborer is supposed not only
to live, but to enable beef trusts, OF
trusts, and other trusts to live and t.
lay by a few dollars. And that is on,
reason why he needs more than $500 9

men, and the lonely are pining away
for the love that looks out Of human

why all her people loved her so. II Is
the story of how she helped poor
Scotch woman during one Of her visits

child was stricken llfeless by very
sad accident. The accident was talked
of by all in the neighborhood and the
queen heard II. Ii melted her mother
heart and she Immediately went to the

gave n new life to the mother so that

she accounted for her exalted state of

visit that lifted me above my sorrows. ="
Then she was asked what the queen
said, what she gave what she did. y
The woman answered; "The queen said
nothing; the queen gave nothing; the
queen did nothing, When she came she
was so broken down that she cried with
me as though her heart would break"

CHAs. w. ELIOT ON CHURCHES

The question whether the churches
are losing their hold on the public Is
one about which opinions are divided
Most observers believe that their intlu'
ence Is decaylng, while few, principal
~ clergymen, see many encouraging
signs around them, especially In the
generous responses to calls for con
trlbutIons. Church attendance, how
ever, Is not found to be as popular as
II used TO be. Religious observances are
not as common az formerly People ex-
cuse their faults and sins with the re-
mark that they are not religious as
IL that would give them license to do
many things they know are wrong,
President Charles W. Eliot takes the
view that there has been decay In the
influence Of the churches. In the cur
rent number OF the Worlds Work he
says on this subject.
"The church, and It's ministers cannot
be said 10 have risen In public estima
tion since the civil war. Its control
over education has distinctly diminish
ed. In some OF It's branches II seems
to cling to archaic metaphysics ana
morbid poetic lmaginings; In others II
apparently lncllnes to take refuge la
decorums, pomps, costumes and OBJ
seryances, on the whole, II has not
been able 10 keep up with the progress
OF either science or democraey--thOse
Atalantas of the nineteenth century
that never stop for golden apples drop.
ped In their path-and It has shown lit
tie readiness to rely on the Intense real
ity Of the universal sentiments to which
Jesus appealed, or to 60 back to the
simple preaching OF the Gospel OF broth
erhood and unity-of love to God and
love 20 man. SO the church as a whole
has today no influence whatever Oh
many millions OF our fellow countrymeh
---called Jews or Christians, Professionals
or Catholics though they be. We still
believe that the voluntary church Ia
the best OF churches, because a re.
ligion which Is accepted undel
compulsion Is really no religion
at all for the individual soul.
though II may be social embellish-
ment or prop for the state Yet,
believing thus, We have to admit that
the voluntary church In the United
States has no hold on a large and In.
oreasing part OF the population"

A SWEDISH MEETING HOUSE

In letter to the News" dated
Stockholm, Nov. Z, Elder Peter Sund-
wall, Jr., gives an encouraging report
OF the work done In the Stockholm con.
ference, Sweden, He also points out the
need of a more conveniently located
place OF worship than the one occupied
at present. and mentions what Is be.
ing done in this direction. On this sub
ject he says:
our hall here is altogether too small
and Is located In an undesirable part
OF the city. In consequence OF this ef-
forts have been made 20 get a larger
better and more agreeably located ham
Because the rents on such halls as
would be suitable are extremely high
II has been deemed best TO find sit,
and erect a building. The site Is now
purchased and, considering its central
location, is suitable for building such
as the Saints here need. Bro. Nils MI.
son, one OF the committee charged by
President c. d. Fjeldsted and President
A. l.. Skanchy, TO determine on some
suitable site, has purchased such a site
which viii cost 5000 kr. Bro. Nilsson
has made a payment OF $4,000 kr,. the
balance, $1,000. kr. to stand az a low
rate OF Interest.
Now the question is, will or can We
get o house put up on the site? Wi,
the Saints at home help In this regard ?
II Is estimated that $4,000 kr. viii be
