Naval Militia Enters Into the Plans
of the Government.
Washington, May 29.-The naval
general board has completed it's elab-
crate scheme for the defense of the
Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf and Great Lake
coasts of the United States. Admiral
Dewey declares the scheme to be vi
tally important to the country at
large.
The purpose is to approximate an
impregnable defense of the entire
coast line of the United States and its
foreign possessions.
Acting Secretary Darling to-day
signed the instructions to the COM
lnandants of the thirteen naval dis
tricts into which the country has been
divided regarding the establishment on
a permanent basis of naval patrol.
The duty of the patrol will be to Sc
cure and forward information and to
communicate with ships at sea. The
Treasury, War and Agricultural De-
partments will cooperate with the
navy in this work.
Inc general lines or the Coast Sig
nal Service, put in operation during the
war with Spain, will be followed. Spe-
cial naval patrol stations, life-sAving
stations, lighthouses and light ships,
army signal stations, coast stations of
the Weather Bureau, and auxiliary
scouting lookout or patrol ships will be
called on to participate in the scheme
and at appropriate stations, telegraph,
telephone, cable and wireless means of
communication will be provided and
kept constantly in working condition.
The naval militia, to a large extent,
will be called on to make up the naval
patrol crews.

ARBITRATION CONFERENCE
Adopted a Platform at Its COncIud-
ing Session

Lake Mohonk, N. Y, May 29.-At the
concluding session of the arbitration
conference tonight the following plat
form was adopted:
"The principle of international ar
bitration has secured the approval of
the civilized world. This conference
believes that the next step in the
steady march forward should be the
conclusion of a treaty of obligatory ar
bitration between the United States
and Great Britain, to be followed by
similar agreements between the other
signatory nations to The Hague con-
vention to refer disputes to The Hague
tribunal. Such treaties would make
the present implied obligations of the
nations signing them explicit, binding
and permanent"
Virginius Newton of Richmond, Va,
spoke of the fniseries which war had
brought upon the South, and the bur-
dens under which it's people were still
struggling, and said that in no section
of the country did the principles of ar
bitration have such earnest supporters
as in the Southern states. For the
evils under which the South was suf-
fering the whole nation was RESPONSE
BILE, and the whole nation should help
in their removal

COLOMBIA TO Reject
THE CANAL TREATY

Colon, Colombia, May 29.-From a
most authentic and semi-oficial source
from Bogota, the capital, it has been

added that open opposition to the meas
ure is encountered everywhere.

The Great NRvies May He Gathered
in 1907.
Washington, May 29.-Nothing is
known here of the report that an inter-
national demonstration is to be held at
Hampton Roads next year in connec-
ton with the opening of the st. Louis
Worlds Fair. At least no proposition
to issue invitations through the United
States government to foreign maritime
Powers has yet taken shape.
1t is expected, however, that the
government will extend invitations of
this kind upon the occasion of the
Booth anniversary of the settlement of
jamestown, which is expected to re-
ceive the support of the Atlantic coast
states in 1907. The vessels in that case
will be gathered in Hampton Roads,
where the harbor is ample to shelter
the combined navies of the world.

Parents often consider thei- duty 20

that she marries the right sort of man.
But marrying the right sort OF man does

CHOOSING OF HUSBANDS

The fact is, parents begin too late to
tutor their girls u the choosing OF hus-
bands. They wait until they have fallen
in love. The best way to make our girls
choose men Of character is to instil char
acter into our girls. Not only does this
method enable them to recognize character
when it IS present and feel its absence
when 1t is lacking, but At creates the taste
for character and the desire to be associat-
ed with it. BY laws of moral gravitation
all vices and virtues seek on. their own.
As water, after strange meanderings, finds
again its level; as birds of a feather event
