a Ike markable Dividend Record

The impending issue by the Penn
sylvania OF S75, 600, 900 new capital stock
directs attention to the earning capac-
ity of the system and its probable abil-
ity to continue to pay dividends at the
present rate on the increased capitaliZa
tion. The average dividend rate dur
ing the past 46 years has been 6.5 per
cent, and the company has not missed
n cash payment in its entire dividend
history of AZ years, although the rate
has varied.
The Penn'a was chartered in 1876
with capital amounting TO 1900, 600,
which has since been increased from
time to time until it is S202, 000, 600
1t will shortly become $277, 000, 900, and
the difference between the latter fig
ure and the original capitalization gives
an idea OF the tremendous growth of
the system. The company began pay
ing dividends in 1876. since when, it il
estimated, the stockholders have receiv-
ed in dividends sums aggregating
5000, 600, 900. For years the annual
dividend rate was 10 per cent and no
year has the company paid less than :
per cent, In addition to their div-
dends the stockholders have frequently
been given valuable rights in new stock
issues. In view of this history it is not
remarkable that no objection has been
made by stockholders to the company's
plan TO spend over 500, 900, 600 for bet
terments, which, it is expected, will in
sure a permanent continuation of the
company's wonderful dividend record.

CHURCH NOTES.

The Northern Conference of the
Lutheran Church General synod
meets at Clarion, Pa next Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday, June Oil.
At Los Angeles, last Friday, the Pres
byterian General Assembly:
Resolved that this assembly most re-
spectfully but earnestly, calls upn the
people of the United States to use their
utmost endeaver, employing all honor
able means to secure the expulsion of
Apostle Reed Smoot from the halls of
the National Senate, and urges the Sen
ate itself and each member thereof to
exhaust all legal means to secure the
this end, and in accordance with the
provisions of the Federal Constitution.
This assembly also calls upon the
people and Congress of the United
States in both houses, and each member
of each house to employ and exhaust all
legal means to secure such an amend
ment to the Federal Constitution as
shall define legal marriage as monoga-
mic and make polygamy under guis
and practice a crime against the United
States. punishable by adequate penal
ties, including Acknowledgement and
disqualification to vote or hold Office in
the United States or in any State or Ter
ritory under the jurisdiction of the
United States"
Greed revision in the Presbyterian
church is an assured fact. The an
nouncement was made at the session Of
the General Assembly that all eleven
amendments to the confession of faith
had been adopted by the presbyteries
by an almost unanimous vote. Not a
single overture received less than 195
affirmative votes nor less than NEGATIVE
votes This is said to settle the ques-
ton of revision for years to come but,
as one of the commissioners expressed it:
This does not mean that the church
has changed or revised her faith The
revision is in the line of dropping some
phrases capable of double meaning
and the more explicit statement of
others.
