Equally enthusiastic was Lawrence D

Il have been out OF the CITY" he said,
"and consequently do not know exactly
what The Republic proposes"
When the object OF the proposed sub
scrIption was explained. Mr.. Kingsland en-
tered heartily into the spirit Of the move
ment-
Undoubtedly a testimonial OF some
kind should be presented to the battleship
Missouri. Not only is II the custom. but II
is eminently proper that the people OF the
State should recognize the honor paid
them by the Federal Government
Although this plan is inaugurated and
started in ST. Louis. Il should be dis
tinctly understood that the testimonial
will be from the people OF the State. and
not from one city. OF even section.
"All persons should contribute. IN an
enterprise Of this kind the small amount
is as welcome as the larger. It IS an eX-
preston OF the whole people, and not from
any particular class. Let each contribute
according to his means. and the battleship
Missouri will be fittingly remembered by
the people OF the State whose name It
bears.

Il is the consensus of opinion among
representative business men that the
movement inaugurated by The Republic
TO provide testimonial for the hattleshp
Missouri. the most modern war vessel In
the United States Navy. should be heartily
supported by the people Of the State.
As custom has established the prscedsn,
that warshIps named in honor ~ IN" sev-
erRl cities and States OF the Union should
receive some recognition from the people
Of the community whose name they bea-.
q is generally thought that the nl1n pro-
posed by The Republic for a popular sub
scriptlcn is most timely and appropriate
Publc-spirited citizens OF 81. Louis and
the State Of Missouri are OF the opinion
that the subscription should. I'm the strict
sense OF the word. be popular. That
every one who can AFFORD TO contribute.
even though # IS a modest amount should
do their part toward recognizing the com
pliment paid TO their State by the Navy
Department.
Mayor RoIla Wells IS a strong advocate
OF the testimonial subscription. He te-
lieves that it Is the duty Of the people Of
Missouri To- provide some token that they
appreciate that the finest fighting machine
constructed ny the Federal AuNtIuIlleIt J.
named after their State.
Theodore Il. Ballard president Or the
Merchants Exchange. after expressing his
unqualified approval OF the movement.
said:
The people OF Missouri undoubtedly VIII
contribute liberallv toward providing a
testimonial Of this kind. Il should be
commensurate with the wealth and dig
nifty Of the State.
As TO the form which the testimonial
should take. that is a matter FOR future
consideration. ! believe that at least So,
OOO should be raised for this purpose. and
that amount. l think. can easily be Sc
cured.
Naturally the wishes OF the persons
most concerned should be considered in
selecting the testimonial The wishes OF
naval officers should be asccrtained and
the Secretary OF the Navy should also be
consulted. In a matter OF this kind the
personal feelings OF those who contribute
should be subservient 20 the needs OF the
persons TO whom the testimonial IS 10 be
presented

in recent times was Representative Bro
 sius. His gesticulation was of violent en
 ergy. Private John Allen used to say that whenever MT Brosius made a speech he burst his suspenders. One afternoon MT. Allen and a party were watching Brosius's exertions. There they go now. !" Allen exclaimed. "I'll bet you his gal fuses parted that time or else he lost both buttons at the rear of his trousers. As soon as he stops talking we will go over and find out about it." After ten minutes more of gesticulations the gift ed orator sat down. wiping the moisture that streamed from his brow and his cheeks. His collar was wilted, his hair was saturated with precipitation and his shirt front showed visible evidences oi the struggle. Mr. Allen approached the mater delicately, calling the member by his first name, compllmenting him upon his speech and the force of his delivery and finally remarking that he (Allen) could not indulge very much in gesticula- ton without busting his galluses." Mine parted about the middle of my remarks. '' remarked the orator, innocently. where upon Allen shook hands with him again and led his party away. ..ts..-

Nuns as Domestic Servants.

In Paris a number of the nuns cast adrift by the action of the French gov ernment are forming a league with view to seeking employment as domestic helps. They propose wearing a neat uniform of their own designing and to be called sis ter" instead of being addressed by Chris tian or surname without preface. If these conditions be agreed to and certain re- ligious privileges be accorded to them, they are quite prepared to undertake the duties of the ordinary domestic servant. Convent life will have certainly trained these ladies to- early rising and in the essentials of the useful calling of do- mestic servant, and it is to be hoped that French housewives will welcome them into their homes and do their best to make their lives as pleasant as possible The bravery of the evicted nuns in en- deavoring at once to accommodate them selves to the new state of affairs com mands respectful admiration.

All Wind and Water. Chicago Record-Herald.2 e.

It appears that forty-five of the 'corpo- rations made in New Jersey have been placed in the hands of receivers since the first of the year, that their liabilities are fourteen times as great as their assets. and that the stockholders in 8 majority of them are not likely to get anything worth mentioning out of their invest ment.
