Major John Milsaps lectured before a
select audience In the Salvation Army
hall last night on the subject with the
Americans In the Philippines" The
major talked Interestingly Of the occu-
patton OF the islands by the American
forces, and because Of the fact that he
accompanied Gen. Merritt and the
United States forces as the special rep
resentative OF the Salvation Army, ne
was able to speak authoritatIvely on
conditions as they existed there during
that memorable campaign. Major Mil
saps has visited Astoria once before. n
years ago. and he finds that things have
undergone a marked change since then.

will grow and become an influential
factor In the religious education Of that
class Of people to which 1t caters in
Astoria. The major previous to his con
version was typical western frontiers
man. and he is familiar with early days
in the Rockies and California.

PERSONALITY OF NEW POPE.
Though of simple ORIGIN He L. of
Striking Appearance and of
Gracious Disposition,

Rome. Aug 6.-The new pontif is a
man OF simple origin. and although not
considered as a prominent candidate.
he had been frequently mentioned as
one OF the many cardinals who might
be taken up as compromise. In sew
eral respects he resembles his prede-
cessor, notably in his reputation for
culture and piety. Having been asso-
eiated with no factions. this fact alone
won him much favor from the foreign
cardinals who were without a special
candidate.
Plus Y. was humorouslv described as
country mouse who could not posi-
bly, find his way about Rome" Vene-
tians who knew the new pope well say
that he will soon be as much beloved
as pontif as he was as the patriarch
of the poor of the Adriatic In appear
ance Plus X. is a handsome man. He
has a fine, erect figure. despite his IS
years, his face greatly resembling that
Of the late Philips Brooks. of Boston.
When he pronounced his first bene-
diction al St. Peters his voice rang
out with splendid resonance. In every
way he showed beyond doubt
that he had dignity and personality in
keeping with the best traditions ASSOC
ciated with the famous pontffs who for
centuries have ruled the vatican.

THE FOOD WE EAT.
Even the Temper af the Individuas
Ii said TO Be Colored by His
Daily bread.

Il has been said that a man is what
he eats. and this is undoubtedly true to
the extent that a man partakes OF the
nature of his regular food. Physiolo-
gists tell us that the human body is
constantly changing, and that the in
dividual averages an entirely new body
every seven years. and inasmuch as
food enters largely as factor into the
composition Of this body, there is prob
ably only a smsil margin for metaphor
In the proposition that a man is what
he eats. Even the temper OF the indi-
yidual is said TO be colored by his daily
bread. and this is easily conceivable
in view of the fact that the mere sight
of a meal has often caused a man 10
indulge In profanity. What. therefore,
may such a meal not be expected 10 60

be such benefit as is bound to accrue
from relief from temperamental infirm-
files.
In fact. Il seems. the food that is con-

When the lynchers and Hamilton

asked that his jewelry. some trifing
