THE FREE PEW MOVEMENT
It Is Making Progress in All Parts OF
the Country.
From the Boston Advertiser.

From the Boston Advertiser
The rented pew is becoming an anomaly
in the Episcopal Church. AT least twenty
five years ago the rented pew was not only
one of the main sources of revenue to a
church but was also one OF the cherished
institutions In drawing the line between
the orthodox churchman seated and the
dissenter unseated. The clergyman or lay
nan who advocated free seats re-
garded with suspicion and In the light OF
an iconoclast. This applied not only TO
the old Episcopal churches. but to the Con-
sregational. Unitarian and other denomi-
nations well.
II Is hard to say at this date where the
free pew movement began, bat 1t has left
Its impress throughout the country. In
the city OF Boston. for instance, II is only
the extremely old Episcopal churches,
whose history Is 4 part of the history of
Boston, which retains the rented pew and
in these few exceptions nearly many
free seats ere provided In tie galleries.
there are rented seats. The general
idea OF the times is that The preaching of
the gospel should be absolutely without
restriction to all who may listen. The de-
cline I'm church attendance 50 that
churches are in that position where they
are gil i to get congregations at al. has
been one of the main factors In tho
change. But the change has come even IN
very prosperous churches.
At the present time the only central
Episcopal churches I'm this city which have
rented pews are Trinity and Emmanuel.
In Trinity go free seats are always avail
able in the galleries. and in Emmanuel
Church the galleries are always thrown
open. But even i'm these churches when
there are vacant seats In an unuccupied
pew, church ushers always assign strangers
TO them. SO that now practically every
vacant seat is free In st. Johns and in

In Siam.
AT present much of the trade OF Siam is
handled from Singapore. That country has
about 100000 people. Bangkok. the CAPT
tai. is growing about fast as any city
of the far east Only few years ago It
had no streets, and all the traffic was done
on the canals and rivers Most of the peo-
pie then lived In floating homes. and every
one went to market In boats. Now there
are forty seven miles of paved streets. The
banks of the Menam river have been cut
up by canals, The land is drained and
bridged and a solid city has grown up.
Many of the bridges are of steel anu there
is an opening there for bridge making ma
terials.

priSlng fellow. and he Is developing new
territory. Siam is already one OF the great
rice-producipg countries of the world
and IL will tie greater in the future. The
old rice mills are being replaced by steam
factories, nine of which are already light

American make. Bangkok has now mean

put up 10000 lamps, and IL is paying eight

1oc00 tons ana was valued at $L000,G00.
Our Farm Tools in Australia.

our reapers and mowers for sale in every

others of our implement firms work Aus
tralia as carefully as they do their home
territory and they have to fight for every
inch of the ground with the Canadian and
European exporters. Nevertheless they
have the bulk of the business and they
make a good profit.
The same should be the case with the
lighter farm tools. All sorts of farm
implements, pows, hoes, forks and wakes

as every class of American goods made II

can rails There are few Pullman cars
and other kinds of American rolling stock.
Australasia has now about 1900 miles of
tracks and the governments are pushing the
roads In different directions to develop the
country.
Government sales can also be made in
New Zealand. where American goods are
especially favored because of the speedy
filling of orders The English manufac-
turer wants years time to supply given
number OF engines. while the American will
furnish them within month so after
getting the order. This is SO as to bridges,

Easy Work for Drummers.

Ca Business is done there in about the
same way as at home. every one speaks
English, and special favors are given to
commercial travellers. On most of the rail-
roads reduction of 20 per cent is made on
drummerS tickets and there Is Il special
rate for their baggage. At the hotels drum
mers are charged but s. per day and they
are usually treated with greater respect
than other guests.

Melbourne especially has many, whose
fathers came in from San Francisco when

Upper Broadway.

From the New York World
The restoration of the street surface Of
upper Broadway on the line of the rapid
transit tunnel gives the broad avenue a
Partisan aspect by night: the added rows
of gaslights are pleasantly spectacular; but
by day the graveled walks with their bor-
ders of impoverished turf are not agreeable
TO look upon. The trees. the glory of the
old boulevard are gone. and those with
which IL was attempted to replace them
have died of >inanition in the thin top soil.
The Municipal Art Society now advocates
the substitution of hardy shrubs. The in
terest taken in the matter by this society
and by the local organizations indicates the
extent to which the deve.opument OF a civic
pride in appearance has recently gone.

Guinea, where American tobacco is prefer
red by the natives. Our tobacco is sent
there in sticks as black as ink and as sweet

II is the most common currency, being used
instead of money.
Our Trade in the Dutch East indies.
We ought to sell more goods in the Dutch
East Indies. AS far as l can see the Hol-
landers welcome fore gn exports and our
commercial travellers are well treated. The
cotton goods form about the largest of the
imports All of the people dress in cotton
and when a population amounts to 35,uei,-
coo, as it does there, such imports are val
liable. In Java alone there are 2o,0bfoo
people, every one of whom has two or thfe e

other is in the form of a bag, which reach

W de skirt. twisted up n a knot at the
waist. The cottons have very loud put
terms. and our American exporters should
send agents there for samples of the native
goods and initiate them. This is done by
the English and Germans who supply
most of the trade.
Java's Big Trade.
At present the imports of Java amount
to about 5000 900 annually The country
is rich from an Asiatic standpoint, and its
trade might be considerably increased. We
buy many shiploads of Java coffee every
year, and Amer. can vessels could carry out
our merchandise and bring back this cof-
| fee. At present the most OF our sales are
| in hardware and machinery. The Javanese

Mabers supper was bountiru and Rari-
dan. who thought he knew the possibilities
of the clubs cuisine, marveled at the chick
en-. fried In Maryland style and at the
shoestring potatoes and fiaky rolls. which
marked an advance on any thing that the
club kitchen had produced before. There
was champagne from the stock which the
Margraves carried In their ear, and it
foamed and dubbed In the Venetian glasses
that Mabel had brought from home, at a
temperature that Mabel herself had regu-
lated. Captain Wheelock made much of
frequently lifting his glass to Mabel in
imaginary toasts. The man from keokuk
drank his champagne with awe; he had
heard that Mabel Margrave was a tank -
and he thought this delightful thing to
be said of girl. Mrs. Whipple noted with
wonder Mabers capacity, while most of the
others tried not to be conscious of 1t.
Mabel grew q little boisterous at times
through the dinner, but no one dared think
that 1t was the champagne. Mrs. Whipple
remembered with satisfaction that she had
no son to marry Mabel. There were. she
considered. certain things which one
escapes by being childless. and a bibulous
daughter-in-law was one of them.
Attention WIS arrested for time by a
colloQuy between Mrs. Whipple and Cap
tain WheelOck as to the merits of army
girls compared with their civilian sisters;
and the whole table gave heed Wheelock
maintained that the army girl was the only
cosmopolitan type OF American girl. and
Mrs. Wmpp!e Combated the idea. She took
the ground that American girls are never
provincial; that they all wear the same
clothes, though, she admitted they wore
them with "a difference; and that the army
girl as a distinct type was 4 myth.
