The monks of St. Bernard have
taken advantage Of modern inventions
ia their work of saving lives. Ten
days ago two Swiss alpenists started
out to go to the h0Spice. Half way
up they were overtaken by snow
storm and lost their way. After wan
dering around the summit for several
hon they came across one of the
new shelters built by the monks. In
it they found bread. cheese, wine, a
spirit lamp and telephone. With
the latter they called up the hospice
and asked for help. By the time they
had finished good meal a monk and
dog arrived to show them the way.
The telephone at these shelters has
saved many lives during the past win
ter.

Detroit, June 4.-Over 300 delegates,
representing the milling trade in all
parts of the country, were present
when the first convention of the Millers'
National Federation was called to or
der here. Transportation rates and
the reciprocity treaties negotiated by
Commissioner Kasson are two of the
most important subjects that the mil
lers will consider at their three days
session. They allege that the railroads
and ocean lines discriminate against
-four in favor Of wheat in making
freight rates. In his address President
B. A. Eckhart, OF Chicago, gave a
comprehensive resume of the milling
industry as it exists today.
Industry Il Not Appreciated.
He said in part: "The railroad trans
portation companies until quite rex eut-
ly have failed to show proper appre.
citation of the Importance Of the Iaill-
ing industry, in that they not only re
fuse to make fair and reasonable
freight rates for carrying the product
Of the mills, but actually discriminate
against -four for export, although such
differential is unwarranted by the rel
alive cost Of carrying the commodities.
The ocean steamship lines are still dis

lie regard to the reciprocity treaties
Eclkhart said: The action of foreign
countries in closing their doors against
our -four, either by high protective
tarin or a registration duty, should
stimulate the members OF the fedora
ton, as well as the millers of the coun.
try, to favor policy Of national reel
procity and to induce the government
to negotiate new treaties with France,
Germany. England and other European
countries. It Is the conviction Of the
most thoughtful minds Of this country
that the prosperity of American agri.

tracks between Spartanburg and
Greenville, and the three bridges are

Elements at Pacolet and Clifton on the
Pacolet river in South Carolina do not
lessen the horrors Of the situation.
The town of Union. s. c., is totally
isolated. The Lockhart mills, located
below Pacolet, for whose safety fears
had been expressed, are but slightly
damaged.
At Pacolet Presbyterian church, a
hotel, and a number Of mill cottages
were entirely demolished. The food
was due to mighty food of rain along
the headwaters of the Pacolet river, in
Polk county, N. c. The crest Of the
flood when 1t reached Pacolet was six
ty feet high. The mills were located
along the banks of the stream in a
deep valley, high hills rising on either
side, and they caught the full force Of
the food. Mill men conversant with
the situation say that the destroyed
properties will be rebuilt on the former
sites, and will probably be in partial
or complete operation again within
twelve months The Glendale mill
probably will be in shape to resume in
sixty days.

Though a statute may be of a class

nevertheless to be so construed as to
effect sthe intention Of the legislature.
Effect is to be given to the plain mean
ing of the language, and strict con-
struction is to be applied only where
the effect is reasonably open to ques-
ton. The rule that penal statutes are
to be construed strictly is not violated
by allowing their words to have their
full meaning or even the more extend
ed of two meanings, where such con-
struction better hamonizes with the
context Sutherland on Statutory con-
struction Section $50.
But the statutes to be construed are
not penal. There is no question raised
concerning the construction of the
paragraph providing that the company
shall forfeit 10000 to anyone over
charged. The only questions concern
the paragraphs which set the rate of
fare. These are no more penal than
they would be if there were no later
provision in the law providing for a
penalty.
