but balk and kick. The president gets
them together and bitches them up, but
the first thing he knows one or the other
has kicked over the traces and spoiled
the whole thing.
Conferences Were Futile.
It is an open secret that the various
conferences held between eastern and
western senators on the currency ques-
ton have come to nothing except an
agreement to disagree. These senators
had their first meeting at the hot springs
in West Virginia. Result-no harmony.
OF late they came together at Senator
Aldrich's beautiful summer home near
Newport. Again disagreement. For the
present at least they have given up the
job Of trying to get together.
According to one report Senator AID
rich will not agree to anything the other
senators want and they will not indorse
anything that he proposes. It is not
worth while to attempt to describe the
rocks upon which they split.
Roosevelt Is Working.
The important point and the new point
is that President Roosevelt is behind this
currency reform scheme, pushing as only
he knows how to push. He organized and
promoted the effort. He induced the SEN
ators to meet in conference. When they
failed the first time he asked them to
get together and try again. He had a
number Of them down to Oyster Bay, one
by one, for a pow-wow, he sent for Joe
Cannon and labored long and earnestly
with that Indifferent and somewhat sar-
castle statesman.
Finally the senators came down from
Mr.. Aldrich's place on yacht and landed
at Oyster Bay to tell the president they
had again failed to agree. Mr.. Roose-
welt was grievously disappointed, but he
refused to give up.
He still says there must be currency leg
islation and he is hammering away at it.
He still insists that the statesmen Of the
republican party must come to an agree
n1ent before congress meets and If they
shall be able to do SO, he is ready to call
the extraordinary session very early in
the autumn In order to give them a chance
| to thresh the thing out between them
selves, between the two houses and with
their uncertain, annoying and long winded
friends, the democratic minority Of the
senate.

PRESS, PULPII's RIVAL
N. Y. Minister Presents a Peculiar
View Of Existing Conditions to
His Congregation.

New York, Aug. 24.-The Rev. DR..
Arthur 8. Macarthur in his sermon at
Calvary church yesterday said:
To-day the pulpit has more powerful
rivalry than ever before. The newspaper
press, the cheap magazines, and the free
libraries fill, in part, the place once oc-
cupied by the pulpit alone.
The newspaper day, is the university
extension course OF the rank and file Of the
people. It has mighty educational
power. Still 1t is true that the press can
never take the place of the living voice.
TT will be admitted that in churches
with greatly elaborated ritual, the pulpit
is comparatively innpotent.1 The true
minister Is not performer of ecclesias-
itical rites. He is a preacher Of great
spiritual truths.

How to sleep mfortably.

NJ. A. Farrt. II French scientist, has
undertaken to teach us how to sleep,
says the New York American. He has
experimental scientifically in the art
of sleeping comfortably. AS result
he advises the abolition of the pillow
and the bolster. The only natural po-
sition for one to assume while sleeping
is the horizontal. First one must get
used to SlccpiH@ without Il bolster The
next step, he says, is to remove the pill
low, for not until then will the circu-
lation Of the blood be as free as il
should be. In further explanation he
says that the pillow and bolster keep
the head and neck at an abnormal an
gle and that consequently the sleeper $
entire body remains during the night
in an uncomfortable position, and one
which impedcs the free course of the
blood through the vessels and organs.

George j. Ross whose death is chron-

came to his hand to do, he did it WELL
OF retiring disposition, the younger
generation knew little of him, but his
worth and his integrity were of the
highest character, and may well prove
an example to those of the present
time. His skill as an accountant was
almost unequalled, and once embarked
upon a piece of work he attended to it
heart and soul. This close application
to his duties told upon his health sew
eral years ago, and though he over
came his illness, he never was the same
man again. The Star extends sympa-
thy to the bereaved wife and family.
