CONVENTION OF GLASS
WORKERS GETS TOGETHER.

CLEVELAND, o., March 24.-Much
interest Is manifested in the national
convention of Glass Workers to open
here today. The convention, which
is a sequel to the conference held at
Muncie last month, will be participated
in by the blowers, shapers. cutters
and fIatteners Of Both l.. a. 800 and
the Window Glass Workers Of Ameri-
ca.
1t is hoped the convention will re-
suit in an amalgamation of the two
rival organizations. Such a result
would place the workmen where they
were before the original split in the
ranks a number of years ago and
which created such a discord that has
wrought havoc among the glasswork-
ers throughout the country, and which
has likewise caused the manufacturers
much loss of time and money.

wick and Lunsburg, the duke Of Cum
berland's second daughter, which was
rumored to be under negotiation last
year, at the Emperor Williams visit
to Copenhagen, and which was then
denied, apparently had some basis on
fact, but was frustrated by the dukes
sudden departure from Copenhagen
just before the emperor's arrival. Ac-
cording to the Brunswick Landes
Zeitung the emperor resented the
dukes departure and characterized it
as an affront, adding to a high mill
tary parsonage in his encourage that
he would not again run after the
duke. The paper vouches for the
story in such a manner as to warrant
the conclusion that it emenated from
the Brunswick ministry.

: In the city Of Panama, there were
in 1908 1870 deaths from all causes
giving an annual death rate in $4,000
population Of 7O.5 per 1000. 1t is es-
timated that malarial fever causes 50
percent Of the total morbidity, that
yellow fever is of frequent occurrence,
that tuberculosis, beri-beri and intes-
final diseases are extremely prevalent
The mortality statistics show there
were SIS deaths from yellow fever in
Panama in 1908, and the records Of
San Tomas hospital show that 80 cases
of this disease, "a deaths, were treated
in that institution during the same
period.
The alarming significance of these
reports is in the fact that yellow fever
feeds on immunes. The commission
was given early advice us to the dan
ger Of taking large numbers Of Ameri-
cans to work on the canal before the
towns had been cleaned up. A yellow
fever epidemic would surely follow
such an incursion.

tanning a list Of tausical works rem
dered in the Montreal churches on
Easter Sunday. He asked ironically:
"Was such music played in the Paris
churches?" On receiving the answer,
"Alas, yes," his holiness said: "Then
you must proceed with the work. 1
promise that your school will soon re-
ceive public proof of our interest,"
In this connection it is interesting to
read Of minister, the Rev. Henry G.
Swentzel, rector of an Episcopal church
in Brooklyn, who endorses the pope's
views on church music. Mr.. Swent-
eel said:
although we do not look to the see
Of Rome for our doctrines and ideas,
we are deeply interested in the pro-
nouncement which the Roman pontiff
has recently given concerning church
music. Not only does he disapprove of
mixed choirs Of men and women, but
he condemns the use of worldly and
Operatic music in churches. He is him
self musician of no ordinary degree.
We find ourselves in hearty sympathy
with the expressions referred to; and
especially in his structures against
iorid music does Plus x certainly
voice the sentiments of hosts of Chris
tian people. The musical performances
of the average choir are sadly inap-
propriate, because the selections lack
the fine religious spirit and also be-
cause these selections are far beyond
the ability of the singers. If the popes
musical judgment shall prevail in his
own communion, it's influence will ex-
tend outside, in which event untold
good will ensue. The time is ripe for
a radical musical reformation in the
churches. Pastors and people should
insist upon simpler music-such music
as choirs can sing well and congrega-
tions can appreciate. Music Of this
character will attract and edify. and
"Ai pAOAlONC lAC SuuSC Ol lCllSlOu
Poorly rendered programs Of elaborate
music, so far from helping, are to-day
hindering the progress of the Church
A long-suffering public will gladly well
come the proposed change. People Of
highly educated musical ideas look to
the opera rather than to the church for
the qualification Of their musical tastes.
Religious services are expected to pro-
mote religious devotion. A boy choir
cannot and should not compete with
the opera"
The large and still increasing chorus
Of appreciation in regard to the pope's
dictum, from people of all denomina-
tions, proves the absolute necessity OF
a reform in the direction at least of the
complete elimination of theatrical mu-
sic and those effects which, though
perhaps beautiful in themselves, prove
source of distraction rather than Of
devotion and edification.

Alone in the World.

We hear sometimes of people who
have been soured by disappointment,
misfortune or injustice, retiring from
the world. The more fools they. The
world can do without them, but they
cannot so we'll do without the world;
the more they nope in solitude, the
more unhappy they become, for man
cannot live the life Of hermit with
out violating conditions upon which
his mental health depends. The most
terrible punishment which the law can
infict upon criminal is the living
death Of solitary confinement. 1t may
be said that the consolation Of religion
compensates the loss and withdrawal
from mankind; but real religion is ac-
tive, social, beneficial; not inert, mo-
rose and selfish. In true religion we
find no time to nope over ones own
grievance, but seeking to soothe the
sorrows Of others, forgctful of self.

FIRM FOR CHOIR REFORM.
The Pope Not Inclinel to Abate HI.
Music Dictunl.

1t would seem that the pope has
small intention Of modifying his decree
as to the reform in church music. In
an audience which was granted to NJ.
Bordes, president of the Schola Can
forum Of Paris, the pope said:
II know the difficulties besetting
the reform. know the resistance
which will be offered. 1 am aware
that driving dance and opera music out
of the churches to restore the primitive
purity Of chanting will not be the work
Of day."
He counseled NJ. Bordes to work
without undue haste or anger against
men.
II have uttered and published my
intention" he said, "the rest is assured
l shall secure obedience. 1 know how
to take all the general and even special
measures which may be necessary, and
shall act"
M. Bordes expressed enthusiasm
over the Gregorian chant in st. Peters.
but not entire approval of the sounding
Of trumpets at the time of the eleva-
ton of the Host.
The pope broke in: "oh, I've al
ready ordered something to be played"
His holiness went on to say: IT like
Bach and the great symphonists' oper-
attic masterpieces, but 1 wish. operas
to be confined to the theaters. Such
music is admirable in it's place, which
is not in a church. l remember one

To Investiua.e Meat Trust.

An investigation of the meat trust
is desired by Representative Martin
OF South Dakota and he has succeed
ed in obtaining a favorable report on
his bill calling upon the secretary of
! commerce and labor to investigate the
cause of low prices of beef cattle in
the United States since July 1st, and
the unusually large margin between
the price of beef cattle and the selling
price of fresh beef
The purpose Of this inquiry will be
to determine whether these conditions
have resulted from any contract or
combination, or trust or conspiracy in
restraint Of trade
In favorably reporting this bill, the
committee on interstate commerce
says that the last three years have
been years of great prosperity in the
United States. The growers and feed
ers Of live stock have shared In this
general prosperity until the first part
Of 1903. Beginning at that time, the
committee states, the market for beef
steers has gradually declined. until in
December last the prices were lower
than at any time in five years, and
that it is difficult to account for this
condition in the beef market by natu.
raj causes alone, and these conditions
have entailed heavy losses upon cattle
men in the range country and else
where. and profits practically disap-
pearcd last year.
If this bill now passes the house
and also the Senate. Secretary CGrtCl-
you of the Department Of Commerce
and Labor will take charge of the in
yestigation under authority conferred
in the act creating his department. and
il will be the first important Investjga-
ton undertaken by him.

Japanese fleet attacked Port Arthur at
midnight Tuesday. The attack lasted
one hour. The attacking fleet came
from the direction of Talien Wan. Ou-
ing TO the distance of the attacking
vessels. he says, their early firing did
no damage. A signal was Immediately
given by the forts to prepare for the
attack. The Novik weighed anchor
and proceeded outside the harbor, but
after she had been struck twice in the
stern. she retired and returned to the
naval anchorage. The other Russian
vessels took no part in the combat,
but allowed the forts to do the work.
After quarter of an hour only one
tort remained active. the other main

ported that in this fort two guns were
disabled. One shell struck a mud
dredger, which sank, but the others
fell into the harbor. causing no dam
age. General Volkoffs house was
completely demolished and two guards
were killed by bursting shell. The
Japanese losses are unknown. The Rus

land entrance to Port Arthur. Several
thousand Chinese laborers are work

Port Arthur reports that the Retvizan,
the Czarvitch, the Pallada and the
Bayan are under repairs in the naval
dock. The rest Of the feet is anchored
