The British cruiser Grafton has re
turned from cruise and reports having
found the body of Bruno Lehman. the
customs officer of the Clallam, off Race
Rocks. John Davis of Nanaimo made a
statement regarding a conversation be-
tween Captain Roberts and passengers
who demonstrated with him for not plac-
ing them on the tug Holyoke. Davis said
he believed the passengers were kept on
board the steamer to BAIL in the effort to
save property, declaring that when
dozen passengers waited on the captain
and asked why he had not signaled the
HolyOEe for the purpose of placing the
men aboard the steamer the captain re-
piled: 4 am running this part of the
work. When | see we are in danger |
will signal the tugboat TO come back. We
can get there all right The steamer is
good for three hours" Il said,' con-
tinued Davis. why don't you run up
to some rocks? The captain replied:
4 am not running the tug; they can take
MS wherever they like Well | said,
you could have signaled the tugboat and
given instructions when the tugboat was
alongside The captain in reply stated
that he wanted to save the steamer"
Davis declared the Clallam did not re-
main afioat twenty minutes after this
conversation.

small bodies grew in proportion to the
large. Unitarians have been at a stand
still for several years. Last year they
claim a growth of about 1000. Univer-
salists have barely held their own, but
last year claim a growth of 594. Other
small bodies, like the Evangelical, the
various branches of Methodism, almost
all Of the divisions of Presbyterianism
and the many small synods of Luther
ans, these and others show proportionate
growth.
On the other hand, some of the larger
bodies made showings of which they
have little reason to boast For example,
the Protestant Episcopal Church increas-
ed in membership only 1920 and is
steadily decreasing in the proportion of
infant baptisms. All Presbyterian bodies
grew but 1,552, which is an average of
not so many as one member to church,
and Methodists, north, with 2S,213
churches, grew only 29,265 members.
They passed the 100000 mark and are
the largest single religious body in Amer
lea which bases its numbers upon actual
communicates and not upon population,
as in the case of the Roman Catholic
Church.
Official Baptist and Roman Catholic
figures for the year have not yet been
collated. Any figures given now would
be estimates and the data on which they
rest is so vague that they must be hard
ly more than GUESTS.

RED MEN SELF SUPPORTING.
Superintendent of IDdiau Schools
Makes Gratif,ing Report.


The annual repor. OF the superintend-
ent of Indian schools, containing infor-
nation obtained from personal visits to
agencies and schools and from statistics
received in the Office, has been submit
ted to the Commissioner Of Indian At
fairs. The results are given in tabu-
lated form and show the number of chill
dren attending school; the number speak
ing English; the number self-supporting ::
the number of girls among the returned
students who keep neat homes, ard the
number of returned students tilling their
land. The Indians present condition is
compared with that of ten years ago.
Tribes that were practically living in
idleness then are to-day working at
whatever they can find to do. The good
results obtained from placing children
with families during a portion of the
school year is commented upon, and it
is recommended that this system be ex
tended to all schools where conditions are
favorable. 1t is urged that more time
be devoted to teaching girls cooking and
other domestic arts and that boys receive
additional instruction in agriculture. 1t
is also suggested that teachers pay more
attention to the study of the Indians
character; that all attempts at recon
Struction of their thoughts be guided by
this knowledge, and that all efforts in ed
ueation be aimed at teaching self-support
IN the shortest possible time. The re-
port says that through the influence of
tie schools the Indians are slowl. but
gradually advancing in civilization.

CHURCHES GROW IN A YEAR.
Membership in Them Keeps Pace with
the Population,

In even figures the membership of all
religious bodies in America at this time
is 29.000.OU0, or an increase last year
OF about 10000, according TO statistics
compiled by the Church News Associa-
ton of New York. Some churches reck-
on actual communicates. some baptisms.
some adherents. but large proportion of
church officials jump at estimates and
then forget 10 send their estimates to the
UNCONVENTIONAL statistician. The ecclesi-
astical years in different bodies are not
the same and hence it Is impossible to
say that a particular body increased in
membership so many hundreds or thou
sands last year. Roughly speaking. it
appears that Christianity is just about
keeping pace with population in the mat
ter of growth. Certainly it grew none
on the population last year Always in
prosperous financial times religious in
terests suffer TO some extent. The pres
ent times are no exception and returns
for the year just ended snow that the
world is paying marSe5 attention TO
worldly affai
Three bodies about which much was
heard in 1908 are the Dowieites, the
Christian Scientists and the Jews. The
FIRST named have been credited by the
religious statisticians with 4 member
ship of 10000. They themselves admit
that they know of only 23,50o. The sta
tisticians have uniformly given member
ship figures of Christian Scientists. Yet
officials of Christian Scientist churches
affirm that no records are compiled and
that they themselves do not know their
numbers.
The influx of Jews into America is
enormous at this time and it is out of the
question even to estimate their total 1t
is said that the number Of Jews who
are recorded as belonging to congrega-
ton is 10000. If this be accurate,
which is doubtful, it is less than one
quarter of all the Jews resident in New
York City alone, at present the great
center OF Jewish population i'll the world.
y few years ago it was true that the
larger religious bodies were growing larg
er and the small ones smaller. Last

should prove to be fruitless.
