AS to Explanations.
 In your letter of the 3rd instant you asked me for an explanation. l have given it. l am now going to arN you for one 1 want you to explain why the bishop of Alabama certified to the Advent vestry that I was "a qualified clergyman of this church." and received me economically" in the diocese of Alabama, though he knew that within less than three years last past I had offciated at the mar riage of the Rev Charles Morris My standing as clergyman was unques- toned in the diocese of Mississippi prior to october 23, 1893. (You admit this). It could not have been something BETTER THAN UNQUESTIONED after October 2S, 1903. I was qualified" in Mississippi, prior to october 2S I was not more than 'qualifed' after that date
 If Bishop Beckwith was free to reject the Mississippi view CT my standing and qualification as a clergyman. before the meeting of the Mississippi standing com mittee. october 2S, why Is he not just as free to reject the Mississippi view. after the meeting of the said committee on the said date? Why was he free to ignore the procurement of the Mis- sissippi ecclesiastical authority upon my qualification as clergyman, before Oc- tober 2S and compelled to observe and act upon such pronouncement after that date? If on one day he could lawfully bind what Mississippi had not pornr why on another day might he no, nave lawfully bound what Mississippi had not bound? He received me in this diocese within less than three years ar;er mar ried Mr. Morris. He did so uv accne,;po so far as l was concerned. the Missis- sippi view of my standing as n clsre,, man. despite my part in the Morris mar riage. why uld he not accept the Mis- sissippi view then in the first instance?
 The meeting of the Mississippi standing committee October 2S did not change one date or one fact Did it convince Risbon Beckwith that my Interpretation Inf TX canon of marriage and divorce is tba oo, rect one? Is that why he received m, in this diocese? If not. why DID ha m ceive me?

Tragedy Which Overlook Travelling
 Arizonian.

St. Johns, A1iz., Sept 26.-(Special coIresp spondence of The Republicanl- Word has just reached here from the little mountain town of NutriOso, in the south part O. Apache county, tell ing of the killing O. George Wilki2s of that place by lightning, while he was on his way to MagdaIena, \. NJ The particulars cannot be learned/ at this time, but it is known that he left home with his wife and family of two children five days ago to resume some work that he had been doing. He was raised in this county, having come here with his parents over twenty years ago.
 The republican convention of this county meets here the 28th and politics are at last beginning to boil. Gustav Becker, the well known merchant, will be the party's nominee for the legisla- tive council, and Captain John T. Hogue, the veteran politician, will again be named as probate judge, but the other places are in doubt

An addition to the educat tioDaI fea- lures of Phoenix and the territory, is the establishment of a musical school to be known as the Arizona School Of Music A regular course of study in the various branches of music is laid out, at the completion of which dipIO mas will be granted.
 Mrs. Shirley Christy, the founder and director, will be at the head of the piano department. MT. Karl Cochems. graduate of the Chicago Musical Col lege, and pupil of Herman Devries of the Maurice Grau Metropolitan Opera Co.,. will have charge of the vocal de- partment.
 Mrs. Lloyd Hildrique Richards will have charge of the department of elo- cution and physical culture. Mrs. Richards is a graduate of the Elmer son School of Oratory, Boston, and of the Oberlin Conservatory, Oberlin, O.
 The musical kindergarten depart ment will be in charge of Miss Grace Andrews. The Musical Kindergarten system is a method of teaching chil- dren the rudiments and teaches tech mcalities, which are the basis of a thorough musical education. It is a system much used in eastern cities and towns, and in some of our large west ern cities. The school will occupy the entire second floor of the new Home Savings Bank building and will open October 1st.

THE "STAGE STRUCK"
A Theatrical Han Finds at Least Nine
 in Phoenix.

A few days ago The Republican printed an editorial in which the folly of becoming stage struck was pointed out Mir Grattan of the Grattan De Vernon company, then rehearsing in Phoenix, imagined he saw in the edi- torial an attack upon the profession and advertised extensively on Monday that on that night he would proceed to make a reply.
 Since then another theatrical man came to town, MT. c. D. iBeales the advance agent of .The French MHl- ner." MT. Beale had heard of the edi- torial and in speaking of the matter yesterday he said that the Republican and all the papers of the country ought to print more such editorials. It would Le a good thing not only for the peO- pie but also for the theatrical pro- fession. Said. MT. Beale: 'The young men and women of the country seem to be going wild over the stage The number of the stage struck is increas- ing every year. If the newspapers would only show more of what lies be- hind the tiuseI and what is concealed in the glamour they would do great service to the country
 MT. Beale said that the situation had become so that now when he goes into
  displays the fact on the hotel regis ter that he-is in any way connected with a theatr show. He used to do so and he found himself overbur- dened with mail on the day following his arrival. Most of the letters came from women and young girls seeking an avenue to the stage. Some want a position right away and others merely want to know what they must do 10 become actresses.
 MT. BeaIe said that he did not intag- inc that the stage bacillus had invaded Phoenix and therefore when he regis tered he wrote after his name on the Ford hotel register, Agent, French Mnliner." He came here on Wedres- day. On Thursday there were nine letters for him. Two of the writers said that they were married women and the others were girls of varying ages. Most of hen-wanted to make an appointment while others only ask ed for advice.
 Replying to the notes of the women, he set an hour when he might be seen at the hotel and he was seen promptly. He took the women to the hotel parlOr and heard the story of their ambitions. Neither of them had ever had any eX- perience beyond the amateur theatri- cal and neither had the slightest qual- ification for a histrionic career, but they were anxious to begin at once. He found that they had supposed that the duties of an actress consisted who'll ly of appearing three hours each night and perhaps now and then at a mat iEee before an admiring audience and drawing a princely salary weekly. No thought had been given to the contin- uous study and work without which there can be no hope of a successful! stage career.
 Speaking of the stage struck, Mir. Beale said that the ranks of good O. even fair actors and actresses are nev- CT recruited from their number. One in whom the reality is obscured by the representation has not the ground " ork for the actor and one cannot be stage struck unless there is such an ob- scuratiOn.

More Butter Used.

The consumption of butter during the
past season has been much larger than
usual. Prices have been somewhat
lower, the general consumer is generally
better off and more able to buy in guam
tity and the average grade of all butter
coming into market has improved. The
oleomargarine law may have had some
influence, but probably the improved
quality has had more to do with increas-
ed sales this summer than any or all
other conditions. Good butter goes
quickly, while poor butter is left on the
plate from one meal to the next. I'M
proved methods and increased knowls
edge of how to care for milk, cream and
butter is slowly improving our product.
Dairy schools and the suggestions and
teachings of farm papers are reaching
the individual butter maker in every
section of the country.
The increased use of hand separators
also is a factor in the improved con-
dition of dairy butter. 1t is easier to
keep the cream in good condition than
the whole milking. The skim milk is
valuable and because the young stock
paws better greater interest is taken in
the whole process. Usually an extra
COW or two is added to the herd and
more interest is taken in every branch of
the business.
Dairy butter should be the best butter
made because all the conditions are un-
der the control of one individual. The
best butter in the world is made in the
private home dairy by cleanly, painstak-
ing farmers who live we'll and take a
pardonable pride in having everything
about the dairy as clean and comfortable
as any other part of the premises

Indian mothers have method OF pre-

which, though 1t does not err on the
side Of gentleness, is etiicaclous. In
infancy children are entirely under the
control of Their mothers or nurses. end
therefore the Indian plan OF stopping
CRYING and preventing the formation
OF the habit Is TO cover the babys
mouth with the hand and at the same
time to close its nostrils till II nearly
suffocates Then II Is allowed to
breathe freely again, but should 1t re-

The Fruit Growers Convention.

Again we would call the attention of
the fruit growers of the state to the an
nual exhibition and convOcatiOn of our
State Fruit Growers Association to be
held at Skowhegan, Thursday and Fri
day, November II and IS. Fruit grow.
ing has come to be an important indus
try in our state, and is destined to rapid
ly increase in the near future as the re-
cent paintings come into bearing. Too
much, therefore, cannot be done in dis
knowledge of varieties, of
the best methods of culture, and Of pick
ing, storing and marketing the fruit.
This society is doing a great work in
these and other directions for this i'm
portant industry. 1t is the authority to
which all may resort for reliable infor-
nation that will aid in making the busi-
ness profitable. These assemblies bring
together consensus of what is known
in fruit growing as brought out through
experience in our state. This knowledge
is Just what is needed, and therefore
wanted, by every grower of fruit, and is
to be had by joining in the work OF this
society and attending its exhibitions.
This convention is purposely delayed
till the busy harvests are over, thus CIV
ing the opportunity for all hands in
terested to attend. Somerset county
will give the occasion warm welcome
and its hearty co-Operation.-Maine

Meat Consumed In England.

A committee of the Royal Statistical
Society of Great Britain has recently
been engaged in investigating the pro.
duction and consumption of meat and
dairy products in that country, and
while they find that there has been in
creased production, yet it has not been
on scale proportional with the increase
in population. According to its report,
submitted at a recent meeting of the
society, the average consumption per
head in Great Britain was, of meat, l2l.S
pounds; of milk, Is gallons; OF cheese,
los pounds, and of butter, 1S.5 pounds.
The amount of meat included 56.S pounds
of beef and d.veal, 27.5 pounds of mutton
and lamb. 36.S pounds of bacon and pork.
In addition, the British people consume
extensive quantities Of poultry, game,
rabbits, etc., which are not included in
the above summary. The average Of 10
gallons of milk does not include separat-
ed or skim milk or condensed milk, both
of which are consumed to an appreciable
degree. In comparison with the Cont
mental countries, England consumes
much more meat, but considerably less
than the United States and Australia.

The Care of Dairy Cows.

In the housing and care OF dairy cows
no country shows, as rule, in general
practice, any methods or conditions bet
ter than those of America. The average
conditions elsewhere are bad enough,
with opportunities for very great i'm
provement; but such improvement is be-
ing made as rapidly in this country as
anywhere. Nowhere else is there a bet.
ter appreciation of the Importance and
economy of abundant room, light, air,
dryness, comfort and cleanliness for
cows. One hears much OF the close rela-
tions between the dairy cows and the
families of their owners in Holland and
Switzerland, connecting apartments, un-
der the same roof, ETC.; but the stables
which are seen i'm summer converted in
to conservatories and rooms for weav-
ing and cheese curing are the exception
al and show places. Even the best OF
these when visited in midwinter, with
the cattle in place, are often found dark,
i'll ventilated, close, crowded and unsani-
tary in many respects, although frequent
ly kept clean. The construction Of COW
stables generally in the old world Is OF
the substantial kind, but with little re-
gard to light and ventilation, convenience
of arrangement or ease OF cleaning.
The labor necessary to keep them IN
decent condition would be regarded as
impossible in this country. The COW
houses in Denmark average the best OF
all in Europe, but they are no better IN
any respect than the average OF those
of the distinctly dairy districts of this
country, and there is here far more re-
gard for economy of labor management.
Danish stables are generally kept clean
probably cleaner than in America-but
at the expense of vast amount OF very
cheap labor. In other cOu ntries, as well
as Denmark, much attention is paid to
cleaning the COW stables, but the con-
clusion has been forced upon us that
this is done more from an appreciation OF
the value of all manurial matter and the
fixed habit of saving it than from any
knowledge or intention of cleanliness as
of prime Importance in dairying. This
is especially shown by the fact that the
COWS are MIXED in just about as careless
and uncleanly manner in Great Britain
and all over Europe as, it must unfortu-
nately be confessed, is the common
practice in the Uuited States. The very
general use of women as mixers in all
foreign dairy districts is decided ad-
vantage; they are gentler and cleaner
than men, and vastly better than the
average farm laborer, who does all sorts
of work during the day. Much attention
is being given, especially in England, to
perpetuate the custom OF employing
women instead of men for mixers, and
TO maintain the efficiency of milkmaids;
the popular public milking contests at
the dairy shows are useful and commend
able. Many parts of Europe have the
additional advantage of keeping the
cows in the open air. This practice
does much to insure clean milk and
pure products.-Year Book Department
