Tomorrow morning Rt. Rev. Benja-
min j. Kelley, Bishop of Savannah,
will leave for New York.
AT that city he will be joined by a
number of distinguished clergymen,
and later in the week will sail on the
steamship Secilia for Italy. The pur-
pose of the trip is to pay the custom
airy episcopal visit to the Holy Father,
Pope Plus X.
The party will land first at Naples,
where a short stop will be made. Gil
traltar, the famous English fortress,
will also be visited. Genoa, famous as
the city in which Christopher Column
bus lived and once one of the leading
ports of the world, will be visited.
Some time will be spent in Rome by
the party. No definite time has been
set for the return journey.
Bishop Kelley will be accompanied
by Rt. Rev. Bishop Kenny of Florida.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-05-22

Rev. Father Kenny and Rev. James
Zeale, d. D.. Of Mandarin, Fla, will al
so make the journey with the Georgia
Bishop, Mgr. Dionede Falconio. the
apostolic delegate to this country will
sail on the Secilia for Rome at the
same time.
1t is not believed by those well ac-
quainted with the workings of the Ro-
man Church that there is any special
significance to be attached to the fact
that Cardinal Satolli VIII visit this
country in the near future. The fact
that the cardinal was coming here just
after the apostolic delegate left at first
created the impression that he was
coming solely to investigate church
conditions in this country.
This idea is not held by the Catholic
clergy. The Pope is thoroughly fa-
miliar with the church conditions here
and likewise are all the cardinals. 1t is
positively stated that Cardinal Satolli
and Mgr. Falconio are in perfect ac-
cord and that there is no undue sig
nificance attached to the visit of the
cardinal.

intrusted to them for the uplift of the
negro race.
In addition to the usual course OF
lectures, Dean Ponton emphasized the
importance of having good character
and urged the ministers to qualify and
prepare themselves to be good and safe
leaders of their people. He pointed out
to them that their progress is too Of
ten retarded by their own neglect and
indifference. He said the want of
unity among ministers is destructive
of the peoples best interest, and no
where is this want of unity more APP
parent than that seen in many of the
small towns in Georgia. There are to
be found from one to four churches of
the same denomination and in some
places are one or more of each denom-
nation, all pulling against each other
for the mastery of the town, when two
good churches would be enough.

The monocle, the method of parting

Our Bodies and How We Live. BY
Albert +. Plaisdell. 12-mo. cloth;
illustrated. New York: CHM & Co.
Price, IS cents; by mail, rs cents.
In this revision of Or. Blaisdelrs "Our
Bodies" the text has been thorough
ly revised and in many parts entirely
rewritten. The authors intent has
been to bring his well-known book
fully into touch with the latest and
best scientific thought on physiology
and hygiene. Many of the special fea-
lures of the older book which have met
the generous approval of teachers and
educators everywhere since its first
publication have either been retained
or made still more effective. There is
the same simple and interesting style,
the same careful consideration of prac-
tical everyday health, and the same
emphasis upon the use of simple ex-
periments.
In addition, the revised book is fully
illustrated with engravings and line
cuts based upon original drawings and
photographs: and the mechanical exc
cution of the book as a whole marks
an improvement over the older edition.
In tho Footsteps of Boone. BY Gar
rett NJ. Davis. Washington: The

street.
This is a historical romance of the
pioneer days in Kentucky. It's atmos-
phere is pure free and understandable
atmosphere of new forests in which
brave hearts have attempted to estab-
llsh themselves. 1t is a story of early
settlers and Indians; of woodcraft and
fighting, and of love and adventure. In
character IL seems rather in the nature
OF a revival of those delightful old
frontier stories, now too seldom met
with In current literature.

LITERARY NOTES

Working With the Hands. BY Booker
T. Washington. Gilt top; 246 pages.
New York; Doubleday, Page & CO.,
"a Union Square. Price, $3.50, net.
1t is fortunate for Prof Washington,
his school and his books, that he and
they are fads; which fact gives them
all a vogue that they would not otner-
wise enjoy. Not that Prof. Washing
toms work lacks in merit; he is, in
deed, doing good for his people. But
it is the cold truth that If merit were
the only qualification to recommend
Washington and Tuskegee, they would
not receive the rich largess of philan-
thropists that is being continually
poured out upon them. The fact that
Washington is a negro and that he Is
conducting d negro school along admir-
able lines has more to do with the flow
of benefactions in the direction of
Tuskegee than all other considerations
whatsoever. And Prof. Washington
skilfully plays upon the sympathies of
the "philanthropists" who have taken
Tuskegee to their hearts because IL
is something of a novelty; for which
he is not in the least to be blamed. In
deed he is to be commended for get
ting out of them all that he can while
the fad is in full flower. There will
come time some day when the milk
ing process will be harder. That time
ought to find Prof. Washington and
Tuskegee well heeled."

WANTS A RAISE
Contra Costa Corporation Is
to Ask Trustees of Alameda
to Increase Hydrant Rates

ALAMEDA, Feb. 14.-Notice has been
given the City Trustees by the manage
ment of the Contra Costa Water Com
pany that the corporation will ask
for an increase this year from
the municipality in the rentals
of fire hydrants- At present the COM
pany is receiving from the city 81
month for each hydrant in use.
David Morris, the local manager for
the water corporation, has notified the
City Trustees that when the ordinance
determining the rates for the ensuing
twelve months is introduced at the
meeting of the municipal legislators to-
morrow night, arguments will be pre-
sented by a representative of the Con-
ira Costa Company why Alameda
should pay more for it's fire hydrants.
OF the three cities on the east side OF
the bay, Oakland, Berkeley and Ala
media, this municipality pays the lowest
rental for fire hydrants. In Oakland
the rental is s. month and in Berkeley
81 so a month.
Last year the Contra Costa Company
demanded a raise in the local water
rates, but the City Trustees refused to
allow ii. At present the rate to pri-
vate consumers is 30 cents a thousand
gallons, with a minimum monthly bill
of ST. 1t is incumbent upon the City
Trustees to fix the rate before the ex-
piration of this month. and as the or
dinance will only be introduced to-
morrow night, an adjourned meeting
will have to be held to permit of COM
pliance with the law.
