A Comparison.

The effort on the part of Russia to
represent her war with Japan as a
contest between Christianity and
heathenis,n. has called forth some
statements as to the religious condi-
tions OF Japan, which are as surpris-
ing as they are interesting. and the
comparisons made as to the practi-
cal Christianity OF the two countries
are by no means damaging to Japan.
which appears the more humane Of
the two. while kischeneff is cited time
alter time as a crime which marks
the low grade not only OF the Chris
tianity but OF the civilization OF Russia.
A German missionary, reported in the
Literary Digest" says it is remark
able how many prominent men OF
Japan are Christians. To this creed
belong one member OF the Imperial
Cabinet, two judges of the Supreme
Court, two presidents of the Lower
House OF Parliament, three vice Minis
tiers OF State, not to mention a host
OF officials in lower rank. In the
army there are 155 Christian officers,
or fully 3 per cent: of all, and the two
largest battle ships are commanded
by Christians. Three OF the great
dailies of Tokyo arc edited by Chris
tians. In 1902 there were in Japan
55.S24 Roman Catholics, 26,oSo Greek
Catholics. and 46,6s4 other Christians.
But. as many OF the Protestant
churches do not include baptized chill
dren in their reports, the total number
OF Christians is estimated at about
2oo.ooo.-Ex.

The Northwest Relief CO. was SELL
ing coal at ten cents pailful. A
long line of customers reached to the
sidewalk and far down the street,
waiting and shivering in the bitter
air. Sarah Conley was almost at the
Office door. She was glad her turn
was so near. She was chilled, and her
breakfast had been scanty that morn
ing. Moreover, she was old and not
strong.
"It's hard standing" she remarked
to the woman behind her.
1T is that" returned the woman.
I'D rather freeze at home if it want
for the babies. They're crying with
the cold"
Look here" said Sarah, you take
my place! it'll get you there one
quicker" and she stepped out OF the
ranks and in behind the woman.
"Lor. that's nothing" she con-
tinued, smiling away the mother's
thanks. Her change of position
brought Sarah in front of a young
girl who coughed and shivered pitt
fully in the searching wind. Just then
rumor was passed that the coal sup
ply was giving out. The walters
pressed close. Sarah glanced uneasi-
" around.
You can have my chance she
said. suddenly. as she slipped back OF
tho sick girl.
Sarah did not look behind again.
She was 50 cold and she trelnblcd
from WEAKNESS. The slow procession
oi the line had brought her within the
Office door. when she noticed a little
girl standing at one side, carrying an
empty pail ard crying softly. Sarah

run round to the end OF the line
I've lost my money whispered
the little girl.
I'll hold your pail while you go
home and get more, suggested
Sarah.
There isn't any more sobbed the
child.
Sarah stood still a moment. Then
she slipped her dime into the girls

money she had. brt she did not say
30. Then She wen, home 10 a cold

MIR. RICE WILL RETIRE.
Annual Meeting of c. and I AssOciat-
 ion Tomorrow Night.

ion Tomorrow Night
 After four years of conspicuous service Alex Rice will retire from the Presidency of the Commercial and Industrial Asso- citation at it's fourteenth annual meeting tomorrow night. He has declined to stand for reelection.
 This will be the first annual meeting of the Association in its new quarters on Bibb Street.
 The attendance of members is always large at annual meetings, and this will be no exception to the rule. At this time all of the officers and the chairmen of various committees submit in writing d report of their work for the entire year. These reports are usually printed by the Association, and become a permanent and continuing record of the city's annual progress and development At this time, too, the Association will elect new offi- cers-a President, three Vice-Presidents, and four directors, to serve for twelve months.
 Mir. Rice will retire because additional demands upon his time in the conduct Of new enterprises with which he Is con- nected, will render 1t impossible for him to serve A new leader will therefore be chosen tomorrow night, and as the honor Is no mean one, much interest will be manifested in the selection.
 After the meeting the members will en- ioy a social repast before dispersing.
 The presidents who have served the As sociation are: M. B. Houghton, five years: Jacob Griel, three years; C. G. Abercrombie, two years Alex Rice, four years.

Recent legal actions growing out of a fatal duel in Paris between Charles Eberlot and Henri Lautier show how duelling is regarded by the French law, The New York Tribune says. Ebe- lot, the survivor. was charged with having by blows and wounds caused death unintentionally." Judging from the wording of the indictment. the law does not take duellists seriously, or 1t would not admit the supposition that they do not enter into the encounter with any deadly intention. In this case proof was forthcoming that the affair had been carried out fairly. according to the recognized rules of the duello- and the prisoner was acquitted. The family of the deceased took no part In the criminal prosecution. but obtained in the civil action, one franc damages and costs.

ESCAPE OF CONNECTS
A ATTORNEY GENERAL WILSON
 GIVES AN OPINION.
One Who Makes a Break for Liberty Is Not Given Consideration Tor
 His other Good Behavior.

Is a convict who attempts to escape entitled to any time off his sentence, provided his conduct has been good, except for the attempt to escape?
 Attorney General Massey Wilson has answered this question in the negative Under the laws of Alabama. the Attor- ney General says. convict who at tempts to escape forfeits all allowance for good conduct. The Attorney Gen eral holds that convict who escapes or attempts to escape is not entitled to the two months a year allowance for good conduct.
 The question was asked of Attorney General Wilson by President J. M. Carmichael of the State Board of Con- vict Inspectors. The man especially interested in the reply of the Attor- ney General was J. H. Jonnson, sen, fenced July 27. 1900, for hve years and one month. During his time in the nenitentiary Johnson's conduct has been good except that he escaped on February 20, 1902, but was recaptured on the same day.
 The law allows a convict whose com
 duet has been good. two months on every year of his imprisonment, Tn his reply to the President or the ron,,,ct Roard the Attorney General says after reviewing all the acts or the Legislature upon the subject;
 "It seems, therefore. that convict
 who has escaped or attempted to es- cape, subsequent to February l2, 1882. Is not entitled to any deductions for good conduct. By such escape or at- tempt to escape he loses his right to
 the deduction, notwithstanding for any one year or years of his imprisonmen nt his conduct may have been gooa' IT hts conduct has been bad during any .tr,a of bIs imprisonment in any other respect than an escape or an attempt to escape, and has been good during any other year or years of such i'm prisonment, he Is entitled to deduction for those years in which his conduct has been good"
