The sentiment in the Smoot case
is gradually veering around in
favor of Senator Smoot. There is
no question but that the testimony
of the church leaders has made a
deep impression on the Senate, and
this sentiment is by no means
favorable. There is, of course, a
wide difference of views on the sub
ject of the testimony. One is that
public morality has been so shocked
by the confessions of President
Smith and his apostles that there
can be bat one outcome-the exclu.
sion of the Utah Senator. Another
view, however, and one which will
hold many of the more conseI va
tive Senators, is likely to rule the
Senate, This view is that there
should be caution in Furnishing a
Senator for the delinquencies OF
the church TO which ne belongs.
The numeri cal strength on this side
of the question will depend very
largely upon subsequent disclosures
In the testimony. The fear of es-
tablishing a dangerous precedent is
likely to have an effect favorable to
Mr.. Smoot.
I here is some talk of postponing
a vote until the next session OF
Congress Both parties in the SEN
ate are disclaiming that the con-
test has any partisan significance,
and yet evidences already appear
that politics will play a consider
able part in disposing of it.

Surveyors Arrive

Engineer J. G. Hefty of the U. S.
Geological Survey arrived during
the week from Washington, D. c.,
and has been joined by Engineer
Geo. Neuner of the same depart
ment who came in on Wednesday
from California. They are stop
ping at the Great Northern Hotel.
The object of their presence here
is TO continue the work of survey
ing the International Boundary
Line. Owing to the depth of snow,
however, it. will be impracticable to
take up this work until about May
/, and in the meantime they will
run. a level from Bonners Ferry
down the valley to the G. P. r., es-
tablishing attitudes which at nu-
merous points will be marked with
metallic posts.
The survey of the international
Boundary line is being done jointly
by the U. S and Canadian govern
monts. The work is divided into
sections and the engineers repre-
senting the two governments take
alternate sections. Metallic posts
are established from one to three
miles apart. The country is map
ped for two miles on either side of
the line and by a system of TRAN
gulation, a record is made so that
if the markings should be lost it
would he an easy matter to relocate
the line.
K. c.. Barnard who is now in
Washington is the chief engineer
in charge of the American corps Of
engir GERS detailed on this work.
He is not expected out before May
1, and Mr.. Hefty will act as chief
until he arrives. 1t will require
about a month tn complete the sec
ton between the Kootenai and the
Moyie, after which they will move
over to a section CT the line cutting
through the Cascades.

Sweden and about so years of age.
He was a single man.

SOCIETY TO AID oENIusEs.
London Jews Start Organization for
Benefit Of Struggling Artists
and Musicians.

Philanthropic Jews in London have
started an organization which has been
termed the Society for the Unearthing
Of Geniuses. but which is officially known
as the Educational Aid society.
The purpose of this charitable body
is to prevent talents languishing, and to
help them into recognition. Many are
the qaint tales this charity has to tell
Here is one Of a Russian lad, pre-
vented from developing his talent as
violinist in his native contry on account
Of his creed.
The boy fiddled his way across Europe
ILL he reached London. Here he earned
his bread by giving violin lessons at rs
cents an hour. The society heard Of the
musician and the lad was put through
a course Of musical instruction.
Then there was poor girl, daughter
of shoemakr, whose gift for modelling
struggled in vain for expression. She
made slippers by day and modelled by
night. The society came to her help, too,
and she has jst won the first prize In the
art competition Of the board schools.
Among other cases helped there have
been six of exceptional musical talent,
"of whom 1t is confidently hoped the gen.
eral publiei destined to hear q good deal
in the near fture."
In another instance "a real loss to
the musical world has been averted" by
helping a young artist of IAN exceedingly
fine voice and great musical powers" to
pursue her studies abroad Several 9TH
er of the society's proteges will be repre-
sented by specimens of their work at the
st. Louis exhibition.

In their search for novelty the wom-

the monocle. the wearing OF which has
hitherto been regarded as a masculine
prerogative. They are, however, en-
countering some difficulty in following
the fashion, for every monocle will not
answer the purpose. In the first place.
the woman's eyeglhss is smaller than
that intended for masculine wear, and
considerable time is required to accus-
tom the wearer to it's use.
The milled eyeglass edge is an inval-
liable aid to it's proper adjustment, but
while the roughness insures certain,

Riotous Scenes in Chicago-Polics Are
Called to Protect Drivers
from Strikers.

Chicago, May T. Striking bakers
reached the riot stage In their fight for
higher wages Fride'. Scores of strike
sympathizers surrounded the H. Piper
company bakery, Wells street and North
avenue, early in the day, and attempt
ed to destroy the delivery wagons.
twenty-five wagons were in the barn.
A dash was made, but the mob stopped
the progress of the drivers by fierce
onslaught. Bricks and stones, clubs and
sticks rained upon the wagons. Hiding
behind the covers of the wagons the
drivers, who are union men, made des-
perate efforts to escape from the mob.
Police from the Chicago avenue sta
ton were notified, and wagon load Of
officers fastened to the scene. Upon
their arrival the bluecoats charged the
crowds, the stone throwing having
stopped for time.
. The police finally quelled the disturb
ance and the wagons were permitted to
start on the delivery trips. AS they de-
parted menacing cries followed them
from the populace in the streets. The po-
lice have so far made no arrests.

PUTS ASIDE THE
ROBES OF OFFICE
VENERABLE METHODIST PRE-.
LATE ASKS TO BE RELIEVED.
BISHOP MERRILL RESIGNS
His Ministry Has Extended Over a
Period of Fifty-Nine Years
His Extreme Age the Cause
of His Action.

Los Angeles, CAL, May Very lit
tie progress was made by the Methodist
general conference Friday, but the busi-
ness is being SO shaped and systema-
tized that with few more sessions to
clear away the vast quantity of prelim:
mary matter the work will proceed
smoothly and rapidly. The various
important committees held their
first meetings in the afternoon
at half dozen different
churches, and made fair start in the
business before them. The resignation
of Senior Bishop Stephen M. Merrill, Of
Chicago, was presented to the conference
and referred to the committee on episco-
pacy, with instructions to report to the
general conference with appropriate reso-
buttons commendatory of the great serv-
ice Bishop Merrill has rendered to the
church in his SO years as minister and
bishop.
Bishop Merrill's petition opened with
the statement that he was in the sew
enty-ninth year of his life and the fif-
ty-ninth year of his ministry. He said:
"If the general conference could be In
session year hence, it would give
me a chance to round out 60 years of
service, but as it will not be in session
then, must ask the conference to con-
slider the matter OF my retirement
now" Bishop Merrill said he had pom
dered the matter long and that he had
concluded to request that superannuat-
ed relation be granted him, to begin
at the end of the session Of the pres
ent general conference. When the aged
bishop finished reading his most in
teresting document, which described al
length his early struggle in the minis
try and his work of 80 years in the
general SUPPLEMENTARY, he was greet.
ed with enthusiasm by the delegates
and by the crowded galleries. The en-
tire audience arose and gave the Chau-
tauqua salute.
