THE LORDS KINGDOM.

The Sabbath school children of Phil.
adelphia propose to raise $4,000 to
help forward Christian work among
the Italians Of that city.
During the last year more than q
million copies of the Scriptures were
sold in China by the British and For
eign Bible society. This was exclusive
of $4,000 copies in the shape of free
grants, mainly to Chinese students.
This record far exceeds all previous
records of the society's circulation in
the Chinese empire.
Gospel wagons, Gospel cars, Gospel
tents, Gospel bicycles and now Gospel
automobiles are used by missionaries
in preaching tours. Two pastors in
Paris have recently travelled many
miles in an automobile, from which
they have preached to the large mum
Der of country people assembled in
market places and at fairs, and dis
tributed leaflets and tracts among
them.
The Jewish community In France
figures in the Budget Of Worship for
1905 for the following amounts: One
hundred and thirty-three thousand
five hundred and thirty france, contri-
buttons to salaries Of religious func-
tionaries: 22,500 francs, subvention to
the Jewish seminary. In addition,
81 600 francs are allowed towards tho
maintenance of Protestant and Jewish
religious ediflces.
New York is the largest single mis-
sion field in the world to-day. 1t Is
estimated that only one-third Of it's
population, both Protestant and Ro-
man Catholic, is under Christian infiu-
ence. The foreign descent population
in New York is larger than the whole
of Chicago's population, and they read
sc daily newspapers in foreign tongues.
Congregationalism carries on religious

OPTIMISM STILL PREVAILS
Though Irregular, the
Volume of Trade for the Season
is a Full One.

New York, July 1.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
Though rejecting some irregularity
due to mid-year influences or, in some
sections, to less cheerful crop reports,
the volume of distributive trade is a
full one for the season, and industry
and manufacture show less than or
dinarily the effects of the approach of
the vacation period. Optimism as to
the fall outlook is the main subject of
notice, but it is to be noted that good
recorders for summer fabrics are still
active at some leading markets. Rela-
lively the best reports come from the
central west and southwest; the south
seems quite generally to hold the i'm
provement reported last week, conf
Gence has increased in the Pacific coast
reports, and the only important sub
ject of complaint is that the weather
has been too wet or too cool in portions
of the corn and wheat belts to allow OF
the best crop development and harvest

sen. MITCHELL CONVICTED
The Aged Oregon Senator Declared
Guilty By the Jury.
Accepted Fecuninry Comp ensation
for PracticinG before the Depart
ments While "a Senator.

Portland, Ore, July 5.-The jury in
the ease of the United States against
Senator John H. Mitchell returned a
verdict OF guilty as charged, with. q
recommendation to mercy.
The charge was that Senator Mitch
ell, while occupying his public posi-
ton, accepted a pecuniary compensa-
ton for practieing before the federal
departments at Washington, which, un-
der the federal statutes, constitutes a
crime.
Counsel for Senator Mitchell will ap-
peal his case. II, as Is expected, the
motion for a new trial is denied, coun-
sci for the convicted senator will en-
deavor to bring the case directly to the
attention of the supreme court Of the
United States. If possible, the United
States court Of appeals will be passed
over.
Upon being questioned, District At
torney Heney said he saw no grounds
for an appeal in the case, and he be-
lieved that the law would not allow the
senator the right of further hearing.
What penalty will be imposed by
Judge DeHaven can only be c%onjec-
tured. The statute provides for both
Imprisonment for not more than two
years and for a fine of not to exceed
10000. Since the trial began Senator
Mitchell has been at liberty upon his
own recognizance, and this will be con-
tinued until after sentence is pro-
nounced. at least pending the appeal for
a new trial. Senator Mitchell will still
be a member of the United States SEN
ate and will draw his salary as for
merly. He may appear in the commit
tee rooms of the senate and do his
duty as usual, but he al not, until the
case reaches a final disposition. appear
upon the floor of the senate and resume
his seat. This will not be possible I'M
less the decision shall be favorable to
him.

Trademark Law.

In an article in the Business World
of a recent issue, James Law Steuart,
a New York lawyer, shows the mis-
chievous results of the substitution OF
initiative articles of merchandise for
the genuine. In the long run he dem
onstrates that dealers undoubtedly
lose by selling the limitations. The new
trademark law is intended to stop the
piracy in commodities which has long
been practiced by irresponsible imi-
tators. 1t will no doubt help, but the
vigilance of the proprietors of goods
protected by trademarks will still be
necessary. In carrying out a fraudo on
a legitimate trademark, Mr.. Steuart
says the printer or the photographer
often unwittingly takes part by dupli-
eating labels and circulars. 1t is well
for the printer to be careful, for he is
liable under the law as we'll as the
man that is directly involved in the
infringement. Indeed, under the laws

responsible for such acts. In referring
to the n of getting the imlta-
ton goods palmed off on the consum-
ers, Mr.. Steuart says: 'The retailer
should stand for what is right and
realize that he can in the long run
make more from the sale of standard
brands than he can by larger profits
in but temporary sale Of the spurious
article The argument of the infringer
to the retailer is that he can make
more money because he gets the spu-
rious goods at less price and sells
them at the standard price, which the
original goods command. He loses
sight of the fact that the proprietor of
the original goods is always making a
market for his product by advertise
ment, while the infringer does not ad-
v~ertise, but on the contrary, Injuries
the trade by supplying an inferior ar
ticle. If the retailers could be brought
to realize the truth of this doctrine
there would be less substitution"

SECRETARY JOHN HAY DEAD
Americas Foremost Diplomat Has
Passed Away.
The End Came Suddenly When
All Thought His Condition Was
Improving.

Newbury, n. H, July John Hay,
secretary Of state, died here this morn
ing at 1925 o'clock.
The end came quite suddenly, as it
was reported that he was improving.
DR.. Murphy, who has been attending
Mr.. Hay since he came here, gave it
out last night that the ~secretary's i'm
provement yesterday was even greater
than the day before, and he probably
would be able to leave his bed by Sun
day.
Mr.. Hay was in his sixty-seventh
year, having been born in Salem, Ind,
il October, 1888. He was the acknowl-
edged peer of al diplomats in the Unit
ed States service.
Mrs. Hay and Doctors Scudder and
Murphy were at the secretary's bedside
when the end came. The secretary
babe goodnight to his wife and to his
attending physicians about ten o'clock
last night, at the close of one of the
best days he has had since his illness.
The local trouble was clearing up sat-
isfactorily, according to DR.. Scudder.
The secretary suffered none of the old
pains in his chest, which characterized
his earlier illness. He had been per-
fectly comfortable all day and happy
in the anticipation of leaving his bed
for the greater freedom and comfort
of a couch.

FOURTH OF JULY AT HENLEY
The Vespers, of Philadelphia, Cele-
brated by Winning Their Trial
Heat Amid PInudits.

Henley, England. July 5.-The crew
of the Vesper boat club, of Philadel-
phia, celebrated Independence day in
England by winning it's heat against
the best university crew competing at
Henley this year, and by making the
best time Of any eight. Indeed, all
Henley seemed to be celebrating the
Fourth of July. American flags were
flying all over the pretty Thames-side
town, and as the American boat swept
on to victory the Stars and Stripes were
waved from all parts Of the grand
stand.
The shores were filled with a record
gathering Of Britishers and American
visitors.

Profits of the Packers.

There has been a great deal of die
appointment because the Garfield re-
port shows that the profits of the
packing industry only amount to
about two per cent. of the volume Of
business transacted. There is no
doubt, however, that the report Is cor
rect. :
The census reports compiled by the
government in 1900, before the agita-
ton regarding the beef trust" began,
throw considerable light on this ques-
ton. 1t appears from the census that
the packing industry is conducted on
a smaller margin Of gross profit than
any other industry in America. The
gross margin of profit Of 81 fourand
grist mills in Illinois, in the census
year, was nearly seven per cent. on the
volume Of business. The gross margin
of fifty-one wholesale Strengthening and
meat packing establishments in ILL
nois was only about ore-third as large,
or a little more than two per cent. On
the volume of business.
The millers have not been accused
of being in a trust" and combina-
tions would seem impossible in a BUSH
ness where there are several thousand
mills in the United States competing
actively for the -four trade, but it ap-
pears that the gross profits of the mill
ers are larger than the gross profits OF
the packers. 1t may turn out that the
agitation regarding the packing indus
try will show the same result as the
devil found in shearing the pig: All
eQueal and no wool"

The emperor of Germany takes his
meals with his whole family, the chill
dren being allowed at the table from
the time they are old enough to sit in

King Edwards father used to be re-
ferred to as Albert the Good. A GER
tain French writer declares that the
present sovereign should be referred to
as Edward the Shrewd."
The young king of Spain comes Of a
long line Of royal ancestors, including
such rulers as Charles V, Philip XIV,
Empress Maria Theresa, and the in
evitable Mary queen of Scots, from
whom many royal families of Europe
are descended. He is now 19 years old.
King Edward wanted to see the big
gest diamond on earth after it had
been taken from South Africa to Lon
don. He asked that it be brought to
his private apartments in Buckingham
palace by a court official, but the GUS
todian of the gem respectfully refused
to allow it out of his sight. The king
was much amused at this, and rallied
his encourage on the suspicion evil

Public Trade Schools.
GRENADA, MISSISSIPPI.

When the United States shall come,
100000 of inhabitants, with a CORE
spending expansion Of development,
there Is going to occur a constantly
increasing scarcity of skilled workmen
II the control OF labor by the unions
should continue. The rules of the
unions in regard to apprentices virtu-
ally cut off any sufficient supply Of
workmen who know their trades. A
writer in Casters Magazine, a publ
cation devoted to technical matters,
calls attention to the approaching con-
ditions. He notes hat the introduce
ton Of minute division of labor, the
extreme specialization Of the classes OF
labor, and the growth of the large shop
as contrasted with the small general
shop have greatly reduced the oppCrtu-
mites for acquiring the thorough
knowledge Of a trade. Up to recent
times the skilled workers employed in
American industrial establishments
have been drawn as q rule from two
sourtes-the small shop and the immi-
grafton from Europe. But the small
shop is now rapidly disappearing, while
the character of our immigration is
quite as rapidly changing SO that
skilled workers a no longer be sup
piled in such numbers from England,
Germany and Sweden. The writer men
toned sees no other remedy for the
situation which is to occur in Amer
lea except in training schools man
tanned by the states. 1t is going to
come to pass that not only will schol-
astic education as at present be fur
nished to each individual at the pub
lie cost, but there will be public schools
for the training, sc that skilled work
ers a no longer be by one, all private
duties will be shifted from the indivld-
uals to the public, and such a system
onc started may go on Indefinitely.
The present trend of political and So
cial evolution is peculiar in the eX-
IRENE.

the general passenger department,
who recently made a complete trip
over the line, indicates that through
trains will be running inside of sixty
days.
while several thousand tourists
have already made the trip from each
end of the completed line, and we
have hauled during the month of June
over forty fishing parties from Car

day float from Galena to BranSOn, re-
turning on train in SO minutes, for the
complete daylight run over the new
line" said Mr.. H. G. Townsend, gen.
eral passenger agent, there will be a
tourist travel unprecedented over any
line in this part Of the country. The
fishing proposition is becoming so
well known that a number of club
houses on the James river, between
Galena and Branson, r now COM
pleted and are taxed to their capacity.

line are naturally the ones to attract
the most general attention, but the az

of this new region are remarkable.
