there, professional mon and society women,

souls goes on. Last evening the Rev. MIR.

soul-stirring hymns. many rose for testimony
and prayers-old men ana Young men
That is one OF the striking features OF this
novement-the effect 1t Is having on mon.
No effort is made to induce the converts TO
Join any church. Protestant or Catholic. IN
preference TO any other. They receive cards

omcer and Seaman Injured or the Rough
Trip Across.

The White Star steamship Arabic got
in yesterday after passage of eight days
and three hours. being somewhat delayed
by high head seas and hail squalls which
prevailed in the early part Of the voyage.
She brought two men, an officer and sea-
man. in the hospita al suffering from injuries
received on the voyage.
Robert Ward, the first mate, slipped on
the ice on the bridge on Tuesday and broke
bis left leg. The next day Thomas Downes,
a seaman attempted to c limb to the crows
nest without wearing gloves. His hands
we're frosthitten. He barely reached the
nest in time TO be pulled in by ship
mate.
James Sharman Of Halifax, England,
who arrived on the Arabic said that he was
travelling to cheat the doctors. This made
his seventy-ninth trip across the Atlantic.
He has made several close connections
from one ship to another and was greatly
worried on this tripfor fear that he wouldn't
catch the Umbria which sails on Saturday

Gum Shoe Mn, Humor.

The Hon. WILLIAM JOEL STONE, a
Senator In Congress from Missouri and
endeared TO millions as Gum Shoe BILL,
seeks to hide his humor under his solemn
Indian face. rich in vulpine lines; but
he can't do it. The resolution which he
offered in the Senate, Jan. 1. and called
up Jan IS, bewrays him.
The subject is the use Of money in the
Federal elections Of 1896 and 1904 The
first Whereas cites certain charges blithe-
somely made by "a prominent citizen
OF Boston, Mass. IN the second Whereas
the charger is Judge PARKER, "a promi-
nent candidate for the Office Of Presl-
dent The juxtaposition and the
language reveal Mr. STONES sarcastic
in tentions. His own prominent cam
didate for President was Mr.. BRYAN.
With delightful gravity Mr.. STONE
pictures the wild rush and crush OF the
apeo-puI' TO Mr.. BRYAN in 1890:
Apparently. and ! think undoubtedly. there
was a popular uprising which, under Nj. 1EYAS'E
leadership. promised 70 sweep al opposition be-
tore IT.
All of US who are old enough to re-
member 1898 will recall that tempestuous,
popular uprising, which began with Mr..
BRYANs appearance in the enemy
country and was checked, it seems,
only by conspiracy Of great financial
interests.
Referring to Mr.. RoosEvELT's recon-
mendation in his message of Dec 8, 1904,
that a Federal law be enacted against
bribery at elections. Mr.. STONE says
pleasantly:
THE President being an honest man and smart
inx under the sting OF remorse. and being himself
no longer interested In campaign contributions.
has resolved unselnshly 70 eIsn his sirsngth to
promote the public welfare In this behalf
In the peroration Mr.. STONE is de-
! licious:
i hope Senator's win VIC with each other In
| running this secuued treason down. Guard the
republic against this crime which strikes At the
root Of national life. Corruption Is like a worm IN
ths bud
The full beauty OF this impassioned
passage can be appreciated only in Mis-
souri,, where Mr.. STONES earnest labors
against corruption and great financial
interests are best known. So fierce was
his zeal against corruption that he
fought, tooth, nail and claw, the nomi-
nation OF the Hon. JOSEPH WISoATE

way of supporting the campaign against

humor We do him a service in inter

SIX Special Agents,

ANY reasonable plan for acquiring
fuller information as 10 the trade and
industry of foreign countries deserves
respectful attention. The Hon. FRANCIS
r. LOOMS. Assistant Secretary OF State,
proposes that six expert practical agents
selected from the consular service, be
appointed commercial attaches and sent
abroad TO study and report upon COM
merce and manufactures to the Depart
ment of State and tine Department Of
Commerce and Labor They are also,
it appears. to act as travelling inspectors
of consulates. hitherto holiday job.
In message to the Senate Mr., RoosE-
WELT approves Mr.. LOOMS S scheme as
looking to the gradual systematizing
and equipment of the whole foreign
service, by simple and inexpensive
means. as an auxiliary responsive at all
points to what may reasonably be e1-
pected of 1t by the great industrial and
commercial interests which are so deeply
concerned in charging their share OF
the worlds trade,
The grating of the consular service
upon the diplomatic service would be
an interesting experiment Would the
commercial attachG receive any great
actual advantage from the divinity that
doth hedge legation? Would he be
expected TO worm trade secrets, as the
naval and military attaches OF certain
Governments worm naval and military
secrets
The American consular service has the
reputation of doing, as whole, ex-
cellent work 1t is often praised by the
British and Germans; often ignorantly
damned by Americans. The LOOMS
arrangement might provide good places
for the most competent Consuls.
At first blush. however, il seems as If
Mr.. LooMIs's special agents would have

ground Look at this map Of their
territory:
One to cover Austria the Balkan States, Ger.
many Switzerland Russia, snd other countries

for special service and particular missions 10 any
ptrt OF the world
Can the most highly expert expert and
specialized specialist speak, with much
authority, OF fields so vast and CONNER
cial conditions so various? The six
proposed are to be a test, the beginning
of a staff, and at cost estimated by
Mr.. LOOMS as $4,000 year. Six IN
any commercial Power would be none
too many. And might not this staff OF
experts degenerate some time into a
collection of sleek gentlemen admirably
appreciative of soft snaps'f
