AT THE CAPITAL.
Things Seen and Heard There by a
Times Writer %. A. C.. Corva1-
lis and Other Interesting
Matters.

Salem, January 26.-OAC is a
petitioner before the legislature for
woman's building, and will get
it. The proposed cost is $50, 900,
and large as is the sum, an econ
omica1 ways and means committee
feels that it should be appropriated.
The matter was presented to the
joint committee on ways and means
of Senate and House last night by
President Weatherford, Secretary
Daily, Regent Yates and others
of the board. The good repute of
OAC had reached the committee
before the board officers got there,
and there was little to do but ex-
plain the needs. That at least,
was the way it seemed for the COM
mittee gave no expression of what
it intended to do with reference
to the appropriation. 1t is surely
guessed though, that the final ap-
preparation bill will include the
full amount asked for the woman S
building, and that the structure
will be completed and occupied by
the beginning Of next autumn.
Rooms for the household science
classes, living accommodations for
800 girls, and facilities for a girl S
gymnasium are among the features
contemplated. $4,000 for a COW
cred drill ground is also asked for
OAC, making total of SOS, 900.
It is frequently remarked about
Salem and the capitol, that this is
a corporation legislature. Repre-
sentative Smith charged that on
the floor of the House Thursday,
and Senator Ma1arkey threw out
gentle hints in the same direction
about the same time on the floor of
the Senate. The refusal of both
houses to adopt measures restrict
ing railroads and other corporations
occasioned the remark, but may
not be justification for it. Thus,
Brownefps S eight hour bill was lost
was lost in the Senate by an over
whelming vote Thursday morning.
Only four members, one of whom
was Senator Avery, voted for it, to
the 26 that were thrown against it.
That. vote however, might not
mean that the senate is in sympathy
with the corporations, for the eight
hour law is one on which men con-
scientiously differ It is at best, a
questionable measure, and might
not bring what its adherents be
lieve it would.
The vote Oh this law, however,
was followed by another of the
same tenor, and the result was not
different. Malarkey had bill pro-
viding that railroad trainmen shall
not be on duty more than IA hours
without rest. He pointed out that
there were more than 10, 900 deaths
| and IS, 900 persons injured in rail
road accidents last year. He be-
lieved that many a time trainmer
after extreme long hours on duty
were often asleep at their posts an6
many a wreck resulted from this
cause. He made a brilliant speech
| in support of his bill, and was aid
ed in his advocacy by Coshow ot
Douglas, but when the votes were
counted the bill was overwhelming

DTS All Dead.v

A physician recently related an Incl
dent which had come under his OBJ
servation showing the aversion a GER
tain little fellow of 4 entertained for
dead chickens. On being seated at a
table upon which was an uncarved
chicken, he cried out in evident dis
tress, "It's all dead, mamma! l must
have hurted it," and he could scarcely
be persuaded to remain at the table
until the dead creature was carved
past recognition.
Children are naturally tender and
sympathetic, not only toward each
other, but also solicitous for the wei.
fare of the lower animals. The parents
of this child will probably congratulate
themselves when his tender nature be-
comes so calloused that the sight of a
dead animal being devoured will seem
to him entirely consistent, and will no
longer excite his pity.
Many of the boys in the stock yard
districts Of our large cities are further
advanced in education in this line, for
they consider it rare amusement to
torment the live stock before they are
unloaded from the stock cars. One
method is to poke them with red hot
irons until the animals give vent to
the most piteous outcries.
The barbarous custom of college
hazing is another manifestation of
this same spirit Of cruelty. which,
when implanted early enough in the
child's mind and then carefully fos-
tered and cultivated, will invariably
in due time produce a bountiful har-
vest Of undesirable fruits in various
shocking manifestations Of human
cruelty.

Rest means relaxation-not only of
the body, but of the mind also. In
America, particularly, we are apt to
forget this. That is why nervous
prostration" Is such a popular phrase
just now. The Germans, as a nation.
go more slowly than we do in all
things; the English and even the
French take life more easily. Perhaps
our atmosphere conduces to energy
and hurry. At any rate the popularity
of such words as Strenuous, hustle"
and the like. in this country, show our
attitude as nation.
OF course we cannot Immediately
change all this. We do not wish to.
Enthusiasm and energy. hard work
and hard thinking, have brought US
to our present state of prosperity, and
we cannot afford to fall back now Nor
do we need to. Hard work, whether
OF hand or brain, does not kill, but
continual work and worry do. II we
would secure the future generations
from nervous degeneration, we must
learn how and when to relax.
This is very hard for some tempera-
ments. Some people must have their
hands constantly occupied in some
way, and it is difficult, of course, to
remember that haste is often slower
than deliberation. We say that have
no time to go slowly.
A great fault in busy people is their
failure to relax thoroughly at night
Many go to bed and sleep, after a
fashion, but with tense nerves. The
mind should be as divested of worries
and cares at bedtime as the body is of
clothes. The muscles must be relax
ed. II exercises are taken at night,
they should end in few especially
for relaxation. Some of the most
helpful of these relaxing exercises
may be mentioned:
1. Stand easily erect, chest raised
and abdomen in, and let the head fall
gently forward, then arms and trunk
above the waist. All this must be
done without effort, the breath being
gently expelled at the same time. Aft
er little pause, raise the body slowly
2. Stand erect, raise the arms
above the head and let them fall
first the fingers, then the wrists, then
the arms.
3. Let the arms hang at the sides,
then slowly and gently swing them
from side to side, gradually letting the
head and then the body swing with
them.
Remember that your object is to re-
lax the muscles aud do all these exer.
cises easily and with as little exertion
as possible.

Breathing and Digestion.

The stomach lies Just below the
diaphragm. and portion OF the me-
chanical work of the stomach, the
mingling of the food and the digestive
fluids, is performed by the diaphragm.
which, as it moves up and down,
kneads the stomach and it's contents,
and so greatly aids digestion. In =.
dinary breathing in quiet perHon the
movements Of the chest arc SO slight
as to he scarcely noticeable, and the
action OF the diaphragm PRODUCES lit
tie effect; but by moderate exercise
these movements are greatly in.
creased. more than doubled, and the
stomach is energetically kneaded. In
this way. moderate exercise after eat
ing is beneficial. The practice Of
breathing movements is also very
helpful for persons who have slow
digestion.
Exercise out Of doors is especially
helpful. Fresh air. and especially
cold air. sharpens the appetite, and
creates a demand for food by burning
up the waste matters with which the
tissues are clogged. and preparing the
way for new material. which digestion
introduces into the blood.

CONFERENCE AT NEWARK
AGAINST NEW PRACTICE.
Calls Should Not Be Made by
CONGREGATIONS.

The Newark Methodist Conference began its
session in the Halsey Street Church at Newark
yesterday, Bishop Joseph T. Berry, of Chicago,
presiding. In his address the bishop protested
against the practice of churches calling pastors
and of pastors accepting new charges without
waiting for the action of the conference. The
bishop said:
1 wish to speak of practice which has grown
up of late. especially in this portion Of the vine
yard That is, the way in which congregations
are beginning TO call pastors and pastors are
accepting calls, without waiting to find out
what the cabinet and the conference are going
to do. The practice is a bad one and l am
sorry to see it prevailing.
have been a layman twenty years, and
have the greatest sympathy with those in the
rews. Nevertheless, recognizing as do the
great good done by the laymen in the support
of the Church must recall to your minds that
not Congregationalists. but have dis
tinct system of control. The cabinet and the
conference look rather TO the greatest good Of
the Church at large than to the interests Of the
individual congregation, and it may be that
some transfers that have been fixed will be un-
fixed.
Bishop Berry said the conference was the
largest and the most important over which he
had presided since his election to the bishopric
last May. and asked the brethren to help him
out. Every preacher in the audience, he said,
had an equal claim for consideration. The
Bishop read telegram from Bishop Henry
first five verses Of Philippians, which the secre-
tary, the Rev. Dr. John F. Dodd, did. The Rev.
Mr.. Dodd was unanimously reelected secretary
for his twenty-ffth term. He named the Rev.
Frank MacDaniel and the Rev. Frederick Bloom

ants the Rev. ]. w. Ryder, the Rev. j. o. Spar

the point has not been so great as it
used to be.
Formerly officers were located here
with full authority to handle all mat
ters that arise. As it has been during
the past few years, all matters of any
consequence have to be referred to the
Chicago offices for a decision.
The representatives who were sta
toned at Kansas City, after the gen
eral officers were moved away from
Topeka, are not authorized to pass
upon most questions but all matters
submitted to them have to be passed
on up to the Chicago Offices.
It is now understood that the gen
eral officers who will have headquar-
ters at Topeka will have considerable
have formerly had. It is the begin
ming of a new epoch, and the move
ought to make for &. great deal in the
betterment of Topeka.
The change is doubtless due to a
large extent to Mr.. Mudge's friendly
feeling for Topeka President VIM yI-
cheH of the Rock Island system IS also
very friendly to Topeka and the west,
and he has confidence in Mr.. Nudge s
judgment and ability.
1t was somewhat easy for the de-
cisiOn to be made to locate the mead
quarters at Topeka on account OF the
graphical position Topeka bears to
the lines under the jurisdiction of this
point. Topeka is almost in the center
of the territory, and the telegraph
facilities of the system are better at
Topeka than elsewhere.
The appointment Of Dan Cain as gen
eral manager of the lines of the Rock
Island west Of the Missouri river is one
of the first moves in re-establishing the
general offices of the Rock Islands
western lines at Topeka.
Mr. Nudge believes in the west. He
believes that future railway develop
ment for the next few years will be in
the west, and to meet this condition, he
