measure We're voted down, one after
the other at the conclusion of the ora
tory in committee of the whole last
evening, and at Z O'clock the commit
tee rising, everything was in readiness
for the final roll call on the bills pas
sage.
Among the forty and more amend
ments proposed to the pending bill in
committee Of the whole We're provisions
to cover express companies, the Pull
man company, telegraph and telephone
companies; to punish the soliciting and
granting Of passes, to prevent the use
of private cars, to compel coal roads
to furnish cars to independent mine
operators and many others, some mer-
itorious and some intended solely to
embarrass the prospective legislation.
The largest vote commanded by any
proposed amendment was upon that re-
lating to passes. Tellers were de-
manded on this, and there were nintty-
nine votes in the affirmative to 1877
in the negative. This did not by any
means represent the strength the prop
osition would have commanded under
other circumstances. for yesterday the
sole aim Of the friends of rate legis-
lation was to kill all entangling amend
ments.
Following is summary of the Hep
burn rate bill, on which the house vo-
ted today. The bill, according to Hep
burns statement, was intended to and
did. SO far as it could be made.
comply specifically with the recon-
mendations of President Roosevelt on
i, ~ 0n -
state commerce commission authority,
when rate has been complained Of
as unreasonable" by shipper, to in
vestigate the rate, and If found to be
unreasonable, to name rate which is
to be just and reasonable, and fairly
remunerative, which is to be the maxi
mum rate to be charged. This rate
so fixed shall go into effect thirty days
after 1t is announced by the commits
sion, subject during that time to be set
aside or suspended by the commission
or by the courts. After it has gone
into effect it is to remain the rate for
three years. During this time, the
opinion has been expressed by those
who have participated in the debate
that rate may also be reviewed by the
courts and if found to be in conflict
with either the act or the constitution
by being confiscatory, can be set aside
by the courts. Another important
feature, Is the definition Of the words
RAILROADS" and transportation in a
manner to include all auxiliary instru-
nentalities or common carrier and to
bring them within the control of the
commission. This power to name a
reasonable rate and inclusion Of auxil-
iaries within the jurisdiction of the
commission are said to be new fea-
lures. All other provisions are modi-
fications of existing law. They include
publicity Of railroad methods which is
to be aided by Prescribing system Of
bookkeeping and enlarging the commits
sion to seven members and increasing
the salaries Of the members to $780,
900 year.
The passage Of the bill was received
with ripple of applause.
The pension appropriation bill was
taken up in committee of the whole.
General debate on the bill was limited
to three hours; Gardner, Of Michigan
in charge of the bill. took the floor.

Presbyterian Church Growth.

Membership in the Presbyterian
Church, North, took surprising squirt
last year, according to official Stats
tics Just made public. for there was a
net growth of $4,000, which increase
was more than doubled that reported
for the previous year and double the
average for the preceding five years
Leaders assign no special reason for
this marked increase, 1t indicates sim
ply healthy condition of the denomi-
nation, which is reflected also in the
increase in contributions for benevo-
lent purposes, and an increase in the
number of candidates for the ministry.
The total membership of the Presby
terrain Church is now 1,15S,6G2 and
when there comes to be added next
spring the All members of the
Cumberland Church. the large body
will number 1904 .173 members, which
indicates from five to six million ad-
herents. The Presbyterian Church,
South, also had notable year, al
though its gains are not so large, pro-
portionately, as those of the older
body. 1t is a growth of two and one
half per cent. Home mission contri-
buttons in the southern church have in
creased, but slight falling off is re-
ported for foreign work.

A NERVOUS WRECK
Mrs. Green Gained 26 Pounds and
Recovered Her Health by Taking
Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

General debility is term that covers
a multitude of cases where there is no
acute disease, yet the patient continues
to lose strength and the doctors medic
cines have no apparent effect. This is
the decline that leads to death if means
are not found to check it. In n great
majority of cases DIR. Williams Pink
Pills will check it and restore health and
strength because they actually make new
blood and so send renewed vitality to
every organ and tissue of the body.
Mrs. S. A. Green, whose address is
Box 30, r. Il. ID. No. 4, Franklin, Ga,
says: "For three and n half years l
suffered with weakness and nervous
ness, complicated with stomach trouble.
At times L was confined to my bed for
periods ranging from three weeks to two
months and was under the physicians
care most of the time for three years. l
do not know the cause of my trouble but
l was Frustrated with weakness and, al
though L took IA great deal of medicine,
nothing seemed to give me strength. At
times my stomach hurt me something
fearful and my head often troubled me.
l was sleepless and what sleep did get
did not refresh me.
When began taking Dr. Williams
Pink Pills, 1 weighed but 104 pounds.
l knew 1 was SO bad that n few doses
would not cure me and had patience.
Soon the pills began to give me strength,
my blood got in better condition, could
sleep well at night and help some with the

think nothing of walking half mile.

ders for me and the neighbors all know
this statement is true"

The degree-giving habit, says the
Worlds Work. came to us from the
English universities. and the medieval
badge once meant something to edu-
Gated men. But now, remarks the
writer. it no longer has any special
significance to any body of men, and
men of actual attainment are quietly
dropping the explanatory letters that
are supposed to indicate their educa-
tional achievements. Nowadays a col
leSe graduate has spent from two to
five years in an institution where he
may have eaten a substantial intellec-
tual meal, or may have tasted instead
a vast number of tempting education
al dishes-or merely had good time
and hired coach to do the required
thinking. He may have entered col
1ege after a thorough training in a
good fitting school, or he may have
been accredited" by a perfunctory
school teacher, and have been really
unprepared for any higher studies.
Under such conditions the comforting
OF degrees is piece of scholastic
buncombe, endeared by tradition and
OF some supposed commercial benefit
TO the recipients. 1t is natural enough
that young people In college should
confound the taking of degree with
the getting of an education. But what
Is really more lamentable is that
American colleges seem unable to put
their stamp upon their graduates in
some more enduring manner than by
giving them little rolls of parchment
and the right to add some capital let.
tiers to their names.
