SPLENDID
.NASTERFUL SERMON OF MORRISON
Inspection Drill and Sham Battle YesIer.
day-Large Number Of Visitors
Present.

The commencement exercises Of
the A. aud NJ College began Sun
day, the principal event Of. the day
being the baccalaurea,e sermon by
Bishop II. c. Morrison OF New Or
leans, Bishop Of the Methodist
Episcopal church South. An at
tentive audience filled the assem-
bly, hall and heard the distin.
guished churchmaD with great
pleasure and benefit. Splendid
music Was supplied by the choir
and Glee Club under the direction
of Prof T. Z. Junkin. The SER
vice included prayer by DR.. |. +.
Belts and Rev. +. L. Shettles and
scripture reading by Bishop Nor
rison from the sixteenth chapter
Of Proverbs and the second chap
ter Of Second Timothy.
Bishop Morrison announced az
his subject, "The Man in Demand"
and selected the following texts:
"And upon the top Of the pillars
was lily work; 30 was the work of
the pillars finished. - Kings, 7:22.
Him that overcometh will make
a pillar in the temple Of my God. "
-Reyelations, 3:l2.
The strength Of the pillars Of
King Solomon's temple, wherein
much brass was wrought by HI.
ram King Of Tyre, was compared
20 the ideal human life. The
Bishop declared perfection to be
the divine conception, the lowest
/ point in the divine design. Per
feet manhood is the design Of the
/ Heavenly Father aud the earthly
/ parent a. we'll. To attain this, the
speaker gave an outline Of the
, necessary physical, mental and
spiritual development. He OPP
posed modern football, character
.izing it as an intercollegiate knock
down and drag out. In speaking
Of mental development be said the
time has come when a man must
think for himself or be servant to
the man who does think. The
man who thinks TO some purpose
links his thoughts toGod's thoughts
For instance, the ocean and cleo
tricity are Gods thoughts, while
in the ship and the trolley line
man has linked his thoughts with
Gods, which is, described in a
word, progress. The point was
made here that the christian ma
tions are the progressive ones in
the worlds development. II Is
emily by the touch Of divine inten-
ton that man becomes significant
and comes into harmony with God
. in discussing the spiritual life the
difference between morality and
religion was forcibly presented, as
we'll a. the interdependent rela-
tions between them The Bishop
said that while he did not believe
the world was growing worse, he
does believe the contest between
right and wrong was ever sharp
er than in this commercial age.
He pleaded for honesty, truth,
manliness and finally for a passive
attitude in the reception OF the tri-
ais met with in life, declaring that
adversity is necessary for the de.
velopment Of the tough fibre and
moral strength in the pillar Of hu.
man life that is crowned with the
lilly work Of noble achievements.

JIMMY GREEN FOR THEM
Organization of *. Q. Alumni to Boom
Him for Governor.

If the Democrats Of the state who are
alumni of Kansas university and the
students in the college who are demo-
cratically inclined have their say, James
W. Green. dean of the law department
Of the State university, viii receive the
Democratic nomination for governor.
During the Democratic festivities Of
yesterday it was discovered that more
than forty of the alumni of the State
university and the members of the stu
dent body were participating in them
and at the conclusion of the banquet
during the early hours of tEis morning
these K. U. men got together in the par
lor Of the Hotel Throop and perfected
an organization to boom Mr.. Green, who
is Familiarity known all over the state
as Uncle Jimmy Green for the nom
ination for governor.
They organized by electing Grant W.
Harrington Of Hiawatba as chairman
and J. W. Blood of Toronto as secre-
tary. They had not been organized for
a minute when the boom for Mr.. Green
was sprung and that it met with their
approval was evidenced by the fact that
the following resolution was adopted
with an unanimous vote;
Resolved, That we. the students and
alumni of the State university recogniz-
ing the Hon. James w. Green, dean OF
the law department of the State uni
versity, as a, true representative or the
best elements in the citizenship of the
state, and knowing that Kansas would
be honored by electing him as governor
Of the state; we hereby ask the Demo-
cratic convention to nominate him for
governor and we pledge ourselves to use
all honorable means in our power to
secure his nomination and election.
But things did not stop with the adop-
tion of this resolution. It was decided
to appoint a committee of K. U. men,
one from each of the congressional dis
tricts in the state, to see that the boom
for Mr. Green is pushed. The committee
named consists Of Robert w BIZ, OF
Topeka. Henry Albach of Lawrence. A.

Toronto, W. J. Luckey of Greenleaf, L:

people who are troubled with spells
of sick headache. She writes that
she had these spells about four times
a week, was Obliged to go to bed and
remain there from 8 to 10 hours

way for several years. and the at
tacks became more frequent. Doc

sick headache by removing the
cause. she decided to try one more.
and sent SO cents for two boxes She
said she had taken the last pill more

The shield itself weighs 1874 tons.
1t has nine doors in it. and through
these comes the rock. or sand, or
silt, or whatever the material
through which the tube must be
driven. Thirty men work in a gang,
and there are three shifts in a day
of "a hours. The record progress
so far is five rings. or twelve and
one-half feet, in eight hours. Men
of all nationalities have built the
Pennsylvania tubes under the Hudson
, negroes having done large part of
the job. Laziness is something the
contractors never had to contend
with; they say there must be some
, thing about the compressed air
which generates energy and enthus-
iasm for the "muckers" vie with one
, another to make the record number
of rings.
Perhaps there has never been an
engineering project in which theory
and practice were so nearly In agree
ment. The engineers calculated the
difficulties closely and a really re-
markable systems of reports has
been in effect from the first day.
, Every morning Mr.. Jacobs has
, known the progress made the day
before, to the very inch.. and the
amount of rock and soil excavated,
to the cubic foot. The Pennsylvania
railroad officers and the contractors
hold this perfect system and the
thoroughness of each days work
chiefly responsible for the prompt
ness of the meeting of the tubes.
Engineers say, too, that no project
was ever carried out where the en-
phasis was so entirely upon the re-
suits, rather than upon the money 1t
cost to otain them. Records have
been kept with unprecedented ac-
curacy and fullness and they have
been corrected, revised and rerevised
with bewildering frequency.

THE RESURRECTION PLANT

One of the first parties to cross
the arid plains of the west, away
back in the forties, reached the foot
of a mesa in Arizona one day just
as the sun was sinking behind the
western hills. The party had been
many days crossing the barren
miles of New Mexico and eastern
Arizona. 1t was at the close of a
hot, thirsty summer, and naught but
sand and desolation met their eyes.
Just after dark the rain began fall
ing, but it ceased a little before day
light, and the weary men, who had
been huddled together during the
shower, spread their blankets and
went to sleep. When they awoke it
was broad daylight, and the sun was
shining. They arose and looked
about them, and behold! a miracle
had taken place, for where they had
seen but illimitable stretches of sand
but illimitable stretches of sand
when they made camp, now were
fields as verdant as those meadows
back home. They had camped in
the midst of field of selaginella.
There are numbers of persons who
make living gathering the dry and
curled plants to sell to curio stores
where they are retailed as curiosi-
ties. 1t does not seem to matter
how long the plants are stored, they
will respond to a soaking and open
green and luxuriant in a short time.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Tunnel

After two years and half of con-
Ainuous work the eastbound and
&estbound shields in one of the 23
3bot twin tubes which the Pennsyl-
kania railroad has been driving un-
Her the Hudson river to connect New
Persey have met. Now men may
zEalk through dry shod from one
tate to the other. The second tube,
few feet to the south. is expected

heeting of the shields marks the
BEGINNING of the completion of one
I the most astonishing engineering
eats on record. 1t means the reali-
Rtion of the iong-time-dream of the
pennsylvania railroad-to land it's
ssengers in the heart of Manhat-
n island. Probably no feat of
ilway strategy in the history of
be United States has attracted more
tention throughout the world than
is one. Its completion will mark a
tumph over difficulties of tremend-
Ps magnitude, as this will be the
hgest tunnel ever bored entirely
bder water.
1.-THE tube itself consists of series
iron rings, and the installation of
ery ring means progress of two
ID half feet. Eleven plates and
key piece to go at the top complete
circumference, and an entire
g weighs about 15 tons. The
t-iron plates, or sections of the

successive hinges are held to-
fher with bolts. Hydraulic rams,
iced against the fianges every few
mes around the tube push the
eld forward at a maximum pres
re of S4OO tons; if the pressure of
air in the tube be taken into
fount the pressure upon the
eld in increased to 4400 tons.
