ST. PETERSBURG, March 12-Father
Gapon was arrested today, on the eve Of
the inquiry demanded by him into the
scandal involved in the charge that his
labor organization was subsidized by the
government
M. Timiriazeff, minister of commerce, in
an interview, exonerates Father Gapon
from ali blame, declaring that he is an
idealist and man of force, and acquitting
him of receiving any Of the money given
by the government to NJ. Matushenski,
GaOOn's former assistant. Nevertheless,
his enemies intimate that Gapon arranged
the arrest because he feared revelations
and desired to throw dust in the eyes of
his followers by giving himself the appear
ance of being prosecuted by the govern
nent.

ular meeting day of the club. A picnic

wOrkmen Boycott Ballot BOX.

Feeling on the subject is evidently being
aroused, a proportion OF the workmen re-
fusing to participate and a much larger
body, the entire radical wing, belonging to
the social democratic party. is boycotting
the elections at Moscow. where about "A
third of the employees Of the factories have
refused to vote. This wing has adopted "a
resolution declaring that the national as
sembly is a mockery, as the election law
favors the rich against the poor. the land
owners against the peasants and the em-
ployers against the workmen. adding;
The purpose OF the government is not to
convoke real representatives of the people,
but persons who will obey the instructions
of the government. 1t simply wants to
see the national assembly to raise money.
The Russian people are more in slavery
than before. We refuse to participate in
the elections and demand "a constituent as
sembly, on the basis of universal amnesty
for the thousands who are now being ar
rested and sent into exile"

The ninety-third annual meeting Of the
Ladies' Benevolent society was held re-
Gently at CharlesI6wn, S. c. During the
past three years. the Society has conducted
a visiting nurses, work which seems to be
the most satisfactory work yet done. The
superintendent of H0rses reported 1856 pa
tents cared for during the past year. and
S17.ls spent. The society has 161 members
and is closely allied with the Associated
Charities of Charleston, this cooperation
materially furthering the work OF both or
CARNATIONS. AS early as 1914 the society
gave its aid to women In their efforts
to earn a living in such ways as were
open to them at that time. The members
collected sewing or put out their own to
women in need of work, frequently solicit
large plantations in the vicinity. A
woman's exchange and finally a needle
work guild developed until today the
society embraces several departments that
are working for needy Ones whether they
be men, women or children. The work
is supported by the membership dues and
by contributions from interested friends.
When the visiting nurses work was
launched three years ago the society had
in sight support for but a few months. but
the worth and value of the work was so
soon demonstrated that it's friends have
not allowed it to stop. The society is
proud of it's record, not only as one Of
the oldest organizations Of the south. but
one of the oldest women's organizations
of the country.

Mrs. William Thayer Brown, chairman
OF the literature. committee of the General
Federation Of Womens clubs, has sug-
gested the following questions subjects
for literature conferences, believing that
they will be suggestive of Improvement
to many clubs:- 49,.
Is an expert program preferable to one
prepared by members?
Should the purely literary club be a linn
tied club? 90 ta.
Is the club the place for serious study
or for general culture?
Most significant tendency Of this period
is the change in women's relations to one
another, Are women's clubs the cause?
Are women's clubs too strenuous in their
work? As rule, mems clubs are social,
and women's clubs are formed to do some
thing. Compare.

Views Of President Of Army Medical
School

Col v. Havsfd. president of the Army
Medical School in this city, in his annual
report says that Of the candidates for COM
missions as assistant surgeons in the army
examined, last year eleven were found
qualified In every respect and recommended
for appointment. Before receiving their
commissions the candidates passed three
examinations. The preliminary, before adj
mission; the graduating to obtain tho
school certificate OF proficiency; the final,
for commission.
Col Hazard says he sees no sufficient
reason for these three examinations and
believes 1t will be in the interest of the
school to reduce them to two, the prelimi-
nary and the final With that end In
view he recommends that the preliminary
examination be made to comprise the fol-
lowing professional subjects: Anatomy
and histology, physiology chemistry and
physics, materia medica and therapeutics,
practice of medicine, principles of surgery.
obstetrics.
The final examination in his Judgment,
should simply be the graduation examina-
ton, and therefore only include the subs
jects of the school course 1t should de-
termine, he says, the proficiency of the
students and those who are entitled to q
certificate Of graduation. 1t is noted with
regret Col. Hazard says that only one of.
fcer of the militia attended the school dur.
