While the Young women's Christian as
ISOLATION clock indicates only a little over

our LETTER sOI.


OMAHA. April 3-To the Editor OF The
Bee Chicago papers announced the death
on Saturday last In that city OF Miss Mary
Louise Gilmore at the advanced age OF a
years. This event should have a more than
passing interest to residents Of Omaha,
whose recollections go back 10 the period
OF Nebraska's territorial history-from 1854
to ls67-during all OF which time the Gil
more family was an influential factor in
the official and social life of this city.
Addison r. Gilmore was the first receiver
of the land Office located I'm Omaha. He
came here from Illinois as the appointee of
President Franklin Pierce, and was an ar
dent adherent to the Douglas democracy
OF that day. stopping first at Bellevue.
with Governor Burt. Judge Fenner Fergu-
son and other officials, he removed to
Omaha when it became the territorial cap
ital. and where he died after the expira-
ton of his term of service about the year
1856. He was a man of marked character
istcs, with full sense of personal honor
and independence, and was a resolute de-
fender and practlcer of honesty and recti.
tude in public office. The name is still well
remembered here and in Sarpy county,
where Il is preserved by Gilmore station on
tlte Union Pacific railroad.
Mary Louise the elder of his two daugh-
tiers. well known and is affectionately
remembered as the first principal OF Brow
nell Hall, while that institution was located
at Saratoga Going later to Chicago with
the family she took position in the post
Office there and was retained in service,
under all changes of administration, to the
end of her long life. This exceptional ten
ure was due to the high intelligence, rare
fidelity and special aptitude displayed in
the work assigned her. In a long, patient,
self-sacrihcing life. given far more to the
welfare of others than to her own, in the
sincerity and devotedness OF her home life
and in her Christian character, she came
near to the ideal Of pure and noble woman
hood. She was an active and assiduous
member of the Protestant Episcopal church.
Besides that her life, her teachings and
her example would have been of themselves
a creed to believe I'm. to inspire and to ex-
alt, regardless Of articles Of faith. Her
many friends in Omaha and her pupils
scattered throughout the state. now better
wives and better mothers because of her
precepts and influence as their teacher in
Brownell Hall. will cherish her memory
with peculiar regard. e. WAKELEY

DEFENSES ARE INADEQUATE
Secretary Taft Surprises the Senate Com
mittee on Military Affairs
BUT ONE QUARTER OF GUNS EFFECTIVE
This Condition Brought About by
Number of Coast ArtiIIerists
who Can Man but one
Fourth of Defenses.

WASHINGTON, April 3--some surpris-
ing facts regarding the inadequacy of the
coast artillery force was brought out In
the recent examination of Secretary Taft
by the senate committee on military affairs.
The secretary presented data showing that
the present authorized force of coast ar
tillery is sufficient TO provide one relief for
only "a per cent Of the guns, mines, range
finders, etc, now actually installed or au-
thorized for the coast defenses OF the
United States. This is exclusive of re-
serves, supporters, etc, and is based upon
the actual number of officers and men re-
uulred II the entire force OF coast artillery
could be mustered i'm line and each man
marched to his position. j. was also shown
that this is an average shortage of more
than 30 per cent in the coast artillery COM
panies and that due to this shortage less
than % per cent of the defenses can be
actually manned by troops now in service
In case of sudden outbreak OF war IS
per cent of the coast defenses would have
to remain idle until such time as volun-
teers or raw recruits would be trained to
handle the high-power guns, mines and
position-hnding system, etc. This great
shortage is said to be due to the fact that
the pay is not sufficient to induce men to
enlist for the coast artillery. To obviate
these conditions Representative Hull OF
Iowa has presented bill in congress
which carries increased pay for certain
grades In the coast artillery that require
technical skill and increases the author
ICED strength by about 5000 officers and
men, This bill, IL passed, will increase the
authorized strength to 45 per cent of that
required for one relief.

WASHINGTON. April S.-Unexpeotedly
the Russian government today made an
other movement toward the reconventon
Of The Hague conference, when Baron
Rosen, the Russian ambassador, presented
to Secretary Root a proposal for the re-
convention Of the conference at The Hague
early in the coming summer and indicated
that The Netherlands government had as
scented to the proposition. 1t had been sup
posed that owing to the complexity Of the
problems involved even IN the arrangement
OF a tentative program for the conference
and the delays caused by the necessity Of
rersuading the Swiss government 70 make
the time and program for the approaching
Red Cross convention conform as far az
possible to The Hague project. It would
scarcely be possible for the conference to
assemble earlier than a late date next fall.
There were seasonable objections, however.
to such date and it was intimated that
It might be necessary to defer the .conven-
ton until next year.

The matter having been left in large
part to the governments Of Russia and The
Netherlands to adjust the first named, be-
cause the proposal for the conference had
originated with Emperor Nicholas. and the
latter, for the reason that the host should
be consulted when it concerned a matter Of
date for the conference. The fact that they
have agreed makes it probable that the
other signatory powers to the original
Hague convention which have accepted the
invitation to attend the next conference
will agree to the proposed date. although
the short period OF time available will
make it necessary for some of the powers
which have given little attention to the
subject recently to do some rapid diplo-
matte work in order to arrange programs
according to their own desires For it is
certain that this proposed Russian program,
as conveyed to the State department today
by Baron Rosen, while not meeting possible
objections, will at least call forth some
projects differing materially in scope and
detail from the Russian plan.
