baby. Every royal baby has hitherto
derived its early sustenance from an

Queen Eugenie's doctor, however, says
she is quite strong enough TO follow the
example OF the English Queens and
princesses who have been mothers. and
feed the expected baby in natures own
way
If the Queen does this. the services OF
the anna" viii be dispensed with. ex-
cept that the nurse viii be engaged 10

LONDON, March 23.-Dr. Joseph Par
ker's successor at the City temple, the
Rev. Reginald John Campbell, has just
achieved an astonishing literary feat.
His recent sermons, expoUnding what
has come 10 be called the new the
ology," were so much in accord with
modern scientific views and so little in
accord with the old dogmas that they
made a sensation The newspapers
were filled with the subject, and good
deal was cabIed to America about it.
Every clergyman Numbered back at
Mr. Campbell, and Constant Reader
outdid himself in writing letters to
every available editor in more or less
violent criticism of the new theology"
-Four weeks ago it was suggested TO
Mr.. Campbell that it would be a good
plan TO write a book on the subject,
giving a correct statement Of his views
as a whole. instead of taking any part
I'm the controversy that had been
aroused. The conversation concerning
this book as told 10 the writer by one
who took part in it was characteristic

High Water at Cumberland
Causes Slight
Delay.
Engineer Farnham Predicts
UnobStructed River
by July 1.
Old Structure Has PLAYED
Important Part in
History.

The high water at Cumberland has
caused a cessation Of work on the re-
mOval Of the old historic Long bridge,
but il is believed the river viii be in
condition for a resumption of work with
in the next few days. Robert Farnham,
the engineer Of the Pennsylvania rail-
road under whose supervision the work
OF removing the bridge is being done,
said today that the last piece OF the Long
bridge would disappear and the river be
free Of any obstruction by the first OF
July.
There are about one hundred men en-
pioyed by the contractor IN taking down
the bridge, and up TO the rise of the
river a few days ago rapid progress was
made with the work
Mr.. Farnham said there were com
parauvely few piles TO be drawn, and
they are around the Tenders of the draw
He did not know what means would
be employed to pull out the piles, and
that this part OF the work might be
done by the dredges or iLsmight require
the service OF divers.
Must Remove Material.
Under the contract all the material
Of the bridge is to be removed by the
contractor, who will dispose of it.
Ele old bridge is fast losing all sem
blance OF the structure which is so
closely associated with historic incidents
concerning the early history of the Dis
trict.
At the beginning of the last century
there were three bridges across the Po-
tomac and the Eastern Branch, and
they were owned by private parties.
The Long bridge was the first free
bridge given the people Of this city by
the National Government. II was first
operated in 1909. 1t was a pile bridge,
one mile long. with a draw on the east
and west ends, across the Potomac to
the Virginia shore
Partly Destroyed in 1914.
The southwest end Of the bridge was
destroyed in 1914 by order Of the Gov
eminent during the presence of a for
eign enemy. This was the time the
British burned the Capitol The bridge
was restored in 1916, and continued 10

Mr. Madden expresses the belief that
THE bane of the postal service is the

Mr. Madden attributes his appoint
ment in 1883 TO the efforts of railway
labor organizations, OF which he was a
member. stating that lie had had their
support all along in the serious con
hicts which have taken place. But for
their confidence and support, I might
have long ago been depOsed. the inter
ests affected adversely were so pow
erful."
The retiring official refers at length
70 the fight made upon him by pub
fishers. but says for these he has naught
but the kindliest feeling, although his
duty as he saw II may have worked a
hardship upon some publishers who.
while not intending 10 do wrong, did
take advantage Of the lax manner in
which. he says, the regulations had
been administered.

his policies and referred TO criticism,
both commendatory and otherwise, to
which he had at times been subjected

Mr.. Madden states that his principal
work has been in broadening and i'm

service, although the departmental
work has not been neglected. He then
continues: ''When I came TO the de-

Mr. Madden states that it is impos-
sible to estimate the increased revenue
to the Government from these reforms,

be corrected. it cannot now be said, as
il was at one time, that the failure Of
