London, July 9.-The luncheon given to-
day at the House of Commons by Sir
Benjamin Stone. In honor Of Mark Twain,
at which ex-Prime Minister Balfour and
Baron Komura were guests Of honor, was
incidentally marked by significant ex-
preston on international relations
Baron Komura. in a brief speech. in
dicative of Japan's official attitude to-
ward America. said he was delighted and
hOnored TO be present at a gathering
which was representative Of three great
nations-England, America, and Japan.
He added:
IF these three nations can but stand
together, they viii guarantee the peace
of the world"
Balfour in his speech quoted Mark
Twain's remark at the Savage Club re-
garding the necessity for guarding the
purity Of the English language, and urged
that it was the duty of present writer's
TO hand over to posterity the language in
as good, if not better, condition than
they found It.
He deplored the modern tendency TO
hastily employ slang phrases. and while
for the use of word should be its en-
ployment by man who had been dead
100 years, still he maintained that new
phrases. particularly those tinged with
vulgarism, should only be admitted with
the greatest caution and after the Sc
VereSt tests.
Mark Twain was in his happiest vein.
He thanked Balfour for his recognition Of
his services in keeping the English Ian
guage pure and undefiled. and assured
him that he would not allow it to de-
teriOrate in his hands. He told his hear
ers how appTeciative he was of the at
tentions and hOnOrs shOWered on him IN
England
He said that tonight was one Of the
prOudest moments in his life, as a dinner
by Punch IN Punchs rooms implied
recognition Of his humor by his colleagues
IN the humor line. which he had not an
tcipated, and which delighted him.
The party numbered twenty-fOur Sir
Benjamin Stone afterWard photographed

Paul Morton Declines to Talk,
The Paris correspondent OF the Tribune
tried to interview Paul Morton on the
transferrence Of the American battle ship
feet to the Pacific. Mr. Morton replied
that It would be inadvisable for him. as
ex-Secretary Of the Navy TO say any
thing on the subject, but he did say that
the American navy is the greatest ex-
hibit the United States has for peace"
The Hague Interested.
The Hague correspondent OF the Tele-
graph sends more than column Of mat
ter on the relations between Japan and
the United States as viewed by the dele
gates there.
He begins by saying that it is not too
much TO assert that al the diplomats at
The Hague are more interested in the
situation between the United States and
Japan than In the conference. and he
quotes the views Of a friendly diplomatist
who was commissioned to inquire into the
subject. This dlplOmat.st declares that the
situation is really strained. The press is
not well informed as to the actual state Of
affairs, because the japanese and Ameri-
can governments conceal the true posi-
ton, which is unQuestonably serious.

deavor rally was held at the Con.

spending a few days visiting the
Endeavor societies in Oregon in
behalf of the great Internation-
al C. E. convention to be held in
Seattle July 1O-15.
Rev. Lingenfelter proved to be
a forceful and entertaining
speaker. In the invitation he
extended from the Seattle En-
deavorers there was a ring Of
sincerity that made everyone
feel that his presence was de-
sired at the convention.
The speaker mentioned the
beauties of Seattle and surround
ings, excursions that have been
planned, but most of all, the op-
portunity to hear men of world
wide fame as an incentive to at
tendance.
At the close of the address the
audience arose and gave the
speaker the Endeavorers' salute.
A solo was sung by Rev. T. S.
Handsaker and a song by the
male chorus of the Ch ristian
church.

refreshments were served and
an informal reception given by
the local Endeavorers.
