A UNIFORM INDIAN RELIGION,
Indian to BE Given instruction thu
viii Not BefuddIe Him.

Indian to BE Given Instruction that
VIII Not BefuddIe Him.
A form of Christian religion that will
not befuddle the indian is being arranged
now by experts in the Indian Department
at Washington. and is to be introduced
in the government Indian schools through
out the United States. The indian
bureau expects to have the form ready
for introduction by the commencement of
the autumn terms.
The new policy will bar sectarian in
huences from Indian schools. At pres
emit ministers of all denominations are
allowed to practice their respective creeds
in the government schools, together with
a particular kind of teaching and prayers.
The result is that the Indian pupils be-
come confused. They find the Lords
prayer read and printed in different ways
and different constructions placed upon
some passages of the Scripture.
Hencefsrward, however, after the uni
form religious code has been introduced,
only non-sectarian exercises will be per
mitted. Each denomination, however,
will be allowed to instruct Indians who
desire to embrace a particular faith, but
there is to be no more competition among
denominations for converts.
All Indian tribes originally had a form
of religious worship, which was adhered
! to with surprising persistency. The at
tempts to convert the red man, however,
have been unceasing since the first dis
c~overies of the American continent by
white men. The first white man to live
among the Indian tribes Of this locality
was a Spanish priest, who, with the In
tention of converting the Indians, came
into this country with Coronado during
the seventeenth century and remained
with the Pawnees. Eventually he wal
tortured and murdered by the people
whom he sought to convert.

SAY MOST STRIKES WIN.
Statistics Also Show Unions Succeed
in Industrial Battles.

Statistics Also Show Unions Succeed
in Industrial Battles.
More strikes succeed than fail and the
most successful strikes are those conduct
ed by organized labor. Statistics tabu-
lated by the Bureau of Labor, covering
the last twenty-five years, show this to
be true. In all strikes during the last
quarter of a century the employees were
entirely successful in 4S per cent Of the
cases and partly successful in Is per
cent, but in 81 per cent they failed.
Organized labor succeeded in 40 per
cent of the strikes called and failed in
80 per cent, while unorganized labor was
successful in "a per cent and failed in
SO per cent. Most strikes, Al per cent of
all. have been caused by a demand for
increase of wages. Recognition of unions
and union rules have caused % per cent
and sympathetic strikes 3 per cent.
Arbitration has been effective in bring
ing about a settlement of labor disputes
in only 2 per cent of all strikes and 2
per cent of all %lockouts, while joint agree
ments have ended 6 per cent of the strikes
and II per cent of the lockouts.
L the last twenty-five years there have
been 33,303 strikes and lockouts, affect
ing 7,444,279 employees.

A substitute for Radium,

A cable dispatch from Paris says that
a student of the Rochefort School of
Pharmacy has discovered a new radio
active substance, possessing all the prop
critics of radium, but which costs only
$3.50 per gram to produce, instead of
$500. which is the cost of radium. The
student credited with this important dis
coyery is named Andre Lancieh, and is
only 81 years old. He calls the new SUBJ
stance molybdate. The process Is de-
scribed as follows: When ammonia mo
lybdate is brought to act upon nitrate
of uranium a precipitate is formed, and
in complete darkness a white amphorous
powder is obtained from this precipitate.
After thirty hours the white powder
takes on a yellowish-gold color. 1t is
insoluble in nitric acid and forms a
powerful radioactive agent, having abso-
lutely the same action as radium.

parentace and blood when she married
the millionaire in 1874. They declare
that the eX-Congresslnan's. charges are
false. and that Mrs. Warner and her
two daughters will sue him for libel.
Mr.. Warmers allegations against his
stepmOther and half-sisters, Mrs. Ara
bella Warner Bell and Mrs. Minnie
Warner Mcttler, were made under oath
in the contest against his fathers will
brought by Mrs. Warner.
MS Warner began the fight to Sc
cure her Widows share of the 81 ESQ.,
600 estate of the banker. who died in
1905, refusing to abide by the terms
of an a~ntenuptial contract which gave
her an annuity of $500 and $4,000.
Size declared that her husband had IN
duced her to sign this agreement by
fraud and by grossly misrepresenting
the mOun of his property. Hence she
contends that the agreement is void.
The widows claim is considered SO
strong that she is said to have been
offered 100000 by V~espasian Warner,
executor of the will, and his sister,
Flora Warner McDerlnott. She refused
the offer, it is declared, and the
charges followed in an amendment to
+ the executors answer to the widows
petition.
This amendment argues that, since
Mrs. Robinson deceived her husband,
| the mounts provided for her in the
M~nte-nuptial contract are all she should
have.
Mr.. Warner affirms that ISABELLA
Warner is the daughter of Stephen
Robinson, an Ohio negro. The Commits
sioner Of Pensions claims he has
searched the country for aftidavlts
bearing out his claim. Most of them
were secured in Norwalk, Ohio, former
home of Stephen Robinson.
! The Warner will case has been the
talk of the countryside for months, for
the family founded by John Warner,
| farmer and former head of John War
| ner & Co., bankers, Of Clinton, ILL.,, is
| the most prominent in a social and
| business way in the county. Eespasian
Warner was 4 member of Congress for
twenty years.
ner has been a leader of the De Witt
County, Illinois, society. OF fine fea-
lures n gay hair, cultured and at
tractive in dress and manners, no one
ever has breathed a whisper Of sus-
picion against her name or blood.

AMERICAN ROADS MOST DEADLY.
United States Leads in Number of
Persons Killed on Rails.

hNhhA~N VII ANAAA
Herr Cutlery, an official of the archive
bureau of the Prussian railway admins
t@ration. has prepared a comparative table
of statistics of those killed and injured
by railways in various countries. He finds
that the railroads in the United States
are the most deadly. The United States
has more mileage than all Europe, but
even taking that into consideration, the
United States holds pre-eminence in pro-
portional figures.
Out of every 10000 employees the rela-
tive figures OF killed are: United States,
2G.1: England. 1913: Switzerland, 80;
Russia, rs; British India, CT; Belgium,
Al.
In the matter of travellers injured,
France holds the lowest record in the
world. The United States shows proper
~tionately forty times as many injured as
Russia twenty-five times as many as
Italy; as England, twenty; Belgium,
eight; Switzerland, four; Germany, two.

Fewer Failure. since 1900.

If the rate of business failures is .
good criterion. prosperity cannot be said
to be on the wing so fast. The record Of
5,6Oz failures in the first half of this
year, as reported in Dun's Review, is the
best statement for the corresponding pc
Rod since 1899. But the total of liabili-
ties, 500, 56S,662, is a little above the av-
erage, due to a few very large bank
ruptcies at New York.
