A NOTABLE RELIGIOUS EVENT.
Cornerstone of an Episcopal Cathe
dral Is Laid at Washington.

Washington, d. C. - Sunday wit
messed two events here of general In.
terest to the religious world at large
and especially to the Episcopal
church.
The first and chief of these events
was the laying of the foundation
stone of the Cathedral of SITS. Peter
and Paul at Mount st. Alban, Wiscon.
sin avenue. The other was the great
open air service on the same grounds,
under the auspices of the information.
al convention of the Brotherhood of
st. Andrew, which brought to close
the convention which has been in ses.
sion here for the past week.
With ceremony and solemnity, the
foundation stone of what promises to
equal in point of architecture and out
lay the most magnificent cathedral in
the world was laid, in the presence of
about $4,000 people.
1t was notable occasion, made
more so by the presence of the presi.
dent of the United States and the
bishop of London.
President Roosevelt was among
the early arrivals and occupied the
chair of Bishop Satterlee, who presid-
ed. This chair, the property of Bishop
Satterlee, was brought to this coun.
try from England some 400 years ago.
To the presidents right sat Arch
bishop Nuttall, while on his left was
Bishop Satterlee. The ceremony be-
gan with the procession of 300 choir
boys, followed by the bishops, the
clergy, the cathedral chapter, the
cathedral council, and the Marine
band playing Mendelsohn's Hymn of
Praise" which was sung by the choir
as the procession marched into the
ampitheater and took seats.
The religious service began with
prayer by Rev. McKim, of the Church
of the Epiphany, following upon
which Bishop Satterlee announced
the object of the occasion. Next
came Scripture readings and prayers
by bishops, interspersed with selec-
tions by the Marine band. Then
Bishop Satterlee performed the cere-
mony of laying the foundation stone.
The trowel was the one used In lay
ing the foundation stone of the CAPT
tol building and the gavel was used
by George Washington.
The ceremony of laying the founda-
ton stone completed, Bishop Saterlee
introduced President Roosevelt.

PAY IN ARMY AND NAVY.
Present Rate Was Established Nearly
Forty Years Ago.

The present rates of army pay we're
established nearly 40 years ago, and
the pay of the navy is based upon
that for the army. When the law was
enacted (1S70) the allowance was am
pie. 1t may be assumed, though, that
congress then provided nothing in ex-
cess of the reasonable needs of the
service at that time, In the meantime
the development of the country and
commercial conditions, not confined to
our own country alone, have caused
the cost of living, cost of travelling
cost of education, cost of clothing and
amusements to be all nearly doubled;
in some of the items mentioned to be
quadrupled.
Stonemasons, bricklayers, carpen-
ters and other skilled mechanics are
receiving at present about six dollars
per day. That is the exact amount
paid 20 captain in the United States
army after he has been in the military
service less than Is years. 1t is neat
ly double the amount paid to a second
lieutenant. A glance over the army
list shows that over two-thirds of the
officers are receiving less pay per day
than good mechanics receive in civil
life.
He has no home, but must be pre-
pared to live in the arctics or the
tropics and change from one to the
other at short notice. He must have
equipment for both and while in one
place the equipment for the other is
stored and deteriorating. He is sent
on long journeys to distant stations
and must suffer banishment from his
family or take them along-either is
a great expense; on one hand for
travel and on the other for mainte-
nance of two establishments. His
changes Of station are so frequent
that he must put his children in costly,
private schools or see them grow up
in ignorance. Because he is an officer
of the United States service, to use
the responsibility of his position to
add to his income, commercially, is re-
garded as reprehensible and if he
makes an investment he must intrust
his interests to an agent.

overdraft on His Patience.

Private" John Allen tells some
good stor es of man in Jackson,
Miss, who, so far as his financial no.
tion5 go, is of the type made famous
by Colonel Carter of Gainesville"
The cashier of the bank at Jackson,
with which the Mississippian did
business, one day very politely init
mated that gentlemans account
was overdrawn. Thanking him for
the information, the Jackson man left
the building, promising that the stu.
alton would be remedied the following
day. But nothing was heard from
him then, nor for some weeks after
Then, when the cashier had an oppor-
tunity TO do so, he again referred to
the matter remarking that the gen.
tleman was now even further indebted
the polite assurance that the matter
was to be adjusted that day; and
again did the Jackson man fail to
keep his promise.
On his next visit to the bank the
president himself took occasion to call
the depositor's attention to the situa-
tion.
The Mississippian became very in
dignant. Look here, sir" he ex-
claimed, this makes the third time
the officials of this bank have pestered
me about that measly overdrawn ac-
count. If you don't quit bothering me
about it I'll take it to another bank!"

non, who permitted the express to
take the track upon which the freight
train was approaching from the oppo.
site direction, says that a short time
before the Chicago train was due he
saw number of foreigners working
with the switch to the track the
freight was on, while, at the same
time, he called up Bellaire by tele.
phone and was told that the freight
had left. Just as he hung up the re-
ceiver he heard the crash.
Engineer H. A. Lipscomb, on the
passenger train underwent a heroic
surgical operation. Caught beneath
his engine. it was found impossible to
remove the broken iron from his body
on account of the way in which one of
his legs was entangled. Escaping
steam across his face made it impos-
sible to administer an anesthetic and
the physicians amputated the leg as
he lay there unconscious. Despite
the burning steam and the pain of the
operation he bore it bravely.

AS wits, theologians, politicians
and writer's. the women of a hundred
and fifty or sixty years ago were GER
tainly in advance of those of today;
yet apparently they had no wish to
push man from his proper place, says
a writer. They made good mothers,
they were excellent housewives, they
were socially charming, they managed
to be personally attractive. In many
directions they had the advantage
of us.
