Children of American Revolution.

While the D. A. R. were in Wash ineton for the sixteenth annual Con rress. this younger branch was also in session. Although Alabama has as yet formed no Chapter among the children those interested may like to see or us progress in other States. The follow- ing is from The Washington Post or that date: President of the Children or the Amer ican Revolution at the annual election of that organization held in the Church of the Covenant on Tuesday morning Mrs. Frank Bond was named as vice. President in charge of the organization of societies, and Mrs. Charles Darwin was chosen to succeed Mrs. Henry L.. Mann as one of the Vice-Prestdents. and Mrs Job Bernard in place or Mrs Walter Harvey Weed. All other om- cers were reelected.
 Mrs. Darwin reported 102 active so- cieties and a number that are inactive, owing to the fact that the children have grown up and others have not taken their places. Twenty Presidents were appointed to organize new Socle- ties -..--s-

The collection or epitaphs and inscriptions forms an invaluable contribution to the history of the State and to that of some of Its neighbors, and to the genealogy or numerous families. In this sense. in- deed, the work is invaluable as it IS unique.
 The form and style of the book can not be too highly commended. It IS printed on heavy. fine paper, with clear and attractive type. the inscrip- tions reproduced as they appear on the graves and walls and many or them shown in beautiful photographs. In every respect the book would De credit to any publishing house.

To Produce 8 Sweat,

It was during an oral examination at a medical college. As the examina- tion proceeded the student who was being questioned got warmer and warmer. and the sweat broke out over his forehead.
 What would you do to throw a pa tient into a profuse perspration?" at length asked the examiner, If you had tried the ordinary drugs without eff fect?"

TORPEDO PLANTER
IS 70 BE- BUILT
VESSEL FOR LAYING MINES AND
PLANTING TORPEDOEs TO BE
BUILT ON COAST.

WASHINGTON, August 15.-San
Francisco doubtless will be glad to
learn that plans for building a tor
pedo planter, or mine-laying vessel,
for use on the Pacific Coast, have not
been abandoned for the present, as had
been rumored.
Through the efforts of Representa-
tive julius Kahn, Congress appropri-
ated last winter $4,000 to construct
a torpedo planter for the Pacific Coast.
On account of the increased cost OF
labor and materials, it was feared that
the sum allowed would not suffice to
pay for the vessel and at length it
was announced, seemingly with au-
thority, for the statement was accept
ed as fact, that the project would
have to ne neld up until next winter
when Congress would be asked to in
crease the appropriation allowed But
il seems now that this is not so. On
the contrary, Brigadier- General Arthur
Murray, chief of artillery, has recently
been giving considerable attention to
the plans for the new vessel, when
plans are expected to be ready for for
NAL inspection and approval in few
weeks. They are being made by the
marine engineers of the Quartermaster
Generals Department On their COM
pletion and approval, bids for the con-
struction of the vessel will be invited
