TO RESTORE HOLLYWOOD.
$500, 900 Said to Have Been GuaraF-

$500, 900 Said to Have Been Guaran-
teed for the Purpose.
A sum of $4,000 or about 100000
is said to have been guaranteed for
the purpose of restoring the venerable
pile of the Abbey Church of the Holy
Rood, adjoining the royal palace Of
the same name, a little outside Edin-
burgh.
Holly Rood dates from the twelfth
century. The exact year is uncertain,
but 1928 is generally accepted as APP
proximate.
According to the legend King David
| l. who was hunting in the neighbor
ing forest, was attacked by stag,
which had been brought to bay by the
hunting party. He was thrown to the
ground by the furious animal and was
in imminent danger of death.
Suddenly, says the Rosary Magazine,
cross arose from the ground between
the form of thebeast and the monarch;
and the stag, affrighted, fed. The
cross remained on the spot It's mater
ial substance was mystery to those
who examined it.
This occurrence was looked upon
as miraculous. In gratitude to heaven
the king ordained that a shrine should
arise ON the ground adjacent. He de-
creed that it be called the Church OF
the Holy Rood and gave it in the care
of the canons regular of st. Augustine.
What remains of the abbey is called
the Chapel Royal. 1t is only frag-
ment of the old building, but is yet
considerable, The portion formed the
nave of the great abby. It's walls
were lofty, it's windows tall and it's
western door of generous proportions
The carving is rich, though not ford.
The tombs within the abbey walls
include those of King David l., King
James II. (of Scotland), King James
V. and his queen, Magdalen, Henry
Lord Darnley and many other mem
bers of the Scottish nobility. The

Drinking Water.
The wise tourist will not leave for
his days run unless he sees that all
is well with the viands; that the bas-
ket is filed to the brim with the best
that can be provided and that in the
bottles not holding hot fluids an Ice
cold supply of water has been placed,
for it is not safe to drink the water
from the wayside wells or springs en-
route. The reasons for a well-stocked
hamper are manifold The first and
best is the possibility of long delay
that might reach far into the night,
with houses distant and inhospitable.
Then other motorists might be met
who were in trouble. Again, these
things come in well as a reward to
some peasant who has rendered a
slight service.
Either behind the hampers or
strapped in front of them, or else on
roof, is the inevitable extra shoe, and
several inner tubes" are slowed

advisable.
Roads Carefully Described.
The man who has never made mo-
tor trip through Europe can do so
easily with a set of guide books,
which come for the motorist in such
perfected detail that France alone has
twelve volumes of maps, with every
little road designated carefully and a
snort resume of the historical facts or

CAUSES or DEPENDENCY.
Sub ject Discussed at Minneapolis Con-
vention.

Minneapolis, June 14.-"Relations
Existing Between Defective Character
and Dependence" was the subject of
paper read by w. HI. McClain, man.
ager OF the st. Louis Provident asso-
citation, before the national conference
OF charities and corrections now In
session In Minneapolis.
'Inefficiency, either voluntary or In
voluntary, may be stated as cause,
II not the cause, of dependency. In
voluntary inefficiency may be caused
by environment, heredity or unjust
social conditions; voluntary ineffi-
cheney may be due to lack of will
power. Intemperance, fostered by
public license, is also the cause OF
much inefficiency.
Yet 1t appears that drink leads to
crime rather than poverty. 1t Is well
said that If every saloon, brewery and
distillery were wiped out we would
still have the poor with us. 1t Is
rather from the degenerate offspring
Of drunken parents that the ranks OF
poverty are recruited.
Improvidence, shiftlessness, i'm
morality and ignorance should all be
listed as causes Of poverty and de-
pendence. Perhaps the most powerful
Of these Is immortality, which Is, ac-
cording to Warner more prevalent
than intemperance. Stupidity also
plays its part as a cause of depend
ency
I'VE may conclude, therefore, that
whatever the cause of dependence the
relation of the dependent to society
may be changed for the better by
changing his location, his associates,
his occupation or by improving his
education, habits or personal appear
ance."
Statistics furnished the matter of
discussion at the afternoon session.

in command of the Black sea fleet, has
sifted out and arrested the disaffected
seamen at that port and placed 200 OF
them on board cruiser under strong
guard of the Pragski regiment. Addi-
tional arrests are being made and 1t
probably will be necessary to fit out
another penal cruiser. The seamen OF
the feet are exasperated because no
charges have been preferred against
the arrested men and it Is said that a

NEED FINANCIAL AID
J. ]. Hin Says the Government
Must Assist the Railroads.
LATTER's CREDIT IS RUINED
Unable 70 Borrow Necessary Funds to
Extend Mileage and Furnish Addi-
tional Equipment Demanded by the
country's euslnsss.

New York, June 14.-That the ma
tional government will be forced to
lend It's credit to finance the needs OF
the railroads OF the country was the
statement made by James J. Hill In
an interview here.
The public In its exasperation,"
said Mr.. Hill, will demand that the
railroads shall lay certain rails and
provide more cars. The railroads will
answer that they cannot; that their
credit has been ruined. The govern
ment will be obliged to step in and
lend its credit to supply this de-
ficicncy. The situation might lead to
government ownership of railroads.
That would be the end of republican
government.
"The cause Of the trouble Is that
the business OF the United States has
outgrown the capacity OF its railroads
and the railroads are in no position to
catch up. IL men cannot get their
freight moved they must cease to pro-
duce 1t. II does not appear any easier
for railroad to get money now than
Ii was few months ago. ! know OF

Concerning the general business out

There Is general slowing up In
business. 1t appeared inevitable last
fall. 1t came and | believe it will con
tinue. l don't think 1t will hurt any
body, but that It exists there Is nc
doubt"
Mr.. Hill said his railroad lines had
been troubled, as have other roads, by
excessive breakage OF steel rails. 1.-THE
past spring and winter have been the
WORST ON I0COTu lOT Tdli OIedhdSSS,
said Mr.. Hill. 1T has been said that
the evil could be remedied by the ex
elusive use of open hearth rails. II II
