There thz. Huntress will be formally turned over to the naval militia of Missouri, which will sail the vessel to St. Louis, the headquarters of the naval militia Of that state. The militia crew will have little experience in sailing the salty seas, for it will have to traverse the Gulf of Mexico with it's vessel on the way from Pensacola to the mouth of the Mssississippi river The Huntress is especially we'll adapted for river work, for although capable craft ol eighty-seven tons displacement i. draws only seven and one-half feet O. water.

It is likely that the assignment Cf the converted yacht Huntress for the use of the Missouri naval militia ala, will stimulate the question of water way improvement throughout the Mid dle West and South. The need lor a clear channel in the Mississippi and it's tributaries will become evi lent, and the sorry condition of a great number of streams will be brought home forcibly to the people of the richest valley in the world. Piesi- dent Roosevelt's trip down the Father of Waters this month is equa'y cer- tain to give the matter a decided im- petus. He will be accompanied by the members of the Inland Waterways in the early spring, and it is not un- likely that members of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress will ren- der every aid in their power and give all information as to local conditions. This organization has members in ev- cry state in the union, has received the strongest indorsement from Pres ident Roosevelt and is committed to the policy of a federal expenditure on behalf of rivers and harbors of not less than s5O,0OO,O00 a year.

Work oa Nsssle Language.

The work of reducing the Navajo language to written language which has been undertaken by the missionaries has received consider able attention since the meeting of the Conferen e at the Rehobeth mis- sion short time ago. This work has been going on for some time and good progress has been made. but at the very earliest calculation it will be at least five years before a dicti ,nary and grammar will be ready to issue.
 The Francescan Monks at St. Michaels are engaged in the same work and now have an enormous amount of manuscript for their die tionary and grammar and as yet the work is only about half through. All who are studying the Navajo language with the intent of making a written language and deducing the grammar state that the Navajos have a most beautifullanguage and that it has very regular grammar although many conditions control ing the grammar of the language are found which have no parallel in any known language and new rules to cover these conditions have to be marked out.
 It has been found by the mission aries that it is impossible to use the English alphabet as there are word sounds which can not be made by the letters we use. The Polish alphabet is found to be the best for writing the Navajo and it is now the intention of the missionaries to use that alphabet. Gallup Re- publican.
