ORIGIN OF IDAHO EXPLAINED.
Emigrant Pioneer Would Call for Little Girl, "Ida, Ida, Iday She
 Would ReDly. "HO."

Moscow. Idaho.-Con Doty of Bay horse, Idaho. submits the following to a North Idaho paper as his idea of the origin and significance of "Idaho:''
 Tn 1861 President Lincoln appointed a man by the name of Fitch captain over an emigrant train: The train started from St Paul, Minn., and vas bound for Walla Walla via the north ern route (Mullan road). At this fma the Indians were restless, and weak or small parties were forbidden to travel until a certain number of wag- ons were In a train: then a captain had to be selected before the train was allowed to move. The train consisted of 1l4 wagons. Fitch was captain He had little daughter named Ida. Idas mother was dead. Little Ida ac- companied her father to Walla Walla. Captain Fitch did not like to have Ida out of his sight much, so when Fitch would lose sight of Ida he would call Ida, Ida, Ida! She would answer by saying, 'Ho" Soon the train people gave the girl the name of Idaho. The name pleased Captain Fitch and little Ida returned to St. Paul.
 Afterwards Captain Fitch went to Washington City. When Congress created the territory of Idaho. Captain Fitch suggested the name of Idaho for the new territory. The same was accepted and little Ida Fitch was i'm mortaliZed
 At one time the writer was person. ally acquainted with Captain Fitch and little Ida. but at this writing cannot re call the captains first name. This statement is authentic and can be re- lied upon. I can find no authority that the word Idaho signifies mountain gem or gem of mountains"

Indianapolis, Ind, July IA mass meeting at Tomlinson Hall tonight wound up the first day of the sixth an- nual session of the American Fedora tion of Catholic Societies. In the morning the delegates and visitors at- tended pontifical high mass at St. Pe- ter and St. Paul's Cathedral. Right Rev. Francis Silas Chatard, Bishop of Indianapolis, presided at the night meeting. The notable feature was the appearance of His Excellency, Most Rev. Diomede Falconio. Apostolic Dele- gate to the United States. In a strong Italian accent. he bade the delegates to work together. because in union there is strength"
 Mayor Charles A. Bookwalter wei comed the delegates and visitors to .he city, and then introduced National President Edward Feenie of Brooklyn. N. r.. who responded in a happy vein.
 Right Rev. Joseph Schrembs. in the principal address of the evening, took for his subject Christ and the Twen- tieth Century,"
 When I propose to speak to this great gathering tonight" said the speaker. lon Christ and the Twentieth Century, it Is not my purpose to de- nounce the present age but rather to show how our country needs Christ and Christ's spirit to bring. it to its fullest perfection"
 Rev. Father Schrembs then dwelt at length on the achievements of the twentieth century and said:
 Religion and its teachings and pre- cepts are treated as the superstitition. of gone-by age. The swaddline clothes of mankind. which, having beer outgrown. may now be thrown aside as useless-yea, as harmful to true pro. gress. The church of Jesus Christ is the central point of attack, and loude, than ever is the cry raised Ecrasez rinfame.'
 "The research of modern historians has wrought havoc with many accept ed stories of antiquity" said the Rev. Schrembs. and many are the fond nar- ratives that have fallen under the mighty blow of its destructive ham, mer. One short period alone has been able to withstand the terrible on slaught and that is the period from the year One to the year Thirty-three What do we find here? In spite of all the combined efforts of the enemies ot religion. in spite of the fearful tun- nellings of the highest of the higher critics. we behold the sublime image of Jesus Christ in the undiminished splendor of historic certainty an6 crowned with indestructible diadem o1 His divinity. Jesus Christ yesterday today and forever.
 Christ Is and ever will remain the greatest educator. the only Savior of the world. To Christ then must ou, country turn for inspiration. He alone can be its Savior

s1oo, ,ooO, 600 IN ONE BANK.
A striking Evidence of Prosperity Re- hected in Savings Deposits. 

A striking Evidence of Prosperity Re
 nected in Savings Deposits.
 New York Times.
 At the close of business yesterday the deposits in the Bowery Savings Bank reached a total of $10O00O. 900, a showing, it was said. unprecedented In the history of savings banks. and one never before attained by any savings institution in the world.
 It Is expected that this amount will be further augmented by today's busi- ness, this being the last day upon which deposits can be made in order to receive interest from July l.
 President Wood stated yesterday that the enormous increase in deposits in savings banks indicated in the most gratifying manner the continuance of the great national prosperity and !he subsistence of the suburban real estate speculative fever and return to normal conditions for security of their earn ings on the part of the masses. to whom savings bank security and the per cent interest made the most at tractive proposition for the thrifty and conservative element.
 A noticeable feature commented upon by savings banks officials is the in Aux of deposits from remote sections of the country where savings banks have been almost unknown, mainly he cause there was no need for them, in dicating that even the small hamlets are getting their share of prosperity.

Pioneers in Great Reforms. h D~at


 The Hartford Courant wonders how many people in that city and vicinity remember or indeed ever heard thai almost thirty-six years ago, when Theodore Roosevelt was a schoolboy of thirteen, the late sherman w.

LECTURES AT PARK
MAJOR BERRIMAN SPEAKS TO
 GREAT CROWD.
Christia1 Religion, He Says, is More Powerful Than Ever Before-Ex- Dresses Approval of Local
 Work.

Major John M. Berriman. the highest omcer in the Southern States of the Salvation Army. with headquarters Tn Atlanta. conducted three most inter- esting services in the churches Of Montgomery and at Electric Park yes terday. Major Berriman was listened to by large congregations with the closest attention.
 The lecture delivered at Electric Park commenced at 3:30 o'clock and lasted for an hour. All the amu3e- mehts at the park were closed during the services. The text of the lecture was taken from Romans i:16, in which Paul says: "J am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christi"
 Major Berriman said that the Chris tian religion was more powerful today than ever before. He pointed out that one of the greatest demonstrations is the fact that the Salvation Army had been phenomenal in Its growth; that there had been a change of sentiment since 1t began its work in the streets. and that the reason for the great crowds of all conditions of people who listen eagerly to the services was all the, outcome of the power of the Cos pei.
 Major Berriman told of his trip to London to attend the thirty ninth an- niversary of the foundation of the Sal vation Army. He pictured vividly he great throng of 120,000 persons who. in one body. listened to the services on that occasion; the magnificent orches- tra of 5000 pieces led by one conduc- tor, and applied this demonstration to the lecture as Illustrating the power of the Gospel at the present day.
 The Army had charge of the service at the Court Street Methodist Church last night and Major Berriman gave a most interesting talk on the army work and some of his experiences. De- spite the extremely uncomfortable weather. the large congregation was thoroughly absorbed in what Major Berriman had to say and gave him it's attention for over an hour
 Major Berriman will leave tomorrow for Atlanta. He expressed himself as very much pleased with the work and the condition of the local organization of the Salvation Army. He expressed his approval of the Fresh Air Camp soon to be started; the outlook in Montgomery Is very encouraging. and it is hoped that the great work will progress with even more rapid strides than heretofore.

A Constitutional Defect.


 The July adjourned session of the State Legislature illustrates the de- ficicncy in the State Constitution which limits session to fifty days every four years to a body whose duty it is to make laws for over two million people. There Is no doubt that the old system of having yearly sessions unlimited as to time proved to be a burden upon the taxpayers. but the Constitution framers had in mind a saving at the spigot when they pro- vided that fifty days in four years were enough for all law making purposes In a growing and prosperous State like Alabama! enough local bills would ordi- narily arise to take up the entire time of the Legislative body. where there happens to be no general law covering the questions coming up for considera- tion. As it is. under the fifty-day four-year provision two or three things must happen Either general or local Legislation must be neglected or busi- ness in both be inmaturely or badly done The fact that the governor has the power to call the Legislature in extra session is no argument No governor with political aspirations would dare call the Legislature ir~ ex- tra session for fear he would have to undergo the charge of having placed an unnecessary burden on the State treasury.

That was a very old saw at best. Even Calvin in his day said: There is no necessity to refute what some foolshly ina gined. that sculpture and painting of every Lind are condemned here" Modern iRfidelity is, to a large extent, a galvanizing of ancient and effete objections. The second com mandment is merely the prohibition of images as objects of worship.
 There was no favoritism in the cleo ton of Israel. The Divine purpose. as declared on Mount Sinai. was to make of them a kingdom or priests. The nation, as such. had a religious func- ton to perform toward the whole race They had an advantage over surround ing nations. because to them were com mitted the oracles of God. chief of which was the hope of q Messiah. But they held these truths in trust for the race. They were Gods almoners Added advantage brought also added accountability.
