SENATOR TELER'S
 LETTER ON SILVER

Washington, December 22.-Referring to the publication of a letter written by him on the financial question to Sir Moreton Frewen Senator Teller said today that he had no intention of reviving the silver question, but that his only purpose had been to call attention to the present con- ditions of exchange between Europe and America on one side and Asia on the other.
 T do not sec" he continued, why any of the members of the monetary com mission should be astounded at my ut terances, as some of them are represent ed by the newspapers to have been, as my letter did not purport to be, written on behalf of, or to express the opinion of the commission.
 For the last F years I have corre- sponded more or less with MT. Frewen as to the monetary condition of Europe and the condition of exchange between Europe, the United States and Asia. He is a gentleman well Informed on all these questions.
 T did say in my letter to him that the commission would hear him at the proper time, and I have no doubt it will I have understood that the object of this commission is primarily to obtain information as to the monetary condi- ton of the world, and ultimately to pre- sent that information to Congress with or without it's recommendations, as it may deem proper"

MISS ANNIE PECK
 TELLS HER STORY

New York December 22-Fresh from a triumphant tour of the Peruvian Andes, where she scaled the summit of Mount Huascaran, one of the highest peaks in the world, Miss Annie s. Peck of Prov idence, R. l. arrived here today on board the steamer Alliancia, from Cristobal.
 In speaking of her perilous trip up the precipitous slope of Mount Huascaran Miss Peck ascribed much of her success to the two Swiss guides who accom- panied her.
 Tt was due to the experience of these two men," said Miss Peck, that I suc- ceeded in reaching the 24,OO0 feet altitude which marks the summit of Huascaran. This height I believe, surpasses that reached by anyone before me. Hereto fore the record had been held by W. ". Graham, whose ascent of one of the Himalaya peaks is set down as climb of 23,SOo feet. One of my guides, Ru- dolph Taugwalder lost his gloves on the way up and had both hands frozen He has had one of his hands amputated since.
 we reached the summit on September g. and the following night, as we were making our way down, Taugwalder, who was leading, slipped and carried me with him over the edge of a Assure. The other guide, Gabriel Zum Taugwalder, fortunately for us, had seen the mis- step and had braced himself with his alpen stocky, so that when the rope c1at bound us all together yanked taut he retained sufficient purchase in the ice not to be carried over off his feet by mir weight down to us instructions to dig ourselves foot holds that would tighten the strain both on the rope and himself, and gradually pulled us both back to him. It was the closest call I had"
 Miss Peck, who is nearly 50 years, and whose physique is anything but Amazon ian gives solid lungs and sound heart as the greatest desideratum of noun tain climber.

STUDENTS SOCIETY
 IS RATHER QUEER

Philadelphia, December 22-As the re- suit of information given the authorities of the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Edgar F. Smith, vice provost of the in- stitution, has instituted an investigation into the workings and teachings of an organization which numbers among its members certain students of the untver- sity. The organization is known as the Order of the Fifteen and it's teach ings, 1t is alleged by the university in- formant. tend to overstep propriety. The matter was called to attention by a wom- an physician. member of the organ ization, who severed her connection with it when she discovered what she consid- cred objectionable matters in some of the pamphlets alleged to have been sent out by the organization. Some of these pamphlets are entitled. Purity" "Celi- baey," ''The Memory of Past Lives. L." Prayer" and Prayer and Conservation. I"
 Miss Harriet Brown. at whose apart ments the ''Order of the Fifteen" is al- legged to meet, today gave emphatic de- nial to reports regarding 1t.

Yankees Handling Criticised.

Boston December PA severe ar raignment by Judge Advocate Hoff of the navigation of the cruiser Yankee by Com mander Charles c. Marsh was the fea- ture of the closing proceedings today at the naval court of inquiry, appointed to investigate the circumstances attending the grounding of the cruiser Yankee on Spindle Rock at the western entrance to Buzzard Bay on September 23 last. The plotting of the course of the Yankee by Commander Henry F. Parmenter, of the equipment office of the Charlestown navy yard, showed the Yankee to have been three quarters of a mile southwest of Spindle rock, where, as Commander Marsh had stated. she was northeast of that point

Work has been mans lot since the creation, but day of toll should not have it's penalty of pain. Why is it, then, you ask. that backache so often follows? It is because the modern tendency is to overwork, to tear flown faster than nature can rebuild. An unnatural strain is thrown upon the vital organs, and more especially upon the kidneys. which have the work of Altering the blood free of waste and poison.
 The heavy tax of overvork-the strain upon the back that is So com mon to many trades and occupations. is too great The kidneys begin to fan in their work, and there is a double danger to health. The poison ous matter collects in the system, and the kidneys themselves begin to break down.

So far as the new industrial ar bitration law of Canada has been put to the test, publicity is seen to be its most effective feature, Neither party to a dispute about wages is bound to accept the decision of the arbitrators, but the case must be re- ferred to a court in advance of every declaration to go on strike or to. force a lockout. This provis- ion of the law brings the parties together for a thorough hearing of each side in the presence of third parties. The party which is respon- sible for the failure to accept the decision of the court may have to face hostile public opinion. The full facts are disclosed at the hearing, and upon them the court bases it's decision, and public opinion is not likely to sustain body of dissatis- fled workmen or a stubborn em- ployer in a course which is not con- pletely justiflable on the evidence submitted to the arbitrators.

away. It is noticeable that shortly before the visit of King Edward to the czar the German emperor made a remarkable call, in company with the princes of the states of the empire, upon, Francis Joseph in Vienna. TAis visit was set apart from all other ceremonies connect ed with the celebration of the an- niyersary of the accession of the Austrian emperor to the throne. It was gathering of the German princes to do honor to the Austrian emperor, who is of German blood, a sort of family reunion of the Gel
 man crowned heads. German en- terprise and the spirit of business expansion have filled the small coun- tries south and east of Austria with Germans. Their business talent, the fame of their systems of edu- cation and the position of the mili- tary men, trained in Germany, give to the race a leadership wherever numbers of them assemble, and this means about every seaport and trad | ing center on the southern seas | and every capital of the smaller
 states wedged in between the poli- tical possessions of the German and the Turk. As they are scattered 1 to-day among several countries and
 divided in their political ideals. the | Germans may well take alarm at the
 thought of France, Russia and Eng
 land leagued against them. But if they all get together and line up 1 they may turn the tables with re-
 spect to isolation. Physically
 France and Russia can be separated
 by Germany if all the German peo-
 pie in Europe set about it. And
 isolation for Germany would not be
 calamity if it proved to be that
 splendid isolation which is synony-
 nous with power to go it alone.

DEroRr NAN PATTERSON.
Give Her Choice Rc-
 tween Workhouse and Departure.

Pittsburg, July 29.--The police department Monday gave out the information that Nan Patterson, who was twice tried for the murder or Caesar Young, had left Pittsburg on last Saturday at the request or the police department and that she had been told not to return under pain of being sent to the workhouse for a year, where she would have to scrub floors.
 The workhouse threat was wnas brought Nan to time, and after a spirited defense she left.
 The chasing of Nan took place last Saturday afternoon, but the po- lice did not tell the public until yesterday. The ex-chorus girl, ap- pears to have gone too far with a Pittsburger whose name, has been prominent in the pig iron world. Sss is alleged to have broken him with her extravagances and his wife on last Saturday went to the police and made formal complaint.
 Detectives Lally and Jeff found the woman living at downtown ho- tel and ordered her to go with them to the police station. She went under escort and was ushered into the presence of Acting Chief of De tectives John Roach, who told her plainly that she was making too free | with the husbands of other women that Pittsburg would be we'll of without her, that she must leave town, and at once. The woman de murred and protested, but she was told plainly that unless she went charges would be made against her and she would be sent for year to l the workhouse. This made Nan wilt. and the police, say she con- sented to leave town at once, which she did Sunday evening.

Talk about the isolation of Ger many by the alliance of France. Russia and England has some point when the mind dweIIs solely upon Germany within the present limits of the empire ruled by the kaiser. But the Germans do not consider themselves destined to a back seat on the car of progress.

With our battleship fleet sailing bravely on, we needn't worry about any navy that Is afioat or can be set in motion for the next year in the seas where our interests may be in danger. And after the fleet returns to the Atlantic neither Japan nor any other power, even with Brazil to aid in furnishing battleships, will be able to forestaH us in the Gibral- tar of the Pacific. Pearl harbor, Hawaii, is being rapidly and effec- tually fortified, and when the work for which congress has literally provided is done there we shall have a naval base in the Pacific, making it practically impossible for an enemy to threaten our western Pearl harbor Is one of the finest nat ural havens in all the world. IL is so formed that ships riding there cannot be seen from the sea. The improvements to be made will in- clude a dry dock suitable for the largest warship we shall construct for many years to come, with ample coaling. supply storage and repair facilities, so that Pearl harbor will become a model station of its kind, Although located 5000 miles from our coast. a few scouting and fight ing ships having rendezvous there will do more to secure safety for a!I our westward possessions than the most elaborate chain of land fortif' cations 1t would be possible 10 con struct along the coast.
