ST. Peters Church, London.

clergy, married at the little church
four years ago bis chaplain, the Rev.
Mr.. Mcmillan, to Miss Maurice. grand.
daughter of the late Rev. Charles Mau.
rice, and daughter of Gen. Maurice.
In the middle Victorian period DR..
Maurice was the incumbent of the
church. He soon became celebrated as
the most eloquent and powerful
preacher in the Church of England.
and brought st. Peters from the un-
known ranks of a chapel of ease to its
present status of a famous and fash
ionable church. The only other mar
riage celebrated in the church was
that of Lord Selborne's daughter to
Col. Lord Digby of the Coldstream
guards. This was some years ago and
King Edward was among the guests.
But for the fact that the bride was
daughter of Englands lord chancellor
1t is doubtful whether the special au-
thorization needed for the ceremony
would have been issued. In the Nc
MILAN Maurice wedding the fact that
the bridegroom was chaplain to the
archbishop of Canterbury made 1t cas-
Ter to grant the brides request that
she might be married in her grand
fathers old church The fees for the
special license ard special authorize
ton amounted to $3.50.
St Peters was built two centuries
ago by the earl OF Oxford as a domes.
tic chapel to his big mansion on what
were then the outskirts of London.
About century ago. when the earl
dom became extinct, the chapel be-
came the property of the crown and
has remained SO ever since. For years
1t was used as a chapel OF ease and
has never had parish attached to It.
The government finally charged pew
rents, in DR.. Maurice's time, for the
church was crowded to- the doors
twice every Sunday. When DR.. Maui
rice died Canon Page-Roberts of Can
terbury, another OF England's most ia
nous preachers, succeeded him and
still is in charge Canon Page Rob
erts goes to London only during the
social season. and during the other
months of the year his curate con-
ducts the services, and distinguished
preachers from all parts visit there.
The late Bishop Potter of New York
has been heard there.
The exterior of st. Peters is very
plain. 1t looks more like a little old
church in the backwoods than a IA
nous London place of worship But
the interior is thing OF beauty.
Thousands upon thousands of dollars
have been spent on 1t during the last
quarter of century. Its marvellous
windows. altar pictures and decora-
tions are all by Burne-Jones, and hun
dreds Of American tourists visit 1t
every year to see them. Its congre-
cation is said to be the most intellect
ual In England. The church being SO
near Cavendish square and Harley
street, large number OF scientists,
surgeons and physicians attend it.
Lord Cheylesmore. ex-mayor of West
minister. and his American wife at
tend. The duke of Wellington, Lord
Roberts and a hundred or more great
peers are pewholders. So anxious are
people to attend the services that the
vestry always has a waiting list of
over 300 who have applied for pews.

Would Relieve the President.

"In recent years great deal has been nervous system of the man who fills the office of President of the United States" remarked an old citizen who lived for some time in Washington. Tt is true that the duties of the chief executive of this great nation have increased many fold within the past 20 years and only a man der his task. It is stranger, therefore, that the President does not take some steps to lessen the burden. A very simple way would be for the President to induce Con- sress to pass law providing that all post masters-frst second and third class, as we'll as the fourth cass-be appointed by the postmaster general and that all collec- tors of customs and all collectors of in- ternal revenue be appointed by the secre- tary of the treasury. There are about 2509 postmasters now appointive by the Pres ident and more than 100 collectors. As 1t IS the President has to give personal con- sideration to thousands of applicants for postmasterships. This of itself Is an enor- nous tax on his time. If President Roose- welt would start the reform by recom- mcnding to Congress the passage of bill cn the line suggested he would lay his successors under obligations and would bs doing a good public servlce.'

BarberS for the Indians

The government is preparing to pro- vide barbers for the Indians on govern ment reservations. The once untutored Lo Is not to be shackled and put through tonsorial palaces compulsorily, but he is to be invited politely to get "a hair cut" free from all expense. The government hopes he will accept, and perhaps in his transition state he will.
 Let us not condemn the Indian who wears his hair long, for he has never disfgured his face with whiskers of tla Kern pattern, much less of the Sherman sort. From time out of mind he has been smooth-faced. No Roman could outdo him in that respect, and yet he had in the long ago neither a razor nor looking-glass. He devised rude tweezers, and with these he soon put his face in a condition that gave a beard no foothold. To thus led the nation on to it's present beardless con dition, and he deserves credit for thar, even if he does stand condemned for wearing uncropped hair The govern ment barbers can soon rectify that mis- take.

Thweatt is the eastern passenger agent of the Southern railroad. He is the man who routes out the itinerary of all the theatri- cal companies. his headquarters being in New York.

 T have visited nearly all the big towns in the south, but I feel a greater inter est and pride in Birmingham's develop ment than any of the others. l was travelling passenger agent out of Bir@ mingham for the Southern some 16 years ago, and having witnessed its change from town to great city, know what it's possibilities are Birmingham is great town, and it's fame is heard all over the United States

Mr. Bryan Among Republicans

The Kansas City Star is repub- hcan paper of independent proclivities. It supports the Chicago ticket, but at the same time it admits that Mr. Bryan has grown stronger-that "he has gained respect among republicans in all parts of the country by his gener ous, fair treatment of President Roose- welt" It goes on to say: ''Mr. Bryan has done more to hold up President Roosevelt's hands than many promi- nent republicans have done. He gave the President his approval. while Can. non, Aldrich, Payne, Dalzell and other men of that stamp were trying to dis credit and obstruct the Roosevelt al. ministration. In other words. the re. publican reactionaries gave MT. Bryan an opportunity, and he was smart enough to accept It."
 To those who think that "Theodore Roosevelt is the one man who can save this country from becoming a plutoc- racy," and to those who are ready to vote for change of administration. the attitude of MT Bryan towards the so-called Roosevelt policies will prove enticing. The Star frankly admits as much, and the Star puts into print what host of voters are thinking. especially those voters who think Taft lacks force and will power and that he is preparing to become the obligee of special interests of all sorts that de- sire to exploit the country in private monopolies. MT. Taft is about to ac- cept and use millions of their money, and it idle to say that that money will be without influence in case he is elected.
