What About Your Talent?

What are you doing with the talent which God gave you? In what way are you trying to live for your fellow man as we'll as for yourself? What is vour conception of your responsibility as a wonderfully-m God sent messenger to the world?
 It is easy to say that we will cut loose from the noisy crowd and retire into Q privacy upon which the world shall not break. But can we do it? Can we de- taoh ourselves from the world, its hurly burly, it's stern realities? Can we har- den ourselves against the prlckings of Conscience, deafen our ears to the call of Duty?
 You see that the world needs earnest workers,-and you are ashamed to fold your hands and sit i'll slippered ease at your freside. You hear the din which rises from the great battlefield of life, you see the lines of the righteous wayer and break; you hear the trumpet which calls for you, and you are ashamed not to go. You can not bear that evil shall triumph while conscience calls you "cow- ard ]" because you will not take your place in the battle-line. Madness it may be, but whenever Right unfurls her flag and cries, Follow me !'' you must obey. Thomas E. Watson.

New Line for Power Companiss

New Line for Power Companies
 The Montreal Light, Heat and Power Go. has announced that it will engage in the ice business, obtaining water from artesian wells and freezing 1t by electric power into blocks of any desired shape and size, so as to avoid cutting. This is an example which might with advantage be followed by many smaller plant. Every lighting plant must be capable of carrying certain maximum load at the time of night when most lights are in use, but for at least IS hours out of the 24 the load is from half as much in large cities to almost nothing ill small country places, where there is little industrial use of electrical power, so that during the greater part of the day much of the capital invested is earning no dividends. The surplus power might just as we'll be used in making ice and providing another source of revenue, particularly as the time when the "peak" load is of shortest duration coincides naturally with that of the largest con. sumption of fice.-Commercial Record.

GREETS CHAMPION
(By Associated Press.)

Chicago, March 15.-Jack John
son, champion heavyweight pugilist
of the world, arrived here this morn
ing. He was greeted at the depot
by a large crowd of people of the col
ored aristocracy. Polka dot hosiery,
peg top trousers, boldly designed
spirit, the masculine of cabriolet hat,
and other compliances to dictate the
fashion promulgated from the sar-
torial throne of the so called black
belt, is in evidence everywhere. John
son was radiantly happy as he was
greeted by his friends and went to
the home of a friend in an auto
mobile. He stated that he was will
ing to fight Jeffries for purse split
60 and 40. 1ohnson's wife did not
accompany him, but stopped off in
Milwaukee to visit friends.

The fight on the rules in the house
began this afternoon when Dalzell
offered a resolution making the rules
of the last house for the present ses-
sion. The democrats froced a roll
call on ordering the previous ques-
ton. The previous question was
ordered 1914 to 1873, the effect of
which was to shut off debate. Bell
then called for the adoption of the
resolution, which was defeated 189
to 1913, thus accomplishing the sue
cess of the insurgents.
Clark, of Missouri, offered a reso-
luton providing for the appointment
of a committee of Is to amend the
rules and with notifications making
the present rules applicable for the
present. Clark moved the previous
question on the adoption of his reso-
luton and the roll call was ordered.
The house refused, by vote of 179
to 203, to order the previous ques-
ton, with the result that the ques-
ton was again left in the air.

Washington, March 15.-Precisely

sion of the 61st congress, called by
the president for the purpose of en-
acting tariff legislation, began with

CR|T|C|SE QUAKE
RELIEF WORK
EARTHQUAKE SUFFERERS ARE
GOVERNMENT AGENTS-NtWS
STRICTLY CENSORED.

Rome, March 15.--" lie bitterest
complaints are reaching Rome in
perfect flood, from the country de-
vastatei by the recent earthquake,
of the ineffciency with which relief
is being administered.
That there should have been con-
fusion and many mistakes for a
time, in the fact of so colossal dis
acter, is recognized as probably hav-
ing been unavoidable.
Now, however, the compliments
say, two months and a half have
elapsed and it is time some sort of
system should have been brought
throughout the stricken region.
A few of the authorities critics
are themselves officials. who declare
they can accomplish little on account
of the procrastination and incompe
tency of those above them. A large
proportion consists of foreigners
who have been engaged in relief work
since the day after the catastrophe.
Others are sufferers of the better
class.
Of dishonesty, which was charged
at first in some cases, there seems
really to have been very little, if
any. 1t is of the authorities delay,
lack of administrative ability and
failure to grasp the seriousness Of
the situation that the complaints are
received.
TIL rigid censorship which the
government has exercised over news
from the earthquake region has been
responsible for many wild stories,
however. The Italian press is per-
mitted to print little concerning &C
tual conditions, and correspondents
of papers abroad are strictly pro-
hibited from telegraphing informa-
ton they may gather to their vari-
Gus offices.
More or less of it has gone out by
mail, but even this method of news
transmission involves the danger of
the correspondents expulsion from
the country if the authorities are
able to satisfy themselves that he has
violated their orders. The result of
this policy of suppression has been
the creation of suspicious of grave
money scandals, of which there have
really been practically none at all, in
connection with the handling Of re-
lief funds.
