RkD THE AUDIENCE WITH HIM
Christian Missionary Had Little Sho"
in Argument with Native
MoIIah.

As a medical missionary, stationed
flr 16 years in northwestern India,
near the Afghanistan frontier, DR.. T.
I. Pennell had his share Of peril and
adventure, which he has recOunted in
a volume entitled, Among the Wild
Tribes of the Afghan Border.
AS a medical man, DR.. Pennell had
lis ups and downs with the native
Coctors, who sweat their patients and
Iurn sores with lighted oil, but have
10 faith in western treatment. They
also bleed and purge; but gradually
he new-fangled treatment was &C
cepted, and grateful converts were
made at the Bannu dispensary.
AS a missionary. Dr.. Pennell had
TO contend with the mOllahs. who are
argumentative and great browbeaters;
and very often. he cOnfesses, he got
the worst of it by verdict Of the
ragged crowd that hemmed in the
theolOgians.
With a certain mollsh, who regard
ed the Christian medicine-man as 3
rival Dr. Pennell had an amusing en-
counter.
DO you know" asked the mollah,
what becomes Of the sun when 1t
sets every day."
The doctor gave the native circle
the scientific explanation.
Rubbish" exclaimed the mollah.
I'VE all know that the nres of hell
are under the earth, and that the sun
passes down every night, and there
fore comes up blazing hot in the
morning"
All Dr.. PsRnsll's accounts Of natural
phenomena were ridiouied by the mol
lah. Then. turning to his people, he
said, With contempt in his face and
voice:
1T is evident that l shall have to
teach him everything from the be-
ginning. Youths Companion.

For Parents Only.

Parents nowadays have good cause
to grumble. When they were young,
father and mother were paramount.
Now that they are old, pa and ma
don't count a straw.
After ALL" exclaimed the young
lady visitor to the paterfamilias, who
had supplied her plate with all the
choicest titbits from the roast fowl,
there is nothing in the world like the
breast of a chicken, is there?"
I can't say" replied paterfamilias
enviOusly. I have never tasted the

young my parents ate it; now my chill

SLIGHT HINT TO
TOMALTY Defense
Talesmen Asked If They Knew
About Tax Collectors Em-
bezzlement of Funds

The impeachment of jury to try
James c. Tomalty on the charge OF
altering a public record was begun in
Judge Lawlor's court yesterday. Nine
citizens were passed, but they are still
subject to peremptory challenge. II
is expected that the remainder of the
week Will be consumed in completing
the jury, and that the introduction OF
testimony will begin next Monday.
The specific offense with which To-
malty is charged is the insertion of
the figure 80 before $685." thus maxi
ing it appear that s5.605 had been paid
out of the police court bail money
fund by the treasurer, whereas in
truth only S605 had been paid out.
Tomalty is accused of having made
other alterations in the books Of the
city treasury, but the indictment upon
which he is being tried charges only
the one addition. The attorneys for
Tomalty. Stephen V. Costello and Her
bert Choynski, asked each venireman
If he was aware that a large shortage
had been caused some years ago by
the peculations of Edward Smith, tax
collector, which would appear to show
they intend to endeavor to cast the
blame on that official.
The nine temporarily passed for jury
duty yesterday were: CarsAp W.
Groth, Joseph NJ. Willard. Harry M.
Mantell. Matthew J. O'NeilI. Carl G..
Barkhaus, James Glassford, Charles
Wollpert, Peter Mcguire and Samuel
Berel. Assistant District Attorney
Harrison is conducting the prosecution.
The morning session yesterday was
taken up with arguments on the eha1-
lenge to the panel interposed by the
attorneys for Tomalty. They insisted
that their client should be tried be-
fore a jury chosen from the big jury
box of 2,409 names. The panel in court
consisted of 29 men whose names had
been returned to the big box. after
they had been summoned on a Calhoun
jury panel.
Judge Lawlor explained this to To-
malty's attorneys, but they persisted
with their challenge, claiming that the
1245 names withdrawn from the box
on the order of Judge Lawlor, for ex-
animation in the Calhoun case, should
be returned. After extended argument
the judge denied the challenge.

DECLARE NAME IS
GLARING MISNOMfR
Army and Navy Club Members
May Change Name to
United Services
Present Appellation Not Compre-
flensive Enough as Regards
Personnel of Roster

just exactly what is in a name is
being answered with q great deal of
emphasis by officers of the army and
navy who find in the Army and Navy
club a designation not only Incorrect
but one rnffiing TO the dignity of gold
lace and brass buttons.
you fellows said an obdurate rear
admiral. ..are fine fellows, but--why
in thunder do you call the club an
Army and Navy club? tits an army
navy-marine- militia revenue cutter
general mixture of club. Call it the
United Services club, and 1 am with
you. Under the. circumstances
rear admiral drew his naval form to-
getller in magnificent dignity.
SUCH A MIxUP IT IS
The army balks at the militia; the
navy at the revenue cutter service. The
marine lives in his own world and is
the pacific influence on the entire out
fit. The regular. who has whipped the
fear of the blue heavens into a few
score dattoes has a conception of a
colonel of the governors staff which
is narrowing.
The militia colonel. who knows he
can march around the regular fnan-
cially and who has won his pile by
the labor of his brain and Drawn. can
not figure out why the West Point
shayetail, who dare not go for an
automobile ride without thinking twice,
should possess such an intense sense
of superiority over a fellow American
citizen.
The navy forgets it's manners when
it speaks of the revenue cutter service
men, who are known in navy pidgin as
customs collectors" The revenue cut
ter service man, who plays hide and
go seek with icebergs in the frozen
north, chivvying seal poachers and
maintaining the honor of the country
among the ruffianly fisheries of for
hidden waters, and who can make
revenue launch climb trees In moments
of stress, considers the navy man q
hedgling uninitiated in the real work
of man.
THEY ALL LIKE EACH OTHER
Therefore, the jangle. OF course. in
dividually. each man likes the other.
The militia colonel grins to hear the
West Point boy tell of the rush through
the jungle scrub, and the youngster
gives his admiration to the citizen sol
dler who squeezed business out or q
rock, who feared not to stake every
cent on a deal. The navy man tingles
as he thinks of the tiny revenue launch
poking its nose through the oily seas,
and the revenue cutter man mods in
approval at the thought of the big
guns playing over the waters of Manila
bay. But, departmentaliy, there is a
hitch.
In the face of the opposition the
probabilities are that the name will be
changed soon to the Omitted Services
club and become q place where all may
meet as brothers in blood.
