cellent reproduction of SCOTS novel.

feature picture was THE Brazilian
Ring being most graphic portray
al of melodrama in the tropics.

hidden beneath a wilderness of flowers
and floral offerings of magnificent design

cities.
The funeral sermon was preached by
Bishop Hendrix, who declared that Bishop
Galloway had been the best and the clos
est friend he ever had, and that he loved
him like David did Jonathan.
Bishop Gambler spoke to the same eff

BAILEY WANTS TO PLACE
"MALEFACTORS" INJAIL

Washington, May 13.-Referring directly
to the United States Steel corporation and
charging that organization with violating
the antitrust laws of the country Sena-
tor Bailey today in addressing the Senate
on the tariff bill declared that If the of
ficers of the law do their duty the Steel
trust would be dissolved and said he ex-
pected eventually to see this done. He
added that If the present administration
fails in its duty in that respect the peo-
pie of the country would choose other Of
ficials to represent them, and he declared
his firm belief that the officers of the
Steel corporation would be either impris-
oned or made fugltives from Justice.
Just put one of these malefactors of
great wealth in the penitentiary and you
will see the antitrust law enforced with
out further Violations" said Mr. Bailey.
'Send one of these men who may be
found violating either the interstate COM
merce law or the antitrust law to the
penitentiary and you will stop these vio-
lations by others. You cannot do 1t with
fines because when the court fines a trust

THE object sought by the members
of the grain growers department this
year" said he, is the same as the pur-
pose for which this convention has
been called by the Farmers union. BY
collective marketing the members OF

millers and export products will be sold
direct to the English and Scottish
wholesale cooperative societies of
Great Britain. In this way we Will

the senators on both sides of the chamber,

Mr.. Bailey said he expected the United

solved. Continuing, he said:

Paris, May 1s.-The turbulent scene In
the Chamber of Deputies today ended IN
another signal victory for Premier Gle
menceau when the governments policy
with regard to the postal strike was em-
phatically endorsed by vote of 4O4 to
SO, including also the government insist
ence that the postal employees and other
functionaries have no right to strike. I'M
mediately afterwards the chamber passed
vote Of general confidence in the gov
ernment 360 to 159.
The strikers received the Chambers re-
buke with shrug of the shoulders, de-
olaring that it only served to bind closer
their forces, which would soon startle the
country by a big increase and rapid
extension of the general movement. On the
other hand it is intimated that the gov
ernment has other plans in view to off,
set any serious growth of the strike.

Boston, May 13.-An attempet by so
called radicals in the church to have
members of the other denominations in
vited to deliver addresses was defeated
today by the general committee in charge
of theN Episcopal church congress in ses-
sion IN this city. The congress does
not represent the Episcopal church in an
official capacity but the committee de-
cided that to admit outside spectators
might add to the tumult which arose from
the passage of the open pulpit amend
ment adopted by the last general con-
ference. At tonights session was dis
cussed the subject of psychotherapy as
embodied in the Emmanuel movement
a system of mental and spiritual heal
ing originated by Rev DR.. Elwood Wor-
cester of this city. The session was
largely attended. Psychotherapy, as an
aid to pastoral work, was defended by
Rev Lyman P. Powell of Northampton
Mass, and Rev. DIR. Samuel S. Marquis
of Detroit, DIR. Thomas Darlington, health
officer Of New York, and Rev. Dr. Charles
L. slattery of Springfield, Mass, former
ly dean of the cathedral Of Our Merciful
Savior Fairbault, Mimi, held dissenting
opinions.y
Rev. Or. Powell said in his address,
"The Emmanuel movement is the first
intelligent and systematic effort to save
Isychotherapy to scientific medicine by
placing the responsibility on the doctor
for the determination of the times and
instances in which it is to be employed
to save it from application to the uses

faith common to the Catholic and Pro-
testant alike"
DR.. Darlington said: '"rhe danger Of the
movement is not to the medical profess
sion, but to the church. The church
