''THIS rs MY 74TH BIRTHDAY"
Bishop ThOburn.

Rev. James Mills Thoburn, one OF
the most noted of the missionary
bishops of the Methodist Episcopal
church, was born in st. Clairsville,
Ohio, March z, 1896, and received his
education at Allegheny College. AT
ter his graduation in 1857 he decided
to take up missionary work and was
sent by his church to India. He re-
manned in India more than thirty
years, being stationed successfully at
Nynee, Pauri, Moraiabad, Lucknow,
Calcutta and Simla. In the early
eighties he became presiding elder OF
the Indian Conference. He returned
to the United States in 1886 and two
years later was elected missionary
bishop for southern Asia, including
India and Malaysia. Bishop Tho
burn has written a number of books
dealing with the progress OF the
Christian religion in Asia and has
preached and lectured on the same
subject in many parts Of the world.

State census bureaus forthcoming re-
port on the statistics Of the 158 larg-1
est cities which had population OF
over 10000 each that year.
The report, prepared by chief of
division q. H. Mailing. contains COM
plete statistics Of the number of IL
quor licenses in force at the close
of the license year in each of the
cities and the number of inhabitants
to each dealer selling liquor by the
drink.
More than one-fourth of such deal
ers in the 15s largest cities were re-
ported from New York and Chicago:
the cities of over 100000 population
with the smallest number of saloons
were Washington (521) and Pitts
burg (S1S). In cities of this class,
the largest number of saloons in pro-
portion to the population were in
Milwaukee and New Orleans where,
in the former, there was one dealer
selling liquor by the drink to every
142 inhabitants and, in the latter, to
every 200 inhabitants. The number
of inhabitants to every dealer in
Philadelphia was 761, and in Boston
1913. The other cities having less
than 200 inhabitants to each dealer
were Galveston $50, East st. Louis
(143), Mobile (153), Houston (158),
Hoboken (16S), Sacramento, CAL,
(188), San Antonio (179), La
Crosse, Wis, (1S3), Springfield, ILL.,,
(18S), and West Hoboken 19D.
The smallest number of saloons in
proportion to population is shown for
the cities Of Pennsylvania and Massa-
chusetts, and the largest for those OF
Texas, Ohio and Wisconsin. 4
In comparing the number of re-
tail liquor dealers in 141 cities re-
porting for both 1907 and 1905, it
is shown that there was a decrease
of per cent in the number of sa-
looms in 1907. The decrease was
general in nearly every part Of the
country, except the Rocky Mountain
and southwestern states.

GREAT ECONOMIC LOSS.

A toll of 100000 lives lost in the
coal mining industry in the United
States in the last 10 years is meas
ure of the happy-go-lucky spirit
which has characterized American
methods of mine supervision. If to
the list of those killed in the coal
industry be added those killed or in
jured in this and ether mining enter
prises, the grand total impresses one
with a cheapness with which human
life is regarded.
The recent Cherry mine disaster
in Illinois has at least awakened our
national legislature to the need of
doing something in the way of es-
tablishing a bureau of mines, by
which much needed information re-
lating to the mining industry may be
obtained with the hope that the states
will use this information and enact
more intelligent and stringent laws
to protect those engaged in this per-
ilous industry. The duties of the bu-
reau officials will be to investigate the
methods of mining, especially in re-
lation to the safety of mines, appli-
ances best adapted to prevent acct
dents, the treatment of ores and
other mineral substances, in addition
to the use of explosives and electri-
city.
There will be broad field for use
full work by this bureau. There Is
a large annual waste in the mining
of coal amounting to almost two
thirds of the value of production. In
some places coal fields belonging to
the public domain get ON fire and
much waste from this source is oc-
casioned. Congress will doubtless
authorize the establishment of this
bureau this session and much good
may be expected from such action.

To wipe up spilled water or grease

A FAMOUS MANS son.

The poll of the senior class at
Yale, an unusual event, shows that,
in the opinion of the members OF the
class, Robert A. Taft, son of the
president, is the best scholar and
brightest young man among them.
This will be very gratifying to the
Taft family, but to the people of the
nation it should have a far broader
and more significant meaning. Any
young man whose father is illustrious

New Type Of Bridge.

According to- the Stockholm Dag
blad. the chief of the Beton construc
ton Office has proposed for the new
bridge over Tranebergssund con-
struction of totally new type. The
bridge suggested is pontoon bridge.
but differs from the usual type in that
the pontoons are quite submerged and
are anchored to weights resting on the
bottom Of the sea. The bridge. which
Is constructed with latticework, con-
sists of long links thirty-five meters In
length. each OF which rests on two
pontoons. The excess Of sustaining
power of the pontoons Is so great that
tramways passing over the bridge do
not cause any depression whatever Of
the pontoons. The whole bridge re-
mains thus perfectly still. independent
of the water level.

CANADA TO HAVE
FIRST RATE NAVY
PRIME MINISTER LAURIER INTRO
DUCES IN PARLIAMENT A
BILL FOR 1T.

OTTOWA, Ont, Feb. "a line OF
cleavage was established today be-
tween the two political parties of Can
ada on the policy of building Ca
madam navy.
In the House of Commons Sir Will
fred Laurier, the Prime Minister
moved the second reading of the naval
bill, affirming the principle that the
Dominion should begin preparations
for defense of her coasts and trade
routes and to participate in the de-
tense of the British Empire generally
should the emergency arise.
The leader of the opposition, R. L.
Borden, who previously had support
ed the proposition, today broke away
and offered an amendment censuring
the Government for having Inaugural
ted a permanent naval policy without
first submitting the question to the
people for approval. He advocated
that money be given the British Gov
eminent to build Dreadnaughts.
1t is recognized that the Government
bill will be passed without substantial
change, and that tenders will be invit-
ed for the construction of the vessels
in Canada.

ON FIRE
AND ABANDONED
BELIEVED TO BE THE GEORGE r.
PHILLIPS OF STAFFORD,
DELAWARE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. IA vessel
on fire and abandoned at sea was re
ported today by wireless telegram to
the naval photographic office. The
wireless message came from a mer-
chant vessel whose call signal is
u" but the name Of which is not
listed. The message in effect was
that the merchantmen had passed a
green schooner with black bow and
white stern, with yellow stripe, on
fire at sea, in latitude 3325 north, lon
gitude 73.40 west. Her name in black
letters, appeared to be George p.
Phillips, Delaware. Her boats were
gone and nobody was aboard. A high
sea was running at the time. The
telegram was signed Davis"
1t appears probable that the burned
schooner was the George F. Phil
lips, of Seaford, Delaware, which
sailed January % from Baltimore for
Wilmington, N. c., in command of
Capt Gaskins. She carried a crew
of four. The vessel was built at
Bethel, Del, in 1901, was Of 27O gross
tonnage, 1902 feet long and 1873 feet
beam. So far as reported the 1873
feet beam. So far as reported the
crew have not been picked up or
landed at any port.

Defines Compensation.

The bill defines the amount of COM
pensation to be paid by employers to
employers, in cases of injury or death,
basing it upon the amount of the pre-
vious earning power of the victim,
and provides that it shall be paid in
the form of an annuity. The bill is
based upon the existing law of Eng
land and Germany. Such law was
favored in one of the messages Of
former President Roosevelt, and Pre-
sident Taft is also said to have COM
mented favorably upon.

SPEECH TREATED Nth SOON
Resolution to Loan Tents Of Govern
ment to the Confederate Reunion
At Mobile Draws Forth Remarkably
Mean and Bitter Harraneue.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Protesting
against loaning Government tents for
the use of the Confederate veterans at
their annual reunion in Mobile, Ala,
next April, Senator Hepburn, of Idaho,
in the Senate late today made the
sharpest comment upon the issues of
the Civil War that has been heard in
Congress in twenty years.
He inveighed against men in RE
bel" uniforms being permitted to oc-
cupy Government property, or the
Rebel flag being allowed to noat
above it. Finally he drifted into the
question of honoring men by placing
their statues in the Congressional
Hall of Fame, and by unmsitakable in
ference condemned the action OF Vir-
ginoa in sending the statue Of Gen.
Robert E. Lee to Washington.
"Take it away and worship it, If you
please" he Numbered, but do not in
trude it upon the people who do not
want It."
Democratic Senators moved I'M
easily about the floor, conversing with
one another, or sat frowning and
angered, listening to the speech, which
continued nearly an hour
Finally, when Senator Hepburn had
concluded, Senator Bankhead said:
Il am sure the Senator from Idaho
feels much better, and l ask for a
vote"
BY roll call" shouted dozen or
more Senators, and hands went up in
second of that request from every part
of the Senate chamber. When the
vote was had on the tent loaning
measure, all of the Democrats nd all
of the Republicans, except ! Hey
burn, voted for it. His negative vote
was uttered in loud and defiant tone.
The Senate had been drowsily con- |
its regular calendar during !
the greater part of the day, and
when, towards the close of the SEES
sion, after almost everything else had
been disposed of, this measure was
reached in it's regular order. Mr.
Hepburn was prompt to raise an OBJ
lection, and Mr.. Bankhead was just |
as alert in moving its consideration
regardless of the objection.

FIRST TIME DEATH PENALTY HAS

KANSAS CITY, Feb. S.-Convict-
ed of assault, George Reynolds and
John Williams, negroes, were hanged
simultaneously today in the county
Jail here. Their execution marked
the first time the death penalty has
been inflicted in Missouri for this
crime.
The negroes on the night of De-

posed.
