Constitutional Bill Opposed.

While there is an abundance OF senti.
ment favoring the proposed constitu-
tionaI convention bill which is now pend
inc in the legislature, the opinion from
that viewpoint is not unanimous, and
there are those who are not sure that
the people are ready for the change.
Among these is Senator I'll. X. Mahon,
chairman of the senate committee on
constitution, who discusses the question
from an unbiased and impartial view
point. Speaking of the matter, Senator
Mahon said:
There is a bill before our commit
tee proposing a call for a constitutional
convention, but this being proposed
statute law and not a resolution pro-
posing to change the constitution, l am
OF the opinion that it is not subject
for our consideration without a recon-
mendation from the governor Not only
that, but [ don't believe that there is
sufficient demand from the people for
constitutional convention at this session
of the legislature.
"The constitution should be amended
so as to conform to the changing condi-
tions, but we should make an effort to
make these changes by submitting
amendments to the people.
These suggested changes are receiv-
ing our careful consideration, but if they
are not submitted, as | suggested two
years ago, let the subject of constitu-
tional convention be discussed in the
state campaign next year, so that they
may be better understood by the people,
and 1 believe the majority of them may
be relied upon to consider the matter
without passion and dispose of it intelli-
gently"

WHILE ENTERTAINING A DUKE.
A Few Suggestions Made by Writ
er in Lippincott's.

Many people are unnecessarily
embarrassed While . duke is visiting
them This is a great mistake. or
course a duke IS duke; but, then,
there is no reason why he shouldn't
be treated with certain amount of
respect.
To do this it is not necessary to
respect him too much. Treat him
with as much respect as you think
he will stand, but do not lavish it
upon him.
If he leaves his boots in front of
his door at night, do not feel that it
is incumbent upon you to get up at
six o'clock TO shine them. Wait un-
til seven, anyway. He will never
know the difference.
Let him be alone with your daugh-
ter as much as he likes. If he re-
sents this, tell him he can get even
later. This might under some cir
cumstances seem too candid; but it
is better to meet him in a frank and
cpen-hearted manner.
At night, before the duke goes to
bed, sneak into his room and turn
on all the steam. Being an English
man, he may not understand this
sudden warmth on your part, but
you can explain to him the next
morning when he fans himself down
to the breakfast table, that it's only
a foretaste of what he may expect
later Not being able to see a joke,
he will probably think that you mean
to pay all his expenses to Palm
Beach, which will restore him to
his good humor.
When you have a duke on hand,
do not talk too much about your an
cestors, or rub it in about your fam
lily. 1t might make him feel uncom-
Portable. No duke likes to feel that
he is marrying above him.
Naturally you will provide him,
while he is with you, with the neces-
stiles of life. 1t is extremely en-
barrassing when you invite some of
your intimate friends in to see your
duke to have him sit on the end of
your davenport couch with fringe on
his trousers and a false bosom to
his shirt. Feed him, therefore, on
good nourishing food, and make him
as respectable as any duke can ever
be made

in Picking, one belonging to an indie

approved method Of reaching the
crowds in Chinese cities. It is a
typical Chinese room, open to the
street, where native or a missionary
spends two or three hours every aft

whoever drops in, and there is a deal
of coming and going, since it no long

Various methods Of approach are
used, all depending upon the bent Of
the preachers mind. At the Congre-

Picking, China.-The missions at
Picking are often pointed out as mod
els. And with reason. The workers
are of a higher grade than ordinary,
and they maintain pleasant social re-
lations with the legation people and
with the few other Europeans in the
capital They are on friendly terms
with eminent Chinese. Their work is
substantially planted, and housed in
fine quarters. They display degree
of UNCONVENTIONAL corrity far in ad-
vance Of what is generally to be found
in America. At least one prosperous
native church exists, and a medical
and educational service is rendered to
the community which commands the
praise Of all observers. There are
serious grounds for criticism. also,
and these will be mentioned later.
The American missions are the
Northern Methodists, the Congrega-
tionalists. and the Presby terians, the
London Mission and the French
Roman Catholics represent the con
tinent OF Europe. Near Peking, and
to be considered in this general
group, are the Congregational Mission
at Tung Chow, and the Presbyterian,
Congregational and China Inland Mis-
sion at Pao-Ting-fu, both Of which
cities were centers of the Boxer out

sionary slate clean, so that, in most
cases, there was not even a vestige
