THREATENED TO
KILL HUSBAND
MANY WITNESSES TESTIFY AS
TO ACTS OF MRS. GLOVER IN
TRIAL OF HATTIE LEBLANC
FOR MURDER.
Oy Associates Proea

Cambridge, Dec. 9.-More than a
dozen witnesses appeared today for
the defense in the trial Of Hattie Le-
Blanc, charged, with the murder OF
Clarence Glover, and testified that
Mrs. Lillian Glover, wife of the dead
man, had often threatened to kill her
husband and applied vile epithets to
him. Much of the testimony was OF a
nature not to be printed, but many
women sat in the court room.
One witness testified he sold the
gun with which Glover was killed, but
Hattie was not the purchaser. ADoth-
or told of a conversation with Mrs.
Glover before the murder when she
called her husband unprintabie names
and told Of the relations of Glover
With other women. A servant in the
Glover home testified to hearing Mrs.
Glover say she wished her husband
was dead. Attorneys for Hattie an
nounced she will not take the stand
in her own defense.

JAPAN IS BUILDING
eATTLEsHiPS IN ENGLAND
BY Associated Press.

Victoria, r. c., Dec. 9.-The Japan
csc public was surprised when news
was received from England that the
Japanese navy department had order
ed a 27,0OC-toG cruiser, to make q
knots Snd mount twelve i4-inch guns,
from /. British Arm.
Japanese newspapers insist that
this WAS in contravention Of the policy
announced Of constructing all war YES
sells at home. The Japanese naval de-
partment issued an official statement
that the order was given To a British
yard in order that Japan might have
vessel OF the latest type as a model
for construction at home of the other
dreadnOught cruisers.
Some CT the Japanese papers con-
slider the order an acknowledgment of
Japanese inferiority in warship con.
struction. The Asahi saws the war
ships Tsukuba, Ikoma, Sat Suma, Aki
and others built in Japan have more
or less defects in comparison with
those constructed In Europe. The Jill
Sh1mpO publishes an article urging
further expansion of the Japanese
navy and reduction Of the army. The
jill. after recapitulating figures show
ing the building programs of the pow.
ers. says that by 1917 the United
states. Germany and France will each
be able to assemble thirty battleships
and armored cruisers against Japan's
nineteen. The Jill says that SAC, 900.
600 to be voted for naval increase is
not nearly adequate.

AXE GOOD CARE
OF YOUR RELIGION
Tampa Times.

\ Pensacola pastor is making his
ed which suggests the possibility that
there are pastors and congregations
in which the preacher might profit
ably pay a good deal of exclusive at
tention to the uncOnyerted members
of the flock. 1t would be a pleasing
innovation 10 see a rousing revival
among the members of churches. Not
but that most of them are converts
and living good Christian lives, but
there is quite a spTinkling in most
churches who need overhauling-like
boats that have been voyaging IA
without constant attention to their
condition and the wear and tear OF
hard usage Strains viii tell on Chris
tan character a. on everything else
that is loaded heavily, and It is a
rather risky thing for a man TO pay
less attention to keeping his religion
shiDshape than his automobile The
difference, 10 the profane eye. Is that
when ones auto refuses to mote
everybody knows it, but when relibion
ceases to be genuine and sincere and
Christian, few people except the owner
can have more than a suspicion of
the truth OF the case. Religion Should
never be allowed to become Ieaky
and waterlogged,. nor so covered with
barnscleS as TO rctard lis travelling
and cargo speed and capacity. Most
any man would be benefited by dry.
docking his religion occasionally.

GREAT SCHEME TO
BUILD UP GUANTANAMO.
New Orleans Ficayne.


That the recommendations OF the
secretary of the the navy with re-
spect to the closing OF the Southe ,.
navy-yards will be adopted by Con-
gress is about the most improbable
thing likely to happen. Congress has
persisteniy refused to make appropria-
tons for the development Of the pet,
scheme of the Navy Department
Guantanamo-andi is likely to cOntiue
to refuse appropriations. If Congress
were willing to spend the money de-
sired on Guantanamo nothing would
ever be heard about the closing of
the Southern yards, but since the
money cannot be had it is now pro-
posed to build up the utterly use
less site at Guantanamo by stripping
the Southern yards of their floating
docks and their fine tools and equip
ment for use on the south Cuban
coast. /
The proposition to tow the. great
floating dock at New Orleans to
Guantanamo vii. require the assent
of Congress, as the money with which
the dock was built was voted specifi-
cally for the New Orleans Naval Sta
ton, and cannot be diverted without
the consent of Congress. Some years
ago Congress voted money for the ma
terial enlargement of the power plant
at the New Orleans station, but the
money was diverted for use at the
Bremerton Navy-yard. One Of the
last acts of the late Senator McEnery
was to have Congress direct that this
money, appropriated specifically for
New Orleans, be spent here, but now
that the senator has passed away
the construction of the powre station
is being again abandoned.
The Navy Department has no power
to divert funds for one hayward to
| another, hence if our congressman
and their colleagues throughout the
Mississippi Valley, and in the South
| generally, will only insist that not a
penny of the money voted for the
! equipment of the Southern yards be
diverted to Guantanamo, either in
cash or in the shape Of the equipment
itself. the great scheme to build up
! Guantanamo in spite of Congress will
die a-morning.
| Secretary Meyers idea that with
the fleet in the Caribbean Sea, the
Gulf of Mexico will be safe from in
vasion and the great Gulf cities from
attack is too absurd for discussion.
The Gulf of Mexico is a vast body of
water, more than thousand miles
across, and the entrances oft from
the open sea through the Florida
Straits and through the Yncatan pas
sage are ninety and more than a
hundred miles wide, respectively. A
| fleet in the Caribbean would be as
| impotent to protect the Gulf as Samp
sons squadron was to prevent Ger
vera from entering Santiago harbor
| While the protection of the Panama
Canal is an important duty of the
navy. the protection Of the Gulf coast
and the mouth of the Mississippi is
