walls OF Picking in the campaign for the
relief of the legations during the Boxer OUT
break, and who afterward received an ap-
pointment TO West Point as a further
recognition Of that achievement wants to
be an army chaplain. For more than a
year the young officer has been trying to
get transferred to the religious branch of
the service, and several times 1t has looked
as If his ambition would be realized, but
something always happened to Illustrate his
plans.

At the time of the Boxer outbreaks Titus
was an enlisted man Of the Fourteenth in

Cnina under command OF Lieutenant Cen

United states in the International demon

at that time he was only 10 years old, de-
cided to send him to West Point
Titus entered the academy in July 1901,
and Immediately he was marked man.
The cadets had heard all about him, and
as a ''plebe" one of the things required of
him was to show up in unexpected places
at unexpected times and then> to solemnly
announce to whoever happened to be
around: II am the hero of Picking; 1 am
the fellow who first scaled the walls of the
forbidden city"
Titus was game, however. He took his
medicine and soon became one of the most
popular men in the academy. While a
cadet Titus was one of the most active
workers in the Young Mems Christian as
ISOLATION, and was the president of the
organization when he graduated in 1905
When he received his commission he was
ordered back to the Fourteenth, the regi-
ment in which he made his record as an
enlisted man.
When he Joined the Fourteenth as an
officer Titus became intensely interested
in the religious welfare of the men and
was the leader in much of the evangelical
work that was done in the command The
year following his commission in 1906 the
Fourteenth was ordered to Manila, and on
its arrival there Titus became interested
in the work of the Salvation Army and
identified himself with its work among
the soldiers. He was married about that
time. and his wife became and is still his
associate in his efforts for the spiritual
and moral uplift of the American soldier.
Last year Titus announced his intention

of resigning his commission to enter the
ministry, but General Luke Il. Wright, who
had known him in the Philippines and who
was then the secretary of war knew of his
record and decided he was too good man
Taft became president Secretary of War
Dickinson agreed with General Wright, and
so It was that Lieutenant Titus was asked
to remain in the army, with the promise
that he would be made chaplain as soon
as he could qualify for the position.
Under the law no man can be chap
lain in the army unless he is ordained
minister of some religious denomination in
good standing, with recommendation from
some ecclesiastical body of five accredited
ministers from some denomination. Lieu
tenant Titus thereupon decided to be or
dained. A few months ago he was made
a minister of the United Brethren, a relig-
ious body incorporated under the laws Of
Colorado.
Last week Titus took his examination
and the report of the examining board is
now in the hands of Secretary Dickinson.
The board is certain he will make a fine
chaplain but reported that owing to the
fact that the young officer has as yet
had no personal experience, he could not
qualify.
In the meantime Titus remains an off
Ger in the line, and while attending to his
military duties will find a way to get the
pastoral experience that win make him
eligible for the black broadcloth uniform
OF an army chaplain.-New York Times.

Dear Mr. Watson:-I visited four Atlanta

succeeded in getting the first copy of that ex-
quisitely-favored publication 1.-THE Jeffersonian'

fessional and refined medical advertisements q
wonder If the self-conscous editor took to him
self that eloquent eXhortation in large type

preciated: it shall be handed down to my chill

You pointed out mistake-''a fb'' you called

My memory for dates is poor: can seldom recall,
without looking up the books, when such epochi-
cal events occurred the landing of William the
Conqueror, the arrival of the Pilgrim Fathers at
Plymouth Rock, the Battle of Waterloo, and the
candidacy of Thomas E. Watson for half the vice

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Mr.. Ellis has gentlemanly way with him
in doing everything. A more fascinating
type of Christian, it would be difficult to find.
When caught in one erroneous statement he
mends matters by making another.
He says that his memory for dates is
poor. He can not even locate historical
events that are ''epOchicaE'
What pity. A man who rushes down
South, from Yankeedom, to dare me and de-
nounce me, ought at least to be able to prop
cry place occurrences that are 'epochicaz"
Well, Ellis this was not case of memory
for dates. You were stating fact, not a
date. You distinctly, positively, and DELHI
eratel!y acrote, that you recalled me as B,ya,e's
running mate and that during that cam
Paign, you odrised Bryan to read mig "Life of
Thomas Jeferson". No date was given, at
all
You wanted to be very smart and sarcas-
tic: you were stuog because I declined to
meet you on the ground practically, that you
aoere beneath my notice. And to even up, as
we'll as you could, you were attempting to
prove that, in your section, had never been
heard of, excepting as Bryan's running mate
