at being "one body, and many times

The author of Acts uses the following

and one soul. The church is figure
lively described as kingdom,
household a house. temple, body. bride

which implies unity.
THE church divided into denomina

MAIL OFFICIALS
 OUT OF OFFICE

Washington, November 23.-Post- master General Hitchcock today or dered the removal from the postoffice service of Edward F. Blodgett, super intendent of stations, and of Jones F. Norton and S. F. Giles, clerks, all in the Atlanta. ,postoffice as the result of gross irregularities In the weighing of newspaper mail.
 The order followed an investigation of the Atlanta office into irregular ities which the postoffice department declared covered several years and re- suited in the loss of many thousands of dollars to the department. The de- partment announced in connection with this order that a general investiga- tion of methods of weighing second class mail throughout the country Is now being conducted by inspectors with the idea of detecting and bring ing to an end such irregularities as those disclosed at Atlanta. Because Of inefficiency in the discharge of his duties the superintendent of the rail way service at Atlanta, l.. M. Terrell, who failed to take the precautionary measures required by the postal regu- lations. to prevent certain of the ir- regularities, was transferred by the Postmaster Generals order from his position of responsibility to a minor position in the service. Superintendent G. W. Pepper of the railway mail di- vision having headquarters at Cleve- land, has been assigned to Atlanta to supercede Superintendent Terrell. Clyde M. Reed, superintendent of the division of railway adjustments in the postoffice department was sent to Cleveland to take the place of Superintendent Pep per-
 MT. Reeds position in the depart ment has been filled by the promo tion of c. H. McBride, formerly as- sistant superintendent of the division of railway adjustments.
 The evidence obtained Tn the inves- tigation at Atlanta has been submit- ted by the Postmaster General to the department of justice and that depart ment will determine the question Of prosecution.

TRYING TO FORGE
 HAND OF LODGE

Boston, November 23.-That the se- lection of a United States senator to sue ceed Henry Cabot Lodge be postponed until the incoming legislature has had an opportunity to enact a bill providing that the question be submitted to popu- lar vote is the proposition made to Sem ator Lodge in a statement issued by >Governor-elect Eugene N. Foss tonight. MT Floss agrees to use his influence with sufficient number of democratic leg islators to secure this end If Senator Lodge will do the same with republican representatives. The statement says In part:
 that the matter of senatorial selection be referred to the people for their de- cision at the polls next fall unless the legislature in it's wisdom shall decide the question before that time.
 If Senator Lodge is willing to abide by the popular decision, invite him to join with me in the agreement that there shall be no selection made by the in- coming legislature and that law such as prevails in many states shall be en- acted to secure the popular verdict in the general election of l911 In this wise the matter can be determined by popular vote and it rests with Senator Lodge to say whether he is willing to take the judgment of the people. If he is not, then it must be evident that he wishes to obtain this office without regard to the will of majority of the people and
 indeed, to occupy it against the will of a majority"

RAILROADS ARE
 WASTING MONEY

Washington, November 25.-A saving of $500, ,Oo0,o0O annually in railroad operat- ing expenses in this country might be accomplished by the adoption of scien- tifio methods of management according to Harrington Emerson, mechanical en- gineer expert of New York city, who tes- tifed before the interstate commerce commission today. This estimate, which is identical with the amount named by Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island as possible economy in the administration of the federal government on business principles, was made in the course of the hearing on the proposed freight rate ad- vances in official classification territory Today's session of the commission con sisted mostly of discussion of scientific management by expert witnesses. This line of testimony was closed late In the afternoon when the committee adjourned until Friday.

SUFFRAGETTES
 STILL ACTIVE

London, November 23.-The house of commons completed it's fiscal business to- day and will adjourn until Monday, when the King holds a council to complete for malities In connection with the dissolu- ton of parliament.
 The house of lords coupled the evening in a discussion of Lord Lansdowne's res- stions. Lansdowne said the opposition t red the resolution as the best substi- { l5 they could provide for the govern ment's scheme. No full and complete set clement, he declared, was possible except on the basis of the reform and recon struction of the house of lords The dis crsson brought out no noteworthy points and the house adjourned.
 The interesting announcement was made tonight that William Redmond will con- test William O'Brien's seat for Cork.
 The suffragettes continued their activ- ities tonight. Besides creating distur- bances around the parliament se..6ings, many of them invaded and clambered on the roof of a hall at St. Pancras, where Chancellor Lloyd-George was making a speech. They interrupted the chancellor at various periods, but the speaker was unperturbed, merely saying:
 Take no notice of those cats mewing."

REDUCED RATES
 UPHELD BY COURT

San Francisco, November 23.-Ruling that none of the allegations of the rail- road companies had been proved, Judges Ross, Gilbert and Morrow, sitting en banc in the United States circuit court here today, declined to enjoin the interstate commerce commission from reducing freight rates on certain commodities be- tween Missouri river shipping points and terminals in Washington, Oregon, Neva- da and Arizona.
 Judge Gilbert, who delivered, the de- cision orally declared that the ruling of the interstate commerce commission re- ducng the rates was neither confscatory, arbitrary nor discriminatory.
 He said none of the bills submitted by the attorneys for the railroads showed that the reduced rates would prove conics- catory; that the rates were arbitrary
 ,-.4t be possible, but so long as no law was transgressed, the court held, the commission was empowered in it's dis 0retion to enforce rates which were ar itrary.
 The contention of the railroads that the blanket rate fixed by the commission was discriminatory was held to be a matter for future decision, as the railroads. by ixing rates below the figures set by the commission could obviate the blanket isature. In conclusion, the court held
 at the petition for permanent inJunc- ton had not been sustained in any part, and ordered all the bills dismissed.
 The court then requested the attorneys 0 agree on a date for the trial of the
 rec original suits brought by the rail- way companies against the interstate
 ae commission to prevent the rate reduction.

IRON BUSINESS IS
 STILL VERY QUIET Improvement of Last Week
 Does Not Keep Up RAILROADS CUT DOWN Manufacturers of Iron Products That Railroads Use Are Feeling Severe
 Iy the Policy. of Railroad
 Retrenchment
RAILROADS CUT DOWN

Cleveland, Ohio, November 23.-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 The improvement In pig iron and was not continued.
 It now seems probable that business will be rather quiet for the remaind CT of the year. Those steel castings, malleable and other interests, which de- pend very largely upon the railroads, are feeling very severely the policy of railroads of limiting purchases to ab solute necessity. In the pig iron mar ket there has been more activity in basic than in other lines, quotations on this grade being somewhat firmer.
 Although rail business amounting to about 100000 tons Is in an advance stage of negotiation In the east, about one-third of this tonnage being for the Pennsylvania. The slowness with which railroad business Is developing is rather discouraging. A large number of structural contracts are pending in the west and 1t is said that good sized contracts will be soon made. In Chi cago alone 16,000 tons are pending, including 74OO tons for the Otis build ing and 66OO tens for the Brooks es tate building.
 About 22,OO0 tons are involved in contracts now pending in the far west, not including 3A000 tons that will be required for a large railroad project.
 western fran of general contractors has taken about 800 tons for a sugar factory In Colorado and the Northwest ern Steel company, Portland, Ore, will furnish, 1000 tons of beams for the Corbett building.
 Portland, Ore. the Phoenix Iron com pany, has been awarded 1000 tons for additions to the Union League club of Philadelphia.
 New inquiries include 1900 tons for a public school at San Francisco; 700 tons for a courthouse at Sacramento and 5000 tons for the Baltimore Bar gain House, Baltimore, and 800 for the Pingree estate building, Detroit.
 The Carnegie Steel company has made a cut in the price of structural beams from store at It's Waverly, N. J., warehouse, about $4 per ton. This reduction Is in harmony with the more aggressive policy recently adopted by the Pittsburg district in regard to warehouse business. Although mill prices have not been changed the re- duction will affect eastern manufac- turers who have had stocks on hand.

MEMPHIS FAILED
 TO RETAKE CENSUc

Washington. November 23.--Replying to the criticism of the census bureaus enumeration of the population of Mem phis. Director Durand has written a let ter to Supervisor Farley. who had charge of the census work in that citN in which he declares that the remuneration of Memphis was as complete and correct as that of any other large city in the United States"
 He says that unusual precautions were taken to make the record accurate, and that when the committee of citizens came to see him in the interest of a recoun it was proposed to them that the city itself should make comple @ canvass This proposition was declined. Tt was doubtless recognized.'' says MT. Durand that the total number of narnes that could possibly be added to the census of Memphis by such a recheck would

crowd again. While he did not repeat his performance of Tuesday, when he smashed into an orchard, he came within an ace of an accident, both in rising and landing.
 By marvelously quick work his broken machine had been placed in first-class order, the crushed wings being replaced. But again he had trouble in getting off the ground with his little 3O-horsepower motor. During the first lap of his flight he was never more than 15 feet off the ground, and once his planes barely missed the fence around the race track But he climbed slowly, tenaciously con- tinuing the fight, and reached several hundred feet. After soaring for about six minutes. he made what seemed success fuT landing, but was unable to shut off the motor, and when the machine seemed about to run down little hill and crash Into the fence Ward threw himself out In front, grasping the rods which connect the ascending planes, and the plucky youngster single handed, with his feet blowing up the ground, brought the wild airship to a stop and saved 1t from in jury.
 Crowd Was Very Small
 The crowd at neither yesterdays or Tuesdays meet numbered over 1000. The parades in the city seemed to hold the crowds, and the meet did very poor busi- ness. Ely nopeu 10 stay over today, Dut could not have the field on account of the football game. He will leave today for Mobile, where he puts on a series of flights.
 Mrs. Ely Is a bright. black-eyed litse lady of about her husbands stature. She was dressed in very pretty black vel vet suit, wearing a unique crocheted cap on her head. She calls 1t "our machine, D and is never very far from the operator d11ripo the naapf She ic a a11tbnritxr or aviation matters, and declares that she will take lessons and learn to fly aero planes upon their arrival at Los Angeles this spring.

be too small to justify the labor and ex- pense."
 Accounting then that an investigation had been made by the bureau in three of the wards of the city, with the result of omissions amounting to only per cent had been discovered, MT. Durand says:
 Tn view of the fact that the districts rechecked were those selected as being most likely to show omissions, that the conditions in these districts were peculiar and not existing in the larger part of the city, and that the proportion of omission found in those districts was comparative ly small I feel convinced that the cen sus of Memphis is as .rearly correct as 1t is possible to make It."
 Mir Durand charges that the census of 1900 was padded" to the extent of 15,000 or 10000 names, and in this alleged cir cumstances finds explanation for the comparatively small increase shown by the census for 1910.

 Like Shooting the Chutes
 'It feels just like you were shooting the chutes all the time,' she said, after ward, "but I found it great. Do you know, I forgot to be sociable. I didn't say a word. Yes, you seemed to be mighty far away when I was way up there, but I wouldn't take anything for the experience" E
 The Curtiss machine is not intended for q passenger, and there is no seat so arranged, but the passenger has to sit on the plane. The only accident to the aeroplane as a result of the ride was a broken rib.
 Mrs. Sullivan Is the daughter of pr.

 Other Thrilling Events
 But the afternoon yesterday was re- plete with other exciting incidents After two spins of five minutes each around the field, on his third trip Ely went about 1000 feet in the air and went off toward the east about a mile, until his machine was a little spot on the horizon. Re turning, like the wind, he made a head long glide from this height of about 500 feet directly to the ground, landing gracefully on the run way.
 se Next was the race against the automo- bile. Kapps, in an E. M. F., defeated Ely in the two-mle race, which was sched- uled, but they continued for five miles, and on the last three laps Ely swooped down over the track to within 15 feet of the ground as they passed the grand stand He came so low that the automo- bile driver and his mechanic tucked ther heads. On the last lap the aeroplane passed the grandstand in the lead by a nose. It was an inspiring scene, and gave the spectators some idea of the terrific speed at which the airship was moving.
