MEYER PLANS ECONOMY
Expects to Make Large Saving
in Repairs on Ships.


washington. April 1s-Secretary Meyer
has under consideration an important eco
noufc change in the method OF making
repairs and alterations on ships OF war lie
believes he has discovered means by
which the cost OF such periodical Work
will be greatly reduced He purposes 20
look thoroughly into the question before
adopting any new rule, and the result OF
his consideration is bound 10 be OF much
interest TO members OF the civilian force
employed a. the principal navy yards, and
especially at Brooklyn. II is believed that
much Of the work now done seni-6nnually
az navy Yards can be performed by mem
bers Of the crews OF the feet, either at
Sea when the crew IS not otherwise en-
gagged. or at the navy yards, on which
occasions Of course assistance will be rem
dered by the civil force.
The Secretary believes that a great deal
OF work now turned over to the civilian
navy yard force can be done at the yards
BY enlisted men attached 70 the various
ships. This force is practically idle while
q vessel is at a navy yard. and il is be-
lieved that with the variety of trained men
in the enlisted force IL will be possible 70
depend on them for much Of the work now
done on a per diem basis.
There may be objections 70 this on Tie
part OF those interested in the employment
Of civilians at the navy yards. but the
Navy Department II Secretary Meyer
adopts this plan. will be in A position TO
reply that the proceeding Is entirely in the
interest OF the government. and II it can
be shown that the cost Of maintenance Of
ships in commission can be greatly reduced
there should be no effective complaint
against the Navy Department. Mr. Meyer
is Of the opinion that this would be the
process adopted by a commercial plant
which had 10 do with the keeping OF ships
IN condition for service. There would be
utilization OF the men attached 10 the ships
in work which they are able 70 do, and for
which, in many cases. they are specially
ftted-ss much as the mechanics employed
IN the civilian force.
II is too early to predict the result Of
Mr.. Meyers investigation. but the indica-
tons are that the navy yard force will be
used less and less. and merely as neces-
sary assistance in connection with the work
which can be done effectively and eCOnOm-
iCallv bv the ships force.

The opening on Tuesday morning

Broadfeld spoke for an hour dwelling
upon the non-sectarian nature of the
congress, and tracing the broad charac-
ter OF Swedenborg 5 works, showed that
his scientific and philosophical training
was but preparation for the time when
he was led to see that there are two
worlds and that man is spiritual be-
ing.
Count Wrangle, representing the
Swedish government and the house of
mobiles, made an address in which he
paid noble and pathetic tribute to
Swedenborg, stating that the science of
his day did not appreciate his works.

to who is the rightful member Of the

the State, r. f. J.. Mountcastle tonight
gives out a lengthy statement in which
he claims to enjoy the honor Mr..
Mountcaste says he was elected by the

cites the ruling Of that body to show
that no State committee has the right
to remove him as member Of the
committee. that the power OF the
States committee extends only to the
filling Of vacancies. As no vacancy, he
insists, exists in Tennessee's representa-
ton in the national committee, tho
State regular committee exceeded its
powers in declaring such vacancy and
electing Judge Jonn J. Vertrees to fill
it.

ent at the next meeting Of the national

MY MOTHERS BIRTHDAY
Far back in Tennessee there lives to-day
woman old and feeble, bent and gray
Her form is bent by the weight Of years,
Her cheek is furrowed BY the trace of tears.
For eight and eighty years shes fought the fight
That leads through darkness upward to The light.
In all these years no mar or blot or stain
Has rested on my mothers spotless name
Tho years have passed since last her lips prest
In fond farewell. then turned me to the West
In search of health and strength for me and mine
And came to california's sun-kissed cline
Yet sometimes in my vigiis Of the night
When all the brilliant stars shine bright 50 bright
turn my gaze far, far towards the East
And pick me out star, one of the least.
But pure and bright that hangs in heavens dome,
And wonder if it shines upon her home.
And sometimes when the star is bright and fair
l think catch the CLINT Of silvery hair
At other times think that can trace
The profile of my sweet old mothers face.
cannot tell II we again shall meet
TfuOu This earth In IoxFinr converse saueef
But this know VIXEN / shall cross the bar
I'll see my mothers face beyond that star.
