RECOGNIZES A GOOD WORK
Ex-President Roosevelt Pays EnthusI-
astlc Tribute to Mission
Hospitals.

In Uganda. Mr.. Roosevelt responded
to an invitation to open a new addt
ton to the Mango C. M. 8. hospital.
Mr.. Roosevelt said:
Long before I came here I had
known OF the work that was being
done in Uganda, and felt particularly
anxious to see it. Here you have a
peculiarly intelligent native race,
which has already developed q vety
interesting culture Of it's own, a Gull
ture both political and social. And tho
great work must of necessity be to try
to help that ICE Onward, and to try
to do 1t N a practical fashion, and to
do it so that the doing of it shall be
primarily a benefit to the race, and,
secondly, a benefit to your own people
from whom you come.
Il have the stronges. feeling as to
the good that is being done by the
medical missionary. Taere must be
some visible fruit in the life and work
of the man who breaches If his preach
Ing is going to have a very great eff
feet upon those to whom he breaches.
That visible fruit can be shown in
many different ways. and one Of the
most efficient ways Of showing 1t is
by just such work as is being done in
connection with this building. which
1t will naturally be a source of pecu-
liar pride to myself to have my name
with, and which l now
take pleasure in declaring to be

An Almost Universal PRAYER.

Among the late Bishop Foss' anec
dotes about prayer" said a Philadel
phia Methodist, there was one con
corning a very original Norristown
preacher.
This preacher, in the course Of q
long prayer n Sunday night, recount,
ed the many misfortunes and evils that
had befallen him In the course of his
long life. Then, signing heavily, he
prayed:
Thou hast tried me with affection,
with bereavement, and with sorrow of
many kinds. If thou are obliged to try
me again, Lord. try me with the bur
den of wealth."

FIotilIa Meets Him at Quarantine.
More than a month ago every avail

been engaged for the day, and nu-

Hamilton club Of Chicago. had char

Early In the morning this immense
1otilla sailed far down the bay, and
when, about 9 o'clock, the scouting

made ready for the first greeting.

out the country. Within a few days,
however. the committee was flooded
with so many applications that the
parade feature had to be in part aban-
doned. Organizations from Maine to
California and from the Gulf to the
Great Lakes requested places in the
line Of march, and If the project had
been carried out, the procession would
have extended from the Battery to
the Harlem river and back again, d

who had travelled hundreds of miles

A SEVERE CRITICISM.

There has been much criticism re-
Gently of the method which is followed
by the government in the disposal of
public lands, which requires the would
be hOmesteader to travel hundreds or
thousands of miles to register for a
drawing when hardly one person in
300 can possibly be successful. One
of the severest critics of this system
in vogue il President Hill of the Great
Northern road. which has been bene-
flied to the extent of millions of dol
lars in car fare through the transporta-
ton of folks to these land drawings.
In speaking of the Flathead Indian
reservation drawing in western Mon
tana. Mr.. Hill says that less than 2
per cent of the people who registered
had chance to draw any land at all,
while good share Of the claims which
were thrown open to entry were well
nigh worthless. He concludes: II have
met lots Of people who gave up good
positions in the east and went out
there. only to be bitterly disappointed.
The thing is entirely impracticable and
on the order of q Swindle to take the
peoples money away and give 1t to the
railroads. In view Of such con-
demnation as this, coming a. il does
from "a beneficiary of the system at
present in vogue, 1t would seem that
Uncle Sam might well see his way
clear to devise more just and less
expensive method of disposing Of his
public domain.

"A CABBAGE SNAKE QUERY.

up in a bunch about as large as a

over this matter three or four years

nection and could be no connection
whatever between the presence Of
these long white worms in cabbages
and the illness or death Of persons eat

lie deaths ever did occur from eating
cabbage they were due rather to the
fact that the cabbages had been sprtn-
killed. with paris green after they had
begun to head or were stale when eat

the process of decay which had al

that it produces poison il entirely
