METH0DISTS DEFEND
THEIR WORK In ITALY

PHILADELPHIA, May 1S.-The board
of bishops of the Methodist Episcopal
church: through its secretary, Bishop L.
b. Wilson, tonight issued an official
statement prepared by the board at It's
meeting In Chicago on May 8 relative
to the Italian mission. Tho statement is
In Rome caused by the visit of Colonel
Roosevelt. The statement in part fol-

"Deporing and at all times seeking to

their validity cannot be tested before the

rather than of reason.

Cures for Sleepiessness.

; In nearly all hospitals wheke there
are patients in an excitable cono. ton
who cannot sleep and where it would
be injurious to give narcotics, the fol-
lowing method is adopted. A hot
water bottle is covered with flannel
and placed at the feet. A thin tissue
bag of thinnest silk rubber is par
TALLY filled with cold water and placed
to the base of the brain. This is about
ten inches long and six inches wide.
as soft as silk and only half filled
with cold water, so it does not feel
bulky back of the head. In many
cases the patient goes to sleep within
few minutes, because this draws the
blood from the active brain, which
is one cause of insomnia. When the
patient is extremely nervous, a crack
al spread with butter and sprinkled
slightly with cayenne pepper is eaten.
This heats the stomach. The stock
ing wound around the neck, not too
close. yet rather snug, is an old meth
cd, for it does not retard the flow of
blood from the head to the arteries,
but it does retard the flow to the
head, just as the cold water assists.
All these methods are simple, effec.
tive and harmless.

Automobiles And Clothes.

wooden manufacturer recently con-
fided to The Springfield Republican
that the automobile was in part to
blame for the. slack demand for all
the goods that go to the making of
mems clothing. His idea was that
persons now wear their second best
suits in the cars, and this preserves
their best garments for longer use.
Hence the tailor is not kept busy and
of course the tailor is the mill mans
chief customer. There is no doubt
FEASIBILITY to this notion. The manu-
facturer who expressed it considered
it a solid and disagreeable fact 1t is
entirely probable that one effect of
automobile riding is to prolong the use
of garments which heretofore would
have ben thrown away, and it is to
be remembered that the number of
persons daily using the machines is
nsiderable-perhaps 10000 in the
state Still the clothes must wear out
some time and automobile riding helps
that process if anything does. 1t may
be that all the people-and the MAORI
ty don't use motor carS-are econ
omizing in money spent for their gar
ments. If so they cannot be con-
demned. for economy is wealth.

McEnery and the Tariff.

The death of Senator Samuel Doug
las McEnery of Louisiana, brings TO
mind his vote for the DingIey tariff
bill. There was talk of reading him
out of the democratic party for his
recreancy. But Louisiana was we'll
sugar, rice and other local industries
that needed protection. When he re-
turned home early in August, 1897, aft
er the adjournment of congress, the
democracy of New Orleans gave him
a public reception at the Grand Opera
house and he made a speech in which
he said:
THE democratic senator from CAL
ifornia voted for high tariff on borax
because California is a borax- produc
ing state. The democratic senator
from Kentucky earnestly worked and
voted for wood alcohol and the demo-
and South Carolina favored the pro-
lection of rice and lumber. Why did
they aid and assist in making the bill
protective and then vote against it q?
The interests they advocated would
have been lost by the defeat of the
bill. 1 voted for the interests OF Lou
isiana. 1 secured the protection we
desired and l did not intend to lose it
by taking any chances of the defeat
of the bill. Nor was / willing to
ask for Louisiana what 1 would not
grant to other states
In 1909, in 1897, Senator McEn-
cry. an honest man who had the cour-
age of his convictions, voted for a
republican tariff bill, and to the peo-
pie of New Orleans he could have
repeated the speech ne made to his
fellow citizens after the passage of
the Dingley bill.-New York Sun.

One Hundred Officers and Enlisted
Men Expected Thursday.

About 100 officers and enlisted men

head OF the school of instruction 9th
er officers to be details there as in
structors are Capt. L. Mccarthy Little
and Capt. Logan Seland. Captain Lit
tie is to be acting qUartermaster of
the station.
The news that the marines are
coming so soon is welcome The bar
racks were erected months ago, and
until recently nothing had been done,
leading to the rUmOr that the idea of
a school was to be abandoned.
few weeks ago General Eliot,
commanding the marines, came
there. His recommendation that the
school be located there was folio wed
by the ordering there of the officers
and men. In addition to the instruc-

He Got the Candy.

A country doctor who took his two
small children, boy and girl, around
with him one day on his visits, had
forbidden them to accept candy, PEN
MES, or other offerings where he Wis
tied. One day. while looking after the
wife of his grocer, he left the two chill
dren in the store. The grocer made up
a bag of candies and cakes and Of
fered it to the children. The little girl
declined, saying: Papa has told us
not to accept presents" AS the grocer
was putting the bag back on the coun-
ter, the boy. who had been regretfully
cycling the retreating bag, said: Papa
said We mustn't take them, but he
didn't say 1 mustn't let you put them

How He Got Away,

The Meriden police force had a fun
ny and annoying experience the other
night and one that had come near
making it the laughing stock of the
whole of Connecticut. The police had
arrested man % years old and taken
him to the police station. Burglary,
committed in Southington, was the
charge. While he was being booked
at the Meriden police station an Off
Ger stood on each side of him while
the chief entered him on the record
Suddenly the man made a dash out of
the station with the chief and two Of
ficers after him. Although he ran
through open territory and climbed
to a roof being in sight practically all
the time he got away from his pur-
suers. The whole thing is as funny
as a comic opera-that is, it is funny
to every one except the officers gho
let him get through their fingers
