CIVILIZATION MAKES FOR
LARGE ARMY AND RAVY
English Cabinet Goes on Record for
Armament During Absense of Pre-
mier rAsquith---President Taft Praised.

LONDON, March 14.-Sir Edward
Gray, foreign secretary, leading the
house of commons last night in
Premier Asquiths absence, made an
important pronouncement of the gov
ernment naval policy.
Reginald McKenna, first lord of
the admiralty, explained that in
1914 Great Britain would have 80
and Germany 81 Dreadnoughts.
This, he said, was not an unrea-
sonable margin The size of the
British navy will probably be gov
erned by that of Germany.
Secretary Gray, affirming McKen-
mas statements, emphasized the cor
diality of Great Britain and the
United States. He pointed out ii
was the most civilized nations that
spent the most for armaments and
asserting unless mischief brought
home mems feelings as well as their
minds the growth of armament
must, in the long run, break civil
ization down Some thought, the
secretary continued, that it would
end in war. He thought more like.

ly it would end in international
peace.
Anyway, the rivalry would not
be stopped by any single nation
dropping out of the race Although
Great Britain had a strong navy,
her army was small and her agree
ment with Germany needed careful
handling. He was hopeful, how
ever. that something might be done.
Any real limitations of ornaments,
he declared, must depend on the
nations learning like individuals,
to resort to law instead of arms.
He referred to President Tafts ar
bitration speech as bold, courageous
and pregnant with consequences,
and said:
"Such statement ought not to
go down without a response. We
should be delighted to have such a
proposal made us. We should feel
there was something so momentous,
with far-reaching possibilities that
it would require not only the sig
nature of both the governments, but
the deliberate, decided sanction Of
parliament. This. 1 believe, would
be given''

RENO HAS old
ENGLAND BEAT
TO A FRAGILE
DURING 1910 DIVORCE PETI-
TIONS IN BRITAIN TOTALED
ONLY 787.

LONDON, March 14.-Sir John
Macdonnell's latest report on the
law courts issued contains long
analysis of the divorce cases. The
conclusion is:
Divorce petitions in 1910 number
ed 7S7, against SAG in 1909, but
the DEGREES granted numbered 6S5,
against 672.
In almost one-half of the divorces
the marriage has lasted from ten
to twenty years, and in about one
third between five and ten years.
Petitioners for the most part be-
long to the middle classes. A
small number are engaged in farm
ing, mining or domestic service.
Out of 110 petitions, eight-one
were by wives. But among mer-
chant, shippers, mates and seamen,
postal employees, civil servants, sol
diers and naval seamen and police
the majority of the petitions were
presented by husbands. Out of the
thirty-fiye petitions involving actors
musicians and the like, twenty-five
were by wives.
In 40 per cent of the unhappy
marriages there was no child and in
25 per cent there was only one
child of the union. Parents of 81,
or more children we're involved II
only one of every fifty divorce cases
The number of petitions from thu
working classes were 27O out of thu
total of 7S7, being slightly NOR,
than in 1909, and slightly few thar
in 1908.

SOME PROVISIONS OF
TREATY WITH JAPAN

WASHINGTON, March 14.-In
view of the fact that the United
States senate failed to remove the
seal of secrecy of the new treaty
of commerce and navigation between
the United States and Japan, rati-
fed February "a, the state depart
ment yesterday made the conven
tion public.
The only new feature in connec-
ton with it made known yesterday
was an announcement by the state
department that the United States
and Japan shortly will negotiate a
consular treaty relating to the priv.
ileges and duties of consular officers
in the two countries.
1t is explained that this conven,
tion will amplify the general pro
vision relating to consular officers
contained in the treaty of com
merce and navigation by whicl
their usual rights and immunitiei
are guaranteed.

Tonopah as "Frenchy," against

RUSSIA SLIPS
The BUCK UP
TO CHINESE
CONTROVERSY LASTING TWO
WEEKS TO Be BROUGHT
TO HEAD BY "LION."

ST. PETERSBURG, March IA
Russia has sent an ultimatum to
China insisting upon closer adher-
ence to the provisions of the treaty
of 1881 which has been the. subject
of negotiations between the two
countries for several weeks.
The Russian occupation corps is
within a hundred miles of the
frontier and marching on Kulja.
Only the immediate execution of
China's treaty obligations, toward
Russia, can interrupt the advance
of the army which is to occup;
Kulja. Two brigades of sharp
shooters, four sotnias of Cossacks
two batteries of field guns, and
eight batteries of machine guns
were dispatched from Margelan
shortly after the receipt of China's
second reply.

Wolfe Tone is considered by many
students of Irish history to be cas-

The Wolf Tone club has come to
Tonopah to stay, and will surely
be heard from in a social sensa in
the future, especially on such days
as the 18th of March. 1t is certain
that this initial function will make
for the new club many friends in
Tonopah.

rhe Worth 81 thn Voice.

How wonderful is the human voice!
1t is indeed the organ of the soul!
The intellect Of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye, and the heart of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet
of old in the still, small voice, and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul of man is audible, not visible.
A sound alone betrays the flowing of
