BARGAINS IN PEWs.

Ministers have so many things 10
worry about that it is pretty hard %
add the bargain hunting habits OIL
their parishloners TO their other cares,
hut some of them are doomed to shout
der that extra burden. Old members
of the congregation are not likely to
90 out hunting cut-rate pews in other
churches, but newcomers who are just
deciding on a church home all do it.
"A reduction of 50 a year in pew
rent will fetch the bargain hunter eV-
cry time" said sexton. only last
week an up-States woman who eX-
pects to make her home in the city
concluded that of all city churches OF
this denomination she liked ours
best and would take a pew here, but
when she found that she could get a
pew that suited her about as well in
another church for SO a year less
she let all other considerations go
by the board and identified herself
with that church The cut-rate pew
hunter is a recognized feature of mo-
dern church life, Because a new
member elects to join our congre-
cation does at all signify that he
shares our religious convictions OF
likes our service; it may mean that
we charge less for the pew he likes
than another church upstreet,"

ior Davis was stationed az pcnsa-

letter from Representative Cousins, a
personal friend of Davis. soliciting
from Gen. Elliott the transfer OF Ma.

post, who, the writer said, was soon
TO be- married to Northern girl.
ON the receipt Of the Cousins let.
ter. Gen. Elliott wrote Davis and de-
manded to know what part he took in
having such letter sent him, and II
he had any correspondence on the
matter to forward it to Washington.
In reply Davis wrote: "In accept
ing my commission as an officer in
the Marine Corps | did not give up
my rights as a gentleman, and | re-
fuse to disclose personal correspond
ence' For this he was placed under
arrest for ten days, but was released
at the end of one, owing to the lack
of marine officers at that post
The next interchange of correspon-
dence between Elliott and Davis
came in 1905, when Davis was again
suspended for ten days, but suspen-
sion was removed at the end of one
day.
This occurred when Davis was en-
route to the Philippine Islands. On
board the transport, as he picked up,
as the Navy Regulations require, a
detachment of marines on their way
| to Honolulu. When they arrived
there Davis sent them ashore to re-
port to the commanding officers in
charge of the sergeant Davis's or
ders were for him to proceed to the
Philippines. He received these or
ders at three different times, by let
ter and telegram. But the custom of
the navy is that he should call and
pay his respects to the officer in COM
mand of the post, and for this in
| fringement of custom, when it came
! to the notice of Gen. Elliott, he was
suspended.
/ Apparently when a man is being
tried by a court-martial all past of.

count against him. This made it ne
cessary for the defense to request the
bringing of Admiral Sebree, from the

Navy Department, has refused this
request, but has given the defense
permission to subpoena Mrs. Elva
Davis from Japan, the mother of the
accused, by whom they hope to show
that in an interview with her in
Washington, Gen. Elliott in language
'urf rntlemanly" showed his animus
toward her SON.
The court after six daily sessions
has adjourned to await the arrival
of Mrs. Davis, who is expected this

Felon's Stripes Instead of Fines

"Felon's stripes" as a punish
ment for trust criminals" in the
United States to end commercial
piracy under benevolent rules OF
reason" are proposed in a bill
amending the Sherman antitrust
law, drafted by Representative
Henry, of Texas, to be introduced
in the House upon the opening OF
Congress next month. Its intro
ductiOn probably will mean it's pas
sage in the House.
The bill specifically defines just
what constitutes a trust, legislates
from the present statute the rule
of reason" as Interpreted by the
Supreme Court in the Standard Oil
and Tobacco cases and lprovides as
punishment for violation of the law
Imprisonment from two to ten years
in the penitentiary. 1t will be re-
ferred to the Judiciary Committee.
Representative Henry, who has
been comforting with Representa-
tive Clayton, chairman of the COM
mittee, and other Democratic lead
ers, has completed the draft of the
proposed changes in the much dis
cussed statute.
In explaining his bill, Represen-
tative Henry declared that actual
Imprisonment of great industrial
offenders was essential to a cure for
the trust evil, and that a law to be
rigid must of necessity define a
trust to leave no room for contro-
verSy.

State breaches on Ventilation

Surest and greatest among the
remedies of Nature is the one most
neglected-abundant fresh air-ac-
cording to the November number Of
the Virginia Health Bulletin just
issued.
He who wishes to protect himself
against diseases. or TO have the aid
OF Nature in the cure Of his mala-
dies, should live as much as posi-
BILE in the open air and should al
ways have abundant ventilation in
his sleeping and living quarters.
A marked feature of the Bulletin
is the outlined plans for the ventila-
tion of private rooms. These are
illustrated by cuts showing the
methods by which rooms can be
ventilated at small cost and are &C
companied by the general warning
that in no place where a man lives
is he more liable to the disastrous
effects of foul air than in his own
home, unless he takes precautions.
To meet the demand for literature
on the subject, the Health Depart
mont has issued an edition of 40, :
900 on Fresh Air" Copies OF
this bulletin will be mailed, as usual
to the list of the Health Department
and will be sent to any individual

Flooding The Desert with Water

The Baltimore Sun is our author
lty for the fact that an interesting
project is being urged by scientists
for the con versing of the Desert OF
Sahara into a sea. A large portion
OF the desert lies below the level OF
the sea and it is proposed to cut a
canal from the Mediterranean, which
is only about fifty miles distant, and
empty the refreshing waters upon
a vast waste OF blistering sand.
The economic advantage OF the
enterprise would lie in its value 10
the commerce OF Northern Africa.
If this land, which is not arabic and
is worthless and uninhabited. could
be turned into great body of nav
igable water whose waves would
touch the shores of producing CON-
munities, it would open a great
highway for the transportation OF
merchandise and add to the com.
mercial advantage OF the regions
adjacent.
An important question as to the
effect it would produce upon the
climate must necessarily be consid
cred. The hot winds, sweeping
across the desert. nave great in
huence in modifying the climate
OF Northern Africa and Southern
Europe and the introduction of g
vast body of water might completely
change climate conditions in all this
section. The enthusiastic advocate
OF the plan, however. insists that ar
inland sea would pI omote rainfall in
its vicinity and transform the ariG
wastes contiguous into fertile plains
