Police Methods In Berlin.

Berlin is the most strictly governed
city in the world. and stranger will
be continually violating the ordinances
and regulations without being con-
scious of his offenses. But the penal
ties are not severe, and the policeman
who arrests you is prepared to i'm
pose the fine on the spot instead of
calling a patrol wagon and taking you
to the police station. You pay him a
few marks. for which he gives you
receipt. and within twenty-four hours
you must appear before the captain
in charge of that precinct and turn
in the receipt as check upon the po-
liceman who has arrested you.

TUBERCULOSIS SUNDAY.
Two Hundred Thousand Churches Have
Been Enlisted to Observe 1t.

Two t7undred housand Churches Have
Been Enlisted to Observe 1t.
April 30 has been set aside this year
as Tuberculosis day" and will be OBJ
served in 100000 churches in the coun-
try in manner similar to that of "tu-
beculOsis Sunday" in 1910, when over
$4,000 sermons were preached on the
prevention of consumption. In the Off
cial announcement of the occasion
made by the National Association For
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis the leaders of the movement
state that they hope to enlist all of
the 33,000,000 church members in the
country.
In one respect tuberculosis day will
differ from tuberculosis Sunday of
1910. Instead of requesting the
churches to give to the tuberculosis
cause special Sunday service, the
National association is going to ask
this year that meetings at which the
subject Of tuberculosis and its preven-
ton can be discussed be held on Sun
day, April 80, or on any other day
near that date, either in the week pre-
ceding or the week following.
The National association is planning
to gather statistics from thousands of
ministers, showing how serious prob
lem tuberculosis is to every church.
These figures will show among other
things the number of deaths last year
from tuberculosis in the church con
gregatiOn, and the Ways in which the
pastors are called on to minister to
sufferers from this disease. 1t is
planned also to issue millions of circu.
lars and pamphlets on the prevention
Of tuberculosis, both from the national
Office and from the headquarters of the
450 antituberculosis associations who
will cooperate in the movement.

Napoleon's PeepnoIes.

A curious Napoleonic relic still pre-
served in st. Helena is pair of shut
tiers, each with peephole. st. Helena
was strongly garrisoned in Napoleon's
time for divers reasons, and the Brit
ish soldiers exercised on Deadwood
plain, close to Longwood.
Napoleon liked to look at them, but
did not like them to look at him;
hence those two shutters, one with
hole on a level with his eye while
standing and the other with a hole
adapted to his vision while seated.

PRESIDENT TAFT
TO PUBLISHERS

tiOns in a Clear Light.
HE FLAYS ANNEXATION TALK.
Uni ed States Has All II Can At
tend 10 Win the Terri
tory Il Is Now
Governing.

New York Reciprocity with Can
ada must be adopted now or never
and must stand or fall by its own
terms. Amid tremendous applause
and the waving of handkerchieis so
declared President Taft in an ad-
dress at the Waldorf-Astoria at the
fourth annual joint banquet OF the
Associated Press and the American
Publishers Association. His address
was the first of a series in which he
plans TO evoke public sentiment IN
support of his policies, and he ap-
pealed to the company Of editors ana
newspaper owners, gathered from the
length and the breadth of the land
TO impress in the public mind that
reciprocity should stand alone and
ought not to be affected in any re-
gard by other amendments to the
tariff law" His recommendations
were warmly cheered.
All talk of annexation he charac-
terized as "bosh" and said that the
United States has all it can attend
to with the territory It is now gov
erning lie praised the House of Rep
/ resentatives for its passage OF the
agreement; declared that 1t would
not injure the farmer nor any special
class, answered in detail the objec-
tions that have been raised to reci-
procity and begged for at least "a
kind of test" to dispel the ghosts "ex-
/ hibited to frighten the agricultural
classes"
81 have said that this was a criti-
cal time In the solution of the ques-
ton of reciprocity" concluded the
President. 1T is critical because un-
less II is now decided favorably IA
reciprocity 1t is exceedingly probable
that no such opportunity will ever
again come TO the United States. The
forces which are at work in England
and in Canada will derive an
impetus from the rejection of this
treaty and If we would have reciproc
ity with all the advantages that
have described and that | earnestly
and sincerely believe will follow III
adoption, we must take It now or give
Il up forever"

PLANT TREES.

II In rs years the present supply OF
timber in this country will be exhaust
ed. at the present rate Of consumption,
Tho admonton to plant trees becomes
eloquent with meaning. There is
great value IN trees, says the Kansas
City Times The big lumber fortunes
have been made in the main, not in
buying and selling lumber, nor even
In manufacturing lumber for sale, but
In buying vast tracts Of timber land
I'D holding them for the inevitable
)dvances in timber prices incident to
hs rapidly decreasing supply. Now
h would not profit any man or cor.
peratlon to buy large areas Of land
that could be profitably used for agri-
culture, fruit growing or grazing, and
set them in trees but 1t would be
profitable for all who own timber
lands that could not be profitably
used for other purposes to maintain
them as permanent forests, using
only the matured trees and cutting
them and clearing the slash in such a
way as to give the best possible pro
lection to the immature timber Al
so, II would be profitable to every
owner OF land to plant trees on any
part of It that cannot be utilized for
other purposes II this great nation
could inspire its andholders with
this one purpose for a given time, to
the end that all land that should be
planted with trees would be so plant.

Easton, Pa.-Eight persons lost
their lives, several are missing and
believed 10 be dead and half a hun
dred others were injured at Mar
tins Creek, n. j., in a wreck of an
excursion train carrying 40 school
teachers and friends from Utica and
Syracuse, n. Y, and vicinity to
Washington for a weeks outing.
The train was one furnished the
teachers by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western Railroad, and
the accident occurred while 1t was
travelling at high rate Of speed over
stretch Of track controlled by the
Pennsylvania Railroad. The loco
motive jumped the track, the cars
toppled over and were set on fire by
exploding oil, the wrecked coaches
having sideswiped an oil tank along
the track when they left the rails.
The entire train was quickly en-
yeloped in flames and completely
consumed by the Are. The eight
missing persons, seven of whom were
women and lived in Utica, are be-
lieved to have been burned to death
in the wreckage The finding OF
charred bones led the railroad wreck
ing crews to the conclusion that they
are dead
The most seriously injured were
removed to the Easton Hospital
where two of them, Miss Eleanor r
Rutherford, a Utica teacher, anC
Charles VI. Parsons, of Stroudsburg
Pa, a Pennsylvania Railroad conduc
tor, died at night.
The cause of the wreck has not ye
been determined. The place wher'
the accident occurred had been un
dergoing repairs and unfinished worl
may have been responsible for th'
train leaving the track.

DISPLEASING TO UNCLE SAM
Reported Statement by Vice Presi'

IL Be Repudiated.

Washington D. C.-The reported
declaration Of Ramon Corral vice
president Of Mexico, that Americans
we're fomenting trouble in his coun-
try IN order to force Intervention, has
encountered the disi5yor Of the Unit
ed States government, The State
Department has called the matter to
the attention OF Mexico in order to
establish officially whether the Inter
view with the Vice-President, In
which the statements excepted to
are said to have been made, was
authentic, as published In Mexico
City.
The question will be taken up by
Ambassador Wilson at Mexico city,
10 whom the department telegraphed
a copy of an official statement which
II had issued unequiyocally disproy-
ing the alleged utterance.
The statement expressed the conf
dent belief that the Mexican Foreign
Office will promptly "repudiate and
prevent the promulgation OF any
such statements, calculated so seri-
ously to disturb the mutual con-
fdence and friendly good understand
ing between the two PEOPLES"

Washington, D. C.-Victor Berger,

legislation enacted by the House OF
Representatives. All this is proposed
as an amendment TO the Constitu-
ton. which, If pettioned for by 3 per
cent. of the voters in each state,
shall be submitted to a general refer
endum.
THE Senate has run its course
said Mr. Berger after his threaten

the hopper on the speakers desk. II
must some day, as with the British
House Of Lords, yield to the popular
demand for Its reformation or aboli-

The resolution was not referred TO
the Judiciary Committee until after
several hours delay caused by rails
ing the question as to whether
clause in the preamble attacking the
Senate might not be violation OF

er OF a State nor of It's people, but
solely of certain predatory combina-

MAD EROS VIEW OF 1T.

El Paso, Tex.--General Madero,
speaking of the alleged interview
with Vice-President Corral concern
ing the United States, had this to
say:
81 am not sure that Corral made
the statement credited to him, but
do know that when the revolution
was in the formative stage 1t was
part of the Diaz-Corral strategy to
give the impression that the United
States would intervene in behalf Of
the Mexican government. This was
TO make us appear unpatriotic.
However, the revolution got un-
der way and is winning, yet there has
been no Intervention The govern
ment, therefore, is now trying to
make it appear that the revolt does
not owe its spread to the unpopular
ity Of the administration, but to
foreign elements which they allege
have come to the aid of the upris-
ing"
