Rev. A. G. Dixon, ID. D., pastor OF
Moody's church in Chicago, filled
the Metropolitan tabernacle of Lon
don recently.
The British Weekly, commenting
pleasantly upon Doctor Dixon's &C
ceptability in this position, recalls a
story of his first visit to England 20
years ago, and his introduction at
that time to DIR. Charles H. Spur

Spurgeon was seated \one day in
his vestry, a large Bible before him
on the table, about which were gath

BREACH OF LEGAL ETIQUETTE
CONFLICTING Opinions OF MdIIe. Miro
poisky Divide Members Of
Paris Bar.

Conflicting opinions as to the con-
duct Of Mdlle. Miropolsky, a bril-
liant young 'fPortia," divide the
membership Of the Paris bar. Some
days ago it appears Mdlle. Miropol-
sky delivered lecture at the Thea
ter du Chatelet. The young and
handsome "avocate," whose charms
and fascination have caused havoc
among the younger Partisan barris-
ters, appeared in stylish dress, a
ravishing hat, and stole Of the
latest model.
Unfortunately for Mdlle. Miropol-
sky, at the bottom Of the printed
program distributed to the audience
were the words: "The dress and
hat of Mdlle. Miropolsky are from
the 'ateliers' of Mdme. So and &c."
This terrible breach of legal ETH
quette was reported to the council OF
the order, and that grave and
learned body will shortly meet to
sit in judgment.
Meanwhile the bar is split into
rival camps. One side does not see
anything so very dreadful in the en-
terprise of Mdlle Miropolsky's "cou-
turiere," while the other sees moth
ing less than the collapse of the dig
nifty Of the order if such customs
are allowed to gain ground. They
see visions of young barristers indi-
eating their tailor on their cards, OF
giving statistics of their success In
defending their clients.

SHIP BUILDING IN HOLLAND
Not Only Builds Ships for herself,
but Takes Orders From other
Countries.

The usual conception Of Holland
is that Of a land of wide boomers,
wooden shoes, windmills, cheese
works and unbroken placidity. One
scarcely realizes that the Dutch are
a nation of truly great shippers and
sailors. They not only have big sea-
ports and sail ships well, but they
are shipbuilders also. The French
consul at Rotterdam recently re-
ported that 10 large and medium
sized ships we're turned out of Dutch
yards last year, aggregating 1880
tons, while in 1908 there were 76
ships built, totaling only 63,so6
tons. Small sea going craft and
river boats were built to the number
Of 799. The average measurement
Of the vessels built last year was 973
tons.
Holland does not build ships for
herself alone, but receives many or
ders from Germany and various
South American nations as well.
Last year Germany bought on order
6o,760 tons, Belgium 1882 tons,
Great Britain 4,279 tons, Argentina
2,160 tons, and Brazil 1910 tons.
This does not seem so enormous
when one hears that the new sea go
! ing monster Olympic is to measure
up to 10000 tons, but it is good
record for Holland and helps to dis
prove the general notion that Hol-
lands attention is divided between
the contemplation of storks and
tourists.

Popular Mechanics For May.

Science and mechanics have ad-
vanced from the time when they
were the hobbies of few learned
philosophers, secluded in home
laboratories and workshops. or in
the inner retreats of exclusive seats
of learning. They have become, in
the broadcast sense, the principal aids
to human progress. and as such they
belong to everybody. The labors of
the scientist, the inventor and the
e 'ucator are for the people. Per-
nal gain, in the form of nmoney,
advancement of fame. is secondary
matter, although it may, in some
instances, form the motive for the
work. And after all. it is the pro-
ductive work of the people that
makes it possible for learned men
and specialists to discover and invent
things that are making this world of
ours better place in which to live. "
So states the May number of Pop
u'ar Mechanics Magazine in strong
article on Science and Plain
English" in which leading educators
and scientists of the country discuss
the subject. However, one has but
to turn the pages of the magazine
any number will do-to feelj that
these assertions are well grounded
in its practice. The May number
contains 3Ol articles and 293 illus.
trations. every article written 80

WEIRD GAME
BY THE DEACON
BROWN TEAM
VISITORS LACKED SNAP AND
THEIR ERRORS AND OVER
THROWS WERE OF THE COST
LY KIND-suRMEisTER's PITCH
ING WAS ONE OF THE FEA-
TuREs.

The Deacon Browns bit the dust in
the wierdest exhibition Of the season
yesterday. Burmeister worked his
usual fine game and the Deacons were
not in II at any stage of the game
Stewart was as stingy with hits as
Myer with navy yard money, but he
needed a range-finder. Five locals
walked and two were smitten. The
Deacons didn't look good in the mud
and the next heavy bail seemed to
worry them, as their heaving was punk
and figured in the run getting.
The locals slipped one over IN the
third when Burmeister beat out a hit
with two men down and went to sec
ond when Jones was shot on the ell
bow. Gordon grounded TO Tatum, but
Brown missed the throw and Burmeis-
ter counted. With Roache on first and
one down in the fourth Porter hit TO
short; Roache was forced, but Ken
bricks throw, with an easy double in
sight went to the bleachers and Porter
pedaIled to third. Grif11n's grounder
sailed serenity between Hendricks .toot-
sizes, Porter spiking the platter. The
third came in the sixth Roachs was
safe on Blackwelrs wide throw. Gra-
ham singled and Porter beat out a
bunt Bases full. none out. Griffin
drew a pass, forcing Graham In. Bur-
n1eister popped to second, and, al
though the infield fly rule applied with
all the force Of the wool tariff. Abel
sprinted like locomotive running wild
with a full head of steam and a down
hill drag Grimm camped on second
and frantically wig-wagged him to
back paddle, but he flashed by the
Sni1er with the speed of the money
that gets away, and his jumps opined
that he was out Dor passing a proceed
ing runner. This cost two runs, as
Hendricks had thrown to Tatum who
had over hurled first in a vain en-
deavor to encompass Abel's demise via
the double-pIay route Two more came
in the seventh. when Gordon walked
and stole, Lurton walked and both
moved up on a passed ball. Blackwell,
catching, after Chase had been retired,
with a nutilated talon, threw wild to
third and Gordon scored, Lurton NOV
ing up. Roache famed ard was out,
catcher to first, Lurton beating
Browns throw home.
The Deacons grabbed one in the last
thusly: Hicks walked, Hendricks
hunted to Griffin and beat it out on
Burmeister's slow cover. Burmeister
threw wild to uncovered second, Hicks
completing the route.
After Chase was put out with a
wrecked hand. the game deterioated
into q farce, as neither Jones nor
Blackwell were able to carry a very
large portion of the catcher's usual
burden. Chase. however, will be back
in the game today.
Today is Ladies' Day. and the
fanettes are invited TO come in clust-
ers to witness the doings without
charge.
