Pasha of Jerusalem, with his retinue of civil and
military officials, at that time gathered the Be
douins of the region, and gave them presents and,
with great pomp, read message from the Sultan.
AS part of the ceremonies many of the Bedouin
boys brought together to receive presents of
clothing. ETC.. and be crcumcised. But re
port started that this would mark them for
being taken soldiers later, and they fed from
the proposed rite.
These new government stations, and the at
tempts of the officials to ingratiate themselves
with the Bedouins hitherto subject to the gov
eminent, were in pursuance of policy adopted by
the Constantnople authorities about 20 years since
looking to breaking up the old nomadic and indie
pendent life and habits of these of Ishmael-
The plan to get the Bedouin youth into a
special government school for them at CONSTANT
nople, to confer titles and give presents to the
chiefs to gradually push forward among the tribes

of the government, and finally to disarm and enroll
them with a view military service and taxlevy-
ing. However@ but little accomplished
along these lines.
The building Of the Mecca railway, which
hoped would forward the government policy, has,
instead led to complications and conflict. The
road has had to be constantly patroled by mounted
troops, for the Bedouins have been all along greatly
opposed to it, especially because it deprived them
of the very considerable business they had in hr-
ing their camels to carry pilgrims and their bag

of thousands of Moslem pilgrims in Mecca for
their great annual feast the Aid ell Kebr. If
the caravan route from Mecca to Jeddah the
Red Sea, is also held by the Bedouin it would close
the way out to the thousands of pilgrims from
Egypt and India, state of things which would
call for prompt and decisive action. The limited
food supply at Mecca would be quickly exhausted
and could not be easily replenshed.
Much excitement caused in Jerusalem by

The large Bedouin population of Palestine and
the region through which the Mecca railway
tends is divided into many tribes. If there existed
unity of aim and action among them, their oppo-

formidable For these tribes often war

ganization cohesion among them But even
as it is they have presented serious problem to
the government.

Since January 1. 1907, sixty-five open
air schools for children afflicted with
or predisposed to tuberculosis have
been established in twenty-eight cities,
according to an announcement made
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis
The first open air school in the United
States was established on January !,
1907, by the board of education of
Providence, R. l., at the instance of
DR.. Ellen A. Stone. The next school
was established in May of the same
year at Pittsburg, and the third at
Boston in July, 1908. According to
the reports received by the national
association, the result of the open air
.class-work has been to restore most
of the children to normal health and

sheikhs of some of the tribes by the government,
kept them quiet But recently Rizza Pasha,
formerly military governor of Jerusalem, now in
charge of the post at Medina, has attempted to
hold a stronger hand over the unruly tribes, and
he discontinued the payment of the allowances
This led the Bedouins to attack the railway sta
tions, tear up the track etc. This was in the far
south.
The troubles at Karak precipitated by an
attempt of the government to enroll the Bedouins
and dfsarm them. This applied not only to the
Nomadic tribes but to the towns people and vii

alize what carburetion in air-machine
motors means.
Yet the carbureters in flying ma
chimes are very similar to those in
the best automobile engines. To Sc
cure uniformly proportional fuel, it is
necessary that the fuel level in the
atomizing nozzle be maintained fair
ly constant Also for variable speed
engines, 1t is desirable that the car
bureter action be such as not to de-
range the mixture materially through
the suction from different speeds

within the next month we will SEMI to
the Senate the revision OF the cotton
schedule Generally speaking, this will
be followed by a revision Of the sugar
Steel and iron schedules, and the House
will then take up a revision OF the re-
naming and less important schedules Of
the tariff, shooting them over to the
Senate as rapidly as possible.
IT understand that the President may
veto all tariff legislation enactei prior
to the report OF the tariff board. The
public is not inclined at this time TO
accept any such excuse for a delay in
tariff legislation.
The tariff board has been in exist
ence now for something like eighteen
months, and, so far as we are enabled
to ascertain, has learned nothing. At
the close of the debate on the wool bill
the tariff board reported that It had
ule. In view OF that showing the coun-
try will not be inclined to accept as an
excuse for delay that the tariff board
should report upon the various sched- I
ules before any revision Of the tarip
is attempted.
II am Inclined to think that the coal
ition between the insurgents ANDY the
Democrats in the Senate will stick and
II this should prove to be the caee, we
However. such coalitions are Mt to be
depended upon absolutely.
Tn view of the situation IN tIe Senate
to-day, however, I am inclinedfto think
that the session OF Congress VI extend
during the remainder of the( summer,
and hope that the House w be sue
cessful in securing the approfhl OF Its
plans to revise the tariff. The House will
remain at work constantly ant will send

ate as fast as we agree upon them. The
cotton schedule, owing to its Rtricate
nature, will require several weekS con-
sideration, but the other schedules SHOULD
be approved in less time"

The Teaohers, Retirement Fund.

The action of the District Commits
sioners in Disappearing the retirement
bill framed in the interests of the pub
lie school teachers will probably result
in the defeat of that measure, but the
teachers should not allow themselves
TO become discouraged by this adverse
action The Commissioners assert that
they are favorable to a retirement
scheme, although they find much to
criticise in this particular measure.
Through many weary years the teach
ers have labored to secufe legislation
which will allow them some compensa-
ton for service rendered to the cause
OF education. Up to the present time
their efforts have been in vain, and it
may be that the work which they have
done will have to be done over again.
Eventually, however, they will succeed.
They are entitled to the consideration
which they ask, and the delays and en-
barrassn1ents to which they have been
and are being subjected viii sssuredly
be overcome.
incidentally, the Commissioners have
iaterieeted into the situation question:
regarding which there is much differ
ence Of opinion. They want the school
authorities to exercise reasonable
economies and thus make the way
sasier for the creation Of a retirement
fund. The teachers. however, should
not be compelled to wait until it has
been dstsrmined whsshef Or not the

High Cost of Peers.

With the dying out of the agitation
about the high cost of living comes
another problem for this great star
spangled nation to meet. This time the
foe is not the octopus. 1t is a menace
from across the seas, and to Repre-
sentative SABBATH, of Chicago, is due the
glory for sending out the warning.
When he discovered that we are
buying titles for American girls at ex-
orbitant figures his indignation knew
no bounds. He arose on the floor OF
the House, caught the eye of the Speak
er, and proceeded to introduce resolu-
ton of investigation, which he hopes
will settle once and for all the inter-
national marriage question.
Mr. SABBATH learns that despite the
millions which We send along with our
maidens, and which enrich the thin
blooded nobility of Europe, the COM
pensation is not adequate. About the
time they are crowning king, We dis
cover that some of our heiresses who
have bought little coronets cannot wear
them in the procession Some obsolete
rule or regulation is revived, and with
gravity and solemnity they are relegated
to the stands erected for the common
people.
The resolution introduced by Mr.. Sa-
bath directs the Secretary of State to
inquire into the humiliation" that title
bearing American women are forced to
undergo; how many of these jnterna-
tional alliances are being negotiated and
at what figures; whether any of the
coronets are made of pewter or tin, and
whether there is danger of ''titleitis" be-
coming chronic. The House Commit
tee on Foreign Affairs will look into
the matter, and Mr.. SABBATH no doubt
will keep watchful eye upon the reso-
luton.

Proper Equipment of Trains.

The law which has just been signed
by the governor of Pennsylvania, which
increases the personnel Of the crews in
charge of passenger and freight trains
is another indication of the tendency OF
State legislatures to regulate railroads
within their own boundaries. This
statute provides that every freight train
of over thirty cars shall have crew OF
six men, and for less than thirty cars,
five men shall be provided The equip
ment for passenger trains is also speci-
fed, and regulations for the comfort
and safety of employees upon trains
composed exclusively of mail and ex-
press cars is. also contained in the law.
The recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court, upholding the
Federal statute limiting the hours
which trainmen shall be compelled to
work, viewed with this Pennsylvania
legislation, shows that the claims OF
railroad employees for more humane
treatment are receiving consideration.
The fact that no less than FIVE railroad
presidents appeared personally, but
yainly, to combat the action of the legis-
lature indicates that the influence of
the corporations is not as potent as
was formerly the case.
The public is entitled to the largest
degree of care in the matter of railroad
transportation If the railroads them
selves will not undertake to equip their
trains properly, 1t is the legitimate
and bounden duty Of the legislature to
compel them to do SO. In State like
Pennsylvania, where the railroads form
a perfect network, the legislation just
enacted Is of the utmost Importance and
value.
