MI. Farnsworth expressed the opinion
that men OF such type, SO deeply in

This is an opportunity for the direc-

devoting so much time.
Mr.. Freeland comes from a.week's

STAFF OFFICER

War Department Not TO Affect
Military Rank in Virginia
Volunteers.

Uncasiness which has beeiI displayed
by some OF the staff officers OF the
Virginia Volunteers because OF n re-
port that their ranks would be stnnc-
ardixed TO conform to United States
Army regulations has disappeared
with an announcement by Adjutant-
General W. W. Sale that there will be
no changes in commissions.
Copies OF an order recently Issued
hy the War Department setting forth
the rank held by officers who were
chief OF the various departments such
as p~aylnasters. surgeons, eommlssaries,
ouartermastcrs. chaplains, ordnance
to the adjutants heading the organized
| militia Of the various States. a re-
commentator suggesting that pnilitia
officers he given the Same n &C.
companicd the order. If the plan
should be adopted It would bring
many changes in the commissions OF
the Virginia officers.
Discussing the matter last night,
General Sale said; II will make no
changes in tho rank Of the stan OIL
GERS. I do not expect to recall a single
commission for promotion or reduc-
ton"
1t Is understood. however, that fu-
turc appointments to tho staff Will
conform to the plan suggested by the
War Department, and that by this
method the commissions or the chiefs
OF departments will eventually CORE
spond with those held In the regular
army.
The order had no bearing upon field
and line officers. But tho report whi>h
was current caused considerable un-
easiness amoug tho shoulder-strapped
soldiers assigned to the general star.
Had 1t been decided to accept The idea
of tho War nepIaTneIt there would
have been enough promotions and re-
ductions In rank to cause confusion.

largest protestant Sabbath schools
in the country. the average attend
ance being more than five hundred

school that deserves mention is that

the attendance runs far into the
hundreds. There are 81 churches

this number constantly. The latest
is the Laurel Heights Methodist con-

save a dollar on subscription each

she will send the first American

manned ship of the rehabilitated
American Merchant Marine through
the Panama canal and will demand
that right of the United States con-
gress. This was the substance of
ringing resolution adopted by the
New Orleans Progressive Union, the
big commercial organization of the
city, the moment the news was
flashed from Washington that New
Orleans had lost and San Francisco
had won 1t radiated optimism and
is an example Of the buoyant cour-
age of people who know how to

and aggressive determination to let
nothing quench the ardor of theh
enthusiasm or the faith in their des-
tiny as the Gulf gateway which, on'y
1900 miles distant will dominate
the Panama canal, even though the
exposition is held in city 5000
miles away from the great channel
dug by Uncle Sam.
Louisiana mas taken step far in
in fostering the American Merchant
Marine, by her people voting con-

leading citizen of New Orleans is in
Brazil as the special emissary of the

as the Mississippi Valley, South Am

Many People Praising Root Juice.

When the Root Juice Demonstra

names of many people who were

derful medicine has been here but
short while, but many home people
who have been using it are praising
it very highly We have published in
this paper the names of many who
have been cured by it, and it seems
that it would pay every afflicted per
son to investigate as no medicine
was ever introduced to this com
munity that created so much favor

in such short while. Many that suf-
fered with chronic stomach, liver,
kidney and rheumatic troubles are
blessing the day that brought Root

of people that have purchased the
remedy, not single complaint has
