MAY WEAR RELIGIOUS GARB.
Presidents Decision Not Hold to Bar
Attire Of Church Orders In Schools.

President Taft's decision concerning
the employment of the Catholic reli
gious garb in the government of In
dian schools is not expected to prohib-
1t the wearing of such garb by nuns
and other teachers who have been al
lowed to wear a distinctive religious
attire in the past
The Indian Rights association, which
has been opposing the wearing of the
religious garb in the Indian schools
and indorsing the position taken by
Commissioner Of Indian Affairs Valen-
tine, has Circularized its members with
a statement In which it comedies that
the presidents decision will go against
them TO this extent. But the associa-
fuse to allow new teachers to wear the
garb
Under date OF Sept. 4, 1912, the In
dian Rights association, through 8. NJ.
BrOsius, its Washington agent issued
n progress report" to its members,
which makes this prediction respect
ing the action OF the administration on
the religious garb question:
Secretary Fisher has handed to the
president his decision in the celebrat-
ed garb order OF Commissioner Valen-
tine. No intimation is given as to the
nature Of the decision. Just when the
president will make final decision is
not known. Politics being chiefly con-
sidered, it will not be surprising If the
announcement is delayed until after the
fall elections, although l look for
comprehensive decision. mean to In
fer that it may be held that those nuns
already admitted without civil service
examinations shall remain, but that no
further violations Of the rule will be
permitted and the peculiar garb of the
orders shall be permitted in other
cases"

SILENCER FOR BABY CRIES.

on Mrs. Esther Prouty of Fort Wayne,
Ind, and her baby muller.
Mrs. Prouty entered the Hotel Balti-
more lobby, Kansas City, recently and
placed her two-year-old baby on a set
tee while she registered. The baby
squirmed and kicked and made faces,
but there was no noise
Poor thing" some one said. "It Is
deaf and dumb"
The mother smiled and said: mo,
he is crying his best, but he is wearing
his shock and noise absorber. If
would remove it he would fill the lob
by with more noise than you ever
heard"
crowd gathered, and Mrs Prouty
assumed the role OF lecturer, with IL
lustradons
A thin rubber hood fitted over the
baby's chin and mouth. OF the same
color OF the baby's skin, 1t could not
be seen at a distance Around the
mouth was pocket, in which was a
filmy cloth resembling mosquito bar,
OF silk. Mrs. Prouty changes this pad
ding every day, and the baby wears 1t
only when in public. The child can
breathe through it, and it is removed
when the baby wants a drink. The
absorber is fastened in the back under
the baby's hood, and cry as much as 1t
wishes, the noise sounds no louder
than a dull buzz.
Mrs. Prouty will not patent her de-
vice. She wants every mother to have
the advantage Of it.

a policy Of greater secrecy adopted
recently by the navy department in
relation to what takes place in navy
yards, on board battleships, in expert
ments with guns, powder, explosives
and submarines has been observed so
vigorously that few know that tests of
two large horoscopes Of American in
vention have been going on aboard the
topedo boat destroyer Worden for sew
eral months.
The Worden, commanded by Ensign
w. r. Monroe, has been running lu
and ont of the New York navy yard
two and three times week for the
last four months, equipped with tbt
horoscopes, in an effort to discover y
the problem of preventing such craet
from rolling can he solved.
Belief that this type of gyroscope.
called the active. is successful and
to steal the secret have kept every Off
Ger and man in the torpedo boat on
the alert day and night
Constantly Guarded.
A bluejacket is on guard within q
few feet Of the horoscopes constantly.
No one is permitted to go near them,
although they are under cover until
the ship is at sea.
The horoscopes are placed in the
main deck forward, one on the port
side and the other on the starboard.
From the size OF the covering they
seem to be about three or four feet in
diameter. c. r. Miller, lieutenant
commander; Guard Knox, naval con-
structor, and Lieutenant ]. A. Monroe
have charge of the tests, and they are
on board the torpedo boat whenever
she goes out beyond Sandy Hook.
None Of those officers can be induced
to say word about the horoscopes.
The type is said to be the invention
Of navy officer, and is superior to
the passive type Of horoscopes used
with great success by the Germans.
Tests have been going on for a year.
it is said, in the laboratories in the
navy yard
A torpedo boat destroyer like the
Worden has an angle of stability of
ninety degrees. She has rolled as
much rs fifty degrees. In the great
storm last Christmas, in which a fleet
of torpedo boats and destroyers were
tossed about and damaged badly on
the way to Cuba, several having to
put in to Bermuda, one Of the boats is
said to have rolled 40 degrees She
dipped water with her smokestacks.
Rolling Causes Suffering.
In bad weather life aboard a torpedo
boat almost is unbearable The crew
suffers much, and men in the engine
room are knocked about and hurt.
Walking across the deck is done with
great risk of life.
Such secrecy now is being observed
in the navy that orders even have hcn"
issued that no officer can discuss sui
marine tactics. The navy department
considers the evolutions of subma-
rine Of such vital Importance that no
navy officers, it is said, save those

-HE June Bug deserves an essay
all by himself because of his

cratic, noisy and bothersome.
If he could be trained to give a col
Ieee yell he would pass in the dark for

Scientifically. the June Bug is a large
brown insect with a solid ivory head and
six legs equipped with hooks on the
sbins. which enable him to hang on like
an office holder when he drops into the
back hair of the woman next door who
Is prominent in society, and Is calling
for the first time.
This Is a favTite deed of the J. Bugs.
He is not as handsome nor nearly as
talented as some other bugs, but he
moves in the best society and gets into
some homes where many a senator would
feel bashful.
The June Bug travels ike an aerOplane,
producing a loud humming noise and
banking and planning with great skill
He also lands like an aviator, by run
ming into something and coming down
with a crash. He was born with pur-
pose and spends his life trying to achieve
it. This purpose is to destroy a house
by buttng it from within. Night after
night the June Bug pursues this purpose
with the utmost earnestness, ramming
mirrors, assaulting ceilings, putting dents
in lamp ehimneys and battering book

each attack until his head has stopped
whirling, and he can pry himself off his
back. \ June Bug may come humping
