WOMEN PAY TRIBUTE
TO CONFEDERATE DEAD
William Jennings Bryan, Ora
tor of Day at Cornerstone
Laying at Arlington
fpr Assoelatea Preas. }

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.--Laying of
the corner stone Of a great monument
in Arlington national cemetery to be
dedicated to the dead Of the Confed-
eracy was the principal event today in
the opening program of the annual con-
vention of the United Daughters
OF the Confederacy. Thousands Of wom-
en- assembled to pay tribute to the
memory of the men who fought for the
south, surrounded by the site of the
monument to, witness the ceremony con-
Quoted by Colonel Hilary A. Herbert,
former secretary of the navy.
William Jennings Bryan was the ora
tor of the day.
The monument is to occupy a plot in
the center of the Confederate section
of the national cemetery, where are
buried $50 of the men who died in the
southern cause.
= The addresses of Mr.. Bryan and Mrs.
Herbert emphasized the unity of sen,
timent between north and south, which
has largely obliterated sectional feeling
and made possible the erection of final
memorial to the southern dead in the
midst Of scores of monuments to north
ern soldiers.
After the laying of the cornerstone,
work on the Confederate shaft is to be
pushed without delay and officers Of
the Daughters Of the Confederacy hope
to unveil the monument before the re-
union Of Union and Confederate veter-
ans at Gettysburg battlefield next July.
Sir Moses Ezekiel, the sculptor, has
practically completed the design, in
which a woman, IMPLYING the south,
extends laurel wreath over the graves
of the dead, while her left hand rests
upon a pillow.

THE GREAT CONCENTRATION.
So delicious was this confession to
Jesus that He commended Peter in the
highest terms. When He first met him,
He said thou are Simon. thou shalt
be Peter" Now He said, Thou art
Peter" 1t was this faith in Him as the
Son Of the living God which changed
Peter from the vascillating sand to the
stable rock. 1t was upon this 'rock-this
great confession which Peter made
that Christ has built His church and
is building it. Peter was the first of
the living stones in the building Of
which Christ was the cornerstone. These
stones were made fit for the building by
the confession similar to- that which
Peter made other stones may be larger
and more highly polished, but Peter
has the distinction which cannot be
taken away from him, Of being the
first -
In commencing Peter He gave him a
great promise for His ehurch-that the
gates of hell would not prevail against
it. Now we have ordinarily taken this
to mean just the opposite of what
il says-that the hosts OF he'll cannot
destroy the church. What 1t says is that
the church shall always have the vic
tory over the gates of hell. You never
heard of gates taking the offensive; it

THE CROSS
From that time forth. Matthew says
now that Jesus had secured from His
disciples this confession. and realized
that they were prepared to receive, a
larger truth in the way in which He
was to come into His full Messiahship.
and all that 1t meant fro mthat time
forth-Jesus began to show His disci-
Piles that He must go to Jerusalem and
suffer many things and be crucified. In
spite of His great confession this was
a shock which Peter could not bear. He
appreciated that Jesus was the Mes
siah and that his conception of the
Messiah was different from what 1t had
been at first, but he was not prepared
to accept this phase of it. So he took
Jesus aside and began to demonstrated
with Him, saying, spare myself Lord

Fighting Mites ON Poultry

Kerosene emulsion, one of the
best mixtures to use in combating
mites in the poultry house, is made
by mixing two gallons of kerosene
oil, one-half pound of whale oil
soap, one quart of homemade soft
soft and one gallon water. Dis
solve the soap by boiling in water,
then remove from the fire and
add the kerosene at once. Churn
this mixture rapidly and violently
until It IS as smooth as beaten
cream. One part of emulsion to
several parts of water is used to
dilute the mixture for application
to buildings, dropping boards or
nest boxes. Add one or two ounces
of carbolic to the emulsion just be-
fore applying. This is a splendid
disinfectant and insecticide to use
around the poultry house.

Austria and Russia can never be

nople is the head of the Eastern church
and Russia considers the Tsar the Lit
tie Father" Austria is the strongest
political power of the Roman Catho-
lies and the Slavs resent Austria's an
nexation of any possession dominated by
the Eastern church.
But who is fighting Turkey and
what forg' l heard asked only yes
terday. Bulgaria, Servia, Greece and
Montenegro are the countries and the
reason for the war or the reason given
for attempting to wiring this Turkey
neck is the failure of the Turkish gov
eminent to carry out certain reforms

Just a word about the awful condi-
tion o. affairs in the police circles of
New York. Vice and graft Of every
sort has been allowed to grow and
grow until a mans life was of no more
value than an insects Two hundred
dollars was the price assessed by the
union that got the undesirables off the
earth. We have been in the habit of
thinking of thugs and cut threats as
skulking, unkempt and repulsive look

the public as the four who were en-
ployed by the police lieutenant to get
his enemy silenced forever were MEM
bers of the Turkish Bath club, wore
silken underwear and manicured their
nails. They are the twentieth century
product Of the botbeds of vice and it
takes the danger and excitement of a
murder to thrill them.
I believe they have arrived at their
Waterloo and that the summary way they
have been dealt with will in a meas
ure disrupt them. Pessimists viii have
much to say about the world growing
worse. but it is not that, there are
more people and they make greater
noise of course. I have recently been
noting the altruistic movements that
in the last ten years have been a sue
cess and they are too numerous to
mention here.
Remember "the twentieth century is
going to find the man who is going to

But that means freedom to fall, soci-
ally or otherwise. People cannot be
tied up in punches and put on
