Baptist Board Deficit Feared

Baptist societies have agreed that contributions intended for them, and to be included in this years accounts, may be mailed up to April ?, the last day of the current month falling on Sunday The secretary of the general apporton- ment committee, in sending out this mo- tice to Baptist churches of the coun- try, tells them that receipts during these final days of the year must be far larger than in former years else heavy deficits, greater than last year, will re- suit
 It Is stated that the American Baptist Foreign Mission society, with headquar- ters in Boston, must ,eceive $1S7.000 more than during March of last year, and the Home Mission society, with offices in New York, $71,000 more, if deficits larger than last year are to be avoided The secretary states that IT dificits occur they are to be taken by the societies that Baptist churches de- sire, or are willing to consent to, re- treats and retrenchments in work. While expectations from laymen' S movements are declared to be justified, it Is admitted that larger aportionments have been made. The trouble seems to be, the Baptists say, that expectations are not realized as rapidly as some had expected.
 The Baptist Foreign society, at the quarterly meeting or JUS managers Just held in Chicago, elected the Rev. Dr. James H. Franklin of Colorado Spring to be foreign secretary 10 succeed the Rev pr. Thomas s. Barbour, who re- tires on account of his health, and has been elected honorary secretary. The new secretary, who is expected to enter upon his work in Boston in May, Is a Virginian, and educated at the Southern college at Richmond, but has spent practically all of his ministry in churches in the north. rife is under 40 years of age. The Foreign society has now constituted three departments in its work. one to cultivate the home field, the source of men and money sup ply; one to conduct the work in foreign lands, and one to care for money mat ters. e-'

 A few years ago a canon 19, becoming famous because giving certain rights of ;nterchange of pulpits on special occa- sions, created great stir among the same high clement The stir subsided as suddenly as it came up, and nothing
 whatever was done to change the law.

 Presbylterian ministers to occupy their pulpits
 The most conspicuous instance, one said to have the approval of the nsw bishop of Pennsylvania, the Rt. Rev.

 AMONG SMUGGLERS

Geneva, March 23.-(SpeclalD-An anus ing incident on the Swiss-Italian frontier shows that there is no honor among smugglers.
 Eight young smugglers of Varese, car rying sacks filled with tobacco and sac charine, boldly cut through the wire fence on the frontier during an exchange of guards and passed over their valuable booty. They were placing the sacks fin a convenient cave, when suddenly eight men dressed in the uniform of Italian customs officers arrived on the scene and commanded the smugglers to surrender themselves.
 The men fled Into the woods. but think ing it strange that they were not fired upon remained In ambush, and were greatly surprised to see the douaniers throw off their official uniforms and, each carrying a sack, disappear in the opposite direction with the booty. The second band of smugglers wanted to take no risks
