thusiasm or excitement in America,

though restrained satisfaction. II Is
doubtless desirable that treaty rela-

while the total value of our commerce
with that country is relatively msig-

even that small commerce and that linz

What Is most agreeable in the pres

is Russia that is about to make the
overtures. 1t had been assumed by
some that such would not be the case,
but that since America denounced the
old treaty It would be left for this
country to move for the making Of 4
new one. But Russia doubtless realizes
that relations between the two coun.
tries are far more important TO her
than to us. That Is obviously so In the
matter OF commerce. We have, il Is
true. been selling little more 10 Russia
than Russia has sold to us. But our

| To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The project that has burdened my
mind and heart through the last two
years has been the securing in this coun-
try OF a suitable and adequate property
for a central training college for In
creasing our facilities for the training OF
officers in the ranks Of the Salvation
Army in it's many and varied branches
II is now pressed upon me that no more
fitting memorial I'm the United States
could be lifted TO the life Of the Salvation

II was among the strongest and great
est ambitions Of the latter years Of my
fathers life that a more complete train
ing college should be established In New
York where men and women desiring TO
devote their lives TO the interests Of suf-
fering humanity in all It's phases could be
more efficiently educated to fill the differ
ent positions of our field.
The students for this institution would
come from all classes OF society and
would be instructed. as well as by lecture
and class, by the worlds best teacher.

daily contact with the sorrows and sins OF
the unfortunate and by daily practice OF
the army's methods and teaching In re-

tary drilling going on in the north of
Ireland reminds one of a story of how
Ireland was occasionally taught to
shoot in the past. The war once once
sent famous officer over to inspect
the militia regiments, and the officer,
after inspecting, asked for few
words with the drill sergeant.
These men of yours" he said,
could not hit target as big as the
Tower of London. You can't have
taken much pains to teach them"
"Tache thin to shoot" gasped the
sergeant. "Of course l did not tache

Returning to Washington one night
from New York, he got past the taxi
cabs and was surrounded by group
of cabmen to whom he paid abso-
lutely no attention. as he intended to
walk the fourteen blocks to his office.
The hackmen greeted him with a
storm OF such cries as:
Take you right uptown! Take you
to the New Willard! Take you to the
Raleigh"
The statesman walked right ahead
without even looking at the besiegers.
"If you want a cheap hotel jump
right in here" insisted another driver.
Still Nagel walked on, unheeding.
Finally Jehu addressed him thus:
Deaf and dumb asylum! Take you
up there in minute"
At this Nagel laughed and got into
the hack.
