Waste in Coke Making

From the Boston Transcript
 If the 27,703.G44 short tons of coke manufactured in 1911 in ovens of the beehive type had been made in by product ovens the value of the by products thus recovered, which were wasted in the beehive ovens, would have been between 35.000, 900 and $s0.- 900 600. This interesting statement is made by Edward w. Parker of the United States Geological survey, in the advance chapter on coke from the vol une Mineral Resources" for 1911. This estimate IS based on the value of the by-products resulting from the 7,Ss7.- S45 tons of coke made in by-product ovens in 1911. The value of these by products recovered in 1911 was equal to the value at the mines of the coal used in making the coke.
 From information received by the survey from the superintendent of mo- tive power of the Pennsylvania Rail road company, MT. Parker estimates that the quantity of power which might be obtained from the coking operations in the ConDellsville and lower Connellsville districts by substi- tuting non-recovery retort ovens for beehive ovens and using the heat which is now wasted would be more than twice the quantity of power necessary to move every train on the Pennsyl- vania railroad between Pittsburg and Harrisburg. The amount of boiler horsepower obtainable from these cok- ing districts Is estimated by MT. Par lSer at about 100000 horsepower per hour for every hour fin the year.

Episcopal Mission Incnme

A week ago the American board closed it's books for the year $26000 ahead of the previous year, and now the Episcopal board closes it's books s75,0o0 ahead. For the first time in its history the last named board exceeded income from all sources of s1,500,000. and for two consecu- tive years the American board exceeded $l GOO in annual income. With the dis ciples of Christ mission societies, soon to close their books, these are the great mission agencies ending fiscal years this fall. Their success seems to indicate prosperity.
 The Episcopal board, recently reorgan- ized and It's working staff much increased had in 1911 an income from all sources Of Sf, ,435, GOO. This year it attains $l5l0,0O0. In the past decade this boards gain has been nearly s500,c00, while the number of churches to contribute at all has been tre- mendously advanced. Within ten years the totals have increased three fold, while the number of churches contributed has doubled. The figures here given relate to work that, in some measure at least the Episcopal board is responsible. There passes through the boards hands, how ever, much of it without paying toll in any form for expense of handling, many other sums of missionary money. The total so handled this past year exceeds for the first time in the boards history $2, ,0G0 eco.

others. Now Catholics announce their in- tention of making stronger their mission to them The question of language has been under consideration, and the text of the New Testament i. preparing for them.
 Esquimos and Laplanders havo long been the subjects of missionary activity, and the same zeal will now extend 10 these lost tribes, if such they prove to be. The Russian Catholic church, the German and Swedish Lutherans, the Church of England, and the CongreSa- tonalists and Presbyterians of the United States have led in work among them. At the suggestion and with the co-opera- ton of a Presbyterian missionary the Rev. Dr. Sheldon Jackson our govern ment brought reindeer from Lapland to Alaska, and the Christian missionaries taught the Esquimos the manner of car ing for and using them. Later, under missionary guidance, the Alaskan Esqui- mos have beaten the Laplanders ten to one in making the reindeer pay, and have secured a natural increase in num- bers such as the Laps never dreamed of
 Along with missionaries, Bible transla- tions and public schools, Christian mis- sonaries are now to take to the new Esquimo tribes some reindeer and teach them how to raise and use them at a profit. The Presbyterian Board of Home Missions, the American Missionary asso- citation and the Church of England in Canada are leading among Protestnnts
 in behalf of these new peoples.

How the Ania amls See

From the New York Evening Port
 Do the animals see the world as we do? This is a question philosophers have pug zled over much and usually answered in the negative. The answer really turns on what is meant by seeing" The physics and chemistry of the light pcrceiving ap- paratus of man and the higher animals differ only in minor details, and even in the case of the lower seeing animals the eyes are affected by the same rays as those acting upon our eyes. Unless, there fore. we mean by seeing or perceiving. apperception-that is. translation of the seeing into ideas and thoughts-there is some excuse for saying that animals do see the world as we do. This was the conclusion arrived at by a German sci enlist, who addressed the recent Inter- national Chronological Congress in Lon- don. He believes that event the insect has very much the sarce sort of a picture Of external things as men, because It's eyes are susceptible to the same rays as the human eye"
 Obviously, however. this Is an extreme ly narrow and technical point of view Seeing in the ordinary sense Is more than the mere focusing of images on the retina: it is, in fact, apperceiang. and our ideas of the external world are the products of processes far more complex and wonderful than the mere passage Of light into the eye. Seeing in this sense is so much an individual thing. that each man has a world of his own. perhaps quite different from that of his next door neighbor And this despite the fac that the two pairs of eyes couldns he told apart" If the ldealists belief that the only realities are our apperceptions IS true, the animal world must be a very crude and primitive affair Despite the opinion of pr. Adebert Seitz, therefore the conclusion Is justined-it is at least. for ordinary speculative rurDoses-that Insects do not see the world at all as We dp

Bible for Spaniards

The American Bible society and the British and Foreign Bible society, after long negotiations. have agreed upon re- vision of the Bible for the sixty millions of people in Spain, the Philippines, the West Indies and South America who speak the Spanish language The growth Of non-Catholic churches in all of these lands except Spain itself has rendered the need for Bible revision imperative. The Bible at present in use was made POO years or more ago. although of late years some revisionary work has been done and published
 The revisers will take three or four years to their task. and will spend most of that time in a small town in Spain, quite near to Cadiz. While expert Span ish scholars themselves, they will call They will. however, avoid making a strictly Spanish text. in that the Spanish Of the world will be recognized.
 Representing the American Bible society will be the Rev. pr. Henry c. Thompson. Presbyterian serving. until recently in Porto Rico: the Rev. pr. Charlex w. Drees. @ Methodist pioneer in South Amer- ica and Porto Rico; and the Rev. Vic tor Baez, native Mexican. Some years ago. in New York, a revision of the four Gospels was made. and the American revisers are taking that revision with them to Spain. The new work will, how ever be based upon the Greek. It is confidently believed that this revision, far more thorough than any ever made, will be satisfactory to the Spanish peo- ple.

Missian Conventions

The I.aymen's Missionary movement. very active two years ago but holding off to some extent last year because of the Men and Religion movement, an- nounees for 1gi2-i913 a series of more than 40 conventions to further the cause of for eign missions and their support of men and money from the United states and Canada The leader remains the same as that of two years ago, viz: J. Campbell White, Esq. Among the big events scheduled is the Canada anniversary, 70 be held in Toronto November 9-lo.
 Five principal events following the Cam ada anniversary are a campaign in Min neapolis and St. Paul at the middle of November; Detroit one covering the same dates; a simultaneous canvass in Indianapolis during the first few days of February a Richmond anniversary Feb ruary 10 to F, and dinner in Chicago on March H. At the last named men arc to be present from the middle west, and g. conference on results thus far obtained is to be held. It is possible that a cam paign will be carried on in St. Louis later in March.
 Apart from these chief events the con- yentions planned are to come off in towns of smaller size. the aim being to cover territory that was not touched by preyi- ous campaigns. either Laymer's Mission ary or Men and Religion. A campaign is to be held at Morristown, Pa. in October, another at Waterloo. Iowa, and stiil an- other at Ashland. O., during the same month Smaller towns to be toIiched dur ing the rest of the year Include those of Ohio. Indiana, and southwest to Texas. with few in North Carolina and Geor- gia.

Evade the Garb Law

President Taft, backing dp Secretary of the Interior Fisher, fails to please Prot estants with his garb decision as applying to teachers in government Indian schools. and Protestant leaders say he fails also to please the Catholics. Commissioner Valentine of the Indian bureau ordered that from the opening of Indian schools this fall, teachers wear no dress indi- eating religious association. President Taft annulled the order forthwith. There are 51 nuns in schools formerly Cath ollie, but now government supported schools. These schools are scattered well over territory occupied by Indians. After delaying many months which de- lay provoked criticism from all parties,
 President Taft concurs in Secretary Fish CTS decision that present teachers may continue to wear their garbs, but that new teachers hereafter to come in must
 wear dress indicative of no religious be- lief or membership in no religious order.
 The decision prevents Catholics recruiting
 their teaching force from habited orders,
 but allows present teachers to fill their
 places undisturbed.
 Chairman Thompson of the Home Mis-
 sions Council, representing all Protestant
 mission boards in America, declared that
 the President evades the issue, is incon-
 sistent, and satisfies nobody with his de-
 cision. He asks why the President and
 Secretsiy or the interior Ignore lhe charge that civil service laws have been
 broken by admitting nuns as teachers without examination. Other Protestants
 intimate that President Taft has made another decision. only after long delay, that strikes out nowhere, and pleases neither side to the issue. There is talk of politics in 1t all, and the effect the decision will have on election day. Some years ago the government votel money to Protestant and Catholic 9ndian schools. Next the government withdrew these grants and finally took the schools over altogether.

Organizations have charge dur ing the respective days. Interlarded be- tween these conventions are others of smaller moment. This year one important convention will come in. It is the coun- ell on Christian union.
 For some years committee on unifica- ton has been at work and will report at Louisville in favor, so it is under stood, of the convention, somewhat on the lines of the Baptists, who until re- gently had conventions In succession. but have now one. It is stated that the re- port of the committee will provoke spir-

Bishop Vim cent was a member of the American Epis- copal committee that recently visited England in the interests of Anglican unity.
