old custom which insists that woman

About year ago Viennese feminists
deplored the fact that an unmarried

as Nine. Rosenwerth). with the object of
bringing the title Madame into general
use for women Of all ranks, married and
unmarried. The league exacts a pledge
from its members to style themselves

The adoption of the word into English

ST. PETERSBURG, March %. 1913.
{ An ArchangeI correspondent sends a
moving description of the sufferings of
the Moldavian peasants, who in mid-win-
ter followed the fanatical monk, Innocen-
thus over 1000 miles from the Podolia
government to the Muromsky monastery,
on the Omega river, where he was ban

death threatened them all on the snowy
wastes when the Archangei authorities
sent force of rural guards to stop their

gently asking for medical aid. Some of
the pilgrims had money in comparative
plenty. for before starting northward
they had sold their belongings, but 1t
was of no avail to them In the frozen
wilderness.
The correspondent questioned the pill
grims as to the hold which Innocentius
had over them. Incredible as 1t may
sound in the twentieth century, In a civil
ICED country, the following is the gist Of
the replies he received: The followers
of Innocentius knew that Jesus Christ
had appeared in the Omega region, and
but was taken elsewhere for crucifxion.
Alpha and OMEGA In the revelation of
st. John designated our Lord and In

the confusion of the peasants between
Omega and Onega.) Otherwise. why was
there housing room for LOCO persons in
the Muromsky monastery when the
monks only numbered 100? This was the
work of the Lord. They had been shown a
picture of Innocentius portrayed as Jesus
Christ with nimbus vncircling his head
and cross and chal,ce IN his hands.

of the Deputy VI. Khvostoff has now

Secretary Houston's Statement.

Secretary Houston Of the Agricultural

dent before the removal of Mr.. Moore
was announced. The Secretary then is
sued the following statement:
Immediately after the resignation of
Prof. Moore of the weather bureau was
submitted to the President and accepted
by him, charges were filed with the Sec
rotary of Agriculture by responsible men
within the service. These charges were
OF such a grave nature that the Secretary
Of Agriculture called upon the Depart
ment OF Justice for an investigation.
THE investigation is still under way,
but the facts SO far secured and laid be-
fore the President were sufficient to war
rant him in deciding to withdraw his &C
ceptance Of Prof. Moores resignation and
remove him summarily.
The President has also directed the
Secretary Of Agriculture to suspend Mr..
Charles T. Burns, an employe Of the
weather bureau, pending a further In
vestigation of his case, and take such
disciplinary measures as he may deem
necessary with such other employees OF
the weather bureau as may be found to
have been unduly active in using the
public service for private and personal
