The dust of John Paul Jones has been finally laid away in the crypt which an admiring nation has prepared delay of hundred and ten years for all that left of all that mortal of it's first admiral, the who the struggling young nation supremacy the
 John Paul Jones born American and he did not die one. He could not have fore seen or expected this posthumous honor. Having served in the American navy, he attached himself next to that France that of Russia
 There is serious doubt whether the remains which the American nation honored Sunday are those of the great admiral John Paul Jones died Paris in 1792, amid the turmoil immediately preceding the horrors of the French revolution Though picturesque figure, the stray de- scriptons of him that time, he obscure in those days as were most men who not tive in the revolutionary movement.
 He died and for many years he was forgotten by all except of the story of the Ameri- can revolution. Whatever light thrown upon him reflected from that memorable sea fight between the Bonhomme Richard and the Seraps. Of the commander of the former and his crew little was known beyond the that they marvellous victory That single event gave John Paul Jones a permanent place in American history.
 The movement by this government to recover the body of first admiral and give it burial on American soil we hardly say, in his adopted country but the which foreigner he had served well begun comparatively recently.
 By the most diligent inquiry it learned where the body John Paul Jones had probably been buried in Paris A lead coffin found but there a lack of evidence which has never been supplied it contained the remains of the illus tIlous fighter.
 But it decided to assume that the coffin his and years ago, with great ceremony the part of great nations it trans ported this country and placed in temporary resting place pending preparation of the crypt.

Not in hundred whether it takes place not It is matter which really concerns nobody but the president elect and those who would enjoy in person such oppor- tunity display the ball would afford.
 Probably is that the president elect looks upon a frivolous function which is distasteful him and which, have said. concerns such an infintesmal part of the people of the country.

Advance in Ocean Freight Rates
Engineering and Mining JournaD

(EfglneeflnS and Mining JOurnaD
 A notable feature of the year just closed has been the strong advance in freight rates winch has in many cases seriously affected the metal and mineral trades This advance has been almost continuous throughout the year; the cur rent level of charters is from 35 45 per cent higher than it in 1911 heavy freights The great activity in business trade in almost all the commercial nations has contributed the advance and has made demand for tonnage that is quite unprecedented in commercial history Tn 1911 thls demand was heavy and rates advanced after a period of depression which lasted for several years; but 1912 has been probably the year record for shipowners.
 The minerals furnishing the greatest tonnage for ocean transportation are coal and iron ore The coal exports of the more important nations are from Great Britain, about 7O,OOOOOO tons from Germany, 27,5OOO0O; from the United States, IT, 5o0,000, and from Japan and Australia together 6,OOO,OO0 tons These exports necessary and will not be stopped by high freghts the only being to advance prices in the purchasing countries Iron requires about 150OOO0O yearly and this trade has been seriously affected by high rates Thus, for instance furnaces in the eastern United States, which have been using large quan- titles of Swedish and Spanish ores, are finding present rates almost prohibitive.
 In the of the metals, where freight rates bear a much smaller proportion to the value than with coal and iron the effect has been quite perceptibe, though it has been some extent lost sight of in the general advance of prices A special case of bulky mineral is found in the nitrates exported from the coast of South America Here the effect the prices realized by producers mas been considerable, since the trade would probably have been checked had the higher freight rates been thrown entirely the con- Sumers
 In the present condition of trade there is no prospect of an early decrease in freights. Shpbuilding will doubtless continue on a large scale. The general expectation is that the opening of the Panama canal will increase the demand for tonnage although this may be offset extent by the shortening of vOyages-to the coast of America, for misunderstanding to carry larger tonnage in a year. The high freight rates and the demand tonnage are any rate. established facts, the effects of which will run through 1913.

The Corsetless Girl
Philadelphia Press)

Philadelphia Press)
 The corset has been less under the ban for many generations. Sermons have been thun- dered against it from the pulpit. Doctors have denounced it only unhygienc and injurious to the wearert but peril to the race. Dress re- formers" have endeavOred persuade their sisters to give up the contrvance and return nature; but all in vain The has persisted Much thought has been given perfecting lines. For tunes have been made by designers and lecturers of styles that approval of the fair corset Wearers
 The grandmothers drowned on the corset but now they have frown because the sweet girl graduates into society the debutantes of Washington, have discarded their stays. The cry is now not back to nature" but back corset" The grandmothers when they inveighed so earnestly against this mysterious garment, never suspected the advent of the turkey trot and the bunny hug and the various dips" and glides" that have made the waltz and two-step seem almost as tame to the younger the quadriIle and the minuet seemed to the debutantes of five years ago
 And there's the rub
 One fair young creature in Washington discov- cred that by discarding the corset she became without the slightest effort the belle ball The Hateful secret soon became known to others The large numbers every dance. Her elder sister her cousins her aunts. her mother and grand mothers are all implorng her to resume the corset There is no question of hygiene fears of per sOnal discomfort or injury fears for the future of the The elder matrons maintain that the bunny hug and the turkey trot and the dips" and "glides' make the corset imperative the ballroom
 While the society leaders in Philadelphia and other cities trying by every influence at their command to eliminate these very modern and very popular dances, it would seem as if dscarding the corset would strengthen their hands. then. all this remain a mystery to mere man. and the solution of a very perplexing problem may well be left to the ladies themselves.

The Writers Union

The latest union is that of the newspaper writers One has been formed in New York af- filiated with the typographical union. It's very birth has produced strike the publishers very turaly having refused comply with the de- mands
 Several times such an organization of news paper writers has been proposed but before they had proceeded formation the insuperabe obstacles which ought to have been from dis tance encountered.
 There could be uniform scale wages The services of the members the union could be standardized work in the trades may be. Some of the members of the union, at the rates they paid would be worth say s15 week: others would be worth ten times much. Minimum and maximum scales would be productive of dissent within the union.
 The question qualification for membership involves problem. but the New York union has sought solve it by fixing the qualification the ability ito write three columns of brevier five hours That is certainly not unreasonable stint as the volume is concerned, volume is the thing to be considered. The matter might not be worth printing all and would be no publisher
 We believe that it would be easy unionize the preachers, the lawyers and doctors as it would be to unonize the newspaper writers. One serious objection than any other and one which has been overlooked in discussions of this that esprit de corps which is so essential in the writing rooms of newspapers. We hardly believe that it could be maintained.

The New Civic Spirit

The movement toward Phoenix has the steadness of clock work. From the time the spe- cial committee make the selection the committee of One Hundred, the gone on without hitch delay or the slightest friction.
 A great degree of interest has been taken in every step. For least the citizens Phoe- nix have shown themselves be in full accord; to be of the belief that the greatest progress can be made by all working together The first meeting of the Committee of One Hundred brought out larger attendance than had been expected. Again last night there another manifestation of this civic spirit which increased by the presence of the ladies who had added to hte committee. They had already qualified for mem bership by the great interest they had been taking in municipal affairs through their clubs years
 The systematic division of the work among the members of the committee now, of One Hundred and Twenty-Five gives assurance of greater and earlier accomplishment.
 Never before there great a promise that much would be done. The present situation must be attributed in large measure to the eIimna- uon of party politics. Now,that have a delight ful illustration of the advantage leaving out par tisanship do think any one will ever care to re-introduce it.

Civil and common law, closely joined time in Europe. have often been quite confused in ancient Palestine. At the dinner where Jesus denounced the Pharisees because they tthed mint and cum1hin, and forgot judgment and the love of God, lawyer present declared amazed that this attack the Pharisees touched his, the legal profession. Jesus accepted the chal- lenge in stnging words that of the laity of today would like to carved buildings where lawyers congregate: Woe unto you lawyers also, For ye Jade men with burdens grievous to be borne and ye yourselves touch the burdens with of your fingers" And then He described legal and ecclesiastical conservatism that need think it peculiar to any land The lawyers, Jesus said were always ready to stone the prophet stone him who proclaimed the dawn of day; but when ancient dust had claimed the tn. profession would erect to him costly monument; the lawyers had intercourse with living truth they kept from men the key of knowledge
