ANDY's GIFT OF MILLION N. G
Methodist Bishops Hold That Condi.
tons Can Not Be Complied With.

Nashville, feminine members of
the College of Bishops of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church south, by reso-
luton, vetoed the recent action of the
board of trustees of Vanderbilt uni
versity in accepting Andrew Carnegie's
gift of $1,000.000 for the aid of the
medical department of the university.
The bishops held that the board had
exceeded its authority and committed
a breach of trust vested with it.
Acceptance of the gift, with Mr..
Carnegie's provision for its admins
tration, constituted, they held further,
diversion of large portion of the
funds and property of the university
from the trusts upon which the prop
erty is held.
In an explanatory address the bish.
ops said that the gift without the con-
ditions, which must be fulfilled in
good faith to the donor" would be
welcome, and added:
I'VE are unwilling that Mr.. Carnegie
should be deceived or that the univer-
sity be dismembered and the church
Of God dishonored."

INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE RE.
PORTS THAT IT Is NOT DIRECT

eVESuSTOf CONTRIBuTNcR REASONS
They Don't Mean to Say Wages Are
Too High or Even Sufficient, A.
Circumstances Alter Cases
Names Of the Sioners.

NEW AOIh.- "A negative opinion con
corning the alleged direct ratio o.

evII is conts.;s.cc: IN statement issuec
recently by the voluntary committee
Of nationally prominent social work
ers, who met here on April Is to in
vestigate the subject.
The investigators express their be
lief that injustice has been done
working girls, especially the employees
of department stores, by the wide
spread publicity given to a mistaken
view of industrial responsibility fol
the so-called white slave condition"
"The undersigned" the statement
continues, certainly do not wish to in
innate that the wages paid are toe
high or even sufficient. That is a
question to be considered on different
grounds, and our sympathy is strongly
with the working girls"
Causes Of immortality.
The conclusion of the investigators
report is as follows:
Our observation and experience in
dictate that the most important con-
tributing causes of immortality among
girls are:
vldual temperament, immoral assOci-
ates, lack of religious or ethical train
ing, injurious home influences, cramped
living accommodations, rendering pri-
vacy difficult, lack of industrial eff
cheney, idleness, unwillingness to ac-
cept available employment, love of
finery and pleasure, unwholesome
amusement, inexperience and ignor-
ance of social temptations.
I'VE therefore hold that it has not
been satisfactorily demonstrated that
low wages are direct cause of loss of
virtue of working girls

Sore Mouths May Cause Loss-Ar
Expert Gives Directions to Treat.
A few swine raisers are having
trouble with sore mouths among their
young pigs. This may or may not be
serious, but 1t is we'll to eliminate the
difficulty as quickly as possible. says
a bulletin issued by r. C. Ashley, pro.
fessor of animal husbandry of the
Washington State college. The infec.
tious or canker sore mouth is serious
though perhaps not of common occur.
renee in the northwest. Following are
some Of the symptoms characterizing
It:
The lining of the mouth and lips
becomes inflamed and swollen and the
swelling extends back over the skin
toward the eyes and threat. Watery
blisters may pr cede, later scabbing
over or forming ulvers. These are
likely to slough off, leaving bleeding
patches. The mouth may become SO
sore that the affected pigs are unable
to suck. If unchecked the disease is
apt to cause much loss.
Treatment.
Prepare solution of permanganate
Of potash of the strength of one ounce
to gallon Of water. Dip the young
pig head foremost into the solution
and hold it there fer moment. Two
OF three dips will do no harm. This
treatment may be repeated daily for a
week or until recovery takes place.
Also wash the sow's udder with the
same solution. This will tend to check
the spread of the infection.
Clean out the pens or houses and
clean up the yards. Then spray all
pens, feeding troughs and quarters
with a good coal tar dip such as kreso,
kreo of zenaleum. Any good disin-
fectant will do as we'll After the dis
ease is eliminated continue to keep
things clean.
