THE NEXT WORST LIFE.

An exchange truly says The
preacher has a hard time, II his
hair is grey, he is old, If he is a
young man, he hasn't had exper-
fence, If he has ten children, he
has too many If he has none, he
should have, and isn't setting a
good example, II his wife sings
IN the choir, she is preSuming. If
she doeS't she isn't interested in
in her husbands work. II a
preacher reads from notes, he is
a bore. If he speaks extempor-
ancouSly, he isn't deep enough.
II he stays at home in his study,
he doesn't mix enough with the
people, If he is seen around on
the streets, he ought to be at
home getting up a good sermon.
II he calls on some very poor
family, he is playing too much
grand stand. II he calls at the
home of the rich, he is an aristo-
crat, Whatever he does some
one could have told him how to
DO it better. He has a fine time
living off Of donations which new

never mature. Next to being an

PANAMA DEFENSES
 ARE DEFECTIVE.
Possibility to Dominate Naval Base
 from Cuban Territory.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Arny and navy officers who went to Cuba to gather data to be used in devising plan for the fertilization of the Guantanamo naval station as an outpost of the Panama canal returned today on the presidential yacht MayfoWer.
 The work of the board was confined to an inspection of the large tract of land in the rear of the existing naval station, arrangements for the acqufsi- tion of which are now being com pleted While the naval officials were endeavoring to find a. solution of the problem of an adequate natural water supply for the naval station 1t was discovered by the strategists that through an oversight in the original plans of defense it will be possible for an army advancing on the station from the rear to occupy position on Cuban soil by artillery that would complete ly dominate the naval base. It was decided, while engaged in the acquire ment of a right of way across Cuban territory to one of the rivers in the rear of the station, to enlarge the tract to be purchased so as to include this particular hill where an enemy might operate to advantage. This joint board has been engaged in relocating the rear defenses of the station as a, con sequence of this enlargem ment.

Sherman Law
 Not Violated 
GOVERNMENT LOSES SHOE MA
 cHINERY CASE
UNANIMOUS DECISION
Supreme Court Fails to Find Sufficient Intent to Constitute Monopoly
 Prosecution on Another Count.

Washington. Feb. 3.-For the first time the supreme court of thee United States today held in effect in the shoe machinery trust case that the sherman anti trust law does not forbid the mere combining of non-conpeti- tors in an industry. Solicitor General Bullitt, for the government, had con- tended that if the combination brought of the trade it was forbidden by the antitrust law.
 Courts Decision Unanimous.
 sThe disintegration aimed at bv the statute does not extend to reducing all manufacture to isolated units of the lowest degree declared Justice Holmes in announcing that unani- nous decision of the court, and the mere organization of the United Shoe Machinery company by the heads of several non competing groups of shoe manufacturers had not been in viola ton of the law.
 Lawful to Make Every Part of Ma
 chine.
 The justice continuedA to say that it is as lawful for one corporation to make every part" of a steam engine and to put the machine together as it would be for one to make the boilers and another to make the wheels. The bringing of non competing branches of a trade into juxtaposition alone by
 
 substance, did not furnish sufficient intent" to raise the conduct to the dignity of an attempt to monopolize.
 Prosecution on Another Count.
 Despite today's decision, officials Of the department of justice declared that the United States Shoe Machinery company would be prosecuted for the alleged criminal violations of the Sherman law under the one remaining count of the indictments returned against the company, the validity Of which was sustained by the lower court. That count, which was not be- foEe the supreme court, charged in ef- feet that t'le company was nonopol1z- ing the industry by combination, by tying the various shoe machines to- gether, by the destruction of oompe- tition, and by the acquisition of com petitors' business. Officials vigorously maintained that the decision did not affect the governments case on this count.

Air Sickness te Inorea.a.

Climbing into the air has developed three new types of diseases: | Noun tain sickness, due to the muscular work of clim ping in addition to the rarefao- ton of the air. 2. Balloon sickness, produced only at great heights by the thinness of the air. 3. Aviator's sick ness, in which more severe symptoms result from the rapidity of the change of atmospheric pressure, especially in descent. Berget notes that aeroplanes may rise to 10. GOO feet in an hour The humming or cracking produced in the ears IS the same as in balloon disease but there is also a peculiar uneasiness and the aviator is quickly out of breath The French aeFonaut mentions further that the descent in a sailing flight may be at the rate of 1000 feet or more a minute :, Morane, at Ffavre having dropped 5000 feet in six minutes The effects are heart beats of great force. but no increase in rate hummiRg in the ears. and an exaggerated special uneasiness.
