While there can be no doubt of the

is simply that there must at all times
be sufficient water IN the radiator to
immense the outlet from the cylinders.
Advice to the effect that radiators
should be refilled at regular intervals
is not as necessary where positive
pump circulation is maintained, though
in systems of the other kind there can
be no siphonic action unless the water
in the radiator is maintained at the
proper level.
Lubricating oil that has been used
can be made fit for use again in many
cases by the simple process Of flltering
it through a piece of pipe, about 8 of

long, bent into the shape of siphon

be taken to remove all rust with sand

before the application of the paint for

There is no lit,lc interest in South
CarOlina--an outside 10 our State,
too, for that matter--in the spccula-
tiUnS as to what is to become Of Port
Royal as 10 her naval standing. 1t
viii be recalled that there has al
ways been more or less trouble there
with the men connected with the
navy department, and in all the Incl
dents that have tran5pired at that
port "pop-skull" or "blind tiger" Ii
QuOr has played an unsavory part
And to all appearances there has
been no great effort locally to mend
the situation. An interview with the
new Secretary Of the Navy is inter
eSting in the extreme in connection
with these facts. We quote from a
Washington dispatch:
The Secretary said that he was
most hopeful of making that place
(POrt ROyaD the equal Of what it
had once been in it's best days, when
workshops were running full blast
when The island upon which it is To-
Gated was alive with officers and their
families, and when everything SEEM
ed to indicate a long and prosperous
future. He depicted what once had
been done there, and said that he saw
little reason why the same things, or
even better things, could not be ac-
complished in the future. Then
turning suddenly to those who had
called upon him, he said that there
was one thing that would have to be
done before he would move a peg.
Stop the sale of blind tiger liC"or
to the men at the barracks" be said
land you will SEQ Port Royal Dlos-
som like the rose in spring-tinlc."
One thing must be done, he maintain
steps to rehabilitate the station-the

station come 10 the frout again aud
ciplinary school you will see a place
that not only the people Of the i'm
mediate section. but those Of the en-
tire country, will be proud to call
their own"
Port Royal is anxious to regain
her One-time prestige as a naval sta
ton. The question is, does she want
to do so sufficiently to first rid her
self Of her obnoxious "tigers"? Down
in that neck of the woods "Ephraim
is joined to his idol" to a degree that
Is astounding to outsiders.

BASIS OF UNION IN 1914.
United and Southern Presbyterians
Agree on Plan for Next Assembly,

N
Atlanta, Ca, May 19.-After three
days OF business sessions, at which
perceptible progress is believed to
have been made toward the eventual
consummation of an organic union
between at least two of the three
Presbyterian organizations holding
general assemblies here, the sessions
or those bodies were temporarily dis
continued Saturday afternoon.
Interest in the assemblies of the
United and Southern Presbyterian
churches to-day centered in the Joint
report Of committees from the re-
spectire organizations containing a
proposed basis Of union for the two
organizations. Upon recommends
tions of the committee both assem-
biies agreed to postpone considera-
ton or this basis Of union until the
convention of the 1914 assemblies.
The name Of the proposed organiza-
ton formed by the amalgamation of
the two churches was suggested as
me United Presbyteria" Church Of
North America"
A novel feature of the No~;herr
Presbyterian Assembly Saturday was

His remarks were greeted with
cheers. A Union veteran sprang to
chair and began singing "My Coun-
try, Tis of Thee" and the entire as
sembly joined in with enthusiasm.
