All forward looking minds must feel
some apprehension for the mental, moral
and especially the physical well-beIng of
the American people, as they see how the
Sabbath is more and more given over to
business and pleasure. No nation can be
strong unless it has rest day every week !;
no man or community can be spiritually
strong unless he or it sets aside and uses
the Sabbath for the worship of the unseen
Spiritual Power that made and upholds
the universe and it's freight of life. Glad
stone attributed much of his vigorous
health and his long life to the fact that
nothing, not even cabinet-making ever
prevented him from attending church.
The Puritan in America gave the endur-
ing moral fibre to our national life. His
Sabbataranism was a portion of this
might in him; he reverenced God, he
Sabt atarianism would greatly benefit
this land of ours. Modern civilization
would, of course, make the old Sabbath
quiet, nuch different than it was in the
primitive communities three generations
ago, but we are noisy about many need
less things, sports that do not rest,
amusements that do not recreate, bust
ness that does not yield permanent
profit. Consider the old adage, "Tbe
Sabbath is for works of mercy aud neces.
sity only" One phase of the Puritan
life has long appealed to us, that SO little
cooking was done on Sunday. The sun
day meals were prepared on Saturday.
The slave of the cookstove was manu-
mtted on the Sabbath. Could we not
initiate that custom and have simpler
meals on the Sabbath, thus giving free
dom to worship to our modern kitchen
bondwomen, whether mother or hired
servant.

The Weather House.

A very ingenious contrivance for
foretelling the weather is the old
fashioned weather house," largely
made in Switzerland. 1t is arrang-
ed in such a way that two figures
act in response to the twisting of a
piece of catgut. The material, sup
ported by a wire, controls the move
ments of little platform on either
end of which is placed a model.
Excessive moisture in the air causes
the catgut to twist and turn che
platform round, so that the man
energies from one of the doors in
the front of the house. Reverse
conditions of the atmosphere bring
about the contraction of the cat
gut, and the platform swings back,
thus bringing the figure of the W :
man into prominence at her par
ticular door. The making Of a
weather house is quite an easy mat
ter.

seasoning of salt and pepper. Cover
and simmer gently for twenty minutes,
then set the pan in the oven and cook
half-hour to brown the meat. Serve
on platter with cress or parsley at
the end. New potatoes and peas with
carrots make good vegetables to serve
with it, or to cook with it.
Veal suffers in reputation because
it is often put on the market too
young. 1t should be at least six weeks
old before butchering, and if well
cooked and properly masticated is not
hard to digest. Veal because of it's
gelatinous composition, slips down too
easily when being masticated, and SO
often it is not well divided in the
mouth and consequently causes intes-
final troubles.
Veal also spoils quickly and in hot
weather should not be kept long.
Veal with blush tinge is not fit to
buy, it either indicates an undernour-
ished animal or, more probably, too
young for the market.
When buying veal select only that
which is pinkish (ashes of roses) this
will, if the flesh is firm, insure a good
product.

MAKE IMPROVEMENTS

Secretary f. B. Bloom was yester
day morning instructed by the rail-
road committee of the Chamber OF
Commerce to demand that the Iron
Mountain railroad make the following
improvements at the Union station:
The erection of a track and passen-
ger shed on Fourth avenue, from fifty
feet east of Main to Georgia street;
the paving of Fourth avenue from
Main street to Georgia street; the
enlargement of the white waiting
room at the Union station; the paw
ing of the throughfare just north OF
the station with verified brick blocks
the parking of the vacant lot just
north of the railroad.
These demands will be sent t.
Superintendent j. w. Dean at once
with the request that he send mis-
answer by July Is. If the answer is
not satisfactory, the matter will be
taken before the railroad commission
with the request that they improve
the facilities for handling passengers
at Pine Bluff.
The conference between the differ
ent committees and Superintendent

noon, when Mr.. Dean asked for 9

ments were wanted at the Union
station. He said the recommendation
would be submitted to president
Bush at st. Louis. who would make
known his answer to Pine Bluffians
on July Is. 1k-
Mr.. Dean made nondefinite promises
before leaving for little Rock. His
action in the matter will probably
cause the committees to compel the
railroad company to make the i'm
provements recommended.

TURN YANDY BACK
TO CONFERENCES
This Is Recommendation of
Majority of Methodist
Committee.
LAKESIDE IS SECOND LET THESE LITIGATE
Plan Is That Eight Conferences
Should Fight for Rights in Uni.
yersity. and Conference Estab-
lish New University.

Oklahoma City, Okla, May ID
Methodist rights in Vanderbilt uni
versity, which until recently have
been cared for by the general confer
ence OF the NJ. E. Church, South, will
be turned back to the eighth annual
conference, which decided property TO
Vanderbilt, then known as Central
university, according to the report
completed by the special Vanderbilt
committee of the conference early to-
day. After a session which lasted
until past midnight, the committee
met again this morning to put the
finishing touches to its reports.
In addition to the majority report
making the above recommendation a
minority report was drawn recon-
mending that the conference retain
whatere rights it still may have in
Vanderbilt after the decision Of The
Tennessee supreme court held that the
conference did not control the uni
versity.
After recommending that the geHer-
al conference turn back the property
of the eight original patronizing
Mississippi. White, River, Little Rock,
Alabama, North Alabama. Louisiana
and Tennessee, provision is made for
the board of education to furnish
money to these conference to test out
their rights in the university, ii they
desire to do SO.
The report provides for commits
sion of sixteen composed of four
bishops, four ministers and eight lay
men, to take steps to establish new
theological school and lay the
foundation for a new university by
taking over requests of property for
that purpose.
In short the conference, under this
report, will wash its hands OF the
whole matter by turning the property
interests back to the sources FROM
which it came into the hands Of tine
general conference. 1t is thought
these annual conference which
organized the old Central university
afterwards called Vanderbilt, will
have right of control over the uni
versity which does not rest in the
general organization.
The majority report is signed by D.
H. Limbaugh, chairman, and Frank

report is signed by W. Asbury Cnr.s-
ton. ]. w. Perry. H. N. Snyder, }.

BECKER GETS BLOW
D0Il-Likc Widow Of One of Four Exc

Makes Disclosures Damag-

She was on the witness stand only
minutes, but in that time the widow
OF one OF The gunner put to deatll
for Roscnthal's murder dealt what is
considered the severest blow Becker
has suffered since the opening of his
trial. Though Rose, Weber and Val
Ion have repeated their stories with
embellishments, her testimony caused
a much greater STIR.
Mrs ROSenberg's story was brief
and told in the simplest of words. It's
main advantage to the state was that
it gave confederation to the Earrf 5
tives related by each of the men Wit
nesses. The incidents she recited
dove-tailed into the C" essi0ns of the
informers, and gave lded impress
ivenesS to them.
For the moment she sat IN the wit
ness chair she held the attention of
the courtroom. Her brief testimony
brought the jurors to the edges of
their chairs.
Four We're Guilty.
Practically, She asserted that the
four gunner who went to the cleo
trio chair did the murder. She said
she overheard Jack Rose urging her
husband in the name of Becker to
have Rosenthai killed. The conversa-
ton took Mace in her room in
Southern Boulevard Bronx.
Don't you know Rosenthaf Is
squealing on Becker?' she quoted Rose
as saying "And the only way you
can fix it UP with Becker is by you
getting the other boys to kill Rosen-
thai"
Her husband and "Billiard Ball
Jack" Rose ceased their conversation
the moment they observed her watch
ing them, apparently within ear-shot,
the widow testified.
The Blood Money.
She told how next day, Lefty
Louie" and "Gyp the Blood" awaited
her husband in her home. "Dago
Frank" and Lefty Louie" came IN.
She said they had package OF
money. The four retired out OF her
sight into another room. When they
came back she noticed that Whitley
