series.

mental quartermaster was in his locality
and Mr. Stowe got him to drive his team
while going down the mountain and he
slept nearly two hours among what was
left of the officers baggage. He says that
he was black and blue after that sleep
from bounding around in the wagon, but
he was greatly refreshed.
The train parked that night near some
meadow land and one of the transfers,
having found a scythe, started in with
the others to cut grass for their starving
animals. An officer and squad arrested
them. They were taken before the com
mander of the brigade, but the brigade
quartermaster who was lover of horses.
begged them off. When he emerged
from the tent of the commanding officer
he said You boys can go back to your
teams. but you will have to let your
horses starve, | am afraid
The night before he parted company
with his team he was asleep on his seat,
waiting for the order to move forward.
when he was startled by the jingling Of
cavalry sabers. He started up, for only
] the night before they had threatened by IA
strong cavalry force of the enemy. 1t
proved to be a large detail of Union cav
airy, guarding Confederate cavalry who
had been taken prisoners on the attempt
! to capture the train. One of the prisoners
remarked. when he observed the wagon
train: The boys will get them tonight.

I his guards who used the concise and EN-
phatic phrase Not by a id sight

Having done what was expected of

He was thinking of the regular waiter

alternately clarifying each other and
the institution that supports them,
with painstaking enthusiasm, with
out realizing that they are merely
clarifying and perpetuating their
meal ticket, and that the public has
right to expect that they either show
returns or mend their methods, for
directly in the face of their self-lauda-
ton, crime, insanity, debauchery and
frivolity have more than doubled in
the very period during which they are
lauding themselves for their devo-
ton to the business that buffers their
parsnips.
This is an age of statistics. People
are demanding formulated facts and
figures on which to base the efficien-
cy of all institutions. Guesswork will
not do. For a group of preachers to
get together and laud each other in
bilking enough money from the pub
lie to keep their organization going
is not enough. If their system is
right they will be able to show results
on the right side of the ledger of civil
ization, but, unfortunately for them,
their figures are against them on eV-
cry count.
In 1911 there were $4,000 arrests in
this much praised Sunday school
center" Chicago. In 1912 there were
$4,000 and in 1913 10000 arrests,
10000 accidents, $1,000 premature
deaths due to peoples mismanage-
ment of their own bodies, 10000 fires,
572 suicides and 233 murders, most
of them due to the same kind of loose,
unorganized thinking that these pas
tors employ in their Sunday schools.

they abhor, dancing, moving picture

The greatest existing obstacle TO the
expansion OF trade between the United
STATES and SOUTH America Is the dcfec.
tive and roundabout system Of financial
dealings which prevails. South Amer

rope, chiefly in England. It's external
debt, Federal, State and municipal,
amounting to 81 ,633 $3.50, IS held over
