Probably the most famous parson who was a sailor in his youth was the eminent Doctor Newton, the friend of Cowper. and joint author with him of the Olney hymns, Newtons ad
 ventures during his seafaring life would fill a volume His father was master Of ship in the Mediterranean trade and at II Newton joined it.
 Then he was waylaid by the press gang and forced into the navy and, having attempted to escape at Ply. mouth, he was treated so harshly that he escaped again and embarked on an African trader, and for years after ward he served on ships engaged in the West Indies. Yet. although there was no kind of wickedness which he did not commit in those wild days, he lived to write one of the most beau tiful hymns in the English language, Come. My Soul, Thy Suit Prepare"

CONGRESS ACTS 0N
 WILSON'S PROGRAM
PLANS IMMEDIATE PREPARATION OF MEASURES RECOMMENDED
 BY PRESIDENT.

 Washington. - President Wilson s suggestion to Congress in his trust address that the government and busi ness men are ready to meet each other half way in common effort to square business methods with both public opinion and the law. fell on attentive ears and struck a responsive chord in representatives of all political parties
 The atmosphere of cooperation and
 accommodation" in the message: the reforms proposed, expressed in terms of conservation and the spirit of friend lIness to supersede antagonism in dealing with big business which domi- hated the presidents thoughts, aroused expressions of approval from all sides.
 Throughout the delivery of the ad- dress the assembled senators and rep resentatives listened intently. applaud ing frequently.
 Before the plaudits of his audience had ceased and as the president was passing from the house chamber, his utterances had precipitated action.
 Certain parts of the address were referred to committees and it was an- nounced that work would begin at once on the preparation of the pro posed measures.
 The only unfavorable criticism on the message emanated from Progress sives. Representative Murdock, the Progressive leader, said that the sug- gestions for the solution of the trust evil are inadequate and would ren- der the trust evil more acute" One of the mos, significant comments came from Senator Gallinger, leader of the Republican minority in the upper house. who represents the most con seryative type of Republicanism
 The presidents recommendations are moderate said Senator Galinger
 and for most part wise. It seems to me there is nothing in the recon mendations that need disturb business men or that would justify radical leg , islation. If the Democratic members in both branches of Congress will | formulate bills along the lines sug gested by the president and abandon their method of legislation by party caucus. they will find the Republicans | ready 10 cooperate with them in bring ! ing about legislation that will be ot real benefit to the country, and vii ! harm no one"

 McAlester, Okla-Seven men were shot to death and three persons were wounded when three convicts attempt ed to escape from the state peniten tiary and were slain by guards One Of the men murdered by the convicts in their mad dash for liberty was Joan K. Thomas of Muskogee. formerly United States district judge and once congressman from Illinois.
 Despite the commotion caused by the. three men in trying to shoot down every one who came in their way, no general attempt was made by other conVicts to join in the delivery.
 The three mutineers were encourag- ed by their less desperate fellows, who cheered the onslaught of the armed prisoners. So rapidly did the three convicts shoot down those in their path that they reached the prison gate before the guards could return their fire
