F Former Ambassador to Great Britain Submits Correspondence to Senate Committee Bearing Upon Hay-Pauncefote Treaty

Among the witnesses expected before the senate committee on interOceanic canals last week to testify regarding the circumstances attending the nego tiation of the Hay Pouncefote treaty was Joseph H. Choate, amba assador to England at that time. MT Choate was unable to appear but letters from him to Senator O'Gorman and Henry White, secretary to the embassy at that time were presented. dispatch to the Chicago Tribune relating to the hear ing says:
 MT Choate's correspondence. includ- ing his letters to Senator O'Gorman and Mir White, did not deal with the sub sidy feature of the exemption, but only with the treaty phase
 To Senator O'Gorman he wrote re- l garding the correspondence with Sec retary Hay as follows:
 1 These Oetters) if carefully perused, will, I think. be found to confirm my view that the clause in the Panama canal act exempting our coastwise shipping from tolls is a clear violation of the treaty"
 In his letter to Mir. White he said of his letters to Secretary Hay:
 ITO my mind they establish beyond question the intent of the parties en- gagged in the negotiation that the treaty should mean exactly what it says and excludes the possibility of any eXemp tion of any kind of vessels of the Unit ed States
 Equality between Great Britain and l the United States is the constant theme and especially in my last letter of Oct. ?, 1901, when I speak of Lord Lans doWne's part in the matter and say: | He has shown an earnest desire to bring to an amcable settlement. honor able alike to both parties, this long and important controversy between the two nations In substance he abrogates the Clayton Bulwer treaty, gives us an American canal, ours to build as and where We like, to own. control and gov ern, on the sole condition of it's being always neutral and free for the pas
 sage of the ships of all nations on equal terms, except that if we get into a war with any nation. we can shut it's
 
 This was the summing up of our whole two months negotiations The Choate letters to Secretary Hay
 show that MT. Choate himself suggest
 ed the provision in the Hay Paunce- fote treaty that ''the canal shall be free
 and open to the vessels of commerce
 and of war of all nations observing
 these rules
 He suggested this because of Great
 Britain's insistence that it's vessels at
 all times be on equal terms with those
 of the United States. MT Choate in-
 sisted that if Great Britain claimed this
 equality. all nations should have it. He
 regarded the granting of it to all ma = tions as victory for this country in the negotiations. Concerning it he wrote in his first letter to Secretary Hay:
 Great Britain has something to give
 us in exchange for this agreement with
 ber-the relnquishing of her rights under the Clayton Bulwer treaty-but other nations part with no such consid- eration" sasas In his letter Aug Is, 1901, he tells
 of suggesting the clause putting all na- tions on an esuality and adds: The general principle to be applied

High Cost of Living.

Why complain so much about
the high cost OF living? Con-

ing pictures furnish cheap
amusement. Would you do

automobile may be something
of luxury, but it has done a
great deal for the country at
large. Surely no progressive
citizen would destroy the motor
vehicles. Electricity is far bet

backwards OF course we are
paying more to live than did
our immediate ancestors, but
are we not receiving far more
for our money and is life not
more cheerful and inviting?
So don't worry about the high

some cash laid by invest it in
land. Land is not like stocks
and bonds. Gamblers cannot
run the prices up and down

Writer b res lntermen; amour English Monarch Took Place
 at Worcester.

Tn the American Law Review there appeared an article in which the writer made an allusion to King John of England, and said he went Ito his unlamented rest at St. Wolstan's, |" Now, is this correct? King John was buried at Worcester and in the ca thedral there, and his body has slept In that spot until now, unless, like g streak of morning cloud, 1t has melted into the infinite azure of the past. In 1797, for the purpose of identifying the resting place of the king and his remains, a committee of citizens was appointed to investigate this matter The body was identified and all that remained of it placed in a new mau soleum, where it stands today as one of the objects of interest in Worces ter cathedral. Shakespeare, in his King John," puts in the mouth oi Prince Henry the following wcris At Worcester must his body be il. tered, for so he willed it." Thus We see King John was buried in Worces ter cathedral, and it is therefore inac curate to say he was buried at St. Vol stan's. The memory of King John is not cherished with the feeling that has followed the lives and deaths of some of England's sOvereigns, and he vii be remembered only as the monarch from whom was extorted the great charter of English liberty, from whicl this country has received large par of it's valued nheritance.-Letter t( St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

CONSUMPTION OF
 WAFER INCREASES HEAVY DEMAND IS WEI
SEWER MAKES GREAT DIFFER ENCE IN WATER REQUIRED
 TO SUPPLY CITY.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
 , With the consumption of city water
 running four or five times as high as
 at the same time last year, the pump
 ing plant of the Conway waterworks
 system is now kept running 10 hours
 every day, in order to meet the de
 mand, whereas year ago 15 to 20
 hours pumping a week was all that
 was required.
 Besides a constantly growing num- Der of consumers, two other factors have made an unexpectedly large de- mand upon the water system. The principal one is the installation of the sewerage system For the flushing tanks in this system about 30,00O gal Ions are used every day, for which no revenue comes in There are "A of these tanks, which are set automatic ally to discharge into the sewers 300 gallons each every six hours, or 1,200 gallons each per day. In addition to this, of course, is the water used for flushing by private consumers. Ac- cording to R. T. Markham, who has the city garbage contract, 154 dry closets have already been closed since the sewer system has been in opera tion and new connections are being made with sewers daily.
 Another hig consumer of water is the City Ice Plant which has been using more than 100000 gallons of water a month, making noticeable difference in the amount required to he pumped. In addition to this, the extremely dry weather has caused much more water than usual to tc used for sprinkling.
 Should the consumption continue to increase at this rate, it will be a mat ter of only few years before addi tional pumping machinery will have to be installed. Both pumps are now Icing worked to practically half their full capacity, which is really the max mum demand that ought to be made On the machinery. If the consumption reached the full capacity of the pumps there would of course be no provision for supplying water for emergency purposes or in case of a breakdown to the machinery. So long as the amount consumed does not rise above the present figures, however, the city will be amply protected, as one of the pumps running 20 hours day could meet the demand if an accident should happen to the other.

OBITUARY.

On June 24. 1914, the angel Of death visited the home of Mrs. Office and took from her her only son. All was done that earthly hands could do to keep Calia here, but, alas, to no avail. God in His infinite wisdom laid his tender hand upon Calias brow and said: Come unto me, for such IS the kingdom of heaven" After suffering almost two weeks intense pain, he fell asleep in the arms of Jesus without a struggle, nevermore to suffer pain or death, never to know what sorrow and disappointment are. His voice is hushed and stilled, his footsteps will be heard no more, the chair in the home is vacant and the sweet smiling face will never greet mother and sis ter on earth again. But in heaven, where all is peace and love, dear Calia is waiting with outstretched arms for mother and sister to join him.
 The funeral services were conduct ed by Rev. Harvey and Calia was laid to rest by the Odd Fellows in the Cy- press Valley cemetery.

You have all seen black monkeys aud gray monkeys and brown mon. keys, but how many of you have seer a rainbow monkey?
 The rainbow monkeys name is the mandril and he lives in the hilly parts of Africa. He is, indeed, a weird looking creature. His snout is bright scarlet, and on either side of his long hideous face are deep grooves of pur' pie and scarlet and blue. His eyes are tiny and glow like ugly sparks oi fire.
 The mandril has funny, stubby ears and a tail that is only sawed-on stump. His hind legs are deep Vlo let color.
 In fact, if you ever see rainbow monkey, you probably will exclalm: There ain't no such animal!"
