While the king Of Italy, under the
Italian constitution. Is the commander
In chief Of the military forces. 1t Is not
likely that he will assume control OF
any OF his troops operating on the Aus
tro-Itaiian frontier. The invasion OF
Austria Is being directed by Count
Luigi Cadorna, chief Of star. and Cen
eral Carlo Caneva. the latter the only
general on the rolls OF the Italian
army. The highest rank held by any
other officer In the Italian army is
that of terent generate. or lieutenant
general. but whenever lieutenant
general has served in command OF an
Italian army during hostilities he is ele-
waited to the rank Of general Of the
army"
This rank came to General Caneva
as a result of the fact that he com
manded the Italian forces in Tripoh In
the Italian-Turkish war Of 1911 Italy
sent an army Of invasion to Tripon In
September Of that year. Throughout
the Tripolitan campaign Caneva had
full charge OF the military operations.
General Caneya. who Is seventy years
old. is described as a man Of strong
character and great military ability.
The plan Of campaign now being put
into execution has been worked out in
detail under the direction Of General
Cadorna. chief Of STAFF: General Porro.
subchief Of stan. and General Caneva.

FARMERS ARE RELIGIOUS
Survey Shows That They Compose

Madison.-Not only the open country

the report of survey just completed
by c. j. Galpin, secretary of the Wis

This survey was made for the pur.
pose of finding ways of improving and
meeting the needs of the rural and
small town church. The churches of
a representative denomination in every
state in the union were canvassed and
it is believed that the results obtained
will aid materially in meeting the
needs of country parishes.
The surveyors found that in the
country parishes ninety-five out of ev.

congregations came from farm homes.
In the churches or hamlets, little cen.

czARINA ESCAPED THE CROWD
unweIcome Popularity Forced Wife of
Monarch to Climb Ladder When
Recognized.

The czarina's popularity in Russia
has been enormously increased since
the war on account Of the work that
she has been doing for the Russian
Red Cross.
1t is interesting to recall that her
majesty once had an extraordinary ex-
perience for royal parsonage while
on a visit to Germany. She was out
shopping one day, attended only by
one lady companion, and she had
hoped to remain unrecognized by the
people. While she was making some
purchases In a jewelers. shop, how
ever, the news of her identity got
abroad, and in a very few moments
there was large crowd outside the
premises.
Exit through the front door was out
of the question, so the czarina asked
the jeweler to let herself and her COM
panion out of the back of the shop.
The jeweler replied that that was
impossible, as the back yard was in
closed by a very high boarding which
would effectually cut OFF their re-
treat.
That does not matter" said the
empress. Get ladder and we will
climb over it"
A ladder was brought and the car
ina and her companion rushed up it,
climbed over the boarding, jumped into
a quiet street, and made their es-
cape as quickly as they could.
A minute later the jewelers. shop
window was smashed to atoms by
the surging and excitable crowd.-Re-

All Danes Can Nn4.

Danish women have received equal
rights with men and Danish men with
each other; the recent constitutional
change which enfranchises women and
makes them eligible to all offices also
abolishes the property qualifications
which have helped to keep the Dane
melancholy. Everybody can vote in
Denmark now. even the king. Twen-
ty-nine years is the voting age to
start with, but as time rolls over the
little kingdom it is to be gradually
reduced until it reaches twenty-five.
Thus the older Dane grows the
younger he can begin to vote.-The
