LONDON, March 1.-THE British
Salvation army has given ten thou.
sand of its men to the British army.
These men are either at the front or
in training. In addition, the Saliva
tionists' social Institutes have trained
a thousand men who on presenting
themselves were unfit physically and
morally for military life, but are
now up to standard.
One Salvationist officer has four
sons with the colors and a daughter
on Red Cross duty at the front. This
daughter is herself a Salvationist cap
tain. She is only one of the many
Salvationists working with the hos
pital corps at the front. A dozen
motor ambulances are manned entire
ly, from drivers to attendants, with
members. The first five of these am
balances were purchased out of a
fund of $l2,500 raised by Salvationists
in addition TO the sum of nearly $780,
600 for the Prince of Wales fund.
So efficient has been the manage
ment of the Salvation ambulances
that one of the men was entrusted
to the command of complete ambu-
lance section of q cars belonging to
the regular corps.

AT the corner of one street he saw
a hook fastened to the wall, from
which, as he was informed by the
citizens, the Russians had hanged
one of their soldiers for plundering.
There was still visible on the ad-
jacent wall the following inscription
in Russian: "The czar sent out sol
diers, not pillagers, to fight for him"
Adelt goes on to say that the Rus
SLAMS maintained strict discipline in

their stringency he mentions that
one soldier who stole ham was
given fifty strokes with the knout;
while another, who strayed into the
quarters of other soldiers and made
undue noise there, got thirty strokes.

Bishop Tells Of Incident at White
House-Informed by Senator.
1ndianapolis.-How President Wilson
went down on his knees and led his
cabinet in prayer at recent meeting
was told here by Bishop William f.
Anderson of Cincinnati at session of
the Indiana Methodist Episcopal con-
ference.
A United States senator told the bish-
op of the incident. The senator had
heard it from one of the cabinet mem
bers who had prayed with the presi-
dent.
"When the president arrived at the
cabinet meeting" said Bishop Ander-
son, "his face was solemn. It was evil
dent that serious affairs of the nation
were on his mind. He said to the cabi-
net members:
:" I don't know whether you men be-
neve In prayer or not. I do. Let US
pray and ask the help Of Cod
"And right there the president of the
United States fell upon his knees, and
the members Of the cabinet did the
same, and the president offered
prayer to God.'

ERROR GIVES SCARE
TO NAVAL PAYMAS1ER
Slip In Making Up Estimates
Cuts $4,000 From Pay.

Washington.-1n making up the navy
department estimates for the ensuing
fiscal year enough enlisted men were
overlooked to make an aggregate Of
$4,000.
1t caused not a little CONSERVATION in
the Office Of the paymaster general Of
the navy. A board Of four officers was
appointed to 60 over the figures and
locate the error, and it took them four
days to do it.
One year somebody overlooked all of
the warrant officers assigned to duty in
the engine rooms Of our naval vessels.
The amount involved on that occasion
was $224,O0O.
The error managed to pass undiscov-
cred for a time. It finally got to the en-
CINE room crews, however, and they
promptly announced that unless their
salaries were included in the estimates
instanter not an engine in the navy
would turn over. It did not take the
powers that be long to discover the
error and correct it. .>. g.
The marvel to officials is that so few
errors occur in making up the esti-

TABLET FOR indian
FRIEND OF WHITES
Seattle Professor Seeks to
Honor Chief Pat Kanim,

Seattle, Wash.-Professor Edward s.
Meany Of the University of Washing
ton is arousing public interest in the
memory Of old Chief Pat Kanim Of the
Snoqualmie and Snohomish Indians.
Chief Pat, stanch friend of the early
whites, is one of the forgotten heroes
of pioneer days, and Professor Meany
wants his grave marked with suit
able monument.
In the days when settlers had reason
to fear the lurking red foes in the deep
forests Chief Pat Kanim's people were
powerful where Everett now stands.
1t is not known just when the chief
died, but he was buried on a bank of
the Snohomish river.
When the grave was threatened by
the overfowing river relatives moved
the remains to the little cemetery on
the Tulalip Indian reservation, where
many Of the tribes he ruled in power
now live in humble homes.
Bancroft's History Of Washington
tells Of the chiefs craftiness in driving
Glasgow and Rabbeson from the first
settlement on WILDLY island in 184S.
He, made great drive with dogs and
secured sixty deer for feast Of assem-
bled warriors. He counseled In favor
of driving the white men out of the
country. as " =
Glasgow and Rabbes0n went back to
Tumwater,s and the next year Pat Ka-
MIN led an assault on Fort Nisqually.
While Pat Kanim was parleying inside
the stockade his brother was killed
leading an attack by the Indians. Pat
Kanim was spared, and in 1850 he
made a trip to San Francisco in sail
ing vessel What he saw on that jour-
ney made him resolve to become a
friend of the white man. He faithfully
lived up to that resolution for the rest
Of his life.

POUNDS THE SPINE TO
REDUCE LARGE HEART
Contraction USUAL Follows
" Quickly, Says Professor.

Philadelphia. - Enlargement of the
heart-the "athletic heart''-may be re-
duced by simply tapping the spine
with hammer, according to Professor
Meyer Solis-C Cohen Of this city. He de-
scribed the treatment in the New York
Medical Journal. OF course it should
not be attempted save by physician.
The tapping should be done, he says,
on the "spinous process Of the seventh
cervical vertebra," which in every day
English is the protruding vertebra in
the spine at the bottom of the neck, a
little above the shoulder line.
To protect the spine from the direct
shock Of the blow Professor Soils
Cohen has usually used a rubber eraser
or piece Of soft rubber or linoleum
about six inches long, one and a half
inches wide and about quarter of an
inch thick. --... ... --
Putting this deadener against the
spine at the point indicated, he gives
series of sharp and vigorous blows with
an ordinary hammer that has rubber
tip or with jewelers. hammer. In an
emergency he lays his fingers on the
spine and then beats the fingers with
his fist.
This exercise on the spine is usually
followed, he says, by contraction of
the heart and Of the aorta, which lat
ter is the big artery that comes out of
the top Of the heart and supplies the
entire body with blood.

EntomoIogists Outline Plan For lnfest-
cd Area, Telling How Effective Work
Can Be Done In Doing Away With
tho Insects and Preventing Further
Damage Next Year.
Washington. - The department of
agriculture is making a special effort
this fall to prevent the spread of gypsy
and brown tail moths. It is the pur-
pose Of the government experts to put
into operation some effective means of
reducing further damage to orchards
and forests by these pests.
In the areas infested by these pests
much effective work can be done to
reduce the damage that these insects
are likely to cause the following year,
according to entomologists of the de-
partment.
The caterpillars of the brown tail
moth spin webs in the fall which
remain on the tips Of the twigs and
branches during the winter. These
webs should be cut and burned so that
injury will not be caused by the cater
pillars the following summer. Par
t1cular attention should be given to
webs Of this insect on trees which
grow round dwellings or in orchards.
The apple, pear, cherry, oak and will
low are among the trees which are
favored as food by the brown tail
moth caterpillars. In order to mini
mize the damage which is likely to
result as much time as possible should
