most dWelt upon in the examination.
 This practice is at the bottom of the dope" system which figured so largely in the proceedings of the now historic court. Sometimes dope" amounted to nothing more than the conclusions the midshipmen would reach about the eX- animation from the points most dWelt upon in the classroom. At other times, according to the testimony, instructors would Indicate certain portions of the subject which it would be advisable for the members of the class to study, and at other times would go so far as to indicate certain limitations which would include the examination. One of the most important recomm endations Of the court was that the instruction should be of such a nature that the av- craze midshipman could pass the ex- animation in the subject without any special help.
 Other recommendatio tions were not so radical The changes in the methods of preparing examination papers and guarding them will be put in effect without difficulty, and the sections can easily be arranged alphabetically in stead of according to class standing. In this work Captain Eberle probably will have the help of the academic aid,' an official suggested in the report of the court. It is rumored that this position is to be filled by Captain George R. Clark, formerly commandant of midshipmen.
 Of extreme interest is the direction of the department that a further in vestigation be conducted into the cases of the large number of midshipmen who were shown to have had posses sion of considerable advance informa- tion on the examination in modern languages. One of the important lines of investigation pursued by the court was for the purpose of developing the facts concerning the distribution of the advance information. Nearly every member of the two upper classes who was on the stand stated that he be- lieved 90 or 95 per cent of his class mates had a substantial portion of the examination, and witnesses named a large proportion of the members of each class as having this information.
 The evidence brought before the court never fully explained the wide spread distribution of advance infor-
 nation on the modern language exami- iations According to the evidence members of the first and second classes only obtained access to the information mailed to Midshipman Moss at half past on the evening before the ex- animation, yet nearly the whole of these two classes-more than 300 midship- men in all-had the greater part of the information.

HE appointment ol hoio isooo
 ing (Sir Rufus Daniel Isaacs)
 to head the committee of
 British and French bankers who came to this country in the en- deavor to arrange for loan of $l,0OO,- 0OO,OOO is truly a tribute to the ability of one who has risen from the bottom to the top.
 He is a surprising man. To start ones career by making a sad hash of things on the Stock Exchange and to finish as lord chief justice of England every generation few people achieve careers as remarkable, and there is nothing out of the way in a mans be- coming a lord chief justice if his in- clinations are of that kind. But of those who rise to eminence few have pursued so incalculable a path. Less than four years ago there was a quite considerable demand for his expulsion from public life; today he sits supreme over British judges.
 Sir Rufus early experiences on the Stock Exchange before he embraced the more lucrative profession of poli- tics and the bar were entirely to his credit as a man if unf1attering to his abilities as a stockbroker. He might have taken that first essay as proof that he was never meant for success as a financier and so avoided his recent misfortunes. His original inclination was to become a sailor, and once he was on the point of running away to sea in quite the grand manner of TO- nance. But wiser counsels prevailed, and he went by way of the Stock Ex- change to the bar as a practicing bar rister. There was something birdlike about his aspect in wig and gown-an agile alertness, swift, clean keenness that made him stand out from the row of barristers in court like a bold pen drawing against a background of gray wash. Commerce was his speciality.
 There was once an important com mercial case in which he was engaged as usual, against Sir Edward Carson He had been cross examining an obsti- nate witness for day and a half. For much of that weary time he had been striving valnly to extract a certain point that he wanted very badly. He could not get it. He worked on and on-patlent polite persistent-wearing the witness down little by little, and at last, quite suddenly, out came the pre- else thing that he wanted.

by the fire from the German guns. It has also been said that many Russian guns have been captured only after the last shell had been fired.
 All Sides Realize Needs.
 The British and French realize this and as result have exerted their best | efforts in forcing the Dardanelles so that the supply of Russian ammuni- ton might be augmented. Other re- ports tell of the ammunition shortage now being felt by the Turkish armies, but the truth of these statements has never been established. It is known, however, that the Germans used every diplomatic method known to gain the consent of Roumania to be allowed to send munitions across this neutral country to aid their Turkish allies.

The women live at the training hos tel, LeGney House, a pretty old fash toned mansion which has been es- pecially fitted up by Mrs. Moir. the wife of the chief of the inventions branch of the munitions board. It has pleasant gardens, but the workers have small time to enjoy them during the week end, and the housekeeping is Of the simplest nature, the food being ade- quate, but plain.
 The women must enter into an agree ment for six months stay before they will be accepted for training, and they must also agree to offer no suggestions regarding the forewomen under whom they work. The managers at the works absolutely reserve the privilege of appointing their own forewomen.

This is especially true with the ladies who serve at the can teens which have been established through private funds at Woolwich ar senal and at the different munition factories and dockyards, as we'll as at the large railroad stations in London, for the purpose of serving something substantial to eat, with hot coffee and tea, to the intuition workers and to
 the soldiers passing through London. l Caste and social prestige seem to be | almost forgotten at these canteens and
 army buffets, the women working to- gether in frank comradeship.

the output has substantially increased. At Vickers' huge works at Barrow-in- Furness they have taken on goo extra women and are making arrangements to accept 1000 more. but the smaller factory at Erith is at present better suited to the training of the workers.
 Lady Lawrence's Canteens.
 Lady Lawrence, whose husband, Baron Lawrence, is on duty as captain of battalion in a Bedfordshire regi- ment, has taken the initiative in form ing the intuition makers canteen com- mittee, which started it's work in the face of violent opposition. The gently born women who work in 1t are on duty at Woolwich through the night until early morning, their principal purpose being to serve the men with hot tea and coffee as they come from the ar senal between and a. m. at the end

of the twelve hour shift. The public houses (saloons) are thus deprived of the company of hundreds of tired men who were accustomed to stream through their doors every morning,
 Lady Lawrence was finally able to persuade the war department to allow her assistants access behind the high walls of Woolwich arsensal, and the women begin to arrive at the railroad station at Woolwich along about mid night, clad in oilskins and stout high boots if the weather is indictment and cold, as it often is at that hour of the morning. They have to walk to the arsenal gates along a road unlighted by a single lamp, as the authorities take no chances of Zeppelins discover ing the exact location of their intuition factory. Their personal protection from cold and rain within the arsenal

matters it will be remembered that the court reached the conclusion that the whole system of indicating in some way the character of the examination in the different subjects was inadvis- able. This means that a radical change must be made in the system of instruction at the Naval academy. In most departments it has been the prac- tice to devote about one month of the four constituting a term to reviewing the matters which are regarded as most important and which the midshipmen naturally infer will be the subjects

 VEN with millions of men and Hruh the most modern rifles and E artillery an army is practi- AzMsHM cally useless unless provided with an ample supply of ammunition. The nations now at war realize this, and many experts believe that in the end the side which has the last shell will be the victor
 As result of this all England and France have turned their hands to the manufacture of munitions. Little is known in this country about the am munition factories in Germany, as the German censor allows no news of this nature to pass. It is known, however, that the Krupp works, where the guns and shells are made, are the largest in the world, and, judging from the num- Der of shells they have used since the beginning of the war, it is seen that .heir supply has been inexhaustible.
 The retreat of the Russians was due n large measure to their shortage of ammunition. Dispatches told how the czar's men stood up under the Teuton lire to the last ditch and then fought with bayonets, only to be moved down

 The corps of helpers, working in re- lays from a volunteer list of 5000. make hundreds of gallons of tea fnd coffee every night at woolwich, cut ting up bread and cake enough for regiment, and when the men, 300 at a time, begin to swarm toward the gates the women are at hand, ready to iadie out something hot to drink from the long line of cans placed on milk carts, which can be wheeled in different di- rections. Every cart has it's route mapped out in advance, and an efficient woman commander stands on guard to issue directions and see that they are carried out. At o'clock the night shift men have all been fed and are gone, and tens of thousands of day shift men arrive at the arsenal to be- gin their work, but these have had breakfast at home and do not need at- tention until they are quitting. when the temptation to resort to the public houses is the strongest. The women clean out their milk cans and big urns and then take the train back to Lon- don. One of the most dNigent workers at the woolwieh arsenal canteen is the daughter of a distinguished general with the army in France, and many of the women are well known in society.
 Lady Lawrence and her committee are establishing such canteens at all the intuition factories and running them entirely through private sub scription and against the. opposition of the liquor interests.

There is only one thing that has kept us out of Mexico.
 IT is the fact that the American puhnc has had no adequate means of coming to a full realization Of what conditions in Mexico are.
 Even the press las remained un- awakened. The difficulty of non- official investigation in Mexico in prevailing circumstances is very great Some few of the newspapers of greatest resource. such as The Tribune have been able to get first hand reports from trusted represen- tatives. The revelations of the Catholic protest have made an inn pression wider and deeper than is superlicially apparent Here and there striking appeals. like that oT Anonyma, give ghastly glimpses or, the truth But all these glimpses have not been united in one terrify- ing panorama.
