mon prayer used in Episcopal churches
One of these, at work for the last sly
wears, will recommend, it is understood
a wholly new list of Bible selections
to be read at public worship Thd
other will urge a general revision OF
the entire book. The last revision was
adopted in 1892, when the late Revl
Or. William r. Huntington, Of New
York, was chairman of the commission
New editions Of the Prayer book were
issued at a cost of $500. 600, and the late

EPISCOPAL AND PRESBYTERIAN
PENSION PLANS ARE PUSHED

Rapid progress is making by both
Episcopal and Presbyterian committees
I'M the task of accommodating funds to
pension their ministers. Within the
last three years Presbyterians have Sc
cured 100000. and within the last
three months Episcopalians have got to-
gether SLOOO,OOO. The first named seek
$4,000. 600, and the last named IS 900
600. In principal cities luncheOns Of
bankers and well to do business men
are held almost daily. and prominent
men are taking places upon commit
tees. The country is divided into dis
tricts, and pressure without let up is
being exerted upon people OF means.
Most Of these religious bodies have
drafted into their service actuaries
from the life companies, and have
based their pensions upon scientific
tables Episcopal committees claim to
have gone fartherest in this scientific
way than others, but Presbyterians
name famous actuaries and put up the
same claims. The Presbyterians plan,
under direction of Rev. DR. W II. Foullz
seems 10 be to take up the case Of each
minister separately. Conditions of
present congregation is asked to create
fund to produce a pension. When con-
gregatiOns are financially unable, they
are assisted from outside.
The total sum asked from Christian
people. Protestant only, is $50, 600, 900,
but it is said that $50. OOO.0 is likely
to be realized. Besides those named,
Methodists are making vigorous cam
paigns 9th south and north. and Bap-
lists viii take up such plans immedi-
ately they have completed a large re-
lief fund. The Presbyterian fund now
reaches Sf.5O0,00O. or almost half the
sum sought.

RUSSIAN AND SERBIAN
PRISONERS NOT VALUABLE
AS FARM LAB0RERS
(Ry Associated Pressl


Vienna, March 9.-Austrian and
Hungarian landowners and farmers
are not particularly impressed with
the value of Russian and Serbian
prisoners of war as farm laborers.
Accounts from all sides generally
support the old say. you can lead
a horse to water, but you cannot
make him drink. :"
On the whole, the prisoner OF war
as a farm hand seems to have been
a failure This is true for other reas-
ons then that the prisoners have a
natural aversion to work for their
enemies. One of the great handicaps
has been that the Russian and Serb
farmers who were selected to work
on the Austrian and Hungarian
farms, were for the greater part un-
trained in the rather intensive farm
ing methods employed in the dual
monarchy. Though the men were
shown how TO go about their work,

the reason why II had to be done a

work Patriotic feelings appear to
have been an active deterrent for
