ONLY TEN PER CENT OF
CONVERTS HAVE "STUCK"

Atlanta, Dec. 22-That only about
ten per cent of the converts of the
big revival held in Atlanta year ago
have stuck" to their religion, while
the other ninety per cent just natur-
ally evaporated, is substantially the
conclusion reached by Atlanta church
people after a careful canvass of the
net results for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning whether Atlanta's experience
would prove similar to those revival
swept cities in the east.
The general impression seems to
be after investigating the cases of
those who joined the church through
the influence Of the revival, that not
more than one in ten professed con-
verts derives any lasting effect upon
character and conduct.
Of course it is argued on the other
hand that the ten per cent who are
still in the stright and narrow path
abundantly justify the revival, and it
is pointed out that some of the worlds
greatest savers of souls were con-
verts by this method.

Population of United States Contin-
ues to Shift TO the Cities-U. S. Pop
uIation Now 102,017,312.

Washington, Dec. 22.-The popula-
ton of the United States continues to
shift to the cities, according to es-
Inmates announced today by the cen
sus bureau. The estimates, based on
the rate Of population increases from
1900 to 1910, disclosed that 400 per
cent of the country's inhabitants now
live in cities of more than 5000, as
against $50 per cent in 1910. The en-
tire population Of continental United
States for 1916 has already been esti-
mated at 1O2,O17,312. The total states,
territories and United States posses
sions is put at 112, 444 500.
Ten states have taken census since
the last federal census in 1910 and sew
en- show population increases. Kansas,
South Dakota and Wyoming decreased
from 1910 to 1915, the greatest reduc-
ton being in Wyoming, 20 per cent.
The least increase was in Iowa, with
a growth of but per cent. The great
est increase was 22.5 per cent in Flor
ida. In Florida, Iowa and Massachu-
sets the percentage of increase from
1905 to 1915 was greater than from
1900 to 1910, but in the other seven
states it was much higher from 1900
to 1910 than from 1905 TO 1915. In Kan
sas, North and South Dakota and Wy0-
ming the rate of growth from 1910 to
1910 was nearly double that from 1905
to 1915. In Iowa a decrease of 1882
was shown from 1900 to 1910 and an
increase of 148,O16 from 1905 to 1915.
In New Jersey, New York and Rhode
Island slight decreases were indicated
by the state returns of 1905 and 1915,
as compared with the increase from
1900 to 1910.
In the past six years the growth in
the white population was 100000
and the negro population about three
fourths of a million.

-erable-Must determine How to Safe
guard interests if War Continues.

washington, Dec. 22.-Officials and
diplomats here, analysing teh Presi-
dents note, say that the President,
in acting, was also considering what
would have to be the course of the
United States to conserve it's interests
as neutral if the war is continued.
Coupled with the presidents recent
declaration that the position of neu-
trails was becoming intolerable, they
attached much significance to the
statement in the note that his sugges-
ton comes from neutral wohse in
terests have been most seriously af-
fected by the war and whose concern
for its early conclusion arises out of
manifest necessity to determine
how best to safeguard those interests
if the war continues"

THE WAR PRIMER By National Geographic Society

RaVenna, the scene of a recent hombardment by Austrian aircraft, is the subject of today's war geography buIletinf issued by the National Geo graphic Society from its Washington headquarters, which says:--
 Forty miles east of Bologna, sev- enty miles south of Venice, and a hun dred miles southwest of the Austrian naval base of Pola, lies the ancient Italian city of Ravenna, which, with the possible exception of Rome, pes sesses more magnificent examples of eclesiastical architecture of the ByZan- tine period than any other city in the world.
 Tn art, in literature and in historic significance Ravenna is a treasure troVe for student and traveller. Its beginning is attributed to the Thes salians, but there is more tradition than fact in the accounts of the region under the jurisdiction of Rome nearly 200 years before the Christian era, It was here that Julius Caesar was accustomed to come for his confer ences with friends and political ad- vfsers from Rome during his ten years campaign in Gaul.
 '"The importance of the port which strongly resembled Venice in its early days, but which is now six miles from the Adriatic, dates from the time wher l Augustus Caesar designed it as the ! naval base of the 'teSle upper sea, its harbor being able to accommodate 25( ships at time. At that period the l marshy plain which now surrounds the tower at the confluence of the Montont and Romeo rivers, was little more thar a vast silt bed. The houses were built on piles, and at high tide the sea form. ed numerous lagons, the salt water SC effectively removing the danger of ma. larfa that the city soon acquired a rep. utation as a health resort, to which tht gladiators of Rome were sent for train. l ing.

CANNOT OVERLOOK TARIFF.

Just how much attention the tariff will get in the coming presidential campaign remains to be seen. It may for the time being be overshadowed by the question of preparedness but it is a matter nevertheless which cannot be overlooked. It is of vital importance to the country that the false position in which the Under wood bill is made to stand be un- masked.
 The fact that industries are rushed with business and labor employed at wages higher than ever before does not mean that such has been brought about by the democratic administra- tion. Far from 1t.
 It is well known what the situation was previous to the opening of the war Business was in slump and the country was facing a serious de- plotion of it's revenue because of the tariff slashing that had been done, Today optimism prevails but it is be- cause the war has temporarily made up for the situation which the free trade policy projected. Business is good but there are many lines of business which would be increased or built up provided there was legisla- ton that would encourage them and Insure them a chance to live after the European conflict is over. Business which is based upon the war is good today and gone tomorrow. It is as uncertain as the weather and tariff consideration cannot be neglected be- cause of 1t.
 This country does not want to be forced to meet federal taxation for ever and 1t does not want to go bach to the uncertainty created by the Un. derwood bill just previous to the war and yet that is certain unless there Is a readjustment of the tariff sucf IS the republican party has stood fol In the past and stands for today.

first line of French assailants. and were themselves enveloped.
 A furious hand-to-hand struggle enl sued; the Germans, seeing the desper- atlon Of their situation tried to escape rom the woods to the north; part of them succeeded, but more than 100, en- tirely surrounded, threw down fh&r arms and surrendered
 The search of the woods, then re- sumed, uncovered little companies of Germans hidden underground in all corners. Their resistance was prompt ly overcome by the use of hand greu- ades, and 60 more prisoners were taken from the underground shelters which, on inspection, were found to be marvels of field Qualifications. They ran from six to eight yards in depth, most or thems and some of them were dug to a depth of ten yards, with such supports that they were able to resist the largest and most powerful proJect1leS. Entrance and exit from these Subterranean forts were facfi- tated by the arrangement of inclined planes, down which the soldiers would run in case of danger. WindIasses had been provided to lower machine guns Curing the bombardment and to raise them quickly as soon as the shelliAg ceased.
 In the course of this action, a French soldier, separated from his comrades, found himself face to face with several Germans, Ht1o threw themselves upon him, dfsarTned him, and took him into one Of these deep caves. Five other French prisoners were bpought there to join him soon afterwards. Their captors offered them sausages and ham, and made a considerable show of treating them generously. While the French prisoners were dispatchinz tho lunch" six otter Germans precipftated themselves into the shelter, completely demoraized, crying ''Camarades, Cam arades.' The six French prisoners, to the consternation of their captors, i'm mediately constituted themselves the guardians of the twelve Germans and an hour later brought them back to the French lines.
 At o'clock in the evening the oper- ations were entirely terminated. the woods completely in the Eands of the French, whose losses were insfgnifi- cant, while everywhere in the wods lay erman corpses', and 160 prisoners of which four were officers and sever sUbaltern officers of the 101st Saxor regiment, of which the Emperor is the

of the barbarian forces from the north, transferred their court from the Eter- nal City to the Adriatic port, whicIB re- mained the seat of government for Italy not only during the few remain ing years of the Western empire, but throughout the ascendancy of the Greek emperors. Here the Byzantine viceroys or Exarchs for the peninsula mace their headquarters until the advent of the Lombards in the eighth century.
 Many of the most fascinating epi- sodes of history are associated with the name of RaYenna, such, for ex- ample, as the tragic story of Odoacer who Wrested the realm of Italy from Orestes in 476 and then waged bitter war against Theodoric the Ostrogoth for many years finally being shut up in Ravenna where he withstood a siege of three years. At length Odoacer
 capftulated with tce understanding that he and Theodoric should divide the kingdom equally between them To celebrate the compact a magnificent banquet was spread in famous lau- CTS feasted the OStrogoth with his own hand slew his royal rival.
 During the famous battle of Raven na i'll 15l2 the picturesque Gaston de Folk completely routed the Spaniards under Cardopa, but threw away his O"A1 1lIC lIlS or VlCIOTY, It was in this battle that a Captain Fabian, emulating the exploit of the legendary Swiss hero Winkelried, sec ing that his men could not break l through the wall of Spanish spears raised his long pike high over his head and brought it down crosswise with crushing force upon JIe oposing arms thus sacrificing his own life but mak- ing a small gap in the enemy's line 1 through which his own men rushed. Two names which shine in the gar land of Ravenna's renown are those
 of Italy's greatest poet and one of the four great epic writers of civilization Dante, and Lord Byron. It was il Ravenna that the founder of the mod.
 ern Italian language died in 1891, anC
 here this body is treasured in an urn
 beneath a square-domed tomb. Byron during his Italian sojourn lived in thi. city for two years, being attracted no
 merely by the famous Pineto (pine
 woods) five miles to the south, but by | the charms of the Countess Guiccoli
 Nor should it be forgotten that in tn, adjacent marshes Anita, the heroi
 wife of the Italian liberator Garibaldi
 died of fatigue during her flight iron 1 the French in 1S49."

RAILROAD rREsPAssINe,

No one is apt to stand up and claim that walking on railroad tracks is not dangerous. It might be claim ed, if one desired to encourage such trespassing, that it could, be done with more or less safety providing there was due care exercised upon the part of the trespasser to protect himself from harm, but that argu- ment nevertheless admits that rail- road property is 2 dangerous place to frequent and that the best way of avoiding that danger is to keep away from it.
 That this is a lesson Impossible for some people to learn is indicated by the statement which is made con- corning the number of lives lost each year from the failure of individuals to have a~proper regard for their own lives. During the year 1914 there were 5,471 persons, from among the small army who insist upon walking the railroad tracks even though 1t is forbidden, who lost their lives. That there has been some attention given to the warnings against such dan- ger, and to the fact that states have passed laws carrying penalty for such trespass in order to give pro- lection to those who were not in clined to protect themselves, is shown by the fact that in 1905 there were 53,193 persons killed while trespass- ing on railroad property
 This shows that if people keep off the tracks they are not going to be killed because of their own careless ness in that direction. The peril is so apparent that they ought not to re- quire the warning, but being given, together with the lessons which are to be drawn from the experience of others, it ought to be respected.

A srRoNGER NAVY.

While the naval committee of the house showed it's inclination to bol- ster up the first line of defense in certain much needed directions. it cannot be charged with having gone beyond the bounds of reason in It's recommendations for the naval in- crease during the next year. That the house considers that 1t did not go far enough in it's plans for addi- tiCnaI strength is indicated by the favorable action which it took upon the amendment to the bill which calls for 90 additional submarines, or a total of 50 in all, of which all but three will be of the coast defense type. The close vote shows that there is also a strong sentiment in behalf of more dreadnougfts, and it is more than probable had this effort been made separately without other additions being asked it would have received favorable action.
 The fact of the matter is that the weakness of our navy has been dis closed in such manner that it is unwise to attempt to strengthen 1t by driblets. It Is time to place it on a basis which will not only be able to take care of the interests of this country in case of trouble but which will offer one of the strongest argu- ments for the preservation of peace The republicans in congress show where they stand upon this question | of adequate national defense, and il is but a reasonable position which they have taken. It is dictated by the welfare of the country, the one thing by which such matter should l be determined, and while efforts are l being made to strengthen the navy by the increase in vessels, sight should not be lost of the fact that there ought to be provision for enough off. 1 nars and mon tn mon tI,o,,,

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.

When the county supervisor of Nassau county in New York state threatens to resign if a tuberculosis sanatorium is established at Sagamore Hill near the home of Theodore Roosevelt, he follows the line of req soning which so many others do with out stopping to consider the sanitary requirementsRt such an institution He considers that it would endanger the fife of the ex-president to have such hospital near his home but he has no objection to it's location most any, where else despite the fact, if his ideas were correct, it would be peril ous to other people. In fact he doesn't seem to care what might happen to the other residents of Sagamore Hill and vicinity.
 There are instances where neigh borhoods are opposed to the location of such a sanatorium in their local- ity because of the publicity which 1t brings to them, but such would hard ly cause opposition on the part of Colonel Roosevelt. In this case, how ever, the. county supervisor does not appear to understand that a sanato- rum is not place for the propoga- tion of disease germs but that it is surrounded with all the safeguards for the prevention of just what this overzealous public official fears.
 If Sagamore Hill has been decided upon as possessing advantages for those seeking to escape from the clutches of the white plague there | ought to be no disposition to stand in the way of giving them the benefit of the locality, and it would require but little investigation to show that l the health of the community will in no way be endangered. One con- sumptive walking the. streets without restraint as to his conduct is a greater menace than a hospital full of care | fully guarded patients.
