The Circuit Rider In japan.

We are in the upper room of the neat
Japanese home. We have fallen fiat on
our faces and exchanged greetings in
the deliberate and considerable manner
of the east Beside me the captain
sits on his heels, a feat which admire
the more after trying it for ever so
brief time. In the middle of the clean
mat floor a small stand supports an
ugly kerosene lamp, the one Earring
note in that dainty home. Behind the
stand sits the Japanese pastor, and in
front of it sits the church treasurer,
both on the floor. In recognition of my
foreign training am allowed to sit
on the window sill, silk cushion hav-
ing been placed there for the purpose
by the good housewife, who, after see
ing every one comfortably settled, had
bowed to each in turn, kneeling at
distance and almost touching her fore
head to the floor, and had withdrawn
with the cheerful resignation of the
Japanese wife.-C Christian Herald.

When. Airmsn Fly High.

Aviators have cold time OF it when
they mount high into the air. On the
hottest day in summer flying man
may be in the arctic regions in ten min
utes by mounting to height Of 10000
feet, just as the climber may pass
through all the zones of climate by
climbing kilimanjaro, that giant peak
which rises above the snow line from
the equator. He commences with the
tropical jungle and ends amid eternal
snow. The temperature is invariably
low at 10000 feet and over, whether at
the tropics or the poles, and it is quite
likely to be lowest at the equator. In
fact, there is little variation of temper
allure in these upper reaches Of the at
mosphere It is much the same in sum-
mer as winter, except for the difference
which a high wind makes. Even in
the depth Of hot summer the airman
will encounter 40 degrees Of frost at
10000 feet, and at twice that altitude
100 degrees of frost-the temperature
Of the south pole-is usual enough.

cARRANZA DENIES CHARGES
BIames Former Ambassador Wilson as
Party to Intrigue.

WASHINGTON, D. G. - At the in
stance of General Carranza, Gerzayn
Ugarte, his private secretary, who ar
rived here, will issue a statement from
the Mexican president not only deny
ing the recent charges of Senator
Knox of Pennsylvania that Carranza
following the overthrow of Madero,
was ready to recognize Huerta, but
charging that Senator Knox, then sec
rotary of state in the Taft cabinet,
was misled on this subject by tele-
gram sent to the state department by
Consul General Holland at the in
stance and under the pressure of Hen
ry Lane Wilson, then ambassador TO
Mexico.
Carranza refers to this act on the
part of Ambassador Wilson as "un-
worthy" and as part of an intrigue"
to which MI. Wilson was party, the
acalmness'' of President Taft in "ab-
staining from extending recognition
To Huerta in the closing days of his
administration and to "the rectitude
and Judgment" of President Wilson in
dealing with the problem later.

Euturist JUDGMENTS.

IT is rather regrettable that people
are so much concerned, in matters OF
art, over the agreement of their Judg-
ments with the judgments of the wise
men of the future. 1t is really some
thing of such very small Importance.
The proper way to relate oneself to
pictures is just to look at them
often, if one is interested, occasionally
if one is not.-The New Republic.

US. TOPAY FOR
WAR AS FOUGHT
Increased Taxation Will Meet
a Large Part of the
Expenses
BY Associated Press

Washington, April 8. - About ST.
750,000,000 or one-half the $S,500,-
100000 asked for army and navy pur-
poses within a year will be raised by
taxation and the balance by sale of
bonds, House and Senate leaders had
virtually decided to-day. 1t is pro-
posed that most revenue should come
from increased taxes on incomes, in
heritances and excess profits and that
an issue of 31a per cent. bonds be au-
thorized for $4,000, 900, 600, of which
$4,000, 100000 would be invested in
war bonds of the entente nations and
$4,000, 100000 would cover the bal
ance of the war expenses not met by
taxation. All of the two billion might
not be needed within the year, accord
ing to advance estimates.
Members of the House Ways and
Means Committee to-day discussed
details of the finance proposals, and
there was some talk of pressing imme-
diately only for the three billion dol
lar-bond issue for the entente loan,
allowing the two billion issue for army
and navy expenses to await more de-
liberate legislative action Indications
were that the bond issue would have
little effective opposition in either
house, although the problems of tax
alton for the war are likely to prove
more difficult.

CONGRESS TO PUSH
WAR LEGISLATION
Some Opposition Expected to
Crop Out Against Army
Bills

Washington, April 9. - Early action
on the administration war Legislative
program was forecast upon the as
sembling of Congress to-day.
Chief among these are measures to
authorize issuance of bonds for bill
lions Sof dollars and for raising a big
army. Opposition to both measures is
looked for, but is not expected to SER
lously threaten their passage.
On the House side, Democratic
members of the Ways and Means Com
mlttee were preparing to introduce
either to-day or tomorrow the reso-
luton for a bond issue and the mill
tary committee heard representatives
OF the War Department explain its
plan for raising an army. The House
also is expected to agree promptly to
a Senate amendment to the general
deficiency bill giving the President an
emergency war fund of 500, 0,000,000.
The Senate was expected to begin
consideration to-day of the army bill
carrying S270, ,0G0, 900 which was pass
ed by the House at the last session,
other measures which probably will
be taken up in their order are the
military academy and the sundry SER
vice bills, both of which have already
passed the House.
In addition, other measures whicf
will be ready for consideration during
the week include the espionage bill
and amendments to strengthen the
shipping law and the Federal Reserve
act.

ARMY VETERAN
WOULD JOIN UNION BLUE

Little Rock. Ark, April 9.-An-
other gratifying example of loyalty
was demonstrated at the United
States navy recruiting office, Little
Rock, Ark, when J. l.. Leigh, 1911
West Second street, applied for en-
listment in the United States navy
Mr.. Leigh requested that he be en-
listed at once and sent to the largest
battleship afloat for service on that
vessel, and he was greatly disappoint-
ed when informed by the recruiting
officer that he exceeded the required
age limit by forty some odd years,
he being siXty-nine years of age.
Mr.. Leigh lis warrior of experience,
having enlisted in the Confederate
army at the age of thirteen and hav-
ing served for four years, which end
ed in April. 1865, under General Lee,
at AppomattoX.
1t is most gratifying, in these times
of need. to find such loyal spirit in the
Boys of 1851" and such an example
as shown by our worthy veteran, Mr.
Leigh, will no doubt find a like re-
sponse by the Boys of 1917"
