Galleries Crowded

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-Stand-
ing in the chamber of the house
of representatives. with the full
membership of the senate and house
about him and with galleries crowd
ed with admirers, General John
Pershing received today the formal
thanks of congress for the services
he and the officers and men he COM
manded in France rendered during
the great war. To few Americans
has it fallen to be thus honored;
to few soldiers of any nation has
been given to hear leaders chosen of
the people speak such high praises
of their services for that people as
General Pershing heard today. There
was an air of solemnity about the
scene more eloquent than words to
tell it's full meaning.
Senator Cummins, as president pro
tempore of the senate. sat with
Speaker Gillett, and when General
Pershing had been escorted to the
floor before the speakers desk, fac
ing a great American flag draped
on the wall, it was Senator Cummins
who extended the first greeting.
q General Pershing," he said, cit is
my high privilege to extend to you
the sincere and cordial greeting Of
the senate of the United States. The
message L have the honor to bear
is not greeting alone, but an ear
rest welcome and hearty congratula-
lions upon your safe and victorious
return to your native land. Nor is
deep appreciation of the tremendous
task you have so wonderfully and
worthiIy accomplished. You were
called on to shoulder the immeasur-
able responsibility of commanding
the greatest body Of soldiers who
ever marched under the American
flag, and you led this superb, in
vincible host of our brightest, best
and bravest boys to the very sum-
nit of military fame and national
glory. While our tears are flowing
and our hearts are breaking, as we
solemnly remember the tens of
thousands who sailed away with
spirit SO sresolute and courage SO per-
feet, and who will return neyermore
until God calls us all on His judg-,
ment day, we receive with unbound
ed joy and undying gratitude those
who have passed unframed through
the perils of the cruelest war in the
history of the world.

DISSOLUTION ORDER 4 -.
-, WITHDRAWN IN MACON

81
MACON, Ga, Sept. ia truce
has been declared in the war" be-
tween the Macon civil service COM
mission and the firemen and police
men. Following the refusal of city
council to indorse the action Of the
commission in ordering the dissolu-
ton of the unions of the firemen
and policemen, the commission has
recalled the dissolution order and
adopted new policy, promising to
handle the matter later under an ar
rangement that will put the depart
ments on a basis satisfactory to all
Macon citizens.
The commission has issued the following
statement:
1.-THE civil service commission Of Macon
on Monday passed a resolution that no per-
son who is a member of any union which
Is affiliated with any city, state or national
organizat ton, shall be eligible to become or
remain an officer of either police or fire
departments of the city of Macon.
cit was the intention of the civil serv-
ice commission to declare itself against a
policemen's or firemen's union, which might
be affiliated with any city, state or national
organiza ton.
1.-The civil service commission, having
passed that resolution on Monday and hay
ing rescinded it on Wednesday, this revoca-
ton being due to the misconstruction that
was placed on the resolution and due also
to the fact that when the civil service COM
mission passed the above resolution it was
wifi inf Of bou ind
by the mayor and council.
1.-THE civil service commission hereby an
nounces the policy and intent to handle the
subject at later date, and make arrange
ments with the police and firemen which
will put them on a basis satisfactory to
all the people of Macon. That we pledge
ourselves to do.''
Warren McWilliams, chief of po-
lice of Macon for a day, left the city
on the first train he could catch fol-
lowing his resignation, it has been
learned. Jack" Thomas, information
al organizer for the textile union,
also lost no time in getting out Of
the city, when he was released from
Jail following the settlement of the
strike of mill workers and told to
get out of Macon and never come
back. Sullivan, the former captain in
the fire department, who was so
active in organizing everything from
grass cutters to textile workers, has
decided to take rest, on the advice
Of his physicians, he says, but he
was also given to understand that
he must cease his activities when
he was released on a small bond.
Matin Thompson, the new chief of
police, assues the people of Macon
that the policemen will be on the
JOB in the future.

Telegram to Washington
City Government Read to
Senate Committed Urges
Justice and Generosity

WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.-Presi-
from Dunsmuir, California, and re-
ceived today by the local city, gov
eminent, said that organization of
the police forces of the country for
the purpose of bringing pressure
against the public should not be
"countenanced or permitted"
The telegram was read today be-
fore the senate committee consider
ing the resolution. by Senator Myers,
Democrat, Montana, to shut off the
pay of all members of the Washing
ton police force as long as they re-
main members of the recently organ
lied union.
The presidents telegram follows:
hope that you understood my
brief telegram of the other day.
L am quite willing that you
should tell the senate committee
that my position in my CONVEX
sations with you was exactly the
same as I have expressed recent
ly in speeches here in the west
and, of course, I am desirous as
you are of dealing with the po-
lice force in the most just and
generous way, but that 1 think
that any association of the po-
lice force of the capital city or
of amy great city whose object
is to bring pressure upon the
public or the community such as
will endanger the public peace
or ernbarrass the maintenance of
order should in no case be coun-
tenanced or permitted.

CELESTIAL TEMPLE
 Is NOW NEGLECTED

The Temple of Heaven in Peking is a Chinese temple without idols. a tenn pie sacred to the use of Chinese en- pefors; and finally, a temple that is not one building. but a park several miles Tn area, with wonderful pagodaS and altars scattered among it's groves.
 The Temple of Heaven has been for centuries as it is now There is q red tiled wall lncloSing a grove. and within. yellow tiled wall inclosing another grove, with blue-roofed temples in un- expected places. In the most secluded spot IS the Altar of Heaven, the tenn ple's holy of holies.
 The Altar of Heaven is series of broad terraces and steps of white mar Die, leading to circular platform of marble. On this elevated platform. un- der the open sky, the emperors of the old Chinese empire knelt twice a. year to offer sacrifices to the spirit of heaven. On lower steps of the altar knelt the courtiers, while the emperor went through traditional rites and of- fered prayers and rolls of costly silks
 ThIs Altar of Heaven is said by the Chinese to be the centre of the earth In proof of this the sightseer is today allowed to stand on top of the altar place so long reserved for emperors only, and tap the marble so that he may note the hollowness of the eartf below.
 Since the last living representative Of the dragon prayed for prosperity al the Altar of Heaven the temple has become neglected and moss grown A president of China offered to sacrifice for the people at the emperor's altar put the spirit of old China was strong CT than he calculated The Altar o1 Heaven is still intended.
