Montgomery, July 11.-(Special) Speaker Merritt is not satisfied with the progress made by the house in the busi- ness coming before it. During the ses- sion this morning, when a motion had just been made to adjourn over until next Tuesday morning, he suggested that the committees get together and pre- pare reports on measures now in their hands.
 There have been about 150 bills intro duced since Tuesday morning. he said,
 and only seven or eight have been re-
 ported out by the committees"
 A senate resolution to the effect that
 when the senate and house adjourn for
 the day it be until il o'clock in the
 morning of Tuesday, July 15. There was objection to this, and Speaker Merritt suggested that if the house adjourned over to Tuesday, the members would go home and the committees therefore could not be called together until they returned | to Montgomery
 l The senate resolution was amended to 1 provide for adjournment until o'clock Monday afternoon.
 After the adoption of the resolution, several chairmen called meetings of their committees for the afternoon and it is expected that when the house reconvenes | Monday a large number of bills will be
 reported out.

ultur ys. Culture

From Humane Culture-And the Ger
 man Kind," by Henry van Dyke, in the Scribner
 Everybody knows that there is diff ference in meaning between the German word kulture and the word culture as it is commonly used in English and in French. The object of this paper is to trace little more clearly the nature and effects of this difference. The fact that the German word is spelled with 'll' and the English with "c" is of no great significance. It is one of those orthographical accidents which may occur even in the best regu- lated languages.
 The fact that both words come from the same Latin root proves nothing in regard l to their present connotation. In the wear and tear of usage, words from the same root often come to be not only different, but even positively opposed in their sig nificance Children of the same family
 may be not merely unlike but also ac-
 lively hostile one to another, as in the
 celebrated case of Cain and Abel. 1 It seems to me that this is what hap
 pened to these two words They came to ] stand for two ideas contrary that a l conflict between them was almost in- 1 evitabe. It was because of this con trarety, much less to admire, the other l peoples of the world. It was for the
 same reason that these other peoples. the English, the French. the Italians, the
 Americans while admiring some German
 products, as fX example potash fertil-
 izers, cutlery, Dresden china and beer I found themselves unable to love Ger
 many as a nation, and absolutely unwill- ing to submit to the imposition of her
 Kultur upon the world at the point Of
 the sword in 1914.
 This, in effect, is what Germany de- sired resolved and attempted to achieve, doubtless with sincere purpose. and un- qrestionaby by dishonest and lawless means You may read the sincerity of
 the purpose in the verses of the pious poet, Emanuel Geibel:
 | "Und es mag am deutschen Wesen Einmal noch die Welt genesen."

Progress Of House Too Slow
 70 Suit Speaker Merritt

bama cannot be very large and the state
 pension fund is increasing each year.
 It is claimed by some of the members
 of the legislature that the pension fund
 is now large enough to justify the state
 in putting all of the old veterans on the
 roll and a resolution providing for that
 vas offered in the house of representa-
 tives this morning.
 The resolution read in the house was
 adopted by the camp at Roanoke, the
 the purpose of it being that in view of
 the fact that only about 8 per cent of
 the men in the confederate armies are
 now living and that they are passing
 over the river" at the rate of about F per cent a year, while the pension fund is increasing annually, all of the old vet
 erans should be put on the pension rolls for the remainder of their lives. There has been great deal of com plaint from the old soldiers in recent years over the administration of the pen
 sion department. They claim that for some years past they have not been re- ceiving the full amount allotted to them | by the legislature; that during several years they received only a small portion of the quarterly payment due on July 1, and in some years none at all, thus cut ting down their annual allowance from s1O0 to about $S5 and some years to s75. | They claim that this does an injustice l to them; that money appropriated ana | set aside for the pension fund has been transferred to the general fund and used 1 for other state expenses.
 Another ground of complaint sometimes 1 heard is that checks mailed in payment l of quarterly installnents sometimes are returned to the treasury because of in- ability to deliver it to the person aA dressed. It is said that in some instances checks are mailed to persons long since deceased, and that when these checks are returned to the treasury they are not | credited back to the pension fund an allotted among the living veterans, as | they contend it should be.
 | It is claimed that if these returned 1 checks were turned back into the pen sions fund and distributed equally among | the surviving veterans, it would be suf- | ficient to make up the deficit usually occurring in the July installment. | The resolution introduced today at the request of the Roanoke camp was re- l ferred to the pensions and soldiers home committee.

the world had for me, other than my
husband. I came back to a realiza-
ton Of what had happened only after
an uneasy dream that I was cropping
for diamonds and emeralds and ru-
bies and sapphires which were sprin-
killed. widely on the ocean floor!
I came so suddenly to a knowledge
of what had really happened that
