Carlton.

Today were dedicated the tower and
chime of bells at the Church Of the
Epiphany as a memorial to Rev. DR..
Randolph H. McKim, who for thirty
two years was rector there. The cere-
monies will not only be a tribute to
man who gave the better part Of his
life to the Christian ministry. and the
major part Of that period to service
at the National Capital, but they will
strengthen the suggestion that memo
rails to those who have passed after
careers of great usefulness may well
take the form Of such a structure.
The bells of Epiphany have been
ringing now for several months in
advance of the formal dedication, and
they have proved an inspiration to all
who have heard them. A city With
out chimes is as though it were voice
less. There are noises in plenty, it is
true, but the tones Of q carlton are,
after all, the expression Of the soul of
the community.
There is on foot movement for the
commemorate the war heroes and the
sacrifices Of the nation. It Is hoped
to raise by national popular subscrip-
ton a fund sufficient to permit the
construction of tower that will in
itself be thing Of beauty. containing
the best chimes the bell foundries Of
this country can produce. The hope
is that this plan will not languish like
many others inaugurated In the en-
thusiasm Of the war and Of the peace,
but that it will be pressed to eventual
and early conclusion.
The McKim chimes at Epiphany
ring daily at stated times. and their
notes are always heard with delight
by those within their range. Groups
pause in the streets to listen, and it
is as though a benison were being
sounded, call to peace and quiet and
contemplation for few moments in
the rush Of daily affairs.

Election Surprises.

Some election surprises are limited
at by both sides. Appearances here
and there are a little deceptive, it is
stated. Let the democrats watch out.
Let the republicans beware. Some
thing startling will be doing on the
7th instant.
The hints are so vague they would
command no attention except that
conditions in the country are so dis
turbed the most experienced politicians
are at heart in a state Of apprehension.
The confidence expressed-and there
is the usual amount Of it's not taken
seriously. Those expressing it are per-
forming a sort of official duty. They
must say something. and cannot af-
ford tone of uncertainty or gloom.
In 1916 the republicans suffered a
considerable surprise. That such
strongholds of theirs as Ohio. Kansas
and California would be carried by the
democrats was laughed at as a pre-.
diction.
And yet that very thing happened.
Ohio gave Mr.. Wilson ninety thousand
majority, Kansas a majority of many
thousands, while California, though
electing the republican state ticket
and Hiram johnson to the Senate by
quarter Of a million majority, gave
her electoral vote to the democratic
national ticket by majority Of sew
eral thousand.
Great election surprises, then, can
take place even in times much less
unsettled than the present. How deep
ly unsettled these times are we all
know. Here democratic candidate
for high office is expecting success
from the support Of disaffected repub-
licans. while there a republican candi-
date is relying on the support Of dis
affected democrats to pull him through.

called, '"Tige" and made one OF those
noises that pass for a feminine
whistle, whereupon a fuzzy little dog
came prancing up. The elderly one
explained that she would like very
much to hold her pet in her arms. as
she was afraid he would catch cold.
The net result was that the girl STU

To Corner the Ape Market.

1t will interest and displease Mr..
Bryan and shock the organized anti
vivisectionists to learn of the plans of
the Pasteur Institute of Paris to es-
tablish an African reservation for the
breeding Of anthropoid apes. At the
same time a Chicago syndicate has
been formed to corner the chimpanzee
market and control the price.
Without touching the borders of
the controversy over evolution and
sedulously avoiding that which RACES
about vivisection, 1t may be stated
that certain species like the chimpanzee
are in danger OF extinction. and the
activities Of the Pasteur Institute and
the Chicago syndicate have the same
purpose. though the former is mo-
tivated by scientific and the latter by
mercenary ideas. The institute wants
the anthropodial animal for experi-
mental purposes and the demand Is
growing for numbers of apes for the
application of the Veronoff system of
grating.
Today's prices in Paris for suitable
specimens average $3.50. with an up
ward tendency as the supply is threat
ened by African native methods which
diminish it by the killing of the par
ents to capture the young. Chicago
purposes .s to- to corner onn the market and

competition in the jungles of Africa.

IAStallAeDt No. 2.
In the following letters. all but one
written to his brother George. Mr..
dent Wilson and his cabinet, in ses-
sion during some OF the most critical
days In American history:
Washington. February 25, 1917.
On Friday we had one Of the most
animated sessions Of the cabinet that
suppose has ever been held under
this or any other President. 1t all
arose out of a very innocent question
Of mine as to whether it was true
that the wives Of American consuls
on leaving Germany had bsen stripped
naked, given an acid bath to detect
writing on their flesh. and subjected
to other indignities. Lansing an
swered that it was true. Then !
asked Houston about the bread riots
in New York, as to whether there
was shortage Of food because Of car
shortage due to vessels not going out
with exports.
This led to a discussion Of the great
problem which we all had been afraid
to raise: Why shouldn't we send our
ships out with guns or conveys?
Daniels said we must not convoy
that would be dangerous. (Think Of
q Secretary of the Navy talking Of
dangerD The President said that
the country was not willing that we

that I got no such sentiment out Of
the country. but II the country knew
that our consuls' wives had been
treated so outrageously that there
would be no question rs to the senti-
ment. This the President took as a
suggestion that we should work up \
propaganda Of hatred against Ger
many. OF course, said had no such
idea. but that felt that in a democ-
racy the people were entitled to know
the facts.
McAdoo, Houston and Redfeld join
ed me. The President turned on them
bitterly, especially on McAdoo. and
reproached all of US with appealing
to the spirit of the code duello. We
couldn't get the idea out of his head
that We were bent on pushing the
country into war. Houston talked Of
resigning after tho meeting. McAdoo

to smooth them down by recalling
our past experiences with the Presi-
dent. We have had to push. and push.

Tariff Commission. He comes out
right, but he Is slower than q glacier:
and things are mighty disagreeable
whenever anything has to be done.
Now he Is being abused by the re-
publicans for being slow. and this
will probably help a bit. though it
may make him more obstinate. He
wants no extra session, and the re-
publicans fear that he will submit to
anything in the way Of indignity or
national humiliation without getting

extra session. The President believes.

Excitement Of
Basketball Game
Leaves Mind Blank

Emporia, Kan, Feb. 1S.-Ex-
element during a basketball
game Tuesday night caused H. F
Armitage, coach Of the Emporia
high school, to lose his memory,
it became known today.
Armitage cannot remember who
won the game or when 1t was
played. He recognizes friends, but
his mind is a blank with regard
to past events.
Friends said Armitage once told
them that several years ago he
was injured in a football game
and for a long time could remem-
ber nothing.
