In IBM, fust AO years after the ergeu iiatioa of the -Methediet Episcopal ehurch, the church was divided and the Methodist Episcopal ehurch, south, was organised.

Day 7(2 I'NDERTAklNG OLE S PEG ALT Y lH0ES Night 14(2 Present Demand for Replenishment of Churches With Mi sen lint Virtaea. (Editorial in Century.) In the shiftina conditions of modern life thoughtful minds are pondering the nest way ox auaptina cnurcn macninerj to new problems. One of the festures of the present awakening of religious in terest is the demand for a replenishment of the churches with the masculine vir tues. The demand is not premature. The oentui Chows that in most of the denominations the women outnumber the men nearly two to one. The Chriet ian (Scientists, naturally enough, lead off with the largest percentage of wo men; in that communion the "mother" element misht be expected to prevail. The highest percentage of men is found In some of the Lutheran divisions which may be explained in part by the fact that all the children, male and fe male, are required to learn the cate rhiem and he confirmed; but it is doubt ful whether the proportion of adult males In actual service of the church ia larger among the Lutheran than among the ether eeeta. Various sxplanations of ttiis dispro portion of sex era offered. It is some time intimated that the types of relig ion presented by the churches are mors adapted te the feminine than to the masculine mind; but If that were true it would still be questionable whether it was a cause or a consequence. Home light ia thrown upon the queetton by the fact tnat tne enure h n not tne only field of activity in which we rind a large preponderance of women. Public edu cation ia largely in the hands of wo men; they are giving to the fine arte far more attention than men, and among our philanthropic workers they are in a heavy majority. The spiritual side of civilisation seems to be committed quite lsrgely to their care. The res son is thst the men are so much en grossed in the development of the mate rial side ef civilisation that they find lit tle time for these higher pursuits. The eenssquewee oa ttiii neglect ay men of the superior interests of their lives we have beea reaping tne appaung infideli ties and dishonesties which have recent ly been ancovered. It is true that the men have been dropping out of the churches aad losing fheir interest In re ligious matters, aad It does not look though this were working well. In the quarters where this tendency his been most shown there he clearly beea a marked decrease In mseeuline morality. It besrina to be questionable whether sound rhsrsrter Is likely to be sustained apart from the spiritual ideal.

Unri made nntn kiad in His iniajie. msle snd female; ins feminine quslities represent one side of the divtnitv thst is in us sod tas masrume qualities snother; snd the complete revelation requires both. A church which is two-thirds women can not fully represent thi divine life; It can not make a true impression of the great realties of religion upon the com munity in which it stands. There can I be no doubt that the church has been greatly cafeebled by thin withdrawal ef a large number of men from active par ticipation in its life. It is the diarorery of this fact that has swskened the widespread interest now finding expreMion in the brother hood, springing into vigorous life in sll the Oinstisn donominstions.

Ia a message, sooompanied by a detailed report from the war department, President Tail to usy seat to Congres information re garding the necessity for immediately beginning the fortifioatioa of the Pan ama easel in order to have it completed by 1915, the date set for finishing ths oonst ruction of the canal. The reports accompanying the message do not giv the exact locations of the proposed for tifications, but it is explained that this cannot be furnished until information has been obtained regarding the Mststu and availability of certain parcels of land situated along the route of the canal." The armament for the proposed forti flestinns is enumerated as follows: Ten 14 inch rifle, 12 inch rifles and 26 12 iiuh mortars. The est is estimated in excess of tU.OuO.OtiO. Ths report states that the bosrd has examined the ground at the terminal of the canal and of territory in the neighborhood on the canal's counts with a view of selecting tha best sites for the big gun.

This morning st 10JW o'clock the jury ia the J. K. K Carraway oass brought in their vsrdict finding him not guilty of embeulement, but guilty of both false eatriea and mis appropriation of tbe funds of ths bank. The jury prayed tha court to give the defsadaat all the mercy in its power. Oounarl for Carraway at once moved to set aside the verdict, which was de nied. Than a motion for a new trial was made, and this was denied also. Judge Connor then stated that be was disposed to take the suggestion of the jury and that he would give tarrsway tbe minimum aeutenee of five years in the Atlanta penitentiary. An appeal was spoken or and bond fixed at 110,000. but this waa dropped and Carraway left for Raleigh this even ing charge of Deputy Marshal It Vt . Ward. The eaaes of Htcvcna and Taylor, charged as accessories, were continued, and their bond reduced to I i.000 each. Tbe general Impression that these caeca will never be called. POSTAL WILL UREASE PAT OF ITS OPERATORS NATURE Of PRIVILEGE Mileage Tickets Inst Be Accepted f Itb Lawful allies Attached. Washington, April 30. In au order just issued by the interstate commerce commission, in which the commission by unanimous aotion upholds tbe ontuion of Commissioner James S. Berlin in the of Bernard Eschnar vereu the Pennsyrvenie Railroad company et li the principle of the mileage ticket ex change regulstion now In affect on tbe railroads in the southeast is upheld. The order is of great importance to rail roads iaruing interchangeable mileage tickets snd to purchssers of such tick ets. In this order the commission says: "The right to use exchsnge orders and mileage tickets is in the nature of a pririhge voluntarily accorded by car riers tinder their tariffa. and mint be scoepted ly those who use such special fares with sll lawful and nondiacrim instory limitations that may he attached to tiiem." Three important points made bv the cnmniineion sre that the issuance of mileage tickets is in no sense com puleory. but is permiKsible snd vohitary on the part of the carrier, that purchas ers o4 mileage tickets msr not lawfully he con.tiluted into a Hpecial class, but must come under the general law com mon to all passengers, and that mir- chaer. of mileage tickets are bound by the lawful contract feature of the form of reduced rate transportation. The commission goes so far as to hold that purchasers of special reduced rate transportation, such ns mileage tickets, have no legal right to demand the same privileges and advantages that are ac corded to a pastenircr who has paid the regular fare at a higher rate. The car riers hsre never gone lo thin extent, but while making th mileage ticket regu lation for their protection, have afforded the same privileges and advantages to the purchasers of mileage tickets as are given to purchasers of other forms of tra n a porta t kmi . This order ol the commission suports the views of state railroad comm'SMons. ! legislatures aihI other tribunals in the aoiitii'-u.t to uhicli the mileage tf'k'-t exchange rep-iilstion has been submitted.
