That aa a precedent to participation In maneuvers, the statea and territorlea require a sufficient physical ex amination for entrance Into their organ ized militia.

Inspections of the several militia organlza tlona, the report says, were begun on April 23, 1903, and fcomplcted about the 1st of July. The total number of the organized militia, including officers of every rank and graue, was ascertained to be 116.542. Regarding the dependable strength nf the militia in time of national peril, the ad jutant general atatea that "although the obligation of officers and men of the militia' to reapond promptly to a sudden call of the president haa been on the atatute booka more than 100 years, and of the organized mlliya or . national guard for .nearly forty, and the neglect to ao . respond , to punish able by such penalties a a court-martial may dlreof, experience has shown that hls obligation 14 a' theory rather than A' fact. Without golhg further. VacX than the late war with Spain, Mhe proportion of the membership of mllltli organizations which have actually responded to aileti calls of the president has borne a very small proportion to those actually borne on the company rolls. Eliminating the men unlit for military Jervtce and those unable to go to the front for logical reaaona. the reports show that only about thirty of the original company la a fair eatimate of the number of men In each company who ' Were Anally received Into the aervlce of the United Statea. The adjutant general comments at length on the opposition developed In some quar tera to the militia law, which he airya is lesa on the whole than war anticipated. Heaaya,lt ia true that certain radical lead era of the labor unions! regard the militia as a, menace tp thehvpurpoars, although it la doubtful, he adds.

Fowler then -moved that $100,000 . of the amount be set aside as a fund for foreign mission buildings,, but he wua ruled out of order and the committee proceeded to ap propriate sums to the standing funds. The moneys set aside were: Incidental fund of the society ino.ono Contingent fund,- 60,000 Salaries of missionary bishops and secretaries , 34.000 Office- expenses ,. 18,000 Publication and missionary Informa tion fund 35,000 Nearly the entire morning was taken up In an attempt to make the publication fund 140,000 with tS.OOO of this set aside exclu sively fo Sunday schools.

I ask that these Sunday schools which' give one-third of the mission fund and are clamoring for these -booka have their desire." The opposMlon to this Increase held that with It and the other smaller increases al ready made, one-fifth of the Increased funds had already been nsed without any increase to the mission fields and with the building 'fund asked for by llishop Fowler, would wipe out the increase entirely. Bishop Mallalleu said that the church al ready had the grandest Sunday school lit erature of any organization and that lie thought that the committee rhould wait until It saw If (here waa not some more pressing fieed for the money. Those in favor bf the' advahce showed that money In' excess of last year's appropriations had been spent, making the total used only $80 lesa than the proposed appropriations.

The debate on Bishop Fowler'- motion that $75,000 be set aside as a fund for foreign mission build ings Waa continued. Bishop .McCabe ob jected to this before the apportionment of the mission fund. General Kusllng of New York moved that the per cent be made 42 and 58 for home and foreign missions. This motion was laid oh the table after which Dr. A. K. Sanford fhoved the per cent be 43 and 67. Bishop Merrill objected on the ground that the committee should first specify the amount to be devoted to other work and also because the- various foreign missions must ' be dealt with separately. Dr. A.-jB. Leonard thought the proposed per cent waa entirely unjust. The twentieth century movement raised $20,000,00X1 for home missions. Dr. C. H.

PLEAS ' FOR HOME MISSIONS Evening Derated 'to Presentation of the tknrek'a'WoTk at Ita Dpora. The Home Field"' waa the general tonic of the 'mtpstdnary mass meeting In the First Methodist Episcopal ' church yester day evening, and an audience which tilled the lower tlortr of the building, listened to four ' prominent and Interesting speakers who set forth particular fields of the do mestic' mission wofk. Bishop W. F. Malla lleu of Auburn dale1, Mass., presided and opened the meeting with a few general and Introductory remarks. The speakera were , Dr. Henry K. Carroll of New York, who had for a eubjeot "'Porto Rico;" Pr. Frank M. North of New York, who spoke on "City Kvangellsm;" Dr. W. H. Nelson of Huntavllle, Ala., on "Our Colored Work;" and Bishop J. W. Hamilton of San Fran cisco who dealt with "The Frontier Mis sion Field." . Dr. Carroll began hia remarks with a description of the country and of the In habitants, giving Illustrations of the hon esty and freedom from crime of the people. "They are aimple minded and hospitable," he said, "and In Juat the right atate to ac cept the gospel. Hound them In a revolt against the church; they would not go to chureh and they would not take the sacra ments. AS aooh a we aent missionaries they Ailed -jut little ehurehes to overflow ing. They brought 'their children to Sunday school. Our church, and not only ours, have met with wonderful auecesaea. We now hHve six alatlnna with over 10 mem bera and are raising up local preachers who go Into the country districts, neglected be fore. The people of l'orto Rico know for the first time an honest government. Just courts, free schools and Sunday schools, free speech and freedom of worship. They know for the first time the lAird'a day. But there are things the government can't i do for them and the church can. There I never was such a chance and If we eend a few more missionaries and appropriate a little more mcmey I believe In ten years we can evangelize all of our portion of the Island." Dr. North found two city mission prob lems In the colored race and In the foreign born population. Of the first, he thought that perhaps the race question would be settled In the north, and. If so, this would bo done In the citlea. The non-English speaking people he felt were a great men ace In their Ignorance of American Insti tutions and prejudice and lack of interest. The appeal of the gospel must be brought to these people. The church should see In this God's opportunity for work. The Italians form a great field, and he thought it would be a good iden for some bishop to work exclusively for their evangelization. He thought ,that while appropriations are being made for other educational work an opportunity should be given In the great cities to reach these people, the second generation of which are the great danger, growing up with no religious or moral edu cation. A foundation should be made on which to build. A liberal donation tfhould be iriRdn to the city charch Mttcatlun in stitutions. Dr. Nelson spoke. In place of Dr. G. O. Logan, who had not arrived. "I wish the white people of the north knew more of the south;" said this colored preacher, "so that they could see that the work they are giving so liberally to support Is doing so much. The church found tho colored race just as they had been turned free, full of superstition and Irreligious and knowing not how to come to God. Now there are 1,700 colored ministers in these conferences and scores of young people going out as teachers. I believe with the school houses you have given us and the churches, we will rise to a height where the people of the world will rejoice to see us standing." Bishop Hamilton proved a witty speaker and drew much applause. He told of Call fornlan conditions when he first went to that state', how the churches Were taxed yearly to the sum of $260,000, and how munv churches were lost because the tax money could not be raised. This tax was repealed two years ago, but the schools of the church still carry a heavy burden. Thn two universities three years ago had a debt of $100,000, since which time the people had raised $3,000,000 on debts and endowments. In one place where n debt had to bn raised the San Francisco Chinese had paid the last $1,000 because the church schools had been the first open to them. The bishop had Just returned from a visit to Alaska, for whldi he has the greatest enthusiasm and for which he made a strong plea. A fine class of people he found to be going there and the church must enter the field strongly. He had secured a superintendent for the work there and six active and suc cessful young men to preach. These must be supported or the field abandoned. laaaoal Salt at Aberdeen. ABERDEEN, S. D., Nov. 11. (Special.) During the November term of the federal court. Just opened by Judge J. E. Carland, the.
