Is authorized under the present law, aa
Panama succeeds to the sovereignty of

the Organisation.
WASHINGTON, Nor. Il.-Among the
recommendations for the organised militia
contained in the annual report of Acting
Adjutant General Hall of the army, made
public today, are the following: That the
attention of congresa be Invited to the
advisability of a provision In the appropria
tion bill . for tho next fiscal year, giving
forage to the horses of mounted militia
troops and of mounted militia officers while
at maneuvers; for per diem allowance to
bo made for the hire of horses of militia
troops and batteries while engaged - In
maneuvers; for the furnishing of fuel for
cooking and heating purposes by the United
States while engaged In maneuvers, and for,
the furnishing of straw and hay for bed
ding of militia soldiers while engaged in
maneuvers
In order to increase the attendance at
drills and thus secure increased efficiency
of the organized militia, that governors be
permitted to utilize the allotment of their
respective states under section 1661, Revised
Statutes, for the purpose of furnishing per
diem allowance, not In any case to exceed
43 cents per drill of one and one-half hours;
for tho purpose of paying enlisted men of
the enlisted militia toi attendance at
each of the twenty-four drills annually re
quired by statute. 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.
That states be permitted to retain rjfies
and carbines how In use In military schools
and colleges, Instead of. throwing- them
away on the receipt of hew arms.

General Hall's report la exhaustive, dcnl
lnr with every ph'use of the mllltnrv estab
lishment, but more than one-half of It Is
aevotedto the militia ind it glvea a de
tailed account of the worklnga of the act
to promote the efficiency of the militia,
passed at the last session of confirress.
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. If this enmity extends
to any conalin-aUe-iiortlon of thoir mem

some southern communities that under the
prealdenVa orders white national guards
men might be compelled to serve under a
colored commander, and still others believe
that they are atate troopa and ahduld not

these cxamplra. however, are to be regarded
as sporadic rather than contagious, and aa
the Intent of the law becomes better under

read .the llnanclal reports for the year.
This showed the total of -tl,K4,223.8o re
ceived from all sources,, this being the
largest figure ever reached in the Methodist
Episcopal chuich. Of the 153 conferences
all but thirty-six showed .an advance over
funds subacilbed last year. The total in

At the conclusion 'of this report Blriiiop
James-N. Fitzgerald of St. Louis moved
that the committee proceed to r-pproprlute
this sum for the ensuing year. This waa
carried with an amendment that the odd
hundreda be omitted. Bishop Charles H.
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

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

Illshop Andrews of New York presided
at the afternoon session. 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. Jackson objected saying .that
If nothing wi spent to weep up the church

"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.

That the beginning of catarrh is due to'
the presenco of germs In the air passage
Is now admitted by every physician. It.
stands to reason that catarrh cannot be'
cured unless these (arms are first de
stroyed. The Hyomei treatment kills

mucous membrane , and makes complete
and lasting cures In cases that have re
slated the usual methods of treatment.
Catarrh cannot be cured by medicines
