The desire of Midshipman Stephenson,

ven after having been educated for the
navy, Is accounted for from th fact of
hla approaching marriage. A recent order
of the secretary of the navay prohobltlng
th marriage of midshipmen until after
two years of service following their
graduation, accounts for Midshipman
Stephenson's wishes to transfer hi al
legiance from the navy to th army.

"Christianity."
OMAHA, Neb., June 23. To th editor
of Th Bee: Now we hav "Christendom"
by Ole Munoh.
Truly, In these day of reform . move
ments It would be a good thing for th
churches to unit in a resolve to practio
Biblical Christianity insofar aa It would be
compatible with present condition.
Who 1 there who can honstlyty that
Christianity, as we find It In th Bible,
ha ver been practiced, that is, by so
large a number of person aa would be
sure to attract attention T Only a few
week ago, In listening to a sermon by one
of our leading ministers. I tuard him
make reference In a scornful and con
temptuous way ' to out-cast men and
women, and then befor my mqntal vision
there wa th wide dlvld tnat Ilea between
the gentle Nasaren and the many who
preteng to follow In hi footstep. Naught
but pardoning pity, the go-thou-and-Sln-no-mor
feeling- ever welled up In th heart
of th soft-eyed Nasaren When He con
templated th erring and th unfortunate.
A for -divorce, most of ua agree that It
should be the last resort Sti domestic in
felicity, but this la no argument against
It. There waa never an institution that
had not some abuses: That of marriage Is
no exception; henc we have dfvorc aa a
remedy.
Woman Is man's equal, therefor she
should hav suffrage and fair competition
as a wage-earner. -
Point out th man of moderate Income
who can support hi wife, daughter,
mother, slater and mother-in-law. He
never haa and never will.
Mr. Munch 'say that man should rul
over woman after Moses' law, and yet he
would hav u bellev that h advocates
Biblical morality. He overlook th fact
that Moses' views of morality war totally
different from those entertained by ethical
students of to-day. Moses waa anything
but moral In th sense In which that word
Is now employed. HI order to hi soldiers
returning with the captives which they
had taken Is enough to settle the question
of his morality. Number XXXI :13 con
tain the order, Mr. Munoh.
"Woman should be man' helpmeet,"
ye, and not his alave; not chained to a
few humble duttea.
Mr. Munch'a argument will not atand in
these day of woman' widening horiion.
Let us progress. Grapple with present
day evil In a rational way, and that
surely doe not mean a reversion to old
time methods. - Very respectfully,
i XENIA FAIRCHILD.
M'GREW HAS CLOSE CALL
