of JBoard and Committees
Are Presented.
FRESNO, Cal., May 19. The Cum
berland Presbyterian General Assem
bly began the day by electing- a mod
srator's council of one representative
from each synod to assist the modet
Uor in appointing committees. Th
item presenting the returns of te vote
on union was referred to a special
committee composed of Dr. Texnpleion.
Rev. T. A. "Wigginton. Rev. J. J. Mc
Clellan, Judge Beard and Judsre Young-.
The committee was instructed to can
vass the votes and present a lull re
port at noon tomorrow.
The anti-unionists held another cau
cus this afternoon. Reporters wer
sxcluded. Judge -Fussell, of Tennes
see, chairman of the caucus, said la an
interview:
"I can announce to you .tnat the
""umbcrland Presbyterian Church will
be continued intact with its present
doctrines, whatever the action of th
general assembly may be."
When asked if that was the decision
af the caucus, he would not say It was.
but insisted that the statement was
authoritative, lie added:
"We do not believe the confession of
faith of the Presbyterian Church ban
been revised, but it is the same as It
has been for the last 400 years, -whick
Is fatalistic and predestinarian."
Rev. A. N. Eshman. a prominent
leader of the association, said toduy
that the unfon might as well be con
summated at once, as many would
never so into it so long- as a line f
the Westminster confession remained,
and stated that, if the union was not
consummated now. Its opponents would
raise a campaign fund of 325.000 to do
feat it.
This is the absorbing question, and
not much interest was taken in the
routine business of the afternoon,
which, after the standing- committees
had 'been announced, consisted of the
presentation of numerous reports of
boards and committees.
The report of the committee on fra
ternity, and union was mainly devoted to
the subject of federation amort? the
Presbyterian and Reformer Churches. An
account was given of the meeting of the
representatives of the various churches
at Pittsburg and the plan of federation
adopted by that conference was submit
ted. In view of the relations existing be
tween the Presbyterian and Cumberland
Churches at this time, the committee
thinks it unnecessary to recommend any
specific action with the federation plan,
other than to express interest in it and
to keep In touch with It.
With reference to the pending union
with the Presbyterian Church of the
X'nited States, the report declared that
in view of the favorable action of a
majority of the Presbyteries it was only
necessary to remind the assembly of its
duty to declare the result of the vote
and to give notice to the Northern as
sembly in accordance with the provisions
of the plan of union.
This report was referred to the ppecial
committee of five appointed this morn
ing. It will report Monday, as no busi
ness session will be held Saturday.

WIXONA LAKE. Ind.. May IS. The
leading of reports, appointment of clerks
and committees and discussion of evan
gelistic works by speakers, several of

A message from the General Assembly
of ihe colored Cumberland Assembly, in
scsjilon at Huntsville, Ala., stated that a
committee of seven had been appointed
to confer with a similar committee from
the assembly in session here, looking to
the union of the two branches. About
50,000 colored people compose the Cumber
land branch.
At the opening of the session Dr. Sol
C Dickey presented Moderator Moffatt
with a gavel made from different woods
representative of the Winona work. In
replying. Dr. Moffatt referred to the man
ner in which the different woods had
been blended, and likened them to the
different branches of the Presbyterian
Church. This reference -to the question
of union with the Cumberland Presbyter
ians brought forth loud applause. Dr.
John B. Shaw, of Chicago, reviewed the
work of the evangelistic committee in the
last four yearsv
Dr. Moffat announced the appointment
of Justice John Harlan, of the United
Statest Supreme Court, as vice-moderator.
A number of reports of special commit
tees were received. The committee on
marriage and divorce urged that the rule
that ministers refuse to peform marriage
ceremonies between divorced people, un
less the causes for the divorce are Scrip
tural, be continued. The committee on
Christian work among seamen asked that
more chaplains be secured for the Navy.
The. committee on church co-operation
and union submitted a plan for uniting
with the Reformed Presbyterian Church.
The report of the special committee on
evangelical work was in part as follows:

committee that from the flrst year of Its ap
pointment the tide ot evangelism has ben

Southern Presbyterian Assembly Xot
Yet Ready for Unions.
FORT WORTH. Tex., May 13. The
question of uniting the Reformed and the
Presbyterian Churches still remains a
matter of speculation. Just before the
close of today's .session of the General
Assembly of the Presbybterlan Church
(South) the report of the committee -on
closer relation was read and circulated
in printed form on the floor.
The report recommended the appoint
ment of a committee to confer with simi
lar committees of other churches as to the
most advisable course to pursue in the
premises. The report was ordered re
ferred to a commltte of 13 to be appointed
by Moderator PlunketL This committee
will report back its recommendations.
In speaking of the .proposed federation,
several of the older members of the As
sembly expressed themselves as decidedly
opposed to a union. It is "generally be
lieved that there is little likelihood of
steps looking to a union of the two
churches being taken by this assembly.
It is probable, however, mat the question
of closer relationship with the Northern
churches will be taken up and. in the
event that this is done, it Is thought it
may lead to a final union..
The first order of business was the con
tinuation of reports of committees.
Among the reports submitted was that
of the executive committee on ministerial
education and relief. Several standing
committees "were reported .by the moderator.

Oregonian Correspondent on World Tour
Pint of Frederic J. Raskin's Letter W"lU Be Published Tomorrow.
Readers ot The Sunday Oregonian will be interested in the announce
ment that it will begin tomorrow the publication of a series of travel letters
by the famous correspondent, Mr. Frederic J. Haskln.
In conjunction with a number of leading American newspapers, we have
arranged to send this noted writer around the world. His articles will begin
in Hawaii, and continued through Japan, Manchuria. China. Philippines,
Strait Settlements. India. Italy, Switzerland. France, England. Germany
and Russia.
Mr. Haskln will discuss the situation In our new possessions from a
nonpartisan standpoint; will compare English and European colonization
methods and results, with our more recent experiments in government;
will go thoroughly Into the significance of what has come to be known as
the "brown peril." meaning Japanese ambition: will give some close-range
studies of royalty, and descriptions of the lives and customs of the people
of the lands through which he will travel.
Travel is the greatest of educators, and Haskln has a fine faculty ot
explaining simply and effectively the things which come under his observa
tion. His work covers a wide range of topic and style, and appeals to all
classes of newspaper readers.
To be sent around the world Is the greatest assignment a newspaper
correspondent can be given. Realizing that readers will naturally feel an
Interest In the personality of the man who has been intrusted with this
important mission. It may be said that Haskin Is a young MIssourian,
scarcely in his thirties. He Is a striking example ot what is called a self
made man. His father died when he was 9 years old. and his education
began when he became the "devil" In a country printing-office. Young
Haskin proved a handy boy about the place. It was not long until "he could
do anything In the office from sweeping out to writing editorials on hard
times. Before he was 21 he owned the paper and had more than a local
reputation as a writer. His ambition soon took him "on the road." Slowly,
but surely, he worked his way to the forefront of American correspondents.
Mr. Haskin has encountered many strange experiences in his work. He
has tramped with the miners in the Klondike; he has wandered through
the ruins of St. Pierre, under the shadow of awful Mount Pelcc; he has
taken part in yellow-fever crusades In Havana; he has written Mexican
bull-fightfe, Panama revolutions and Newfoundland fishing stories; he has
crossed the Andes Mountains on mule-back, and has traversed both the
Chilean desert and the Argentine pampas. In his own country he has had
every possible assignment, from interviewing the President to traveling
with a circus.
Such a range of experience has greatly broadened his. understanding of
world affairs, and added to his work that coveted quality which Is known
to the profession as "color."
His round-the-world trio promises much, and all who follow him in his
travels will be entertained.
Mr. Haskln is now well on his way upon the long Jaunt around the
.globe, and his letters from Hawaii have reached this office. The first, ac
companied by fine Illustrations, will appear tomorrow.
question when it Is formally present
ed, said today that all right to make
Ilea selections has passed away since
the lieu land law- was repealed.
Can't Exchange Patented Land.
For this reuson he holds the view,
shared by others, that school lands
which have been patented to the state
and which may be Included within the
limits of a forest reserve cannot be
exchanged for vacant public lands out
side. Technically such lands cannot be
included in a forest reserve any more
than a private homestead, because the
Government has authority to. reserve
only vacant public lands. But where
unsurveyed section 16 and 36, which
nave not been patented to the state,
shall be included in new reserves, it is
the opinion of this official that the
state will be permitted to make In
demnity selections.
It Is pointed out that there is a vast
difference between Indemnity selec
tions and lieu selections. The former
applies to cases where the state never
did procure title to land to which It
was entitled: the latter applies to lands
that have been patented to the United
States. There will be a formal ruling
on this question when the letter of
State Agent Oswald West Is received
and that ruling- will be general and ap
ply to all states. Since most lands
which will hereafter b& included in
forest reserves are timbered and moun
tainous. It is said that most school sec
tions will form the basis for state in
demnity selections, provided Secre
tary Hitchcock holds that the state
still has this right.
AV1II Omit School Sections.
It is a fact, however, that on the ad
Nice of Chief Forester Pinchot, school
sections will be eliminated from ,the
new reserves created in Oregon and
California, "because Of the terrific state
land frauds In those two states." as he
expresses It. This exclusion will apply
largely to school sections lying around
the borders oC new reserves.
There will be delay In creating the
Blue Mountain reserve in Eastern Ore

CAMPAIGN DISEASE.
Doctors Arouse Public Interest In
War Against Tuberculosis.
WASHINGTON, May 19. The first an
nual Conference of the National Associa-tlon-for
the Study and Prevention of Tu
berculosis ended tonight at a banquet.
Two days have been occupied with the
presentation of views by prominent mem
bers of the medical profession from all
sections of the country. The compari
son of data' regarding what Is being done
to stamp out "the great white plague"
led many speakers to predict that popu
lar interest Is awakened on the subject
and that the Immediate future will wit
ness greater organized activity in the
treatment and care of consumptives than
in the past.
One section of the congress has devoted
Itself to the discussion of the sociologi
cal side of the -problem, while another
has taken "up the medical features. The
morning session of the sociological sec
tion embraced a symposium on sani
tarium treatment of consumption. In
discussing the sanitarium movement. Dr.
W. J. Marcley, of Massachusetts,- gave
credit to efforts of labor unions. H. M.
Dunner, of Denver, advocated a special
tax on unsanitary sections of cities. H.
W. Allen, of New York, told of the ex
periments In that city with the seaside
treatment of surgical tuberculosis for
children. One hundred and fifty children
have been treated in this manner, he aid,
and the success has been phenomenal.
This afternoon the session of the socio
logical .section was devoted to two papers,
one entitled "Progress of the Sanitary
Movement In America." by Mr. William
H. Baldwin, of Washington. D. C, and
the other, "Infection In Transportation,"
by Dr. H. H. "Bracken, of St. Paul.
One of the points .of Interest brought
out In this discussion was that every
effort so far made to establish self-supporting
communities or settlements of
tuberculosis patients had proved a fail
ure. Nevertheless a partial support had
been accomplished under carefully di
rected Industries In the open air.
It was the general opinion that all
cases ot tuberculosis should be allowed
to remain at large, where .proper care
of the patient was maintained and proper
sanitary requirements observed to pro
tect members of the family In which the
patient resided. Nowhere except In "New
York l there legal authority to compel
the retention of a patient against his
wilL Such authority. It was argued, was
most desirable.

that the matter had been under consider

"THE OLD DELIGHT"
Before Coffee Did Its AVork.
When you get from food that power
which keps the heart beating high,
full and regularly, and the nerves firm
and steady, you may say with Monte
Crlsto, "The World Is Mine!"
All things that may be attained by
human endeavor are possible to you.
But if you fill the stomach with
drugs instead of food, you get only an
unnatural stimulation which leaves
you jn worse condition than you were
before. Coffee la a drug. In time that
sort of thing w ears on you and wrecks
the whole nervous system. Sure, sure,
sure! A lady of Mamaroneck, N. y.,
tells bow she became a nervous wreck
through the use of coffee:
"I had ben a sufferer," she says,
"from nervous indigestion for a num
ber of years and doctored for the same
without result. I was In part to blame,
for although the physician forbade me
the coffee, and limited me to a small
allowance of tea, I failed to obey' blm
and continued to use coffee until. I be
came a nervous wreck. My digestion
got to be so poor that I was unable to
eat scarcely anything. I becanie very
much depressed and discouraged over
my condition, for I had no hope ot re
lief, until a little more than a year ago
a friend recommended Postum Food
Coffee.
"1 was greatly surprised to find that
the new beverage acted almost Imme
diately and most favorably upon my
nerves. It certainly Is a nerve-builder,
at least it has been in my case. In an
incredibly short time my nervous In
digestion disappeared entirely, and
with It has gone the depression and
blues' that follow in Its train.
"I am careful to boll Postum Coffee
from 20 to 30 minutes then, using
either boiled or condensed milk, or
cream, trjc latter preferred. I have as
delicious a beverage as the old coffee
at Us best, and never feel anything but
pleasant effects from Its use and the
