LONDON, June 10. (By Mall to New York.) Swapping horses In the middle of a stream la usually consid ered rather ticklish business; but there's no reason, In certain circum stances, why one shouldn't chuck the horHP und take to a boat especially If the horse is overloaded and the current has carried him off his feet. This Ih just the predicament In which John Hull found himself nine, month after the war started only more so. The horse he had been riding since August 4, had not only become just ubout tuckered out, but lie had gone lame and had begun to balk. Also, the stream which at first appeared comparatively easy to ne gotiate had transformed Itself It. to a raging torrent, and the further shore kept receding. So John very wisely decided to huck the old single-party cabinet nag and get aboard the coalition boat, llut he didn't arrive at this decision voluntarily. The crew fairly had to drag him off the horse and onto too hnnt An.l ha would probably still be cllnguig to old Dobbin's back If Premier Asqulth hadn't pushed him while the others pulled. The recent cabinet crisis came as! no surprise to those who have had the privilege of observing from the near-Inside Great Britain's conduct of the war In the past few months and especially the past few weeks. While the Herman people had stead ily become more united and deter mined, with the successful prosecu tion of the war the one thing upper most in the mind of every man, wo man and child in the fatherland, nothing apparently could Jar the pen. plo of England out of their attitude of indifference and apathy. Knlist menu fell off. labor troubles Increas ed, and though day by day saw the. Germany more strongly entrenched ( than ever and offering fiercer resist- .nee, "biislnesA as usual" and "pleas ure as usual" continued to be the watchword of the vast majority of tV British natloa. Hut these things were obvious. It was not known to the public that the most serious sort of dissensions had hprung J)p among the men whom tlia country had entrusted with the task of saving the empire and let it go at that. First came Hie row in the admiral ty between the first lord, Winston Churchill, and the first sea lord. Ad miral Fisher. Churchill, the civilian head of the navy to whom the em pire owes nn everlasting debt of gratitude for mobilizing the fleet he fore the declaration ot war and thus raving to Jirltaln the control of the sea embarked the country upon the disastrous Dardanelles adventure, over the protests of Fisher, and with out the knowledge of the cabinet gen erally, until after the enterprise had gotten too fur along to be abandon' ed. Churchill didn't figure for a minute that the Dardanelles could be forced by ships alone, as some folks charged, but he did figure on Greece coming In and with her army assisting on the land. This time ha guessed wrong. The Venezeiog cab inet fell at the critical time and Greece kept out. The naval attack failed, and a lurge expeditionary Itnd force had to be sent by the allies. Churchill continued to exercise his control over matters of purely naval strategy, until Fisher couldn't stand It any longer. He handed Premier Asqulth his resignation but with a string tied to it. If Asqulth w.uld fire Churchill Fisher would stay. Just about this time the scandal in the army, which had been browing for several weeks, boiled over. The British public came as near to being shocked as It ever does, when It learned that a Berlous quarrel had arisen between Field Marshal .Sir" John French and his chief, Lord Kitchener, over the question of mu nitions. French had been bombarding the war office ever since the war started for an adequate supply of high ex plosive shells. In nearly every dis patch since Neuve Chapelle he had been asking, begging, Imploring, and even demanding an Increased per centage of this kind of ammunition. He had plenty of shrapnel, but shrap nel which was a very effective wea pon In the Ifoer war was about 'as useful against the strongly concerted trenches of the Germans as water from a sprinkling can. Kitchener kept sending Sir Jdhn shrapnel in, huge quuntltles, but Ignored his plea for Increased percentage of high ex plosives, although, as his friends as sert, there were large stores of the latter available. One result of this lack of high explosives at the British front was the practical failure of the British In the recent combined of fensive which they undertook with the French. In one engagement the British .lost 15,000 men In killed, wounded and captured as against the French 2000 although the French were operating over a larger front owing to the fact that the British ar tillery fire had failed effectively to clear the ground for the Infantry ad vance, Threatened revelations in this con nection precipitated the crisis. The conservatives, who had supported tho government from the start, although they had no say In tho conduct or the war, decided at last that It was time to art. Bonar Law, their lead er, intimated to Asqulth that he could not prevent ventilation ofthescandal on the floor of the hou.se. The liber als cried "blackmail!" But Asqulth, forseelng that the active antagonism of the opposition In these circum stances, would mean the disruption of the already badly disorganised lib eral ministry, took the only possible course. He invited the opposition to join him in the formation of a coali tln cabinet for the period of the ws'.r alone. It is a tribute not only to Asquith's statesmanship but also to his remark. able hold over bis followers that ho was able to quickly bring his party Into line. The liberal membership ot the house held a meeting of pro test Immediately after Asqulth had announced from the floor that a co alition ministry was being arranged They began to "rock the boat," but Asqulth, who appeared on the scene lust In time quietly hut firmly said: "Gentlemen, if you are not satisfied you may have my resignation."

MacCorry, the emi nent Catholic missionary, editor and lecturer of New York, needs no w ords of Introduction to the American pub lic. His work has been before our Catholic and non-Catholic population for sixteen years and speaks trumpet tongtied for itself. His' reputation is easily national, his surpassing elo quence having crowded to overflowing the largest church edifices and audi toriums across the country. Some of his lectuhes have been delivered at times on consecutive nights through out an entire week In the same audi toriums to ever-increasing audiences a fact, we think, somewhat unique on the lecture platform today and which speaks more eloquently than any words of ours of the Intrinsic merits of both the man and his work. Father MacCorry Is a most gifted speaker. His lectures are great pop ular orations filled with vital truths. His splendid voice and dramatic de livery adds to their interest and pow er. His native wit, splendid epigrams and faculty of npt illustration, play through his sentences like shuttles In a loom. His scholastic training, breadth of vision, wide travel, and years of experience before mixed au d'ences of nil creeds and conditions, qualify lilm In an unusual degree fot tho lyceuin platform, where he has been pre-eminently successful. Father MacCorry Is on of the great popular lyceum orators of the generation. Lecture Subjects. "The Kingship of Man.'' Making for individuality and Initiative for light, for liberty and Independence.

" I suffered terribly with female weakness and backache and got so weak that I could hardly do my work. When I 4 washed my dishes I had to sit down and when I would sweep the floor I would get so weak that I would have to get S drink every few minutes, and before I did my dusting I would have to lie down. I got so poorly that my folks thought I was going into consumption. One day I found a piece of paper blowing around the yard and I picked it up and read it It said 'Saved from the Grave,' and told what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound has done for women. I showed it to my husband and he said, ' Why don't you try it ? So I did, and after I had taken two bottles I felt better and I said to my husband, 'I don't need any more,' and he said 'You had bettor take it a little longer anyway.' So I took it for three months and got well and strong." Mrs. Alonzo E. Bakf.r, 9 Tecumseh St, Adrian, Mich. Sot AVcll Knough to Work.
