LANGUAGE AIDS IN SUCCESS.
One who has been a close stu-di-U
of matters commercial dur
ing the past de;ade will have
found ample cause for gratifica
tion with what the United States
hi achieved 'in the foreign
markets. But notwithstanding
o 'it- success we have experienced
keen competition and this com
petition by no means decreases
as time rolls by.
Germany may be considered
out' greatest commercial rival in
certain foreign countries today.
English and American methods
of dealing with a people of alien
tongue savor somewhat of same
ness. A good representative of
an Knglish or American firm in a
L. .ieport would be considered
a-ood man to do business in
Hong Kong, or anywhere else
for that matter. Not so with
the foreign representative of a
German firm such representa
tive must e fluent with the
language of the people With
whom he is to deal
This may seem a small matter,
but indeed it is now credited
with being the source, of the
greatest commercial advantage
to the children of the Father
land. How can a Yankee drum
mer expect to hypnotize the
.heathen if he is not qualified to
make said heathen understand
his jargon? Successful trading
depends largely on "jollying"
-and "chin music"
FOB HIS EXTERMINATION.

PRONOUNCED INSANE.
Trial Ended at Seattle Creffield-
Mitchell Case.
The suspense in the case of
Esther Mitchell and Maud Hurt-
Creffield is for the time at an end,
but that the affair is not definite
ly concluded is the opinion of
those who are best posted. Even
in case the women go to the asy
lum, they will it is possible not
remain there permanently and
who knows what may happen if
they are again allowed to go free
and follow their own morbid in
clinations? The dispatch telling
of the close of, the trial, says:
The commission named by
Judge Frater,. of the Superior
Court, to inquire into the alleged
insanity of Esther Mitchell and
Mrs. Creffield, charged with the
murder of George Mitchell, to
day reported through Dr. Ken
neth Turner, chairman of the
board: ,
As a result, of its labor, the
commissjon is unannnou.-ly of the
opinion that subjects of this in
vestigation were at the tiniv.-uf
the commission of the crime char
ged against them, ud are now,
suffering from a form of :;ia..iiv
commonly classified-as paratMia,
which has its origin in t. ructural
defects of the nervous system.
Further, that because of this
disease, they were at the time of
the commission of the crime
charged possessed pf such derang
ed mentality as to make them un
able to distinguish between right
and wrong, and therefore irre
sponsible criminally.
Further, that these individuals
belong to a class of lunatics dan
gerous to be at large, who persist
ently follow their morbid inclina
tions, regardless of law Or ethics, ;
and should be placed uudei re-!
straint in an institution for the 1
proper treatment of sugh cises.
Separate reports were made in
each of the cases but they are ex- j
actly the same, with the excep-!
tion of the names inserted. The
reports were not signed, but the
attorneys stipulated in open court
that they were to be considered
so. After the reports had been
read, the Prosecuting Attorney
declared he was not satisfied with
it and in the name of the state
would oppose it in every way and
first of all would take an appeal.
Judge Frater stated that tomor
row morning he wiil sign the
commitments for the women'to
be sent to the .-Utv.- asylum until
such time as trt attorney's office
can take the matter up.;, He de
clared that the only way an ap
peal can be t-j'ken, in his judg
ment, is to S'-cur? a writ from the
Supreme con... f rcing the lower
court to refrain from sending the
women to Oregon until the-matter
can be decided.
When the result of the exam
inations and the findings of. the
bcEid were told to Mrs. Creffield
by her father, O; V. Hurt, the j
woman said: "I am glad 'for '
your sake." The younger girl ,
nad nothing to say. -
Good Work Done.;
. . - - 1
At an adjourned meeting of the
quarterly conference of the M - E. !
ennrch, held last night, the con
ference year was practically
brought to a close. It has been
a very prosperous year in the his
tory of the institution, with lar
ger congregations and larger at-
tendance; of the; Leagues and
Sunday School meetings than in
any year -heretofore.
There have been great and last
ing improvements made in the
church .itself the past year, as
everyone is aware, and in spite of
the 1 ct that , the cost of improve
ing the-' building amounted to
something like $5,500 by farthe
larger part of the "debt has been
provided for and it is only a mat
ter of time until the remainder
will have been disposed of in a
satisfactory manner.
In the Sunday School there
are 20 faithful teachers and offi
cers, with an enrollment in the
school of 230 and an average at
tendance of 185.
The Epwortb, Intermediate
and Junior leagues have large en
rollments and are very active in
their various lines, while the wo
mens' societies are all that such
organizations were intended to be
and are doing good work.
All in all, the year has been
one of progression add develop
ment lor the church, and the
coming year will no doubt be
marked by even greater growth
