he brought him to Jesus and when
Jesus beheld him He said, Thou are
Simon, the son of Jonah, and thou .halt
be called Cephas, which, by interpre

The purpose of his discourse was to
show the power of reincarnation
through the love of the Son of God.
He said:
"Like the little man in that great
story of 'The Passing of the Third Floor
Back,' who made out of his degraded
/ neighbors the dream characters he
thought they might be, so Christ would
mold for us the character He knows we
can posses.. It Is His divine power
that can develop in us all the good we
are capable of. The Inspiration which
leads the teacher to develop the good
that is in the child is the fruit of the
confidence that is shown.”

icisms for his artistic portrayal of the
German character. Ben Turbett, a Celtic
wit and an actor of ability, is another

f 0“ EMPLOYEES
Corporation Sets Aside Fund
For Pensions, Sick Benefits
and Life Insurance.
The American Bell Telephone Com
pany today completed its arrangements
for setting aside a fund of $10,000,000
for pensions, sick benefits and life in
surance for the 175,000 employees of
the allied companies which make up
the big wire corporation, the Southern
Bell being one. About 10,750 employees
of the Southern Bell -are included in the
list of persons to be benefited by the
fund. The Western Union Telegraph
Company and the Western Electric
Company both are included.
The benefit fund is the idea of the
veteran, T. N. Vail, president of the
American Bell Company, and will be
supported by gifts from the corpora
tions themselves, without calling on the
employees to pay any portion of the
cost. As fast as claims are paid from
the fund the companies will replace the
amount by additional gifts, keeping the
fund always up to its maximum.
Male employees who have reached 60
years and who have been twenty years
in the service may retire on pensions,
the amount to be based on salary and
length of service. Women employees
may retire at 55 years. Payments for
disability from accidents and for sick
ness are provided, and in case of death
from accident in performance of duty
an insurance amounting to three years’
pay will be paid the dependents of the
dead employee, the maximum payment
to be $5,000. In case an injured em
ployee has legal rights to redress he
may exercise the option of accepting
the benefit or exercising his legal
rights.
The administration of funds will be
in the hands of employees' benefit com
mittees, to be appointed by the direc
tors of the respective companies.

Chee Chow entered a persistent denial
through an interpreter, declaring with
dramatic Chinese positiveness that <he
was not the man who escaped from the
ship, but the identification of the first and
second officers of the vesel left no doubt
in the mind of the commissioner. The
prisoner had a letter from his father in
New York, together with the price of
railroad fare to that city.
