Military Academy Burns to Ground. Columbia, Mo., Oct.—The Univer- sity Military Academy burned to the ground here at 4 o’clock Wednesday afternoon, regardless of the efforts of apprexim:tuly 1,000 Miesoer University students, who formed a 300 yard butket brigade and fiercely fought the flames. Colonel John E. Welch, superintendent of the academy eatimated the loss at $20,000. The fire started in the attic of the three-story brick structure, presum- ably caused by matches. Cries of “Fire! Fire! Fire!” from cadets on the campus alarmed those in the burning structure. The thirty-two | | cadets in the school aucceeded tn sav- ing their rifles, portions of their per- sonal effects, and academy furnish- ings. The fire alarm spread to the State University, a mile distant. A thous- and students, both young men and women, deserted their classes and ran to the ecene, carrying buckets. The academy is outside the fire lim- ite. Hastily the bucket brigade formed, but the delicate stream was as nothing against the already well underway fire. The cadets are sleeping at various | homes in the city. The offer of the Elks Lodge as temporary quarters for the academy has been accepted. School was resumed Thursday, as usual, The University Milltary Academy is a private institution, founded twelve years ago. The building de- stroyed was erected two years ago.

Eddy is to haye no successor as head of the Christian Science church according to a statement iseued by Alfred Farlow, the spokes- man for the church. The statement reads: This talk about @ successor to Mrs. Eddy is purely speculation and fs no more than & rehash of 8 manu- factured rumor which has gone the rounds of the press for years. In the first place, the well preserved con- dition of Mrs. Eddy, as recently dis- covered by the public, makes the question ofa successor very much out of time. In the second place, one who is at all familiar with Christian Science must know the impractica- bility and impossibility of a person- al successor to Mra. Eddy. Chris- tian Science already is discovered and established and Mre. Eddy al- ready is succeeded {0 a large measure by the religtoscience which she teach- es and she will never have any other successor. The Christian Science church will never have any other per- sonal leader besides Mra, Eddy.” How's This.

In his speech before the Philippine assembly Secretary Taft sald that the policy of this government ‘must logically result finally in ending the sovereignty of the United States un- less both peoples agree to retain the bond owing to mutually beneficial trade relations.” Iu the same speech Mr. Taft sald that he did not think the Filipinoes would be fit for selfgovernment for at least a generation. In theoptnion of Mr. Taft the American people must have tariff revision; bué not now, not now. They must trust the republican party. In the opinion of Mr. Taft the Uaited States must withdraw from the Phillppines, giving the people of those islands self-government; but not now, not now. The Filipinos must trust the republican party. Surely Mr. Talt ts proving his right tothe title of “she Great Postponer.”” Hard Times in Kansas.
