This brings the recital to the de- spatch of the German gunboat Pan- ther to Agadir—an act which, it has been steadily maintained in official quarters, was in nowise designed to “stake out a c#im” in South Mor- occo—but, it is now admitted frank- Iy, was intended primarily not for the protection of emperiled Germans in the neighborhood, but to produce a resumption of the interrupted *“con: versations.” In this it was prompt- ly and theatrically successful. The result, the Foreign Office ciaims, far from being a defeat or fiasco, has carried to a logical con- clusion the Franco-German agree- ment of 1909, giving France the free political hand therein contemplated and to Germany and incidently to the world at large adequate protection for freedom of trade, whether the country remains a Fren¢h protector- ate or is ultimately absorbed in the French colonial empire. That Ger- many has obtained a large increase of colonial territory and in addition has sidetracked one of the most pressing dangers to the peace of the world it, it is claimed a tthe Foreign Office, so much clear gain for herself and the world. M. E. CHURCH WILL TAKE OVER FEMALE INSTITUTE Memphis, Nov. 16.——The Memphis ! Conference Female Institute at Jack- son ,Tenn., conducted now as a pri- vate institution, will be taken over by the Memphis Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, This was decided at today's session, It was proposed by the citizens of Jackson that the congregation prop- erties valued at $30,000 be purchased by popular subscriptions and turned over to the conference with the pro- vision that the church set aside a like amount for its maintenance, The proposal which was endorsed by the District Board of Education and a Board of Trustecs was named to direct the institution's affairs. Announcement was also made to- day that a sufficient amount had been raised to make certain that the erec- tion of the prn]mst-fi Mecthodist Epis- copal Hospital in Memphis would be- gin within a year. Subscriptions ag- gregating $38,000 are in hand. The total cost of the building will be ap- proximately $150,000. Other con- ferences will co-operate in securing necessary funds. A Difference.

We drove on and on for hours, over hills and across streams, until we finally got to the hotel. While driving, I wondered at the difference between this hack driver and those in America, and won- dered what an American hack driver would say if I were to hand him three shillings for such a long ride. “I went to bed and slept sound that night.
