The Salvation Army
4 General Booth has began to provide for the future of the Salvation Army. He has nominated his daughter, Marochal Booth, to succeed himself in command of the religious hosts. In so doing he passes over LieutenantGeneral Bramwell, who naturally expected to succeed Booth some day. The General gives his reasons very briefly. " Women are the best rulers," be says. " If you refer to the capacity shown on several critical oooasions by Queen Victoria you will agree with mo that she acted while her advisers were seeking how to act. I am arranging that the work of saving* human souls may go on after my deatb. All my title deeds will be transferred to my daughter's name. "
