Melissa Breslaw returned and gave an
entertainment last Saturday night. A
large audience was in attendance.
A meeting was held last night for the
purpose Of taking steps toward rcincor.
porating our town, but owing to there
being but few present no definite action
was taken in the matter.
DR.. S. d. Stidgcr, made the opening re.
marks, and pointed out the great adyan-
tages and absolute necessity Of our hay-
ing the town reincorporated.
lie was followed by J. Il. Folks, who
argued at some length the possibility of
curtailing intemperance il the town was
incorporated and good men chosen to fill
the necessary offices.
b. W. Brewster arose TO explain, and
suggested that the President state the OBJ.
ject OF the meeting for the benefit OF the
gentleman who had Just spoken. He
presumed il he would defer his temper
ance lecture until some future occasion
larger crowd could be had to listen to
it. He further stated that the town had
been incorporated once or twice previ-
onsly, but not meeting with the approval
OF the majority, the charter had been
surrendered. The high tax necessarily
imposed upon property holders although
not one HIMSELF should be taken into
consideration, and he hoped the subject
would be laid over.
It is a shame that our citizens have
not enough interest IN this matter to
show their approval at least, by their
presence at the meeting. II our town
keeps on in the downward course which
has Of late been manifested by the numer.
ons depredations committed by the host
Of rouphs who carry things here with a
high hand, think our citizens will re-
greet their indifference to some remedy
ior the correction Of these outroges on
the peace Of the inhabitants and the good
name OF the town.
Prot. NIiller's singing class promises to
be one Of the most successful classes ever
organized and taught in our town. All
the members are taking great interest
in it,and attend regularly with theexpress
determination Of learning. I'VE are glad
to sec so many OF the parents take such
an active interest in the matter, and try

rocks and went down slowly In her doom

ing, awaiting death. One was girl,
young, petted, surrounded with luxury,
having "ied on the roses and lain in the
lilies of life" and one was scholor,
trained in many tongues, a woman OF sci
ence and skill, with purpose and q career
and one was a young daughter, with life
all before her, and one was wife and one
was husband, with their consecrated
past. And there sat they, in the midst
Of the night, going down slowly in the
midst OF the shrouding waters, calm,
prayerful, conquering death. And as the
waters rose around them they arose, still
holding each others hands. And so, weak,
helpless, they were engulied in the awful
depths, but, sublimely triumphant, they
passed out into the unseen universe. II
Is character that prevails. What odds
whether it is music, or medicine, or cos.

garb or woman's multitudinous drapery
that has occupied the mind, il so be il
can encounter the vicissitudes OF life with
fortitude and face death with tranquility!

THE Maryland House of Representa-,

THE Maryland House Of Representa-
tiyes has passed righteous bill regulH.
ting the sale of seats in theatres, concert
halls, and other places Of amusement. 1t
provides that proprietors or lessecS shall
not mark any seats as sold, taken orre-
served unless they have been actually sold
as reserved at least one hour prior to the
time of the beginning of each performance
the penalty for violations being fine Of
from one to five dollars for every seat, one
half to 60 to the informer and the other
half to the Comptroller for the school
fund. A similar law should be in force
in every town and city to prevent the i'm
position Of conductors Of all places Of
amusement. It is not unusual to see
hundreds Of front seats ticketcd IRE
served, /" remaining unoccupied during an
entire performance, while persons who
have paid for seats in the same section are
compelled to occupy less eligible scats in
therear. The practice should be broken
up as an imposition on the public.

THE New Mexico FRAUD.--The ter
ritorial secretary reports that there arc
now 11G public schools in New Mexico,
all told; children in school 1904. In II
Of these schools the instruction is in
English; in 80 it is partly inEnglish and
partly in Spanish; in 60 it is wholly in
Spanish. In the greater number Of the
public schools the textbooks in Use are
the work OF members Of the society Of
Jesus, and the Roman Catholic catechism
Is part Of the curriculum. In five
counties, the schools are directly super
yised and controlled by the (Roman
Catholic) clergy. The secretary reports
decrease Of seven in the number Of
English schools and an increase Of % in
the number Of Spanish. He writes to the
commissioner OF education that nine
tenths OF the people Of the territory
speak a foreign tongue" that most Of
them arc illiterate, and that there is very
little comprehension as yet among them
Of American Institutions. And this is
the promising population to which the
United States Senate would give an equal
voice and vote in its chamber with the
people of Massachusetts,!

appointing ten delegates TO tho Union Republican
National Convention which Is 10 assemble at Gin.
einnau on the 18th day Of june, 1876, and to NOM
mate ave Presidential Electors.
Tho committee Is Of opinion that IT will be lin.
practicable 10 avoid holding two Conventions, and
that the purposes Of this Convention arc not Of
sufficient Importance to justify calling for large
county delegations and therefore suggests that each
county will sVnd FIVE delcSRtes-thCso delegates to
be appointed by tho County Executive Committee,
or BY County Convention, as such committee may
dean GxpcdIent. II Is proposed to call another
Convention during the summer, at which the COM
nttee hopes 10 meet all, without regard to past po-
lItIcal differences, or previous party affiliations,
who are In favor Of making such changes In our
law as timo and experience have shown necessary
who arc Ia favored the continued prosecution and

Political Morality Of Women ,


Political Morality Of Women at
u Low Ebb.
tFrOm the NatIon.)
Mr.. 7. W. Higginson, in recent mum.
Der Of the IPomans Journal, gives an in.
teresting account OF his submission Of
the Belknap case to the Eve ladies Of his
acquaintance, one Of them a person
'"whose moral standard Is rather exacting
and whose absolute directness and truth
fulness would drive Charles Reade to des'
pair" This last one saw nothing wrong
in Belknap's performances, and argued
the matter with Mr.. Higginson. OF the
other four, only one looked at it as M
honorable man would look at case OIL
bribery, the others denounced the ex-
Secretary and his wife solely on philan'
thropic grounds. e., because they rails
ed the prices Of suffers goods to the
soldiers.
The conclusion Mr.. Higginson draws
from this state Of things (which he deeply
deplores) is that the loose views Of these
ladies on the subject OF public morality
were due, mot to their sex, but 10 the
habit OF their sex-that is, to their re.
moteness from public affairs and their
want Of familiarity with them; and he
compares their notions about bribery Il
those Of reclusc or unworldly man-to
those, for instance, Of Charles Lamb, who
humorously approved Of smuggling. Al
matter Of fact, we think Mr.. Higginson
greatly undertakes the political morality
Of recluse and unworldly males: We
have never happened to come across one
who, in his retirement, was not much
more sensitive and exacting on the mat
ter Of official purity than "those more nc.
lively engaged"
