THE newspapers in Cincinnati Boston and
other cities are now discussing the injurious
consequences which result to people from the
use of ice-water, which is denounced as the
cause of as much physical misery as intoxi.
eating liquors themselves We do not think
that the evils resulting from the use of ice
water are exaggerated by those who are now
carrying on u crusade against 1t. II Is un-
doubtedly the cause Of n fearful amount Of
disease and DEATH yet people in the face of
knowledge and experience persist in indulg-
ing in the pernicious habit If they will not
heed the warnings of all intelligent physi-
clans, backed by the press, they will have to
suffer the terrible CONSEQUENCES.

by the Secretary Of the Interior. DIR. Nichols
has held this position for twenty-five years,
aud in that time has identified himself with
the interests of Washington so thoroughly
that his resignation will be learned with deep
regret. He is man of the highest scientific

THE WIFE. BEATING BILL. -

THE WIFE. BEATING BILL. - The
continued case of KilIalee, charged
with wife-beatlng, came up before
Judge Knox in Virginia Monday.
Lindsay, counsel for the defense,
moved 20 dismiss the case on the
ground that the punishment provided
IS unusual and cruel. Judge Knox
denied the motion. He said he was
willing to certify the case to higher
court for the purpose of testing the
constitutionality Of the law. 1t will
be brought before the Supreme Court
upon a writ Of habeas corpus. Judge
Knox has pursued the proper course.
We think it would lead to endless
confusion if the precedent of Judge
Moses should become the established
rule in Nevada. When the case is
decided we hope the Supreme Court
will also give an opinion as to the
right OF Justice of the Peace to de-
clare law unconstitutional.

if one baby was blessing two babies

ceeded to business. The husband
and father now knows why man

trots his two knees up and down,
one after the other, all the time
stretching out his hands as though to
clasp pair of angels in long clothes,
humming softly to himself mean
while, "By o-baby; by two babies
