good deal OF talk has been occasioned by Mra
Burton Harrison assuming the authorship OF the
new play to be produced at the Madison square
Theater. 1t is called "A Russian Honeymoon"
and is announced as by Mrs Burton Harrison.
The lady whom have mentioned before in my let
tiers Is the leader OF certain literary set here and
Is anxious for literary distinction. II does not
seem credible that she has voluntarily offered the
play as her own, but she has certainly not denied
the authorship sosfaE Every one who is at all
familiar with foreign novels will remember the
charming little book under the same title which
was issued by French nrm some four years ago
This novel was dramatized into a play, and both
the novel ana the play are known by the same title
Square 1heafer. Once before play was produced
in New York by amateurs in the Academy OF Mu-
sic. which called "A Country Belle" "A Rural
Belle" or something OF that sort, and for a long
time 1t WAS known as Mrs Burton Harrison's play.

WHICH ?-Shall Sunday be preserved, OF
the saloons? This is the question that now
deeply concerns the people of Texas. These
institutions are at war with each other. Il
we have in Texas towns and cities the quiet
and good order that all good men and good
citizens desire, it will be when the Influence
of the saloons has been broken down under
the pressure of the moral sentiment Of the
people. The saloons are at wal with the
Sunday law, as they are at war with moral
ity. Which shall we preserve-our Sab
bath or the saloons? -Ieras Ado.
We would be short-lived people
without our Sabbath. Such is the his,
tory q all nations who have ignored
this day, especially when they have
recognized Gods law Where would
these advocates of personal liberty
stop if they had their way? Certain
ly not until they had license to dc
what the individual might please. =
What reign of terror that would be!
We must remember other people have
rights, and no individual has right
to violate the rights of Others Socie-
ty is organized for mutual protection
and help. We dare not help ourselves
to the downfall Of our neighbor, mol
even to his detriment The closer We
stick to Gods laws the more prosper
ity will we have, both as a community
! and individuals. Do the best thing
for myself, and thou wilt do the bes
for thy neighbor; but remember Heav
ems laws are the only sure ones.
