II we are to believe RutabRga John
son the schoolmGster IS sadly needed
in the Collin county district, the Sec
ton Mr.. johnson represents in the
state senate. According TO the sena-
tor, his constituents are poor, hard
working peoI lie, who have neither
time nor disposition to read what the
legislature is doing. But Rutabaga
has shown that he does not know as
much about the temper and sentiment
of his people as he ought. Last sum
mer when the constitutional amend
ments were up, he stumped his dis
trict opposing those measures. When
the voting day came Collin county
gave majority for the amendments.
Hence it is but charitable to conclude
that the people up there are by no
means 20 poverty-stricken and indif-
ferent as their senator depicts them.

An Episode Worthy Of Remembrance

An Episode Worthy OF Remembrance.
That the "braYest are the tendertst, the
loving the daring" has rarely found
more forciDle and pathetic illustration
than in one OF the incidents connected
with the horrible holocaust at Notre
Dame convent, Belleville, Illinois, Il
week ago to-day. Through the tele-
grams published from day to day in
the GAZETTE our readers have OBJ
tanned most Of the sickening details.
But there il one episode that shines
out with lustre not to be dimmed
The superioress Of the convent, Moth
er Mary Jerome, was among those who
lost their lives. She could have been
saved had she left the building when
entreated to do so. But her whole
care and concern was for the Young
lives entrusted 20 her charge, and in q
vain effort 10 rescue few more she
sacrificed her own life. The chsrred
bones of the noble woman were gather
ed together, recognizable only by the
plain gold crucifix (which, mysterious
ly enough, the flames had sparedl and
given sepulchre. Priests chanted the
funeral service, acolytes swung cen.
sers and the organ sobbed out the
grand HisereTc for the dead woman.
But no rite of mother church can 80
canoniae the name Of Mother Jerome
as the simple story Of her death. 1t
was heroic episode and glorious
ending ola life that had been given up
to deeds Of charity and love. Surely
there be crowns somewhere for those
who die such deaths.
