Princess Marie, of Denmark, is pas

noon during the winter a boy, not
knowing who she was, asked her to
assist him to put on his skates. The
royal lady smiled and, kneeling down,
fastened the straps around the lads
ankles.

professor" Felix Adler is disquieted
because there is to be so much show
about the Inaugural Centennial Cele-
bration. 1t is just like a narrow
minded fanatic to take that view OF
the occasion.
1t is characteristic of shallow minds
that they are always looking for
deeper meanings and harping on util-
itarian ideas. They have not the
common sense to see that the super
fetal display which appeals to the
general eye, and kindles the I'M
cultured soul, does far more
for the establishment of institu-
tons in the hearts of the people, does
far more to awaken those sentiments
of patriotism and that understanding
of our history which are the founda-
tions of our government, than fifty
thousand dry-as-dust lectures, deliv-
cred in fifty thousand academies, by
fifty thousand agnostic cranks could
effect in fifty centuries.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN :-If ignor.
ance Is bliss the Democrat ought to
be supremely happy. when 1t charges
the Republican Board of County
Commissioners with extravaganza in
carrying out the provisions of the law
In relation to the County Treasurer.
By the way, that little bit of sharp
practice in our county Legislation
has history which the Democrat
conveniently forgets, or imagines the
people have forgotten.
The dominant idea was not to save
the tax. payers anything. but to get a
Democrat into Office.
Two bills were introduced, one in
the Senate and one inithe House. The
Senate bill fixed the Treasurer's com.
pensation at 5 per cent, while Mr..
Friend, who protested great solici.
tude for the welfare of the taxpayers
fixed the compensation at per cent.
Both bills fixed the appointing power
with the Governor. Mr.. Friends
bill got through first, but not in the
form In which it was first struggled
through the House.
The soul and life was all cut out OF
the bill, and its authors lost all III
terest in it and all concern for 1t
when, by Senate amendment, the
appointing power was given to the
County Comm listeners. =
The primary object and purpose
was to steal the Office. Failing in
this, they little cared what became
of the bill afterwards.
But the Democrat should be suffi-
GENTLY candid. sufficiently modest,
to not insult the intelligence of its
readers by the disingenious pretence
that the County Commissioners are
responsible for the doings of the
"Late Lamented."

A correspondent of the Southern
Christina Advocate gives the follow
ing particulars of new religious
community developing in the east
ern part ofSouth Carolina: "1t may
not be entirely uninteresting to hear
something of a new sect that has
sprung up in Sumter and some of the
adjoining counties. Some years ago
a man by the name of Boyle, who
had been Methodist and who re.
sided near Lynchburg, in Sumter
county, conceived the idea of found
ing a new sect. His followers were
at first called "True-Light Baptists,"
hut they are commonly known as
"BOyleites." They have spread upon
both sides of Lynch's river, through
Sumter, Derlington, Kershaw and
Chesterfield counties, and perhaps
farther. Their most prominent and
popular doctrine is that it is an UNI
pardohable SIN for preacher to re-
ceive pay for his work, and this
closes their ears to the efforts of the
regular ministry. They have no
regular ministers. but claim that ev-
cry member of their church is inspir-
ed of God to interpret the Scriptures.
thus making every one, of both sexes.
ministers of the Gospel. 1t is not un-
common for women to preach among
them. Another favorite dogma is
that they constitute the only true
followers of God. and that all other
denominations are heading straight
for the devil. They believe in i'm.
mersion, of course, but with this dis
tinction, that it must be administer
by one of their communion to be oil
any avail. They reject the Old Tes-
toment entirely and receive only such
portions of the New Testament as
suit their purpose, rejecting any pas
sages that are opposed to their pecul-
lar beliefs as uninspired. They claim
that the observance of the Sabbath
was abrogated along with the Levitt
ical law, and hence reject Sunday as
a day to be observed in the worship
of God. They perform ordinary work
on Sunday or engage in any sports
that they desire, and have been seen
fiddling and dancing on that day
They believe in the damnation of the
infants of unbelieving parents who
die in infancy. They believe in the
social equality of the races.
"Just what else they believe in
am unable to say. They flourish
around Marshall's church. in the
East Kershaw circuit, and have
churches of their own in some por
tions of Kershaw county. AS rule
dense ignorance prevails where they
flourish. l heard a man say not long
since that he once taught school ir
a neighborhood where they now
claim the majority of the people al
their adherents, and that only two
out of the sixty pupils in his schoo
knew their letters when they frs
came to him. Generally they viii
not permit minister of the Gospe
to read the Scriptures or engage il
prayer In their houses, and if they
concede that much to him they laugh
and talk while he prays, and pay NJ
attention whatever to him."

Situation at JohnstoWn.

YOUNGSTOWN. Pa, July AL
though the Board of Inquiry has filed
a report to be presented to the State
Commission to-day Its WORK here is
not yet completed. Dozens of clerks
are still at work registering the losses
Of those who had not been reported.
Whether another registry will be
,slade depends somewhat on the &C.
ton taken at Cresson, but it is
thought Judge Cummin will urge
plan to get a certified list of all the
losses by the business people. At
least he has made provision for en-
gazing halt dozen notaries and half
a hundred clerks. The work of clean
ing up the town goes on very rapidly
now. and the satisfactory manner in
which things are done is attributed
largely to the fact that nearly all
Johnstown men are employed.
General Hastings left on the morn
ing train for Cresson. The old con-
tractors have about settled up their
accounts and are getting their stuff
out of town. AS soon as they are
gone raid will be made on the
buns that loaf around and hundreds
of them will be driven away. Fronts
are being put in the new business
houses in the park and they will be
ready for occupancy in few days.
The new places on the Market square
are also about completed.

ton of the local police the town will
be sufficiently well guarded. The
four Philadelphia fire engines have
been manned by local firemen. Steam
iskept up constantly and the wisdom
of such precautions was shown by
them putting out two incipient fires
this afternoon.
The board of inquiry, which has
just completed registration of all
property losses in the Conemaugh
valley. makes its report to Chairman
Cummins. representing Governor
Beavers relief commission. The
board divided the sufferers into six
classes, the first class being the most
needy-generally woman who had
lost her husband or son, and was left
with a large family to support with
scarcely any property saved. In this
class they have placed 2O5 cases. to
which they recommend the payment
of 1000 each. Glasses from two to
FIVE are not 30 destitute, but still In
great distress. To these they recon-
mend payments from $500 down to
5000. The recommendations OF the
committee provide for the immediate
disbursement of $1,16S.OO0 to 3,6St
different families. or an average o.
1922 to each family. These $3.50 case'
will include all those who are In Inn
