AGAINST THE BIBLE.
The wisconsin Supreme Court Rules It
Out of the Schools.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court Rules 1t
Ont of the Schools.
The Catholics Of Edgerton won a victory
in the supreme court which has decided
that reading the bible in the public schools
was forbidden by the constitution because
1t Is q violation of the rights Of conscience;
because it is sectarian instruction, and
because it compels parents to aid in
the support of a place Of public
worship against their copsent. Says the
court farther. that reading the bible in
schools, although unaceompanied by any
comment ON the part Of the teacher, is in
struction seems too clear for argument.
Some Of the most valuable instruction q
person can receive may be derived from
reading alone, without any extrinsic aid by
way Of comment or exposition. The ques-
ton, therefore, seems to narrow down to
this: In reading the bible in schools-not
merely selected passages therefrom, but
the whole Of it--sectsrian instruction Of
pupils. In view of the fact that the bible
contains numerous doctrinal passages,
upon some Of which the peculiar sect Of
almost every religious sect is based. and
that such passsses may be reasonably I'M
derstood to incnlcate doctrines predicated
upon them, affirmative answer to the ques.
ton seems unavoidable.

a Proposition Made ~ . Syndicate Of
Wen Known Capitalists.
A new proposition In connection With
the proposed establishment Of a govern.
ment postal telegraph system has been
made to the house committee on post
offices and post roA.s by J. Al. Seymour,
a member Of the New York stock exchasge.
Mr.. Seymour stated that he represented a
number of we'll known capitalists who were
willing to build lines andmaintain q postal
telegraph system under government su-
petvision in a%ccordapce with tho provisions
OF the postmaster generals bill. or to OPP.
crate On a uniform 25.cent rate. The
menus by which the gentlemen repre-
sented by himself hoped to make the
Undertaking a success was by what is
known as the Patten multiplex telegraph
system. The syndicate proposed to build
and maintain the lines as needed; to
furnish operators, power md sta
tionery. and to have the right to
build and be protected in construct
ing lines over all postal roads.
They asked to he exempt from federal aud
state taxation. 1t was desired to make a

years with the privilege OF a renewal, un-
less the government would take the lines at
the end of that time at Q value to be APP
praised by experts. The syndicate OK
pected to be allowed to do a private busi-
ness outside of the government work. F.
Jarvis Patten, the inventor Of tho system
referred to by Mr.. Seymour, described il
to the committee. BY il the carving ca.
paclty Of n wire was equal to eight Oh
even twelve wires under the present Morse
system. To maintain the lines under the
Patten system would cost IS per cent. loss
than under the present systeme. Mr.. Sey-
mour stated that 1t was proposed to lease
wires TO newspapers at almost nominal
rates and to reduce press rates about 33 pc,
cent. To establish the system under the
provisions Of the postmaster generals bill
would cost, he believed, about 81, 600, 900.
A complete system covering the entire
country would cost $25, 100000.

REVEALING SENATE SECRETS.
Instances Where Members Were Gem
sured for Dealing With the Press.

AAStanseS Nnere MeMDefN Were Cen.
sured for Dealing With the Press.
A Washington dispatch says: The re-
ported serious consideration by tho
Senate of q proposition to imprison
newspaper men and abolish the press
gallery, in retaliation for the refusal Of
correspondents to reveal the source of
information upon which they based dis
patches purporting to detail proceed
ings at secret sessions of the Senate, is
not surprising to some of the ..old.
stagers' hercabOuts who remember that
at different times in years gone by SINH.
lar talk was INDUCED in and for some.
what kindred reasons. Probably never
but once or twice did the Senate sue
iced in finding out just how and
through whom the secrets leaked out.
Nearly fifty years ago a Senator from
Ohio gave to q newspaper man a copy of
certain very important documents. and
their publication excited the Indignation
of the Senate to such an extent that q
resolution to expel the Senator from
the body was introduced. but as the
matter was debated tho heat Of the
Senate gradually toned down and it
vindfcated its privilege and authority by
c%ensuring the guilty statesman. But
Immediately afterward another resolu-
tion was adopted that, in consideration
of the acknowledgements and apology
rendered by said Senator, no further
censure be inflicted upon him.
Another instance was afforded during
the term of Senator Cragin from New
Hampshire. His copy of the corre-
spondence relating to the treaty of Wash.
ington was accidentally lost, and some
newspaper found it and published the
important matters which the document
contained. An investigation was order
ed, and it was found, by the voluntary
statement of Mr.. Cragin, that he had
lost his copy Of tho Important secret
document in question. His perfect hon.
esty and frankncss disarmed criticism,
and he was let off with o mild though
serious admonition. not to do SO again.

Jim Murrtn runs n of the most villain
GUS dens in the Michigan wilderness, four
miles back in the woods from Potts. He
has now confined in his place thirteen girls,

ance OF their fate. allured and deceived by
the lies which this man told them or which
were related by ON agent Of his. The stock
ade is called the Block House" but ON tho

scribed as the @State Road Hotel" and a
summer resort. The last of Murrin's VIC
Tins are two girls from Whitehouse, Ohio.
The younger escaped aud returned to To.
ledo, but the other is still held. This is the
pitifui story she tells:
This man Murrin came to Toledo last
fall. He was introduced to as, described
his fine hotel near the Au Sable river, told
what an elegant line of summer trade he
had, and SAID the people who worked for
him had practically nothing to do. He
returned to Potts without us and soon
came a letter written on Estate Road
Hotel" stationery, offering us even more
pay and suggesting that he advance our
railroad fare. We finally decided to accept
places as dining room girls. Murrin met
us and as We drove through the woods and
barren pine plains we were both frightened.
When he drove up before the barracks we
both cried and asked him to send us home.
He refused, saying that he had advanced
us money and we must remain long
enough to pay that any way.
I'VE were given a filthy room, aud sat
down and cried for an hour. The place
was q rough pine howell, and his fine trade
seemed nothing but a gang Of drunken
choppers. We locked the door, undecided
what to do, until the most wretched look
ing woman anybody ever saw ordered us
to come to the bar-room.
Fearing We might be killed, we went to.
ward the room. l still was crying, and,
fesitating at the bar.room door q moment.

Must Foot Their own Bills.

Washington dispatch: Inquiries have
reached the War department from
various quarters asking whether there
is any appropriation available to pay the
expenses Of veterans visiting the battle
field of Chickamauga for tho purpose Of
aiding in Identifying the lines upon
which they fought. There is no fund
available for that purpose.
Upon the passage of the Chickamauga
park bill, which is expected early in the
summer, officers vii be sent to the field
to confer with all veterans who will
gather there to assist In establishing the
lines.
Until then the time and expense Of
those visiting the field would be entirely
wasted, since no one can be there to
make an Official record Of the Informs
tton gathered or to officially mark points
which might be designated BY the visit
1ng veterans.

With w. B. Ogden he was successful
in completing the Chicago & Galena

made themselves pioneers of the present
railway system of the Northwest. During
this period Mr.. Scammon also took an

banking business, forming the Marine
bank, which was the first in Chicago

time was estimated at $500, 900. BY
1873 he was in fair condition to repair
