Sabbath Defenders Sustained.

TACOMA, May 1S.-The appeal case of
D. NJ. Cook from the judgment of JUS
tice Sharp, in which Cook was taxed
with the costs of prosecution in the case
of the state vs. Bowers, came up in the
superior court todsy. Cook was acting
for the anti-Sunday Saloon association
and swore out warrants against saloon
keeper for keeping open on Sunday.
The case was dismissed by Justice Sharp
and Cook taxed with the costs, on the
ground that the charge was frivolous.
The association appealed to the superior
court, and today Judge Allyn reversed
Justice Sharp's decision and taxed the
costs on the county.
Judge Allen in the course of his decis-
ion goes out of the case at issue and
gives his opinion of the Sunday law in
general, pointing out that the city or
dinances must conform to the state law
and that the city officers have full power
to enforce the law. He protests, how
ever, against prosecutions of this class,
as they are burden to the state and
county, and the courts have too much to
do to have their time taken with these
cases, which could easily be settled, as
it is simply case of police regulation.
1t is understood that the question of
Sunday closing will now be pushed again
vigorously by the association, as it has
retained Parsons & Corell to conduct
the suits.

About Reading.

There is food for thought in the fol-
lowing remarks found in the Themis of
Sacramento:
Men are but grown-up children.
Plato's reasoning with regard to instruct
ing children applies with full force to
adults. That which a man is forced to
read never makes any lasting impression
on his mind. Superficial and hasty
reading is positively injurious to the
memory. Plato said long ago: "Les-
sons that instills forcibly into the mind
do not remain there. Make use of no
violence towards the children in the
lessons We give them; manage in some
way or other that they educate them
selves while at play, in this wise We will
be better prepared to become acquainted
with the disposition of each one. 1t is
necessary to lead children to war on
horseback, let them approach the thick
of the fray. Ye will put aside patience
in toll, more courage in danger and more
ardor for the sciences" 1t is not the
amount one reads that makes him
learned, but what he digests and stores
up in his memory. This loose and
promiscuous reading is detrimental to
the mind.

A Great Mine Shut Down.

The greatest silver and copper mining
camp on earth, Butte, Mont, has not
been dull for years. Wednesday the last
OF the employees of the great Anaconda
Company were discharged, even to
watchmen, and the company mines at
Butte and the mammoth smelter at Ana
conda are shut up. More than 5000 men
are thrown out of work. The fact that
the workmen were kept on the payroll
several weeks after the order to shut
down was given, but at last let go, indi-
Gates that the company hoped to resume
soon. That hope has undoubtedly vanish
