THE State Of Maine has at last an
other controversy I'm its hands that
has nothing to do with the drink
habit. The attack made by Miss
Frances f. Willard on the gum-chew-
ing habit has proven a bone of con-
tention. One of the leading papers
of the State has come out boldly in
approval of Miss Wizards dictum;
but another, published somewhat
nearer the source OF the gum supply,
denounces it in round terms. The
denunciation is craftily put on the
ground of the inherent right of the
citizen-and especially Of the citizen
ess-to chew what she pleaSes; but
as the doctrine initiates directly
against the prevailing creed in Maine
on the subject Of personal freedom,
we are inclined TO attribute the de-
Tense to sympathy with the producers
of gum for the market. Whatever
the ground, sentimental or CONNER
cial, the conflict is bound, we should
say, to be a warm one, and to en-
list before it is terminated the peo-
pie OF the entire State, from Moosele-
megunticock to the Androscoggin.

all of these arc united, as shown In my

The progressive King of Siam, in
his anxiety to better the condition OF
his people, has taken to wandering
among them disguised in plain clothes.
Amusing stories are told of the scant
courtesy which he received last win
ter from his subjects who did not rec
ognize him and, regarded his curiosity
as bit of impertinence. The king
must originate every reform himself,
for he is an absolute monarch. and
not even his most progressive subjects
would dare to commit so great q
breach of etiquette as to suggest any
innovation upon established customs.

CHICAGO women who are plunged
into depths Of melancholy by the dis
covery that the law which purpOrts TO
give them the right to vote for school
officers is simply a fraud and a de-
ceit, should take heart. The expert
ence of Boston has shown that the
fashion of voting, like other feminine
fads, is but transitory, and does not
persist through two consecutive elec-
sions. Last year $500 women regis
tered in that city, while this year
but 1000 made preparation to avail
themselves Of that right of suf-
frage which seems so precious to
woman until she gets it.

MODERN modes Of travel, the tele-
graph and the postal system have
combined to make this very small
world. Time was when the people
who lived in one country regarded
distant regions as somewhat myth
cal, as impossible to reach, and as
belonging almost to another sphere.
A person could commit crime then,
and could disappear as effectually as
Now Americans daily meet acquaint-
2nces on the streets of Paris, and
men who have formerly lived in Osh-
kosh are not surprised at encounter
ing old friends in Natal. All of
which remarks are peculiarly applica-
BILE to the case of Jack Hallowell, ex-
organist of Chicago church at the
corner of Twenty-fourth street and
Lawndale avenue. Mr.. Hallowell
had a pretty wife who sang in the
choir Of the same church, and the
couple were much respected. A short
time ago a Lawndale man went to
England on visit. While there he
met a woman who asked him il he
had ever met Jack Hallowell in
America. Now America is a, very
small place, and OF course the young
man had met Mr.. Hallowell. The
woman who asked the question was
the mother of five children, and was
and is Mr.. Hallowell's legal wife.
The latter is no longer organist of the
pretty church at Lawndale, nor does
MS American wife sing in the choir.
There is just enough of moral in
this story to make any man who has
put the world between himself and
an unpleasant past feel uncomfort-
