have been established OF the Iiibbard

The advance guard of the Kent county

with Judge Hatch and Fred ;. Clark IN

entered the thlcSest of the fray.
The iudgeship Is the principal
prize and but little IS heard of the regen-

Hooker, Peeler. Lane, Russell and
Kuns are the names most prominently
mentioned. The officers for the con-

A STRANGE PROCEEDURE.
The Salvation Army Strike Up "a Tom
Tom in the Face of a Funeral.

Tom I'm the Face of "A Funeral
One of the most disgraceful and
Illuminating spectacles that have ever
been witnessed in this city was present
ed at the funeral of Charles c. Rood
yesterday. Just as the coffin was borne
from the house TO the hearse, the
Salvation Army, which had posted
itself at the Monument Park, within
stones throw Of the mourners, struc k
up It's diabolical tom-tom, regardless of
all the propriehes and sanctities of the
oc casion. The episode gave rise to the
most unfavorable comments on the
methods of the Salvation Army. he
gentleman who gave to the TELEGRAM
HERALD the above facts said:
II does really seem that salvation
that does not save its votaries from
such brutal exhibitions o. cruelty as
that which we witnessed this afternoon
ought TO be suppressed by law. ! do
not believe that the Supreme Court con-
templated this sort OF thing when It
decided that the religious right of the
Salvation Army 10 parade the streets
must not be taken from them. As
understand that decision. IL was based
upon the assumption that the Army
had not been proved TO be an actual
nuisance. II merely denied the arDl-
trary right of the Mayor to suppress
their marching when no overt acts of
nuisance were proved against Them.
But now, however. the operations Of
the Army have gone beyond that first
innocent stage. do not think the
public generally understand the force
of that Supreme Court decision. Where
the Army actually crowds up9a the
rights of others, their statys as law
breakers Is exactly what II was before
that decision was rendered. There ls
not the remotest doubt that Il the men,
hers of the Army who made that de-
monstration yesterday IN the face Of
Mr.. Rood's funeral were 10 be arrested
for disorderiy conduct, they would be
convicted and the Supreme Court would
say II served 'em right"

Something for Nothing,

The world is full of people who want
to run before they know how to walk.
Such people are the ready prey of sharp
ers. Sometimes this trait of wanting to
get something for nothing is exhibited
in a very amusing way.
A young man afflicted with this fail
ing was offered a situation in Peru, but
upon investigation it was found that
some knowledge of Spanish was requisite.
"Devote year to the str ly of the
language, and you will become suffi-
GENTLY proficient to be useful, " said the
manager kindly.
But that was too slow method for
the aspirant. He spent three months in
trying to devise shorter plan, until one
day he saw an advertisement stating that
directions for learning any language in
"a hours would. be sent for the small
sum of So.
All, here was the solution of the prob
lem! He sent the 50, and in reply re-
ceived this printed slip:
at is extremely simple. Just divide
the language into "a parts, and learn one
each hour"
He deserved to be thus humbugged.
Let us hope that he protited by his lesson.
