The season just closed stands out in the
atrical annals as one of the most disastrous
ever known. The country is strewn with
the wreckage OF small companies, and the
big troupes have come in with smaller
earnings than for many seasons past. A
careful estimate Of the attractions that have
drawn most money on the road shows that
the palm belongs to Fanny Davenport. She
laid of several weeks through sickness,
yet her average receipts. even counting the
tune she was idle, were $500 per week.

Probably no orator that ever lived
was accustomed TO speak to as large au.
diences as Charles Ii. Spurgeon ad-
dressed. No preacher who has had a
permanent mold ON the public ever
gained distinction so young or with so
little preparation, educational or other
wise. When only sixteen Spurgeon
preached his first sermon When only
fifteen, however, he began his career as
an assistant teacher in a school at New
market England, and here he changed
from Congregationalist to Baptist. When
he was nineteen years old he was preach
ing to audiences of 5000 to 5000 persons
in London Before his own Tabernacle
was built his congregation leased the
great Surrey Music hall, which held 49,
600 The Metropolitan Tabernacle, which
was shortly built for him by his increas-
ing congregation, seats more than 5000
people, and was always so crowded that
it was necessary to get admission tickets
TO it several days before each sermon.
No great singer, lecturer or actor ever
drew such audiences as this man, who
simply pointed out the truths of the
Christian religion.
MIR. Sturgeon seemed to upset all the
ories of every kind in his career Like
Socrates. whose words mankind hangs
upon to this day, Sturgeon was one of
the most unprepossessing of men in per-
sonal appearance-shorta and squat, with
flat nose, thick lips and protruding chin
and with no physical grace. Yet Wen
dell Phillips, the most beautiful, grace
full. eloquent and cultured Of men, never
drew to him such audiences as this
homely looking man did, by mere power
of his personal magnetism. Spurgeon
was an absolute teetotaler in his habits,
yet he suffered agonies with the govt
for years and finally died of it. Here,
too, he upset old theories. The only
way the doctors had of accounting for
Surgeons govt was that it was heredi-
tary One NEUROLOGICAL small vice he
had, and that was he would smoke
good cigar.
With all his soul he believed in the
power of prayer as a means of getting
what one wanted He used to declare
that he never needed money for one of
his many benevolent enterprises that it
was not forthcoming if he prayed for it.

Here in Whatcom county today we
are proposing to construct a system of
county highways by means of policy
little better than that which proved a
failure in Great Britain a century and
half ago, and led to the formation of
turnpike trusts" into whose manage
ment the most egregious abuses crept.
Roads were built by bonds without
stock, and the trustees were empowered
to charge such tolls as would
suffice to defray the cost of
maintenance, pay interest on the in
vestment and gradually discharge the
principal Here we propose to bond,
not the roads but all our property, and
trust the expenditure of an immense
sum of money to three men. concern
ing whose fitness for such a
trust nothing whatever is known,
and empower them further to levy
upon us direct tax sufficient to
cover the cost of repairs, provide for
the interest and pay the principal
within twenty years-and get in return
we know not what. We are asked to
assume a heavy burden without any
semblance of reasonable assurance of
proportionate benefits.
We are cody informed that the COM
missioners, who may know no more
about road construction than Siwash
does about Egyptian mythology, will
/ determine what manner roads shall be
built, prepare the plans, let the con-
tracts, supervise the supervision, pass
upon the work and direct the issue
of warrants upon the peoples treasury
in payment. All that is asked of us is
to furnish the "barrel." The commits
sioners will tap it and do all the rest.
The word System" is a misnomer ap-
piled to such proposition. Surely the
people of Whatcom county are not suf-
ficiently gullible to be bamboozeled by
such a scheme.

A bill is before the legislature to es-
tablish a reformatory for female prison
ers in New York city. Sixty per cent.
of all the women arrested in that city
are under twenty-five years old. Yet
these girls, many of whom are taken in
merely by their ignorance of the ways
of the world, are thrown into prison in
intimate association with hardened old
women reprobates who, live only because
they are so tough a life of dissipation
has not yet been able to kill them. The
very atmosphere of such creatures
would have a vicious tendency. even if
they never opened their mouths. In
this atmosphere, stepped as it is in deg
radiation, young girls are thrust and
kept during their term of Imprisonment
Some Of them are no more than sixteen
Some are really innocent of any crime
at all, or it may be the first time that
others have been arrested All, how
ever, are herded with the worst of the
prisoners. This is true not only of New
York, but of all the large cities, and
there ought to be a change, and that at

contribution of the latter part of the
