The American Protective Association Is feeling its oats. It has already done some useful work in this State and it expects to do more. How much 1t will do depends entirely upon its honesty and patriotism. If it becomes mere political machine, as there Is great danger, not to say certain ty, that it will, it's run will be brief. It has good excuse for being. The facts which give 1t reason and strength are known to all, and they are deplored by many. The move ment is largely kick against Irish greed of office and the unwise action of Roman Catholic authorities. It is foolish to howl that there is no excuse for such a move ment. The fact that it is so spontaneous and so vigorous shows that there Is. There is 10 necessity of getting excited over 1t, but little plain speaking will not do any harm. And counter current to what has been going on will also not do any harm. This is free country, and people have 8 right to free speech and free political &C., tion, unless they happen to live in some parts of the South. Secret societies to en- courage the use of those rights are not just the thing, but they are quite as defensible as secret societies to nullify them. An attack on a big Church, be it Roman Catholic or Methodist, is also unpleasant, but if thoae who make the at tack feel that the big Church has attacked that which is dear to them we don't see how they can be successfully disciplined. The A. P. A. must have its fling, whatever it may amount to. And 1t will amount in the long run te just what the wisdom, honesty and pstriotism of its members amoupt to-

 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In reply to your request fer information concerning the organization known as the American Protective Association I believe I cannot do better than to give you a brief synopsis of an address given by the presi- dent on the occasion of the last meeting of the local branch of the association. Said he:
 Friends, having made considerable &C., sessions to our numbers, and feeling that some explanation of the objects and aims of our association is necessary for the guidance of our new members I cannot do better than read you brief extract from the preface of our constitution. "With an unfaultering pledge and devotion to the cause of self government and the universal advancement of civilization to institute, maintain and protect free nonsectarian public school system throughout our nation and to forever keep separate church and Stafe and with an earnest determination to promote civil and religious liberty of all | people throughout the land"
 The necessity for our organization be- comes evident when we realize the fact that the safety of the State and all that is

The very best way to know whether Dobbins' Electric Soap is as good as it is said to be, Is to TRY IT YOURSELF. It can't deceive YOU. Only be careful not to get an imitation. There are a great many Elec- tries and Magnetics, all intend ed to deceive the public into supposing that they are Dob bins Electric, or just as good. We have made this since 1860. It is the original Electric and is guaranteed to be worth four times as much as any other soap ever made. For washing anything, from the finest lace to the heaviest blanket, it is without a peer. Only follow directions.

A FINE FUNERAL.

A good many fine funerals are not paid for, as undsrtskers we'll know, but 1t is not often that coAtly funeral is allowed to burden an estate for over two hundred years. The counters of Rothes, who died in London few days ago at the age of 63, held one of the few titles in England which descend either to male or female heirs; that Is, she was countess in her own right, the title now descending to her nephew. Her death brought to notice re- markable historical incident. It seems that during the reign of Charles IT,. the then Earl of Rothes was granted a ducal title in the peersge of Scotland, and Duke John of Rothes was made lord chancellor of Scot land. He died during the reign of the aforesaid monarch in Holyrood Palace, which was then his official residence, and the grateful sovereign determined that he should have funeral worthy of his rank and his many public services. The last honors thus conferred were said to be in extent, character and magnifcence greater than had ever before been accorded to commoner in Scot
 land. But Charles H., with the in-
 consequential character of his race, forgot all about settling the bills for these funeral
 expenses, and they ultimately fell upon the Rothes family. To pay them 1t was neces
 ssry to sell out all their large holdings 1T five of the Scotch counties and to inoul l debts, secured by mortgages upon the othel
 property of the family, which have never
 yet been paid and which still greatly i'm l pair the income of the holder of the title Put not your trust in princes and do no

The race wasn't exactly procession" as they say of some of the boat races on the Thames, but 1t was near enough to 1t.
 Now for the best-the best three in five. It is pretty certain that unless things go all wrong the Vigilant will win again. If she can take the first three races without a break her victory will be additionally pleas ing to all patriotic Americans who are looking to her to rule the wave.

The Bolero with long ends in front Is now very fashionable and threatens to super sede the short kind. It Is pointed behind and tight fitting. It is not lined and is made out of four rows of broad velvet ribbon and three rows of lace insertion about an inch wide. The outline of the figure must be first traced with the velvet ribbon, after which the lace Is put on. The loose collar, which should first be cut out on paper, should be covered with lace three and half inches wide, which is gradually sloped until 1t Is only about two inches wide in front. The under part of the standing collar Is of plain velvet. The trimming of the skirt for this costume Is three bands of velvet with insertion be- tween each being about three and & half inches wide.
 Very stunning travelling gowns are of cravenette, the sometime since ''shooting
 jacket" having been revived, and all but
 tonholes and facings are finished with dark brown leather. The belt, of material to match the gown, Is very wide and fur
 nished with straps, buckle and bindings of the leather. The cloth low ehoes match the gown and are all leather finished, ax- cept for the strings, which are brown silk. The hat Is a Billycock, most British and ugly, of the dress material, and with a bow of leather and a cocks feather. 1 Gauntlet gloves, of couree of leather ex- actly to match that used on the gown.

Leland Stanford to Show
Some Baby Trotte's
That will As,onish the World---50
Coming from Pa!o Alto.


CaicAGo, April Ex-senator Leland
Stanford of California is in Chicago on
business connected with his personal ex-
hibit at the Worlds FAIR. He is working
on special feature for the Agricultural
Department. The Senator's object is 10
exhibit baby trotters, under one year old,
in the ring of big amphitheatre, He
intends To ship fifty of these youngsters
from Palo Alto in order to give the public
an insight into the primary evolutions of a
trotting horse.
Senator Stanford has lost none of his en-
thusissm for the horse Over 20 years ago he
determined on establishing a great breeding
farm for trotters and runners at Palo Alto.
He owned occident, and became impressed
with the belief that future great trotters
would come from the commingling of the
native trotter and the best types of Imported
thoroughbreds.
He devoted much time to the study of his
theory. Electioneer and General Benton
were finally selected as the stations. The
former died in 1870 with the record of Lav-
ing produced the greatest number of per
formers in $50 or better ever credited to a
sire. Sunol, Arion, Pslo Alto. Bell Bird,
and others by Electioneer were all world
heaters.
They gave direct proof of the correctness
of MIR. Stanfori's theory For holding to
il he was subjected to the adverse criticism
of breeders and turfmep and was ridiculei
by the noted horsemen but he brought il to
triumphant demonstration.
