The new jail law, passed and approved
In April, ought to afford instru ctive
reading to the oracle of wisdom at Red
wood. 1t provides that prisoners shall
receive no butter, sugar, pastry, tobacco
or other luxeries except on Sundays and
holidays. This is more stringent
treatment than even Thurber and the
Gazette complained of, but it IS the law
nevertheless.

Minnesota duck and goose hunters will
hardly be satisfied with the new game
law, evidently passed and approved by
mistake. 1t provides that ducks Can be
shot between April Goth and September

1t reverses the present law and robs the

Edwin Booths condition was failing
according to yesterdays reports and it is
quite evident that the great actor, the
foremost of his kind, has but few days
more to live. 1t is sad almost to lose
such kindly spirit and such a gifted
man, for Americans have learned to hold
HIM in highest regard. They see no one
to take his place and feel acutely that
when he dies the last great light of the
old school Of tragedians goes out.

In an Iowa town, when a man is al

Fashionable society has laid down the
rule that it is perfectly proper to have
dances and gay festivities in Lent, pro-
vldlng merely that the object is to help
the church and poor. For the benefit of
fashionable society, which, by the way,
has suffered considerable decay of late,
we would say that it is as true now as
ever that the end never justifes the
means. Furthermore the church cannot
by being made beneficiary, shield any
improperly, neither can any crime, by
being clothed with the mask of charity
be made any less criminal. Logic is
logic, says the deacon. So also with
right and wrong.

There was a good deal of commend
able patriotism manifested in turning out
in crowds to pay respect to the old In
dependence bell of 1776 as it was carried
on its way to Chicago for public exhibi-
ton, for it not only showed regard for
the sentiment which that bell subserved
in the days of Revolution, but at the
same time it may have strengthened in the
young their love forwhat is first and best
in our Americanism- cause of liberty
but the toadying by great throngs OF
people to foreign duke, who happens
to be able to trace up some relationship
to the great Columbus, is foolish, un-
American, and inconsistent with the In
dependence of which we boast. 1t ought
to cease before the public laughs.

 X VERY valuable communication from our regular correspondent, T. :" entitled "What Children Should Read and Why.n appears in to-day's issue. Parents should ponder over it's perti- nent suggestions. Such books as ''G. IT. mentions as unfit for moral eye may, possibly, be found in Forrest City. Perhaps there is not bookstore in the land but which keeps a select stock ot trash. It is necessary, because of the demand. The bookseller cannot be found fault with. He is doing q legti- mate business. We are glad to be able to state that the demand in Forrest CitYis largely for the higher class of literature.

SUNDAY evening there boarded the eastbound Little Rock and Memphis tram, near Heath, several Memphis business men, who had spent the Sab bath in duck shooting match. They had bagged seyenty-two ducks, besides having lost twenty-five or thirty. There is law against hunting on Sunday and also prohibiting hunters from other States hunting and shipping game out of thls State. TIE FINES would have no complaint to make against legiti- mate hunting on hunrting days, butwe feel it to be our duty to protest against this utter disregard of our laws by Memphis "sports," and we hope the grand jury will investigate the matter and indict every mothers son" of them.

WHILE in Memphis Monday night. the editors Of TIE TIMES had the pleas ure of hearing the Rev. Sam Jones preach one of his characteristic ser mons. TIE TIMES is on record re- garding Rev. Jones and it has nothing to take back after having heard him. We can say however, that he utters many great truths. Aside from de- filingGodis house with slang, profanity and vulgarity, the Rev. Sam Jones might be justly rated d "tolerably fair" preacher. We have always been taught to hold in reverence any and Iall thingsof, or pertaining to God, and the church and pulpit are of these. We therefore cannot endorse the loatt- some vulgaIity and indecencies which We heard fall from the lips of this at 'tractiye man. He uses such language as ''You old she-deyil cats" when ae wishes to specially impress his female bearers. He said that if his mother had been q shameless woman and a strumpet. yet would he be better than many Of the men in his congregation. He several times intimated that many in his congregation were sons of ca hines. Crowds go to hear him for the same reason that they go to a theatre to be amused

IT is with sincere regret that we note the ill health of Mr. l.. A. Palmer, ot the Helena Morning Advertiser, and its consequent suspension. The Adver- tiser was paper alike in sentiments with THE TINES. and one in touch with the people. With no desire to praise ourself, by comparison, we trutiifully say that we can ill afford to lose even one such paper. We hope the Morning Advertiser will be re- sured at an early day.

TIE following is practically illumi- Datige of the conditions which encircle Forrest City. Speaking of the ~Litch- field car works having been secured for Memphis, as resrltof the efforts Of the Young Mems Commercial League, the ! Monroe County Sun says: Clarendon ought to have some sort Of an organiza- ton te look after such matters. There s0ittle doubt as to the benefit that wouh result from barring the advanta- ges Of Clarendon as a manufacturing point prominently before persons inter ested, There is no reason why we should not have furniture factory, adry bar rel factory. d bent wood factory and oth- ermanufacturing enterprises.

THE suggestion of several newspa- pers that the people instruct for United States senator in their primary eiec- tion or nominating conventions next year, is d gosd one.

The fiction about abandoned farms In
New Jersey is disposed of by the State
Board Of Agriculture in the annual report
OF the board which has just been printed.
The report shows that there are practi.
cally no abandoned farms in this State,
with the exception, OF course, of such
land as has been cut up into building lots
and other lands utilized by Summer resi-
dences at the seashore. There are, the
report shows, less than 400 acres in the
entire State which do not pay taxes. On
the other hand, the area OF cultivated
land In the State 10 increasing with the
clearing and retaining Of waste tracts
In South and West Jersey and, as the Sec.
Rotary Of the State Board declares, agri-
culture In the State sis steadily advanc-
Ing to higher degree of efficiency ard
productiveness. New Jersey already
stands 10 the first rank of States In the
average value Of her crops per acre, and
she is fortunate In that division OF her
enterprise between manufacture and agri-
culture which is so mutually helpful and
conductive to general prosperity.

LAMBERTVILLE. N. J.
WEDNESDAY,, AUG. Is, 1893.

1t cost the people OF the United States
about $50, 900 in couple of hours the
other day to settle In the minds Of the Of
hcers Of the Ordnance Bureau whether
some armor plates made by the Carnegie
aud Bethlehem steel-works respectively
were as good as they ought to be. 1t
was found that they were, and what that
means can be imagined when one Of the
plates was II inches thick, weighed BIZ
tons and was attacked b. shells weighing
$50 pounds each, the last ones fired from
12inch gun at distance OF only 319
feet, striking it with the force needed to
move a mass of 81, 600 tons, or 43, 900, 900
pounds, through foot Of space. The
projectie went through. We take 1t that
that did not surprise even the experts who
are used to thinking about those incon-
ceivable masses and velocities. But what
did surprise them was that the hole 1t
made was nearly as clean as il 1t had been
drilled, and that not q crack appeared
about its edges. Though this particular
projectile was lost, having been DETECTED
and fallen into the Potomac, the other
projecties which penetrated the same
plate were found in perfect condition and
fit to be used again. That seems almost
more marvellous than the perfection of the
plate. Meanwhile the people of New
York may take some satisfaction in know
ing that down at Sandy Hook the War
Department has just mounted gun that
will throw 1000-pound projectile, and
make hole in the heaviest armor-clad
ship now afloat at distance of six miles.
II we must spend money on what we
hope are purely peaceful experiments, 1t
is a comfort to know what we get for it.

Instances are multiplying TO show the
absurdity and injustice Of the odious col
lateral Inheritance taxa strictly Demo-
cratic measure for revenue only, devised
to supply funds for the support OF use
less office-holders in New Jersey. The
late James Holmes, of Boonton, left some
real estate to found public library in
that town. Under the new law 8 per
cent. Of the value of this real estate goes
TO the State. Worse than that, the off,
cials who adjust the matter receive per-
eentage for their services. 1t is claimed
that In the matter of the Holmes legacy
they have made the appraisement of the
estate about 30 per cent. too high, 10 or
der TO increase their fees, and the trustees
of the library will appeal to the courts for
justice. A tax that will reduce a legacy
given for humane purpose is about as
mean lax as can be devised, and cannot
be repealed too quickly.
