There is much testimony tending to

Upon due consideration our conelus-
ions upon the whole case are and the
court so holds that the funds which
Treasurer McFetridge deposited with
banks were the property Of the state;
that in making such deposits as treas
urer and STIMULATING for and receiving
interest thereon, or receiving interest
without such stipulation, he did not
violate any law of the state; that such
interest so paid to him being an accre-
ton or increment to the fund, i1creas-
ing it by the amount of interest thus
paid thereon, belongs TO the state; that
Treasurer McFeuidge received such In

treasurer and the same belonged to
his said office; that his failure to ae
count therefor to the state, or to dehY-

conditions of his official bond; and that
this action can be maintained on such

In determining this case the court

able opinion which we are not prepared

The Judgment OF the circuit court
must be affirmed.

DoLPH ON FREE TRADE.
Senator VIII Make n Speech Showing
Fruits of Protective Thrift.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. 4.-When the new
tariff bill comes up for consideration in
the senare it is likely Mr. Dolph will make
speech intended TO demonstrate that the
United States never had any prosperity
except with a protective tariff, and that
from colonial days free trade has meant
debased labor.
In speaking on this subject last night
the senator said: "In my address to the
senate / propose TO show that the Ameri-
can revolution was not brought about by
political questions, but that it was caused
by industrial matters. Free trade has al
ways meant oppressed labor.
"The tariff bill which has been reported
by the ways and means committee is q free
trade measure. The United States has
never had the least prosperity except un-
der protection, and this l propose to de-
monstrate by quotations from our presi-
DENTS messages and by the presentation of
evidence that cannot be questioned.
II will take up every period Of our his
tory and show the effect of free trade, a
principle which forced the colonies to
fight for independence.

Elaborate rituals empty OF love must be

individual states OF heart and life'
What is idolatry with one may be deep
and holy devotion with another. The
power OF ritual and sacrament to lift the
soul to the one true God always depends
upon the life we are living. But with
many of US, who make smaller use ofthese
externals of worship idolatry is to be
feared in the use OF creeds. When either
creed OF ritual ursups the Bible, and LIE
according to it, worship becomes idolatry,
and self is the idol, which, like the abomi-
nation of desolation spoken OF
by Daniel, stands in the holy place-the

Rev. :. II. Larry's Sermon Mt the
Richmond street Congregational
Church-secret societies and Church.

DR.. J. w. Webb of st. Paul's M. f..
|ohurch preached his farewell sermon yes
fterday morning. He said:
"Be We perfect" We are not commanded
herein to be as perfect as God, but as per-
feet as we can be. The command
means that we should strive to
be holy, not that we may be holy. There
8 an infinite abundance in Gods grace
and we cannot get away from it. Fill out
your measure by the methods God
choose. Love your enemies, do good TO
them that prosecute you, bless them that
curse you. These are Gods methods.
Be We perfect after Gods processes. He
loves the unlovely; We must do as he does.
Men are inclined to love Others because
they are lovable., They hate their enemies
because they injure them. God says
that we must love them. We need not
forget the wrongs they have done us, but
I'VE should return their wrongs with love.
We should forget to hate our wrongs.
Any other remembrance of our enemies
/ 3 vengeance. 1t is wrong and hateful. IL
|you do not forget the wrong you cherish
hate and only await an opportunity to
return the wrong. Gods method is to
forgive and forget. His motive for love is
In himself. His forgiveness Is disinter-
|osted; ours is selfish. 1T is in His nature;
|1t Is not In our nature. This is Gods
|method of being perfect.
A low condition OF faculty is that which
must be solicited outside.
The true preacher cannot be sup
|pressed. He will preach everywhere and
|nt all times. 1t is in him. 1t is sponta-
|neous. 1t Is with him as with true poet.
His songs are spontaneous. IL labored
they have not the poetic fire. The la
bored sermon has not the divine fire. So
|lt IL with the good natured person. II
their good nature Is part of them IL will
be spontaneous and genuine.
Thus the reason of the steady flow of
Gods goodness is because it is in him. 1t
= spontaneous and incxhaustable. 1t
lows forever from an unfailing fountain.
Stop the flow of love out of a mans
heart and the day OF his perfection Is past.
He Is dead to all spiritual ascendency.
Love often saves by infiicting pain.
khe mother Is often obliged to chasten
her child that it may be kept from the
path Of error. Leave your child for God
10 take care of and make no effort to
Iuide it's footsteps yourself and do you
<hink God will bless you.
Gods love must be utilized. 1t is in
ended for you and God expects you to
|nse It. We may wander in sin far from
Bod, but how gladly he will take us back
yhen we make up our minds to accept
hh love. We have but TO repent and he
EiI1 forgive. Weneed only come back to
him.
Dr. Webb will leave for his new PASTOR

lyre Of Biddeford, Me-, is spoken of as

FOOLED THE pARsoN.
But the Blank Papers May Get Dan
chey Into Serious Trouble.

PoRTcHrsTER, n. Y, Dec 4. If Harri
son f. Danchey, of this village, aad not
given the officiating minirter blank
piece of paper sealed IN an envelope In lieu
of a marriage fee, he probably would not
now be talked OF in Portchester as biga-
mist with three wives.
Rev. w. w. Wilson, d. D., pastor OF the
Somerfield N. 4. Church, who is said to
have been imposed upon by Danchey,
0sarriea the latter recently to his alleged
third wife, who made her frat appearance
in Portchester few months ago. She is
a plump, attractive woman, and is known
as q snake charmer from a New York
dime museum.
At the parsonage Danchey said he was
81 years of age, a carpenter by trade and
had never been NJ arried before. The bride
gave her name as Mrs. Holly, and said
she was n widow.
After the ceremo ony Danchey handed the
minister an envelope, which when opened
later was found to contain blank pisco
of paper. The minister, out ef curiosity,
began an investigation and learned that
young woman who claimed to be Dan.
chey's second wife was living at the board
ing house of Amasa Conovsr, on North
Main street
She said her maiden name was MAUD
Owens, and that she came TO Portchcster
from Norwalk, Conn, about three years
ago, and that Danchey came from Nor
walk about the same time. she said he
married Danchey ard had a child b n.
She said she lived with Dancheyu he
learned he had another wife living In Dan.
bury, Conn.
Upon further investigation the minister
learned that after Maud Owens left him
Danchey paid attentions to Miss Finnan,
who is alleged TO be of weak intellect and
who is heir~ss to considerable property
left her by her parents. Father Waters,
pastor Of the Catholic church. was instru.
mental in breaking of the match.
A reporter called on Maud Owens. She
said she married Dancher three years ago,
not knowing that he already had wife in
Connecticut, and that she bore him one
child.
She said he was a worthless, good.for-
nothing fellow, and while she lived with
him he contributed little or nothing TO the
support OF herself and child.
She said tue reason she did not prosecute
him for bizamy was because she didn't
want any notorety IN the courts.
