meant more than prohibition or total alb
stinence. It meant trained will, an
obedient spirit and life pure and peace
able. Such life was secure through
teaching, and hence the ultimate aim of
all education should be the development
of character. 0
She then went on to show that indus
trial training is both formative and pre-
yentive. The subject was one of vast
Importance, and every worker for moral
reform should look into 1t carefully. A
boy or girl with plenty to do, and the
requisite skill for doing it, would be
most likely to keep out Of mischief and
out of bad ways. To turn forth young
men fresh from the grammar and high
schools without any knowledge of how
to employ their hands was simply to add
taem to the large army of ignorant and
unskilled persons that infest our large
cities.n

1t is reported from London that two
new standing orders are soon to be pro-
posed by the government for the guild
ance of business in the House of Com
mons. The purpose of these orders is to
give the chairman of the committee of
the whole the power to quash irrelevant
obstructive amendments. This is similar
to the power given the speaker of the
House of Representatives at Washington
by the rules of the 51st Congress to re-
fuse to entertain diliatory motions. It
is not improbable that those in charge OF
the business of the House of Commons
had in mind the American precedent in
proposing their standing orders.

The exclusion of Miss Lizzie Borden
testimony at the inquest from the pres
emit trial seems to be another point
gained for the defence. 1t has been be-
lieved generally, if not definitely an
nouneed, that at the inquest Miss Bor-
den made some damaging admissions or
statements. 1t is to be remembered
that at that time she had just been ar
rested, that she was presumably still
laboring under the excitement which
such tragedy could not fail to cause in
any family, and furthermore that she
was taken alone and without counsel be-
fore a secret tribunal where she was
questioned persistently by. officials an
xious to entangle her. The prosecution
seem to have relied considerably upon
this testimony and it's exclusion cannot
but relieve the prisoner of many en-
barrassments. Presuming that she is in
nocent, there might be. in such a
report of testimony several things
which would have to be explained;
and explanations must always be
more or less dangerous. Presum-
ing that she is guilty it is very evil
dent that the ruling must be Of great adj
vantage to her. OF her guilt or inno-
cence it would be folly to express an
opinion at this stage Of the trial and at
this distance. But it may be said that
the chances of convicting her seem to
have materially diminished. The police
of Fall River seem to have, approached
the case with the idea that Lizzie Borden
undoubtedly was the murderer; and in
accordance with that plan Of approach,
to have gone at their work Of collecting
the facts. Such methods may do very
well for making out cases before inquests
and in the newspapers; but in the fair
field of court room, and in the presence
of a defending lawyer like George d.
Robinson, theories must have the proper
facts back of them or they go down.

One of the most important acts of the
Massachusetts legislature before, it
adjourned was the passage of the ely
ford BILL" an act intended to prevent the
gas company of Boston from piling up a
large surplus by charging the consumers
higher price than necessary for gas.
The author of this bill, Representative
Lyford, of Springfield, is, by the way, la
native of Maine, son Of the late Prof.
Lyford, of Waterville. The Boston gas
monopoly, in order to conceal their i'm
mense surplus, had charged against their
assets fictitious obligation of $4,50O,-
900 ostensibly due to New Jersey cor
poration. The bill which Mr.. Lyford
proposed and championed provides that
the charter of the gas company shall be
null and void after December LIST next,
unless the fictitious obligation shall be
cancelled. 1t is expected that the COM
pany will cancel the obligation, and
thus leave the assets unencumbered
and in view of the gas com
mission, which has the power to order q
