any nearer the object of her pursuit now
than when she started. Her husband, Rev.
Charles Besant. brother of Walter Besant,
the novelist, turned her from bis doors in
1872 because she broke with the accepted
teachings of the Episcopal church of Eng
land. Then she wrote in the National Re-
form and other magazines, supporting her
aged mother in this way, and also by

National Secular Society, of which Charles
Bradlaugh, subsequently, a member Of Par

years of her lecturing she encountered some
rough scenes. The windows of the hall were
smashed by stones from the mob outside,

The Immense Area of Texas.

A printed statement that the western
states of America are becoming crowded II
disproved by figures that, through various
manipulations, tell most wonderful story
of the length and breadth of the maenifi.

states people who have not visited them
and travelled over them have no compre.
hensive idea Texas, the largest OF the
United States, has an area of 262, 290 square
miles. To the casual reader these figures
mean little; they show, however, that the
Lone Star State is more than "a times as
large as the state of Connecticut.
II IL were possible to run a railway train
from Connecticut to Texas and back in n

the state as there were before the train left
with its cargo, and IL each were placed upon

A case involving the ethics or perhaps
the law governing the legal profession has
arisen in central Maine. 1t grows out of a
suit in which the plaintiff consulted two Oh
three attorneys before placing her case in
the hands OF another to bring action there
on. While it was pending, some of these
unemployed attorneys made statements in
public places THAT they were consulted and
advised the lady that she had no case The
question now being mooted is an interest
ing one to the public at large
All attorneys of the court are under a
solemn oath to keep inviolate the secrets OF
their clients, and the plaintiff claims such
declarations in regard to pending case are
violations of duty in this respect, for which
damages would be given. The tongue bri.
die is an important article in the legal pro
fession, Notwithstanding it is "talking''
