Judge CroSscitD's Charge.
Neither the torch OF the incendiary nor
the weapon of the iusurrectionist nor the
inflamed tongue Of him who incites to fire
and sword is the instrument to bring
about reforms. To the mind of the Amer
ican people, to the calm, dispassionate,
sympathetic Judgment Of the race that is
not afraid to face deep changes and re-
sponsibilities, there has, as yet, been no
appeal. Men who appear rs the champions
OF great changes must first submit them
to Observation-Disclosures that reaches not
simply the parties interested, but the
wider circles of society, and must be
patient as well "a perseveriug until the
public intelligence has been reached and a
public Judgment made up. An appeal to
force before that hour Is crime not only
against the government OF existing laws,
but against tue cause itself. for what man
of intelligence supposes that any settle
meut will abide which is induced under
the light of the torch or the shadow Of an
overpowering threais

MINOOKA.

The school directors Of Lackawanna
township decided at a recent meeting
to erect school house in Minooka at
cost of $4,000, and they adopted the
plans draughted by Professor l. H Da-
vey, principal of the Stark's Patch
school. Mr.. Davey is also an architect.
The taxpayers of the rest of the town

that it is an imposition on them thus
to burden them with heavy tsxes

BARRING ANRoNyMoUs FIGHTERS.
EdslOn ErpreSS.

Eds'On Express.
There is growing sentiment among
newspapers against publishing communi-
cations other than over the real names Of
the writers. The Allentown Leader,
SCRANTON TRIBUNE, Scranton Truth and
Williamsport Times have adopted this
rule. Writers of communications who hide
behind a nom -de.plume are apt to become
personal and abusive. The fact that
they strike man in the dark does not
cause them any compunction; nor does the
responsibility of the newspaper for their
work give them any concern. To throw
out all communications which the writer's
will not consent to have published over
their names might now and then prevent
the appearance Of an article promotive of
public good, but this loss would be fully
compensated by the barring out OF class
Of men who have no respect for decent
journalism and who show no regard for
the honor that the world would have exist
between man and man.

FUNERAL REFORM.
The Poor Are Apt to Think Display
Necessary.

From the Chicago Times.
The incident reported recently in which
a New York man of moderate means left
special Instructions in his will that less
than so should be spent on his funeral is
not without precedent. To many people the
funeral-reform idea has an almost religious
significance, and II is generally found that
those who favor rigid economy in the per-
Torrance of the last offices are those who
could the most easily afford reasonable eX-
penditure or even an extravaganza outlay.
The eXpression"decentb burial has special
meaning among the poor and collectors for
a fund to save a neighbor from interment
in the potter's field seldom leaves a house
on the block without at least a small con-
tribution. In st. Louis the funeral-fund
collecting idea prevails very generally
among the colored people. In the health
commissioners office at the city hall a
niue folded and soiled burial certificate is
recognized as dealing with deceased col
ored citizen before 1t is handled Very
rarely does a colored corpse have TO be
buried by the city, and the process of rails
ing burial fund, although often slow and
tedious, is invariably successful.
Excessively cheap and curious funerals
have occurred in nearly all states and even
countries. According to the authorities on
the subject, the record for an inexpensive
funeral is held by a Virginian, who dis
posed of his vife's remains at a cost or put
a few cents, although he observed all the
fOrmalities, secured the services OF min
lister and entertained the mourners. lie
was handy with his tools and made a pas
sable coffin out of lumber on the premises.
Then he obtained permission to dig a grave
himself i'm the little country churchyard
and persuaded the minister to read the
service without fee. The neighbors acted
as pallbearers, and their wagons and his
conveyed the party to the graveyard. On
the return to the house he invited the
crowd TO stop to supper, and then getting
out the family Bible read chapter after
chapter until one after another slipped
20 Ne t.zsIlr II.
leaving very few guests to be entertained.
The man was not poor by any means nor
as he invariably stingy. But he regarded
the feat of burying his wife cheaply as 4
memorable one, and when discussing it
always asked his listeners how the late
lamented was injured by the economy.
