Governor Millard's condition is better to-

office taken Monday was intended to be
secret, but it leaked out. The physicians
this morning reaffirm their intention of
taking him to Indio as soon as possible.
The administration of the oath of office
to Lieutenant Governor Mlllard was gem
orally looked upon by the public as
foolish, unnecessary and void move. Mr.
Millard now declares that he did not ap-
prove of it, and that he was led to be
sworn in by friends who were more anx-
iOus than discreet. An authority on law
stated to-day that as the Political CoGs
only provides for the administration Of
the oath in joint session of both houses,
the only remedy is to rush through a bill
in the next two days to amend Section
800 of the Political Code, to the extent
that the Legislature be empowered TO
delegate joint committee for the purpose
now sought.

Charity Of speech.

Charity Of speech is as divine thing
as charity of action. To judge no one
harshly, to misconceive no mans mo-
tives, to believe things are as they
seem to be until they are proved other
wise, to temper Judgment with mercy
surely this is quite as good as to,
build up churches, establish asylums
and found colleges. Unkind words do
% much harm rs unkind deeds. Many
. heart has been. wounded beyond
cure, many a reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little words
There is charity which consists in
withholding words, in keeping back
harsh judgments, in abstaining from
speech, if to speak is to condemn.
Such charity hears the tale of SANDER,
but does not repeat it; listens in si-
lence. but forbears comment: then
locks the unpleasant secret up in the
very depths of the heart. Silence can
still rumor; it is speech that keeps a
story alive and lends it vigor. Detroit
