ECHOES FROM WEST END.

The closing part Of the COM
mencement exercises of the West
End Female college at West End
church last night afforded much
pleasure to the faculty of the Col.
lege, the bright scholars and the.
whole choice audience, which was
particularly unanimous in giving
much praise to Rev. Fl. d. Knick-
erbocker's beautiful address, and to
the highly accomplished quartet,
Mrs. Pinson, Misses Stanley and
Josie Oge and Prof. Filler, instru-
mental piece for double pianos.
The weakness of the power now
furnished to the West End street
car line is causing delays and in
t~erferes often with schedule time.

been engaged for tonight for a
dance, when it will be appropriate
to dance "over the wayes.D

Created a Stir.

The Business Mems club resolu-
tions, inviting the next convention
of the State Christian Endeavorers,
in session at Fort Worth, to be
held in San Antonio, is creating
quite a stir among our liberal and
anti-prohibition citizens, many Of
whom are members of the club.
Several members announced last
evening that their designations had
been handed in, and that others
would follow today.

buggy, made in the north after
special specifications furnished by
himself. The buggy Is a pioneer
in some points, being the first one

bearing axles and having cushion
rubber tires. Mr.. Aug. Stsacke has
one with rubber tires, but it is not

CARSON RESIGNS.
Hoffman, Loses Another Game for
the Missionaries.

the Missionaries.
The San Antonio lovers Of base
ball will no doubt regret to learn
of the resignation Of Mr.. w. J. Gar
son as manager of the local team.
Mr.. Carson has worked faithfully
to put a winning team in this city,
and has succeeded very well under
the circumstances. He put an al
most entirely new team in this
city and the boys have made a
creditable showing since he had
the team. II 10 not yet known who
will succeed Mr.. Carson as mana
ger. Nh. Carson has been ap-
pointed umpire. He was first seen
here in that role and was pro-
nounced the best arbitrator that
ever appeared on a San Antonio
diamond.
The Missionaries played two
games at Houston yesterday and
were defeated in both. "Old Cy"
Mulkey pitched the first game and
Houston made eleven hits off him,
while the Missionaries made only
four error in the field. McCor-
mick, whom the Missionaries
knocked out Of the lot here, was on
the slab for the Swamp Angels,
and San Antonio found him for on
ly four hits, Houston made six er-
rors in the field. The score was 2
to 3. The game was lost by the
Missionaries failure to hit McCor-
mick, Of the four hits Sherry made
two and Abbott and Watkins one
each.
In the second game Hoffman,
who already lost two games by his
miserable work, was put in to pitch
and allowed Houston to make six
runs in the first inning. He was
pulled out Of the game at the close
OF this inning Abbott pitched.
Houston made even runs of Alb
bolt, making a total Of Ii, while
San Antonio made five runs, all of
which were scored in the third in
ming, four being earned runs. Har-
dy pitched for Houston and held
the Missionaries down to seven
hits.
In the one inning that Hoffman
pitched he gave two men bases on
balls and made two wild pitches.
There vas once a pitcher, named
Frank Hoffman, whom San Anto-
MO cranks we'll remember, but
this is not the one. His name is
Tom Hoffman, and joy will reign
supreme when we learn Of his re-
lease.
San Antonio also outfielded
Houston in the second game, max
ing only two errors to Houston's
three.
Lennon and Dresser, the pair of
midgets, played their usual good
game at second and short, Lem
mon accepting eleven out Of four
teen chances and Van only made
one error out Of fifteen chances.
The Galveston Austin game
broke up in a row yesterday and the
game was given to Galveston by 8
to 0. Dallas defeated Fort Worth
by s to l and Shreveport and Sher-
man had an exciting argument,
which resulted in favor Of Shreve-
port by a score of 6 to 8.
San Antonio opens at Galveston
today, for three games, Austin at
Houston, Sherman at Fort Worth
and Dallas at Shreveport.

Discussing IudivtdutI CUps.

BALTIMORE, March 13.-A resolution Of
fered at the Methodist conference to-day
charged as un-Chrstianlike the use of in
dividual cups at the Lords supper. brought
to their feet larg portion of delegates.
Rev. DR.. Richard Harcourt, pastor of
Grace church, Baltimore, which recently
adopted individual cups, sa i'd:
IL would like to know IN what particu-
lar the use of individual cups conflicts
with the Bible or Methodist dIscipline?"
"You can read tho discipline" Bishop
Andrews announced.
II decline to do to it," the bishop an
nounced.
There was a time" said DR.. Harcourt,
"when everything had to 60 clean shaven
like the bishop of this CONTAMINATION
there was no dipping of mustache into
a cup with perhaps tobacco juice on II !;
when there was no suffering from the
grip after having left the handkerchief at
home. l tell you, Mr.. President, that
from these causes, from the table OF the
Lord and His communion, l have admin
istered Stops"
Groans followed and cries of "stop,"
but Harcourt continues:
IF there were not SO many ladies pres
ent might give you, brethren, some facts,
but retain"
The bishop called DIR. Harcourt to order
and the question was finally laid on the
table.

The ex-queen has been sentenced TO

executive building, where she was placed
on the day of her arrest. just what is to
be done with her is a question which the
government has not yet answered. 1t

to assume an arbitrary attitude should
the ex-queen make a reasonable PROPOSE

have been entirely satisfactory to him.
Three or four times was the passage
of this bill attempted, but though 1t
was known that the governor earnestly
desired it the legislature failed to re-
spond.
For some reason or other the COVER
nor and the legislature seemed not to
hitch very well at any stage. On two
or three separate occasions, the repub-
lican majority in the senate deliber-
ately, premeditatedly and cold-blood-
eddy jumped on his excellency and
jumped hard. But If the charge sticks
that the late legislative assembly was
reckless and extravagant, the fact of
his having been at outs with it may
possibly be helpful to Richards should
he ask for a denomination.
Another gubernatorial possibility
from the republican side has been
mentioned in the name of the hand
some senator from Yellowstone,
Babcock. A man who without
much urging could be induced
to accept the republican nomination
for either governor or Lieutenant
governor is Senator Folsom of Meagher
county. With this end in view his
friends on the last day of the session
insisted on making him president pro
tempore of the senate during the inter-
mission between assemblies. For good
reasons it has been usual to elect
"hold-over" senator to this Office
during such intermission, but Folsom's
friends IN violation of what is obviously
public policy, put him through. Sena-
tor Folsom's term of Office will expire
one day after the election in 1896.
During the months of November and
December, 1896, therefore, there will
be no president pro tempore of the
senate and the CHI lin of the gubernl-
torial succession will be broken. But
a little thing like that makes no differ
ence to a Montana republican politi-
clan. There was plenty of other
gubernatorial timber in the last legis-
lature which may drift to the front
when the proper time comes-there is
Major Anderson of Gallatln, and there
is Mr.. Shropshire of Silver Bow, Mr..
Bennett of Granite, Senator Brown of
Beaverhead-the list might be ex-
tended indefinitely. The STANDARD
is reminded, however, that the repub-
lican state convention is something
like eighteen months off, and also tn At
possibly the republican party may have
something TO say about the nomina-
tion as well as the republican politi-
clans, and further that very likely the
people will kick over the whole repub-
lican ticket at the polls.

THURSDAY, MARCH IA. 1895.
They Need the Lash.

There is large class of men in
Butte and other Montana cities whom
the ordinary methods of the law do
not appear TO reach. The wretches
who exist on money provided by
women of shame are scandalously
numerous in the state of Montana.
They have long defied the law; to them
has been traced large part of the
crimes and offenses against the law.
Spasmodic efforts have been made TO
drive these infamous parasites from
their haunts; not city in Montana
has succeeded in getting rid of them.
Always without shame they braZenly
fight the efforts of the officers to inter-
fere with them. In instances they have
posed as martyrs, the subjects of OFF,
cial persecution. The day of election
finds this class of fellows always in the
foreground at the polls. The franchise
to them is convenient commodity;
there is not a cur i'll the crowd of them
but invites bids for his vote. They
steal, they commit murder, they are a
standing menace to the safety of the
community, they are a constant bill of
expense to the public. In shameful
disregard of public decency and in
open violation of public policy these
human vultures thrive in almost every
city of considerable size in Montana.
That this is true is not necessarily
the fault of the law officers. Butte
will furnish, on call, scores of instances
where one of these disreputable rascals
has been arrested, brought before the
court, and given the maximum penalty.
Almost without exception the woman
in the case settles the financial part of
the punishment; while Imprisonment
is escaped through legal jugglery
whereby appeals are taken and bonds
given. The law does not cover the
cases of this class of vermin. This
paper favors the whipping post for
this dangerous and particularly
offensive class of criminals The
great state of New York is
placing npon her statute books a law
establishing whipping as a penalty for
this class of crimes. This is an i'm
portant return to earlier methods. We
believe 1T is a commendable effort TO
make the punishment fit the crime A
defect in the New York law is that 1t
is assumed not TO comprehend wife
heaters in its scope There was fear
that this would be too radical step
at the beginning mistaken one, as
it seems to us, for here is class which
it is most desirable TO reach. Wife
beating is frequent offense and pc
culiarly aggravated in its cruelty to-
wards the helpless 1t breaks an oath
sworn when the marriage vow is
taken; it is an exhibition of brutality
for which the lash is the most fitting
method of punishment; it is a crime
exceeded by none in the calendar of
cowardice.
The whipping post is not an edify-
ing spectacle but il is about the proper
thing for certain classes of criminals.
The low vampires have too much of
their own way in these regions Brief
terms of Imprisonment too often only
serve as not unwelcome change in
their worthless lives; their victims pay
their fines; the lash vigorously applied
would make their mode of existence
more unpopular

Insurance and Murder.

1t has become an accepted duty of
men TO insure their lives in the inter-
ests of their families in cases where
provision has not been otherwise made
for their maintenance. 1t is a duty
too often sadly neglected, but in a
general way the average man accepts
the prime iple of life insurance for the
benefit of his family. The dispatches
from Toronto, Ontario, the other day,
gave the details of a shocking murder
which was committed in that city by
man named Iymas 1t is charged
that the fellow killed his wife's young
brother to obtain the twenty thousand
dollars life insurance which the boy
carried. This case has revived the
discussion as to the necessity of legis-
lation defining more accurately, than
is the case at present, in what in
stances it is permissible for a man to
insure the life of another person.
The law in England is that if man
lnsures the life of another in which he
has no direct interest, the amount is
company If it stands upon its rights;
and the practice is generally in accord
ance Herewith. As a matter of fact
he must have legal or financial inter-
est in the life of the insured party.
Originally the rule of law was Hide

sassins, and it was believed that in a
very short time they would succeed in
their nefarious plans. An English
betting man, in consideration of
trlflIng sum paid down, agreed TO pay
a large annuity during Napoleon S
life. After a short time he got tired
of his bargain and refused to pay fur
Their. and an action was brought to re-
cover arrears; but the court held that
it was against public policy, and the
action failed. Such annuitieS, where
the grantor had no genuine interest in
the life, might indirectly be the means
of attempts against 1t.
Complaints have been made that in
England, in some cases among the
very poor, the practice of insuring
children's lives for small sums in order
to cover funeral expenses has led TO
life being sacrificed, either purposely
or through negligence. The court
records of Montana take account of
instances where violent deaths have
occurred under circumstances leading
to the suspicion that murder was com
mitted in order to obtain life lnsur-
ance. AS general principle insur-
ance is most laudable and necessary

owing TO the complications OF our
lives. there are mul,itudinous cases
where 1t is not only permissible, but
even absolutely necessary 10 insure
the lives of others. But it would be

insurers 10 haveth life of the insured

the crime of murder. Few men could
