dashed in and passed a law forbidding
the wearing by public school teachers

moral law. The Pennsylvania woman,
evidently moved by fears of the here

even then it does not appear that she

A religious association in Michigan has
petitioned Governor Rich TO have the
State troops observe the Sabbath and TO
permit no drills or military exhibitions
on that day. Whether it would have
him refuse to call the militia out to
quell a riot or defend State property on
Sunday is not stated. The religious ele-
ment Of civilization which breaches the
doctrine of the Man of Peace finds a
good many difficulties in the way of adj
justing itself to the war element which
constitutes a very important part of
the same civilization.

1t is unfortunate that Governor Mat

should suspect that the Democratic
members of the Supreme Court made the
consideration of the constitutionality Of

unfortunate because it shows the low es-

remarks at the Carlisle reception in

has increased its growing public dc Ut to

Wateryille needs new theatre. No
one can appreciate this fact better than
the two couples of our young people who
drove to Augusta to attend "a Prince
Pro Tem," Monday evening. They
started for good time, but ill luck at

hauled the double sleigh was frisky one,
and three times were the young ladies and
gentlemen spilled in the snow. This
delayed the arrival at Augusta so long
that to get tea before the curtain went
up, was out of the question. None could
be gotten after the show, SO a telegram
was sent to hurry to have hot stcws
ready when the party arrived here on their
return. They drove up few minutes
before the stew was ready, and while
waiting, the horses took fright and ran
away, badly smashing things in general.
One of the ladies, who lives far down
town, was sent home by an express team
the others walked. As it was time
in the morning when most people were
asleep, all four agreed to keep quiet and
assure every one who inquired that they
