A BREAK FOR LIBERTY.
Two Girls Escape From the Training
Home on Hill street.

Two Girls Escape From the Training &
Home on Hill Street.
Detectives and officers of the Society for
the Suppression of Vice are searching high
and low for two young girls who made
their escape on Saturday night from the
Girls Training Home, at 26 Hill street.
The girls are Lucy Inman, Is years of
age, and Maggie Smith, Is years of age.
Both are natives of Woodland, where their
parents who are well-to-do people, reside.
They left their homes last winter and
came to this City. officers came in search
of them, but had to return without find
ing them.
The Inman girl was found at 800 Grant
avenue and was threatened with arrest
unless she returned home. She consented
and took the train to Woodland, but left it
at the Sixteenth-street station, Oakland,
and returned to the City.
Both girls were arrested last week and
sent to the Girls Training Home. They
did not take kindly to the rigorous rules
of the institution and Saturday night
| about o'clock they succeeded in eluding
| the vigilance of the matron and escaped
| into the rear yard, without their hats or
shoes They had to climb board fence
eight feet high, and how they managed to
do so is wonder.
| As soon as their fight was discovered, a
| few minutes later, the police in the vicin-
ity were furnished with description OF
them, and every effort has been made
since then to recapture them, without sue
cess. They have succeeded In completely
covering their tracks.
1t was reported at police headquarters
yesterday morning that the Inman girl
had been at 300 Grant avenue Sunday
night, put when Detective Anthony went
there she had fed. Her father has been
telegraphed to for instructions, and if he
consents to a charge of vagrancy being
made against her when arrested she will
be sent up for six months.
The Smith girl has addressed note to
the Society for the Suppression of Vice,
in which she says: Cant you leave a
girl who is hurting nobody but herself
alone? don't want to go home, and il
Pm arrested Thousand times l won't
change my conduct"

About o'clock Daniel Freeman. a col

language and did not comprehend what

WHAT HOWISON TEACHES
The Berkeley Professor Tells
Presbyterians He Is
Orthodox.
Professor John Watson and Faith
Congregational Club Elects
Officers.

There was large audience at the Pres
byterian Ministerial Union yesterday
morning to hear Professor John Watson S
lecture. Although the professor of moral
philosophy from Queens College, Kings
ton, Ont, has been addressing the stu
dents of Berkeley for some time, yester-
days was his first lecture given before q
ministerial association of this City.
Professor Watson discussed the theories
| of Kant and his English critics, touching
also on the views held by Comte, Mill and
Spencer. Faith and reason were the
themes upon which he dwelt at length,
contrasting st. Anselmos motto: 81 be-
lieve in order to understand" with
Abelard's teaching, "You must under
stand in order 10 believe" The speaker
gave as his opinion that the modern idea
of faith is distortion of the original idea
of it held by early Christians. at was
originally light and intellectual love, but
It has come to be an acceptation of dog
mas, from which the life has gone out"
the deductions arrived at in the protes
sor's address being that faith is the highest
form of reason, and that idealistic philoso-
ply should be taught by the churches
Professor Howison of the University of
California was invited to address the
meeting and responded that he was glad
to have an opportunity of speaking before
representative Presbyterians. Your

| prepared to take his religious life on lines
which the senses cannot reach, is not truly

| young men of Berkeley hear from me. |
have been seeking an opportunity to say
1t to you."
Professor Howison concluded his re-
marks by giving various definitions of
| faith, which in the main agreed with those
already laid down by Professor Watson,
and by saying that be looked to see many
doctrines which have been accepted by
Christians, but which are not Christian,
dropped by the churches before long.
Rev. DR.. Mackenzie said at the conclusion
of the address that he should like to hear
further from the Berkeley professor and
know whether he believed sin to be fac
tor in human personality and forgiveness
factor in divine personality. Professor
Howison replied Immediately in the
affirmative to both questions.

Attractions of Courtship.

There was a cynical fellow in the
Middle Ages who, under the sarcas-
tic title "The Fifteen Joys of Mar
rage" wrote an elaborate descrip-
ton of fifteen woes, which were
likely, one or all, t o distress the
foolish mar who had slipped like a
fish into the great net Of matrimony.
1t is not probable, however, that his
little treatise turned a single man
from the error of his way. How
should it have, when the great
weight and authority of Mr.. Punch
have not been able in these DAYS to
make any appreciable difference in
the issue of marriage licenses? Yet
the genial philosophers advice, which
is an everlasting shame to Mrs. Judy
was perfectly decided. The truth
is, men will not take advice which
they do not want, no matter who
offers it. They know that all the
world loves them when they are
lovers, and SO vain creatures will 90
a-wooing. All the pretty business
of kneeliDg and sighing is becoming;
when a man is counting he is more
interesting han he has ever been or
ever will be again. Whether it be
Jocky who dons his Sunday coat to
propitiate his goddess of the hay-
field, or the fine gentleman who
swears at his valet for a speck of
dust when dressing for a certain inn
portant interview, he is worthy of
notice; and eve the frog, when he
will a-wooing 60, becomes a hero fit
for poetry. The uneasy period of
courtship tries the souls of men and
shows what stuff they are made of,
and therefore the of men of
of the fifteenth century when marry
ing or trying to marry indicate very
fairly the refinement of society at
that time.-Emily Baily Stone, in

The Virtue Of Self-ReIiance.

Something can be done by good laws;
more can be done by honest administra-
ton OF the laws; but most oil all can be
done by frowning resolutely upon the
preachers OF vague discomfort; and by
u~pholding the trne doctrine of s~elf-reli-
ance, self helps and seIf-mastery. This
doctrine sets forth many things. Among
them is the fact that though a man can
occasionally be helped when he stumbles,
yet that it is useless to try to carry him
when he will hot or cannot walk; and
worse than useless TO try to bring down
the work and reward of the thrifty and
intelligent TO the level OF the capacity of
the weak, the shiftless, and idle. 1t
further shows that the maudlin
Philanthrophist and the maudlin senti-
mentalist are almost as noxious as the
demagogue, and that it is even more
necessary to temper mercy with justice
than justice with mercy.
The worst lesson that can be taught
a man is to rely upon Others and to
whine over his sufferings. Iii an Amer
lean is to amount to anything he must
rely upon himself, and not upon the
state; he must take pride in his own
work, instead OF sitting idle to envy the
luck OF Others; he must face life with re-
solute courage, win victory il he can,
and accept defeat ii he must, without
seeking to place on his felIow-men a re-
sponsiblity which is not theirs.-From

Huron, Jan. 1st and End for the al

course and adjusting the Senatorial

TOPICS. *
The Senatorial Situation.

Huronite.
The election Of a United States
senator to succeed Kyle is not going
to be such a simple matter after all.
Now that the time draws nigh for
the assembling of the Legislature, the
different elements which joined forces
to accomplish the defeat of the re-
publican party in the state are split
ting in twain. The majority over
the republicans OF joint ballot is not
so large as to be dangerous, but an
der all the conditions so small as to
require the greatest political skill in
handling successfully. The old time
democrats have twelve members, who
it is said, have an understanding to
stand pat for the election of a simon
pure democrat. The silver republi-
cans have some ten members who are
anxious to have a free silver repub-
lican succeed Kyle. Then there is
the middle-o f-the-road pops who will
demand Louck's election. Kyle's
friends-and he has a goodly mum
Der, will 60 down in the ditch with
him to defeat sooner than see a friend
of Pettigrew's chosen. Then Judge
Plowman of the Hills, has the solid
backing of his home county. Taking
all these things into consideration
the election of a United States sena
tor promises to afford plenty Of
amusement TO a d~isinterested party.
The Huronite is anxious to see the
republican party keeps its hands
clean in this contest. Let the other
fellows elect whomsoever they
choose.

price of wheat up twenty cents a

he is, he then takes the reporters

them the letters on the subject he
had received. The thanks of the

The populists of this state will
have a splendid opportunity in their
control of the executive Office and
Legislature to put into practical
effect their boosted assurances of
wholesome Legislation if given con-
