NOT MANUFACTURING,

The highest judicial tribune of Mary
land has decided, on appeal, thatan electric
light company is not a manufacturing in
duStry, in the sense that it is entitled to
| immunity from municipal taxation, where
that benefit has been accorded to manu-
featuring plants" The lower court had
held that such corporation does not
manufacture, but rather is an agency for
the distribution OF something already in
existence. The court Of appeals lodged
the full force of this position, but found as
above.
III the appeal ha been to The Times, the
finding might have been different. The
defendant corporation did not pretend to be
engagedin manufacturing electricity which
certainly is something already in exist
ence, but in using that element as a raw
material i'm the manufacture of its higher
product, light. The latter did not exist
concretely until it was produced by in
dustrial means and appliances from the
former. As well might one hold that since
heat and light are potentialities latent in
coal, a gas company does not manufacture
when it roasts the coal and produces from
it not only our standardillunlinan Mt but, in
Cidentally, noXious or deletcrious compo-
ncnts, which reduce the visible candle
pow er, but make the Indicator on the meter
go around in a profitable manner. The

the library, the child said: Have YOU

was forced TO admit that his library lacked
that interesting volume.
The quest.oaer looked grieved, but said

Reflections of a Bacbelor.

As soon as a man shows that he knows
much about women a girl begins to think
he has a past.
There never lived an old maid who
didn't believe that she could have got
married If she had wanted to.
Just because a woman cries hardest at
another woman's funeral is no sign that
she was her dearest friend.
Some wellmeaning people go through
life as badly misunderstood as cross
eyed girl under the mistletoe.

When Carlyle was child he once saved
in broken teacup three half-pence, a
sum which may well have seemed a small
fortune in his thrifty Scotch home. One
day, however, an old beggar with an in
Jured arm came to the door and the small
Thomas generously gave him his whole
hoard. Speaking of the incident later in
life Carlyle used to say: THE feeling of
happiness was most intense / would
give a hundred pounds now to have that
sensation for one moment back again.''
Laurence Hutton, in the "reminiscences
of his boyhood now running in st. Nicholas,
gives his earliest attempt at verse-mak-
ing, which, he says, was found the other
day in an old desk carefully preserved by
an aunt:
Three little kittens OF our old cat
Were benied this day in this grassplat
They came TO there deth in an old water
pale,
And after losing there breth
They were pulled out by the tale.

And were put in the grave by

to promote these interests, should
appeal as strongly as ever to the

that four millions of chattel
slaves were freed by the late war,
but opportunities for the great
mass of the American people to
MAINTAIN freedom and indepen

them by the manipulation of the
worlds money through a conspi-
racy the most infamous of all the
ages which the Brooklyn Eagle
endorses and advocates.
During all the history Of the
United States there were chance
tor young men and women to
marry, make homes, raise fami-
hes, and be independent. Those
times are gone, and in tho place

dental few who make some dis
covery out of the usual order of
business. The condition Of the
laboring masses Of Europe has
not been worse at any time for
the last fifty years than il is to-
day. Loaded down sby noun

vast armies to suppress and de-
stroy liberty, millions groan un-

any other organ of gold monop-
oily to point to single country

prosperous condition TO day as
they were twenty years ago. The
Brooklyn Eagle is contending
that this world was made for
bondholders and money changers

contends let it not make a false
