scription of their savage customs less than 80
years ago i'll STRAIT ng their sacerdotal rites and
their mode of living gradually leading up to
scenes in the now comparatively civilized com

preachers and others, illustrating the change
which had come since the Introduction OF hris-
tiantv among these people, who but compare
lively few years o lived in ignorance and bar

He then showed some of the greatest wonders
of natu e, such as the famous mountains the
Three Brothel s. in California, Niagara Falls, etc

some of mans greatest achievements. A great
| number of views Of the most famous cathrdrals
| in Europe were shown, followed bv a number of

James Langley, alias "Doc" Langley,
one of the most notorious confidence men
in the country, was convicted In the supe-
ror criminal court in Boston Saturday be-
fore Judge Wardwel on three counts for
obtaining money under false pretences. He
will be sentenced later. Langley had OBJ
tanned $500 from James II. Clifford, Lo-
throp Wilder and Charles II. Goodwin
about year ago in connection with the
National Contract & Supply company, of
which Langley claimed to be vice-president
and treasurer. The concern was to manu-
facture undertakers' supplies 1t also had
a burial contract scheme, whereby person
paid a small sum each month and provided
for his own burial. The company was or
ganized under the laws of Vermont, and
the letter heads stated that the factory was
in Brattleboro, but the concern has never
done business here, although there were
some negotiations for the lease and pur-
chase of the Centreville factory.
Mr.. Clifford paid $500 and Messrs.
Wilder and Goodwin $500 each to Langley
and in return received shares of STOCK in
the company. Clifford was to be the gen
eral New England agent of the concern and
Wilder was to have the Rhode Island
agency and Goodwin was given all the ter
rtory north of the New York Central rail.
road. They learned, however, that they
had been the victims of false representa-
tions on the part of Langley and took legal
means to have him punished. Charges
against him were brought in the Boston
I'll. A..
continuance of the case was granted.
Meantime Langley left the state, but was
arrested at Hartford, Conn, and taken
back to Boston

A DISAPPOINTING FINISH
The Basket Bali Game Against the

The Basket Ball Game Against the
in Wrangle.
The basket ball game Wednesday night had a
disappointing ending, and the spectators filed out
Of the armory Reluctantly, not knowing which
team had won, while the players and officials
were cl)seted attempting to explain plays and
rules The visitors clearly outplayed the locals
in the first half the score standing 6 to l. Brat
tleboro's one score was made by DunlevN, while
Dunstrow and kossley made baskets from field,
and RosSl and W. Barton each one from foul.
Rossley's throw from field was lucky play, the
bail being tossed from the centre of the armory
high into air, but IL landed squarely in the has
ket Bratteboro went in to win in the second
half, and when - minutes Of the half had been
played the score was TO in Thompsonve' $
favor. w. Barton was knocked out for two
or three minutes. After play was resumed
Thompsonv lie made another basket from field
and Brattleboro one from foul With less than a
minute more TO play a Misunderstanding took
place over a call for time on Thumpsonviles
part, and Referee Estey ordered the game to
proceed. The Thompsonville men stopped
pla, ing and in the last 30 seconds the Bratteboro
players, unopposed, tossed the hall into the has
ket twice. Time was called, with the score IL to
10 in Brattleboro's favor. A discussion over the
point involved satisfied most Il the players that
time ought 70 have been called. and the game
was given to Thompsonville, the score being 10 To

IMMIGRATION RESTRICTION.

During the last four or five years
immigration to this country has not
been considerable but lately, 1t is
claimed, 1t has again commenced to IN
crease The fact adds interest to the
restriction bill now before Congress
In many quarters it has been felt
for long time that some measure is
needed that will close our shores to
some extent to the surplus population
of the world. During the last session
of Congress, the immigration law was
one of the leading topics of discus
sion, and 1t was agreed that an educa-
tional test was needed; that people un-
able to read and write some language
ought to be excluded from the United
States. The measure stranded on the
Corliss amendment, which contem-
plated the exclusion of Canadian la
borers on the border from employment
on the United States side of the line.
An effort will now be made to pass the
law with the educational test and with
out the Corllss amendment Its effect
will be chiefly to restrict immigration
from the countries of southern Europe
where, as is well known, the illiteracy
of the people is greatest.
The increase of population in the
United States has been enormous dur
ing the past fifty years. In 1s47 the pop
ulation was twenty-seven and half
millions and now it Is nearly IL not
quite seventy millions. Yet this rapid
growth need not cause any particular
alarm. for there is plenty of room in
| this vast country for many years to
come. In England, for instance, there
are $40 inhabitants to the square mile.
while in the United States there are as
yet only IS. The state of Texas alone
is equal in area to France, Great
Britain and Germany; these countries
| find room for about 126,000000 inhabi-
tants, while Texas has only two mil
| lions.
But while the question of over-popu-
lation does not seem to be of immediate
concern. 1t is high time that some dis
erection should be exercised in regard to
the class and quality of immigrants
seeking our shores. Manfestly 1t is
the criminals and the physically dis
abled persons,rather than the illiterate
that should he excluded. Among the
latter sometimes are found the sturdy
home-builders so necessary for the
development of the countrys latent re-
sources, while from the former are re-
cruited the enemies to and charges
