THE RIFLE IN SCHOOLS.

The Bible-i n-the-s schools question has been agitating some of the Pennsylva- nians, and Judge Edwards, who has been called on for his opinion, has just de- livered it in Scranton. He says there is nothing in the laws of Pennsylvania to prevent the reading of the Bible in pub lie schools. Not only is it allowed, the judge says, but it may even be com mended from a standpoint which does not involve the question of sectarian instruction nor the rights of conscience Going a little way on the ground held by advocates of religious instruction in the schools, Judge Edwards says: An medication of moral principles is in complete. And why cannot the com mon precepts of morality be taught by the reading of the Bible better than in any other way? Furthermore there is much in the Bible which cannot justly be characterized as sectarian. There can be no valid objection to the use of such matter in the secular instruction of the pupils. Much of 1t has great his- torical and literary value which may be utilized without violating the consti- tutional prohibition. It may also be used to inculcate good morals-that is, our duties to each other-which may and ought to be inculcated by the dis trict schools. No more complete code of morals exists than is contained in the New Testament, which reaffirms and emphasizes the moral obligations laid down in the ten commandments.
 This is true and sensible. The trou- ble is that many of those who are dis turbed by this question are so made and moulded that they can't see the truth and the sense

MARLBOROUGH AT THE BATTLE
 OF BLENHEIM.

Marlborough resembled Hannibal in his use of cavalry for the deciding stroke in a great battle, and at Blen- helm he had no less than 5000 horses, a long line of nodding plumes and gleaming swords, ready to launch on Tallard's center. Behind were steady battalions of infantry, under the cover of whose fire the horsemen might re- form if the attack failed. In front was the long slope, soft with grass and elas- tic to the stroke of the galloping hoofs, an ideal field for great cavalry charge. Tallard had drawn up his cav airy in two lines, and had interlaced them with batteries of artillery and squares of infantry. These were drawn up slightly below the crest of the ridge, so as to exactly cover the summit with their fire.
 At o'clock Marlborough launched the great attack. Slowly at first, but gathering momentum as they advanc- ed, the long lines of horsemen came on. The air was full of the clangor of scab- bard on stirrup; the squadrons were

Paris is to be perfect paradise in 1900, if energetic officials and active committees carry out their present good intentions, Besides protection for the pedestrian, in the form of new traffic regulations, the authorities are deter mined to provide as well for the aes- thetic proclivities of the foot passenger. Those who drive cycles, or ply motor cars, will of course be- too intent on conforming each one to his own par ticular portion of the new rules to look al the novel decoration of the streets These are in the future to be joy for ever. Kiosks, newspaper booths, omni- bus offices, all the various small edif1ces which take up the pavement in Paris thoroughfares, are to be designed on new and artistic lines. The lamp posts are to be aesthetic. hoardings are to be tastefully decorated, and a new poster craze Is likely to ensue Pri- vate persons will be called upon to CO., operate for the general good Me de Selves, prefect of the Seine department, has already repeated the rules formally nacting that frontages of houses on the street should form a perfectly even line, and it is exen expected that Paris will eventually assume the picturesquely varied appearance of London. At times of special public rejoicing, also, the artistic decorator will have his say Fresh designs for poles, fagstaffs and colored lanterns are being prepared, with view to the fetes which will be held on every possible occasion in the year of the exhibition Private perSons will likewise be asked to put flowers in their balconies, the baroness of which surprises Londoners who visit here. All these artistic reforms are being pro- jected by one of the committee for the exhibition, that which Is intrusted With the department of Movable Decoration and Upholstery Work.

PATENT MEDICINE CONSUMERS.
 You have heard of opium fiends and all the other so-called fiends who buy narcotics or poisons and dose them selves with them'' said the druggist, but did you ever know there was a class of all-around drug fiends? I mean,' continued the druggist, the persons who make a habit of sampling all the new patent medicines as they come on the market, and also think up combinations of their own. Every long established druggist has a score of such customers. It is like this: A man will come in, take a stroll around the store, looking at the sponges and tooth brush es in a vacant way, and then say, as if the thought had just occurred to him: Say, I hear there's a new remedy for the liver I've forgot the name-begins with a B. I get down the bottle, he asks me if it is any good, and I reply that it has a great hany testimonials, and he walks off with it. The next week he comes in and buys bottle of something for the kidneys, and the next week a sovereign remedy for con- sumption.
 Now, this man is only one in twenty or more, and some of them bring in the most remarkable homemade prescrip- tions-the Lord knows where they get them-and I fill them, although I can't imagine what ailn1ent they can be good for. Do I ever remonstrate with these fiends? Not now; I used to talk to them mildly in my early days, but l only sent them to another store, so l quit. No: I don't think it does them any particular harm. Like that an- cient king who fed on poisons until he got immune, these iends are impervi- ous to drugs, and the only danger in the practice is that they may some day become really i'll and then ordinary rem edies will have no effect on them. If the physician they call in has no knowl- edge of their habit his prescriptions will have no more effect than so much wa ."-Chicago Times-Herald.

really no little maid should be without Bodice and skirt all one of denim are brightly trimmed with scarlet or white braid. Under the skirt pair of knick- erbockers of denim to match goes right on over the usual underwear. The long stockings snugly gartered extend above the kickerbockers. In such a rig a lit- tie girl is not liable to catch cold from sitting on the grass, she has all the freedom of movement allowed boy, and need neither remember to keep her skirts down, nor fear letting them get in the dirt. Youngsters have a lot better time these days than they used, and ara better for 1t.
 Mothers of tots are now using for dress trimming, and employing it very freely, the very red and green plaid that made tiny boys and girls dresses twenty years ago. The stuff Is richer, naturally, as such of employment of plaids is a stylish wrinkle, and the goods thus trimmed is usually of fine quality. In the dress of this type shown here, the plaid was silk and the dress goods was very fine quality of dark green cheviot Red cord loops crossed the plaid portions, which ap- peared even on the sleeves. Those of bodice fronts and skirt ran together in the manner that six months ago would have led to the classification princess effect. So many of these pretences were worn, however, some of them not at all deceptive, that princess copying is not suggested by this gown.

just stretching themselves out into a gallop, as they reached the summit of the ridge, when they were smitten by the fire of the French infantry and ar tlllery. So deadly and close was the Yolley that the leading squadrons went down before it, and for few wild min utes, under the canopy of whirling smoke, Marlborough's horsemen were Tn fierce confusion. That was the mo- ment for counterstroke. Tallard saw 1t, and gave the word to his cavalry to charge. They were more numerous than the British, yet they faltered. "I saw an instant, wrote the unfortunate Tal- lard afterWard, lin which the battle was gained if" his cavalry in brief, had charged. But it failed to charge. The moment of possible victory vanish ed, and over the crest, with bent heads and Wind-blown crests, the gleam of thousand swords, and the thunder of innumerable galloping hoofs, came the British cavalry.
 Tallard's center was broken as with the stroke of a thunderbolt His in- fantry was swept into ruin his cavalry hurled into disordered flight and his army fairly cut in twain. His left wing fell back, fighting desperately; but his right, the elite of his army, was hopelessly shut up in Blenheim itself As night fell Marlborough drew his lines closely round the village. Webb, with the queens regiment, blocked one avenue of escape, a cavalry force-one regiment of which consisted of Scotch Greys-guarded the other. The French general in command of Blenheim, be- lieving the situation to be desperate, ignobly abandoned his men and tried to swim his horse across the Danube, and was very properly drowned in the attempt.
 For time the fight round Blenheim was furious. Part of the village took fire, and in the light of the red flames Frenchmen and Englishmen fought hand to hand with fiery valor. But with the center destroyed and the left wing in full retreat, the condition of Tallard's right, shut up in Blenheim, was hopeless, and II GOO French infan- try laid down their arms as prisoners of war. The great Branch army, 60000 strong, composed in the main of veter- ans and familiar with victory, practi- cally ceased to exist.
 That battle changed the course of his tory. It destroyed the dream of uni versal empire which Louis XIV. had cherished so long; it secured for the Anglo-Saxon race that opportunity of free development which has made the empire of to-day possible.-Cornhill Magazine.

may be estimated by thousands. In support of this we quote his own words: You can hardly calculate" said he, "the good that a ride into the country does a baby which is fairly prostrated with heat. It is possible to find along the lines of the electric rall- roads places where the temperature is twenty degrees lower than in town, The cool, fresh breeze after a stlfling hot day in a close room in town means a new lease of life for child. won der that some fresh air society doesn't charter car on some of the lines and reserve it in the evenings for mothers with slckly little children, letting them ride free. I don't know of any char ity that would be cheaper and I don't knoW of any that would do more good here in Washington, where flve-cent ticket puts within reach of everybody a luxury our grandfathers couldn't have had for million dollars"
 The. trolley system in Philadelphia has led to a notable night migration this summer. People have been leav- ing their homes in the heated city at about 10 o'clock at night, and in about an hour they have reached a spot in the Fox Chase woods where there was a difference of temperature of about ten degrees. Women and children went as we'll as men, and it was a novel sight to see hundreds of them camped about in the woods like so many trav- cling bands of gypsies. Their only bag gage was a pillow and covering of some kind. Fox Chase was free from mosquitoes and other insects which generally make outdoor life uncom- fortable in summer. After sleeping or resting in the woods for several hours they returned to the city and engaged in their days labor.
 There is million times more life than death in the trolley. Indeed, it is | no longer deadly in most places. And New Haven is especially favored by the careful and safe management of the systems.

Among the curious incidents of the war is the good fortune of the owners of the schooner Ida c. Southard. This vessel was chartered February 26, be- fore the war opened, to carry 1,161 tons of coal from Philadelphia to St, Thom- as, at the price of $2 ton. The coal States squadron. The schooner arriv- ed at St. Thomas after the war broke out. The Danish authorities-very strict in observing neutrality-would not allow the vessel to discharge cargo into our ships of war, nor leave the port with the coal, holding that it was contraband of war. The schooner in consequence lay at anchor in the har- Dor, and her owners began to charge the government demurrage at the rate of $100 a day. Knowing that they would be held in the harbor indefinite ly as long as the war lasted the cap tain and crew made themselves com fortable A division of the men took turns in keeping ship. The rest lived on shore with the captain in an old one-story house, shadowed by tropical verdure and cooled by the breeze which blows perpetually from the sea. The schooner is now at home Uncle Sam has paid the $15,O00 demurrage and has not even got the fuel that was sold to other parties when the war closed.

 but there hasn't been much said and written about it's health-giving quality.
 What a blessing the trolley cars of New Haven and other cities have been during the last two months. How many they have soothed and even saved. The managers of the Fresh Air Fund in New Haven have very wisely devoted a part of their money to troll ley rides for the poor and weak, and the railroad companies have been gen. erous in their aid.

The American Machinist, formerly a high-protection advocate, said in a re- cent issue: We have abundent evil dence from numerous interviews with machinery makers to show that a new light is breaking upon them regarding the effects of our traditional position on the tariff question, and we shall be very much surprised if the near future does not see heavy pressure brought to bear upon congress by the machinery interests looking toward action which will equalize these matters. The object of protective tariff is supposed to be the "protection of infant industries;" but when an industry has so far out grown it's swaddling clothes as to be able to compete successfully with for eign producers in their home markets it is fair to ask what connection the duties have with their original purpose; and when the only effect is to excite retaliation and bring about counter du- ties abroad it is certainly hard to see how any one can defend them.
