The author of " The Silence of Dean Maitland " is in no need of an
introduction to the reading public, and although in this charming idl of
love in the Devon countryside she has followed a different vein from that
of her former famous novel, her style has lost nothing of its power and
charm. This is a dainty and yet forceful piece of work. strongly stamped
with indwdualty-a book that cannot fail to meet with a warmw welcome.

Dartmouth College News.

In response to the call for volunteers
to serve in the war against Spain some
25 dartmouth iuen have enlisted and
probably many more will enlist. The
large part of this number enlisted at
Concord, some at Bradford, VT, and a
few at Lebanon, and will leave college
to-day or tomorrow. Nearly all of
them are seniors, who will without
doubt receive their diplomas upon leav-
ing. In regard to this Pres. Tucker said
that probably some universal agreement
will be reached among the colleges of the
eastern part OF the country and they
would very likely follow tht example OF
Princeton. About 800 students were
drilling on the campus Friday and Sat-
urday, and Monday some organization
was formed.

Anniversary Sermon.

Rev. DR.. A. H. Heath preached SER
mon in the North church last Sunday
evening to the members of Caledonia
Lodge, l. 0. o. F., and about rs men,
bers of the order attended in body.
DR.. Heath took his text from the words
found in Matt. 1878, "And ye are all
brethren" He emphasized the thought
of brotherhood as being the cardinal
principle not only of the order of Odd
Fellows but of the Christian church. He
said the doctrine of human brotherhood
was based on the idea of common leader
ship, "One is your Master" said Christ.
All men are equal in Gods eyes and God
is the leader.
Human brotherhood appears in the
fact that God demands the allegiance of
all men. This doctrine is the corner stone
of our national heritage. God must be
ticsm and all civil government must
keep its hands off from the soul that
stands before God.
God has provided for the salvation of
every human soul and the Bible is full of
invitations for all to be saved. In the
domain of spiritual lite man has but one
teacher, God, and but one creed, the
Bible.
In closing DR.. Heath referred very pa
trioticaIly to the war now in progress
and predicted final triumph for the ma
tion who was striving to help their starv-
ing and liberty-loving brethren in Cuba.
The musical part of the service was
quite elaborate and consisted OF an an
them by the double quartette, song by
the male quartette and Mrs. Hazen and
a fine bass solo by c. B. Shaw OF Chicago.
The audience sung "Amerlca" as the
closing hymn.

homes provided for them. Mr.. Wright re-
lated curious story. A year or two ago
the board found a home for pretty girl
of about fifteen in the northern part of
the State. The girl had been with the fam
lily but short time when a letter was re-
ceived by the board that she was about to
leave her benefactors in spite of their pro-
test. 1t was deemed advisable by the boaro
to send after the girl rather than permit
her to run off. Agent Wright was at once
sent after the child, with instructions to
bring her to this city.
The girl expressed q Willingness to ac-
company the agent back TO Indianapolis.
They started in company with the father
in-law of the man at whose home the girl
had been staying The father-in-law ac-
miles south and then left the train. Wright
brought the girl on to indianapolis. On the
way here he informed her that she was to
be placed in one of the converts of this
city. but promised that if she was a good
girl she would not have to stay there long.
The girl was put in the convent, but her
conduct was exemplary and she was re-
moved within day or two. A week later
Wright received letter from the head of
the family where the girl had been living
in the northern part of the State. He wrote
in great distress of mind, to the effect that
the newspapers in his neighborhood were
full Of thrilling accounts of how an orphan
girl which he had in his home had been
turned over to a Roman Catholic priest,
and that the latter had taken her away.
The newspapers, he said, told how the girl
and the priest had changed cars at a GER
tain Indiana town, and that the apparent
distress of the girl had attracted crowd
of five hundred people about the railroad
station According to his letter. the report
went on to say that the girl fell on her
knees on the depot platform and begged
the crowd of people to save her from the
rriest who was dragging her away to a con-
vent. The crowd, 1t was reported, was
much incensed and was almost ready to
mob the priest when the train bore them
away.

NOW HAS HER CHILDREN
BOARD OF GUARDIANS sURRENDERs
MRS. PETTIT,s LITTLE ONE.
Story of the Cruel Attempt to Break
UD This FamiIy-Husband Re-
ported Responsible.

On Aug. last the Board of Children's
Guardians took charge of the three chill
dren of Mrs. Julia Petit, SIS Spring street,
on the affidavit of the secretary of the
board that the moral associations of the
children were not CT the best. The children
were Ida Petit, aged eleven; Rose. aged
nine, and boy five years of age. The chill
dren were taken from their home by a
deputy sheriff, who had an order from the
court. At the time the case attracted con-
siderable attention. The deputy sheriff stat
ed that he had never witnessed more pitt
full scene than that which took place be-
tween the mother and children when they
found they were to be parted. Mrs. Pet
tit and her husband had not been living to-
gether for some time, and few weeks be-
fore the children were taken from her she
had applied for a divorce. She sought the
advice of an attorney, who promised to have
tho children returned TO her if possible.
Yesterday morning, about O'Clock, Mrs.
Petit was summoned to the Board of
Guardians Home, at Irvington, and was
told that she was at liberty to take her
children away with her. 1t was a glad re-
union of the little family and the mother
and children came away together. 1t is I'M
derstood that the board will not prosecute
the case for possession of the children I'M
less some stronger evidence against the
character of Mrs Petit is shown. Her at
torney claims that her husband is chiefly
responsible for her trouble. 1t is said that 1t
was on the assertion of Petit that his wife
was not living properly that the board
sought to get control OF the children. At
torney Bicknell had prepared to present 20
the court the affidavits of several citizens
living in the neighborhood of the Pettits
that the moral surroundings of the children
are not harmful
Mrs. Pettit's attorney claims his client is
the victim Of circumstances Some time
las4kAmmer Mrs. Petit advertised one of
her1rooms for rent, and the 'ad" was
answered by a man who kept the apartment
for two weeks. During the time he remained
in the house as a ledger Mrs. Pettit's mother
resided with her. 1t is claimed that the
presence of this man in the house started
the complaint against Mrs. Petit. Her suit
for divorce is still pending in the courts.
Frank Wright, agent for the Board of
Guardians, in discussing the Petit case a
day or two ago, remarked that 1t was too
often the case that only one side of the
story is told where the board takes possess
sion OF a child. He complained that the ac-
ton of the board is too often misunder-
stood. In connection with his work as an
agent or the board in placing children in
