The Governor is Wrong.

Governor Rollins, of New Hamp-
shire, takes a surprisingly pessimis-
tic stand in proclamation just issued
to the people of his state, when he
notes as marked feature of the times
the decline of the Christian religion,
particularly in rural communities.
1t had been believed that the tend
ency was just the other way. Ger
tainly the church has never seemed to
be more active or more in touch with
the general affairs Of the world than
at the present time. With the vari-
GUS Christian leagues, the Christian
Endeavor Societies, the Young
Mems and Young Women's Christian
Associations, the Salvation Army and
the American Volunteers, not to men.
tion the many other religious and
semi-religious organizations working
earnestly in the cause of religion and
humanity, there seemed to be good
reason for believing that Christianity
was not retrograding, nor even stand
ing still, but going steadily forward
Only by the results which these
workers achieve can we judge Of the
situation, and the perceptitle changes
for the better which are being made
daily in the condition Of the poor GER
tainly does not argue in favor o
Governor Rollins proposition. Ou
churches are not decreasing in mum
ber, nor are their congregation
dwindling. Among the masses ther'
is no lack of evidence that the utmos
reverence is still paid to the Creator
and in every walk Of life the spirit o
confidence in and dependence upol
the Supreme Being is still dominan
trait Of the American people.
Why there should be a decline o
Christianity in the rural communi
ties, where there is less temptation
than In the large cities, and wher,
the incentive for an upright Christian
life is always strongest, it is i'm
possible 20 conceive. Governor Rol
Inns will find it difficult to conyinc'
the people that the alarming 'eondi
tions which he refers to really exist

THE CUBAN MUSTER ROLLS

Handed Over to the American Mill
tary Authorities Today.
Havana, April 1.-THE military au-
thoritles today received the Cuban
army muster rolls, which have been
held by the so-called executive com
mittee appointed by the late military
assembly before its dissolution. With
General Gomez as the army's repre-
sentative to be dealt with in the mat
ter of payment and discharging, and
with the rolls in their possession, the
Americans will now be in a position
to push forward energetically, which
they are fully prepared to do. Clerks,
employed several weeks ago, have been
waiting at headquarters at El Vadado
to copy and compare the rolls.
Doubtless there will be considerable
criticism among the Cubans when IT
is announced that the United States
is fully resolved not to make any pay
ments to former soldiers now in civil
employment and to eliminate also all
who enlisted after July II last. The
widows of Cuban officers have pre-
sented an address to the military au-
thoritles asking what they must do tC
obtain their share of the disbursement

GEN. WILLIAM LUDLOW, former

need is to stop the waste of water
The city is pumping three times al
much water as it is using in othel

The Kidney Complexion.

The pale, sallow, snnken-cheeked, dis
tressed-looking people you so often meet are
afflicted with kidney Complexion"
Their kidneys are turning to parsnip
color So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or suffer
from sleeplessness, rheumatism, neuralgia,
brain trouble, nervous exhaustion and some
times the heart acts badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kidneys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney disease
does not find out what the trouble is until it
is almost too late because the first symptoms
are so like mild sickness that they do not
think they need a medicine or doctor until
they find themselves sick in bed.
Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root will build up
and strengthen their weak and diseased
kidneys, purify their diseased, kidney
poisoned blood, clear their complexion and
soon they will enjoy better health.
You can get the regular sizes at the drug
store, at fifty cents and one dollar, or you
may first prove for yourself the wonderful
virtues of this great discovery Swamp Root

Threatening language.

One OF the strikers Arrested For
Threatening language.
Bridgeton, N j., April 11.-A large
number of striking glaIs workers and
sympathizers gathered outside the
Cumberland glass works yesterday and
hooted and jeered the hands as they
came from the works, but there was
no other disturbance. The Cumber-
land and the More-Jonas companies
are working part of their bottle rae
tories, and they have some journey
men. Most of the work, however, Is
being done by green hands and ap-
prentices. The Cumberland is operat-
ing one large furnace in full and say
they have applications enough to start
another, which they claim will he
done in a few days. The strikers, on
the other hand, say the men now at
work will soon leave. 1t is reported
that the Cumberland company has pro-
cured cots to fit up a building for
workmen whom they will bring here.
An officer of the company said today
that the works would never become
unionized. This factory, as on previous
similar occasions, seems to be the CEN
ter of the conflict. The workmen who
are out profess faith in winning. They
say the companies will find 1t tmpos-
sible to get men enough to operate
the works satisfactorily.
The first arrest growing out of the
strike occurred yesterday afternoon
Israel Hoffman, one of the strikers
was placed under 5000 bonds to keeI
the peace. He was charged with
threatening Silas Bachelor with per
sonal violence because Bachelor had
put two sons to work at the Cumber'
land glass works.
