constitution, they could not be inter-
fered with. So, In 1927 years ago
the Cullom law made it a statutory
crime. That law was a dead letter in
Utah for ten years, because of the i'm
possibility of obtaining any verdicts I'M
der it. In 1874 the Poland law provided
for reorganization of the courts, and
under the new arrangement, a polygam-
ist was arrested, tried and convicted.
The case was appealed to the supreme
court of the United States and affirmed
as every sensible man knew that it
would be. All this happened before B.
HI. Roberts went into polygamy. Why
then do editors, professors, literary
lights, unsexed women, and above all,
lawyers, argue gravely that up to the
passage of the Edmunds- Tucker law,
there was no law which made polygamy
in Utah unlawful? The law has been
upon the nations statute books for the
life time of a generation of men. B. III.
Roberts knew all about it when he took
his first plural wife.

THE CONGRUOUS CROKER.

If Thomas Jefferson still retains his
interest in Jeffersonian Democracy he
will feel much battered by the massive
compliment which Richard Croker is
planning to pay him. Mr.. Croker says
that his Democratic club is going to Gel
citrate Thomas Jefferson's birthday by
a $4,000 dinner at the Metropolitan
opera house. The dinner is to take
place on April 49, 1t is to be attended
by the 1900 members of the Democratic
club, who will be assessed $40 apiece,
and by one hundred special guests.
Grand and impressive indeed. To see
and hear Croker's Democrats worship
ping Jefferson will be sight and a
sound which those who are privileged
to see and hear ought to appreciate We
hope Jefferson will be there, and we
hope some of the diners will get a
glimpse of his spirit

GLASS PLACEMENTS

When the merits and dement's of the
various kinds of pavements were being
so carefully considered in this city just
before the surprising excellence Of
asphalt was discovered, was the glass
pavement among those studied and re-
jected? If not it may be well to take a
look at it now. John G. Covert, United
States consul at Lyons, has something
to say about it which seems to be worth
attention. Early in October last a paw
ing company there began laying a piece
of pavement of ceramocrystal, or dewitt
rifieG glass. During the months of No
vember, December and January the
pavement was driven over during all
hours of the day and night. 1t stood
the hard usage as well as any pavement
could, and at the time of the transmits
sion of the report was in an admirable
state of preservation. The glass pave
ment is laid in the form of blocks, eight
inches square, each block containing
sixteen parts in the form of checkers.
These blocks are so closely fitted to-
gether that water cannot pass between
them, and the whole pavement looks
like one large checker board. Like all
thoroughfares of France, the roadbed
slopes gently to the walk on each side.
Some of the edges of the checkers have
been broken off during their three
months service. Mr., Covert counted
about twenty that were slightly Clipped
on the edges. 1t is contended that this
does not argue against the value of the
material as a pavement, and that any
kind of stone would have suffered just
as much or more in the same time. The
advantages claimed for this kind of
pavement are that it offers a greater

resistance than stone; that 1T is poor
conductor of cold, and ice will not form
upon it readily; that dirt will not accu-
mulate upon it as easily as upon stone,
and that it will not retain microbes;
also, that it is more durable than stone,
and just as cheap The new product is
obtained from broken glass, heated to
a temperature of 1850 degrees, and COM
pressed in matrices by hydraulic force.
The firm manufacturing this material
proposes to have a large house con-
structed entirely of glass as one of the
features of the coming Paris exposition
Glass is to be used for tubes, pipes,
watts, tiles, smokestacks and for all 9TH
err purposes. 1T is claimed that 1T can
be built more cheaply than If brick were
used.
Nothing is said about the slipperiness
of glass pavement, but it can hardly be
more slippery than asphalt, They say
that asphalt is as slippery as glass,

IL GREAT REDUCTION.

While there are heaps of trouble in
the Philippines the Cubans are accept
ing the new situation with much grace
and ease. They are especially pleased
by the way their new friends have cut
down the taxes. When Blanco was
governors general the impoverished peo-
pie were paying about $2600o,000 year
to support the government that was OPP
pressing them. Over 500, 900 Of these
taxes have been abolished by the United
States government, this total being
made up of $l0,435,1 1888 for interest and
sinking funds, $6,1OO,0OO for military ad-
ministration, 100000 for salary of the
governor-general and his household, ST.
450,SS1 for the army and navy retired
list, and $5297OO for pensions. These
sums amount to $19,O14,SS3, and there
must be added $472,OOo for subsidies to
Spanish steamship lines, and the exor-
bitant prices for all kinds of supplies
from Spain which the Cubans were
compelled to pay because of the dis
eliminating tariff then in force
This is fine showing. There are
people in New Haven who would be
almost willing to be captured if their
captors would cut down the taxes as
the captors of Cuba have.

Back in her box, by the curtains shaded.
She sits alone, by the house unseen;
Her eye Is dim and her cheek is faded
She who was once the peoples queen
The curtain rolls up, and she sees before
her
vision Of beauty and youth and grace
All NO wonder all hearts adore her,
Silver-throatcd and fair of face
Out of her box she leans and listens
Oh, Is 1t with pleasure or with despair
That her thin cheek pales and her dim eye
glistens,
Waffle the fresh young voice sings the
grand old air?
She is back again in her past's bright
splendor,
When life, was worth living and love was
Ere Time mad told her she must surrender
Her double dover of fame and youth.
1t is she herself who stands there singing
TO that sea of faces, that shines and stirs;
And the cheers on cheers that go up ring
ing
And rousng the echoes are hers, all hers.
Just for one moment the sweet deluslon
Quickens her pulses and blurs her sight,
And wakes within her that wild confusion
OF joy, that Is anguish and fierce delight.
Then the curtain goes down. and the lights
cleaning
Brightly DER circle and box and stall;
She starts like sleeper who wakes from
dreaming;
Her youth lies under Times funeral pail
Her day Is dead and her star descended,
Never to rise or to shlne again;
Her reign is over, her queenship ended,
A new name Is sounded and sung by men.
All the glitter and glow and splendor.
All the glory of that lost day,
With the friends that seemed true and the
love that seemed tender,
Why what Is 1t all but dead bouquet?
She rises to go. Has the night turned
colder?
The new queen answers to call and shout;
And the old queen looks back over her
shoulder.
As, all unnoticed, she passes out.

GOOD MONEY IN GOOD ROADS.

he has come to the conclusion that good
roads save a lot of money. He finds
that the annual cost of wagon transport
tation of the country is $900,000,000 and
that if all the road improvements were
made that could be profitably made the
annual saving would be 100000, 900.

RELIGION AT THE PARIS EXPOSE
TION


Cadinal Richard, Archbishop of Paris,
is at present in Rome for the purpose
of laying before Leo XIII new project
for organizing at the Paris Exposition
of 1900 a display of ecclesiastical art.
history and relics Illustrative of all
forms of religion, the Catholic faith
holding, of course, the principal place.
A scheme Of this kind was suggested
before, when the Exposition was first
mooted The Pope, at the outset,
seemed to sanction the idea, and in
speaking with Cardinal Gibbons he
displayed what might even be called
enthusiasm, but when he became more
fully acquainted, with the details, and
it was found that discussion of the
different religions was projected, the
Vatican retired into it's shell, and re-
fused to take part in the scheme. OF
course, without the adhesion of the
Church Of Rome, both because of the
Importance of the Catholic religion and
because it is the faith of the country
where the exhibition is to be held
the idea had to be abandoned
Now it is revived under another form
namely that the Vatican should
participate in a kind of religious exh-
bition resembling, but on a larger scale,
the religious and missionary show so
much admired last year at the fair in
Turin.
1t would comprise great panorama,
Including all the most important events
in the history of the Church eince the
beginning of Christianity down to our
days, reproductions of all the Popes, of
great Catholics, and of the monuments
connected with the Church, such as the
Holy Sepulchre, Calvary, the Mount Of
Olives, the Catacombs, and the princi-
pal churches and shrines. Moreover,
there would be representations Of must
cal religious masterpieces, and
museum of sculpture and the best
paintings of religious subjects. Ac-
cording to the promoters, this scheme
should result in the apotheosis of
Catholicism at the opening of the
twentieth century; but it is a. question
whether Leo XIII can be induced to
again change his mind on the subject
although it has been pointed out to him
that it would be strange not to allow

| PLANTS KNOWN TO SCIENCE.
| A comparison of the number of
species of plants known to the various
! learned men who have lived during the
last two thousands years, and whose
| names are more or less familiar to us,
shows how marvellously our knowledge
of plants has been increased. Thus
Hippocrates, called the Father Of
Medicine" who lived between 5O0-40O
B. c., knew only 2S4 species or kinds of
plants. Theophrastus, S71-225 B. c.
who was perhaps the first real bota-
mist whose name has been handed down
to us, described about five hundred
species of plants, which he divided into
trees herbs and shrubs. BY Dioscorides
CT A. d. the number was raised to
six hundred species, and Piny (23-79
A. D.)to eight hundred species. During
the ensuing fifteen hundred years and
more comparatively little work was ac-
compllshed Ray, who wrote between
1886 and 1904, enumerated and described
1885 species Of plants. The number
of plants known to Linnaeus in 1771
was only S,551 species, less than half
the number supposed to have been
known to Ray. Persons, in 1907, re-
cognized 10000 species of Towering
plants, while De Candolle, in 1909,
recognized 10000 species. In 1924
Steudel enumerated 10000 species in
Guiding Towering and lower plants.
This number was raised by Lindley in
1916 to 1887. In 1885 Durharte etimatel
the number Of known plants Of all
groups at 125.00O. Durand. in 1885, dis
tributes the towering plants as follows;
Families, 210; genera, SALT; species,
100,220; but at this enumeration was
based on the extremely conservative
work of Bentham and Hooker the
number was even then much larger.
An estimate made about five years ago
placed the number of known plants in
the world at 173.706, Of which the seed
plants made up about $4,000. Consider
ing the number of new species published
every year, it is probable that the num-
Der now in the books is not much |
short of 200, OCCUPANT World.
