The remark of Rev. John w. Suter
of Winchester, that individually con-
sdered, there is no difference between"
walking, driving bicycling, canoeing or
playing golf on Sunday, has caused pro-
tests from all quarters. The New York
umns to interviews with clergymen,
generally but not always, in condemn
alton of Mr.. Suffers speech. But there
is radical Misunderstanding here. The
rector, who is also president of the To-
cal golf club took care to point out
that golf playing on Sunday is a com
munity matter" because it is under the
ban of the law, and there is a strong
community sentiment" in favor of en-
forcement, and both the law and the
sentiment must be respected Hence
he advises abstinence from whatever
pleasure or profit may be derived from
the game by individuals. Furthermore.
it is not merely a question of abiding
by the written law, but of that per
sonal sacrifice which is often demanded
of the conscientious for the sake of the
example to the less wise and orderly
Mr.. Suter lays stress upon the import
ance of Sunday as a day of devotion
and rest, but it is futile to lay down
ironclad laws for its observance by all
mankind. What can be said is that there
is no excuse for deliberately break
ing the law, and those who profess
Christianity or regard for it, are I'M
der obligation not to encourage the
lawless by their example or give offense
to the conscientious. Good breeding,
which may be termed a department of
ethics, has as much to say in this mat

The Massachusetts, regiments were
early sent into the active service of
the United States because they We're
the best equipped of all the troops Of
fered by the several states. Yet when
the general government is required to
return to the commonwealth the &C
coutrements used by the volunteers,
the quartermasterg general tries to load US
up with second hand outfit. Dilapidatt d
canteens, haversacks, gunslings and
other trappings that have been cast
off by regulars and volunteers, have
apparently been sent to Massachu-
sets, under the impression that our
militia officers would not know the
difference between serviceable equip
ments and refuse that has been res
cued from the scrap heap. The Wash
ington authorities will forthwith be
Instructed to the contrary if they have
not been already.

Yellow fever has at last made its ex
pected appearance in Cuba, but there
is as yet no cause for alarm. The
mere fact that the disease has been so
long kept out, is cause for encourage
ment and the discipline enforced by
our officers ensures that all possible
measures will be taken to control it.
The sanitary reforms instituted at San
tiago, Havana, Matanzas and other
cities have abolished many of the con-
ditions that have heretofore contrib
uted to epidemics, and the chances
would seem to be against a serious out
break of the disease. II should be re-
membered, however. that there is much
greater danger for our own troops than
for the natives, and complete immunity
Is not to be expected.

President G. Stanley Hall adds to the
public mystificatic by completely dis
agreeing with Prof. James of Harvard
and Prof. Hyslop of Columbia as to the
spiritualistic powers of the now famous
Mrs. Piper. The president of Clark Uni
versity has sat with Mrs Piper" and
is convinced that all the phenomena
which he witnessed are to be explained
by the ordinary theories and processes
of psychology. In other words he thinks
his learned brethren have been fooled,
though he is careful to eXonerate the
medium from conscious imposition. So
much the public may be able to compre-
bend. and the chances are that the
average reader will know just as much
about the question if nobody attempts
to explain the explanation for him.

Gov. Hazen S. Pingree has come out
boldly as the champion of Secretary
Alger in the contest for the United
States senatorship, and the sky looks
squally for James Macmillan. The
Michigan senator no doubt counted
upon the opposition of Pingree, but he
might have hoped that there would be
no formal alliance with Alger. Oppose
tion to trusts and advocacy of the cleo
ton of senators by the people are two
cardinal points upon which Pingree in
sists, ard Secretary Alger gives his
complete adherence to both. Inasmuch
as MacMillan's term does not expire
till 1901, the Michigan fight has no i'm
mediate significance to the rest of the
country.

they are still several days behind the

been managed with a singularly lax
hand. Business has come to a stand
