Vigorous Treatment Of a Topic BY
Rev. G. l. Pearson-Sew Light
on Old Parable.

Rev. G.. l.. Pearson a. the Methodist
church sunday preached the first
OF a series OF three sermons on Sin
and it's consequences. He took his
text from the parable OF the Prodigal
son, Luke chap. 10. i 20 TO.
Throughout all the parallels of the
Saviour there is a certain unsquailed
vivid naturalness. Many men OF TO-
day doubtless think they could write
parallels, but they would succeed mis-
erably. OF all the parallels, that OF she
Prodigal son offers the best example.
Some people even say that IN II Is
contained the whole gospel.
We see in il the boundless, never
falling love of the Father. The pro-
digal, who is the type Of so many
young men OF to-day. wants his share
OF what is coming TO him. so ;hat he
may go out into the world. II is use
less to attempt to hold him when his
affections are elsewhere. He thinks
things are denied him; that he Is los
ing much.
So il is with us and God. Ii we turn
our back upon God, our hearts are
turned away, distrUst comes and We

shows herself to know what wit and humor
are. Her habits may be expensive to the
LADY friend" but her vindlcation OF her
sex should be welcomed. Imagine GROVER
CLEVELAND in the chariot Of Queen NAB.
There is the conception OF the relation OF
seemingly unrelated contrarlcs, and there
you have n situation humorous to every
body but the owner Of the chariot.
Besides, LADY friends" and all other per-
sons who have furniture and friends owe
to both the duty Of clearer explanation.
We believe that 1t is not the habit at present
to collect all sorts OF stuff in room and
then to invite people to como and tumble
over it. The impenetrability OF matter is
respected little more and 1t is admitted,
by conservatives, at least, that when you
get your people into your room there
ought to be q little space for them.
But the habit Of putting In treacherous
trap-door chairs has not passed away.
There are chairs that nobody can sit
in and chairs that 1t is not safe for
everybody to sit in. How is the visitor to
know whether chair will hold or not2 1t
Is not his crime If some spindle-shanked
fraud is ruined by his weight. Pet chairs,
chairs out OF commission, chairs reserved
for poodles should be marked o (ornamen-
taD IN large red letters on the back and
a red flag with Danger" should he affixed
to them at all hours. II chairs for orna-
| ment are not to be 80 protected. they
should be ranged in rows in a small mez-
canine gallery or hung from the ceiling by
the legs. II they have any sound ones.
There are chairs that we venerate, but We
| cannot believe that the protection OF chairs
is the main purpose OF the race. This wor-
| ship OF gewgaw abominations Is enough to
make men turn Mohammedan.
AS to the ladies with bead trimmings
and wearing bracelets with teeth" our COR
| respondent may find 1t prudent to print
these rules on cards displayed conspicu-
ously on the walls or handed to each Wis
| itor:
"I-LAdios with bead trimmings will be good
enough to remove either tho beads the trim mings
and not replace the until tho conclusion OF tho
| call.
"H-Lsdiss with bracelets with teeth will please
deposit the same. receipt will be given at the hall
| door.
"II.-Ladles arc respectfully reminded that they
| are expected to be as polished as the furniture.
"1v.-To avoid mistakes, please stand mp"
Thus may these social trials be lightened,
| and the chairs be saved.

The Law Of Legislative Contempts.

In the general statute Of this State known
as the Penal Code is title or subdivision
relating to crimes against the legislative
power. That title contains two sections
which bear upon the proceedings Of the
Mazet committee, which is now conducting
an investigation in behalf Of the Assembly
into the affairs of this city.
Section 90 deals as follows with the case
OF witness who refuses to attend before the
Legislature or legislative committee:
"a person who. being duly summoned to attend
as witness before either house OF the Legislature
or any committee thereof authorized TO summon
witnesses refuses negleots without lawful excuse
to attend pursuant to such summons, is guilty Of
misdemeanor."
Section 90 OF the Penal Code thus defines
the offence Of one who refuses to testify:
"A person who. being present before either house
of the Legislature any committee thereof author.
lied to summon witnesses. wilfully refuses to DO
sworn or affirmed. or to answer any material aud
proper question. or to produce. upon reasonable
notice. any material and proper books. papers or
documents In his possession under his control is
guilty Of q misdemeanor"
We are not aware that any one sum-
moned before the Mazet committee has
IL.
Several witnesses, however, have declined
to answer some Of the questions pro-
pounded to them by the counsel to the
committee. and on Friday Capt. PRICE of
the police would make no response to a GER
tain line OF inquiry unless allowed to read
his answer from paper which he had pre-
pared for the purpose. This the counsel
to the committee would not permit.
In order to convict q witness Of the mis-
demeanor defined in section 80 Of the Penal
Code it will be observed that the question
which he has declined TO answer must have
been a material and proper question.
The determination as to whether the
question was material and proper, being
evidently the decision o. a question Of law,
would doubtless have to be made by the
Judge presiding at the trial Of the alleged
offender.
Under the doctrine OF the Mcdonald
case, decided by tho Court OF Appeals in
! SS5, the standard by which to determine
the materiality Of question put by leg
islatlve committee would seem to be it's
relevancy to the exercise of the lawmaking
power or the power OF impeachment. I'm
Legislature in the discharge of its functions
under the Constitution, neither the Legis-
lature itself nor any legislative committee
has jurisdiction to prosecute it,
This rule leaves very wide field open to
tho investigators, for, as Judge RAPALLo
said in the case to which we refer, the
courts "are bound to presume that the 40.
ton of tho Legislative body was with lie.
climate object, il it is capable Of being SO
construed"
1t is plain, however, that such investiga.
tions are readily subject to abuse, and that
they often degenerate into personal and
political controversies that have no relation
whatever to any contemplated action by
tho Legislature. When this happens, the
inquiry loses much OF its efficacy for good
and the legislative branch OF the Govern
ment suffers in the public esteem.
