IMPOLITE YOTNG MEN,

In Holyoke, Massachusetts, as in many other places, they are trying to make religious services attractive" to those who need religion. Among the attractions provided is good music, and it appears that some of those who have
 been attracted by the music haven't been polite enough to swallow the music-baited hook. We read in yester- days Springfield Republican: Several young men have of late started to in- troduce into the Holyoke churches the the close of the play. Last evening at the o'clock service of the Second Congregational church certain youths started for the door after the oomple- tion of the musical programme. They went quickly, but not quickly enough to avoid hearing Rev. Dr. Reed make some severe but entirely justified re- marks concerning the disturbance that such actions occasioned. In fact, he then ana tnere ollereu tO SuSpeIQ lne services for few minutes so that the young men that desired to do so might leave. Several youth who had fur lively reached for their hats sat bolt upright at these words, and tried to look ae though they had paid 50 cents for their seat and wanted to get the worth of their money. The pastors re- marks were few, but to the point, and the adjournment of the young men af- ter the musical service will not be as popular in the future as in the past.
 Perhaps the young men thus rebuked will not be attracted" by the music any more, but if they are they certain ly ought to stay through the services

The Highwood Homicide Agai,

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier: | A press of routine business has pre- vented notice and criticism of the Journal and Courier's correspondent s article of the 23d instant relative to the Yang case until the present time. In the first and primary place, it ] should always be borne in mind that Connecticut, like all the New England States from the advent of the English settlers to the present year, has been governed by law, and every accused person has a right to fair trial. It has no such popular and summary methods to right alleged and real per- sonal and society wrongs as are ire quently employed in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Texas and other southern States. No person in this State for any real or supposed injury can lawfully elect to be at once sheriff, court and executioner.
 It may be well to notice in this place the crime of which Yang was convicted by an impartial trial, unprejudiced and fair Probably in the opinion of many persons Guilty of manslaughter' should have been the verdict. He did not come upon his victim by accident and then kill in a fit of passion. He went for his gun, he laid in walt, In ann bush, and then shot through the heart, to the death, his former friend. Eight cen men, good and true"-the grand jury-months ago considered this was murder in the first degree, the punish- ment of which Is to be hung by the neck in midair until there Is no life in the body. The petit jury mitigated this and made life imprisonment the pen atty
 The Milford tragedy furnishes no par allel case. The thief was in custody and he took the extra hazardous chances after being warned to run, and the risk cost him his life. There was no lying in wait"
 It is evident that the best thing Yang can do is to remain quiet for awhile. If his crime is again at the present time brought to the attention of the criminal courts and the highest tribu- nals and the recent verdict emphasized, as there is liability of its being done, his ultimate pardon may be longer de- layed and more difficult to obtain.
 In conclusion it can be correctly stated that the moral sense of individ- uals living in enlightened communities should be careful in condoning crimes against life, society, liberty and law.

.MILDLY ENTER ESTI NC.

The investigation of the old Board of Finance last evening wasn't as thor ough as it might have been but it was sufficiently thorough to reveal the fact that there wasn't any great effort by the old Board to get interest on city money. There was little stir about the matter, but nothing very definite
 or official" The city didn't get any interest, and nobody was much agitated
 by the new charter.
 By the way, isn't it rather interesting that so many of our "best citizens" have, in this little financial matter. shown such incapacity or unwilling ness to do business properly? Wasn't there theory that with a gorgeous new charter better men would be in of- flee, and that such men would feel their responsibility more keenly than the in- ferior beings who stumbled along ur- der the old charter felt theirs?

ST4RTTNG RIGHT.

Those who were out last evening when the "Italo-Americans were marching through the streets saw an impressive sight. There were hundreds of sturdy new citizens in the line, with Republi- canism written all over their enthusias- tic faces, and permeating their robust shouts The Italians who come to this country take kindly to Republicanism and full dinner pails. They are not at tracted by Bryanism and business dis turbance which would lessen their chances to work and have full dinner pals. They are starting right, and when they get further into the political game they will be we'll entitled to the recognition" which they will demand.

Alvord the great Is caught He was caught in Boston yesterday, whither he quietly went when he decided to leave New York, and where he was quietly living in a back room in a lodging house. He is relieved by his arrest. and perhaps his former associates in the bank are too. He rightly says that
 "$700000 is a lot of money but 1t goes easy" He has backed fast horses and owned fast horses. He has lived his life," and has taken life to it's full ex- tent at the rate of $50,OO0 year or more." He will not make any fight, and has nothing with which to make restitution. He was somewhat inclined to commit suicide, but his wife advised him to live, and he has done so.
 Alvord will be a distinguished man in prison, and what he will be if he lives to come out remains to be seen. It is to be hoped that before he goes to prison he will talk freely. The workings of the mind of a man who could calmly and gently steal s7OO.oOO would perhaps be worth some study.

THE SIN OF BETTING ON A SURF
 

THE SIN OF BETTING ON A SURE THING
 Woman" remarked Mr Gooseling of Georgetown Ifs heavens best gift to man, but whether it means a married woman or not, I am not 50 certain. Now, there's my wife; I've known a good many women in my time, and I don't think I'd be willing to change her for any woman I ever met, saw or heard of. We've been married twenty years, and in all that time we've never had a cross word that we didn't get dis posed of somehow before we had many more. It's the only way to get along with a woman I'd rather yield doz- en times a day than to eat the kind of a meal my wife can have brought on the table when she's a mind to. I'm willing to make as many concessions as the next man, but I really think there Is limit that any reasonable woman ought to observe. Not that my wife is not as reasonable as any other married woman, mind you, for she is. But there are times when she makes me doubt the strict accuracy of the time-honored maxim I have quoted. Now, for in- stance, the other day I was doing some thing or other around the house, like a man has right to do on his own prem ises, and, just as men sometimes do, I put my finger where I had no business to put it, and hit it a lick with the ham, mer." x
 Well, said I to myself, though my wife was sewing by the window on the other side of the room, I'll bet I'm the biggest darn fool in ten states
 ''All of which had perfect right to say, but my wife looks up from her work, and says She:
 William says she, don't you know enough about the ethics of gam bling to know that you have no right to bet on a certainty?'
 "That's what she said, and under the circumstances, what on earth could l say but nothing, and that's what I said. But hit that nail lick with the ham, mer that drove it clear in over it's head and broke q pane of glass that cost a dollar to replace" Washington Star.

Unterrkded Uncle Hen.

Oh, they're telin' us of dangers that arc
 just piece ahead, They are tryln' to convince us that the birt O freedoms dead You can hear 'em on the corners where they swing their arms aud spout, Tellin' how the bloated gorgons want tc
 suck our life-blood out, And they say our great Republics just
 about to go to smash That an Emperor's to rule us, sittin on a
 throne of cash But l, some way, have feeln' that, how
 ever we may land, The people here'll govern at the same old
 stand. And the other chaps they tell us that
 there's anarchy In store If we don't choke down the monster, as we
 done the trick before; Lord! you'd think, to hear 'em talkin', that
 the eagle'd never dare To let out another Screech or flap a feath-
 CT in the air If we let the wild-eyed shouters with their
 crazy schemes get in-- Each sides got the country ruined It It s
 not allowed to win But l guess we'll stay in bizness here, no
 matter how we land, With the people sort of rulin' at the same
 old stand. They've talked of octopuses and of awful
 troglodytes Till they've got the people nervous and
 a-tOSSln round O nights; They're printin' frightful pictures of these
 monsters that they say Are prepared to bounce upon us If we vote
 the other way! Oh, you'd think, to hear 'em go 1t, that the
 Lord had cut us dead. And that Satan was a-tunnin' on each
 ticket-at the head!- Still, l guess, in spite of all the awful rue
 tions that they've planned, The people here'l govern at the same old
 stand. I expect to keep on workin', as I've always
 had to do, When the great eruption's over, and the
 hollerin' Is through l ain't lookin fer a windfal either way the
 fight comes out, And l guess the bird O freedom'll keep
 perchin' round about! Oh, the proud old flag 1 follered from At
 lanta to the Sea, They may stop it from a-wavin' over you
 and over me But I've got strong suspicion it'll still
 float oer the land, With the mighty people ruln' at the same
 old stand. -S. E. Riser In Chicago Times Herald

"Xyithout the Consent of the Governed"

Bryan's party was a prime factor In 1886 the State of Georgia, on total poll throughout the State of less than 29,000, sent ten representatives to con- gress, who, when they got to Washing ton, cast ten negative votes on the question of the admission of the terri tory of Dakota, which territory the same day casting 105,000 votes asked to be admitted to Statehood, thus by their action keeping those people out in the cold without the consent of the gov-' erned."
