The Republican organs of this

The Republican organs of this
State have accepted the theory Of
W. S Tay lor in regard to the Rip
ley trial and verdict. This is no
more than we expected and pre-
precisely what we predicted. They
are laboring hard to induce the
people to accept the theory that
Capt. Ripley was tried and ac-
quilted for no other purpose than
to create the impression that a
fair trial could be had in this
State and that w. S. Taylor and
others would, therefore, be sur
rendered to the officials of Ken
lucky. They claim that a fair
trial can not be secured for the
conspirators and murderers of Mr..
Goebel, and, therefore, they do
net want Taylor nor any one ac-
cused of the crime to face the
evidence in this State. Taylor
and his gang do not want justice,
justice is what they seek to avoid.
They want a guarantee of acquit-
tai before they are willing to sur
render, Aaron Burr did not want
justice; Booth fled from it, Giteau
did not desire it, and no consp,ra-
tor or murderer ever sought it.
Why should w. S. Taylor and his
cohorts pant after justice when
mountains ofimpregnable evidence
surround them ? The assertion of
Taylor aud his defenders that JUS
tice is desired is not strong enough
10 stand aloLe nor true enough to
be believed. The highest court in
this State stands four Republicans
and three Democrats, but that
Court can not nor is it willing to
destroy the evidence to liberate
the parties occused. The same
organs that are arduously working
to create false impression as to
the Ripley trial and verdict and
to keep the whole gang from the
clutches of the law assert that
they do not indorse assassination.
Annanias and Saphira claimed
that they had given the price of
their possessions but a righteous
judge ruled.

I MRS. EMMA ALLARD RYDER.

i y
Mrs. Emma AIlard Ryder wife of f. Chin
Ryder. died on Friday last, Nov. %, 1901, aged
Al years.
At their marriage y years ago, Mrs. Ryder
came to live ut the cold Ryder homestead" in
New Haven, short distance from Wey-
bridge. She at once took high position in
society for which she was well fitted. Her
plea SAINT WAYS and dgnified bearing won the
hearts of all with whom she came in contact,
and held them close to her during these
years. Although SO prominent socially, her
home work was the browning effort of her
life Four children have come to them,
three daughters and n son, all OF whom sur
vive her, and the great desire of her life has
been granted IN that they have grown to be
children of promise and ornaments of society
and today "call her blessed" Her husband
has been faithfully supported in all his life
efforts, and she was always At hand with
timely counsel and advice for the good.
She early professed faith in the Christ
religion and came into church Relationship
with the Weybridge Nj. T. church by letter
from her home church at Fairhaven. Every
effort to further His cause has met with her
hearty support and approval, ana has been
shown by her example and generous giving
OF her earthly store. Her testimonies were
always simple and unassuming, but ever of
value on account of the evident honesty of
her heart. 81 am trying to be good" she SAID
on one occasion, which meant much TO her
| A few years since her health failed to that
extent that she was confined to her bed for
some months. and since that time has yer
fully recovered. The long summer months
have found her slowly but SUI ely giving way
hopes ana strong efforts have been given to
rescue her, bUt all to no purpose. Her
strength OF character came to view even in
this and no complaint came. Family ties
were loosened and submission to His will
concer ing her came to the front, and her
dying testimony was, "There is no doubt
| | am saved"
Her funeral was held from the home on
Sunday following her death. Rev. X. W.

THE SEWING SCHOOL.
a Middlebury Institution Based on Scien
tifc Educational Methods.

n Middlebury Institution Based on Scien-
tfc Educational Methods.
All true education is based upon the
physical, mental and moral develop
ment of the child. The requirement of
impressions received is equally import
ant. The world today is full of men
and women who think they see how
things ought to be done, but are utter
ally incapable of doing them. Educa-
tors have found that leading the child
to give expression to knowledge i'm
parted, Is sure way of determin-
ing whether the facts have been cor
rectly received. There are many ways
of expressing self. Verbal expression
has been so exclusively used in the pact
as to lose sight Of self expression
through the body. We are beginning to
feel that no one is literally educated un-
less his body is so trained that it is the
ready servant of the will. The mind must
not only think correctly, but the whole
body must execute with ease and pleas
ure what the mind thinks as mechan
ism 1t must be trained to do all it
was intended the body should do. For
this reason gymnastics, manual training,
sewing, cooking, ETC., should be taught
in our public schools, not to make of
the children, primarily. athletes,
mechanics, seamstresses, cooks, ETC.,
but to develop the body, to train the
hand to correctly and Understandings
execute what the mind thinks-to learn
by doing.
The occupations of the kindergarten, -
which, as DR.. William 7. Harris, United
States Commissioner of Education, says,
is the grandest system of education
ever devised by man-do for the little
child what manual training, sewing
cooking and kindred occupations do
for the older child.
Hand training should never be separat-
ed from head training and heart train
ing, for 1t Is the most potent factor In
head and heart education.
There has recently been organized in
our town sewing school for children be-
aim is educational: to lead the child to see
correctly, to make use of what he sees,
to work ntelligently, instead of mechan-
ically; to so train the hand that 1t Will
execute the behests of the mind, that it
will become ready servant TO the mind.
The work is conducted according to a
system thoroughly tested by large
educational institutions. The sewing
school meets every Saturday afternoon
at ! 80 o'clock, in the Congregational
Sunday school room. The small MEM
bership fee of twenty-five cents, which
should not deter anyone from Joining, is
all that will be expected The money
thus collected will be used in purchasing
sewing materials.
We feel sure that many children in
Mddlebury are ready to avail them
selves of the opportunities of the sewing
school. The present membership is ex-
tremely gratifying to those who have
the work in charge. ~

They CRUSH The POWERS

This is written in midi October. The long,
oppressive summer is quite gone. Fading
leaf, whitening tree and the rustling corn in
the fields are signs of the season. Fog,
frost, rain, snow, they are coming. You
remember last winter; of 1900 and 1901.
The weather was cruel. All! the thous-
ands it killed, and the hundreds of thous-
ands it manned and crippled. Oh, the
rough grasp it laid on men at work, women
at home, and children in cribs and cradles.
Coughs that began before Thanksgiving
Day are racking and tearing them still yes,

tiers. For the soothing and healing power

AS IN DAYS OF old.
Now a. Then, Safety Depends on Strong
Walls and a Brave Garrison.


If YOU ana were defending a castle we
should. of course, look especially to those
places where the walls were lowest and
weakest. Now the human body is a castle.
The better we understand where our weak
spots are and how to cover them from at
tack, the longer we shall keep possession.
We must defend Castle Body when 1t Is
first threatened, and not wait until the
enemy has made a lodgment inside tho
walls. The bad things, the wastes, the i'm
purities, the poisons are, when all is right,
thrown out of Castle Body by means of
the Lungs, the Bowels, the Kidneys, the
Skin-these four scavengers. But when
the first three are bothered by indigestion
and dyspepsia, the skin has more work
than it can do. Now the man exposes his
skin, or some part of it, to the cold. The
skin is clogged at once. Inflammation fol-
lows, the poison goes to weak spots and he
is sick.

A WARNING TO THE BRITISH.

Thomas Wemyss Reid, the English
author, has an article in the December
number of the Nineteenth Century and
After magazine IN which he represents
one of President Roosevelts cabinet as
saying: 81 do not think you English
realize the depth of feeling that exists
outside of your own country on the sub
ject of the South African war, nor the
extreme gravity of the situation which
that feeling has brought into existence.
