That the Law Shall be Enforced.

At a special meeting of the State
Board of Agriculture held at Mil
ford last week, all were in favor of

cation through the newspapers, and by
issuing circular setting forth the
law.
All persons having diseased trees.
were requested to have them taken out
between July 25 and August 1, and any
cases that are detected after that time
are to be removed before the middle OF

HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES
RECEIVE HONOR MENTION
ANIMAL COMMENCEMENT WEEK OF EX.
EpcISes OF THE SMYRNA HIGH SCHOOL.
Began Sunday With the Baccalaureate Ser
man BY Rev. Vaughan S. Collins of
Asbury N. E. Church.

Commencement Week of our
Smvrna High School, an annual oc-
casion of much interest to this COM
munity opened on Sunday morning
with the Baccalaureate Sermon at AS
bury NJ. E. Church preached by the
Rev. Vaughan S. Collins. The audience
was large and inspiring. The gradu-
ates Miss Muriel Janney, Miss Emma
Stevenson, Miss Bessie Middleton,
Miss Clara Spruance and Mr.. Ralph
Jefferson, with Principal John P.
Burdette occupied a pew reserved at
the front of the church. The decora-
tions consisted of a simple basket of
field daises, conspicuous among which
were the snowy "brown eyed susans. "
Rev. Collins referred to the usual
theme of the Baccalsureate discourse
make up of youthful experience OF
the speakers and precepts for the gov
ernment of life, but decided to give
them something practical - lessons
from experiences. His text was from
the book of Proverbs, a book by the
way which he commended strongly to
the young as being full of wisdom ex
tracted from life's experiences. The
passage was-''A wise son maketh 6
glad father, but a foolish son is the
heaviness of his mother" Proverbs
tenth chapter and first verse.
Aside from the natural didactics in
cident to such an occasion, h,
dwelt mainly on two pictures of life
Absalom, who would steal the thron
from his father, King David AM
Joseph, who was sold by his brother
into Egyptian slavery. These picture
were graphically drawn, Absalom, tn
type of the willful migrate, and Joseph
the dutiful and forgiving, who fnall
elvated to high Office his jealou
brethen who had sold him
strangers. He had the close attentio
of the young people in his half hou
discourse.

INSULT TO QUEENS MEMORY.
Cheers for the Beers Given In Austrian
Reichyrath.


Vienna, Feb. AT the first sitting
of the Reichsrath yesterday the presi-
dent commenced speech on Queen
Victoria, in which he paid tributes to
her memory. He was at once inter
rupted by shouts from the Radicals of
Long live the Boers!" and "Hurrab
for the Boers!" Herr Wolff, the no.
torious obstructionist, shouted Down
with the miserable Dutch robbers,"
There were counter shouts of
"Shame!" and a great tumult ensued
All the sober organs of the press in
dignantly protest against the gross
violation of every standard Of propri-
ETY. by the Reichsrath. 1t was not
only that distressing occasion was
chosen to manifest sympathy for the
| Beers, but some of the demons -rators
interjected insulting remarks concern
ing Queen Victoria.
The demonstration, however. is well
understood to have been part of the
campaign of obstruction, which the
enforcement parties are determin-
| ed TO renew. The Czech Nationalist,
Socialists and Pan-Germans all shars d
in the demonstration. but they did not
| confine their uncouth behavior to ex-
pressions against Great Britain.
The Czechs opened the ball by in
sulting shouts, daring the government
to utter word against the Czechs in
the speech from the throne, which will
be delivered on Feb. 4.
When the president began his ad-
dress the Czechs called him an ass and
other names. This preceded the
Anglophobe outbreak. Subsequently
the Pan-Germans osten:atiously let
the chamber when the president called
for the customary cheers for the en-
peror.

CASTELLANE AS JOURNALIST.
Has Article In GauIois Advocating ALI
ance with United States.

ance WIN United states.
Paris, Fee" Count Boni de Cas-
tellane made his journalistic debut
this morning in the columns of the
Gaulois, in an article entitled What
Is Becoming of Imperialism" The
count dwells at length on the stimuli
taneous outburst OF Imperialism in
Great Britain and the United States,
and on the favor with which President
McKinley's reelection has been re-
ceiyed by the British and German
press.
Castellane connects this attitude of
the press with the present reception
accorded the kaiser in London, and
concludes that an alliance of German
and Anglo-Saxon Imperialism is immi-
nent.
In order to combat this juncture of
forces the count advocates strenuous
opposition to such an entente; other
wise, he says, France will be excluded
from the principal markets OF the
world. The article concludes:
"On the morning of President Nc
Kinley's reelection imperialistic doc
trines came down peg. Difficulties
in the Philippines cooled the Ameri-
can desire for conquest. In conse-
quence OF this President Mckinley
appears to favor waiting policy in
China, thus tending to join with
France and Russia and desert Great
Britain and Germany. At this point
France can split up the imperialistic
triple alliance and bring about dual
alliance of the two great democracies,
the United States and France"

Whiting, Ind, Feb. 4, 1901.-(Spe-

citation chooses a President, and to this
very high and distinguished position
Mrs. Mary Z. Poole Of this place has
been elected. Mrs. Poole is thoroughly
deserving of this great honor. Her
devotion to the interests of the Asso-
citation is very marked. and her expert
ence with the old soldiers Of the G. A.
r. is wide. Mrs. Poole is never slow
to take advantage of anything that
may benefit the veterans, and her zeal
has resulted in much that is good to
these grand old men. She writes OF
her experiences: Honor to whom
honor is due, and having seen the nu-
merous cures effected through the use
Of Dodd's Kidney Pills, gladly en-
dorse them as being particularly eff
fective to ere that dreaded disease of

Pills.

Honor to Whom Honor II Due.
The railroads have been greatly
abused as soulless corporations that
were grinding the life blood out of the
people. The great Galveston disaster
has, however, revealed the fact that
the managers Of these corporations
have hearts which are susceptible Of
being touched by the cries of distress.
Their trains were placed at the dis
posal Of all those engaged in relief
work on the coast. Provisions and
supplies were carried forward free Of
charge, committees from every sec
ton of the state were furnished trans
portation, and when the refugees from
Galveston began to pour into Houston
and 1t became a serious question what
was to be done with them the railroads
solved the problem by furnishing
transportation without charge to all
who wished to leave and to any point
they wished to go. Grand Master An
dersoE informs us that but for this
fact Houston would have been overrun
with people who had to be cared for,
ana that suffering anu ulSITeSS WOulu
have been largely increased as well as
the cost Of meeting conditions which
would have prevailed. Bro. Anderson
desires US, through these columns, to
thank the different roads for the great
service rendered his committee at
Houston. If it were possible we would
be glad to see parallel columns, in one
of which should appear the acts Of
these railroad corporations in Q time
of great calamity and distress, and in
the other the amount contributed by
the little two-by-four demagogues who
are always trying to array the preju-
dices of the masses against any and
every kind Of enterprise.-From the
