A journal which lives off the Terri
tory and yet always sides against it in
any issue between its rights and inter
ests and those of the Federal Govern
ment insists that the law requiring the
prosecution of captains and mates of
American vessels who infiict bodily
harm on seamen under their command
is mandatory" Most laws are manda-
tory but we know of none that compels
a prosecuting officer to swallow every
fo'castle yarn he hears and try to fill
the Jail with shipping masters whom
the hoboes before the mast and the
Sailors Union ashore want to coerce.
Such proceedings so rarely occur any
where else in America that the Com
missioner of Navigation posted the Sod
ergren sentence as fact of exceptional
interest to ship-captains the world over.
In other places the drunken sailor, tes-
tifyings against a. captain or mate, gets
about as mVehzcredence9 does Chi
naman, testifying in Western court
against white man. Here he is re-
tceived with enthusiasm as a witness
unspotted of the world. No wonder the
walking delegates Of the Seamen's
Union never stroll by the Honolulu
court house without respectfully ceasing
to spit tobacco juice on the sidewalk.

HOME MISSIONARY SOCIETY.

Hartford, Conn, Oct 1.-The report of the committee appointed by the Congregational Home Missio ary so- ciety in reference to the society's rela- tion to it's auxiliaries and cooperating societies, was made public to-day. 1t recommends a national committee to serve territories, to be elected on the basis of one delegate for every 10000 church members, every state associa- ton, however, being entitled to one member. This national committee is to elect the society's executive com mittee, estimate the probable income of the society, and apportion the amount to be expended in each state or territory. Any of the state home missionary societies which will as- sume all expenses of home missionary work within it's state, is to be classed as an auxiliary society, and shall ad- minister all home missionary work within the state. All moneys received by treasurers of such state socleties shall be reported as receipts of the na- tional society.

FOUND LOST WEDDING RING.


 Seven years ago A. J. Burgess of Shelton, while engaged in washing his carriage. lost his wife's wedding ring, which he had placed on her finger a short time before. Since that time, all though every effort to find the ring has been made. no trace of the missing ar ticle had been found, until, while walk ing down the driveway on Tuesday, Mrs Burgess saw something shining near her feet. She stopped and found, nearly in the center of the drive, her long lost ring. It was firmly en- bedded in the soil, only little of the circlet appearing. Twice during the time since the ring was lost, MT Bur- gess has pulled down a small stone wall running along the drive, thinking that the ring might be there. To say that Mrs Burgess was delighted scarcely expresses her feelings.

SHEPARD SILENT ON DEyERY.
Croker's Candidate Refuses to Say
 He Will Dismiss Him.


 New York, Oct 11.-Edward M. Shepard was asked again yesterday what he intended to do if elected mayor regarding Deputy Police Com missioner Devery, and again he de- clined to say. Devery, reiterated the Tammany candidate, is a political question, and he does not purpose to talk i'll interviews on political ques- tions during the campaign.
 Every day since he returned to New York as Croker's candidate for mayor, Mir Shepard has been asked whether or not he would remove Devery if elected, and he has refused from the first to answer the question. Yesterday the matter was put to him in another form in his home, 172 Congress street, Brooklyn.
 ''Was George Foster Peabody. who was quoted in an interview in Sara toga as saying you had made no pledges to Croker as to Tammany, and that, if elected. you would oust Devery, authorized to make any such statement?' he was asked.
 ''No one," replied MT Shepard, "has been authorized to say what 1 will do or mot if elected.".
 w ldt uO you lHiHk Ol MI hoW 5 declaration regarding the removal of Devery, in his speech last nightY' he was asked.
 ''That is a political question" re- piled MT Shepard.
 twill you say what you intend to do about Devery in your opening speech on Saturday night?"
 HI will not say in advance what I intend to say in my speeches." was the reply with noticeable hauteur.
