The mayors reasons for vetoing the order passed by the Court of Common Council recommending that some land recently condemned for park purposes should be sold by the city to a private purchaser will strike most disinterested people as entirely adequate. The may or points out, among other things, that under this kind of action if one man wanted to acquire the private residence of another man without the consent of the owner all he would have to do would be to get the city to condemn the resi- dence for some public use and then sell it to him at private sale. And the mayor might have added that consid- ering the way things have been going in this city lately 1t would not be pre- posterous to fear that such things would be done if the precedent of sell ing the park land should be established.
 New Haven undoubtedly needs $7OO, but she doesn't need it badly enough to sell park land for it in the way pro- posed.

 THE REIGN OF LAY.
ness.

Some people in England are just now l wondering whether law and common
 sense are related to each other. A wo.
 man who was getting off train was | thrown to the ground by its sudden starting without any notice having been given. The case was tried be- fore jury and she was awarded dam- ages of 910 for the injuries received. By some blunder the verdict was wrongly entered on the records of the l court by the clerk, and the. question
 now Is, How is she to get her money?
 Her counsel appealed to the judge for
 new trial as the only way he knew
 to straighten out the difficulty. The judge said that he could not grant the new trial because the case had been heard and decided, and was, therefore finished as far as the court was con- cerned. The counsel for the plaintiff then asked permission to appeal, but the judge said: T cannot do even that, because there is nothing to appeal on, for the plaintiff accepted the verdict at the time I don't know whose mis- take it is, but it must be stood by" Therefore by a slip of the pen of a court clerk, who wrote the word de- fendant instead of the word plaintiff, the result of jury trial is nullified, and suitor is deprived of the damages which the jury awarded her.
 The London Daily Express asks if man were tried for murder and the jury had brought in verdict of not guilty, and the clerk made a similar mistake and had written it guilty, would the in nocent man have to be hanged on ac- count of the clerks mistake? If Gill bert and Sullivan were alive and work ing they could get a good subject for a comic opera out of this legal incl dent.

Christian Science.

, To the Editor of the Journal and Courier: l I note in your issue of May 27th the
 comments of G. M. Tyrrell on the posi- | tion of the Methodist Conference in re-
 gard to 9 minister of their faith, Rev.
 s. E. Simonseon who desired to with draw from Methodism to become
 member of the Church of Christian Scientists, and fee. that there are but | few that sympathize with the intoler- ! ance and unchristian spirit shown to- 1 ward him. I have come into contact ! with Christian Scientists for some time, and am glad to give my testimony to
 the fact, that as far as l can judge they are fully up to the highest Chris tian standard, if not above it, in Chris tian faith and living. although I cannot
 agree with their teachings; believing,
 as they do, that there is no such thing as disease to those who have sufficient Christian faith. If that be so, how do
 Christian Scientists die? That is, how do they shake off the mortal coil? They claim mind controls matter. It is ap- pointed to all men to die, and it is
 taught that most persons have in them
 the germs of the disease that will even- tudly CduSG luelTs Qedlll, uIlGSS dNCl-
 dent or some malady of q different type
 intervenes than that to which they are
 prediSposed, as above stated.
 If there is no such thing as sickness,
 how is it that person can show the influence of it in looks, pulse and tenn perature, and that medicine to correct these conditions administered by advice of physician, or without many times does correct these conditions of the sys- tenn, as in levers, etc., making a com plete change that any novice can plainly see. Is 1t not, therefore, asking too much of a common sense public to doubt the evidence of their God-given senses. Black is black the world over, and no theorizing will make. it different. The writer who stated that it was a funny sight to see Christian Scientist wrestling with la grippe stated a hard fact in his humorous suggestion. Any thing new in beliefs now seems to be seized upon with avidity. The old, but ever new teaching of the Bible as ac- cepted for the last nineteen centuries will still have to do for me, as it does for so many others.

Even those who are most critical of ''nature-study" by. school children will not find any. fault with the kind of nature study that is carried on by the school children of Carthage, Missouri. Last year w. J. Stevens, superintend- ent of the schools in the town, offered tWenty-four prizes to be awarded to those pupils who made the best show ing in vine planting, and in raising flowers and vegetables. The children entered into the movement with en- thusiasm, and soon every unsightly shed, fence, wall, and tree stump was yelled with vines, while front yards blossomed and rear yards supplied the table withi vegetables There were l. 500 pupils in the contest. This year even more are striving for the prizes, and Carthage will soon be in bloom again. It is a very effective way to beautify the town, besides being prac- tical course of study.
 Good for Carthage Missouri All the noble Romans of these imperial days will join in saying that she ought to be preserved

AN fNTEE PLAN.

If all goes as it is planned in a few
 days wireless telegraphy will be in actual business use in this country. It is intended to open the first stations on June at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Grand Haven. Michigan, and they will be for the use of the Cleveland and Buff falo Steamship company. As soon as the stations can be erected the system will be extended through Illinois, Wiscon- sin, Iowa, Minnesota, northern Mich igan, and Arizona, the company being incorporated under the laws of the lat- ter. The company claims that the work will be carried on with so much less eX- pense than the pole system that 1t will be able to send messages for much lower rate. The company holds the right to the territory from the parent company in Philadelphia One of the claims to merit of the system is that it will be established in a part of the United States where there are many Interruptions to ser- vice on the pole lines, : owing to the snowstorms in the winter, while it can maintain communications no matter how severe storm may be.

Those who are inclined to think that the negro is no good are invited to con- sider the case of Charles Winter Wood
 Twenty years ago Charles Winter Wood, colored, was a friendless, uned- ucated bootblack in Chicago, being then about ten years old One day a lawyer in the Unity building offered him dollar to learn and recite the ghost scene from Hamlet and his rendering of the scene was so spirited that it reused the interest of Professor Lyman, a teacher of elocution, who not only employed the boy as an office boy, but gave him lessons in oratory, For a time Wood had theatrical aspi- rations, and he even went so far as to organize a company of negro trage- dians, giving number of performances that were surprisingly successful But Wood was fortunate in gaining the ratrona~e of 2 wealthy manufacturer, who sent him to college at Beloit There he remained eight years, winning many l1onors and graduating with dis tinction. In the intercollegiate con- test at Galesburg he took the second honor barely missing the first. Leav- ing Beloit, he entered the Chicago Theo- logical Seminary, and was graduated three years later. In 1898 he was made the pastor of church at Warren. Illi- nois, but. was speedily called to the head of the English department at Tuskegee, a place he now holds.

In a discussion on the subject of naval scouting and dispatch vessels at the last meeting of the Institute of Ma val Architects in London Vice Admiral Fitzgerald argued that first class cruis- CTS are too valuable to be exposed to the danger of watching an enemy s port; that the smaller cruisers would from want of speed, be liable to cap ture by faster and more powerful ves- sells of the enemy; while trans-Atlan- tic liners are too large for such ser vice, and therefore special type must be created. This he proposed to be a vessel $500 tons, having sea-speed of twenty three knots, with power on an emergency to work up to twenty-five knots. Commander Clover, United States naval attache bore testimony to the value of the transatlantic liner for scouting, as demonstrated by the St. Paul and St. Louis in the war with Spain.

Diamonds in plain view in a Tie Sid
ing saloon!
The diamonds changed hands OF
course. Nothing else could have been
expected. Any man who would go into
a Tie Siding saloon with a diamond
cleaning in his shirt stud
This is the simple story of what hap
pened to Morse-W. E. Morse, a near
relative of the we'll known R. E. Morse.
He has p%rospered, and having a taste
for glitter, put part Of his hard-earned
cash into diamonds. The only use for
diamonds, besides giving them to ones
lady love, is to wear them for the edit.
cation Of the people who have no dia-
monds. That is what W. E. Morse did.
He went into Tie Siding from Woods
camp, and disported himself chiefly in
Whites saloon. Other gentlemen we're
there-several of them. Morse's $125
diamond stud, and his SIS diamond
stickpin we're like an open seasame. 1t
was really amazing what an introduce
ton they were, and how many persons
we're willing to set EN- up. "A pleasant
time was had" all around, and Morse
swore by the great horn spoon that he
had eve found 30 hearty a lot Of fell
lows in all his life. Same here" was
the oft-expressed opinion Of the hearty
fellows; and the customary just one
more was repeated so often that 1t be-
came unnecessary.
After a while-Morse does not ex-
actly remember Nowhere was a dis
turbance. Somebody wanted to quar-
rel-somebody was aggrieved, and
Morse soon found that he was a party
to the disagreement. Then he found
that his new friends did not want him
20 nght-begged him not to flght-took
hold of him and held him. He was very
valiant and struggled to free himself to
fight somebody, he did not know just
who-but somebody. Then presently
1t was all over. and nobody was hurt,
and the good fellows scattered, and
Morse went nome. A little later he
discovered that his diamonds we're
missing.
He has offered q reward of $50 for
their recovery. He is lucky to have the
nifty.
