An unsophisticated young minister
in rural Pennsylvania, recently orda
ined, not long ago wrote to atheolog-
ical professor in Philadelphia as fol-.

find it hard to utter my thoughts
clearly and forcibly. Ihave decided
therefore, to take a course of in
structions in speaking, and learn
ing from the papers that there are
great many speak -easies in your
city, l would be obliged if you would

lessor broke the news to him as
euphemistically as possible that a

Editor Ed. L. Peet. of the Grants

It was reported in the village last
week that one of the newspaper men
of this place was appointed post
master. AS yet q commission has
not been received at this Office
Can't say if lightning has struck the

tent advertising of the advantages
of the northern ounties for sheep
raising is now bearing fruit and SUBJ

ern Wisconsin from other states to
engage in the sheep industry. The
bulk of advertising has been done

KENNEDY AND PAREsIs.

One Crammond Kennedy, who is de-
.scribed as a veteran Of the civil war and
a lawyer of Washington, has made his
charge at the windmill OF notoriety by an
attempt to prove that Gen. Funston
violated the rules of civilized warfare in
his capture OF Aguinaldo, and in COM
tnenting on what he is pleased to call
the forgery of Gen. Lacuna's name by
Gen. Funston, in order to deceive Agui-
naldo, suggests as a motto for our flag in
the Philippines. Funston and Forgery"
The fact is that the capture of Agui-
naldo has so bewiidered his American
admirers that they are clutching after
my straw other than the praiseworthy
achievement Of Funston, as an explana-
ton OF the capture. 1t is noteworthy
that the majority have fastened to in
sinuate that the Filipino leader was q
party to the transaction, while the pull,
ing minority still worship the "sasoir OF
the Philippines who once upon a time
saved" himself at the expense of his
countrymen, to the tune Of 100000
The cry seems to be anything to bring
discredit upon the American arms. The
Washington lawyer and veteran Of tht
civil war cites rules which are recognized
in civilized warfare, but takes care not
to hint the truth, that opr soldiers ar'
lighting sayages who have no regard il
the least for the rules of wal excep
where they can be construed to thei
own advantage. The regiment OF thi
veteran of the civil war" is not given

AT the Methodist conference. IN
Brooklyn last week, Rev. B. Adams OF
Bethel Conn, gave as a reason for the
falling off in church membership that
mothers keep their daughters out OF
church for fear that they will be unable
to make good matrimonial alliances Ii
they first embrace Methodism. Con-
tinuing. he said that Methodist
mothers fear that if their daughters do
not play euchre and dance, they will not
get good husbands. The conference ap-
plauded the speaker, and we feel it in
cumbent upon ourselves to congratulate
him for having at last discovered what
should be taught in the primary school
of theology. The example set by the
founder of the Christian religion showed
not the faintest sign of coercion and
could be followed advantageously by pro
fessed expounders OF his doctrine.
