ought to champion better system OF; pub

dividing expenditures among many COM

ly,is vicious, and there is little economy
in 1t. The whole matter of expenditures
could be simplified and economy could be
promoted by concentrating the considera-
tion Of expenditures in the hands Of a
budget committee, acting upon the esti-
mates of the government departments.

During the past week there was much
international fraternizing in Winnipeg
between American capitalists owning Ca
madam lands, their guests and the men,
bers of the Minnesota Bankers Associa-
tion on the one hand and the hospitable
citizens of Winnipeg and other places, on
the side of the Canadians. This is one OF
those good things that it is difficult to get
too much of. There is closer similar
ity between the people OF western Canada
and the American northwest than there
IS between eastern Canadians and Amer
leans. Here there are neither rivers nor
lakes to form natural boundaries. The
business ties between the two peoples
are growing from day to day in strength
and number. They will soon have many
common interests which cannot fail to
exert powerful influence on policy at
both Washington and Ottawa. Mutual
acquaintance and understanding will
strengthen the promotion of these COM
mon interests.

A LAUDABLE P1IRposn

IN his speech at Harvard last week
Presi dent Roosevelt said that he had told,
Governor Taft of the Philippines that if a.
vacancy should occur in the supreme
court the latter would not be appointed
to 1t because the president wished him
to stay in the Philippines To this Cow
ernor Taft replied:
Mr.. President, 1t has always been my dream
to be in the supreme court, but If you should
offer NE a Justiceship now, and at the same
time congress should take off entirely my SAL
ary as governor, should go straight back TO
the Philippines nevertheless, for those people
need me and expect me back and believe |
won't desert thnl.
There IS refreshing statement, This
generation has so readily pleaded guilty
to the charge of commercialism, that It
should make special efforts to emphasize
those incidents that show that even with
us wealth and position are not every
thing and that we have still among us
men who will sacrifice ambition and
wealth to the doing of duty and the per-
formance of an lilly rewarded task.
The man who made such speech can
and it is certain that no government OF
which he is the head will lack for an
honorable and humane spirit.
The problems the Spanish American
war has brought us have given us some
pleasant experiences along with their en-
barrassments and hard work. The ad-
ministration of Cuba gave us Genera
Leonard Wood and the administration o1
the Philippines has discovered Governor
Taft. Both of these men possess in q
high degree executive ability and the
power to conciliate alien races. Bott

for good, honest material in constructing
governmental machines for our dependen

to duty above the more selfish considera'
tions that animate most men and woult

The EMPEROR-KING AND EMPIRE

possibilities of relapse. There is talk OF
a September coronation and the carrying
out of the imposing program which was

it is likely to be carried out in modified

Certainly, the exultation over the
termination of the South African war was
natural, for Fnglishmen were aware that
their neighbors across the channel had
predicted and were awaiting the fall and
dissolution of the British empire The
eagles we're gathering to pounce upon the
quarry But, after spending 300,00O,Oo0
a year fighting the Beers, at the round up
it was found that British credit had not
been seriously impaired, that Britain was
good Jfor any amount of money in the
market and had what she did not have
before-the ability to put a hundred thou
sand seasoned veterans anywhere she hac
occasion to use them. During the de-
preston of last week, when the kings life
was in jeopardy, consols declined few
points. but that was simply sentimental
movement, for there Is not the slightest
reason why the failure Of the coronation
or even the death of the king should have
any Injurious effect upon the financial
markets of England and Of the outside
world The failure of the coronation was
simply the failure Of a spectacular re-

HAD NO AUTHORITY.
Judge Hazen Refuses to Enjoin
MOIesting Sunday Theater.

Judge Hazen decided today that he
had no jurisdiction to issue an injunction
to prevent the city authorities from IN
tersering with the Sunday theatrical
performances.
L. NJ Crawford secured a temporary
restraining order to prevent the city
authorities from arresting him or any
members of any company playing at the
Crawford theater on Sunday, and from
making any attempt to stop such per
formances. Judge Hazen heard the ar
guments some time ago. Mr.. Crawford
wished the Injunction to be permanent.
Judge Hazen decided today that he had
no Jurisdiction to issue such an injunc-
ton, as he is sitting as the judge of
court of equity and that a court OF
equity has no right to issue an iniune-
ton to prevent criminal proceedings
An injunction would have prevented the
police from arresting Crawford or any
one else and charging them with yio-
lating the city ordinance governing
Sunday theaters.
Judge Hazen's decision now leaves the
situation open for a fight in the courts
between the city and Crawford. The
police can now arrest Crawford under
the city ordinance and prosecute him in
the police court. If he is convicted the
case can be appealed to the district
court, and then to the supreme court,
and in such an event the legal battle
would be over the legality OF the ordl-
nance. IL Al fzzi q

COYOTE HUNT PLANNED.
Christmas Sport for Dogs and Men ir
the Wyoming Cattle Region.

Hanna Wyo., Dec. 24-Christmas at
Hanna will be a day of exciting sport for
dogs and men Hanna is the coyote CEN
ter of the cattle region and has a pack
of well trained wolf dogs which are used
to hunt the coyotes.
Attracted by the offal in the slaughter
pens on the outskirts of the town coyotes
gather from miles around, frequently ap-
pearlng on the adjacent hills. When one
is sighted a horseman mounts and is off
on a run to circle around the animal
and head it toward town. At the same
time the ever-ready pack starts after the
coyote. followed by half the men and all
the boys of the town.
The quarry is turned by the horseman,
and the swift greyhounds leading the
pack. take quick advantage of the angle
thus gained. Closing in on their prey one
of the greyhOunds seizes the coyote by
the jaw and the other by the launches
and throw it to the ground.
Brought to bay the coyote shows fight
until the collies and bulldogs, which have
been trailing along behind arrive and
put an end to its sufferings. The Joy of
the Hanna hunters and dogs is to start
an old male coyote, for then the fight is
stubborn and fierce. An old male coyote
will stand off one dog and often escape

has arranged a polychrome edition of

mons Mines before the Johns Hopkins
Pathological society today. During the
discussion that followed Professor Hen
ry NJ. Shepard took the stand that the
authorized version of the Bible issued in
Shakespeare's day, which was great
ornament of literature. should be ac-
copied as completely today as in the
past He questioned the right and pol
icy of making q modern version of the
Scripture
DR.. Haupt admitted that the author
lied version of the Bible was one of the
greatest monuments of English litera-
ture, but said it could not be classed
as an original work, but as a translation
from another language Therefore. he
argued that everyone who was capable
had a right to prepare a version. Profess
sOr Haupt said King Solomon's mines
were located in southern Spain and
southwestern Africa. The silver came
from Spain and the ophir gold from the
ElDorado north of the former South At
rican republics.

John Healy of the New Haven board of
education called at the home of Mar
garita Felic of 207 Foster street today
to find out why her 13-year-old child
had not been to school for the past week
or ten days. s, i.jEEEFE5
She's been married" explained the
mother of the little one to the officer.
Married." exclaimed the officer.
Why, she's but a child"
The officer, believing that some one
was playing a joke on him and thinking
that perhaps the mother was anxious to
protect her daughter from the penalty
of truancy, decided to investigate the
story of the alleged marriage.
In city hall he found that marriage
license had been taken out on December
that permitted Marguerite and Pas
quale Monaco, aged % years, to be mar
ried The ceremony was performed the
next day and all the time that Tru.nt
Officer Healy was looking for the sup
posed truant, she was Mrs. Monaco and
was attending to her household duties
in a nicely furnished home next door
to her parents residence.
