IN THE SCHOOLS.


The people of Mineral Point aud
vicinity are manifesting deep and
general interest in the memorial SER
vices of 1902. The season opened on
Friday last, with appropriate eNer-
cises in which all the schools of the
city took part. These exercises, which
may be properly termed Grand
Army extension course in patriotism,
were attended by comrades of George
H. Legate Post, members of the Re
lief Corps, members of the school
board, and others.
At St. Mary's parochial school,
where the day was observed for The
first time, the building was appro-
priately decorated and an excellent
program was we'll rendered.
In the public schools exercises were
held as follows:
In the lst ward Primary room for
the lst and ID grades;
In the 4th ward Intermediate for the
1st, I'd, Sd and 4th grades;
In Prof John McGovern's room in
the 4th ward for the 5th, 9th, 7th and
Sth grades;
In Miss Cummings and Miss
Marr's room in the ID ward for the
3D., 18th, 5th, 9th and 7th grades.
Also in the High school, report of
which is given in the High School
notes published in another column.
Brief addresses were made by com
rades of the Grand Army and men,
bers of the School Board. In their
remarks Commander j. c. Martin and
Comrade w. H. Bennett, both of whom
have regularly attended these eXer-
cises for years, declared that the de-
corations throughout all the schools
were the most elaborate which they
had yet witnessed, and highly com
plimented the programs and their rem
dering.

On Sunday morning at 9:30 o'clock
members of the Post and the Corps
met at their hall and together pro-
ceeded to the Primitive Methodist
church, where the pastor, Rev. John
Hardcastle, preached an eloquent me-
mortal sermon overlooking with ad-
monitions to Christian patriotism.
The large auditorium was beautiful
ly arranged appropriate for the day.
The services opened with an APP
pirate hymn and select reading of
national character. The male quar-
tette rendered very fine patriotic
selection that touched the hearts of
all present, especially the veterans.
The choir sustained their excellent
reputation in the rendition of a most
beautiful anthem.
The text of the sermon was from
Jer. At; CT, and the subject: "The
Mission of the Sword, or the Strug-
giles and Triumphs of Human Lii
berty."
The service closed with the national
hymn, my Country, tits of Thee. "

TRINITY CHURCH.
The Post and the Corps, as individ-
uals, at the suggestion of their officers
and at the invitation of the Rector,
attended Trinity Episcopal church
last Sunday evening. There was a
large congregation present. The
vested choir rendered in highly sat
isfactory manner the chants and the
hymns of the Evening Prayer. The
national hymn was sung with fine
effect. The offertory, a solo, was
well sung by Herman Parmley.
The Rector's sermon was on Mas
tership. He spoke of its conditions.
Masters are born, then they must be
awakened to this fact by some great
cause in which they obliterate them
selves. He illustrated this by the
careers OF Grant, Sherman and Sheri-
dan. While the war did not make
them, it awakened their powers. And
so the rank and file OF the armies Of
1861: before they did not know how
strong, brave, patriotic they could be,
but it was there all the time. 1t need
ed only the touch Of this great duty to
kindle the heart and TO consume the
passions Of the lower self; and so
they became the masters Of the destiny

Old London street Names.

A writer in the London Argus gives
the following peculiar old street names,
with the modern substituted:
Adam : n Digging yard - st. Peter
street.
Aggat's passage - Cutler street
Houndsditch.
Alphabet court-Clare Market.
BaalzephOn street-Long lane, Der
'nOndsey.
Bully Rag row Bethnal Green.
Jealous row-St. George's-in-theE East.
Antigallican passage-Temple Bar.
Lally Pot lane-FOster lane.
The derivations of these names, con-
tinues the writer, would be an inter
esting study. but think it would be
found that in a large number of in
stances the love of eccentricity had led
to the selection.

The Way to End the Trusts.

The intelligent voter should take n
fall out of the trusts. There is one
way, and one way only, to deal n blow
at these gigantic combinations which
are rapidly acquiring control of all
the great industries and all branches
of trade and commerce, and that is
to vote against the political party
which fosters them and defends them,
and for which these cormorants pro-
vide the campaign funds. The fact
is that the trusts own the republican
party-not all the individuals compos-
ing that party, but its organization
and its office holders. The republican
party will not and dares not do any
thing to curb their power. No repub-
lican congress or legislature ever
made any law against trusts that was
anything but n sham and fraud.
If a republican congress is elected
next Tuesday the trusts win be more
aggressive and more arrogant than
ever, and with good reason. They will
claim, and be justified in so doing,
that the country is with them, and
will proceed to steal the $3.50, 900. 900
of ship subsidy. They will forge new
chains for Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines, so that they may plumber
the people of those islands with COM
plete immunity; they will pass the

Manner a Dead Load to the Republic
can Ticket.

For CLERK of the supreme court the
republicans ought to take off Chris.
Manner, or beat him so bad that Lor-
inner won't attempt to work the 'yel-
low dog" scheme on them again. Most
of the justices of the supreme court
are republicans and not likely to be
prejudiced against Manner. They
have had him for clerk of the north
ern division and know how he does.
This is the way they speak of him:
Manner is incompetent and negli-
gent. His election would be a mon
strous outrage upon the state. the bar
and our court. He is seldom in the
court room or his office, simply COM
ing to draw his fees
For the people of the state of Hi
nois to force Manner upon us as our
sole responsible executive and conf
dental officer would he an outrage
beyond belief"
I'VE should have n clerk who can
be our trusted confidential agent, one
who can be in possession of our Sc
crets; man of dignity who can COM
mand the respect and confidence of
the bench. The feeling against Ma
mer is unanimous among the mem
bers of the court
These are the expressions of all the
members of the court, and should
control the vote. Manner would get
S15, 900 or more i'm fees every year.
and never go near the Office except
to draw his money, leaving n couple
of irresponsible clerks TO do all the
work. Certainly no one ought to EN-
barrass the supreme court with an
incompetent and obnoxious clerk.

Punishment In Persin.

Among the Persians the usual mode
of punishment is the bastinado, from
which men of the highest rank are not
exempt. 1t is inflicted with very great
severity, frequently so as to render the
sufferer almost a cripple for life. The
victim is thrown upon his face and each
foot is passed through loop of strong
cord attached to 4 pole, which is raised
horizontally by men, who, twisting it
round, tighten the ropes and render
the feet immovable. Two eXecutioners
then strike the sole alternately with
switches of the pomegranate tree well
stepped in water to render them sup
pie. y store of these switches is gem
orally ready for use in the pond which
adjoins the courtyards of the houses of
the great. The punishment frequently
lasts for an hour or until the unfortu-
nate victim faints from pain.

The republican Chicago Tribune adj
mits, after a careful examination of
conditions throughout the state. that
the next Legislature will be surely
democratic in the lower house unless
the republicans can elect about 30
members of the house in Cook coun-
~. The republicans cannot by any
possibility elect so many in Cook. All
of which ought to encourage demo-
Gratis to get out their vote in the
country and give us n chance To find
out what has become of the peoples
money which republican officials have
been stealing.

a child of Mrs. George T. Benson,
when getting his usual Saturday
night bath, stepped back against a

The child was in great agony and his
mother could do nothing to pacify
him. Remembering that she had n
bottle of Chamberlain Pain Balm in
the house, she thought she would try
it. In less than half an hour after
applying it the child was quiet and
asleep, and in less than two weeks
was well. Mrs. Benson is a well

TACTLESS FANNY.
Janauschek'S Reason For Opening

Janauschek's Reason For Opening
Her Season In Syracuse.
A Syracuse man tells a story of Nine.
JanauSchek when she was n prominent
star. The willy advance agent went TO
Syracuse week or so before the local
theater opened there for the season
and proceeded to fill up the guileless
newspaper men with the statement
that Janauschek had said that she
would oGen her season in that place or
not at all. Her manager wanted Chi
cagn. but offered to compromise ON
Boston or Philadelphia, but the ma
dame was firm.
Naturally Syracuse was delighted at
the honor. Janauschek got pages of
advance notices, and when the opening
night came the theater was packed as
never before.
After the first act an ambitious re-
porter went behind" to interview
Mime. Janauschek.
Syracuse feels very proud that you
have started here this season" he
said, land my paper would like TO tell

How to Read History.

Perhaps the best way to read history
is to take up the life of some great fig
ure that attracts our imagination and
be drawn by that into the study of the
general stage upon which he was only
a single actor. Certainly it is not
good plan to begin with those elabo-
rate documentary histories in which
you cannot see the wood for the trees.
1t is better to be wrong in n few of
your facts or even contract Il bias from
some partisan historian than to lose
yourself in morass of documents,
says Success.
The best histories are the widest
If they occasionally lead you astray,
you can always correct them by the
more sober colored chronicles. Macau-
lay may have been prejudiced, and so
may Froude, and so undoubtedly was
Carlyle; so, again, was Gibbon; yet,
none the less. these are the great his
torians, the historians who set you up
ON the peaks of time and enable you
to see history as it lies beneath in wide
views and broad masses.

raise the tariff still higher on coal

production of which they have mo-

And who will have right to com
plain? Surely not the people who,
with their eyes wide open, vote to
keep the party of the trusts in power.
