BISHOP AGAINST TOBACCO.
IF Raleigh introduced it Into England it is
Pity His Ship Did Not Sink"

Bishop Nicholson, of the Milwaukee
Episcopal Diocese, has created a mild
sensation among the priests and laity
of the diocese by issuing sort of pro-
nunciamento against the use of tobacco.
The pronunciamento is submitted as an
object lesson, and while the Bishop de-
fers to the good judgment of the priests,
without decreeing against the use of to-
bacco in so many words, nevertheless 1t
has created quite a considerable stir.
The Bishop maintains that there IS
not one trace OF spiritual help or ply
steal gain from the use of tobacco, but
untold evils have resulted from its use.
The extent to which the Bishops abb
horrence toward tobacco goes is evil
dcnced by the statement that "if it is
true that Sir Walter Raleigh introduced
tobacco into England, tbs a pity that
the ship that carried him did not sink
in the ocean,"

UP TO THE SPEAKER.

A few days ago certain Republicans
caused it to be widely heralded that the
Appalachian Park bill would probably
be defeated because Senator Bate, a
Democrat, was opposed to it. The bill
has now passed the Senate, thanks to
the efforts of our two Senators.
Now the bill will become a law if the
Republican House does as we'll. 1t is to
be hoped that Mr.. Moody, Mr.. Black
burn and other leading Republicans can
induce the majority to let the bill be
considered.

Electric Light Best For the 1 yes
(Medical RecOrd.)

a Russian specialist has decided that,
contrary to the general opinion
electric light pays less havoc with the
eyes than other forms of artificial light.
He bases his deductions on the fact that
disease and damage to the eye are pro-
portioned to the frequency of the closure
of the lids. He found that the lids close
in a minute 6.S times with candle light,
2.S times with gas light, % times with
sun light and is times with electric
light.

In speaking of the large reward that
Governor Avcock has offered for the ar
rest of those who participated in the
Salisbury lynching, the New York World
says: 1.-THE action of Governor Aycock,
of North Carolina, in offering reward
of $780, 600 for the arrest and conviction
of the lynchers who put two negro lads
to death at Salisbury last week is most
commendable. This is one of the largest
rewards ever offered in any State for
the purpose of bringing criminals to
justice, and perhaps the very largest.
North Cardinals Executive has set an
example which, il followed generally in
all States where lynching barbarities
occur. would soon put an end to them ;"
The action of the Governor has been
generally commended throughout the
South. In fact, we have yet to learn of
one single instance where the Chief
Executives prompt action and liberal
reward were not approved of.
