of roads as stated and creates three
new classes, the rates applicable to
which on and after Oct. Is, shall be as

TARRED, TARRIED AT TRYsr.
Practical Joker Had Fun With the
WOoers and WOoed on Bridge,
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
Bloomfield, N. J., July 24.-There is
much indignation among the young
residents of the Morris neighborhood
section of this place over the action
of a practical joker who last night
poured tar all along the coping of the
stone bridge over the Yantacaw river
at Franklin avenue, near Broad street
The bridge spans a romantic part of
the stream and it is a favorite trysting
place.
All went we'll until one of the girls
suggested ice cream, and her escort
acquiesced. Then came trouble. As
he attempted to jump from his perch
his head went forward. but the rest
of his body refused to follow He
tried again, and this time there was a
ripping sound. followed by a chorus
of feminine shrieks. Then the young
man made a wild break for cover,
leaving his girl on the bridge.
When she tried to get off the rail
she found herself also helpless. BY
this time the others discovered that
they were all in a like predlcament. A
crowd gathered and had all manner of
fun at the expense of the unfortunate
ones. 1t was some time before those
on the bridge were able to release
themselves. and every one left some
memento Of the visit

ENGLAND NEEDS RlFLEMEN.
Rudyard Kipling Predicts General
Revival of Target Practice Among
the Britishers.

London, Aug. 2.-Rudyard Kipling
made a characteristic speech at the
opening of a miniature rifle range at
Sydenham, county of Kent, to-day. He
said in the course of his remarks:
Recent experience has taught us
that we must not allow a whole pop
ulation to grow up in ignorance of
shooting. Rife shooting should be
taught the same as are the A B C's.
Such a course would not produce bar
barians. Everything must be subor-
dinated to shooting quickly"
Mr.. Kipling prophesed that rifle
ranges would soon exist throughout
the land, and that those now being OPP
Grated merely indicated the beginning
of a very large movement, the end of
which no man could foresee, and the
force of which no man could limit
The speaker concluded expressing the
hope that the next time we see fit
to love England with that love of the
past thirty months, Englishmen may
not be found totally ignorant of those
accomplishments, which If they do not
secure affection, secure respect"

That American women are growing
more slender and frail is too frequent
to any observer for argument. Slender
ness and fragility are the words that
best describe the typical girl of to-day.
From an aesthetic standpoint, perhaps,
all this is an improvement on the more
sturdy and buxom woman of two gen.
erat1ons ago. but from the doctors
standpoint is a rapid degenration.
These delicate creatures are easy to
get sick. hard to keep we'll and very
difficult to cure when sick.

especial study and thought, and has
done much toward remedying the mat

A LECTURE ON INJUNCTI0NS.
Judge Keller Mobiles His Tone Con-
siderably in Talk to Defe ndants.

sfderabiy In Talk to Defenuants'
Charleston. w. Va, Aug. .2.-The trial
of John Richards and others charged
with contempt of court came to close
to-day and Judge Keller fixed Aug. Il
as the date for the arguments. All
the defendants were released on their
own recognizance until that time. Be-
fore adjourning court Judge Kellar
called the numerous defendants be-
fore him and delivered a lecture on
the question of proper behavior while
injunctions are pending. 1t forecasts
his judgment in the matter. Judge
Kellar said:
1T is commended that the court has
no jurisdiction to grant these injunc-
lions. 1t is possible that that may be
shown. On the other hand it is entirely
valid and if they are, then it behooves
all those who have any knowledge of
them to respect them.
Now, a great deal has been said
here about the efforts of certain people
to learn the extent of these injunctions
and what they mean, and about the
inability on the part of some of them
to gather any meaning with regard to
them beyond the fact that they were
not to trespass upon Mr.. Collins prop
erty.
Now, the trespass notices had that
effect. Any man has the right at any
time to post trespass notices upon his
property, and to require all persons to
seek permission before they go on it.
He does not need the aid of the court for
Ia ie- eNN. - l.
domain, and may post it with trespass
notices at any time, and it becomes
the duty of every man having knowl-
edge of these trespass notices to take
note of them.
Extent of the Restraint.
THE bill presented such a state of
affairs as in the belief of the courts
at the time, authorized and required it
TO issue its injunction. That injunc-
ton was not designed to restrain any
lawful right to any United Mine
Worker under the circumstances that
then existed, it was designed simply
TO protect the rights of the persons
who desired to labor peacefully. The
question, and the hard question for
you men, to solve, and for the court to
solve, is as to what you precisely may
do at any given time without violating
NAAS hAsaAito " lhOSG AIlClb WIN uSSlI z
TO work peacefully.
The court says in the injunction that
you shall not make them afraid; that
you shall not intimidate those men.
THE court practically goes further;
It has the right to, if the curcum-
stances are properly made in the bill
and says you shall not force unwhole-
some persuasion upon them under these
circumstances.
Now, at any time you meet these
men in the ordinary course, you have
the right to persuade them to join
your union, perfect right, and If you
can show to them it is to their inter-
est to join your union, why, do it,
The Injunction lays down no limit
of nearness, but it does say that you
must not get close enough and act as
body of men in such a way as to
intimidate or interfere with those peo-
pie who desire to work. In other words
you must not make them afraid; you
must not de things that will cause
them to fear the consequences, to leave
their work or to be deferred from do
ing their full duty as they may See it."
