CLAW pigeons. She had shot few clam |
shells before but she knew this would
he harder because the shells are still, |
while the pigeons sail about In the air.
The gun was a little beauty, light
enough for her to lift easily and firm
against her shoulder. Rastus got
down behind his shelter. He raised
his black head above the boards.
Better shoot while dey's high up.

behind the shelter and sailed away into

her finger on the trigger, but some way
she did not seem to find the right time
TO fire, and the pigeon floated unshat-

Rastus' head popped up again.
"Nothing's the matter" she said. 1T

and she called Ready for the second

and also to give Rastus only so cents
instead of dollar. Up rose the second
disk, and she followed Its upward
course to where it began to descend.
Just then she saw two people coming
along the shore-Tom and Mabel. Here
was her chance to show them what she
could do. Down came the pigeon faster
and faster. She pulled the trigger,
stepped back. her ankle turned, and
down she went in a most ungraceful
heap.
The report of her gun. the twinge OF
her ankle and her fall all seemed to
come at once. and she thought, i've
shot myself" and then tried to laugh
as she realized the gun did not shoe
out of that end. Then everything turn

The king manifested much interest

whether or not Schwab sold his ma

honor enough for the king to shake the
hand that played the golden louis on

This country should be mighty proud
OF its democratic product, Nj. Schwab.
Why, he'd just as soon meet a king
as not. He's a NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. in
any kind of society, but he is certainly
being imposed on by the crowned
heads. OF course, if Mr. Schwab should

asked Ior. The professor win comply
with he request AZ once and sever his
CONNECTION with the divinity school in
which he has hong been a shining light.
There is no possible cause for complaint
~ the action of the Northwestern trus-

Professor Pearson has no more bust
ness teaching divinity students than a
bandit would acting as sheriff. He has
fOresworn his allegiance TO the most
sacred doctrines he was called upon to
expound and in justice to himself, as
Ven as to the university. lie cannot
longer remain where he is. Professor
Pearson may be right in his beliefs
and the trustees may be wrong in
theirs. Certainly both cannot be right.
and. therefore, IL was proper for those
in authority to insist that their beliefs
he taught.
1t is all very pretty TO make talks
for liberty. for advancement. for prog
ress i'm thought. That kind of doctrine
is pleasing, but it has no application to
the Pearson case. The professor is at
perfect liberty to prOmulgate his be

him in Chicago and aid him in estab-
fishing a new church. To retain him
where he is. however. would be to set

MUCH ADO OVER NOTHING.

CONSIDERABLE HUBBUB was
- kicked up in the senate Thursday
over the sedition laws enacted by the
Philippine commission. A feature to
which the most violent objection was
raised was the section requiring moth
ers 10 denounce their sons for treason,
sons their mothers, brothers their
brothers, and So on. The law is bad
one. There can be no doubt Of that,
but it is bad chiefly because it can
never be enforced.
Can any law compel a good mother
to denounce her son? Can any man or
any set of men enact a statute which
will wiring from the lips of devoted
son denunciation of the woman who
bore him? Would not the members of
the average family so cheerfully to the
rack and there let their bones DC shat
tered before they would reveal circum-
stances or acts calculated 20 bring one
of them to the gallows? This is as
suredly true of the American family,
and if the Filipino is worthy the indie
peDdence he should have, 1t is true of
the Filipino family also.
The statute will BE- a de>d letter. No
good can come from it and there is but
little possibility of harm The United
States is, indeed, reduced TO desperate
straits if it hopes to sUbjugate the
Philippines by such claptrap. 1t is ike
trying to frighten grown men with a
grisly head carved from pumpkin.
The Philippine commission wasted its
time when TIE law was passed. 1t Will
waste its time Il it attempts to enforce
the measure. There is no occasion for
the senate to excite itself about the
matter for a moment, FOR that, too, is
a waste of time.
