SHOWS CRIME IS ABHoRRED.
Chicago Pastors View of Lynching
For Awful Offenses.

CHICAGO, June 2S.-''I am no advo-
cate of lynchina or of mob law, but would
rather see L community wrought to the
highest pitch over crimes that would seem
impossible this side of hell than to remain
apathetic. was the declaration of Rev.
DR.. W. \. Bartlett at the fashionable
First Congregational Church here today in
a prelude to his sermon on 'Lynching
From Another Point of View. DIR. Bart
lett continued.
III have seen so many sermons, edlto-
rails and resolutions denouncing tynching
and mob law that one gets the impression
that the citizens who hang or burn the de
strover of life. home and all that is held
sacred by womanhood, are the race offend
ers rather than the monster whom they
destroy We seem to be 50 absorbed with
the majesty of this vague term law that
the notion appears to prevail that the real
criminals are those who do not wait for
legal processes and the violator Of woman
hood is the abused party.
We Shudder at the torture Of the
criminal who is burned, but apparently for
yet to shudder for the innocent girl. whose
mental and spiritual agony is teniold great

IMPROVEMENTS AT TOGUS,
Several Under Way Which Will Add
to Its Attractiveness.

The work of eXcavating the rather
unsightly and irregular pool known as
the duck pond, which is being done by
Contractor Lynn, is only the beginning
of extensive improvements which are to
be made at that end of the camp. This
pool is to be deepened, it's shores graded.
and a fine stone dam construed at it's
lower end according to plans drawn
by Chief Engineer Lewis. Right here,
also. the south gateway for the main
entrance. for which appropriation was
made at the last session of Congress
and for which plans have been drawn
by Architect John Calvin Stevens of
Portland, will be erected. The plans
call for an imposing, and from an
architectural point of view, decidedly
artistic structure of cut stone and brick
work. which will be placed across the
end of Rockland street at it's intersec-
ton with the Hallowell road. The mas
sive granite posts at either side of the
roadway will be connected, when de-
sirable. by wrought iron chains hooked
together in the centre. Each of these
posts will be surmounted with orna-
mental electric light fixtures, and a
solid wall will extend for several feet
on either side. One of the posts is to
be SO constructed as to form the side
of u small cosy ornamental lodge,
large enough, however, to make
commodious sentry box, which will be
provided with a chimney and will con-
tain stove so that it can be heated
during cold weather. The seat in the
sentry box for the accommodation Of
