From the reports all over the state it
looks very much as if Lent We're being
observed more this year than ever be-
fore in New England. And it is not so
many years ago when plenty of people
would have been Mortified at the idea.
-Roston Advertiser.
1t must be admitted, however. that
no small part of the greater OBJ
servance which Lent now receives is
due to the faster pace which society is
compelling its devotees to travel. After
three months of the stress and strain
Of the winters social whirl, the tired
the rest ana relaxation for which Lent
affords the excuse.

One of the things most prominently
brought out in the investigation of the
coal strike was the evil of child labor
in the mines. 1t is an encoura cling and
helpful thing that both the miners
and the operators express a willingness
to unite in raising the age under which
boys shall not be allowed to work there
Such Il step will be in the interests of
humanity. The higher age limit
means more years in school, and more
schooling means better citizenship and
improved conditions in general.

DR.. Richard ]. Calling has died sud-
denly in New York, but the voice of his
famous gun is likely long to be heard in
the world. DIR. Calling did much to i'll
said tC have been a most mild-man-
nered and peace-loving man, and his
hope was that his weapon would make
the carnage of war so terrible that all
nations would avoid it. He was ma
tive of North Carolina and had reached
the age of So years. His first rapid
fire gun was invented for the use of the
Union Army during the Civil War.
The gatling gun exists today just
about as it was originally made. All
the rapid-fire guns of the. world n are
gatling guns save the Z maxim gum
which is creation original, with its
inventor. Sir Hiram Maxim. The pa
tents of the gatling gun expired after
II years, and it then became public
property. Different cou ries have
changed it's caliber and ..dve altered
its carriage or external parts posi-
bly,; but none of them have altered the
original mechanism of the interior, and
the gating gun of today feeds, fires
and extracts just as it did in the first
gun made in Indianapolis in 1862. The
operation of the gun with a crank was
something wholly new in firearms, and
it has never been improved upon for
rapid firing. It's speed is unlimited
and it is in almost universal use.

The appointment of Judge Day

The appointment of Judge Day to
the Supreme court and of Mr.. Cortel-
you to the new cabinet position show
how faithfully President Roosevelt is
keeping his promise to continue the
policy of President Mckinley. There
are many other evidences, but these
are concert instances which can be
pointed to, and they remind the coun-
try that our President keeps in scrupu-
lous remembrance the fact that he is
serving out the term of another who
was struck down at the post of duty
Eoth Day and Cortelyou were men
whom President Mckinley loved and
trusted, and they are just the men
whom he would have advanced to the
positions they now hold.

One of the latest yawps of the little
band OF "antis' was concerning
Mabini a former Filipino leader, who
has been held as a prisoner at Guam.
But Mabini refuses to be a martyr any
longer and has taken the oath of al
legiance. AS the refusal to take this
oath was the only reason of his con-
fnement. he will now be free man
and another anti issue vanishes into
thin air.

When March comes blust'ring past the

And shakes my little bed, at night,
| lie as still as any mouse
And cover up my head in fright.
He sweeps the sky with his rough brush
And swishes all the trees about;
shiver when feel his rush,
And round the corners hear him shout
Till remember springy things:
And lovely dstgs of springtime play:
March brings them all on his wild wings,
And so my fears fly fast away!

Maine hunters say that the smaller
fur-bearing animals in this State are
growing scarce and the buyers for the
large fur houses are complaining that
they can get few skins. Our laws
governing trapping are strict. although
for many years the slaughter of the
little fur-bearing animals was allowed
to go on unimpeded, and now a large
part of them have gone the way of the
beaver. The latter were nearly ex-
terminated. and closed season was
declared to save n few. if possible, and
the results SO far have been rather
satisfactory. The passing of the
smaller animals should serve as a les
son and demonstrate that it is neces-
sary to protect our big game more
closely.
