fl SIFOUTER.

A court at Columbus, Ohio, the other day issued an injunction against Broth- CT Isaac Tenant of Mount Gilead church 10 restrain him from worshipping in his Brother Tenant to interject Amen in tI1underous tone and at short inter- vals into the prayers of the other breth- ren. The trustees of the church didn't like Brother Tenants way of indicating his enthusiasm and so they went to court and got the injunction.
 As we haven't heard Brother Tenant shout we don't know whether the trus- tees are justified or not. But it is pos sible they are too sensitive. and it is possible that they are too much in love with modern ways. There was time, and not so very long ago either. when shouting was not only tolerated in many meeting houses, but encouraged. And it added much to the interest Of the meetings. There were shouters in those days who knew how to shout. They shouted appropriately and encouraging ly. It was joy to hear them and to see how their shouting melted others to shout until the whole assembly warmed up and was in proper frame of mind. If Brother Tenant is a shouter like the good old shouters he doesn't deserve to be suppressed, even if his shouting did disturb some who wanted to worship the Lord more quietly than he or the choir does.

EEDED,

No State in the Union is more inter- ested than Connecticut in getting the benefits of the new international con- vention extending the time allowable for application for patents in certain foreign countries. At present the limit is six months from the date of filing an application in this country. The amend ed convention was ratified by the United States senate nearly year ago, but the enactment of law is necessary to car- ry the convention into effect in this country. Under the old rules the time in which inventors may file their patent applications in countries which are members Of the convention was six months, counting from the filing of the patent application in the home country, with an allowance os an additional month for the citizens and subjects of countries beyond the sea. The amend ment extends this time in all cases to twelve months, counting from the filing of the home application Provided an inventor files his patent application in the countries. which have signed the

RECONCELEp.

The coming in of Senor Mabini will not encourage the anti-imperialists. Mabini, who was at one time President of the Filipino Supreme court, and also Minister of Foreign Affairs in Aguin- aIdo's government, was one of the ir- reconcilable enemies oS the United States Government. and. during the progress of the instruction, was de- ported to the Island of Guam because he refused to refrain from revolution ary intrigues After the close of the organized rebellion he refused to take the oath os allegiance to the United States, and therefore he was refused re- admission to the Philippines, although the Government offered to give him transportation to any other part of the world. Now he has taken the oath of allegiance to the government of the United States, and allowed himself to be taken back to Manila as full- fedged American citizen.
 Some good people in this country will feel that they have been basely deserted by a little brown brother, but Mabini knows which side his bread is buttered on. He can't afford to be forever ir- reconcilable.

NOT MUCH EIKE CONNECTICUT.

It is queer what a difference a State line will make. Here in Connecticut we have a quiet, well-behaved legislature, doing important work with more neat ness and dispatch than even Connecti- cut legislatures have been in the habit of displaying. But over our eastern border in Rhode Island there is sad state of legislative things. The care- full and accurate Providence Journal feels moved to thus describe it: The General Assembly has dragged it's ses- sions through two months Cat five dol
 lars day) without single act to its
 credit that can fairly be called of gen.
 eral interest The Republicans keep
 measures bottled up in committees and
 force the Democrats to talk. As the
 legislature is full of young lawyers and
 country judges oratory is held cheap there. The session is not entertaining enough to draw many spectators. It is d uult SHOW, uitGIlitpSIICu any SuCu
 brilliancy as made the boss of Block
 Island famous-he was a Democrat then-When he delivered his Demos- thenian defence of the splitting habit.
 The Republican boss has not business enough on his hands to make his daily presence at the State House necessary,
 and he is staying away from the sher- ifs office more than ever.
 Too bad It has been said, though not truly, that the famous Rhode Island
 turkeys wax fat by going into Connect icut and eating tobacco worms. This State does not furnish Rhode Island with turkey-fat because the turkeys are
 not allowed to go across the border If they were they would undoubtedly be even fatter and more famous than they are. So Rhode Island legislators would be wiser and more famous if they would come over the border and learn of Connecticut legislators.

 are accustomed to our American patent procedure and who believe that the first inventor is always entitled to the for eign patents. in many cases, however, subsequent inventors and others who have obtained information concerning inventions have obtained valid foreign
 patents. With this extension of time in which to file foreign applications, in- Ventors will feel freer to place their irn-
 provements on the market on the filing of the United States application. and they will also be in better position to
 interest capital in their foreign patent applications.

It may have been only one of life's little ironies, says the London Express, that, when Mr. Beerbohm Tree was giving 8 picture at His Majesty's of '"The Last of the Dandies," there should have been a revival of foppism all over London. Carefully corseted young men may be seen daily swaggering down Piccadilly elaborately attired, with tight trousers, gorgeous waistcoats and slender -waisted frockcoats, and invari- ably crook-stick swinging on one arm. The eye-glass, which hangs by a slender cord, or is kept in a special small pocket, is by no means an assist ance to sight; and though, happily, it is no longer the custom to make up," vast sums of money are spent in soaps and shaving creams. hair lotions and even fine face powder.

the growth Of cooperative effort on the

full developments in that little country
within the later years OF the nineteenth
century have been In great measure
owing to the combined efforts for spe-

ample is being followed elsewhere in
France, In Hungary, in Germany and
In Ireland. Cooperation, however, un-
der these circumstances Is distinctly
different from what Is usually regard

Great Britain, as the latter owes It's
origin and its success to the combina-
ton OF consumers. In Denmark and
the other countries named combined
effort on the part of agriculturists Is
not for production or consumption, but
primarily for the purchase of what they

From wheat tests at the Nebraska ex-
pertinent station 1t is concluded that
durum or maearoni wheats yield better
than other spring wheats and that Al

Turkestan alfalfa was seeded with

About June IL at the Minnesota ex-

alfalfa plants began to blossom, part of
the leaves began to turn yellow and to
fall; hence the largest proportion of
leaves to stems existed just before the
blossoming period.
