But when the little white-gowned form

questioned with loving rebuke concerning
the interruption.
"But did think what l was sayin' ,

The Gospel and Recreation.

good tennis court and croquet
grounds will be in readiness tor use from
the beginning OF the meeting. A good
ball ground will be available not far
away. The Lyndonvile Golf Club very
kindly tenders the use of its links to
lovers of the game who are attendants
on this meeting. Swings will be put up.
For rainv days there will be a table
tennis, crokinole, checkers and chess tor
those who desire; and other forms OF
legitimate recreation will be provided, so
that along with other and higher benefits
of the meeting, real outing may be en-
loved by those who possibly have no
other vacation. Bring tennis shoes and
tennis rackets il you have them, and
materials for base ball and the other
games. 1t is expected that there will be
nothing out of harmony with the spirit
and purpose of the meeting, which is to
help every one possible, physically, ment-
ally and spiritually.
The above is not from a circular OF a
tennis or golf tournament, but from the
official program of the Lyndonville camp
meeting. Presiding Elder Lewis believes
in the building up of the body as well as
the mind and the soul and has wisely
provided for plenty of recreation. He is
a lover of outdoor sports himself and has
arranged for recreation period each day
of the camp meeting. 1t is healthy
sign to see a little recreation mixed II
with the gospel. Henry Ward Beeche

munity than dyspeptic, be his religio

Vermonter Legal Adviser of Japan.

Baron Komura, the japanese pleni-
potentiary, arrived in New York Tues
day, July, rs, and he and his retinue &C.
cupy suite of Is rooms on the fourth
floor of the Waldorf Astoria. Japa-
nese flag flies from one of the windows,
and by its side foated last week Tuesday
the state flag Of Vermont. This some
what noticeable circumstance is explain
ed by the fact that the Vermont flag was
displayed in honor of H. W. Denison, a
native Vermonter, who has been for
twenty-five years the legal adviser OF the
foreign office OF Japan. A communica-
ton in the New York Tribune, from a
Japanese writer, contains the following
sketch OF Mr. Dennison:
"Mr. q. W. Denison is with the mis-
sion. On the 18th of May, 1847, he was
born in Guildhall, VT. In the trouble
some days of '64 he was clerk in the
war department in Washington, and a
little later he was transferred to the
treasury department. At the same time
he was student in the law department
of Columbia college, in Washington, ID.
c. In 1869, when the Toxic govern
ment was one year old, he came to Nip
pom as the vice consul at Kanagawa.
After almost ten years in the consular
service of his own country he resigned
and practiced law in Yokohama. In
May, 1880, he accepted the invitation OF
acting as legal adviser to the foreign
office OF Nippon, and in that capacity he
saw the historic days of Shimonoseki
treaty. Sometimes, at his breast, you
can see the souvenir of those days; it is
the Grand Gordon of the Order of the
Sacred Treasure which his majesty, the
Emperor OF Nippon presented to him as

Protecting The Trout.

1t is probably true that no Vermont
journal has done more to preserve our
fish and game than the Montpelier Argus
and Patriot and their recent editorial on
the new trout law shows clearly the adj
vantages Of protecting the fish in already
depleted streams. Editor Atkins says:
Vermonts trout season is at an end.
While no large catches have been re-
ported about the state the fishing has
been fairly good and many brooks have
been found to be fairly swarming with
yearlng trout. Cutting the season short
one month gives the brood trout better
protection in the spawning season, while
the severe rains OF the last two or three
days of the season resulted in the saving
of many trout that are thus lett for an
other years sport.

Thus the entire month of May showed
a total of but nine drunk cases" in the
court. Compare this with Montpelier
under license where there were A; with
Rutland under license, where there were
"a cases sent to the House of Correction
that month; with st. Adams which had Is
drunks before it's magistrate in one week
of the month; or with any other large
license town in the state and the fallacy
of the theory that license lessons drunk
enness becomes apparent. And the record
for June was still better, as Justice Wor-
cester had to pass upon but six cases the
entire month, a number no larger than
some license towns in the state have had
In single day.
Besides this St. Johnsbury compares
very favorably with st. Adams, Burling-
ton, and Montpelier, in that, tor years
past, no women have been arrested for
drunkenness and no cases of wife beating
have come up tor trial.
Were the facts at hand for full de-
tailed comparison, between conditions
here and in Rutland, the scale city Of the
western side Of the state, the results
might be even more startling. In Rut'
land the men moulding public sentiment
for the last 25 years have favored the
practice OF drinking and have winked al
the violation of the law; in st. Iohnsbury
the leading citizens have stood for clear
life and an enforced law. Each place is
now reaping the fruits o. what it ha:
sown, and the facts cited, let alone those
yet to be published, show conclusively
that the st. Johnsbury method makes
for both business prosperity and mora
welfare. Without quarries, with less
', railroad facilities, at longer distance

adventitious aids than possessed by tn

Chinese Exclusion.

Apropos of the question of Chinese
labor on the Isthmus, it is worth while
to note the great revival of the discussion
of the exclusion of the Chinese from this
country. A situation existed which had
come to be so intolerable to the educated
Chinese that they had begun to find
a way very effectively to call our atten-
ton to the barbarity to which we have
been subjecting them. The exclusion of
Chinese laborers is one thing, and the

The attempt to inject the liquor ques'
ton into the next gubernatorial cam.
paign should fail Of its purpose. Local
option with the high license feature is
working we'll in Vermont. The great
majority of towns are strictly in the pro-
hibiton class, and those where liquor is
sold under sanction of the law will be
held strictly to account by the local con-
stituencies. There is no occasion for en-
tering at this time into discussion OF
the liquor law as campaign issue. II
the present law continues to work well it
will become part of the fixed policy OF

But one policeman is needed to pre-
serve the peace of the scale city. At one
time it was thought that more might

single blue.coated patrolman represents
the majesty OF the law and the authority
