The Religious Revival

The remarkable religious revival in Wales and the
awakening in London has turned attention sharply to
similar possibilities in other parts Of the world The dis
tinguished English editor, w. T. Stead, and the eminent
American clergyman Newell Dwight Hills unite in the
prediction that the movement is to become world wide
Certainly the time is ripe. Mankind has been moving
at rapid pace. 1t is hard materalist age. The rich
have become and lavish and oppressive of the
poor and the poor have given themselves up very largely
to the thought of how to keep up with the procession
1t might seem to the unhinkng that this is the hard
est of conditions for religious enthusiasm break in
upon But the truth is that human swings ge the
pendulum, from the extreme of ideaism to that of
terialism and from materialsm back to dealism Its
attitude today is indication that it will be the same
tomorrow.
Worldwide materialism works its own cure. The
whole thing eventually breaks down of its weight
Mems minds become sureited and susceptible to other
and very different considerations. 1t is then remembered
and proclaimed that man does not live by bread alone
We may have much of the and here as to scken

OLDEST LEGISLATOR
IN THE WORLD

OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 19-The
Honorable David Wark, member
o fthe Canadian senate now in ses-
sion, will observe his one hundred
and first birthday tomorrow. Sena-
tor Wark is undoubtedly tibet oldest
legislator in the world. For over
half a century he has been promi-
nent in Canadian politics. He was
appointed senator when the sen
ate was formed on the confedera-
ton of the provinces in 1867, but
for over twenty years previously he
was a conspicuous figure in the
politics of New Brunswick. He in
troduced legislation into the New
Brunswick house which led to the
provinces exchanging their natural
products free of duty-legislatiOn
which had direct bearing on the
confederation of the provinces 20
years later.
Senator Wark is not a New
Brunswiker by birth, but he has
passed most of his life in that pro-
vince. He was born near London
derry, Ireland, in 1904. Shortly
after that event his parents emf
grated to Canada.
A little bowed down and a trifle
feeble, Senator Wark is still re-
markably well preserved consider
ing his years, and his speeches in
the senate are as lucid and cOnvinc-
ing as those of a man of fifty years
or younger.

Love and Sanity

The development of the affections have been made the
test of chids sanity in the public schools of New York
For four years DR.. Brann, of the board of education
has devoted his time solely to testing children S sanity
and classifying them.
Affection says DR.. Brann, Gin superintendent
proportion sign of feeble mndedness If child
rushes wildly into the and throws his about
the teacher declaring his most violent love for her. then
that child needs watching 1t is unnatural perform
''For this have had to segregate boys and
girls of the backward classes The boys sometimes love
the girls almost distraction In the middle of recita
ton boy will jump from his seat for indefnable
reason and embrace his pretty little girl ghbor This
really is of strongest proofs of feeble minded
ness"
The schooboy who violently loves his teacher may
indeed be suspected of popularity of mind. 1t is
as the expert so naivey says ian unnatural perform
ance.''
That it is evidence of smpe-mindedness however, is
proposition that rests entirely the authority of the
expert No others have had opportunity to observe many
instances of this unnatural performance.
According to ordinary observation, schooboys reuc
any accept the teacher necessary evil and strive to
keep at least the length of stick away from her.
And there be question that the boy who, Sin the
middle of recitation will jump from his seat for
indefnae and embrace his pretty little girl neigh
bor'' has something wrong with him.
Any boy who will embrace and kiss pretty girl for
some indeinabe reason when there many clearly
I defnabe Ones is surely deficient
But is not safe to jump too hastily to conclusions
in so delicate a matter.
1t is barely possible that the expert who appre
cate defnabe reason why boy kisses girl is him
self subject to mild suspicion of being of feee mind
Altogether development Of the affections is peculiar
test of sanity.
Abnormal development of any quality marks mental
unbaance But there is feebeness of mind in the
under development of qualities than in their de-
velopment.
This is particularly true to affection. It's presence
in generous quantity the soul and ilmnes the
mind with genial sunshine. The boy without affection is
lonely, halfdeveloped creature, that be
than simple nonentity if he does not harden into
criminaity The dividing distance between the oveess
boy and the criminal rs dangerously short.
Demonstrations of affection be carried too far of
But wholesome avection is the first essential of
sound mind and good character

NORTHERN LEAGUE
TO TRY AGAIN

FARGO, N. D., Feb. 1S.-The
baseball magnates of the Northern
league. which had a disastrous sea-
son of it last year, are in session
hree today to take the necessary
steps to reorganize on a sounder
basis for the coming year. The
adoption of an ironclad rule in re
gard to the salary limit and the
elimination of one or tow of the
poorest towns of last years circuit
is expected to give the balance on
the right side of the ledger the
coming season. The chief work of
the present meeting is to agree up
on the circuit. An eight club league
has been decided upon. OF the old
members Fargo, Grand Forks. Win
nipeg and Duluth will remain in the
league. st. Cloud and Brainerd will
be chosen as two of the new mem
bers and the remaining two will
probably be selected from among
Bismark, Little Falls, Wahpeton
and Breckenridge, each of which
has applied for membership.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 10
Tomorrow the order of the Knights
of Pythias rounds out it's fortieth
year and members of the order
throughout the land are preparing
to celebrate the anniversary in an
appropriate manner. They believe
they have good cause for jubilation
in the rapid growth and flourishing
condition of the order. Since II
was founded by Justine II. Rath-
bone in this city,. four decades ago,
the fraternity has spread to every
state and territory of the Union, to
Alaska. Cuba, the Hawaiian Islands
and several of the Canadian provin-
ces. The Uniform Rank and the
Rathbone Sisters, the women's
auxiliary. have likewise enjoyed a
marvellous growth. The present SUI
preme chancellor is Charles E.
Shiveley, of Indiana, who will hold
office until the next biennial en-
campment, which is to be held at
New Orleans in September, 1906.

BIG BOWLING TOURNEY ON

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Feb. 18-
Individual and team bowlers from
all over the country are gathered
In the Cream City to take part in
the annual meeting and tournament
OF the American Bowling Congress,
which begins in the exposition
building this afternoon to continue
through all of next week. From
New York, Philadelphia and Wash
ington in the east to Anaconda,
Denver and several Pacific coast
cities in the west the alley men
have swarmed here to compete for
the $4,000 in prizes, and to enroll
themselves as guests of the Mil
waukee bowling association, host
for the chompion tournament.
Experts at the game predict the
hottest kind of competition in all
the events, five-men, two-men and
individual. Chicago and Milwaukee
are naturally the most largely rep
resented and the bowlers from
these two cities are counting upon
Carrying away many prizes. But all
Ine way west from NEW OIh tut
cities have sent in delegations
and Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit
Erie, St. Joseph, Kansas City and
st. Louis men are here, anxious to
compare their skill with that OF
the better known players. The
sixteen alleys are new, fresh pins
are to be set up daily, and none OF
the competitors have been allowed
to practice upon the tournament
alleys. While these conditions will
initiate against high scoring, it is
expected that some records of the
American Bowling Congress will &c
by the board before the tournament
is concluded next Saturday.
Sessions of the American Bowl
ing Congress, controlling organiza
ton of the game, will begin next
Monday. That the sessions this
year are to be of much Importance
Is shown by the general demand
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-02-18

TO rrevision of certain rules and a
general shaking up of the congress
so that it may become a worthy
governing body of so important a
sport as bowling. The feeling that
the commercial side of the sport
hsould be forced into the back
ground is the concensus Of opinion
among the delegates here Just
what will be done cannot be stated
definitely, but it is certain that an
effort will be made to amend many
rules, among them the eligibility
rule, which is conceded to be. alto
together undesirable by those who
have tried t oorganize bowlers for
the national tournament.
Secretary Langtry of the Mil
waukee Bowling Tournament COM
pany has drafted a rule which he
will present to the delegates, as fol-
lows:
"To qualify as a contestant in an
annual tournament of the American
Bowling Congress, each bowler
shall become a member of the
American Bowling Congress at
least five days prior to the date of
the closing of the entries in &C
cordance with Rule of the by
laws.
ITO bowl on a team entered in
the annual tournament, each in
dividual bowler must be bona fide
member of the American Bowling
Congress in good standing.
ITO become a bona fide member
of the American Bowling Congress
it will be necessary for each indi-
vidual to join the American Bowl
ing Congress and pay annual dues
of 25 cents at least FIVE days prior
TO the date of the closing of entries
for an annual tournament.
"A bona flde member of the
American Bowling Congress may
bowl on any team he may enter
with, providing the other members
of the team are bona fine members

of the American Bowling Congress,
but each individual can enter with
but one five-man team, one two
man team and once in the individ-
ual contest of each congress"
The salient point of this proposed
amendment is that individuals and
not clubs become members Of the
American Bowling Congress, and
the cumbersom and unnecessary
city bowling associations are done
away with, following the lines of
the Amateur Athletic Union and
the League of American Wheel
men.
