a Profitable Meeting.

Last Sunday, Geo. w. Morrow state
superintendent of the ti-saloon league,
lectured in this village morning and
evening. Mr.. Morrow is very forceful
and pleasing speaker and cannot help
but strengthen the temperance cause
wherever he speaks. During his re
marks he stated that the four corner
stones of the saloon are the four A. 5,
ambition, avarice, appetite and apathy.
Ambition in the politician caused him to
enact laws that favored the saloon keep
er, and to cater to the vote controlled by
the liquor seller and manufacturer. 70
remedy this Mr. Morrow advised the
church people of all denominations to
unite and by their votes make the office
seeker see that it is to his advantage to
be with them, stating that it was his be-
lief that the politician would gladly be
with them if proven to his advantage
politically. Appetite could be controlled
only by the individual himself; 90 legal
restrictions would suffice; the heart and
soul must be made clean. Avarice in
the man who sold or manufactured the
liquor is the dominant factor in the
minds of those engaged in the traffic
and if the profits could be taken from
the business the greatest incentive to
continue in the business would be re-
moved Apathy was the stone upon
which the saloon rested and was placed
there by the temperance people them
selves, and in support of his contention
he cited the defeat of prohibition iu Yer
mont. Unless active measures are taker
in Van Buren, county the saloon mer
will prevail.
Mr.. Morrow urged that the next legis
/ lature be petitioned to enact the Hudson
local option bill, giving to the ward
township, village, or city as well as the
counties, the right to say whether or no
there should be liquor sold within it
borders. The speaker illustrated his
lecture with word pictures and statistics
that ought to appeal to all, and we be
lieve he strengthened the cause here
very much.

KNEW SOURCE OF THE IpEEs"
James Russell Lowell's Letter Reas
sured Mrs. Spofford

While James Russell Lowell was
ecitor OF the Atlantic Monthly he fire.
quently accepted stories written by
MRS. Harriet Prescott Spofford, with
whom he enjoyed a personal friend
ship. Mrs. Spofford, however, feared
that he might be taking them because
OF his interest in her and not for the
merit of her work.
She resolved to put the matter to a
test. Her handwriting was peculiar.
One of the most characteristic letters
was her d, to the end of which she
gave a queer little crook, toward the
left. In order to disguise her work she
had her sister copy one Of her stories
before sending it to the editor.
Mr.. Lowell accepted it in a letter,
in which he wrote: The DIS may not
be yours. but there is no mistaking
the idees.'"

PUT UP JOKE ON NATURALIST
Scotch Professor Has Much Fun With
Learned Brother.

One of the professors at a great
university in Scotland recently wrote
10 an eastern university to the follow
ing effect.
Walking In the dusk through the
grounds of the university the other
evening, my attention was arrested
by a low murmuring sound near me,
which was neither a hiss nor a whis'
tie. On looking / saw a creature
lying on the ground. larger than
cricket Two antenna-like protuber'
ances projected above the eyes. IL
had no wings; and the covering OF
its body was variegated though GER
tainly not like down.
Mindful of the danger TO myself,
| did not venture to turn IL on It's
back, so as TO count the legs on
the ground lay a small quantity OF
snow-white substance, which had evil
IDENTIFY exuded from the body. Can
any of your professors identify the
creature from this imperfect descrip-
tion?"
The naturalist connected with the
eastern university fell into the trap
baited, probably, especially for him.
He wrote learnedly about various in
sects, and concluded that the one OBJ
served must be one of the two whose
long Latin names he gave.
"The antenna-like protuberances
are used for burrowing in the
ground" he wrote, land these insects
secrete a fluid which they have the
power of e1ecting TO protect them
selves in case of attack"
The tutor wrote again to thank the
naturalist for his information, and to
say he need not trouble him further,
as he had fortunately observed the
creature again more closely under ex-
actly similar circumstances, and was
able now to identify it himself as the
Vacca vugaris, or common COW.

BROUGHT DEAD GIANT TO KING
Kl5naper Had Forgotten Victim
Would Need to Breathe.


One of the most industrious of the
man-thieves who recruited the fa-
nous regiment of giants for King
Frederick William of Prussia was
Baron Hompesch. whose many sue
cesses led him once to cast covetous
eyes upon very lengthy joiner. He or
dered of the joiner a chest or cup
board which should be as long and
broad as the worker himself. In due
course the baron called round. The
cupboard had been finished, but he
protested that 1t was too small. This
the carpenter denied and laid himself
within it as proof of its dimensions.
No sooner had he done so than serv-
ants Of the baron clapped down the
lid and had the giant prisoner. They
carried him off to the court. but when
the lid was opened. instead of a giant
there rolled out corpse. The man
had been stifled. In his anger the
king sentenced the baron to death, but
reprieved him when he wanted more
giants.
