Items Of Interest Taken From Our
# Exchanges and Condensed.

The February term OF circuit
court for the county OF Houghton
will open next Monday. There is one
murder case, four cases of assault
with intent to do great bodily harm
less than the crime OF murder; one
OF adultery, and one OF larceny.
The majority OF the criminal cases
are for violation OF the liquor laws.
The new long distance toll line
between Nestoria and Ironwood,
now under construction by the
Michigan Telephone company, is
rapidly nearing completion, and it is
expected that the wires will be
strung the entire distance in a short
time. The completion of this line
will give direct communication with
Duluth and other points at the head
OF the lakes without going around
by Chicago, as is the case at
present.
H. Fl. Landry, for the past four
years dispatcher in the train dis
Datcher's department OF the Duluth,
South Shore and Atlantic railway,
at Marquette, has been appointed to
the position of chief. succeeding
Frank Dushane. The change has
oeen announced in an official circu
lar issued from the Office of G. K.

,ane has been chief OF the depart
nent for the past ten yea RS. The
superintendent also announces the
appointment OF Theo. Hamlin, to be

rAMARAcK MINE OPENED.
After Being Hermetically Sealed For
Two Weeks Owing TO Fire.

Tuesday mording No. 2 shaft Of
the Tamarack mine was opened.
This is the shaft IN which fire broke
out over two weeks ago. The g.s
from No. 2 shaft was much the same
as that from the other two shafts
when they were opened and some OF
the workmen suffered from the eff
fects of the gas to a small extent.
At No. s shaft, which was first to
be opened, the operations are con-
fined to hosting water. This is al,
that will be done in either of tn,
shafts for some time, for until IA
large quantity OF it has been remov-
ed it will be impossible to work the
pumps and clean the mine OF gas.
There is little doubt at present
that the fire is out. The extent Of
damage cannot be learned as no men
as yet have been able to penetrate
into the shaft. 1t is thought, how
ever, that the flames confined them
selves to the twenty-secoud level
where they were first discovered.
1t will probably take some time to
remove the gas from the mine so
that it will be possible to continue
work again. The utmost haste will
be used on the part of the officials.
The compressors and every other
means Of lifting the gas from the
workings will be attempted As
soon as the mine can be penetrated
the search for the bodies OF three
men who lost their lives, will be con-
tinued.

Move For Refuge Harbor.

It is expected that with the com
pletion OF the new bridge between
Hancock and Honghton, with draw
spans OF l08 and lib feet respective
ly, the Portage canals will be used
more than ever. Loaded vessels
500 feet long and drawing 10 feet of
water passed through the canals the
past season, and with the larger
draws it is presumed that the traffic
through the "short cut" will be
largely increased. Vessel interests
are said to be getting ready for an
active campaign for congressional
action which will authorize q haroor
OF refuge at the lower end Of Port
age canal, similar to the refuge now
furnished by the Lily Pond, at the
upper end. The United States
engineering department has already
recognized the desirability OF such q
harbor.
The commerce on Lake Superior
is shown to be the heaviest during
July and August, yet it is noted that
there is more freight going through
the canals 10 October and November
or in the stormy season. than at
any other time. This is said to
clearly show the extent to which the
canals are used for refuge.

law IS ALL RIGHT
New Bin For Registration Of
Births Il Constitutional
and Of Greut value.

| z
Since the new law requiring the
registration Of the birth OF every
child, with the clerk OF the village
or township in which the babe Is
born, by the attending physician or
midwife. the question OF the ccnsti
tutionality OF the law has been
raised. A large number of physic-
ians have complained against the
extra work without remuneration
and many have claimed that the law
is unconstitutional. In view OF the
fact the department OF state has had
several communications recently
relative to the constitutionality Of
the law. In answer, for the benefit
OF those interested, the following
opinion from Hon Henry E, Chase,
deputy attorney general, which fully
explains itself, has been issued.
December Il, 1905.
Hon. George A. Prescott,
Secretary of State, Lansing.
Dear Sir: Yours OF the 18th. en-
closing copies OF letters from Drs E
A. Hoyt, Orson Millard, ]. Williams,
Jr., Fred R, Belknap. G. M. Living
ston and George @. Gordon, relative
TO Act No $50 OF the laws OF 1903,
received.
The question presented by the
doctors seems to be the constitution
ality of the law; contending that it
does not provide compensation for
physicians making certificates OF
births, and filing same, in accord
ance with the requirements Of said
act. That is not constitutional
objection. 1t violates no section Of
the constitution. The constitution
of Michigan does not require that
the law shall carry with it compens-
alton for every service performed
under and 10 accordance with it.
Yours respectfully,
(Signed) HENRY E. CHASE,
Deputy Attorney General.
Since this letter has been made
public most OF the physicians are
satisfied with the existing conditions
and have properly registered births.
The provisions OF tho law are now
pretty well understood.
There is but little doubt the mea-
sure will be a great aid 10 the collec.
tion OF statistics on births.

CHANGES IN CHURCH MUSIC.
Bishops Promulsate an Order Con-
cernins Music in the Roman
Catholic Churches.

Following upon the promulgation
Of the Motu Proprio OF his holiness,
Pope Plus x. is pastoral letter by
the various bishops addressed to the
clergy OF their dioceses. explaining
and outlining the requirements of
pope's encyclical on church music. 1t
would appear from this that the re-
forms aimed at by the supreme
pontiff will become effective in the
very near future, since the rules
LAID down in the encyclical are by
episcopal Injunction 10 be enforced
by July 1st Of the present year.
The now widely circulated Motu
Proprio, so called from the initial
words OF the text, has aroused much
discussion in the religious world. 1t
aims to eliminate from the liturgical
chant OF the church the many abuses
that it has obtained and to restore
it to its original simplicity and
dignity.
In his encyclical the pope deplores
the fact that the impressive sacred
chant has been dethroned and
usurped by the light profane (not
sacred music, out Of harmony, with
the liturgical functions OF the
church and not calculated to elevate
the religious impulses of the faith
full. To make it q worthy accom-
paniment to the functions OF public
worship, the supreme pont,ff has de-
creed that music of a profane charac-
ter be no longer employed and the
official chant, which dates back to
antiquity, be substituted.
The principal reforms to be in
stituted are:
1st. All female voices are exclud-
ed and only male voices to be en-
ployed in the rendition OF the chant.
Congregational singing is en-
couraged.
I'd. All solos are forbidden, ex-
cepting such as partake OF the
character OF q melodic projection.
Non Catholics are not to sing in the
churches or take part in the music.
Sd. The employment OF noisy and
frivolous instruments and bands is
forbidden.
Much difficulty is anticipated by
the clergy in putting these reforms
into effect, but it is conceded that
once these have been surmounted
and the old chant is replaced, they
will be adequately compensated by
style Of music in keeping with the
sacred functions OF the church.
