they had heart trouble, because the heart is

THE ANGEL cAlLD's LESSON.
Didn't Result as the Pen1rious Parent
Had Hoped, but the A. C. Had Fun.


The penurious parent had been in
structing the angel. child in the art of
saving. The angel child had listened
dutifully and when the p. p. present
ed it with a patent savings bank the
A. G. agreed to put all the nickels no
got into the bank.
AT the end of the week of persistent
begging from the other members of
the family the A.. c. gazed into the
patent bank and discovered that he
had $500
ooh, papa!" said the A. c., its dim
pied physiognomy erupted with smiles,
II need only two more nickels to have
the required So. Have l not been Il
good boy to not spend them one by
one as l used to do?"
'You have, my child" replied the
p P. proudly, and to show you that
the reward of economy is comfort
able bank account, | will now give
you the money to fill your bank, 1t
can then be opened and your money
placed in the big bank down town"
Saying which he handed the A. G..
two nickels and the little one danced
away happy.
This only goes to show said the
P. p. to his yoke mate, that the in
culcation of right ideas cannot begin
too soon with children. 1t is merely
the forerunner of a great and glorious
career for our child; and | feel that
he will look back upon this moment
in his after years, and remember with
pride the fact that l taught him the
first principles of good citizenship
Having gotten which sentiment out
of his system, the p. p. fell to perus-
ing the financial gossip of the Even
ing EXETER.
And meanwhile the angel child, hav-
ing pushed the two coins into the
bank. gave it the proper twist and
dumped the contents into his hat.
Then he proceeded to sneak around
the corner, gather up ten or Is of his
alley acquaintances, and blow them
off to soda, ice cream and cubeb cigar
cites at the nearest confectionery. re-
turning home with an empty bank but
full stomach.

prisoner indicted for murder. lie
principal witness against the del nd

ly that it was the same one that was
found, and that it belonged to the pris-
oner.
"By virtue of your oath. are you
positive that this is the same hat?"
yes"
did you examine it carefully before
you swore that it was the prisoners?'
yes"
Nov, let me see,' said O'Connell.
as he took up the hat and began care
fully to examine the inside of it. He
paused with a curious expression on
his face, and then spelled aloud.
James. Now, do you mean to say
that that name was in the hat when
you found ito" he asked, turning to
the witness.

Qualities of Arab Horse.

Our present Thoroughbred is q liv-

as founder and creator of racers.

centuries for running rather than

the Arab possesses every gift and
qualification, courage, docility, tenn

If ne cannot go with the flyers of
the course, bred and trained solely
for speed, neither can he be called
slow He has run two miles with
Derby weight up In 3;4S. yet on the
course he keeps nearly to his normal
speed. Long or short, his race is run
true from end to end; moreover, so
excellent are his temper and eonsti'

years and years and has been known
to win races In his teens.

NEED MORE RANGERS.
Adjutant General Will Show Necessl'
ty In His Annual Report.

Austin, Tex: Adjutant General
John A. Hulen will make important
recommendations for the betterment
of the state ranger service in his an,
nual report, which he will soon sub,
nit to Governor Lanham. The maxi
imum strength of the service, under
the law, is 100 men, and an increase
in the force to that number is ear,
nestly desired and badly needed II
Is estimated that an appropriation OF
100000 per annum would be neces
sary to maintain the force up to Its
full strength. The value of ranger
service, patterned after Texas, is be
ing recognized by other states. Penn
sylvania created ranger or rural pc
lice branch of its state militia about
two years ago. 1t consists of 200 men
The situation II Texas makes the
need of a larger ranger force mucf
greater than in Pennsylvania or any
other state.

THE NEW CHARTER.

Astoria is to have a new charter. 1t
needs one badly; and it needs the best
it can get. 1t must be an up-to-date,
broad -guage and effective instrument
To secure this end, the best thought, and
the best models now in existance, must
be used Charter -tinkering is an evil tne
people have borne just as long as they
are going to. What is done now must be
of wholesome and contributive excellence
that shall be plainly apparent when it
shall be submitted for popular criticism,
before it goes to the legislature for
final enactment. There are enough pat
ent weaknesses in the old instrument to
cure, and whose cure, in terms, text and
purpose, would, of itself, make a pretty
fair charter. But there is more to do
than correcting the proven shortcomings
of the old charter. There are new and
specific details of organic power and au-
thority to be conferred upon the city, in
order that its future administration may
be conserved, in a financial sense; be-
sides other vital and valuable features
to be added to broaden its scope of action
and responsibility; and among these is
the adjustment of the relations OF the
municipality to the evil. of the saloon,
the gambling house and the dance nall.
By common consent, in which the voice
of the present administration has been
the most conspicuous, the city has not
the power to regulate and control these
elementsj the sherif's office alone being
credited with that fiat function; and now
that the big task is on, let it be known
that the city is to be reinforced in this
particular. and that in the future she
need not plead an insuffciency Of power
to bring to instant terms, the grossest
elements of her body -opolitic, which she
now licenses, but cannot govern in the
restrictive sense. These are other wise
things to do and provide for and they
will be offered in due season for the
consideration of the commission in
charge.

have gone on record as opposing divorces.
Men and women share equally in the
condemnation visited on Divorces. The
following are the resolutions adopted by
the assembly:
Resolved, That the committee on
marriage and divorce be continued, to
report to the general assembly, 1907.
Resolved, That this general assembly
heartily approves of the campaign of
education for the influencing of public
opinion proposed by the inter-church con-
ference on federation as to the most
effectual way to meet and overcome the
divorce evil
Resolved, That the general assembly
hereby reaffirms the deliverances on d.
vorce and remarriages after divorce

ADJOURNMENT IMMINENT.

In few days more the first session Of
the fifty-ninth Congress will have ad-

among the most notable of the Con-
crosses of later years. 1t has an i'm
mense deal to its credit and but little to
mark it unfavorably. 1t has been,
peculiarly, a vehicle for the best express
sion of the Rooseveltian idea. The char
acter of the President is stamped broad
ly and ineffaceably upon its best record,
and must rebound to his honor and the
common good of the country. That is
the strong point of Mr.. Roosevelt's in
fuence; always to be of direct and po-
tent service to the people, and the his
tory of this Congress must yield him
especial largess in this behalf
Among the good things he has COM
PEELED, may be noted the following, and

immensely valuable, concessions he has
won by his honest and vigorous policies:
The passage of the railroad rate bill;
the bill purging the sources of food sup

ALFONSO AND HAAK0N.

For thepast twenty days the press of the
world has been agog with the current
stories of these princely lovers and their
titled and lowered brides; and as the
world always has warm spot in its big
heart for lovers there has been immense
interest taken in the reports anent these
young people, all of which leads to the
thought that these prominent and
wealthy youngsters. despite the proud
distinction of their positions in life,
have nothing more to gain or lose in the
court of love, than the humhlest pair OF
lovers in their realms, or elsewhere.
Their one supreme gift at the hands of
the tyrannical little God, is. after all
is said and done, each other; and what
more has the simplest and the poorest of
us? Ii the tenderness and devotion
that inspire them in the hour of their
greatest happiness shall live on through
the years. making for the peace, the
comfort. the success of their lives, what
more have they than the same blessing
as it falls to the lesser and more obscure
of their fellows? The whole question of
human love and its expression in life,
is truth and loyalty, and these bring the
only reward possible. Therefore every |
good wish, every congratulatory senti |
ment, that goes ont to these young peo
pie, must 90, not to the king and queen,
