When the mother of Peter Paul
son, of Cashton, died, she left her
son $1,000 to be paid to him in
fifteen annual installments on con-
dition that he attend church regu-
larly. The old lady herself was a
devoted attendant of the church
and took this means to assure her.
self that her son would follow in
her footsteps. Only illness was to
excuse his non-attendance on any
Sunday. Paulson wanted the money
but objected to earning it at $500 a
Sunday, and after his mother died
took the case into the circuit court
and asked relief from the COM
pulsory church attendance. Judge
Fruit ruled that the money! would
have to be earned by faithful at
tendance at the religious devotions.
Paulson then appealed to tho
supreme court, where the decision
Of Judge Fruit has been sustained.

Senate and House in Brief.

Washington, April 81. - Spooner
spoke for three hours in the senate on
the railroad rate question and then
gave notice that he would continue his
remarks today. He addressed himself
especially to Bailey's amendment talk
ing from the inferior courts the right
to enjoin the execution Of orders of the
interstate commission, contending that
it would be the first step toward the
destruction of the power Of the judici
airy. The bill making an appropriation
of 100000 for the employment of eX-
ira labor at the Mare island California;
navy yard was passed. An executive
session was held.
The agricultural appropriation bin
furnished the house an opportunity to
discuss pretty much every other sub
ject except that bill. Boutell of Hi
nois controverted the assertion thai
there is watch trust" Sulzer spoke
OF the merchant marine; Hepburn de
Tended protection. The agricultural
bill was still pending at adjournment.
The day was devoted to the manufac-
ture of Campaign ammunition.

CITY AND.COUNTRY.

Too often there Is not feeling of
union between the people of the
smaller cities>yand svillages and the
surrounding farmers. The people
OF the towns fail to realize, some
times, that the prosperity of the
farmer Is really their benefit, and
the farmers often believe that the
business men exist for the soul pur-
pose Of getting the dollars. The
Eruth is the happiness and welfare
of the one class depends to a consid-
cradle extent upon the the condi-
sion Of the other class. A town in q
EARNING community cannot prosper
unless friendly business relations
exist between city and country.
ON She other hand it is Of great
value to the farmers to havesa thrifty
and prosperous town IN their midst.
Not aIone for the home market it
affords. but as a social and business
center where there may be estab-
Zishe3 good nigh schools or other in
,stitutions of learning, where pro-
fessional men of ability may estab-
lish themselves, where there may
5e gathered good stocks of mer.
chandise of all kinds for personal
inspection of buyers, and where a
Thousand things for the convenience,
comfort and general welfare of the
EARNING community can be found
ready FOR immediate use.
The wise business or professional
man will miss no opportunity to do
anything in his power to build up
and increase the thrift of his far
aner neighbors, and the patriotic
and far sighted countryman vii
loyalty do all he can to make his
home city prosper. The two must
pull together, if either is to prosper
to its full extent.

Indianapolis, April 27.-The supreme

the conduct of interstate commerce and
not forbidding persons to smoke Ci-
garettes, but only to sell them or keep
them for sale. The conviction of Jonn
NJ. Lewis, of Anderson, for smoking a
cigarette was reversed, and the refusal
of the trial court to convict w. w.

Funeral Cost $4,000.

A remarkable story is published Of
the eccentric will left by a wealthy
woman who died in Paris. When her
will was opened the relatives We're as
founded, for it set forth that out Of
her fortune 10000 francs had to he
spent on her funeral. The executors.
however, conscientiously carried out
this order. Several doctors were en-
gagged to embalm the body and the cof-
fin was the best and most expensive
that could be obtained. The funeral
was a sight to see. For an hour the
bells of st. Su1pice church rang. Both
inside and outside the church there
were black hangings, edged with sill,
yer. The coffin was literally covered
with rare and costly flowers.
Chinese Degeneracy.
Chan Chun Man, head of a Canton
firm employing over 10000 hands, has
been studying American industries. In
Philadelphia, apropos of the Chinese
awakening, he said: "China has for
thousands of years been highly enough
civilized to despise war. Her new
born respect for war is not of degener.
alton, Of barbarism, in it. But at least
China will no longer be the laughing
stock of nations more warlike than her
self. 1t will no longer be possible to
say to her, as a Chinese general once
explained a defeat with the following
report: The ignorant enemy, un
aware that guns could not be fired
against an object behind them, came
upon us from the rear ana thus rem
dered all our cannon useless"
