The Rev. E. j Peck, who re-
Gently returned to England from
a missionary field on the coast of
Labrador, has the novel expert
ence Of witnessing the destruction
of his church by dogs, in fact, the
dogs ate up the church. The edi.
flee for missionary purposes was
constructed at Black Lead Island
in Baffin Land for the benefit of
the Esquimaux tribes which fire.
quent the coast and as sealskin
was easily obtained, the building
was made of that material. One
night, however, the church was
left unguarded, the missionary S
temporary home being at some
distance, and late in the afternoon
"a wandering tribe of upland Es
.quimauX arrived and pitched their
tents round the sealskin church.
Their half-starved dogs at once
fell to work on the edifice and be-
fore morning it completely disap-
peared, only the bare poles re-
naming which upheld the seal
skin covering. The most expen
sive skins on earth are dear diet
for hungry dogs, but in spite Of
the loss OF his church, DR.. Peck
persevered and his next edifice was
made of adobe and stones and he
now has the satisfaction of know
ing that the esquimaux are pro-
vided with a church that" their
dogs cannot eat. Christian Advo-

Public sentiment is overwhelm-
ingly against those who persist in
the illegal traffic and strngly in
favor of law enforcement. The

clear evasion Of duty on the part

quote the following from what he
said:
THE SQUAD INDUSTRY.
A new industry is developing in
Missouri, the growing of squads
for the market.
Until recently it was confined al
most entirely to the cities and their
suburbs.
Within the past few months, how
ever, it has been extended over the
country towns and some farmers
have taken up the business of rails
ing pigeons and selling squads.
Erastus Robinson, a Wabash CON
ductor, who, because of advanced
years, retired from railroad work,
made his home at Centrailia and is
in the occupation Uf growing
squads. The chicken growers are
adding pigeons to their poltry yard
pets in many other places.
THE COUNTRY ROAD PUZZLE.
"What shall be done with the
country roads?" continues the
chief topic of discussion in intefor
Missouri. The discussion over the
power of the general assembly to
direct appropriations for building
of roads WHICH was precipitated by
inquiry addressed by Judge w. II.
Kennan of Mexico to Walter
Burch, the Audrain county repre-
sentative, has not interrupted the
general consideration of the sub
ject of good roads. Representa-
tive Burch, replying to Judge
Kennan, points out that the con.
stitution states, in the seventh and
last subdivision of section 43, that
the general assembly has power to
make appropriations For the pay
of the general assembly and such
other purposes not herein prohib
tied as it may deem necessary"
Mr.. Burch says; Il call attention
to the words, such other purposes
not herein prohibited, " and
draw this conclusion, that, unless
there is some clause in the consti-
tuition that expressly prohibits the
state from making such appro-
priations, then it has the power,
under this general.grantof power,
to improve its highways. The
very fact that the words not
herein prohibited" were used,
makes it a general grant of power.
And since the public roads are
public and not private property, it
logically follows that the State has
the right to use its own money in
improving what belongs to it,"
Tho building of two macadam-
lied or rock roads from st. Louis
to Kansas City across the state
has been suggested by G. f Clark. !
Mr.. Clark would have these roads
built at state expense, one north of
the Missouri river aud one sonth |
of that stream. Others are sug-
gestiug the use of convict labor
upon the public roads, a sugges-
tion often vigorously made but as
vigorously opposed. The discus.
sion of good roads is always sharp
aud consistent during the late
winter and early spring months,
because it is during these months
that the country roads are in worse
than at any other periods
of the year, The discussion grows
less acute when early summer
comes end the country roads be
come pleasantly passable.
