If the spirit of reform that has al
ready inspired the patriotism of this
country to clean out so many Augean
stables of corruption should ever
stack it's arms to bivouac there should
be no thought of it's capitulation in
despair.
The fight that has been carried on
so long for the right and rational
doctrine of the square deal in polit-
ical and civic life may moderate at
times, but it will only be to marshal
its forces for a greater battle, and
when the contest is opened afresh the
boodlers and monopolists will find
their Armageddon.-Kansas City

Prime Meat In New York,

Not all the garbage collected in
New York every day goes into the
incinerated plants, nor is it sunk to
the depths of the sea from scows. A
big proportion of it is used to feed
livestock. A micellaneous assortment
Of this garbage in various stages of
putrefaction is put before the wretched
animals in the New Jersey slaughter
houses. At first the creatures will not
touch it. A little later they begin to
nibble at the less poisonous bits.
Gradually they grow accustomed to it
and eat everything that is put before
them. They grow fat, but boils break
out on their hides, which would prob
ably terminate fatally but for the in
reference of the slaughterhouse man.
This livestock is bought up at a low
price. The cattle after being fed filth
are killed and the meat is sold in the
New York market. Press Dispatch.

Graft in Business.

Why is everybody so detected and
disguised at the corruption uncovered
in the management of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad? The reason is not,
we think, merely because the repute
OF a great corporation, in which we
have all taken pride, has been
sadly dimmed. The general uneasi-
ness goes deeper than that. Every
man asks his neighbor: where is this
to stop? What business is safe? We
have seen the greatest names and the
most boastful companies in the in
surance world smirched; as if that
were not enough, we now behold high
officials of what has often been called
the model railway of America hold
ing out itching palms, like so many
Matchmaking policemen; and what
branch of private affairs can we be.
lieve immune?
It must be frankly admitted that all
these disclosures put a new aspect
upon the work of graphing with cor
ruption in public life. We have too
easily concluded that graft and favor
itism and methods that would not
bear the light are the vices of politi-
clans. But the error appears to be
rooted in human nature itself. The
corrupt public man is more conspicu-
Gus: his exposure causes the greater
sensation and his fall the louder
echo; but the unobtrusive man in
bank or insurance company or rail-
road or dry goods house who levies
his blackmail, or takes his brides, is
his true brother. The one betrays
his constituents, the other only his
stockholders; but both are alike in
being lost to decency. OF the two,
we confess we think the respectable
private CRATER the more detestable.
He not only does what he can to de-
stroy confidence in private virtue,
but really fosters public corruption.
With his example before them, cynical
politicians can sneer at all talk of re-
form and say: s'They all do it. We
are as honest as your merchants and
railroad men," And the argument of
the political reformer is certainly cut
into very deeply by the revelations
of graft in private business. One of
the appeals has been: ''Let US apply
business methods to politics. But
the taunt will now come: s'What bust:
ness methods? Those of the Equita-
BILE: Those of the Pennsylvania
New York Post.

SCHOOL SUMMARY.
items of Interest Furnished by Guy Ewing,
County Sunerintendent.

items of Interest Furnished by Guy Ewing,
County Superintendent.
The schools throughout the county
are closed for the summer vacation.
The attendance has been large and
a large gain over last year is shown.
Specimen work in picture drawing,
map drawing, composition and arith-
metic has been sent in from a number
of the rural schools. The work is
very creditable. This work will be
placed on exhibition at the county
fair this coming fall.
Many of the teachers have been
asked to return to the same schools
next year.
Clerks should not forget to send in
applications for state aid. Proper
blanks have been sent to every clerk,
and if not sent in as per instructions
it is a difficult matter to adjust when
the time has passed.
The summer training school bids
fair to have a much larger attendance
than last year. More help has been
given in the way of instructors and
several special features in the way OF
lectures and entertainments will be
furnished during the session.
The summer school announcement
is in this week. s issue of the y on
and will, in pamphlet form, be mailed
to all teachers and those expecting to
teach next fall. It is worthy Of
perusal.
The board will range from So. 90 to
So. SO per week for teachers attending
summer school.
There are five permit teachers on
the list in this county, and they are:so
near the line of eligibility for a state
certificate that it is safe to say that
all will disappear when school opens
next September.

c. Il. CHUTE IS DEAD
Veteran of the Indian Wars and a
Charter nember of Wallace T.
Rines Post, q. A. r
Funeral Held From Family Residence
in North Princeton on satur-
day Afternoon, June 9.

Cornelius H. Chute, a veteran of the
Indian wars and an old settler of this
territory, died at his home in north
Princeton on Thursday morning,
June I, at 80 o'clock, aged 70 years,
6 months, 10 days. Up to within two
weeks of Mr.. Chute's death he appar-
emily enjoyed the best of health.
Cornelius Harris Chute was born in
Harvard, Mass, on Nov. p, 1882,
and settled in Spencer Brook, Isanti
county in the early days. He after
wards moved to Germany, Mile Laos
county, and later purchased the prem
Uses in north Princeton where he died.
On March TO-, 1855, Mr.. Chute was
married to Lydia S. Colburn of Lyme,
N. H., and of this union four children
were born, three sons and two daugh-
tiers. His wife died on Nov. 20, 1878,
and on Sept. 20, 1874, he married, at
Royalton, Wis, Mary Jane Colburn,
sister of his deceased wife. By this
marriage there were no children.
On Nov. 2, 1868, Mr.. Chute enlisted
in Company D, Second Minnesota
cavalry, and was honorably dis
charged on Dec. 2, 1865.
During his military service Mr..
Chute was in the Indian campaigns in
the territory of Dakota and the YELL
lowstone, and it was his regiment
which proceeded to the relief of Capt.
Fisk, who was surrounded by Indians
about 200 miles west of Fort Rice.
A wife and four children survive
him, viz, Jerome. who is now in
Alaska; Albert, George, Mrs. Ed
Latta of Baldwin and Mrs. Am Babb
of Spencer Brook.
Mr.. Chute was a charter member of
Wallace T. Rines post, G. A. r., a
member of the Masonic fraternity,
and a gentleman highly respected in
the community.
The funeral sermon was delivered
by Rev. j. r. Henderson at the
family residence on Saturday and the
Masons and G.. A. r. conducted the
service at the grave. .

People Who Eat CLAY.

Clay eaters are found in the West
Indies, Honduras and some of the
regions round the Orinoco. They are
not necessarily of any particular
tribe, for even whites have fallen VIC
Tins to this degrading and fatal habit.
The habit is contracted at as early an
age as twelve, years, and the craving
once acquired appears to be, irresisti-
BILE. Confirmed clay eaters will lie
down and lick the earth where the
edible clay is found.
They suffer from chronic dyspepsia
and emaciation; but, in spite of the
pain and weakness, they cannot do
without the clay any more than the
confirmed drunkard can do without
his alcohol. In some localities this
clay is whitish gray, sometimes yell
lowish pink. There appears to be
lime in it, and also the remains of
minute organisms. It is sometimes
eaten baked and sometimes raw.
A confirmed clay eater will take
four, five or even six pounds a day.
Water is drunk with it. At length the
habit seems to give an aversion not
only to other kinds of food, but also
to alcoholic drinks. AS soon as this
stage is reached the eating of clay in
variably causes death.-Chicago

AT CENTRAL PARK.

There Are Many Daily Visitors and Fish
Are Biting Ravenously.
The beautiful grounds of Mr.. and
Mrs. E. Grant at Central park, Sandy
lake, were visited on Sunday by a
large number of people from Prince
ton and the surrounding country. It
was a glorious day-neither too hot
nor too cold-and so little of this sort
of weather has of late prevailed that
persons readily took advantage of the
opportunity offered to journey to the
lake. Several parties we're also at
the lake on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday. -
Many fine strings of fish were taken
from Sandy lake on Sunday, and the
denizens of this pretty body of water
are of a very superior quality in con-
sequence Of the sandy bottom of the
lake and the springs which abound
therein. Bass, pickerel and sunfsh
are now biting voraciously and who
soever goes to Sandy lake are assured
of a good catch and an enjoyable
time. Mr.. and Mrs. Grant are very
accommodating. They do all in
their power to make it pleasant for
visitors.
The grounds at the lake are in
frst-class condition and banners
painted by Mr.. Grant are floating in
the breeze. On one of these, which is
particularly conspicuous, appears the
legend, "Welcome, r. G. Dunn
A grand celebration will be held at
Sandy lake on the Fourth of July and
the public is invited to attend.

LAUNCHING THE WATER LILY.

Boat Is Christened by Miss Mildred
Staples as 1t Glides From the Ways.
Many were those who on Sunday
took advantage of the fine weather to
visit Elk lake and enjoy themselves
picnicking, fishing and boating. The
greatest event of the day was the
launching OF Geo. A. Coates gasoline
motor boat, which attracted a bic
crowd to the improvised slip upon
which the trim little craft rested. Had
the vessel been a United States cruiser
the ceremony of sliding her into the
deep could hardly have been per.
formed with more precision and eclat.
Miss Mildred Staples, who had been
selected as sponsor, stood in the prov
OF the launch, and, as the wedges were
removed from beneath the craft and it
glided gracefully into the water, she
broke bottle of champagne over it's
bows and named it "The Water Lily. d
The boat is of a pretty model, runs
smoothly and makes particularly
good speed. 1t accommodates about
twelve persons. Every portion of the
hull was constructed and the engine
placed in position by Mr.. Coates, who
is highly delighted at the success
achieved. On Sunday afternoon Mr..
Coates treated his friends to trips
upon the lake, and it kept him hust-
ling to give all a spin before night
fall ,s. ...r....
At the summer resort of H. B. Pratt
there was such large demand for
boats on Sunday that Mr.. Pratt found
it difficult to accommodate his pa
irons. AS fast as a boat would re-
turn to shore it was Immediately re-
chartered, and especially was this true
of the new steel boats. Mr.. Pratt has
beautiful place on the lake shore
and does his utmost to accommodate
visitors with boats, fishing tackle and
other necessaries.

How to Find a Gas Leak.

The folly of hunting for leak in a
gas pipe with a lighted match is not
so much because of the danger of an
explosion as of other damage, as is
shown by the experience of West
Philadelphia householder last week.
One or two small leaks were detected
by going over all the pipes and hold
ing a lighted match to them. The
smell of gas ceased, but was replaced
a few hours later by the smell OF
burning wood. Another visit to the
cellar showed charred joist just a
little distance above a gas pipe.
There was no apparent cause for this
until very close examination discov-
cred that tiny jet of gas was issuing
from the pipe beneath the beam. Il
was lighted, but was so small as to
be blue in color and nearly invisible.
1t had been lighted by the match used
in the first investigation, but had not
been noticed.
"If that leak had happened to be in
lead joint instead of an iron connec.
tion," said a gas man, "there would
probably have been work for the fire
department. The smallest possible jet
of lighted gas issuing through lead
will in time heat and melt the lead
and make the leak larger until big
flame is ISSUING. This NAV mako q
fire hours later, in the dead of night
or at time when no one is in the
house. The only proper way to look
for these very small leaks is to paint
the suspected pipe with a smooth SOAP
lather. Just as in the case of a hi.
cycle tire, the tiniest leak will blow a
bubble in the lather, and there you
are. "-Philadelphia Record.

There are times in the development

like the tried warrior of romance, lay
aside their armor and seek recupera-

most unfiinching advocate of reform
must sometimes seek the strength for
renewed efforts by way of mere idle
ness. The conquering armies of
