Not to Be Thought Of.

~ NAN who lives in England spells his name
~ Phtholognyrrh !, This looks like a very
difficult to pronounce but it really is not when
you to understand the value Of letters accord
ing to the old rules. Phth Of course is pronounced
in Phthisic olo has the force Of the same letters
in colonel; gn in gnat; and yrrh is er as in
myrrh. The possessor Of this curious name would like
to adopt simplifed spelling and call it 3 Turner
if he, along with distinguished contemporaries in
the local daily and weekly field not afraid the
change might do violence in way to the English
language It is risky and Of not to be thought
s Of.

In it's discrimination against Minneapolis as shown
in local columns today the Burlington railroad has
adopted game at which two play, and in view
of experience in such matters, it is time for the
people of Minneapolis to get into the game and get
in hard. The business men, under the leadership of
the Commercial club, put stop to that sort Of
thing for all if they have mind. There is just
one way to do it..

The Consideration of Sex.

no women accused of crime enjoy peculiar ad.
D vantage because of their sex9 The question is
often debated by lawyers, and it is generally conceded
that woman in distress holds an influence mas
culine jury that often clouds the issues of the
1t has been urged that women, to be tried i'm
partially by their peers should be tried by
jurors. yt@<.:y ...r
Statistics have been collected to show the relative
chances of conviction for and women accused of
crime. They do not bear out the general idea. The
records Of the New York courts show that only 25
per cent of the tried for homicidal oenses
acquitted while the general record shows Al per cent
OF acquittas. The larger percentage Of con
victed is explained by the fact that seldom
brought to bar by the authorities without substantial
proof of their guilt. On the other hand, there
more often grounds for verdict Of justifable hon
eide when woman kills man, than when man kills
another of the same sex.
The record shows another thing, however The
tendency is to find guilty Of lesser degree
crime than men. In recent years woman has been
convicted of first degree murder in New York city,
and the majority Of the convictions are for man
slaughter in degree Evidently the jury as rule
weighs the evidence and refuses free prisoner
because she is woman, but when it fixing the
penalty the consideration of intervenes and mercy
tempers the judgment. This is only human, and sell
dom deserves criticism

Z DR.. Van DYKES Prayerbook.

HE action of the Presbyterian general assembly
Il on the book Of forms, the so-caled Presbyterian
prayerbook is little disappointing to some who
hoped that that body might give it some official sane
ton at the extent Of recommending it for use
in the churches and in families. 1t Is concelvaele
that the favorable attitude of the assembly toward
the forms of worship which it contains might lead to
more general resumption of religious worship IN the
family which as daily stated institution is doubt
less not as common IN TINS country aS ~ oh.e "' 4h
especially under those conditions OF life when the
family was of domestic center than 1t IS now
when the head Of the family sustained more patr-
archal relation toward his dependents and servants
than he does now. The book of forms would relieve
the duty Of leadership in religious worship of much
of it's difficulty and embarrassment Tor men whose sym
pathies are altogether the side OF maintaining an
order of religious life and service IN the famly put
who are reluctant to frame in their own words the
sentiments which they approve and feel There IS
hardly any man who regards God as his heavenly
father and friend, and most men IN their lnmost
hearts do regard Him, but what are grateful for
His goodness and mercy and recognize the propriety
and common decency of some expression OF thanks
and appreciation, and yet often neglect TO make
for the that they are not TO ao SO
and hardly know how. They really not very well
acquainted with the Lord and hardly know now, to
address Him as they would actually like TO- 10 such
such appropriate and wellframed statement OF their
own Thoughts and feelings to be round IN this
hook would be highly acceptable and real help The
ministers and the elders in the general assembly, with
their readiness to participate in every act OF Puolc
or private religious worship were unable, no doubt,
to apprecate what service such a book might render
to MANY. Others and while magnifying the dangers
Of Journalism quite lost sight of the help and encour-
aoement the book Of forms might be to many and how
much it might contribute to the revival OF the regous
life Of the average Protestant family. Many man
would be glad to read prayers in his own family when
he would be unwilling to frame his petitions.
This is the way it looks to a secular newspaper
that is interested in the promotion Of everything that
for the moral and social betterment Of the peo
pie without prejudice to creeds or forms OF faith
and practice.

VESSELS SAIL FROM DULUTH,
Thirty or More Steamers Clear for
Lower Lake Ports.

Thirty or More Steamers Clear for
Lower Lake Ports.
Duluth, Aug. 15.-The fixed span on
the Wisconsin side of the damaged in
terstate bridge has been f1oated off it's
foundation piers.
The accomplishment Of this feat
was signalized by the blowing Of
whistles in the harbor and the rush of
the thirty or more steamers that have
been bottled up since last Friday
night to clear for lower lake ports.
The removal Of the span provides a
channel 230 feet wide, or twenty feet
narrower than the old ones at the
draw. The engineers have taken the
measurements and found there will be
a 170-foot channel with from rs to 80
feet of water while the least depth in
any part of the whole 230-foot channel
will be 10 feet. With this width it is
claimed that the largest lake freighter
loaded to it's capacity will have no
trouble In making the passage.

Buenos Ayres, Aug. 15.-Despite

crowds assembled at the docks to wit
ness the arrival of Secretary of State
Root and his party, who were received

to Government House, escorted by the
Eighth regiment of cavalry, for an Off
cial reception by President Alcorta,
who formally returned the secretary's
visit at o'clock.
In his conversation with President

rendered him and his admiration for
the city, which, in many respects he
said, was similar to the upper part of
New York city.
At $3.50 p. M Mr.. Root and his party
arrived at Government House for an
official banquet given by the president
and to which the diplomatic corps and
high officers of state only were in
vited. The scene was most brilliant.

THE ONLY WAY TO STOP RIoTlNG.
Transit Company Shuts Off Surface
Lines Leading to Coney Island.

New York, Aug. 15.-Following the
arrest of three division inspectors of
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company
on charges of assault in the third de-
gree, the company shut off entirely all
of its surface lines leading to Coney
Island, taking the position that this
was the only way to stop rioting,
which has been in progress since Sun
day morning at the points where a
second fare was demanded by the
company's employees. The elevated
and express train service to the sea-
side shore resort were inaugurated
The arrested inspectors were Will
lam Heff1ing, William Newberry and
Fred CULVER, all Of whom were taken
into custody on warrants sworn out
by passengers who had been elected
from cars. The employees were bailed
in the sum of $500 each. The stop
page Of the surface car traffic had the
effect of quieting disturbances, and
the company claims it will not at
tempt to run the surface cars through
to Coney Island at rush hours until
the danger of rioting is past.
Three more inspectors of the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company were
arrested late at night on warrants
charging assault and sworn out by
passengers. They were Frederick
Lewis, Frank PERI and James Tier
