Why salute of the lips, ordinarily
known as a kiss should be given such
prominence in the literature and
drama of the world, both Biblical and
historical cannot be solved by recourse
to any written authority, yet during all
these years since the beginning of time
this peculiar salutatiOn does not ap-
pear to have lost in value, nor is there
any immediate prospect of its so do
ing. What the playwright. the novelist
and the poet would do without this peg
upon which to hang a plot it would be
difficult to say, and this applies es-
pecially to the playwrightS. for dozens
of familiar dramatic productions, sew
eral of which have graced the New
York stage this season, have found
their greatest factor, the wheel upon
which the machinery of the scenes
runs and the plot depends, in a kiss
that of a man and a woman. In
France only a half century ago code
of regulations by which the theaters of
that country were governed provided
that any actor kissing an actress with
out her consent, regardless of what the
play might be, would be subject to a
fine of many francs.-Harriet Quimby

TWO CENTURIES OLD.
Celebration Planned For a Church

A Celebration Planned For a Church
In Wexford, r. |.
A celebration to commemorate the
two hhndredth anniversary of the
erection of the old Narragansettc church
IN Wexford, r. l., the oldest edifce in
New England devoted to the Protes-
tant Episcopal worship, is being plan
ned for the coming summer and will
be the central attraction of old home
week.
A committee has been appointed to
arrange for this celebration, of which
the present rector of the church, Rev.
Frederick Bradford Cole, is chairman.
The old church stands upon a short
lane just off the main street of old
Wexford and is surrounded by many
marks of the colonial days 1t is still
well preserved, and save for the loss of
the tall tower which once gave it an
imposing aspect it is but little changed
either outside or in.
The entrance is in the center on the
side, now facing the lane on which it
fronts, and directly opposite stands the
pulpit, somewhat changed from its
original appearance. The center por-
ton of the church is occupied by long
pews with high backs, while on either
side are square, boxlike pews, with
seats on three sides, which would ac-
commOdate a whole family.
A gallery extends around three sides
Of the church, and in the early days
the preacher standing in his lofty pull
pit, reached by narrow stairs, stood
nearly even with the floor of this gal
lery.
In those days, no means for heating
the church being provided, each family
had to provide its own means of keep
ing warm during the bleak wintry
days. and some now living who can re-
call their attendance upon services at
this ancient church even half cen
fury ago relate amusing experiences of
the family heater"
Much has been written of the early
history of this church. Some have
claimed that in 1900, when the editice,
then nearly 100 years old, was moved
to WEXFORD it was stolen and carted
away in the night intact with many
oxen.
At the time Of the removal a stee-
pie was added and other improve
ments were made For nearly half a
century it continued in active use.
The old tower was blown down in
1869 Later the building was repair
ed and put in a condition to maintain
it in as near its original state as pos
sible.-ChicagO Post

A TRIP TO ROME.

A rare opportunity is offered
the Sunday school workers of
Vermont to visit the eternal
City" on the occasion of the
Worlds Fifth Sunday School
Convention. A large number of
leading Sunday school workers
from every state in the Union are
to sail in the "ROmanic" from
Boston and the "Neckar" from
New York. At the first only one
ship was thought of as necessary,
but the 'ROmanic was 50 quick
ly filled that it became necessary
to charter the second ship, and
the North German Lloyd steam
err, the "Neckar" was secured.
Already six have registered
from Vermont, with a probable
seventh. 1t is the earnest desire
of the leaders of the Sunday
school work in the state that sew
eraI others may 60. The cost of
this educational and inspirations
al trip, lasting 40 days, is only
from $3.50 to $40, according to
location, and this includes first
class provision in everything eX-
cept steward fees and laundry.
Those who wish to go should
communicate at once with Rev.
Edward NJ. Fuller, Burlington.
The date of sailing is April ~.

1t is we'll not to take too much
for granted. Because President
Roosevelt is hammering at cor
rupt practices which character
ize many railroad arrangements,
some people Immediately assume
that the President is the foe of
railroads. He would be a less as
tute man than he is if he were
an enemy to honest railrOading,
since the "steam horse" is grant
ed to be the greatest possible de
veloper of new or old territory.
His stand is well represented by
a story which went the rounds
early in the session when the
rate bill was up. An ambitious
citizen of one of the states called
on the president and the follow
ing conversation took place:
"Mr. President, the people of my
state are for you because you are
against the railways" said the mem
Der.
Then the people of your state
understand the situation crookedly,"
promptly replied the president. 81
am not against the railways. l am
their best friend. 1 am only against
dishonest railway methods. When the
railways do business honestly, l am
their best friend. l am for them all
the time All 1 ask is that they give
every man a square deal. l am not
against the railways. But l am
against certain dishonest methods, and
those 1 hope to make so unpopular
that they will come to be entirely elm
mated from the conduct of the rail
roads of this country"

More or less comment is being
noticed about the pledge admin
istered by the court to habitual
drunkards as a substitute for I'M
prisOnment and fines. There is
something to be said on both
sides as usual. The wisdom Of
the substitution rests largely
with the judge. Some men, who
would take the pledge under
these compulsory circumstances,
would have the will power to
Keep it, and the lesson would be
a good thing, while others would
look on this as an easy way off
and forget the pledge as soon as
the first opportunity came to
take a glass. Judges are often
good readers of human nature,
and leaving the penalty to their
discretion might not be Il bad

BABY PATHFINDER
RAILWAY GUIDE.

The popular Baby Pathfinder
Railway Guide appears this
month in a new dress of type and
with other improvements such as
the elimination of trains in para
graph and other abbreviated
forms, that will make it a greater
favOrite than ever.
The publishers have had many
requests from commercial men
for the distances between stations
which it was impossible to add
with the type formerly used with
out increasing the size of the
Guide, which everybody objected
to. The Baby now contains the
mileage between all stations in
New England and is still the com
pact and concise companion of
old. This new feature will be APP
preciated by the Guides patrons.

Alexander Dowie, Elijah the

dead. He died raving, repeating
LIS vile ratings at an imaginary
New York audience. 1t is gen
orally conce ed that - has beCl
insane for months, and perhaps
his strange delusiOn, coupled
with his undoubted hypnotism,
may have been a form of insanity
all along. He certainly had a
strong following until his vanity
led him into the mistake of 60
ing to convert New York, where
the fake was exposed. Most
students of the Zion movement
agree that it was there that his
power, as well as his health, was
broken. From that time the halo
began to grow dim around his
head and it shone with less and
less brilliancy until the end. Yet
he was but sixty when his varied
life was a closed book.

When we strike at the founda-

to improve it we are doing a
much greater thing than when we
try to make the superstructure a
little more artistic. Mrs. Sage
has the reputation of being
practical philanthropist and her
husbands confidence in her seems
to be justified.

GETS The MONEY
(Scripps News Association

NEW YORK, April 4.-Emilie
Gnigsby, the beautiful young woman
who was known as the ward of
Chas T. Yerkes, the traction mil.
lionaire, who died a year ago, has
emerged from brief but decisive
contest the possessor a big slice
of the Yerkes millions.
During the last few years of his
life, Yerkes made his home with
Miss Grigsby and her mother in a
mansion on Park av. His wife
lived in another part of the city,
also in a state of splendor.
After the death of the maghate it
was said that Miss Grigsby would
claim large share of the estate.
Her claims were finally reduced to
a demand for certificate for $4,000
shares of promotion bonds of
Yerkes London underground rail
way. Miss Grigsby demanded the
certificate on the ground that Yerkes
had deposited it in trust for her.
A few days ago Miss Grigsby
brought suit for the bonds. The suit
had been in court 2 days when her
lawyers announced with a smile
that it would never be tried. The
other fellows had settled.
Miss Grigsby would not have suf-
fered hardship If she had lost the
contest. She has the magnificent
house on Park av. and Yerkes had
otherwise provided literally for her
before his death.

began an argument defending the
Alton deal. He said
IF this had country had the
stringent laws of England, as pro-
posed in many states, rapid de-
velopment of this country would be
impossible. The so-called stock
watering, instead of being a vice,
has been a real aid. While it may
now be time to regulate the issue
of stocks and bonds, the Necapitali-
zation of the Alton was done at the
height of the country's develop
ment, following the panic of 1898,
and should be regarded in that
light. Everything was done in the
