The petition Tor separate local op-

month ago, were withdrawn Monday
in Judge Turpin's court. by the whis-
key men who had put the petition in
circulation. While no reasons ~ero
given for their withdrawal, It is be-
lieved to be on account of so many IL
legal signatures TO the first petition
and other irregularities.
The whiskey men have begun OBJ
tanning signatures to an entirely new
petition and all persons who sign sam
must understand now the exact OBJ
ject of the petition, no matter what
other claim is made for il, viz: To
get another vote in the city OF Rich
mond separate from vote In the eoun'
ty with the hope Of carrying Richmond
wet and reopening the saloons within
the next few months. The whiskey
men think they have a right to an
other election on the same day In the
city and county. OF course. the coun-
ty would go dry overwhelmingly but
IL would be tight race in Richmond
and hence all friends of temperance
and law and order are warned TO Keep
their names off this petition SO as
10 prevent an election within the next
three years.
This warning is issued on the author

to the boiling soup. Let boil two or
three minutes. then serve.
CORN CHOWDER:-
Corn chowder is made in the same
way as potato chowder by adding a
can Of corn to the potatoes and onion
at the same time the milk is added.
Only one tablespoon of flour will then
be needed for the thickening.
THICKENED MILK
Another good cold weather dish is
the old-fashioned thickened milk. Stir
smooth with cold milk one teaspoon
full OF salt and six tablespoonfuls OF
flour. Pour this slowly into one quar-
of scalded milk. stirring all the time
to keep from burning. Let cook slow
iy on back of stove for five minutes
then serve with milk or canned fruit.

WARsHIP COSTS MORE IN YARD
Connecticut, However, Was Built by
Eight Hour Labor.


I WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE navy
department this afternoon gave out a
comparative statement of the cost of
construction of the hull and the ma
chinery of the battleships Connecticut
and Louisiana. The former was built
in a government yard and the cost was
$4.535.192 The latter was built at the
Newport News shipyard and the cost
was s4,144912. The greater cost of the
government built ship is said to have
been due chiefly to the fact that the
men employed upon it worked eight
hours day while they received the
same or better wages than were paid
to men in private yards who had longer
workdays.
Despite the discrepancy in cost, gov
eminent officials have strongly recon-
mended that one or more navy yards
should continue to be fully equipped
for the construction of warships. One
argument in favor of this action is that
it would tend to prevent combinations
among private builders. There was but
slight difference in the cost of armOr
and turret mounts on the two vessels,
and it was due wholly to differing
plans and conditions

ART OR DECENCY? 1


Certain passages of a risky play
were so audacious that many of the
spectators on hearing them looked at
one another aghast, smiling, as if to
ask each other if they had heard
Alright: or turned to look at women to
see if they would blush or would rise
to leave the theater. But no woman
at least, of those sitting around me, did
1 see to blush, and all remained intrep-
idly facing the fire. l dismiss the
question of art and do not judge this
sort of drama according to the critic
rions of the pure moralists; but l do
say: To those spectacles women and
girls go. To the spectators who turn
now and then to interrogate them vita
their looks. their very presence re-
plies: This nastiness pleases me; :"
which is as much as to say, ANY one
might say such things in talking with
u.s." which almost signifies. I'VE our
selves would say it," 1t is this which
offends every decent man, however I'M
prejudiced in point of morals he may
be. One may have ones opinion about
the virtue of a woman but when vile
fellow in conversation says in her pres
ence some filthy thing, ones soul re-
volts, even if the woman smiles instead
Of being ashamed-rather more so if
she smiles. And it is not properly our
sense of morality and shame that is
shocked; it is the knowledge that even
in corrupt society there are certain
limits to freedom of language beyond
which one cannot step without trampl-
ing under foot the laws of conven-
ton and of decency which rule social
interC curse and are conditions neces-
sary to its existence.
