Sins Consequences Eternal
ooh 7 know about those scriptures
that saw a mans sins are blotted out.
II is true that the guilt is forgiven, but
the consequences of sin must go on.
and on. and on, and can only be meas
ured bv an infinite hand. No forgive
ness or no repentance will stop the
evil from working out it's natural con-
sequences. Sin sets at work train
of influences that will go on through
our eternity and man will not be judg-
ed until the results are known. Sin
dwarfs. mains, deforms and cripples
the man and makes the soul smaller
and circumscribes it's area. Results
must continue although the sin is for
given.
"On,v two forces are known to sci
ence-push and pull: and only two
forces are known really in the spiritual
world-hell and heaven; the attractive
and the repellant. Man Is damned as
soon as he enters into sin and as long
as he remains there is hopelessly lost.
Man who sins must suffer the terrors
of the universal laws of nature; he
cannot escape punishment except
through repentance; but the only true
and supreme motive for repentance is
found in the goodness of God and his
WILLINGNESS to accept into his kingdom
every soul that brings forth fruits.
meat for repentance.

discovery that the head mistress OF
girls school who recently died was a
man.
She. or he. had led a very quiet, re-
tired life and was much esteemed by
pupils and parents alike. After the
somewhat sudden death the sex was
discovered In the private rooms oc
cupied by the teacher with varlet!
or articles of male use, such as pipes
aand tobacco. there were found docu
ments which explained the deception.
1t appears that years ago the de
ceased was banished to Siberia Tor q
noliticaI offense. He escaped on the
WAY, and being able to secure a Wo
mans passport decided to adopt the re-
male role for good. The disguise was
carried out with marvellous success TOT
many years.

Pat Mccoy was informed by his ply

far from ended, for the knee will have
to be deliberately broken and reset.
In a letter to her son in this city,
Mrs. Mccoy says that the physicians
had agreed on the reset, but no COM

NEW UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT.
Prof. Henry p. Judson VIII Succeed
DIR. william X. Harper.

Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 1.-The trustees
of the University of Chicago were
called to meet today and it is under
stood that announcement will be
made at an early date, probably to-
day or tomorrow, of the decision of
the trustees in regard to a successor
to the late DR.. William r. Harper, as
the university's president. Prof.
Harry Pratt Judson, who has directed
the affairs of the university since DR..
Harpers death, is aboL. the only one
prominently mentioned for the presi-
dency. The names of President
Faunce of Brown university and sew
eral other equally distinguished edu-
Gators have been mentioned from
time to time, but more recently DR..
Judson appears to have become the
only candidate. Moreover, he is un-
derstood to have the backing of John
D. Rockefeller and If this be true, he
is, of course, assured of the place.
DIR. Judson has been connected with
the University of Chicago, as professor
of political science and dean Of the
faculty of arts, literature and science,
since 1892. He came to Chicago from
the University OF Minnesota, where
he had been professor of history for
seven years. He is a native of New

conferences with the Whyte company
with regard to the coal supply of
Saskatchewan province. Motherwell
has appraised Whyte of the fact that

of purchasing a coal area from the

ing it in the public ownership princi-
pie. Mr., Motherwell is still investi-
eating the matter and the project is
becoming more important every day.

Among the recommendations made
by State Land Agent West, in his BIZ
ennial report to the governor, is that,
since the state has about 100000
acres Of school land in EASTER Ore
gon which is unfit for anything en-
cept grazing, the state advertise the
lands for lease in the same manner
the federal government leases as
grazing lands. He says that thew
should be leased, subject to sale, and,
in the event Of an opportunity to sci,
the unearned portion Of the rental
paid should be returned.
He also recommends that the rec
ords of the office should be gone
over thoroughly from the date OF its
creation, in ordeE to clear up bad til
I ties, so the present occupants of the
iand will not be in constant fear of
expulsion, and indemnity lands err
roneously patented to the state may
be validated by substituting new base.
He says there are about 5000 acres
of lands which have been turned
down by the government, on account
of invalid base, upon which the state
will have to reimburse innocent pur-
chasers to the amount of $4,000.
Through the creation of several new
forest reserves the state has acquired
about $4,000 acres of valid base, the
price upon which the board has fixed
at $3.50 per acre, until further notice,
which would be ready saleable, but
he has not the time to attend to in
demnity selections properly, and asks
for additional clerical assistance in
order that he may get out and dispose
of these lands for the benefit of the
school fund.

NEW TAXES IN FRANCE.
Foreign Companies Doing Business
There TO BE Taxed on Their Entire
Capital.

Capital
The British chamber or commerce
In Paris is endeavoring to obtain
notifications of the provisions of a
bill concerning foreign companies
trading in France, which has recently
been introduced in the French parlia-
ment by the ministry.
one of the provisions complained
of compels all companies having
branch offices in France to register
and to pay a registration tax of Il
per cent on the whole of their capital.
and another compels the publication
of the annual balance sheet in one
Of the official journals.
The British chamber of commerce
says that 1t is an organization COM
prising companies with a capital of
$10,000,0O0 or over, whose turnover
in France represents but a small por-
tion of such capital and to tax these
companies with registration fees
would be gross injustice and would be
contrary to the fiscal principle by
which the take de dividende" is only
levied on certain proportion of the
capital of foreign companies estab-
lished in France, where no such
transfer tax imposed upon the trans
fer of property from the vendors to
the company, and that such tax, al
ready paid in the company's country
of origin, can not be equitably i'm
posed in France, where no such trans
fer has taken place; that the imposi-
tion of the tax will lead to its evasion
by perfectly legal means and will
seriously hamper the development of
important industries.
The publication of balance sheets is
matter. less capable of adjustment
than that relating to the registration
tax, though the companies classed as
private are not likely to see their way
clear to comply with it, but as all
French companies without distinction
are subject to this formadty, it is
hardly likely an exception will be
made in favor Of foreign undertake
ings.
