RAINEs' SANDWICH RETIRED.
New York's Famous Law Dodger
Doomed by Court.

NEW YORK. January 12.-After several
years Of service the Raines law sanowicn.
It seems, Is to pass away. The appellate
division OF the supreme court yesterday
afternoon announced its doom in a decision
In which It held that to justify the sale Of
alcoholic beverages In hotels on Sunday
food mustbe ordered which is In good faith
designed to be meal.
Maynard N. Clement. state commissioner
of excise. had applied for an order to can
eel the LIQUOR tax certificate Of Henrietta
Martin Of No. 800 7th avenue the supreme
court having denied the application, and an
appeal had been taken. The appellate d.
vision Of the court yesterday reversed the
previous order with costs. and granted the
motion to revoke the certificate.
Judge Ingraham wrote the majority
opinion OF the court. Presiding Judge Pat
terson and Judges Clarke and Scott con-
curing. Judge Laughlin wrote a dissent
ing opinion. not on law. but on facts.
TO Justify the proprietor Of 8 hotel in
furnishing to transient patron liquor
upon Sunday. Judge Ingraham wrote. "the
situation must be such as to Indicate to a
person of ordinary intelligence that the pa
tron had resorted to the establishment to
obtain In good faith a meal. and that the
liquor he ordered was an incident to that
meal: not that the object was to obtain
liquor, ordering some article of food which
was not consumed to accomplish that pur-
pose. 1t Is the obtaining of the meal in
good faith which authorizes the hotel
Keeper, as part Of that meal, to furnish
liquor.
Then the statute expressly REQUIRES that
TO constitute q person a patron 1t must
appear that he resorted to the hotel for
the purpose Of obtaining meal in the
hours when meals were regularly served
therein, and actually orders and obtains at
such time in good faith a meal therein
Judge Laughlin said he agreed with
Judge Ingraham in his construction of the
law. but he did not think the law had been
violated. Witnesses had testified that the
agents asked for food and the statute did
not prescribe the hours at which meals
might be served. Another fact" he wrote,
that tends to show that it is improbable
the law was violated Is that the special
agents were recognized as such by en-
ployes of the restaurant before their orders
were taken"

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, January 12-The special tax

Higgins met at the Murray Hill Hotel to-
day While no definite action was taken. it
was virtually decided to report an income
tax bill to the legislature.
Tentative bills prepared provide for the
levying of an annual tax of per cent upon
all incomes exceeding $500; for incomes ex-
ing s25, 900, tax of per cent; above $25 600
and up to and including $4,000, a tax of 5
per cent above $4,000 and up to and in
Guiding 500, 600 10 per cent; between $780,
900 and 100000, Is per cent, and all over
100000, 20 per cent.
By the terms of this bill one-third of the
income derived from the tax is to go to the
which the collections are made. Every per-
son domiciled in New York or having res
idence therein equal to period of three
householder or has an Office for such
period within the state, shall be subject to
the tax.
The report of the commission is awaited
with great interest by individuals and cor
porations likely to be affected by an income
tax law. Warner Miller, chairman of the
commission, said today:
There can be various forms of income
tax levied. There may be tax levied upon
a citizens salary earnings or his earnings
derived from investment. The tax may also
be made to apply more severely upon one
class of income than another. All these
forms are perfectly constitutional

SCHOOL LEGISLATION.
Compilation Prepared by the Bureau
of Education.


Members Of the various state legislatures
need not in the future ransack library
shelves with dusty volumes In looking for
precedents I'm framing new school legisla-
ton. The bureau Of education has pre-
pared q publication that Is calculated to
do away with all unnecessary labor on the
part Of state legislators. 1t Is entitled
state School Systems and is the third
Of that bureaus series Of bulletins. The
work. which Is of particular interest to
the educational world. was prepared by
Prof. Edward G.. Elliott Of the University
Of Wisconsin. and contains . summary OF
all the school legislation OF the past two
years In each Of the states and 10 classified
by states. together with critical notes I'M
der the several heads. It's object Is thus
set out:
1.-THE legislatures Of forty states will con-
vene on or soon after the first day OF
January. 1907 In the most OF these states
bills will undoubtedly be introduced look
ing to improvements In the several state
systems Of education. 1t frequently hap
pens that the trainers and promoters OF
such bills. and members of the legislature
who are called to vote upon them, are de-
cedents set in the recent school legislation
of other states. and may. tn fact derive
many valuable suggestions from such leg
islation. It Is hoped that the publication
here offered will in large measure meet
this need and will accordingly prove d.
rectIy serviceable In the spread of I'M
provements in our educational systems

BURLINGTON, VT. January r. - That

In this connection is recalled the death

was that the deaths were caused by the

Evil as a Negative.

''The new theology looks upon evil as
negative rather than positive term. 1t is
the shadow where light ought to be; it is
the perceived privation of good; it belongs
only to finiteness. Pain is the effort of the
spirit to break through the limitations
which it feels to be evil. The new theology
believes that the only way in which the true
nature of good can be manifested either by
God or man is by struggle against the
limitation, and, therefore. it is not appalled,
by the long story of cosmic suffering. Ev-
erybody knows this after a fashion. The
things we most admire and reverence in
one another are things involving struggle
and self-sacrifice.
The new theology watches with sympa-
thy the development of modern science, for
1t believes itself to be in harmony Herewith.
1t is the religious articulation of the scien-
tihc method 1t therefore follows that 1t is
in sympathy with scientific criticism of the
important religious literature known as the
Bible. While recognizing the value of the
Bible unique record of religious expert
ence. it handles it as freely and as critically
as 1t would any other book. 1t believes that
the seat of religious authority is within, not
without, the human soul Individual man Is
so constituted as to be able to recognize,
ray by ray. the truth that helps him up
ward. no matter from what source it comes.
Immortality o. the Soul.
THE new theology, OF course. believes In
the immortality of the SOUL but only on the
ground that every individual consciousness
| is ray of the universal consciousness and
cannot be destroyed 1t believes that there
are many stages in.the upward progress OF
the soul in the unseen world before # be-
comes fully and consciously one with ITS In
finite source We make our destiny in the
next world by orr behavior in this. and
ultimately every soul will be perfected.
From all this il will surely be clear that
the new theology brushes aside many of the
| most familiar dogmas still taught from
the pulpit We believe that the story of
the fall in the literal sense is untrue. 1t Is
literature not dogma, the romance of an
early age used for the ethical instruction
of man. We believe that the very imper-
lection of the world today is due to Gods
will and is a working-out of Himself with
its purpose, a purpose not wholly hidden
from us.
1.-The doctrine of sin which holds us to be
blame worthy for deeds that we cannot
help VIC believe to be a false view Sin is
simply selfishness. 1t is an offense against
the God within. violation of the law of
love. We reject wholly the common in
depreciation of atonement, that another is
beaten for our fault We believe not in a
| final Judgment out in judgment that Is
ever proceeding. Every sin Involves suf-
fering suffering which cannot be RENTED
by any work of another. With deed Is
done its consequences are eternal.
I'VE believe Jesus is and was divine. but
so are We. His mission was to make us
realize divinity and our oneness with
| God and we are called to live the life which
he lived"
