prison reform movement now being
agitated in both England and America

the latter will make positive denial
of criminal negligence, claiming on
the other hand, that the accident was
due to the condition of the weather
which on the morning of the accident
was very foggy and cloudy.
The states attorney is appearing fo,
the people and will make strong
endeavor to convict the defendants of
the charge of which they stand ac-
cused. The latter have been enjoying
liberty on bonds of $4,000 each, fur
nished, it is claimed, by the 500 rail-
road.
There are twelve witnesses for the
stated and six for the defense. The
hearing will last two or three days.

woMEN's CLUBS.

In many towns of this size wo-
mems clubs are numerous, and
while they are criticised by some,
they are certainly beneficial in
many ways. In small towns and
villages the club has been a
special providence to many a
weary mother or to the woman
of few early advantages and large
aspirations. In our great cities
women's clubs have been the first
to institute social reforms and to
call public athon to crying evils.
They have controlled superficial
and selfish social customs until
such customs have become obso-
lete. In home government and
the training of children they long
ago struck the keynote of a
grand choral of reform which
will become more harmoni
Gus as the years roll by. Out of
the selfish "ego" they have
evolved the progressive i've"
They have strengthened two
weak hands with the combined
power Of twenty or hundred;
they have taken a dull, uncut
gem OF thought and polished it
until it has been fit for the purest
setting in refined gold; they have
mastered great difficulties, con
quered absurd prejudices, and
solved difficult problems; and the
grandest work of all has been to
teach the women their own pos
sibilities and the glory of their
own heritage.

The good book says; "Give
to everyone that asketh thee, !"
but that doesn't mean to give a
drunkard money to buy whisky;
it doesn't mean to give the baby
q hammer and looking glass be-
cause he asks for it, and il does
not mean hat we should give to
professional beggars who travel
from town to town. The Bible
doesn't always mean, literally,
what it says, butt always means

blue ribbon for the most compre-
hensive exhibit shown by any state

fruit. Prof G. 5. Wilson of Cornell
had the following to say: The Arizo-
ma fruit attracted more attention
than any other collection. Its size
was remarkable. 1t possessed a high
and rich color which surpasses that Of
the eastern fruit. When tested for
quality it was not found wanting. The
variety of fruits from single state

from this exhibit that fruit growing in
