AZ Modern Children's Crusade

The modern study of milk tends to
one end, the exclusion of bacteria by
cleanliness, not their destruction by
heat, 1t does, however, consider pas
teurization fairly satisfactory sub
stitute where pure milk cannot be OBJ
tanned. Second, mortality statistics
tend to prove that exclusion is neces-
sary for the child and for the nation
1t may be at the present moment we
are little weary of reform. The
pendulum of warning may have gone
too far in some directions, but in one
direction it has not gone for enough
The lives of the city children hang
in the balance to-day. If there is any
means by which we can bring rudy
cheeks and healthy bodies back to
children unjustly deprived of them,
If there is any way in which we can
lower our present fearful death rate,
who Of the community can refuse to
lend interest, or give aid? The
trumpet call which summons should
rouse each deadened ear, quicken
each deadened soul. 1t is the call to
new all-embracing, all-powerful
children's crusade. Hollis Godfrey,

AIdrich's Greed.

The creed of such an artist as Aid
rich is simple and brief: To reveal
his own impressions and intuitions of
the beauty and significance of life
with as much of the living quality of
their revelation and even of the in
Simultaneous vividness of the moment
of inspiration as he can transmit
through a relatively cumbersome
medium of expression; hence, to fix
the essential and eliminate super
fuous detail; to complete the work
within as small compass as possible,
SO that it may be apprehended as a
whole and the impression be instan-
taneous, vivid and direct; to make
the carefully planned symmetry of
form felt only in the simplicity, clear
ness and harmony of the effect That
he was enabled by temperament and
good fortune to follow and even prac-
tically attain this ideal, independent
of the support and influence of the
public, gives his poetic work unique
value aside from any other qualities
which it may possess or lack.-Al-
bert Phelps, in the Atlantic.

10000 GRAY HAIRED
VETERANS IN Line
Forty-first Parade Of the G. A. R.
in Saratoga a Stirring Sight.
AGED SOLDIERS MARCH IN RAIN
Traversed Mile Through Village
Streets, While Thousands, With
Uncovered Heads, Watched the
FalteringLines and Old Banners.


Streets, While Thousands, With
Uncovered Heads, Watched the
FaItering Lines and Old Banners.
Saratoga, N. Y.-The Grand Army
of the Republic held its parade-its
forty-frst. Ten thousand limping,
gray haired veterans, the remnant of
the army, whose. scores of thousands
passed in review at the national CAPT.
tai when the war was over, braved a
driving storm to march once more
beneath their battle flags. As un-
mindful of the storm as in the days
of eel" when youth and vigor and
love of the flag knew no physical
bounds, these dwindling thousands
passed once more in review.
While scores dropped out when the
rain began to fall the ranks held their
line and braved the driving storm as
if again going to their places in the
front of battle. The rain poured
with steadily increasing force as they
marched, but through the drenching
torrents they kept on. Few there
were who even held umbrellas. For
an hour and more the old soldiers
plodded on between lines of cheering
people as plucky as themselves, keep
ing step to the music.
Governor Charles E. Hughes, his
military staff, the national officers of
the Grand Army and distinguished
visitors stood on the reviewing stand,
poorly shielded from the driving
storm
When the last rank had passed in
review the rain ceased, the skies
cleared and the sun broke out. The
dripping but undaunted old soldiers
found their ways to lodging places,
satisfied that such a trife as driv-
ing rainstorm had no more arrested
their onward march than it had in the
days of war.
The parading distance was reduced
to one mile, the shortest ever fixed
for the national encampment. For
the first time the parade was limited
to members of the Grand Army in
stead of being open to all survivors
of the war.
The village was ablaze with the
national colors, covering the fronts
of buildings, festooned at every con-
venient point, strung in rows at short
intervals across the streets and COM
pletely covering the interior of the
great convention hall where the ses-
sions of the encambment were held.
One of the features of the parade was
the presence of a big flag which COW
cred the body of General Grant on
its way from Mount McGregor to the
tomb. In custody of the Gren-
adler Guard, commanded by Colonel
A. S. Fowler, of Little Rock, Ark.
of which every man was over six
feet tall, and each represented one
of the forty-five departments of the
G. A. r., this old flag brought up the
rear.

All South and West Scott
at the Idea of Hard Times

New York City.-Just at this time
while pessimists who tremble at the
mere mention of Wall Street are
looking for financial stringency, New
York hotels are reaping a harvest
from an army of men whose predic-
lions reflect the financial conditions
better than can any rise or depres-
sion of securities. This legion repre-
sents the merchants of the entire con-
tinent.
1t is a conservative estimate to say
that $5,500,000 has been spent in
New York City by this buying and
selling commercial army, in small adj
vance orders, in living expenses and
in amusement, for the daily expedi-
lures of majority of the visitors
have been very heavy.
You may use Wall Street here as
bugaboo with which to brighten
Fifth avenue and to keep Newport
meek at times" said Ernest Jackson,
at the Cadillac, "but the American
people don't tremble at the mention
of the name any more. The talk of
an approaching panic, while it seems
to make New York feel glum, is
scoffed at by those who appreciate

States.

''If there is a panic coming, as

If they do get together and say there
is stringency? That doesn't alter
the fact that Texas will grow 4,00O,-
600 bales of cotton, worth at present
prices $3.50, 100000, and that the
other cotton-growing States will add
100000 additional bales, worth
$450. 100000.
Think what that crop alone
means to the country. A $6O0,0OO,-
600 cotton crop means prosperity for
the South. That is an enormous sum
of money - within $150,000,000 of
the debt of New York City,"

COURT vO|Ds TWO-CENT FARE
Pennsylvania New Statute is
Held to Be Unconstitutional.
Unreasonable and Contiscatory, Phil
adelphia Common Pleas Holds in
Restraining Collection of Fine.

Philadelphia, Pa.-On the ground
that it is unconstitutional, in that it
violates an existing contract between
the Pennsylvania Railroad and the
State, Common Pleas Court No. de-
clared the two cents mile rate law
invalid and ineffective.
Judges Wilson and Audenried,
who handed down the opinion in the
case, described the act of April 5,
1907, which provided for the maxi
mum rate of two cents a mile on all
railroads within the State, as funrea-
sonable and confiscatory.
The new law, which was hailed
with approval by the people of the
State, is declared to be in violation
Of the constitution of the State, be-
cause it docs injustice to the corpor-
ators of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company by establishing so low a
maximum rate of fare for the carry
ing of passengers as to render that
branch of the plaintiffs business un-
remunerative, providing no compen-
sation for the loss thereby occa-
stoned"
In the charter Of the railroad au-
thority was given to the incorpora-
tors to fix such rates as the president
and directors might deem reasonable,
and it is about this implied contract
that the entire case before Judges
Wilson and Audenried hinged. In
word, they decided that the Legis-
lature has no right to abrogate the
contract.
City Solicitor Gendell, who argued
before the court that the railroad by
increases of its capitalization had for
feited its right to make any claims
under its charter, announced as soon
as the decision was made known that
he would first file exceptions and
then take an appeal to the Supreme
Court.
If the State Supreme Court sus-
tains the lower court the city will
have no further appeal. IT., on the
other hand, the Supreme Court
should declare the law constitutional
the railroad has the privilege of car
rying the case to the United States
Supreme Court.
