When Thomas Jefferson, the actor,
struck Rocky Ford some years ago,
being billed to play in our public
hall Of that day. he stuck his head in
not Joe Jefferson. but I'm not gcing
to play in that shack" and he cam
celled his engagement and went over
and sat with his feet on the desk at
the St. James until the next train
pulled in.
When Thomas Jefferson appeared
on the boards OF our comfortable,
commodious and tasty little opera
house Thursday evening OF last week
he had no fault to find with the
house either architecturally or MI
merically. Rocky Ford did herself
credit by giving him positively full
house.-the biggest house OF this
season: which shows that while we
NAV have all due appreciation Of the
purely nonsense show. We also ap-
preciate dramatic art.
And although Thomas Jefferson is
not yet the peer of his illustrious
father and probably never will be.
he gave his audience the most artis-
tic rendering Of that pathetic COM
edy which made his father famous
that any new generation of play-go-
ers is likely to get. The charisters
that have been elaborated out OF
Irving's little story. or woven into

portrayed. Mr.. Jefferson supporting
himself as rip with an ali-round

Heindrich and little Mccnie, especial

parts Of the play takes nothing from
the opportunity afforded Mr.. lsffcr-
son in the title role. and his dclinca-

Her Purse and His Handkerchief.


 "The thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts" The other day a young woman who had dropped her purse full of pay money for the corps of girls under her charge, considered the thoughts of youth to be rather too Hong"
 She was in one of the large depart ment stores, and as her hands were occupied she let her purse lie for a few moments where it had fallen. But her eye was on it. In the meantime a bright little fellow not more than nine or ten years old left his parents near by and deftly covered the purse with a handkerchief.
 The woman, who is a perfectly self possessed young person, could hardly believe her eyes, but she waited to see what the boy would do. Just as he was stopping to his prize she placed her foot quietly upon 1t. The young stcr slipped back without word to the well dressed respectable" people with whom he was.
 Then the woman picked up her purse and. taking the handkerchief over to the lad, handed it to him, saying, There is no reason why you should lose your handkerchief just because you didn't get my pursew-New York Post.

Opposes Milk Pasteurization.

Brussels, Sept. 1G.-Dr. Henry l.. Colt of Newark, N. J., president of the American Association of Medical Milk Commissions, strongly opposed in an address at the international milk con- gress the compulsory pasteurization of milk as a means of effectively improv- ing the supply of milk. Dr. Colt said that to employ pasteurization as any thing more than a temporary expedi- ent would be undesirable. because it would remove the incentive to the public to compel the producer to ac- complish an improvement. Pasteurized milk in bulk is not only intrinsieally less desirable than clean raw milk, said Dr. Colt. but is actually unsafe unless it is consumed within twenty four hours and is kept at or below 10 degrees C..

Frederick Gillmor, trustee of the bankrupt estate of Charles E. Hoad- ley has brought suit against Louis Raffel for damages or $10,00o. Some time previous to Hoadley's going into insolvency he had certain transac- tions with Raffel which were discussed before Referee in Bankruptcy New ton wherein for loan of 5000, the latter obtained real estate and mining stock worth twice the amount of th. loan. There are two counts in the suit. In the first the deed to the real estate is asked to be set aside and in the second count it is alleged that the transfer of the mining stock was not legally made, and that fraud was practiced on the town records. The suit is returnable to the superior court. The trustee is represented by Attorney Carmody.

A GREAT DANGER
Modernism is Denounced in an Encyclical Just Issued By
 Pope Plus X.
WILL FORM COUNCILS

Rome, Sept. 16-The Osservatore Romano, organ of the Vatican, to-day issued an important ncyclical of Pope Plus X on modernism which really is completion of his recent syllabus. The document sets forth that modernism is a serious danger to the church, refers in detail to the various features of modernism, con demns it as dangerous in philosophy, faith, theology, history, criticism and reforms and arrives at the conclusion that modernism Is synthesis of all heresy and must logically lead to atheism. rr
 The encyclical makes the following provisions:
 First-The teaching of philosophy, positive theology, etc. is to be carried on in the church schools and universi- ties, but in a Catholic spirit.
 Second-Modernists are to be re- moved from professorships and the direction or educational institutions
 Third---The clergy and faithful are not to be allowed to read modernist publications
 Fourth---A committee of censorship is to be established in every diocese to pass upon the publications which the clergy and faithful shall be permitted to read.
 Fifth---The encEclical of the late Pope Leo XIII prohibiting the clergy from assuming the direction of publi- mission, and providing for supervision of the work of ecclestical writers, is confirmed.
 h---Ecclesiastical congresses, except on rare occasions, are prohibit ed
 Seventh---A council is to be constl- tuted in every diocese to combat modern errors.

OBJECT TO PURE MILK RULES
Health Department of New York Says
 Cows Hair Must Be Cut. SS

ueath DePartment or NeW York says
 Cows Hair Must Be Cut.
 Florida, N Y., Sept. 16.-Farmers in this section of the country are receiv- Ing from the New York department of health letters setting forth the require ments of the department necessary to insure pure milk supply for the New York city market. The requirements run all the way from cleaning the window panes of the COW pen to cut ting the cows hair.
 One requirement. to which local farm CTS make strenuous objection is that requiring that the COW shed be thor oughly cleaned before the COWS are milked. As the milking is done very early each morning. perhaps long be- fore daylight, it can be seen that the cleaning process will be almost an i'm, possibility. The farmer up this way Is not wealthy, and many of them have not the cash to make the re- quired improvements about their prem lses. Another requirement. is that all the help be provided with clean suits when they go in to make the cows comfortable or relieve them of their milk. s.t
