Judge Hargis is especially pleased with this
feature Of Sandy Hook. Jackson has always
been inaccessible to the newspapers. When cor

whole. One Of them, writing to The Louisville
Courier-Journal" regarding the change of venue,
fires this Parthian shot at Jackson:
The train carrying the troops, lawyers and
corrasponden+s p1llled out for locality where
. man can breathe more freely and not have to

him.
Special Judge Carnes, too, is glad to get away.
He saws mo more Jackson for me-" He has sat
in Jackson twice. The first time, as we have
seen he thought the interests Of justice de

Jury from among the pistol toting bystanders,
and this time he thought the same interests

'for me that Judge Carnes is loafer.' Men
talk the way they shoot down there-straight.

SUFFER- Mods.

We yield to no one in respectful regard for the
versatile and trenchant craftsmanship of the
Hon. William Sulzer There is Il Claylike dash
and brilliancy in the public utterances and pub
lie performances of the Man Who Looks Like
Clay We have found instruction and profit in
the lucubratiOns of the East Side leader. whether
he has been engaged in eXpOunding and vindicat-
ing the Constitution, sCOurging the trusts demon
strating the advantages of Il fiat J0cent silver
dollar, explaining the origin and effects of sun
spots or contrasting for local purposes his own
brand of conservative radcalism" with the
Hearst brand of "radicalized Populsm." Mr..
Sulzer is convincing and capable in many roles.
But he is mortal, and, therefore, fallible, and
no more than other great men can he escape the
fate which ovCrtakes those who carry too many
pitchers TO the we'll just as inevitably rs it does
those who make the journey too many times
with one pitcher. Homer mods; so does Mr..
Sulzer.
There appeared in n recent issue of The Con-
gressional Record an address delivered In Jersey
City on February u last by the East Sides favor
lite Representative in Congress 1t was ordered
printed in the record OF the proceedings of the
House of Representatives at the request of Mr..
Towne, Mr.. Suffers friend and colleague. The
House found no ncongruity in that request.
Neither do we, for anything which Mr., Sulzer
says IS quite worthy of preservation in our Off
claI annals. In picturing the character Of Lin
coin to his Jersey City auditors the inhertor of
Henry Clay's mask and mantle availed himself
by way Of peroraton of half dozen verses from
LOwell's we'll known "COmmemoraton Ode
Mr.. Suffers versatility reaches far, but il has
limitations. It balks and founders when Peg
asus has to be mounted and mastered. As a stu
dent of the Dictionary of Quotations" and as a
member and reviser of fixed poetic texts Mr..
Suzer hardly comes up to expectations. Lowell
wrote:
But at last silence comes;
These all are gone, and. standing Ike a tower.
Our children shall behold his fame,
The kindly-earnest, brave, foTseeing man.
Sagacous. patient. dreading praise. not blame.
New birth of our new SOIL the first American.
As Sulzerized and mbedded in The Congress
slonal Record the lines read:
But at last silence comes-these all are gone;
And standing like tower our children's children
shall behold the glory Of his fame.
This kindly. earnest and farSeeing man
Sagacious, patient. dreading praise. not blame
New birth of our new soil-the first American.
Our chldren's children shall behold the glory
Of his fame" We are almost of the opinion that
the Lowell heirs have a case for civil damages
against Mr.. Suzer and his publisher, the Public
Printer.

In this epoch Of research. when thousands Of
skilled investigators are spending their fortunes
and their lives in colating facts and figures
about everything between Packingtown. Ill,
and Concord. N H. must expect new and
strange ways OF getting at inaccessible truths.
But Professor Henderson. a Chicago sOciOIogIst,
has Outstripped all competitors in barring human
secrets. We do not know his method, but judge
its power by its results. Professor Henderson
has gathered statistics on courtship. and finds.
after footing up the columns. that modern love
making Is cursed with many evils and ought to
be reformed by educational authorities. Now,
professor, how did you get your facts? Did
hypnotism unlock the chambers Of 1918 maid
ems hearts and tempt confessions from 1861
youths? Or did you hide behind hedge at the
foot Of the veranda on summer nights? Or did
you use monograph or wireless telegraphy, or
what? You should disclose your methods so

there was so much objection to letting the pro-
posed Bronx Valley sewer empty into the Hud-
son River when there were already many others
emptying into it. The answer IS indicateds by

BOYS BRIGADE
HAD CAMPFIRE
Large Turnout at Affair In Baptist
Chapel Electrical Glare
a Feature.

The Boys Brigade, of the Baptist
church, held a campfire in the chapel
Saturday night. About thirty menu
bers of the brigade were present, and
all had an enjoyable time. The boys
met in the chapel at Z o'clock under
the direction of Rev. w. P. Hill, and
were marched to the rear chapel,
which represented a forest. Cedar
and pine trees had been erected to
initiate a forest. In the center, and
surrounded by trees, was ar imitation
of a brightly-burning camp fire, made
by a pretty electrical display. Around
this the boys marched. Later they
sat around in the glare of the camp
fire and told stories and sang songs.
Rev. Mr.. Hill told many interesting
stories. Several humorous songs
were rendered by Fred BRIGGS. Mus
ic during the evening was furnished
by Captain Charles Hinkel. Refresh
ments were served under the direc-
ton of Mrs. w. G.. Rock. Just before
leaving each boy was given a present.
Several boys under fourteen years
of age have been applying for admis-
sion to the Boys Brigade. Rev. w.
P. Hill wishes to state that boys un-
der that age cannot enter, and only
room for a very few more is left.

A NEW CONGREGATION
Temple To Which Rabbi Solomon
Went From This City.

The New York congregation to
take charge of which Rabbi Elias l..
Solomon left the Congregation Beth
Mordecai, of this city, is a new con
gregation which has sprung up in the
Bronx, and is attracting attention by
the influence it is beginning to eXer-
else in the locality in which it Is sit
uated. 1t is the Congregation Kehil-
ath Israel, which after an existence
of about two years, has just pur-
chased a building at 1852 Jackson
avenue, near the Junction of Boston
roda and 168th street. The members
of the congregation are adherents of
traditional Judaism, and they are de-
sirous of establishing an orthodox
synagogue characterized by refine
ment, dignity and decorum. Adher-
ence to the old ritual and loyalty to
the olden forms will be combined
with reverence, solemnity, and i'm
pressiveness.
Efforts will be made to appeal to
both young and old by means of an
excellent school for children, English
sermons, a children's choir, congre-
gational singing, and generally at
tractive services.

MAKING PAPER FROM PEAT.

Under the startling title, From
Peat to Paper in Two Hours" James
Cooke Mills describes, in the Techni-
cal World Magazine for December a
wonderful industry which has sprung
up in Michigan. BY a peculiar pro-
cess which the author details, the
peat is converted into cardboard, fin
ished, weighed and tied in packages
ready for shipment-all in two hours,
and at a cost of So a ton, whereas the
strawboard now in use costs over $50
a on to produce 1t is not a matter
of paper and pencil plans and theo-
retical profits, either, for the plant
has been working twenty-four hours
a day, six days a week, for several
months; and turning out about thir-
ty tons of the finished product daily.
All that the plant can produce is al
present being used in the manufac-
ture of cartons, by the makers ot
breakfast foods and other food pro-
ducts. The finished product is super
ior to the cardboard made from straw
or wood plup, in several ways. The
passing of the peat pulp over hot rolls
in the process of manufacture brings
to the surface of the paper the natur-
al oil of the peat, and makes the sur
face of the finished product water
proof and %antiseptic. Besides this,
peat paper is lacking in the odor
which straw or wood pulp paper pos
sesses. The peat cardboard is also
extremely tough.

A NEW YORK CITY FUNERAL.

William Allen Whites comparison
of New York City and Emporia, Kan
sas, in the American Magazine for
January, is full of fun and ideas.
Here is the difference between fun
erals in New York City and Emporia:
Three years ago we sent Charley
Vernon, the best reporter on the Ga
zette force, to New York for a holiday
and he came back with a poor opin-
ion of the town. The first thing that
shocked him was to see a funeral
Gathering down the street at a fast
trot, and as we are rather accurate
about such matters in Emporia, Char
ley instinctively counted the carriages
and found that there were less than
twenty, though he learned afterward
| that it was the funeral of a man
worth a million. We have had only
one funeral in Il town of a man
worth a million, and that was three
miles long. Charley says also that
there were no buggies in that mil
lionaire's funeral procession-the
| m%ourners all rode in closed carriages.
This is odd to us, for in a funeral
procession here in Emporia, the
hearse is escorted by the wagonette-
a long, low rakish-looking craft, with
a seat on each side; the pail bearers
ride in the wagonette, and have a
moderately good time, and If 1t is a
funeral of prominence the pail bear
ers ARE generally leading lawyers oil
doctors or business e Following
| the hearse come the hacks-nevei
! less than three and sometimes as
many as a dozen. After the hacks in
the funeral procession come the dou.
BILE seated surreys-the undercut sur
reys taking precedence over the tor
buggies, and after them come the
~runabouts, and, if the funeral Is an
unusually long one, the spring wog-
ons of the farmers bring up the rea.
1t means something to die in EN-
poria; it is not the every day event
in a mans life that 1t seems to be in
New York.
Indeed, when a prominent man
dies, or one whom we love, the mayor

calling on the merchants to close
their stores, and the banks close their
doors, at the hour of his funeral. And
. when Mr.. Soden, who had run the
mill for fifty years, died last sum-
mer, though his funeral was on Sat
urday, when the streets of the town
were crowded with farmers who had
come to town to trade, the stores and
banks were closed at the very busiest
part of the afternoon, and we slipped
on our Sunday clothes and left Com
mercial street and sat for an hour on
the lawn about his house, under the
broad trees that he planted half a
century ago. And while the preach
er preached from the front steps Of
the porch of the house of mourning
and while the choir moaned inside
the house, up town the stores were
closed and business stopped. Yet Mr.
Soden never held an Office in all hi:
life, and would be counted a pool
man in New York. But unless ont
contends that the death of a frient
is a mere incident of the day, like the
loss of an old hat, we here in En-
poria see some things more sanel.
and more humanely than they do il
New York, where death in a house
only interests the servants next door
