The sIeeninn Rahx,s nsmiIe.u

1t is interesting to see how old is the
maternal delusion about the smiling of
babies in their sleep. All children
asleep are taken with a catching Of the
corners OF the mouth, which is as I'M
like as possible to the real smile-the
humorous and delightful little silent
sketch of a laugh, appearing first at
any age between a fortnight and q
month. Yet human sentimentality has
insisted on calling the sleeping gri-
mace, due to fiatulence, a smile, and
even a smile caused by dreams of an
gels. And St Monica must have
been as unintelligent on this point as
any other matron, for St Augustine,
reviewing in his Confessions the
growth of his own mind, mentions that
he had been told Of the coming Of IN
fantile smiles, having appeared pre-
viously in sleep" Thackeray echoes
St. Monica, for he shows US Amelia
sitting by her child, who was smiling
IN his sleep" No baby ever smiled in
his sleep yet or is ever likely to do so.

jamestown Exposition.

Boston, Feb. Tn view of the fact
that the triennial meeting of the gem
eral convention of the Protestant Epis-
cOpal church is to be held this year
at jamestown. Va. number of Epis-

that such a plan as that now announced

ORIGIN Of the Christmas stookino

From Italy comes the legend from
which we are supposed to get the time
honored custom of hanging up the
Christmas stocking Good old st. Mich
olas of Padua used to throw long knit
ted purses tied at both ends into the
open windows Of the very poor people,
and these purses were Of yarn and not
unlike a footless stocking. Finally it
became the custom Of the people to
hang these empty receptacles out Of
their windows on the night before
Christmas so that st. Nicholas would
put a gift into them as be passed by.
By and by, when the coin Of the realm
became scarce, toys were put in for the
children and useful presents for grown
people In the north country. where It
was rather chilly at Christmas time,
the purses were hung on the mantel-
piece, and 1t was believed that tho
good old saint would come down tho
chimney and fill them. When these
purses went out Of fashion, stockings
were substituted and have been used
ever since

mentor Which Rea-
son He Sues.

Milwaukee, Feb. 7.-P. ]. Buckley,
of Waukesha, has been bound over by
Judge Tullar for trial for perjury in
the Cochrane case, in which ]. F.
Cochrane sued the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad for a large sum
Of money alleged to be due him for his
silence in cases involving the alleged
defrauding Of thirty-three railroads Of
money alleged to be due them for mile
age on the st. Paul road tracks. Coch-
rane sued on the ground that he was
to be given $50 a mnoth by the st,
Paul road to refrain from telling other
roads of the sums they had been de
frauded out Of, but he says the st.
Paul road failed to fulfill it's part of
the contract. Buckley, testifying for
the railroad, told different stories at
different hearings of the case, it is al
legged.
Backed by a High Official
The original proceeding from which
this is an outgrowth was one institu-
ted by J. H. Cochrane against sever
al officials of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad for a large sum
of money alleged to be due him for vio-
lation of a contract and conspiracy to
deprive him of sums due him. Coch>
rane was a car accountant employed
by the st. Paul road, and is said to
have deducted from the car mileage Of
other roads many thousands Of dollars
under the specific direction of high
official. Subsequently two roadside
Chicago and Alton and the Chicago
and Eastern Illinois-made demand
upon the road for the sums they al
legged they had been defrauded out Of
by reason of the cuts in car mileage
referred to. The money was paid back.
Alleged Arrangement with Earring.
COchrane alleges that President A.
J. Earring, of the ST. Paul road, sent
for him and inquired about the deduc-
tons, and that Earliug made an ar
rangement TO pay him 20 per cent. of
the amount of the claims of thirty
three other roads as well, and to give
him a position for life at $3.50 q month.
Subsequently the road failed to carry

BLUELAWS ARE TO co
Radical Changes in Massachu-
sets Are Recommended
by Committee
FREER USE OF SUNDAY FAVORED
Legal Work Primarily a Local Issue
Games and Other Pastimes on
Sunday Are Approved.

Boston, Feb. Radical changes in
the statutory laws relating to the OBJ
servance of Sunday are recommended
by the special committee appointed by
the last legislature to revise the Sun
day statutes, which has submitted its
report at the state house. The Sunday
laws recently formed the subject of a
bitter controversy between District At
torney John B. Moran and Police Com
missioner Stephen O'Mara. of the city
Of Boston. In a general way the re-
port fayors a freer use of Sunday by
the people. with more liberties
with reference to outdoor games
and pastimes.
One Law Is Condemned.
The committee is unanimous that the
law permitting religious and charita-
bic associations to present amusements
on Sunday for religious and charitable
purposes. under which 70 per cent. of
the proceeds passes to the charity. is
imperative and inefficient, and often
leads to hypocrisy and fraud. and rec
ommendation is made that this part of
the statutes be repealed.
As to What Is Legal Work.
On the broad question of what
works may be legal on Sunday the
committee agrees that local authori.
tics should be authorized to issue GER
tifcates that in their opinion the work
is necessary, the supreme court to de-
eide upon the legality Of the work in
the event that complaint against it is
made. The committee did not submit
draft Of a bill, but it strongly rec.
commended that every citizen shall have
legal right to one days rest in sew
en-, and 1t maintains that the enjoy
ment Of this right should in no way
jeopardiZe his employment.
Sunday Games and Pastimes.
On the subject of Sunday games an6
other pastimes the committee was
unanimous in its conclusion that limo
cent pastime on field or lawn Is nc
more dangerous to public morals thar
| boating, sailing, driving or automobil
ing, to which no objection is now
| raised, and is much more to be desired
than lounging or lettering during The
leisure hours of the day. In connec
ton with the decision on Sunday
games, however. the committee report
ed adversely upon a bill intended t.
authorize athletic events by United
States seamen at Provincetown OF
Sundays.
