1t isn't the dull child that is having
It hardest in its first year at school,
but the child who has never been
taught to obey. Teacher has not much
time for moral suasion, and the moth
er's darling who doesn't yield to the
first gentle urging will feel the weight
of the iron hand in the velvet glove.
After all, 1t is the kindest as well as
the wisest thing for the child for its
mother to teach it the lesson Of obedi
ence at her knee.

HOLD ARMENIAN PRIEsT.

Martouguessian, Ex-Tressurer of the
 Hunchakfst, Arrested In New York.
 NEW YORK, July 30.-Father Le- won't Martouguessian, an Armenian, former treasurer of the Hunchakist and an intimate friend of Khachado- rian, the assassin of H. s. Tavshan- jan, was locked up in police headquar- ters last night on charge of attempt ed extortion.
 The complainants are three Arme- nian merchants. But when the priest was arraigned In the Tombs court this morning only short affidavit, made by Inspector McCafferty, was present. ed.
 The priest is believed to be the head of band of Armenian blaekmailers who have made hundreds of thousands of dollars by levying tribute from wealthy oriental dealers.
 Immediately after Martouguessian's arrest four squads of detectives were sent from headquarters with orders to raid several Armenian cafes in the nelghborhood of Lexington avenue and Twenty-seventh street and arrest any man found with weapon. As result of the raid several prisoners were brought in and locked up overnight.
 Several Armenians were brought to the Tombs to see if they could recog- nize Tavshanjian's assassin, but none of them knew him.
 The assassins right name is Bedros Khachadorian, and he has lived at the home of his uncle in Lowell, Mass, for years. He is an ardent adherent of the new Hunchakist and devoted admirer of Martouguessian The priest has visited him in Lowell several times and always stayed at his house. The police got a large number of pa pers at the priests house, showing, 1t is said, his connection with Huncha- kist plots. They also confiscated docu- ments at the Ararat cafe, which is a l Hunchakst headquarters.
 The calendar taken there was evil dently designed as reminder to weak kneed members that the assassin's s knife was ever ready. The date 1904 i on it was the year following the ex- puIsion of two leaders from the old party, and the portraits were those of three victims, members of the old par ty, who were murdered by the ex- pelled faction. They were Meko, Chiti- jan, and Shiranian, all assassinated l abroad.
 The police and the district attorneys 1 office promise new and startling de velopments along the line of punish ment for the blackmailing gang and quick justice for every man concerned in the murder of Tavshanjian.

Stanislaus Barron, seven years old, with his pock- cts full of torpedoes, stumbled and fell. They exploded and tore large hole in his breast, from which he will probably die.

TOO MANY LAWS.
It's . Terrible Doom to Re Governed

It's . Terrible Doom to Re Governed
 to Death, Says Wadsworth.
 CHAUTAUQUA, N. T., July 30.-J w. Wadsworth, Jr, speaker of the New York state assembly, delivered an address in the amphitheater on the topic "The Relation of Politics to Social Unrest" MT. Wadsworth said in recent years a vast change had taken place in political conditions and more especially in political methods The people themselves have brought this about, demanding that the gov ernment be clean and efficient and that political organizations be the same.
 MT. Wadsworth held that party or ganizations and political leaders were necessary and no settled policy of gov ernment could be carried out without them.
 The existence of this unrest, Mir. Wadsworth held, could not be pre- vented. We must recognize it, meet it and cure it" said he. Legislation is not complete remedy by any means. The thoughtless agitator seems to think that laws, laws, noth- ing but laws, will cure every evil, and so we grind them out by the hun dreds every year. Pretty soon a re- action will set in, and we will hear the complaining cry, It's a terrible death to be governed to death.'
 ''In my judgment we have laws enough. We must call into play the homely Christian attributes, generosity and consideration as between man and man, charity within reason, forbear- anee in word and deed A little more content should be preached and lit tie less discontent Education must be fostered and allowed to percoiate every darkened corner"

CHINA BUYING
FEWER AMERICAN
COTTON GOODS

Washington, Jan. u.-That American
imporlations OF cotton goods into China
suffered heavy falling off during the
year just closed, Ia asserted in a state
ment issued today by the bureau OF sta
tistics of the department OF commerce and
labor. This reduction, however. ID gen.
eral and not aimed exclusively at this
country. The reason for this decline In
Chinas importations of cotton products
is due, II Is explained, to the fact that
China bought more OF these goods than
she could consume one year ago.
1t is shown that China purchased about
S14, 100000 worth less Of cotton goods for
the IL months ending with November last
than during a corresponding period In
1906. American importations into China, IL
months I'm 1906 aggregated $31. 900 coo and In
the same period during the past year they
amounted to only sl7Ooo,o00.
The four principal classes OF cotton
goods which China has been accustomed
10 draw from the United States in any
considerable quantities are cotton sheet
ings. shirtingr. drills and jeans. For the
first nine months OF the past year Ameri-
can expectations OF sheetlngs into China
were 4. 80, 74I pieces: OF drills 1,sS0.236, of
jeans 212. $50 and Of shirtlngs 23o,145. MAX
ing a total Of 6ss7.5 pieces. as compared
with p.S52.OS7 IN 1875, showing reduction
OF 26 per cent
Kerosene oil. the second article in Inn
portance OF the American export trade 10
China, also shows a marked decline for
the last year. During II months In 1905.
our export trade in that product amount
ed 20 n, 900 gallons while In n like pc
riod I'm the past year, the exports to China
had fallen to only about 100000.
