DEFIED THE JUDGE.

A Fine for Voting That Susan B. An
thOny Never Paid.
1T has been som any years ago
that most people have forgotten that
the late Susan B. Anthony was fined
500 or years Imprisonment for
having dared to vote for General
Grant for president" said Chica-
go Judge.
miss Anthony was as brave as she
was Intellectual and asked to be adj
lowed to speak word in her own be-
half. Permission being given, she told
the court of the struggle she had in
keeping a little newspaper going
from which she made her living.
Your honor, she said, holding up
her right hand, i am due my credi-
tors not less than $1,000. This
money expect to live to pay, but /
am willing this arm shall wither
from my body before pay the 500
you have SO unjustly assessed against
me-
"The court realized the deep SER
iousness of Miss Anthony's declara-.
ton, and though she could have been
ordered to jail for nonpayment of
the fine his honor did not have the
nerve to enforce the extreme penalty.
Miss Anthony liver for many years
after it's imposition. but the fine was
never paid. Baltimore American.

JAKE MULLER

4 We have all heard the poem about
Maud Muller. but the following is
about Maud's brother: Jake Muller
on summer day, raked the meadow
sweet with hay. The mule with which
he raked the hay was muckled down
with streaks Of gray. Jakes shirt was
hickory. his pants we're brown, with
patch on the place where he sat
down. He cussed in way that was
hard to see, for the mule went haw
when he said gee. A humble bee
nest In the meadow lay, where Jake
and the mule were raking hay. A
rake tooth ran through the BUNDLES
home, and the bees came out and be-
gan to roam in search OF a man that
summer day, who raked the meadow
Of clover hay. The bees swarmed
inside Muller's shirt, and quickened
the mule to lively squirt It was
tough on the mule and worse on
Jake, and still worse on the sulky
rake, for the mule turned loose in a
promiscuous way, and scattered 1t
over the new mown hay. Eek.

WASHING COAL.

The fueltesting plant Of the Unit
ed States Geological Survey at Dem
yer. Colo, one of the factors in the
conservation OF the coal supply OF
the country, will resume operations
the latter part of July. At this plant
the government is endeavoring to
obtain greater efficiency from the
Goals of the Rocky mountain fields
by washing and coking them. Many
Of the Goals of the West contain such
quantities of impurities-ash and
sulphur-that they are not of much
value for commercial use. 1t has
been the governments purpose to
wash the impurities out of these
Goals SO that they can be, utilized.
The success already obtained war
rants continuation of this work.
During the last fiscal year, ninety
tests Of Goals were made at the Dem
yer plant, resulting in many OF them
being decidedly improved.
or thirty-seven western Goals test
ed, at the Denver plant, all but three
produced good coke though q number
of them were considered as non-cok-
ing. The Importance of this Is seen
when the immensely Of the smelling
business of the west Is realized and
the therefore enormous demand for
good coke. Several of these Goals
without washing have failed to make
coke fit for metallurgical purposes
owing to the large amount OF sui
phur In them. Other Goals would
not even make steam without the
washing process.
1t is likely that the final results |
of these tests will add millions OF |
dollars to the fuel values of the west.
1t has already been shown that a
number of Goals that in the past have
not been mined because of their Inns
purities, can now be profitably util-
lied. This will extend the life of the
fuel supply and make possible vast
industrial enterprises in the west
that would not locate there had the
government not taken this step.
The lack Of knowledge Of the ma
ture of the Goals Of the west has
been its chief handicap to CONNER
cial development. With the finest
supply of bituminous and anthracite
in the world located In the eastern
part of the country, 1t has been felt
that the west, in some instances could
not compete in manufacturing The
results shown by the government
have done much to dispel this idea
and the west has been going forward
1t rapid rate. Still further develop
ments are expected upon the com
pletion of the tests this year. The
Denver plant is in charge of A. w.
Belden, assisted by G. r. Delamator.
A bulletin will soon be issued by the
geological survey on the work al
'eady accomplished at this plant.

A LIVING TRAGEDY"-RECTTED
IN FIVE ACTS.

| Spokane is In the throes of NOR
al spasm, that coming late as II doe
may yet result in saving many soul
and keeping pure the life of the ris
Ing young men and women of tina
lust ridden and sensuous city. Thi,
movement is the outgrowth of the
debauching of the two girls Spoken
of in this issue.
| At the First Methodist church In
that city Sunday night, a monster
demonstration was held at which
time DR.. H. J. Rasmus delivered a
sermon that every father and mother
can take home with them and con-
slider. 1t is applicable right here,
where children are running at large
on the streets till long into the night
and boys from to IA years and
upwards flock around slot machines
and blow in their nickles and dimes.
We quote the act as cited by the
Rev. Rasmus:
They tell me that the great TRACE
dies are written in Ave or six acts, .
was DR.. Rasmus' conclusion, so
Will give you the acts of the greatest
tragedy that was ever written.
Act THE first scene is home;
a careless father and careless
and Indifferent mother; an unre-
strained, hayward and wilful child.
The second scene on the streets of
the city, with electric lights blazing;
the sound Of the moving multitude;
the laughter of gay men and women;
and there alone that bit of hayward
ness on the streets at night.
Act again the streets with the
lights blazing as before. It is at a
later hour and there is lustful,
leering face peeping into the coun-
tenance of the child, speaking words
OF enticement. The young forms
turn and disappear into the darkness
Act ga den of vice; woman's
laughter loud in usefulness ringing
out on the night air; that child but
an hour ago SO pure, now is tainted
with sin.
Act "A cemetery; grave on
which no father or mother has ever
dropped tear of repentance; a
grave where many weeds are growing
but where there are no flowers.
Act 5-The shores of eternity,
with no light, no music, but where
the serpents of anguish coil forever
around a youthful heart. Despair Is
here; darkness is there---but can
not look more-ring the bell, and let |
he curtain fall. 1t is the end OF the
tragedy of lost soul!
Fathers and mothers, let us have |
10 more of those tragedies. but for
Gods sake keep your children at
lone in the night time. Take care
If them; make home so beautiful
hat when they are away they will be
lomesick; surround them by refined
md Christian Influences, and no
more of these dramas will be enacted
IN our streets"
"In the night" he said, "the great
aldron of iniquity begins to boil and
hubble and seethe and surge, and
he guardian angel that looks down
N this little babylon hidden in the
astnesses of the mountains sees a
pectacle that must make men and
,ngels blush with shame.
How frequently are the child
ragedies in our city--we see them
very night Of the year. II I want
d to be sure of the eternal destruc-
ion of child would give it free
un of the streets at nights; there
; no surer way. There are hundreds
ven thousands, of parents who think
heir sons and daughters know
othing of vice when they are reek-
ng with it."
