ECCENTRIC blanche.
Why the Famous Critics Hands Were
Still Soiled After a Bath

\ correspondent of the Boston Her
aid says that a remark attributed to
the late Sully Prudhomme was made
originally by the famous and eccentric
literary and dramatic critic, Gustave
blanche. who died in Paris in Septem-
Der, 1857. For long time it was
thought that he slept in the public
streets. and he himself took pleasure
in giving credit to this report.
Where are you lodging?' some one
asked him
81 don't LODGE" he replied; 81 perch"
"And whereof
Champs Elysees, third tree to the
right"
Another anecdote Of blanche is that;
being once invited to dine with cele-
brated actress, Annias or Nine. Doryal,
he arrived before the company.
My goodness, Planche," cried the
hostess, what a figure you cut! Go
take bath, l beg. Here is ticket
He returned in an hours time as
clean as when he set out. You I'M
happy man, you have not taken the
bath!"
"By my faith, have!"
"Look at your hands,
"Ah, that is because l had book
while in the water"

Moral Idiots.

A good many people still hold the no.
ton that all persons are equally good
by nature and might be equally good
actually had they but the will to be SO.
They fail to see that men are born with
all degrees of moral capacities and in
capacities and some of them wholly
lacking in that regard. just as they are
born with all degrees of intellectual en-
dowment and some of them with none
whatever. A man may be an idiot
morally as we'll as Intellectually

is resurrection now from the miser-
able sinner.
''Tu be risen with Christ can be
possible only when we seek those
things that are above" We find two
realms everywhere the higher and
the lower. To the COW or log the
coming of spring means satisfaction
for the appetite So too. for some
men. To others it means music in
the rustling of leaves. the ripping of
the brook. To the Christian it ought
to mean God. In art we have the
rude sketches in the'lower. and the
masterpiece in the higher.
In music. the ragtime of the world.
and the melodies. and harmonies of
Motzart, Hanuel and Wagner. In
sculpture, the mud figures and the
statue the product of the master
stroke. In literature. the dime novel.

education. the A.. B. C. and the wealth
of knowledge. In civilization. the
dark past and the glorious present
Twentieth century civilization. Ev-
erywhere the higher and lower. So
to in Christian experience. the first or
lower the consciousness of forgiven
sin, a complete pardon; but in the
higher sphere. Christian joy and a
growth in grace and knowledge of
Jesus Christ. Too many Christians
are in different and apparently I'M
concerned about these higher things.
Christianity is resurrecting power.
The Christian should rise. They
should seek those things that are
above. In all other spheres the
search is earnest. sincere and cease
less. Why should the Christian be
the exception when the glories posi-
BILE are far greater than in any other
realm?
In closing the preacher plead with
his audience that while we rejoiced
in the great Easter victory of Christ
as a past event. making certain also
for them the glorious prospect of the
future. to rise with Christ now in
seeking those things which are above.
But especially while at first it
might seem that for the unconverted
the Eastertide had no message. to
them came the sweetest news that it
is possible for them now to rise from
the grave of past sins. to throw off
the grave clothes. to be at Christ S
command loosed and let go. for Christ
had died on Calvar,' ) cruel cross and
thus rolled away the stone that at
His command they might come forth
and rise to newness of life.
In the evening the services were
held in the Presbyterian church. The
choir rendered the beautiful and i'm
pressive cantata Easter Praise. =

cellent and pleasing way in which the
program was rendered. Mrs. Frienc

Beet Contracts Out.

The contractors are out this
week for next years beet crop.
The following in regard to prices
and prospective increase in acre
age is from the Grand Junction
News:
The Western Sugar and Land
company will send out their field
men early this week with the
beet contracts for the growers.
These are practically the same
as those which were used last
year, that is, S5 per ton for the
beets and rs cents per acre for
planting. Owing to the good
feeling existing between the
company and its growers it is
more than likely that the acre
age will be greatly increased. 1t
is thought that all of last years
growers will again sign the con-
tracts. The growers feel that
the company has acted frankly
and fair with them and there
has been no cause for hard feel
ing between them. The con-
tracts have been printed and the
field men of the company will
leave today or tomorrow. The
prospects of the company were
never brighter and there is little
doubt but that the local factory
will show a large increase in out
put in 1908 over 1907. The West
ern Sugar and Land company is
one of the most important indus
tries in Grand Junction and fur
nishes employment to 1S0 men
in this city during the factory
season. The relations of the
factory and its employees and
growers have always been the
very best and there is no reason
why 1908 should be an exception
to the rule.

A DEFENSE
OF THE
JURY
IBy Associated Press. 1


Chicago. June 5.-A remarkable
endorsement of the verdict of the
jury which acquitted w. d. Hay
wood of completely in the murder of
Ex-Governor Steunenberg was made
last night by Judge William H. Sea
man of the United States circuit
court of appeals.
In an address before the gradual
ing class of the Chicago-Kent Col
lege of Law Judge Seaman cited the.
Haywood case as one of the most
striking proofs of the contention,
that American juries can weigh the
evidence of a case without being
swayed by public opinion.
when the Haywood case was
tried" he said, "the whole country
was aflame with popular clamor-
The people and the high officials de-
manded Haywood's punishment, and
demanded it with a. voice that no
jury could have failed to hear. A
verdict was rendered, in the face of
public passion and demand, that was
absolutely Just. And 1t was re-
markable vindication of the jury sys-
TEN of America. Whether or not
the defendant was guilty will never
be absolutely known, but 1t is clear
that he was not proven guilty under
the law, and the Haywood jury, IN
influenced by public clamor, stated
this fact fearlessly."

WINNER OF
FIGHT
(By Associated Press. }

Milwaukee, Wis. June 5.-Stan-
ley Ketchell of Grand Rapids, Mich,
was given the decision over Billy
Papke of Kewanee, H., at the end
of fast and furious ten-round bout
before the Milwaukee Boxing Club
at the Hippodrome building last
night before a crowd estimated at
5000 persons.
The contest was a terrific affair
from the tap of the gong to the fin
ish. with the exception of the time
during which the men were engaged
in clinching.
Time and again Ketchell forced
his man to the ropes with his fur
Iious onslaughts of rights and lefts
to the head and body. Ketchell was
on top of his man from gong to gong
without ever giving him moments
rest except when they were in the
clinches.
Ketchell appealed to the referee
to break the clinches repeatedly.
: Only in the eighth round did Pap
Ike have an. even break.
Ketchell in the first round took
considerable steam out of his man
by landing a terrific right to the
Jaw, sending him to his knees. The
Grand Rapids boy worked the right
and left shift to good advantage and
bewildered Papke in his attempts to
get at him.
