that the flame of love mounts the altar no
more and the turnpike to perdition is
paved with the ashes of loves that are
dead. Since the dawn of civilization virtue
has constituted woman's chief charm and
it is in this respect that she has risen i'm
mensely superior to the sterner sex. If

QUESTION OF PER CAPITA.

Eleven dollars per capita for chewing
guui
Seven-fifty per capita for spreading
Christian light in foreign lands.
These are marked "Exhitit A in dis
play recently made by the Presbyterian
church as a means of illustrating the dis
regard of the people of America for mission
work and their greater regard for the
tempting wax with which so many of our
females keep their jaws in motion.
We do not complain, but the church does.
The Blade feels that the eleven dollars
has been spent to better advantage than
the seven and a half. The former has.
at least, found employment for a large
number OF men, women and children and
helped to keep up the commercial and in.
dustrial markets. The latter has gone 10
a few cheerful idiots who fancy themselves
select or the Lord to carry plague
tainted religion to peoples possessing a SUI
perlor creed and superior morality. We
DO not intimate that the eleven dollars
could not have been put to a much better
use BUT we give the chewing gum the
preference over the missionary contri-
buttons. Our contention is that the wo
men should be given a chance and If they
prefer quid OF wax to dropping their
nickels in the mission box they have
right to their own sweet way and even
a preacher has no just ground for COM

ceeding. AS preacher should, and as some
preachers do this man advocates the aboli-

press dispatches in the following graphic
manner
Il wish the streets would run with blood
in this struggle. I'd like to go out with
a gun myself. Nine out of ten preachers are
moral towards on the prohibition question.
they hold the key to the situation. They
talk prohibition, but when it comes to a
question of salary, or displeasing a congre-
cation, they fater and submit"
Och! Wurra, wurra! Somebody head us
OH or we are sliding hell bent to destruc-
ton! Won't somebody call in the police?
Streets run with blood and that is what
this servant of the Prince of Peace would
like to see. Kill somebody! Shoot them
down like untagged dogs in pound until
they drown in crimson flood. Beautiful
religion Gentle Christ! Sweet conservator
of public morals, DESTROYS OF going out
with a gum and well loaded, we must
naturally suppose, is an indication that this
servant of the dear Lord wants to kill
somebody himself. And is not this the
Christian spirit? Has not this been the at
titude of the church for centuries? Have
not streets run with blood following the
sword held by fanatical worshippers of the
Christian faith? What a fearful price to
pay for the establishment of fad, And
to cap the climax the same dispatches
state that fifty women and four men who
were present to listen to such a diatrbe
against law and order actually endorsed
by an abundance of "Awmen' Would not
this further fact show the degrading power
of religion upon the minds of women when
it can bring them to such pass that they

BLUE GRASS BLADE.

ley, by modern society, for the killing OF
Arthur Brown, the former Senator from
Utah. on the ground that he had ruined
her lite and mad refused to keep his prom
Use made to her that he would give a name
to her two boys, of which the deceased
was the father. 1t is this very treatment
that has prevented many another woman
from following the same method of exact
ing redress for alleged wrongs done by
man. AS a rule modest woman who may
nave sinned through love will not tell her
troubles 10 a policeman but broods over
them in quiet solitude. 1t was Solomon,
so we are told, who wrote that pride
goeth before destruction" but we would
amend that saying, without quarreling with
the shade of solomon, by suggesting that
pride itself is the sheet anchor of human
morality, the dynamics of noble deeds.

resolve to die only in the last ditch When
pride is crushed out of man or woman
by a load of rags and wretchedness, as is
now reported to be the case with Mrs,
Bradley, damnation is even knocking at
the door.
AND yet there is one other view we might
take. The Brown-Bradley liason was, it APP
pears, mutual contract Both parties
went into the affair with their eyes wide
open. They were both of mature mind and
both had enjoyed marital experiences.
Both knew. NO such contract could have
been entered into without both parties con-
senting, agreeing thereto. In such matters
Mrs. Bradley was as wise as Mr. Brown.
The latter know no more than the former.
and neither knew less than the other.
True, false promise might have been made
md in the end the consideration mutually
agreed upon may have failed This was a
violation of the contract and it was for
this violation that Mrs. Bradley killed her
paraniour. Such a contract could not have
been enforced by the courts as il was Il.

this when she became conserving party
In the abstract she is not entitled to any
particular sympathy, but we do pity her
forlorn condition, the sad fate especially
in view OF the fact that thousands of her
sisters have been equally as guilty but
have been fortunate enough to escape
notoriety and detection.
All this brings us to the issue of the
unwritten law which seems to have taken
such firm hold upon our criminal juris-
prudence. If the woman in the case be young,
inexperienced, or weak minded, or victim

play its part, but if the woman be of ma

WASHINGTON, Des. Ex-senator
Knox has been offered and accepted
the position of secretary of state -
cording to authenticated rumors. Bur-

senatorship fight in Ohio.
Knox is said to have accepted the

sired to continue his service in the
senate. His term expires in 1911 and
IL he accepts he probably will resign
