Failure to Raise Hand While TAX
ing Oath.

A school teacher was convicted
of perjury for having falsely made
a statement under oath to procure
a license to marry a feminine pu-
pill under the requisite age. In
State V. Day, 121 Northwestern
Reporter, Gil, his contention was
that, although he had gone
through the other ceremony usual
in taking an oath, he had neglect
ed to raise his hand. It having
been convincingly shown that ap-
pellant knew the girl was less than
Is the fact that he knew the ap-
plication contained the statement
that she was over that age, and
the fact that he signed it DELHI
erately knowing it to contain such
statement, dispensed with an ex-
act following of the statutory form
of oath. The Minnesota Supreme
Court decided that, the particular
formality never having been re-
garded as important, the essential
thing was that the party taking
the oath should go through some
declaration or formality before the
officer which indicates to him that
the appellant consciously asserts
or affirms the truth of the fact to
which he testifies. Conviction af-

WISE AND OTHERWISE

The city council of Milwaukee,
Wis, is investigating the feast
bility of providing gutter shower
baths for the youngsters in the
crowded districts. At very little
expense inch pipes could be ex-
tended above the fire hydrants
and sufficiently above the street
to give the youngsters a chance
to get themselves and their cloth
ing gloriously soaked.
The Sunset Telephone Com
pany of Los Angeles, Cal, is CIV
ing it's central operators voice
culture under the belief that,
sweetness of voice and refusing
to argue or retort, when patrons
become excited, will improve the
service. Time will tell if the
plan be a good one, but it does
not make much difference to
the busy man what kind of a
voice says: "Your party does
not answer" or There's no one
on the line.
1t is practically assured that
the art of swimming is to be a
part of the curriculum offered to
boys attending the Chicago pub
lie schools. It is expected that
the girls of the public schools
will be offered the same advant-
age later. There is no question
but that the step will broaden
and better public school work,
and every one must admit that,
swimming is a most valuable adj
junct to any persons physical ac-
complishments. The most pro-
gressive say, it is but a question
of short time when swimming
tanks will be installed in all high
school buildings.
A smaller proportion of children
go to the public schools now than
went ten years ago. The num-
Der of students in college has in
creasd. This is doubtless due to
the high cost of living which
takes the poorer children from
the public schools and puts them
to work. The pinch is not felt
by the Well-to-do, who in increas-
ing numbers send their young
folks to institutions of higher
learning.
Judging from what the Ma

general, or the secretary of the
navy, dresses with the most ele-
gance and style or in other
words blows in the most money
on his back. 1t is strangely out
of keeping with the ideas which
prompted early American immi-
grafton to read that the garb of
a member of President Taft's
cabinet may be called distinctive
ly the latest fashion plate from
New York. Yet a man has the

MUCH COTTON BURNED.

stroyed at Navasota.

Navasota, Texas, Oct. 3.-As neal
as can be figured, about four hundred
and fifty bales of cotton were lost by
fire last night when McNairs ware.
house was burned to the ground.
The alarm was sounded at II o'clock,
and Notwithstanding the fire com
pany and citizens responded prompt.
ly, the building was doomed by the
time the first stream was thrown up
on it. The boys fought it four or
five hours before the flames were
successfully controlled How the fire
originated is another one of those
mysteries. The first flame seemed to
come from the middle of the building
and in very short while the roof
fell in. The building being isolated
is all that saved the west portion Of
the city. The wind was high, sending
sparks several hundred yards in the
air. The loss will fall exceedingly
heavy upon several parties who had
no insurance whatever, one man hav-
ing thirty odd bales. The marine
companies carried insurance on one
hundred and four bales and local in
surance firms carried about $1,000.
This leaves about $4,000 worth of
cotton unprotected.

THE COMET AGAIN
IL Was Observed by Many Frederieks-
burgers Saturday Night.

For nearly two hours Saturday even
ing Halley's comet was visible 20 the
naked eye in the west. IL appeared
above the star Aldebaran.
Its appearance was entirely different
from that presented while il was in the
east The head is larger. while the
tail was hardly visible until nearly time
for the wanderer of the skies to set.
The comet looked at first as though
il had gathered the tail around the
head. IL looked more like an electric
light in a fog than u real. genuine
comet
Many fredericksburg people saw the
wonder.
The thought that the thing of mys-
terry, travelling at a rate of many miles
every time the clock ticks, journeys
probably a regular course, returning TO
view only every seventy-five years, is
awe-inspiring. What fearful lengths
of space il must traverse, what millions
of other worlds like ours-indeed, what
myriads Of solar systems like ours il
must see, far surpasses comprehension.
Since Haley discovered the fact of its
regular schedule scientist have regarded
II as one of the most interesting objects
in the skies, and the very fact that for
the past few years they have predicted
its appearance and have been preparing
for observation, shows the accuracy Of
their knowledge.

fredericksburg. Va. May %. 1910
To The Free Lance:
| read with great regret that the
bids opened by the committee for the
building Of the roads have had TO be
regranted, presumably ON account Of
the high estimates. II seems TO me
that il would be very feasible to obtain
first-class road engineer. who would
not work for his own profit. but simply
for his salary. and this would have the
great advantage of doing away with
the danger that always exists in con-
tract work, trying to skin the work for
the extra profit to be obtained. The
work, therefore, released from that
danger could be completed at least 10
per cent cheaper, and then a few miles
more added TO the good roads and we
could then have the machinery still
on hand to gradually increase our good
mileage year by year at little expense.
The year is going on and nothing so
far begun, and, therefore, | trust that
any steps taken will be done with some
dispatch. The matter. of course, is in
good hands. but the suggestion of get
ting our own machinery. plus first
class road engine, il one ! think well
worth serious consideration.
Yours faithfully,
K. Conroy Vance.
