Daniel w. Bond OF the superior court

sidered one OF the chief arguments
against the Christian Endeavorers and
the Y. Al C. A. Boys hesitate to en-
ter q place where they are to be pes
tered on religious matters No boz
likes TO be preached to. Many boys
never go inside 4 church In this
they differ from the last generations.
There would be less crime If church
going was encouraged, but don'J
favor II as a compulsory measure.

eAYNoR's GOOD WORK.

/ Mayor Gaynor of New York appears
to be the type of public official who
puts his aggressive theories into prac-
tice and finds that they work out adj
nlirably -despite the criticism heaped
upon him by his enemies.
Since he took Office the first of the
year he has created more consterna-
ton among the grafters of New york
city than, perhaps, any other ten men
could have done. He has gone after
abuses in public affairs in way that
have left no doubt as to his intention
OF pushing them to the very limit Of
investigation In order to place the
blame and the punishment where they
belong.
Mayor Gaynor has entered upon a
warfare against the meanest sort Of
grafter-the miserable being who
plays upon the credulity Of the man
who would become an American citi-
zen. He has found that certain
species OF human creature haunts the
New York federal building. holding up
applicants for naturalization papers to
the tune OF anywhere from SIS to $50.

BRAVE LITTLE WOMAN.

No matter whether you believe
Morse, the "tce king" is innocent on
guilty-nO matter whether you think
he should be breathing free air or
should rot in the federal prison-there
Is no one whose sympathy will not be
aroused by the loyalty and devotion of
the brave little woman he is fortunate
to have for a wife. Commenting on
the activity of Mrs. Morse in her hus-
bands behalf, The Hartford Post
echoes popular sentiment in the fol-
lowing:
In big house in New York City
house that might have been the
envy of kings in a former age, an
auctioneer and his ass stants have
been going carefully over things and
listing them preparatory to putting
them up to public sale. There are
treasures there, gathered from the four
corners of the world. Many of them
are the little things man and woman
gathered through their mutual tastes.
Many of them speak to the heart the
TO have a trial comparable with the
greatest romances Of literature or
history
The man and woman who brought all
these things together and who made
the house homo thing which the
highest palace cannot be without the
essential spirit of mutual love and con-
fidence, are not there. The husband
Is behind prison bars, through what
looks to be one of the greatest mis-
carriages of justice of the age and the
wife Is working heroically to get him
out of his living tomb. Unable to stand
the sight of strangers fumbling and
putting a money price on the things
they both loved, and that represented
so much to them, she hurried away to
his prison to give him what hope and
comfort she could.
There is something in the courage
Gus attitude of this little woman that
would reach the sympathy Of any who
stops to consider her work, no matter
what their previous belief as to the
guilt OF the man she is trying to free
may have been, and that would at
