The testimony brought out in tho

hall, where dance was in progress
on the night of Jan. 18TH The testi-
mony of the girl and the boy was con-
f1icting as to who accosted the other
first, but the court did not take this
into consideration, inasmuch as there
was other uncontroverted testimony
that Krider was guilty of the misde-
meanor. A torn fur. which the girl
said he had torn from her neck, was
brought by her into court as evidence.

from means and methods, the great
company of Christians, face to face
with pressing problems of the time,
ought not even to seem to be dumb
and impotent, paralyzed and past feel
ing. If they are rightly to face those
problems, they need a vision of the
opportunity, a widening of thought and
a 'uller measure of the enthusiasm of
humanity. The Churchs effort is not
to be something apart, in the rear OF
the battle, only for them that are sore
spent and wounded in the fight. It's
service ought to be that not merely
of the ambulance corps, but Of the
columns forward march. When it's

CHRISTIANITY
AND DEMOCRACY

The Democratic Ideal aud the Chris
tain Church" by Bishop Chauncey B.
Brewster, of Connecticut, in the March
number of The North American Re-
view, is an interesting article on a
very vital subject-the influence of the
Church. He observes in the course OF
the article;
There may surely be question whet-
her, in the financial support of church
es, there should not be appeal less to
commercial and selfish considerations
and more Christian motives of loyal
devotion, generosity and Sacrifice. In
fact, the pew system, as an adequate
means of support, has practically
broken Gown. Few are the parishes
where it has not to be supplemented
by other methods and by yearly ap-
peals to make up deficiency. On the
other hand, who can estimate how
many that system has kept from the
house of their Heavenly Father! In a
city church that is awake to it's mission
the appropriated pew, with its pro-
vision for comfortable and complacent
selfshness, is an anarchronsm, an OBJ
stacle surviving from the past. When
a new church is built, in place Of pews
put in chairs, and you have taken d
long step toward making the church
truly democratic. If it be really
question Of private pew versus people,
surely there will be no hesitation as

of floating ice and three or four very large icebergs lodged against the trestle work protecting the TOO water pipe. No notice was taken of them till a strong southeast wind started to blow on Friday and then things began to get lively around there. The bergs, it is estimated, would weigh from eight hundred to a thousand tons, and when She tide raised high enough to float them something had to go, and, of course, it was the pipe line and trestle. ln consequence the 700 and 24O mills have been on short rations for water during every low tide, for the break IS almost at low water mark. Had the bergs not been on the bottom when the wind was blowing so hard it is quite probable that the wharf would have suffered the same fate as did the pipe lines. Gangs of carpenters and pipe men have been very busy repairing the damage and miners have been bull doziug the bergs and reducing them to powder-in fact, to bear the blasting one would think that the "glory hole" was working again.
