Judge Grain Of the Court of Gen
eral Sessions has just held a recep
ton more worthy of note than any
ball. banquet or other high function
OF the season. 1t was held In his
courtroom at night. In RESPONSE to
It's summons came 1T men and WON
en-. some old. some young every one
OF whom was victor over some form
OF temptation; an example Of what
human faith can do to help human
weakness to redeem itself and bs
strong.
Each of the company had been CON
victed OF some first ofense against
the law. and each had been permitted
to go out on parole OF future good
behavior. Each had kept the faith.
The word was as good as a bond
Those who might have gone down in
the struggle had found a way to rise
and fight again. They were all able
to report good work done and bright
prospects ahead.
Time was when no one was trusted
on his word save men of high degree
Fidelity to parole was deemed
princely virtue. Perhaps It is. There
was nothing In Judge Grains recep
ton to disprove it.

New Process Of Stamina Glass

The art of co'oring glass has been
lost and rebound, jealousy guarded
and maliciously stolen so many times
in the history of civilization that Il
seems almost impossible TO say any
thing new on g'ass staining Yet
process has been discovered for ma
king the stained glass used In windows
which is a departure from anything
known at the present time. What the
Venetians and the Phoenicians knew
Of 1t we cannot tell. e.,
The glass first receives its design In
mineral colors and the whole Is then
fired in heat so intense that the col
oring matter and the glass are indis
solubly fused. The most at ,ctivs
feature Of this method is that lie sur
face acquires a peculiar pebbled char
acter In the heat, so that when the
glass is In place the lights are delight
fully soft and mellow.
In making large window in many
shades each panel is separately mould
ed and bent and the sections are as
semoled In metal frame.

The LEAGUE Of Polltenes..

The League Of Politeness has been
formed in Berlin. 1t aims at inculcat-
Ing better manners among the people
OF Berlin. It was founded upon the
initiative OF Fraulein Cecelie Meyer,
who was inspired by an existing or.
ganization In Rome. In Difference to
the parent organization the Berlin
league has chosen the Italian motto,
PRO gentilezZa." This will be en-
blazoned upon an attractive little
medal worn where Germans are ac-
customed to wear the insignia of or.
ders. The idea is that a GLANCE at
the "talisman" will annihilate any In
clination to indulge in bad temper or
discourteous language. ANY polite
person" is eligible for membership.

MosIem Tradltiona

Ramadan is the month exalted by
Moslems above all others. In that
month the Notwithstanding to Mos
lem tradition--was brought down by
Gabriel from heaven and delivered to
men in small sections. In that month.
Mohammed was accustomed to retire
from Mecca to the cave of Hira, for
prayer and meditation. In that month
Abraham, Moses and other prophets
received their divine revelations. In
that month the doors of heaven are
always open. the passages to hell are
shut. and the devils are chained" So
run the traditions.-The Christian

Contented with YOUR lot
And with the optimists agree
That troubles soon forgot.

Dennison Alleges officials Are
Guilty of Graft and Corruption
MAY SEEK LEGISLATIVE PROBE
Dubuque Man Demands That the
State Insurance Department In.
Vestisate the Charges He
Has Filed.

Des Moines, Dec. 23.-John d. d.
ison, Jr., Of Dubuque has filed with
the state insurance department
charges of graft and corruption
against the head orfic ais of the Mod
ern WCodmen of America and de-
manded an investigation, by the state
Insurance department, of the financi-
al affairs OF the lodge.
The charges filed with the Iowa de-
partment are similar in character to
those filed with the Illinois depart
ment and with the Michigan depart
ment.
In his statement to the insurance
department he charges Thomas H..
Duffy, of Dubuque, his former law
partner, with reporting excess mile
age and charging excess prices for
his work as national lecturer; he
charges that the board of directors
in 1904 accepted a forged bond by
Frank Croker without first ascertain.
ing whether the names of the sure
ties were genuine or not, that Crock
er, plot TO his suicide, had deposits
in his bank at Charlton increased to
$350,000, although the capital stock
of the bank was only $4,000.
He threatens to ask a legislative
investigation if the department refus.
es to make the Investigation.
The names of Des Moines Wood.
men are brought into the charges,
but as the department refuses to give
out the names of the Iowa people un-
til they have ascertained whether
they will call these people before
the state insurance commissioner, 1t
is impossible to get the names of the
Des Moines Woodmen who are in
volved in the Denison charges at
present.
