things have happened and perhaps as
wonderful as any of the great inven-

The Introduction of the fly catechism
into the schools OF all the large cities
of the country marks one change and
reminds some of the older people of
the sentimental nonsense that was
dished up to the children of quarter
of a century ago.
The teachings of the school children
of a generation ago was vastly diff
ferent. In third reader in use at
that time gentleness and the value of
life were taught, through a pathetic
little story in which there was a wick

of the savage tendencies of what was
the moving force of life at the dawn
of history when 1t was kill get kill

upon the window pane and with the
savage instinct uppermost the embryo

Mr.. Gronna accordingly voted for
the bill just as Mr.. Hanna, Senator
johnson and Senator McCumber did,
although some of its provisions we're
doubtless Objectionable to them. (Mr.
Gronna's vote for the bill is recorded
on page 1901 of the Congressional
Record.)
AS to whether each act and vote
of Senator McCumber and the other
members of the delegation on every
question or on the bill as whole
were the wisest and most advan-
tageous, no one is competent to de-
eide fairly or intelligently without
full knowledge of all the facts and
circumstances upon which Senator
McCumber and his associates had to
base their judgment. Even with that
knowledge, able and honest men
might differ, or even change their
opinions. Perhaps that is the reason
Mr.. Gronna finally changed his atti-

before, when Mr.. Gronna voted for

AN ECLIPSE and
THE COMET
TWO FAMOUS CELESTIAL SPEC
TACLEs ON THE SAME NIGHT.
A RARE OCCURRENCE

Saturday night the much talked Of
comet hove in sight. 1t appeared
high up over the western horizon and
was seen by hundreds of people in
this city. 1t appeared first as dim
star surrounded by light thin film
of mist. Later in the evening a
semblance, but rather indistinct, Of
tail floating upward and to the left
of the comet could be discerned.
It was about the same appearance
Saturday night, as Sunday night.
The comet is fast traveller and
by eleven o'clock had totally disap-
peared. 1t was first visible Sunday
evening about 9:15. AS spectacu-
lar event it is disappointment.
Many persons have formed an idea
that it would be brilliant sight in
the heavens whenever it became WIS.,
ible and would have a bright shining
head or nucleus followed by long
brilliantly colored tail.
The comet was seen in other parts
of the country Saturday night. In
New York an observer described it
as follows:
