THE SHIP OF LOVE
BY EMMA RoDEMEYER WATT

Every morning the ship of love
 Sails from the port of the heart Bearing its cargoes of precious goods, To take to some distant mart. And at night when the ship returns,
 What does it bring to you? Whate'e CT twas laden with at morn,
 So we should strive to be true Should send out only what is good,
 And scatter sunshine along The nighttime then will wait back to u, Our ships all laden with song.

Ing utensils may not be a proof that more people thansever before are drink ing water, but there are not lacking indications that such is the case. Take the thriving little Connecticut city of Danbury as an example. Danbury used to enjoy the reputation of being ''hot old town," viewed from the standpoint of liquor drinking. Today, while it is not altogether Ion the water wagon" Danbury has become, in a very large degree, waterbury. Danburians are not only drinking more water than they used to, but are actually buying their drinking water. and paying for it.
 There are no less than fourteen differ ent concerns selling spring waters in Danbury - retailing It from house to house and from factory to factory, and a significant feature of this water indus try is, that the water merchant who IS doing the largest business In that line was formerly foremost saloon keeper and wholesale beer agent of the city. In the beer business he event broke" but in the water business he is prospering and getting rich.
 Another Danbury saloon-kseper has fallen in line, and sells both beer and water, and reports that his beer trade is falling off while his water trade IS growing. Milkmen, ice men, grocery men and restaurant keepers are whole sailing spring waters-each protesting to handle purer and better water than his competitors. And all these water mer- chants have gone into the business within the space of three years.
 This proof that people want their own individual water supply, while the crusade is on for individual drinking cups, indicates that the hygienic move ment is making progress, and even the Connecticut legislature will sooner or later have to take notice.

LITTLE NEGRO
BOYSARRESTED
PLAYING BALL
FIVE PLEADED GUILTY IN THE
CRIMINAL COURT, WHICH &C.
cAsIoNS SOME REMARKS BY
JUDGE WOLFE, PRESIDING DUR
ING ILLNESS OF JUDGE BEoes.


Five little negro boys, who were
tossing a ball about on an empty lot
in the city Sunday, were arrested by a
deputy sheriff and taken to the county
jail OF course they plealed guilty,
and were taken before Judge Wolfe,
who is presiding at this term Of the
criminal court during the illness of
Judge Beggs.
When the five little negroes were
arraigned for sentence Judge Wolfe
said that it was a violation of the law
and he imposed a fine Of 81 on each.
But the act of the officer in looking
up the little negroes and making the
arrest caused some comment by the
court.
Il think If the sheriff would keep his
eyes OPEN" said the court, ''he might
find some white boys also playing ball
on Sunday"
Later Judge Wolfe, when asked by a
Journal reporter as to his remarks,
said that these little negroes had no
organized team nor no uniforms. Be-
sides, he said, the matter of children
playing ball is not for the courts to
handle, but more for parents and Sun
day school teachers.

something to do with bringing on the
lockjaw. His jaws became locked

steadily worse until last night, when
the end came.

er the vote by which the house on the
previous day refused, on reconsidera-
ton, to pass the bill (No. 20S) entitled
"An act making appropriations for the
Improvement of certain harbors and
rivers" which had been returned with
the objections Of the president
The speaker decided that inasmuch
as the vote now proposed to be re-
considered was taken in a manner ex-
pressly provided for by the constitu-
ton Of the United States, and having
been thus taken, the decision must be
considered final, and no motion to re-
consider was in order.
From this decision Hon. John Quincy
Adams, of Massachusetts, then a mem
Der OF the house Of representatives, ap-
realed, and gave his reasons for the
appeal
He said the constitution provided
that the bill should be reconsidered
with the presidents objection. Recon-
sideration implied elaboration. But
the vote had been taken under the
operation of the previous question,
which allowed no elaboration. There
fore the provision Of the constitution
had been violated.
Inc speaker NIl0 f1Ou JOnn w.
Jones) replying, asked how it was
that a motion to reconsider was ever
entertained? It was only in virtue of
the rules Of the house The bill was
PASSED some days ago, and 1t was no
sooner passed than motion was made
70 reconsider 1t. That motion was re-
ietced: all power under the rule was
exhausted. Had 1t ever been heard of
that a motion to reconsider, being
once rejected, could be renewed? There
was, however, a power higher than the
rules which provided that whenever
a bill was returned by the president
of the United States with objections it
was the duty Of the house to recon
slider it. Without that provision of
the constitution the house could never
again have touched the bill; and the
requirement of the constitution having
been complied with, there was no pow
er In the house to touch the subject
again. Messrs. Thomas H Bayly and
George C. Dromgoole, Of Virginia, re-
piled to the point made by Mr.. Adams,
Mr.. Dromgoole contending that Mr.
Adams had COMPOUNDED discussion with
consideration.
After debate the chair was sustained
by the vote.

Yesterday this jolly party of seven
spent the day on fishing trip across
the bay and crossed over to the gulf
and enjoyed a refreshing dip in the
surf. This was the firts time some Of
the Tennesseeans had ever seen the
gulf and IT was a rare treat to them.
During the afternoon the party
caught some eighty nice fish and last
night had q spread prepared in one Of
the local cafes and some OF their
friends there to dine with them. The
day was greatly enjoyed by all of
them and they were feeling spick and
span last night, although several were
badly sunburned from being in the
sun all day.
The insurgents are still determined
to carry their point and express a
willingness to continue in Pensacola
until they are called back to Tennessee
by a special session.
I'VE are sorry we did not come down
here at first" said one Of the new ar
rivals birmingham is all right for a
few days, but it is tiresome to stay
there without anything to do. In Pen
saco1a it is different. We can amuse
ourselves In many ways and believe
that our health will be greatly benefit
ed by our visit here"
The Late arrivals say that they ex
poet a majority of the thirty-four to
be here in a few days. In the mean
time they are making many friends in
this city and are enjoying every min
ute Of their visit.

SCHOOL BOOK BILLS PRINTED.
Next Monday will be a big day in
the house. On that all the school book
bills will be considered. Mr.. Mac
Williams moved this morning that all
the bills should be printed and dis
tribUted. There are three bills re-
ported unfavorably by the committee,
the Terrell bill, which received a IA
Vorable report, and the senate bill by
Mr.. Cone which passed the senate by a
good safe majority. 1t is barely posi-
bic, but hardly more than that, that a
compromise will be reached between
the authors of the Cone and Terrell
bills, but each believes in the merits
of his measure and thinks 1t should
stand. Yet both know how difficult ii

that the bills will be fought out or
