their action in closing their places OF

as Il should be. But few people oil i.

that it is the intention of the mana

~STOP MY PAPER"

The highest duty of an editor is to
battle with wrong. This, of course,
brings him in conflict with wrong do
ers and they are apt to show their
spite in various ways. It is quite
common for the thin skinned or
wounded to rush into the office and
shout "Stop my papern' This class
is pointedly shown up in the following
fashion: A certain man hit his toe
against pebble, and fell headlong to
the ground. He was vexed, and un-
der influence of anger and self-suf1i-.
cheney he kicked mother earth right
saueuy. With imper:urbeble gravity,
he looked to see the earth itself dis
solved and come to naughtI But the
earth remained, and only his poor
foot was injured in the encounter.
This is the way Of man. An article
in the newspaper touches him in
weak spot, and forthwith he sends to
stop his paper. With great compla-
cency he locks to see the crash, when
he finds he only hit his toe against
world that does not perpetually feel
the shock, anu injures no one but
himself.
No sensible editor e. poets to please
everybody. Such an editor lays no
claim to infallibility, and may at times
even fall into error. But an outspo-
ken, independent journal, aiming to
support the right and attack the
wrong, is such power for good IN
any community that well-balanced
minds will look over little faults in
view of the greater benefits conferred.
An editor who is afraid to speak out
ON public questions for fear of offend
ing somebody, may have an easy time
of it; but he will never amount to
much as leader of opinion. Thought
full people will generally honor inde'
pendence; and for every subscriber
lost in battling for the right he will
likely find two to take the place. This
is according to the law of compensa-
tion.-Ossining Republican.

As special feature for to-day, the
management Of the Pavilion has secured
the powerful Vitagraph picture, entitled
Jealousy" The picture is posed by
Miss Florence Turner, the well-known
vitagraph leading lady, and was made
with only one object in view, that OBJ
iect being to show the wonderful dra-
matte ability of this highly talented ae-
tress. The story told by the picture
is founded on the lines by William Con-
grove. Heaven has no rage like love to
hatred turned, Nor hell fury like a
woman spurned" The scene is harem.
The portrayal is of woman driven to
frenzy bv her cold -blooded discardment
bv the man to whom she has given
her passionate love, her flights Of dra-
matte vehemence, suppressed anger and
rage, when she finds herself supplanted
by another, are far beyond description.
Most emphatically this is a supreme ex-
hibition of histrionie excellence, that
challenges the greatest players at their
best.

Many who visited our farm while the
grain was ripening pronounced it the
most beautiful grain in field they
had ever seen.
This crop yielded 691 bushels on
ten acres under adverse conditions,
and the crop has been planted this
fall for the purpose of distributing
among farmers of the west. 1t is
said TO be the ideal crop for arid
farms. Prot Bufum pronounces 1t
better than oats for horses. IT viii
thus solve much OF the difficulty OF
dry farming in addition to furnishing
an ideal balancing ration with alt
alta, which is reasonable in cost
Professor Buffum expects to have
10000 bushels Of emmer for dis
tributiou through the west next
spring.
There are other experiments on the
Worland farm OF great interest. The
twenty-five varieties of alfalfa are
growing there Experiments are be-
ing made to improve wheat and OBJ

BOULDER FALLS AFTER

Only Signals of Trackmen Saw,
Freight Following in Chasm
Death GraZes Scores.

Salida, Colo, Dec 29.--Deatb in
horrible form narrowly missed the
passengers on a Denver & Rio
Grande train in Royal gorge last
night
The passengers on the rear Sleep
ers little realized how narrowly a
huge boulder missed them. 1t fell
from the top of the mountain just a
few seconds after the train had
passed
The trackwalker, George Bruno.
says the passenger was about a mile
from the hanging bridge in the gorgs
when he noticed huge rock topple
from the preeipice and fall to the
road below. He says the rock came
so near the rear coach that he
thought at first it had struck the
train.
Running forward, he came 10 the
spot and discovered the track TO be
broken.
Engineer Pinery of freight No, G.,
following the passenger, says the
gorge was as black as Egypt and he
would have run into the rock if it
had not been for the signals of the
trackwalker.
1t required three hours to remove
the rock and repair the track. A
block and tackle was used, togeth-
7r with the freight engine to remove
he huge boulder, which is estimated
at two tons. The loosening of the
rock is attributed to the mild win
ter weather

The Unexpected Truth

The minister was spending the af-
ternoon at the home of one of his
members. The father told his little
son to bring some apples from the
cellar. The child obeyed and in the
kitchen found an especially large red
one which had been brought up the
day before. so placed it on the dish
with the others.
When they were passed this was
the apple the minister took, and feel
Ing it so warm, remarked to his host
that the cellar must be very warm.
Did you not bring these apples
from the cellar, Ned?"
Yes, father. all but that one pas
tor has; it was in the kitchen"
"Why did you not tell me?" asked
the pastor.

gest one on the dish."-The Delin-
