AS TO STREET sPRlNKLINe.

Bryan has plenty of water, plenty of
mules and a new sprinkler, yet there
was not drop of water put on Main
street today, Notwithstanding the fact
it was one of the busiest days of the
year. The merchants, who are the
heaviest taxpayers, who subscribe lib.
orally to the Commercial Club, and to
everything else for the welfare of
Bryan, complained bitterly today of
the prevailing conditions. Their com.
plant was just too. With the facilities
we now have there is no reason on the
Lords living earth why Main street
should not be kept sprinkled We have
lived in the dirt, dust and filth here
ever since Bryan was started, but the
trouble has always been laid at the
door of the water company-the claim
being made there was no water for
sprinkling purposes, Now the city has
plenty of water of its own, but condi-
tions are but little, if any, better
This dust nuisance is simply terri
BILE and should be abated If such
thing is possible. 1t occurs to The
Eagle that If the sprinkler were start
ed at o'clock every morning, it could
have the dust well under control by
the time traffic on the street opened
up. Then by working during the day,
in and out among the teams the best
IL could, we believe the situation could
be almost, il not entirely, relieved.
The people want relief from the
dust. They are entitled to 1t and ought
to have it. With the present high
limit tax rate, and with the city own.
ing its own water plant, If we can't
have Main street sprinkled, we should
about face and try some other tactics.
This is another argument in favor
OF the commission or general manager
form Of city government.

tons. First, that we are incomplete /:
second, that We are complete in Christ.
There is not a single scriptural state
ment in all this book (the Bible) that
will gainsay these assertions. The
world would be incomplete If Jesus
had not come into it. Inspiration for
good deeds, the development of mind
and body is dependent upon the Christ.
The body itself would fail to come up
to its full development If it were not
for the teachings of Christ. The teach
ing that the body is the temple of the
Holy Spirit has been the great force
for development. The body is to be
used and given for higher things. Thus
the two ideas tend to develops first,
take care Of; second, give the body
for good Then constant action and
endeavor will bring its reward. Con-
slant progress will follow AS a great
reservoir when full is ready to run
over and refresh all around, so a com.
plete man is ready to spread blessings
to all with whom he comes in contact.
Captain Cottingham, the great drill
soldier. after having won prize as
the best drilled soldier, was asked how
he ever managed to win it. He an
swered: L attribute my success princi-
pally to three things: First, ! drilled.
He thought moment and then said:
Second, drilled And after a moment
said; Third, | drilled,
IF you are going to do anything
worth while il is going to be by con-
slant, patient, perseverance. And then,
as we come to the end of this short
life, we look across the river where
we will just begin to live"

Graduating Exercises.

The First Baptist church was taxed
nearly to its capacity at the IL o'clock
service Sunday morning when the com.
mencement exercises of Bryan Baptist
Academy began. The musical program
rendered by the choir, with Mrs. II. O.
Boatwright at the organ, was most ex-
cellent.
DR.. Weaver announced with regret
the absence of Rev. w. T. Tardy, who
had been selected to deliver the SER
mon to the graduating class. "Yet he
is justified in remaining with his peo-
pie, as Captain Hudgins, the oldest
deacon of his church, had just died,
and Rev. Mr.. Tardy could not attend
the funeral and then get here in time"
said Pastor Weaver.
DR.. Weaver then announced his text
as II. Col. 2:10: And We are completed
in Him." The entire discourse EN-
phasized the great truth that man may
be endowed with everything attainable
in this life, yet he is incomplete with
out Christ. He said in part:

CURRENT COMMENT
A Near View of Taft.

Taft's visit to Vermont last week was
success, from political standpoint
which was. doubtless, why it was made
at this time. He scrupulously avoided
the absorbing theme of the hour and was
simply seen and heard Mr.. Taft's pres
ence and personality are pleasing and
he depended altogether on these. Had he
adopted n similar attitude early in the
campaign, moving around among the peo-
pie as he did in Vermont, or at the most
dealing with political questions in the
way that is most natural and effective
for him, he would have been much
stronger. Taft was badly advised by a
lot of politicians with sore spots. His
Vermont visit will make him votes, and
it would not be surprising if ii proved
to be the determining factor in giving
him the state next month.--Randolph

Columbus Day Celebration a Financial
Success-sis.54 Left in Treasury.

Timothy Hornbrook. jr., was taken Il
the state hospital at Waterbury yester
day, to which institution he was com
mitted as state patient, as dipso,
maniac.
The city council held a special meet.
ing last night and voted to pay the dis.
trict nurse bill of 5000 for the six
months ending September l. This bill
had been held up for some time, as the
council thought some of the people
treated were able to pay their own bills
rather than have them transferred to
the city to settle. The committee on
accounts and claims, however. talked the
matter over with the woman's club,
which has charge Of the district nurse
work, and decided 10 settle the amount.
Some rebates were granted and tsIe
meeting adjourned.
That the Columbus day celebration
was financial success was determined
last evening. when the different commit
tees met and found balance OF S36s.54

Baseball Aftermath.

Now that the baseball championship
has been decided, it is worth while to
make comments on some features of the
| struggle through which the Red Sox and
| Giants have passed. First should be no
| ticed the fairness of the contests, it be-
| ing generally conceded by all the players
that the umpiring was as near perfect as
could be expected, and next the fact that
the players are given substantial fnan-
cial rewards for their efforts.
Ii is perfectly evident that several OF
the games should have been won by the
losing team if at critical junctures hits
had been made or if errors had not oc-
CURED, but these are the human elements
that enter into baseball and make it I'M
certain and therefore Fascinating. II
everything went automatically, interest
in the result would be gone and baseball
would be as colorless as checkers or dom
inoes. It's the human element of chance
that makes the game fine to watch or
follow by announcement.
The Red Sox won the series through
sheer grit coupled with their share of
luck. 1t was because they kept at it and
didn't give up that they overhauled the
Giants in the last game and finally won.
To assert as some thoughtless and unin-
formed people do, that the fate of any
game of the series was determined by
agreement beforehand is not only alb
surd but unfair to the baseball profess
sion. Every game was played for all it
was worth, without wrangling or bcker-
ing, and when things broke badly, as they
did several times for both teams, the
true explanation is that such mix-ups
usually happen in games where the ten
sion is high, and must be expected in a
series where half the nation is watching
to hear whether the next ball pitched is |
a ball or strike and the supreme court
Of the land gets the returns by innings,
while hearing an important case for the I
dissolution of a trust.
The Red Sox have emerged from the
series with honor, and while they are not
disposed, nor is anybody, to underrate
the work of the Giants, they fairly de-
serve the championship on their playing
through the year. heep it up, boys, may
your share of the financial profits be
spent wisely, and may you carry the
lonors modestly.-Boston Globe.

reelection every two years. In fact
once elected to the superior or supreme
court, man practiclly is chosen for
life in Vermont, which, barring idiosyn-
crasies OF judge now and then, assures
tie state of good service in its judicial
branch The men who hold the positions
generally realize when it is time for
them to retire because of advancing
years or impairment of health which
prevents them from giving that standard
OF service which the state ought TO have,
and they refuse further election by the
general assembly

When you come to think about it
$500 was extremely low bail for the
man who attempted to assassinate the
ex-president of the United States, even
though the mans purpose failed. ii
fact, $4,000 is none too large, in view
of the Importance of the case. At the
same time, it is probable that the per-
son under arrest in Milwaukee would
have been unable to secure the lesser
amount, or any considerable fraction of
it, so that the increase of the bail bond
to $4,000 will make no appreciable diff
ference in his case.
