him the restitution of lent umbrella"

Chester Sires, formerly a resident

brought him here for trial.-Humes-

Here is a thought that arises in
connection with the news of the dis
astrous effects of the drought in the
middle west, with wells and cisterns
drying up and human beings actually
suffering for drinking water. How
the pride of man is humbled in the
face of frowning nature and the ele-
ments! Human beings boast of their
diligence. of their independence,
of their mastery over the power of
nature, of their acknowledgements
yet, if the clouds withheld rain all
over this continent for even few
months, the calamity would be hor-
rible to contemplate, and millions of
human beings would be helpless in
face of the resultant water famine.
Just a slight alteration in the ordi-
nary operations of nature and in a
few months or few years at most,
the whole human race might be WHIP
ed out Of existence. why should
the spirit of mortal man be proud?"

WIDOWS PENSION LAW WRONG
LY CONSTRUED.
Many Have Opinion That 1t Provides
For Pension for Widow with
Children under Fourteen
Years Old,

Judge Maxwell on the hearing of
number of the so-called widows
pension cases in court at CrestOn last
week, called attention to the fact
that there seemed to be very gen.
eral misunderstanding of the pro-
visions of the so-called widows pen
sion law passed by the last legisla-
I ture. He said: 1T seems to be I'M
derstood by many that the law pro-
vides for the granting of pension
to widows who are mothers of chill
dren under l 4 years of age. What
ever may be said in favor Of such a
law, mere reference to the act will
disclose the fact that no such law
was enacted. The juvenile court law
enacted few years ago, authorized
the court upon a proper hearing to
make an order committing dependent
children or neglected children to the
care of some suitable state institu-
ton or any of the authorized chill
dren's homes. The new law is mere
ly an amendment to that law, which
authorizes the court in such case
where the mother is a widow, if
thought best for the child, to permit
the child to remain at home, and
make an allowance of not exceeding
two dollars week for the support
of each child to be paid by the board
of supervisors through the overseer
of the poor So after all is said it
simply permits the court to do what
the overseer of the poor has long
had authority to do, that is extend !
county aid for the support of poor ;
and dependent children. In fact his
authority is broader than that of the
court, because he may extend aid
whether the mother is a widow or
not and the court can only do so
when the mother Is a widow. In all
of these cases which are brought be-
fore me l shall attempt to observe
the provisions of the law as whole
and if in my judgment the welfare
of the child requires it the case will
be treated as the law required before
the late amendment was enacted |
Where it is desirable and proper for
the child to remain at home with it's
mother | can see no necessity for an
application for support being made
to the court in the first instance. APP
plication for aid should be made to
the overseer of the poor in the first !
instance, and if not furnished, the
court can be readily appealed to at
any time.
