1t will be seen that at first every one
was compelled to go to church every
Sunday; later on, they were not punished
unless they stayed away for one month;
in 1871 the time was extended to three
months, and a few years later done away
with entirely.
The firsts section OF the act OF 1871 is
important, as Il Is the foundation Of the
existing law, and indeed is now in exist
ence. many exemptions having been made,
however, by reason of changed conditions,
which are contained in the revised laws
of 1902. These exemptions have been in
cluded from time to time, and are prac-
tically all provisions that relate to the
carrying on of different kinds of business
of a nature unknown in 1871. The steam

HAMBURG HARBOR SAID
TO BE FINEST OF KIND
New York and London Fight for First
Place, but Other Is More
Modern.

Hamburg Harbor is one Of the greatest
if not the greatest enterprise OF the kind
in the world" writes Frank c. Bolles,
commercial agent of the United States in
that mighty German port. and with every
right. too.
There is nothing like II on the face OF
the globe New York and London fight
it out each year for the supremacy of all
the ports OF the world, with New York a
couple OF millions ahead at last reports
on the total commerce. Hamburg, Sc
curely settled in third place, has. how
ever, the finest. most modern facilities to-
day OF any seaport anywhere, outrivaling
both its American and English competi-
tors.
Some conception of the extent of this
mighty harbor may be obtained from the
fact that It provides more than 80, 900 lin
ear feet of dockage. with 100000 square
feet of space for unloading. These docks
are, however, used for package freight
only, the bulk cargoes being unloaded at
other Quays directly into cars for trans
port to destination, or into elevator and
storage warehouses, or into lighters for
transportation by water route to inland
factories. Two years ago an extension OF
these already large harbor facilities were
decided upon and an expenditure author
lied to cover another 1000 linear feet of
quay.
In 1912 there were unloaded in Hamburg
Harbor IS, 400 vessels with an aggregate
tonnage of 100000.
Originally the Elbe, which makes Ham
burg Harbor, had a depth Of fifteen Geet
at high water. but continuous dredging
has resulted in a thirty-seven-foot chan
mel clear to the open sea, some fifty miles
distant This depth is to be Increased to
forty feet.
A tunnel has been driven under the Elbe
that enables pedestrians and teams TO
pass uninterruptedly. There are two
tubes of wrought metal twenty feet in
diameter that terminate on either side of
the river at elevator shafts, there being
no inclined roadway. as is the case with
most river tunnels.

RECENT DROUGHT
SMALL BY COMPARISON
Records Show Period of More Than
Year When State Of Kansas
Wa Pnrehed.

For the farmers Of the Middle West
who are working under the burden Of .
waterless summer, some relief may be
found In the record Of q drought In KAN
sas that lasted from September, 16e, to
October, 1850. The rain quit falling the
first day Of September, 1883. Winter and
spring pass without relief. June is
thunder cloud came up, but It was what
Col. Connor would call a dry thunder
storm. Despite the raging Of the ele-
ments only q few drops OF rain could
be coaxed from the sky, t9st enough to
aggravate the situation further. The poor.
spindling stalks OF corn grew up about
three feet. tasseled out and then died.
A historian OF Bourbon County tells of
what followed.
"In the early part of July the thermo-
meter ranged from ss degrees 20 1o4 in

ls2 degrees. BY the middle Of July the
heat was awful It Is a matter OF rec

THE prairie grass which had grown
up to about three inches turned brown
and was dry enough to burn. II Is said
that eggs would roast in the sand at
midday-actually were roasted The ther-
raometer was 1+6 degrees in the sun. Thus
the terrible drought continued day after
day, week after week, month dfter

The drought was broken early in octo-

PuritaDicaI Beliefs.

A study of Sabbath legislation as It
has affected Massachusetts, particularly
shows numerous acts in the colonial days
that afford some idea Of the puritanical
beliefs of the time which have affected
Sunday legislation more or less ever
since. Following the English common
law, as the other colonies did for some
years, the Plymouth and Massachusetts
Bay colonies began early to make regu-
lations Of their own. In 1858 an enact
ment of the Plymouth colony set forth
that sleeping in church and jesting on
the Lords Day was deemed proclamation,
punishable, after admonition, by impris-
onment in the stocks. In 1868 and 1870
It seems that the Legislature was not
satisfied with the way the people were
attending public worship, SO they passed
laws trying to remedy ii, even authoriz-
ing a constable to repair to any house
or place where they may suspect that
any slothfully do lurk at home or get
together in companies to neglect public
worship or to profane the Lords Day."
In 1851 Plymouth became united TO
Massachusetts, and from that time Sun
ssy legislation applied to both.
