worship was put Town in Samaria, She mar
dered all the royal family Of Judah, except
the youthful Joush, who escaped.
Fhus Athalit secured to herself the royal
power, which she exercised over Judah for s
years. At length a conspiracy was formed
under the immediate direction of Jehoiada,
the High-Priest, to depose Athalie, and to-
place JousL- on the throne. Athalie was Put

NEW HAVEN ROAD WAS LoOTEO interstate Commerce Commission
 Charges Morgan and Associates With Graft.

WASHINGTON, July l4.-The lns- terstate Commerce commissioners have completed the investigations into the administration of the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road and issued their findings today. The report denounces the previous administration of the road and says: "The manipulations of the stock and the money of the road is the most glaring instance of maladministra- tion on record in the United States" ;"
 The report does not single out Mellen or Morgan as the responsible head of the stock and money job ping, but makes the direct charge that $4O,O0O,00O has been lost to the stockholders of the railroad, most of which, however, the report states, can be recovered because the direct ors are liable and were guilty of fraud.
 It is charged that besides the $4O,- 900, 1000 stolen another $25,000,00 was wasted because of the negligence of the directors in caring for the trust imposed in them by the stockholders.
 It is expected that associations of stockholders will commence legal action at once against J. P. Morgan x Co. and the directors who aided in the footing.

THERE WERE DENTISTS
 A THOUSAND YEARS AGO

WASHINGTON.-D Marshall H. Saville, Loubat professor of American archaeology in Columbia university, discovered on a trip to Ecuuador last summer evidences of successful transplanting of human teeth more than a thousand years ago.
 "In a skull," writes Professor Sa- vile in The Bulletin of the Pan American Union, twas right lateral incisor which did not belong to the jaw, but was transplanted to replace the middle incisor. There seems to be no reason to doubt that the replacement was a genuine triumph of the ancient dentists"

place, the management Of the chautau
qua was under agreement to submit tbs
program TO the Business Mems Club
That was not done The coming Of tbs
band, and that is the one great feature
Of the cbautauqua. on Saturday last
year disturbed our people greatly, be-
cause majority Of those who arc en-
gagged in business here 10 the city could
not attend either Of the performances
on that day We made no complaint,
however, as somebody must have the
band on Saturday, and our people took
it that we could accept the situation
with the anticipation that next year
someone else would get the band date
on Saturday The next year is here
and with it the band comes again on
Saturday, according to the program.
Union City, in other words, is to be the
Goat. We assume that the manage
ment put the band here on Saturday to
save railroad fare. Perhaps so, but that
reason is not sufficient to satisfyus. We
want the chautauqua meetings for the
pleasure they bring us, and il we cam
not get them in that way, we do not
want them at all. We have some equi-
ties, and il it is the intention to ignore
us, and that has already been done in
the matter OF failure to submit the pro-
gram, we should demand, even at the
price OF losing the chautauqua next
year altogether, some consideration in
his matter, and we promise it will be
lone, unless we get some concessions.

], NJ, Embrey, Of this city, has been

pretext. The decoy was that the Italian
was in prison and about to die. He was
IN possession Of fortune OF $40O, 900,
which had been deposited in London
subject to bearers check. His story
was that he had married relative Of
Mr.. Embrey and that he would leave
little girl unprotected, who, he asserted,
was q niece Of Mr.. Embrey This he
claimed 70 learn upon investigation.
Now he wanted Mr.. Embrey to be con-
stituted guardian Of his niece, and to
accept $100,000 fof his services, In the
meantime he wanted Mr.. Embrey to
forward 81 200 to defray the necessary
expenses in having the little girls eff
fects forwarded and some matters at
tended to by priest in closing up the
affair. Mr.. Embrey wrote that he would
be responsible IL these things were true,
but that the 81 200 must be advanced
by those taking the matter in hand, and
Mr.. Embrey at the same time wrote to

Grade Crossings and City Growth.


The city Of Philadelphia has entered
into contract with a number Of rail.
roads which viii result in the abolition
Of many grade crossings described as
'insuperable obstacles to the city's ex-
tension in one direction The arrange
ment is characterized as IAN important
forward step in one Of the most far
reaching movements ever undertaken
by Philadelphia
Grade crossings are Objectionable for
many reasons and are responsible for
many evils. In Philadelphia, it seems,
they are charged with retarding the city
growth. This is a count which does not
appear in the ordinary Embarrassing
indictment, but Philadelphia is no: the
only city where it can be substantiated.
A little reflection will convince any SEN
sible person that a network OF grade
crossings may constitute serious i'm
pediment to city extension.
The truth is that the malign posi-
bilities OF the surface crossing increase
as one studies the subject. 1t is diff
cult to realize the full extent Of the evil
without taking into consideration the
benefits that would accrue from its elm
nation. That it is continual menace
to life is the most weighty objection
that can be urged against it. Aside
from that paramount reason for its abol-
ition there are other reasons that would
be good and sufficient if none better
existed.
City street perils multiply with city
growth. The crossing that was toler-
ated in village days becomes intolerable
with the augmentation of population
and traffic. The locomotive in city
streets is an anchronism. Besides be-
ng menace it is nuisance. 1t kills
lime and takes up room that is needed /
or other purposes. --Courier-Journal.

Bad Effects Of Farm Tenancy.

A soil survey Of Christian County,
recently published by the United States
Department OF Agriculture, calls atten-
ton to the increase OF the tenant sys-
tenn OF farming in that productive sgri-
cultural county.
The experts OF the department do
not regard the increase Of tenancy as
good omen from farming standpoint.
They point out that the careless meth
DDS employed under the tenant system
are an important factor in soil deterior-
alton; that the tenant frequently is as
sured Of only one or two years tenure,
which leaves him little or no incentive
to follow the approved methods for per-
manent agriculture. !" Land owners, it
is added, often are indifferent to the
treatmentof the soil, insisting only that
their tenants shall be able to pay the
rent. With the short-term tenant sys-
tenn the land owner cannot expect the
tenant to practice careful crop rotation,
to adopt system requiring the keep
ing of much livestock, to pillow under
crops supplying organic matter, or to
adopt any OF the methods, often labo-
rious and without immediate returns,
which are necessary in the proper man
agement OF the soil. {"
It is scarcely to be expected that the
ordinary farm tenant will concern him
self much with the conservation OF soil.
He is, as rule, interested in the soil
only to the extent Of what he is able to
make out of It after paying his rent.
IL is not SO easy to understand the in
difference OF the land owner. His soil
is his capital and il he permits it to de-
teriorate he loses money both in land
value and in leasing value.
Long leases are the exception Most
81 the land owners do not care to give
leases for period OF years and many
of the tenants themselves do not want
ong leases, There are some tenants
who seldom, il ever occupy the same
arm two years in succession. They
rave formed the moving habit and look |
Onward to a change OF location as a
