The Injury.

Register and Leader: A fourteen
year old school girl in New York was
arrested and found guilty Of disorder
ly conduct for calling after a teach
er "Oh you Fausel.''
She may be fined $500 and detained
as juvenile delinquent for a year or
she may be subjected to both penal
ties. 1t depends on the heart of the
Judge by whom she will be sentenced.
Thus is the majesty of the law up
held in the courts of New York. Thus
Justice is illumined and confirmed
Thus the dignity of the school master
is enforced.
But in the meantime nine homicides
have occurred In New York in ninety
days, and the police department has
failed to ind one OF the perpetrators
or to solve the mystery of the m,.--
ders The blood Of the dozen victims
cry for vengeance but justice sadly
limps when it comes to heinous crimes
OF this character.
The contrast between the course OF
authority in the case OF the childish
joker and the nine murderers, how
ever, is too great to PASS unnoticed.
1t is calculated to do very great injury
for 1t gives the mind of the unrutored
a wrong impression about equality be-
fore the law.

LAVENDER.
sweet, sharp Whit OF scent that
sweeps the air
All clear of tumult. Crowds are
whisked away
BY its pure poignance All the sky Is
bare
At once Of scowling walls that bar
the day.
The cackling voices of the shoddy ones
Who shop are silenced clang CT
traffic stilled,
And in the hushed, soothed air it
seems there runs
The silver sound of brooks. A
garden filed
With old time flowers glowingly ap-
pears,
AS though Aladdin rubbed his lamp
in slee;
A garden filed with tall and flaming
spears
OF hollyhock; where roses ramble
free,
Where mignonette and pansies' maid
en- wiles
Lure eager hands: where pendant
bleeding heart
Hangs plumply pink: where summer
sits and smiles
Beside still paths, and plies her
every art
To prank the day in beauty. Where
the sun
Sucks sweetness from the earth;
where velvet bees
Drug senses with their hum. Ere
days begun
The birds fill all the air with piping
glees.
All this with one sharp odor. poignant

A car clangs. Gone the gardens
scented stir.
No garden-just busy city street
Wherein a blind man peddles laven.

REV. MAL0NY
 ENJOYED TRIP
Was First Missionary To Hold Ser. vices In Chisana and Maintain.
 ed Church's Precedent.

Rev. E. H. Molony, who accompan- jed Bishop Rowe to Tanana Cross- ing, has returned home after an ab- sence of six weeks, during which time he mushed several hundred miles.
 At the time Bishop Rowe was in Valdez he was in very poor health and the Women's Guild of the Church of the Epiphany, not wishing him to make the long trip alone, arranged to defray the expenses of Rev. Molony to accompany the bishop as far as Tanana Crossing, where Bishop Rowe expected to be met by guide from Fairbanks.
 Rev. Molony states that during the first three days he was somewhat anx. ious about Bishop Rowe, fearing that he would not be able to stand the trip. After the first three days he be- gan to figure how he was going to keep up with the party. Bishop Rowe appeared to grow stronger and more vigorous every day of the trip and was in fine condition when they reached Panama Crossing. At Man tasta Bishow Rowe renewed acquain. tance with old Chief John and, as the latter is nearing the close of his earthly career, the bishop, assisted by Rev. Molony, baptized, confirmed and gave the holy communion to the chief in the presence of the members of the tribe.
 Leaving Bishop Rowe at Tanana Crossing, Rev. Molony. accompanied by Driver Jenkins, of Gokona, turn ed southward and reached Chisana via the Tetlin and Nabesna trail, a distance of 225 miles, in eight and one-half days. He states that he found the miners in Chisana very hopeful that their camp would make good and were busy prospecting. Be. ing the first missionary to reach the camp he was given a rousing recep- tion everywhere. Seventy persons, in- cluding Marshal Hoffman and Judge Finnigan, attended the services in Chisana. He also held service at Bon anza, where thirty people attended.
 At Nebesna Rev. Molony baptized two native children, whose parents proudly boasted that they had been baptized by Bishop Bompas, at Forty mile, on the Yukon, many years ago.
 From Chisana over the glacier to Mccarthy Rev. Molony was accom- panied by Broncho Bill Spencer. While crossing over the divide they were caught in a blizzard and spent several hours hunting for stakes which line the trail to keep travellers from becoming lost. He declares that while the trip over the glacier Is somewhat dangerous the view is mag nificent and is equalled by but few places in Alaska, the land of scenic wonders.
