It is unlawful to offer deer killed in this state for sale, according 10 an opinion of Attorney General George L.. Hinman to superintendent John M. Champion of the fish and game com mission. The attorney general says that it is not the intention Of the law Of 1915 to permit the ~anton destruc- ton of deer. Reports made to the commission show that deer nave been killed at an excessive rate and the Con- neclicut Humane Society has been in formed that cruelty has been practiced in hunting deer.

The Catholic University's Jubilee.

The Catholic University Of Amer
ica. which is now celebrating its
twenty-hitl anniversary, has estab-
lished a high place among the edu-
cational institutions of this country.
II has succeeded in its educational
work apart from its connection with
a religious organization. Its early
graduates are now scattered through
out the country doing useful profess
sional work in various lines, while,
OF course, many of its former stu
dents have entered the priesthood.
From the beginning it has enjoyed a
steady growth and development. and
now possesses an equipment Of mag
n,tude and exceptional attractiveness.
II has added greatly to Washington's
Importance as an educational center.
This celebration 10 attended with cir
cumstsnees of exceptional interest, in
the presence here Of the highest dig
nitaries of the Roman Catholic
church in this country.

The Park Band Concerts.

The program for the summer band
concerts in the District parks is in
preparation and will soon be an
nounced, assuring Washington a
series Of enjoyable musical after
Moons and evenings in such locations
as to afford practically every part
of the city an opportunity eonven-
iently to attend. This feature of
Washington life is most enjoyable.
Some years ago the band concerts
we're confined to the appearance of
the Marine Band at the Capitol and
White House, but the suggestion that
the other military bands stationed
near Washington be utilized else
where was adopted, with the result
that probably there is no other city
in the United States where good
music is SO freely enjoyed by the
people. The parks are thus put to
their best uses and great enjoyment
is given to thousands of people who
otherwise would seldom hear good
music.

The Newman Case.

With the closing OF the arguments
before the United States Supreme
Court in the case of Commissioner
Newman's title to Office. the matter
now rests with the court, and the
issue must be awaited. in the hope
that the court will not long delay
its decision. The case is not SO COM
pick as to involve a protracted con-
sideration. 1t comprises primarily
the question of whether the. courts
can review presidential appoint
ments to Office on questions of e1igi-
biiity. in construction of statutory
qualifications. Should the Supreme
Court hold with the Commissioner
that the Presidents right to appoint
cannot be questioned after the
Senate has confirmed, whatever may
be the terms of the statute prescrib-
ing qualifications, the case is neces-
sarily ruled in his favor, and a
new principle of law will have
been established If on the other
hand the court holds that such ap-
pointments are renewable by the
courts it then may proceed to a con-
sheraton of the matter on its merits
or it may decide that the judgments
of the lower courts should stand
without specific review. II such re-
view is entered upon the court NAV
uphold the judgment Of the Court of
Appeals which sustained the verdict
rendered in the District Supreme
Court, or it may reverse that judg-
ment and order the case for a new
trial Should the ruling of the court
be favorable to the Commissioner on
point of law or evidence involving
a retrial it is inevitable that his
requisite three years of residence will
have been completed before the final
adjustment of the case. If, how
ever, the Supreme Court now rules
against him. and fully af1irms the
judgment of the court below, that
decision, should it come before the
expiration of the three years of the
Commissioners present residence in
Washington. will act as an custer
from Office.

1t could not be otherwise when the
conditions under which the publica-
ton is produced are considered. But
they are fewer than is generally sup
posed. Competent men take down
the debates, and transcribe their
notes with care.
The Star on one occasion sug-
gested as an improvement that the
Record be illustrated. 1t renews the
suggestion now. The picture of a
statesman accompanying his speech
or a stirring representation of a
stirring scene on the floor of Senate
or House, would add to interest in
the narrative and secure closer at
tention for it.
The Albany legislators would do

recommends. The newspapers, at

the duty of fullest details, would con-
tain matter OF moment to every cltl-
zen interested in what is going on

all have stake. As usual, Mr.. Root
is right.

Lincoln and the Lesson.

Fifty years ago today died the
great man whose wisdom, patience
love and unfagging courage had sus-
tanned the cause of the Union
through four years OF bloody strife
He had guided-often under indie
scribable diff culties-the effort tc
preserve the nation, 50 that govern
1rcnt OF the people. by the people
for the people, might not perish from
The earth" Success. at last. was at
hand. Appomattox-only few days
o1d-had told the story. supremely
comforting to him and to all who
held with him. Peace. at last. was
assured
But would peace be permanent?
There were pessimists who doubted.
There were enlbittered men who
hoped Tor a renewal OF hostilities.
Btu; tie great body OF those who had
been III arms against the national
authority accepted the result in good
faith. and. under the inspiration and
ad;uration OF the greatest man
among the1n-Robert E Lee-be-
came loyal supporters Of that author
ity again.
Some wears OF trial followed.
Reconciliation moved slowly. But it
moved surely The one flag. flying
everywhere once more, commanded
respect: and former enemies are now
warm friends. Victor and vanquished
rejoice alike in the reunited country,
and Mr.. Lincoln has become ma
tional hero. Some of the most elo-
quent and sincere of the almost
countless eulogies his genius and
character and accomplishments have
inspired have been spoken by men
who wore the gray uniform of the
Confederacy.
Europe is now torn, as we were
then. by armed strife Fury has
taken the place of negotiation.
i ives are being offered up without
stunt. Property is being destroyed
without thought of its value. So
high are passions running and so ap-
palling the consequences. the short
sighted and the fainthearted fear
that all are doomed, and that the
world will wallow in woe for thou
sand years.
History laughs at such feelings and
predictions. The great nations of
Europe are at present, as America
was half century ago, in a fever.
But the physician who never fails
. Old Doctor Time-will pull them
Through. He pulled US through, and
we are stronger now than ever be-
fore. The America OF the seventy
years prior to the civil war was but
feeble power by comparison with
the America the world knows today.
The experience was bitter, but the
war made US truly a nation.

And we're said to be improving
Since the days when we began to
evolute.
We no longer swing and scurry
Through the tree tops in hurry.
We find no time for such a crude
pursuit.
As we fight, or merely wrangle,
We no longer pause to bangle
From a branch, for recreation, now
and then,
Though we do some curious pranc-
ing
In our walking or Our dancing,
And we chatter nonsense both with
voice and pen.
We surpass that simian creature
Both in manner and in feature
Or. is our manner elegant and neat

Due to careless evolution
Which neglected to leave fingers on

Senator Works called attention 10 the
fact that several members OF the sen
ate were interested in Christian Sci

OF their own or that Of some member
OF their families. Of the curative eff

He read letter written by Senator
Moses r. Clapp OF Minnesota giving a
statement Of Senator Clapp's healing
from rheumatism through Christian
Science The letter follows:
For many years ! was a sufferer
from rheumatism This became com
plicated with heart trouble. and tins
became 80 acute that al times I did
not dare TO sleep in a reclining posi-
ton. and often slept in a sitting post
ure. fearing a fatal attack II ! went
90 sleep lying down. I used various
remedies for rheumatism that seemed
20 temporarily relieve the pain. but
all remedies in time seemed TO lose
their efficacy and the relief was only
temporary.
Finally in a spirit more OF hope
than Of any real expectation OF get
ting relief. / took treatment in Chris
tian Science with the result that
obtained immediate and complete re-
lief from rheumatism. and after time
all symptoms Of heart trouble disap-
peared. This was some years ago.
and have never suffered from either
since.
Subsequent study. experience and
observation has satisfied me that the
only Limitation upon the healing tn
Christian Science Is our knowledge OF
the subject
