Since prohibition went into eff
feet in Manitoba the provincial
police court has had little or moth
ing to do, according to report
made public last week. Since
June, when the bars closed, there
have been only nine jail sentences
imposed and two of these were
for offences committed in May.
Four of the others were bootleg
ging cases.
This is not by any means a
unique incident. Other localities
in which prohibition prevails tell
the same story. The more diff
cult a community makes it for the

would be glorious tribute to the

Some one has APPLY said that
"the collection Of individuals
makes the church; the collection
from individuals supports it. -
The business end Of religion is
secondary only to the religious.
The temporal and the spiritual go
hand in hand of necessity, because
of the human and divine elements

is situated the arsenal and iron foun-
dries. Wuchang, a city in itself of
100000, is a walled city, but the for
eign concessions all lie along the river
in Hankow. Wuchang is not an open
port such as is HankOw, but it has u
number of big industrial institutions,
among them a wooden mill, cotton
mill, and an albumen factory.
Will Be Busiest Place in China.
Northeast of Wuchang, in the obtuse
angle formed by the junction of the
Han and Yangtse Kiang, is situated the
port, or mart" of Hankow, designed
to be the busiest place in China as soon
as the three cities merge into Greater
Hankow. Hanyang takes it's name
from the two rivers, Han and Yangtse
Kiang. In Hanyang lies most of Great
er Hankow's claim to distinction as an
active industrial center.
Here is located the Hanyang iron
works founded by the late Chang Chin
tung. These huge works own their
own ore and coal fields located near
by. Rails for China's roads used to
come principally from us; now they
come from the Hanyang mills. An
arms factory is also located at Han
yang, and many thousands of Chinese
are employed there under the direc-
ton of skilled foreigners.
For all practical purposes Hanyang
may be considered as merely forming
a suburb of Hankow. The construc-
ton of fixed bridge across the Han
river will probably not be practicable,
owing to the sudden and great changes
in the height of the water level. 1t is
therefore proposed to facilitate COM
munication between the two cities by
means of transporter, and when this
contrivance is completed the three riv-
er towns will practically be welded into
one, forming Greater Hankow.
Hankow is the strategic center for
China's system of railroads. Its riv-
ers are continually choked with traffic.
Hitherto the only wharveS available
have been in the foreign concessions in
Hankow proper. No intercommunica-
ton was hitherto possible between the
three cities, all within a stones throw,
and aggregating 100000 people.
When Hankow was burned during
the revolution, che citizens began TO
rebuild along the old, insanitary lines.
1t was this woeful inclination on the
part of the people which made the gov
eminent step in and borrow money
with which to rebuild on approved
lines which will make Hankow what
nature designed it to be, the greatest
industrial city in Asia. Ocean-going
vessels may lie at dock in Hankow 600
miles from salt water, almost as far
inland as Chicago is from the Atlantic.

ways wanted it. He said my apple
pies would make man of you, and
if it's humanity possible for any wom-
an to make a man of you I'm willing
to try. But don't talk about love to
mel"
With which she gathered up her
skirts and flounced out of the room.
Ned was not likely to talk of love to
her. They had never got on together.
Miss Burt's temper was what is Gus
tomary in strong-minded women, and
is politely labeled uncertain"
The thought of marrying Miss Burt,
twenty years his senior, was the most
repulsive one that had ever come into
the young mans head. The thought
Of Nellie was always with him. Now
Nellie was not in the least strong
minded. She was as charming and
feminine as she could be, and they
loved each other to distraction.
But even at thirty Ned had not
wholly gagged the ways of women.
Nellie learned Of the will almost as
soon as it was read, and Ned, calling
to break the news and announce his
eternal fidelity, was amazed to find
Nellie in tears.
$50 on and marry her, then" she
sobbed. 81 always knew you didn't
care anything for me-"
''But, dearest" protested Ned, "this
isn't right. I came to tell you that /
love you and want you"
Eyes, you can say that well enough"
wept Nellie. 'Tm not going to ruin
your life prospects. Go on and marry
her, and be happy with her."
"Nellie, won't you listen to reason?"
pleaded the young man.
81 am reasonable" retorted Nellie.
"Why should your uncle, have put that
absurd provision into his will unless
he knew that you and that Burt wom-
an cared for each other?"
Because he was a mean old cur
mudgeon," shouted Ned, at last be-
ginning to grow angry. Because he
knew 1 hated the woman and he want
ed to have his revenge on me in
death. That's why"
His anger calmed Nellie little; it
showed her that at least she had the
power to awaken some emotion in him,
even if it was not love.
81 want you to marry her. Ned"
she sobhed. ''Then will wait for you
all my life. Maybe she'll die some
day. She can't live to be more than
ninety, and then you'll be seventy and
7 shall be sixty-two."

He Saw the Elephant.

The home of William G. Irwin, a
Columbus banker, is famous for it's
sunken gardens and on Sundays people
come from every direction to visit the
place, Mr.. Irwin leaving the gates
open and making the visitors welcome.
In the garden is a bronze elephant
about one-half life size. 1t seems to
have provided the basis for this story.
A man employed in a Columbus fac
tory was going to his work when a
woman who is a stranger in Columbus
accoSted him.
"Can you direct me to the sunken
gardens?" she asked.
The man gave her the necessary
directions and was about to start on
when she asked another question.
"Can you tell me whether the ami
mails are in the garden now?" she
wished to know.
"Yes," the man answered after a
moments delay, eyes, think they are.
At least saw the elephant there when
came past."-Indianapo News.

manship, you will see how perfect it is.
and wonder how such tiny children, as
some of them are, could weave the bas-
kets so perfectly. The little children
in this country have begun to do some
work of that sort with raffia, but they
do not equal the children Of the islands
in designing and making baskets.
These are of all shapes, and it is said
that no two are alike, and yet the de-
sign is so perfect that it can be meas
ured in any part. The government
agent gathers up the baskets and pays
the children who make them, and then
they are sold in this country.

Uncle Jabez's
Joker
8ANah


By
GEORGE MUNSON


81 leave the remainder of my world
ly goods to my only nephew, Edward
Lewis, with the proviso that, unless
he shall marry my housekeeper, Miss
Lucinda Burt, within three calendar
months, it shall revert to the said
Home for Incurable Horses at Lyons"
The lawyer folded UP the will. 1.-THE
remaining clauses I am not at liberty
to divulge," he remarked. ''They deal
solely with other legacies and have mo-
reference either to Mr.. Lewis or to
Miss Burt"
Ned listened in disgust and horror.
He had had a serious quarrel with
his uncle a month before the old mans
sudden death, and had left the house
where he had spent the better part of
his life, since his father died. And
grabbed old Uncle Jabez had humil-
lated and tainted him in this, his last
document.
For Miss Lucinda Burt was fifty il
she was day, and not pretty at that.
She had been his uncle'S faithful
housekeeper for twenty years, and she
made wonderful apple pies. In fact
Ned'S uncle had advised him to marry
her on the strength of this accomplish
ment alone. But Ned had not taken
Uncle Jabez seriously. Who would?
To add to the young mans troubles,
he was desperately in love with pretty
Nellie Gray, the stenographer of his
uncle's business partner. He had
hardly penny saved, though he now
had a good position. And his uncle's
twenty thousand meant lot to him.
AS for Miss Burt, she shifted con-
teInptuously-she was a strOng-minded
woman-and came over to Ned.
'Tm willing to marry you," she
said, ito please Mr.. Jabez. He al
