arwich, Monday, March 1, 1909, - warranted or not. It has not always been the fashion in the aity coust to deal with this kind of interference as it should be dealt with, Judge Brown gave the men who assaulted an officer 75 days with costs, which really amounts to three months’ fmprisonment. Leniency in this direction is always misiaterpreted and is in effect a mis- take. A Massachusetts judge whe had tried probation and fines for such con- duet on the part of sympathizers and friends, and it had done no good, so the other day he gave an offender for assault on an officer three months in prison. In aeddressing the eourt the judge sald: “Perhaps the disgrderly element will learn wisdom In this semtence. It makes no difference whether you are Ysakee, Irish, French Pele, Armen- 4an, Greek, or what you are, wWwhen you see en officer arresting a man, don't butt in and try to aid the man to escape or in any way interfere with the officer in the disch of his duty. If the arrest is an I{mproper one there are ceurts to which you can order even should he go to greater lengths than this. THE NEWSPAPER AS AN EVAN- GELIST. The recent religious revival in Bos- ton, the public print of which wae in the hands of the committee that has been in charge of the Chapman revival campalgn will teceive contributions of money to ad- vertise church work. Then let the committes get In touech with the ad- vertising men on the newspapers and find how much it will cost to run a page, say, of church advertising mat- ter each week. Varlous kinds of com- modities are advertised heavily. If are told about Christ in the same many will be saved. Then, after has ereated an iInterest it to the personal workers to the work, My idea is to interest In this great revival just closed to the fromt by advertising. It's a great scheme one that I kmow will be a winner time when tried vut In the right et The {dea f& not to advocats doctrines dut to propagate the truth—to present the principles of right Hving In an interesting, . impressive and helpful Y. This is not the dream of a theorist, for it is a practical way of promoting the spiritual well-being of the people. OLD AGE PENSIONS. @enator Hansborough wants the United States to pay old age pensions, and certain Connecticut people ask that the state place aged school teach- ere on the penslon roll. So it gooes! All thet 1s really needed to make us «ll prosperous and more or less con- tented is to have the state pay all of us an annuity of $1,000 each. What's the use of bothering with pémsions for a few only? ILet us all In on a good thing. The taxpayer? Oh, forget him! ¥e's practically forgotten, any- how.—Bristol Press. We may as woll look at this thing rationally, for the trend is apparent— the handwriting is upon the wall. Tha day of old-age pensions—pensions for all Instead of for elasses—is right abead of us. Germany has an old-age pensioning system, and England has ome, and it is not Mkely to be many years before America and every other ciyflized country will have one, If wisely managed, the cost of it is not Hkely to fall too heavily upon the tax- payer. The industries and the indus- tria} workers of Germany contribute to it. In effect, this German method makes contrfbutions compulsory upon all who work and in the end it s Iike money earned and saved—a support they are entitled to. No pensioning ey#tem should rest wholly upon prop- erty, be a tax upon the prudent and frugal, but should rest upon all and a4 @ matter of fact it will be no great- er A& tax than present charitable sys- Tems. PR i -4 P . —— PUBLIC UTILITIES. It Jooks as if the public ulilities bin had been shunted into the blind alley. It was assigned for g hearing on Mareh 2. Now it is not at all. It has been taken off the list. It is lald on the shelf. Dust will collect upon it until it s decided to again present it for public consideration. ‘We are told that several people urged that this bill be laid over for a time qs they were mot ready to dis- cuss it. ‘Who “They” are is not revealed, It is becoming more and more ap- parent that there are “theys” who pro. peose to bury this public utilities bill so deep that it will net hear a call to resurroction during this session of the general assembly. Perhaps the bili may De continued to the next gession. If it isn’t continued it will be killed absolutely wunless public sentiment rallies to {ts support with a strength more irresistible than opponents of the bill believe possible.—New Haven INTERFERING WITH THE POLICE There should be no tolerance shown toward men who attempt to prevent & polige offieer from making an arrest whether they think his conduct 1s written across its face now. OVERCOMING THE WHITE PLAGUE farm: “This institution s one which deserveg the most cordial support of every citizen of Connecticut.” There seems little doubt but the state will not hesitate to appropriate liberally for this institution this year.—An- sonla Sentinel. ‘With the present interest in the an- ti-tuberculosis movement, every gen- uine ald in that excellent business ought to be supported liberally, and doubtless will be. The state can af- ford to make & falir appropriation for the Gaylord farm where something has been done, and.is gtill being done, in the matter of overcoming the white plague. Every week we feel more and more certaln that the end of the ter- rible disease will be reached and a scourge under which humanity has ‘hopeleéssly suffered for ages, will practically cease to exist, Speed the work!—~Bridgeport Standard. This is necessary work, but it is dealing with an effect not a cause. It wil] not make an end of tuberculo: any more than the anti-toxins have made an end of pneumonia. The place to fight the white plague is in the homes where it originates by removing the cause, Impure air, insufficient sustenance, shallow breathing, are the sources of this preventible disease, and the way to prevent it,is to pro- mote the conditions which make it impossible. Free air in sieeping rooms, deep breathing, baths and the observ- ance of the rules of health will pre- vent the disease. It will never be ex- terminated because these rules will never be universally obsrved, The family enlightenment and general ob- servance of the rules of health is the only way of reducing the white plague to the least possible number of victims. EDITORIAL NOTES. Hetty Greene’s son-in-law is 65, and is likely to be tolerant of all her ec- centricities. One writer about Roosevelt says that he “writes like a newspaperman and acts llke a cyclone.” The baseball umpire cannot be 100k- ing forward with hope, for there can- not be any hope for him, ‘When it comes to Lent, the green hat looks very much like 2 misfit ex- cept on St. Patrick’s day. Let us hope that Inaugural week will be pleasant and agreeable from the opening to the close. Legal action against the Standard Ofl company is so persistent that the attorneys ean get no vacations. An Ohlo minister says “kisses are as intoxicating as liquor.” He must have had a sad and varied experience, e abt s Qe Happy Houston {s about to become a railroad terminus with a million and a half dollar outfit to designate its im- portance. In two days more Roosevelt will be- come a private citizen; dut, then, he will be unable to keep his name out of print. If Taft's inaugural address is only 5,000 words In length it may weigh more than some zddresses three times as long. Down at Portland, Me., they are con- soling themselves with the thought that they are just one cold wave near- er spring. ‘When it comes to giving up things in Lent, no woman {s on record vet as having given up havidg a new | spring hat. The burglars who stole the burglar alarm from the store they entered must have been prompted in this by a spirit of humor. The Philadelphia doctor who de- clareg that “all bald-headed men are degenerates,” cannot realize the enor- mity of his offense. Happy thought for today: A price- mark never looks good upon a man, however pleasing it may be when seen upon other objects, The Massachusetts legisiature has decided that it is not doinz a full day's work and has determined upon longer daily sessions. February had its halo on straight during its elosing hours. Now if March will blow *“self out we may have an encouragingly early spring, A New Hampshire wife-murderer who had served one-sixth of his sen- tence has been pardoned by the gov- ernor, Three years’ confinement doesn’t discourage murder. No Midnight Massacre. Governor Lilley Is afreid that some bcdy intends to assassinate his pub- lec utflities commission project by shooting it in the back with a noise- less gun, and certainly signs are sus- picious. ; March 2 had been set for the hear- ing, but it is announced that there are opponents to the bill, and that “they” | asked to have the hearing adjourned | to some later date, not yet fixed. The thought Instantly arises that “they” want the fight to be as short as pos- sible, so that the bill can be killed or denatured in the closing days of the session, If this bill i§ disposed of by mid- night massacre and without full op- portunity for free discussion and a falr fight both in the committee and on the floor of the house, there will be a big scandal The people of the state want it, the press ‘of the state is almost a unit in demanding it, and the public should get after the general assembly and see that something is done.

There js a rnge‘now for eream white suits worn with hat and accessories of nut brewn. The black sash, with bow and ends at the side, {s worn even wtih the sep- arate waist and skirt, although pre- ferably not with the plain tailored waist. Black velvet bonnets are flourishin, in the land; big and litle, simple an elaborate, but black velvet. There Is also a hint of the poke in spring mil- linery. Mousseline volles will be faddish this seagon and will be made into very styl- ish evening robes. Coarse round white cord is used to outline narrow panels upon white lin- en dresses. Another charming combination is the white costume, trimmed with gray, with gray hat and furs. HOJSEWIFE SUGGESTIONS. A little kerbsene added to the wash water is sald to make the clothes extra white.

There s a prejudice that 1t is some- how childigsh to go to bed early, even when one has nothing to stay up for; that one is wasting time when the hours before midnight are passed in sleep. Nothing can be more utterly mistaken. One's best sieep may be gotten before midnight, and who would say that a habit which keeps one in good trim and in good spirits is time wasted? IN THE KITGHEN.
