No one can long visit moving pic- ture shows without being convinced that the men who make and who ac- cept some of the pictures lack both sense and taste. Detroit has recog- nised theso moving pictures as capa- Dble of doing much harm as well as much good, and the word has gone forth that scenes depicting kidnapping must be prohibited. A contemporary remarks that “perhaps, those who were interested In the recent kidnapping case received from a moving pictuure show the first suggestion of the money raising possibilities In the crime. Or they might have been contemplating such an act and have found at a pic- ture show directions for carrying It out more or less successfully. In either consideration there is enough plausi- bility to lead to the wish that kid- napping pictures had been forbldden , long ago and to urge the hope that other views which show the hateful things of life may be removed before they have further opportunities to il- lustrate the power of suggestion. ‘These picture shows make too much of tragedy and scenes which are hor- rible, and too little of the beautiful in seenery and the commendable in con- duet, Managers should be discrimi- nating and show to children only such pletures as delight and educate—th Which lead to crime, or as the resu of erime show horrifying results, often cure patrons of the moving plcture fever. ‘The character of many of the ple- tures shows that the makers of them do not fully appreciate the good or the harm their work may do to the rising generatiop. SPEEDY JUSTICE, A negro who stabbed a white school. gir! to death at Richmond, Va. on February 18th, was electrocuted the other day within four weeks of the day the crime was committed. Ar- thilimus Christian was his name and within 24 hours of the offence he had been captured, presented in court, tried and convicted. There was no question s to his gullt and there is nothing to be sald against the des- patch shown fn his death, even If it Nas acoelerated by prejudice against seolor. TUnder the circumstances, what Is go0d enough for a black man !s good anough for a white one. There Is noth- Ing to be gained by long delays and R s not more merciful certainly to keep the culprit sitting for two years In the shadow of death or more to the credit of the courts This keeping of murderers and as- massins a year or two after conviction to fatten and Christianize them before execution is more farcical than sensi- Ble, The military way of doing, things fs speedy, satistying and effective Movements in the name of justice would lose nothing by belng swifter and surer, SOCIAL LIFE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

The fact that bulk 15 gtyle, made too plain In headgear to be de- nied, and the criticism of the size of the ladies’ hats—the notoriety of them ~=bas only served to make them more popular than ever. The Merry Widow bt was nothing compared to the chopping-tray and tub style bats of today—what was in 1808 all brim has now- got to be all crown—and more, 19!

Of course, when the truth is told, it is none of a man’s busi whether his wife's hat i3 a nightmare, or a dream of a more pleasing nature; and as & fellow editor takes occaslon to remark, “much may be torgiven a bat if It sults the face and iigure of the owner, whether it fits the head or zot.” News of a flve-hundred-button gown malkes the man of all work wonder how he can get his wife's dress buttoned up in time for meeting, or to catch &n early morning train.

The movement to open the Connecticut to longer nav- igation than is now possible is looked upon as an entirely new enterprise and it is forgotten that once the proposi- tion to tunnel through the mountains was not for the purpose of a rallroad but to accommodate a Y way to connect Boston with the Hud- son. “At a recent club meeting in Turn- ers Falls an Interesting. historl paper was read on ‘Early Local Navi- gation,’ describing the canal, which was built and controlled by a com- pany known as ‘The proprletors of the upper locks and canal on the Connec- ticut river in the county of Hamp- shire. The cana] began nearly at the mouth of the Deerfield river at Mon- tague City. There were numerous locks along its course. In 1831 the Con~ necticut River Steamboat company be~ gan business and established a through line of flatboats from Hartford, Coma., to Wells River, Vt. These were towed by ‘tugs. “In 1840 the business fell ten years later it went Into a Matal de- cline. In 1866 the Turners com- pany purchased the rights of the com. panies that had carried on the busi- ness. It is a renewal of this under modern conditions that the reopening of the Connecticut 10 navigation would mean.” AMBASSADOR TO ENGLAND, It is not likely that Prestdent Eliot of Harvard unfversity will be appoint- ed as ambassador to the court of St. James, on account of his age, although the fitness of the appointment is wide- ly recognized; and there would be no complaint should it be offered and he felt equal to assuming the dutles, for this country really needs a different ilvpe of man for ambassadors to offset the wrong impression of Ameriea and Americans caused by the lavish ex- penditure of money and the giving of princely entertainments by the use of private wealth. A critic of the con- duet of these ambassadorships of late fs right when he says: “The posi- tion s too important to be filled by a man whose wealth is his chief claim. It is also too exalted to be cheapened by an ostentatiousness in entertaine | ment which lays itself open to the charge of being vulgar. With Mr. El- ot in the office, not only would former republiean simplicity be restored, but with it the best traditions of Ameri. can patriotism and scholarship.” EDITORIAL NOTES.

Since none of the speakers of that time use the sobriquet, it is falr to presume that it was new. Henry Ward Beecher has been accredited with originating the nickname which stuck. The rose was Beecher's favorite flower,-and a story has been told of his paying ko much attention to a favorite rose that Mrs. Beecher in a jealous moment cut it off and threw it away. He did not so call it becanse of the -popularity of rose culture here, but it was his ideal rural New England city; it took his fancy as the rose bad taken it long before. It is told of him that when he stood beneath the Lorengo Dow elm, at Norwich Town, that he emotlonally embraced the great tree and exclaim- ed: “It seems as if I should call thee brother.” Henry Ward Beecher was capable of seeing here “The Rose of ew England" and we all recognize the beauty and fitness of the name.

At a recent performance two big-millinered women near me didn’t geem to know what the -‘cture meant and an irate patron sitting next tc me called the janitor and told him to order the jadles to take their hats off. He was apparently a married man, for he declined to do it, and satd: “I'l let out that' Job to you!™ e knew that “when a woman will she will, you may denpend on't, and when she won't won't, ' and there's the end on’t.” The complainant looked at his wife inquiringly, but she did not ad- vise him to undertake that extra-haz- ardous service and these two women with blg hats were obstructing the view and laughing just as if they were obeying the rules.
