The New Jersey delegation to the Republican National Convention will support (Governor Fort, of this State, for the vice-presidency. ttis under stood to be the plan of the traders to have the state convention indorse him for the place and the New Jersey delegates wili conduct an enthusiastic canvass for hitn. Both United States Senators are earnestiy in favor of Governor Fort for second place on the ticket and their is reason tobelieve that he wiil be acceptable to Presi dent Rooseveit. The Taft managers expeot good re sults from the Secretary's appearance at the Chamber of Commerce banquet at Trenton on March 23. They also expect that the candidacy of Gover nor Fort'for the vice presidency wiii be calcuiated to foster a strong Taft sentiment tn Jersey. It is believed that with Governor Fort as the favorite of the Taft back ers for the vice-presidency New Jer sey can be depended upon to cast iter vote for Mr. Taft at Chicago. It is admitted by the New Jersey leaders that if the governor sees at to exercise his influence he can select a Taft del egation frotu New Jersey. Senator Crane, of Massachusetts, had a tong conference recently with President Rooseveit, which hasstart ed many rumors. Senator Crane is known to be op dosed to Secretary Taft and in fav or of uninstrueted deiegates from Massachusetts to the Republican Nat ionai Convention. Taft foiiowers in Massachusetts are demanding in structions for.Taft his name is being mentioned by the people as chairman of the Republican Nationai Commit tee, in which event he wouid manage the campaign. JERSEY COAST WATERWAY. State Senator Wilson has presented to Governor Fort tor his approve) the draft of a biii that appropriates $!00, 0C0 or .more for the creating of the in iand waterways.

BhCfM Monday bight. j?o project before the present ses sion of the Legi^iature is engrossing the attention of the South Jersey Senators and Assembtymen as much as the scheme to deepen the inland waterways which paraiieithe Atiantic coast from Bay Head to. Cape May. These two points are now con nected by a zigzag channei through bays, inlets and other water oourses. by means of which smait craft can make their way at high tide. In some places the present depth when the tide is low is two feet or iess the shortest avaiiabie inside water route between Cape May and Bay Head is 117 miies. While the proposed waterway wouid stimnlate commerce, its chief vaiue wouid be for pieasure travei and intercommunication between the many resorts upon the sea and bay shores. It wouid iead to the estab iishment of new and usefui routes of travei bv steam and power boats. Henry B. Kummel, State Geolo gist, has just reported to the Legis iature the resuit's of a survey and es timate of the cost of achanneiofthe minimum depth ofeightand ten feet respectiveiy, and width of fifty feet, in compliance with an act passed at the iast sessiou. He finds that the probabte total cost of an eight foot channet would be $389.4)6. inoiuding $331,287 for dredging for which would cost $419, 987. The measure, which is the first step foiiowiug the compietion of the survey provides for the appointment by the Governor of a commissioner of iuiand waterways, who shaii be aiiowed such oterioai force and assistants as may be necessary. The South Jersey tegislators wiii ask for an appropriation of $tt)0,000 to begin the deepening aud widening of the channei.

The net resuits of poiice activity was the rounding up of nine suspects. A man who gave his name as Harry Gold stein and who is said to be an agent of the Edelstadt society, an anarchistic organization, was taken into custody whiie distributing handbiils of a rabid anarchistic nature. Two other suspects, whose names were withheld, were ar rested and subjected to a rigid exami nation at the Chicago city haii. An important arrest was that of Isa dore Maron, who for a time was be lieved to be the "curly haired" com panion of Lazarus Averbuch, the wouid be assassin. Big Anarchist Ptot. That Lazars us Averbuch in attempt ing to assassinate Chief of Poiice Ship py carried out a coMpSHS!fSwd"Sn'n-ugted to him by a group of Chicago anarch ists was declared by Assistant Chief of Police Scheuttier to have been proved beyond a doubt.

The anarchist, Laza rus Averbuch, a young Russian, of 218 Washburne avenue, was shot through the right tempie and instantiy kiiied by Chief Shippy.

The attack is beiieved to have been the ciimax of Chief Shippy's work in driving utemijbf-s of the Biack Hand from the city. The assassin was dressed as a inborer.

Frank De Witt Talmage. D. D. Los Angeles, Cat., March 1.—That we thould make no compromise with evil and should be bold and outspoken In our stand against sin, no matter how much we may love the sinner. Is the lesson of this sermon, the text for which Is taken from I Samuel xvi, 1, "How long wilt thou mourn for Saul?" Who has not read with thrilling In terest Sir Walter Scott's story of Jeanle Deans? I was much Interested in learning that the heroine of that story was a real character, a girl who lies burled near Dumfries, on whose tomb stone Is an epitaph written by Scott himself. It Is Impossible to refrain from tears as we read the story. The girl, whose life lB wrapped up In that of her young sister, gives evidence against her that convicts her of a cap ital offense and then walks all the way to London to obtain a pardon for her. The brave girl could not tell a lie even to save her sister from a shameful death, but could undergo hardship to deliver her. That Is heroism, the hero ism of a One soul that loved Intensely, but feared to sin. Few of us could have done a thing so heroic. We try to shield our loved ones. We shrink from exposing them. We sometimes shrink even from reproving them lest we cause them pain. We try to shield tl^elr wrongdoings even rues see a foolish mother her husband the wrong prodigal son because she is afraid the father might punish the boy. It was In this way that Samuel clung to his protege, Saul. Most of us think of Samuel as a stern faced, grim vis aged mentor to the young king. We picture him standing before the offend er Implacable as a goddess of justice with blinded eyes holding high the scales and ready without a particle of personal regret to execute the sentence when the scales Indicate guilt. But underneath this stern set, Iron muscled countenance of Samuel was a heart of deep, tender, faithful love. Though he muBt denounce Saul's sins, he could not cease to love Saul. His heart seem ed to cling to Saul, and he would have been glad, had It been right, to cover up Saul's misdeeds. Thus In the text the Lord dnds the old prophet and says practically this: "Samuel, how long are you going to grieve for Saul? He has done wrong. Are you going to continue to stay at home and grieve? Are you not going forth to try to rec tify the evil Saul has done? Gome, Samuel, be a man. Be brave and true to your nobler and better self. Come, I have selected another king for Is rael." As God came to Samuel In times of old God Is coming to us and bidding us refrain from useless grief. and cover up as you spmeh doings of her 3aulaBomK<ng. In the Brat place yon must remember that Saul was a handsome man. He was not only a king by election, but he was one of those wonderful men who are described as every Inch kings because of their physical pres ence. He was not only tall, standing head and shoulders above all his com panions, but he was perfectly formed. And his face In its beauty must have looked like the features chiseled out of marble by Phidias to form the beauti ful countenances of Greek gods. His bearing when he first came before Samuel was so humble and pure that, even in the eyes of the stem faced prophet, nothing was to be criticised, nothing was to be apprehended. Saul had the refinement In his make up which came from a cultured life. He was the son of one of the repre sentative men of his tribe. His blood was of the best. He walked with the conscious gait of one well bom, who was a natural leader among men. His ancestors for generations had been great men. If you turn to the record, you can read these words: "Now, there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite. a mighty man of power. And he had a son whose name was Haul, a choice young man and goodly, and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person to look npon than he. From his shoul ders and npward he was higher than any of the people." Can you not see Saul moving along, the cynosure of all eyes? Cannot you see him, handsome ga an Apollo Belvedere? Was it any .'-ft'"' wonSer Suit SamueTIEe prophet should love Mm and hate to give htm up? It is so easy to excuse the sins of a man and a woman when they are beautiful and graceful. But because Saui, the handsome man, was a sinner, was that any reason why his sins should not be condemned by God just as much as if he was an ugiy dwarf Mary, Queen of Scots. Take, for instance, the iife of Mary, queen of Scots. There is a iot of maudlin sentimentality expended over that sinful life. But was not John Knox right when he used to stand up in the Scottish pulpit and denounce her profligacies until that beautiful queen would drive the naiis into the palm of her hand and her teeth into her lips until the blood came? And should not scores and hundreds of our women to day in social life be denounced by some modem John Knox if they are ruining the lives of men by the charm and attraction of their pretty faces? When the great day of judgment comes it will be found that many of the sins of.this day which we look upon as triv [a) wiii be catalogued as among the worst of Btns in God's sight. And there is no sin, I beiieve, which wiii be more condemned than that sin so often prac ticed by women with pretty faces, which is caiied the sin of Qirtation—a sin which sometimes not only destroys ail a man's true appreciation of a wo man's honor, but wiii sometimes send a man into a drunkard's grave and into a suicide's eternity. Shail the worid honor the handsome face of Lord Byron when one reaitzes to what base uses he put that hand some face? If you wouid read one of the viiest and the most disgusting reve [ations of depravity, aii that you have I to do is to turn the pages of "Chttde Haroid," which is beiieved to be an autobiography, and know what Eng iand's handsome poet was abie to ac I comptish for the degradation of the human race. Oh, men and women, be cause sin is masked behind a beautifui countenance, remember it does not cease to be sin. God biasts the sin of a handsome Saui, and he wiii biast the sins of our modem iecherous and adui terous Lotharios as weii. Pity Samuei for ciinging to the handsome Saui if you wiii, but do not condemn him un iess you condemn aii the men and wo men who make excuses for the modem Don Juans because of their charm or their beauty. Friends Who Are Wrong. I know it is hard to turn our backs upon some friends when we know they are doing wrong. I know that some of those friends wteid a powerfu) inCu ence over our lives. There is a breezi ness, a freshness, an originaiity about some of them that holds us to them like a magnet. We know, furthermore, that some of those wicked friends iove us with a devoted iove, but if we do not break away from them in time their sins wiii corrupt proverb which say^h'PT a man preaches what he does not beiieve, after awhiie he beiieves what he preaches." That is true, but another fact is aiso true. If you make a bosom friend out of one who is iiving contrary to aii that you beiieve to be right, after awhiie you wiii begin to sin as he sins and do as he does. You cannot systematicaiiy as sociate with an evii minded person and not in time become evii minded your seif. And the more fascinating the friend the quicker your own spirituai min. What right have you to' go wtth a man or a woman who wii! teii an im morai story? And I wouid wam my hearers of both sexes on this subject, for there are certain women who are just as shameiess in iistening to such stories as are some men. What right have you to go with men who are loose in their morais or with those who make tight of the purity of the home? What right have you to make bosom com panions out of those who do not honor the house of God and ai! that the house of God stands for? What right have you to yoke yourseif in business part nership with a man whom you have to watch every moment for fear he wiii bring a scandai and a disgrace on the name of the firm? Did your Christian father and mother ever go with such associates as you aeiect for your daily companions? Wouid you be willing to have your companions make the coarse remarks before your wife or children which they often iaughingly make be fore you? Either you must lift your daily companions up to your moral and spiritual ievei or else they wiil drag you down to theirs, and there is no ex ception to the rule. Have you a right to associate with sinners and expect to escape becoming in time a companion with them in their sins? The Bands of Authority. But there was another reason why Samuei ciung to the royai apostate. Saul was a king. He had been anoint ed by the order of the Lord God Ai mighty. He had been selected from ail the tribes to rule over Israel. There was a certain sanctity about him. Of course he had proved false to his trust, but stiii Saul was king. As king the peopie had been taught to do him reverence. The hardest bands to break are the bands of regal authority. We are ready to send the common thief to the penitentiary, but we hate to im peach the honesty *f those who have been piaced over us in properly con stituted authority. And yet when the king does wrong should he not suffer? When the president of the United States or a icgisiator or a governor or a mayor does wrong, shouid he not also suffer? And when wickedness and cor ruption fasten themselves upon our political life shouid we not by the grace of God cast off those sins and also cast off those politicians who are responsibie for the moral obliquity? j I had this truth most wonderfully I portrayed before me some time ago when. i heard Samuel P. Pearson,, ad-! dressing a great popular meeting In Chicago. Mr. Pearson had been elect ed a few months before sheriff of Port land, Me. Although Maine was a "dry" state, there were many "speak easies" being run on the sly. The people of Maine's capital said those places could not be shut up, but Mr. Pearson said, "Elect me your sheriff and In six weeks there will not be a speak easy In all the county." The people took him at his word. He shut up those speak easies so quickly that the sa loon keepers did not have time to ship their beer and whisky out of town, but had to empty the barrels in the gutter and let their poisonous liquors ran away Into the sewers, where they be longed. Well, of course Pearson's name was heralded from the Atlantic to the Pacific and praised by all good people. He was Invited to address a ministers' mass meeting In Chicago, and there he told us how he became a Prohibition ist and why he was so bitter against the other two political parties. Shertff Pearson's Story. This was his story, as I remember it When Pearson was a young man, there was an election going on in Portland. Be stood in line waiting to cast his vote for a certain candidate. Ahead of him he saw a disreputable saloon beeper. He accosted him and said: "Heilo, So-and-so! For whom are yon going to vote?" Strange to say, Mr. Pearson found ont that this disreputa ble saioon keeper was going to vote for the same candidate that he (Pearson) was supporting. Behind him he saw a notorious libertine, gambler and drunk ard. Mr. Pearson asked him whom he was going to vote for, and, strange to say, he found out that this libertine and drunkard wanted the same man elected as he (Pearson) was going to vote for. Then Mr. Pearson stopped and soliloquized: "Do I desire the same men to govern this city that those cor rupt men want? Am I going to travel with the same crowd they run with? No; I am responsible to God and my country for the actions of the men whom I help to elect to office. You had better either purify your party and kick these dissolute members of society out or else help start a new party which these men will condemn.^ What they want you don't. And what you should want these men do not want." There Is the whoie question of political life in a nutshell. Now, I care not how briiliant Saul may be when he Is king. I care not to which political party he belongs, but this is what you should want to know: Whom is Saul serving? What kind of men wish him to be elected to the throne? Is this Saul who is seeking of fice today prepared to fight the saloon? Does this Saul promise to obiiterate the gambling heils of the city? Does he promise to close up the dens of in famy? Does he want the Bible in the public schools? Is he the friend or the foe of the dissolute members of the community? With whom is he trait/ ing*? Do you elect Saul to a position of' political life and keep him there mere ly because he is brilliant of tongue and overlook the fact that he is rotten in morals? That Is the question Samuel had to answer. And that is the reason God is hurling the rebuke of my text at the prophet of old, as well as at some of us today: "How long wilt thou mourn for Saul? How long? How iong?" His Politics! Protege. nut til ere was Hun anotuer munuu why Samuel clung to thla recreant king. Saul was Samuel's political pro tege. Samuel was the Instrument In God's hands chosen to make him king. Samuel lifted the anointing horn to pour the sacred oil upon Saul's head, and In one sense Samuel looked upon him as a loving parent sometimes looks upon the erring deeds of a favorite child. He tried to shield him and pro tect him and to ward off his coming doom. And when Samuel did this he was like Eli. He only hastened the coming tragedy of this handsome king. Oh, it is an awful thing to see a fa ther and mother shutting their eyes to the sins of a child! I almost tremble when I speak upon this. Yet I am firmly convinced that many young men and women have gone to destruction in the past not because their parents have been too strict, but too lenient with the self evident shortcomings of their children. There is only one way to deal with the sins of children, and that is to erad icate them while they are young. And the more insignificant those sins seem to be if let alone the more surely they will destroy the temporal and spiritual life of the child. Do you see that mag nidcent oak tree growing there on the hillside? Yes, it is a beauty. It has lifted Itself like a mighty giant. No tornado is strong enough to biow that tree down. It has struck its roots clear down to the solid rock. "But," you ask, "what are those strange looking vines crawling up the sides of that tree?" Then you come nearer and say: "Why, they are the vines of the wild grapes. See how fine they are! I must take some home to the children." "Ah," I say, "is that j so? Is that tree covered with the grapevines? Then when you are eat ing the wild grapes you are eating the lifeblood of the tree." If you wiil carefully examine the stems of the wild grapevine, you will find them Oiled with a lot of rootlike suckers. These suckers fasten themselves into the tree and draw the life out of the tree, and, give them time, like all vam pire ivies, they will grow bigger and bigger. Then the suckers will sink deeper and deeper Into the tree untii after awhile that mighty tree will droop and die. Those few wild grapes may be very appetizing to your palate. They are very costly when they kill a tree to produce a few bunches of fruit. Such are the bitter vampire sins of the child. It may not seem to be much when the child ateala the candy after you Have forbld&en him to have 1<E It may not seem to be much when a child teiis you a falsehood. It may not seem to be much when a chiid pre-. tends to go to school when he Is going skating. It may not seem to be much when a schoolboy commences to smoke cigarettes and drink beer. It may not seem to be much when the boy refuses to go to Sunday school or to church. These are little things In a child's life. But, though the wild grapes are appe tizing, remember these little sins are the vampires sucking away the child's spiritual life. That fruit Is made out of the lifeblood of the child's spiritual existence. Beware, parent, how you, like Samuel, allow the sins of Saul to develop unrebuked. j No One Like Saul. But. lastly. I think Samuel grieved for Saul because he said: "If Saul falls, who can make a success? Why, In all Israel there is not another like him. He Is the handsomest and the best. What shall we do? What shall we do?' But God said: "Fear not, Samuel. I will raise up another. Take thy anointing hom and go where I tell thee. David will do for me what Saul has failed to do." So when we and a {great man go astray we say: "Oh, what shail we do? What shall we do?' But God will bring us another. Fear not. Fear not. Only follow God and he will bring the right man to thee. If God anoints a man, then It is God's work, and we have only to do his will. And Is It not a blessed thought that no one Is essential to the Lord's work? God Is always able to send some one to take the vacant place. Oh, how of ten we think we are necessary to the -church or society! We say, "What will the home do without us?" or "What will the church do without us?" or "Whatwlli our business do without us?" Kever fear, friend. When the time of -our going is at hand, God will always have another to take our place. There fore does it not behoove us to do our work so well that when the time of cur departure is at hand our successors win ilnd the foundations well laid for bunding the superstructure? God can eend another minister to follow us In the pulpit. He wiil send another teach er to follow us In the Sunday school. He will send another person to bless our loved ones in the home. May we today be like David, when he sur rendered his throne to Solomon, rather than like sinful Saul, who had to be pushed aside by the divine hand to make room for David. Use us, O God! Use us as thou didst thy sweet slnget of Israel! Use us. Master, and use us now! [Copyright. 1908, by Louis Kiopsch.] Father John's Cruel Gifts. Two stories have been to!d of Father John by an English lady who for a number of years was at the Russian bourt In one case Father John heated 'paeef Tsis Princess B,, a ghrJ of fcw teen, whom ail the doctors had given up. The cure, too, was permanent, since It was performed nearly twenty years ago, and the princess is now mar ried and the mother of several chil dren. In the other case a young man, whose doctor pronounced him suffering from an lncurabie heart disease, travei ed a long distance to be healed by Fa ther John. The father said that ali he could do for him was to give him one present to take away with him and to send him another by post to his home, neither of which was to be opened till a certain date. He then prayed with the poor sufferer and sent him away. The appointed day arrived, and with It the parcel which Ivns to come by post. He found it and found corpse candles inside. He opened then that which he had brought back with hlth and found a shroud Inside. The wretched youth died at once of the shock —London P. T. O. Fair Decent of 3andy.

A Lazy Liver May be only a tired liver, or a starved liver. It wonld be a stupid as well as savage thing to beat a weary or starved man because he lagged In his work. 80 In treating the lagging, torpid liver It is a great mistake to lash It with strong drastic drugs. A torpid liver Is but an Indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled body whose organs are weary with over work. Start with the stomach and allied organs of digestion and nutrition. Put them In working order and see how quickly your liver will become active. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has made many marvelous cures of "liver trouble by Its wonderful control of the organs of digestion and. nutrition. It re stores the normal activity of the stomach, fncreases the secretions of the blood-mak fng glands, cleanses the system from poi sonous accumulations, and so relieves the liver of the burdens Imposed upon it by the defection of other organs. !f you have bitter or bad these In the morn ing. pooror/Varlable appetite, coated tongue, tout breath, constipated or irregular bowels, feel weak, easlljt tired.Respondent, freunent headaches, patn dr dlstresnfn "atnal! of back." gnawtng or dlswessed feet^ur !rf stomach, perhaps nausea.'Mh^JP'*\r "Mings" In throat after eating, and kindred symptoms of weak atomach and torpid livaR ho th^dl Clne will relieve you more promottEorlEu -uiMtAacF part of tne aoove aymptoms will bp present at one time and yet point to torpid liver or biliousness and weak stomach.

If only among the children of Israel there could have been found some skilied worker in goid who could have Blied these royal teeth, they might have been allowed to depart in peace.

Dr. Pierce's Holden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich biood, and thereby t he nerves are property nourished and at) the organs of the body are run as smoothiy as machinery which runs in oil. In this way you fee! clean, strong and strenuous—you are toned up and invigorated, and you are good for a whole iot of physical or mentai work. Best of ail, the strength and increase in vitality and health are lasting. The troubie with most tonics and medicines which have a !arge boom ing sale for a short time, is that they are largely composed of alcohol hold ing the drugs iu solution. This aico hol shrinks up the red biood cor puscles, and in the long run greatly injures the system. One may feel ex hilarated and better for the time be ing, yet in the end weakened and with vitality dec eased. Dr. Pierce's&old en Medical Discovery contains no al cohol. Every bottle of it bears upon its wrapper The Badge of Honesty, in a full list of ail its several ingred ients. For the druggist to offer you something he oiaims is "just as good" is to insult your intelligence. Invalids' Rooms tn Church.

The attendance was about equaiiy divided between the ad vocates and opponents of the biti, and Chairman Moxon of the committee hud much didcuity in repressing the enthu siasm of the spectators during the speeches. Rev. Charies L. Mead ot the Newark conference of the Metho dist Episcopal church, who is president of the Antisaioon league in New Jer sey, made the opening address. He said the biii stood for home rule and ruie by the majority of the peopie to decide whether or not this trade shail be reguiated in a manner suitabie to the wiii of the peopie. Many othet clergymen spoke in favor of the mens ure. Chnndlerw.Riker. former prosecu tor of Essex county, was the first speaker opposing the btii. He charged hret that the advocates Of the btii sitnpiy wanted to introduce prohibition into New Jersey and cited statistics to bear but his contention that prohibi tion was a faiiure. Mr. Riker stirred up a hornets' nest among the advo cates of the biii by quoting from a speech of Abraham Lincoln in which Mr. Lincoln had declared that prohibi tion was an unwarranted interference with persona] liberty. Rev. E. A. Wasson, an Episcopal clergyman of Newark, followed Mr. Riker in opposing the biii and said that the advocates of the blli masquer aded under the banner of home rule when it served their purpose. Several ether clergymen opposed the biii. The speech of Governor Hanty of In diana was greeted with prolonged ap plause and waving of handkerchiefs. He prefaced his address with the re marks that the question was not only a local one in New Jeraey, but it is paramount throughout the nation, if not the world. The Hght, he said, was not a temporary os transient one, but waa just beginning, and the nation wonld be shaken before it was over. Ho argued earnestly in favor of the biii.

Cleveland, O., March 6.—Investiga tion of the ruins of the burned school house at North Collinwood. ten miles east of this city, together with the re phrts of scores of missing children ren dered by grief stricken parents, show; that the number of littie victims of hrt and panic Is much greater than was al Brst reported.

The schooi contained between 310 and 323 pupiis, and of this entire number oniy about eighty are known to have ieft the buiiding unhurt. It wiii be several days before the actuai number of kitied is known, as the ruins may stiii con tain other bodies, and the ^tt ff'ataii "Mea may be increased by a number ot deaths among the chiidren who are mow lying in the hospitais hovering be tween itfe and death. Two teachers tnet death trying to save their charges. The schooihouse was of brick, two stories and an attic in height. The number of pupils was more than nor mally large, and the smaiier chiidren had been piaced in the upper part of the buiiding. There was but one 8re escape, and that was in the rear of the buiiding. There were two stairways. *ne leading to a door in front and the other to a door in the rear. Both of these doors opened inward, and it is said that the rear door was iocked as ftveli. Teachers Try to Save Littie Ones. When the Carnes were discovered, the teachers, who throughout seem to nave acted with courage and seif pos session and to have struggied heroicai ly for the safety of their pupiis, mar shaied the iittie ones into eoiumn fot the "Cre driii," which they had often practiced. Unfortunately the line of march in this exercise had atways ied to the front door, and the chtidren had not been trained to seek any other exit. The fatni tire came from a furnace sit uated directiy under this part of the buiiding. When the chiidren reached the foot of the stairs they found the Hames eiose upon them and so swift a rush was made for the door that in an in stant a tightiy packed mass of chii dren was piied up against it. Mrom that second none of those who were upon any portion of the first tiight of stairs had a chance for their iives. The chiidren at the foot of the stairs attempted to fight their way hack to the door above, white those who were coming down shoved them merciiess !y back into the fiames beiow. In an instant there was a frightfui panic, with 200 of the pupiiB fighting for their iives. Most of those who were kiiied died here. The greater part of those who escaped managed to turn back and reached the Hre escapes and the windows in the rear. Oniy Heap of Bodies Left. What happened at the foot of that 8rat Bight of stairs wiil never be known, for aii of those who were caught in the fnii fury of the panic were kiiied. After the Hames had died away, however, a huge heap of iittie bodies burned by the are and trampled into things of horror toid the taie as weii as anybody need to know it.

Among these iatter men was Waiiace I'pton. whw reached the budding short ly after the front door had caved in and dtsrMspd to the horror stricken crowd the awful scenes that had been enacted there. Just tn front of Up ton's eyes was his own ten-year-oid daughter, heipiess in the crush, bad ly burned and trampieci upon, but stiii aiive.

The dames spread with such terrific rapidity that within thirty minutes from tile time the 8re was discovered the schooihouse was nothing but a few blackened wads surrounding a cedar Sited with corpses and debris. The firemen dashed into the blazing wreckage and with rakes, forks, shov els and their bare bands worked in the most frantic manner with the hope of saving a fe% more iives. They were unsuceessfui. for none was taken aiive from the ruins after the doors coi iapsed. Fragments of incinerated iimbs, skuds and bones were found aimost at every turn. The great majority of the iittie bodies that were taken from the ruins were burned beyond aii possible recognition. And it is no smati part of the sorrow which is bearing down the peopie of North Codinwood that positive identifi cation of many of the children wiii never be made. Teacher'* Narrow Escape. One of the teachers, Mtss Peart Lynn, narrowiy escaped death. She was* car ried toward the rear entrance by the rush of the panic stricken puptis and feii at the bottom of the stairs, with numbers of the chiidren on top of her. She iay there unabie to rise because of the weight of the bodies upon her. She was dragged from the mass of dead chiidren just in time to save her own iife. One of the scenes of supreme hor ror that attended the fire occurred at the rear doorway of the building be fore the Bremen Arrived. This door, iike the one in front, opened inward, and it was iocked. The chiidren were piied up high against it. and when it finaiiy was broken down by their weight and by the fire that had part iy burned and weakened it the women who had gathered outside saw before them a mass of white faces and strug giing bodies. The ti antes swept over the aisie white the women stood heip iess, unabie to tend a hand to aid the chiidren. Many of the women were unabie to withstand the sight and dropped fainting to the ground. The fire department was iate in reaching the budding, and when it came the apparatus wits found to be inadequate. Chitd Die* Before Mother's Face. Among those who sought vainiy through the morgue for their chii dren was Mrs. John Phiiiis of Popiar street, whose dfteen-year-oid daugh ter is among the dead. Her attention was caiied to the fire by her four year-oid son, who caHed her to come to the window "and see the chiidren piaying on the fire escape." Mrs. Phiiiis ran to the schooihouse and found her daughter among those pen ned in around the front door. She took hoid of her hands, but couid not puii her out.

THE RULE OF THE REVOLVER.! Life !n the Wiid Days When Gun Ptayt Occasioned Littte Comment, Ye) When There Was Aiways Safety ir Leaving it to the Crowd." The bold, reckless life of the frontle! of the middie years of the nineteenth century and iater has been often re caiied by the stories of desperadoes and bad men, but in the birth and growth of the frontier cities is a unique phase of American civic genius which has been iittie dwett upon. Most of the cities of the fas^wesi have hovered ciose about the gather ings of hardy miners as they came ot went on a feverish search for goid. In forty-nine 80.000 men from aii parte of the world reached the El Doradc of California. Some traveled 2,00C miies overiand; others went far around by rnnama or Cape Horn. In dfty nine 100,000 goid seekers stampeded wiidiy across the sunburnt piains oi Coiorado. Only 40,000 stayed the yeat through. Of ilke kind, aithough oi smailer proportions, were ali the pil grimages that are more or less respon sible for the cities of the west, the finding of a streak of magic yellow, its story leaking out and growing, the glimpse of nuggets and spec! mens and then the grand, senseless rush to the Land of Oet-Rlch-Quick. Thousands of daring spirits were drawn by the yellow loadstone, intent on nothing but the accumulation of weaith. Then necessity produced some weird assembiages of tents, shanties and iog cabins, many of which grew into cities. Often fuil grown towns sprang up in a few months. i?ar from any state or territorial government and composed of a conglomerated herd of excited men, none of whom had time for civic affairs, these embryo cities ex isted and grew under conditions that were unique and extremely wild. Onr forefathers ianoea on tne easr ern coast fun of reiigtous zeai and a desire for freedom of thought and iife. Their leaders and iaw came with them. They prayed and lived communisticai iy as long as they couid, then in creased, expanded and developed into a nation. But the goid discoveries of Catifomia, Nevada, Coiorado and Mon tana brought thousands of independ ent men to the wilderness who were fuli of the hunger for goid, not homes; who had no leaders, no laws to which they couid appeai and nothing to bind them together. Then the leaders came out of the crowd, and the iaw grew as it was needed. !t was otiiy after ,f' time that any of these men came to consider remaining permanentiy tathe country, and it was these venturesome buiiders who developed the newer part of our nation. From the nature of things, with so much at stake among such hard iiving men, there were plenty of fights and disputes. There being no authority to which to appeai, differences were set tied between man and man. A six shooter was the greatest heip a man couid get toward a physical superior ity over other men, and so everybody carried a "gun" and knew how to use it. The trigger Bnger grew nimbie with practice, and there deveioped a condition where frequent kiiiings and shootings occasioned iittie comment or criticism, where men were aimost in different to the spitting of biood and looked death square in the face with a nonchalance that is hardly conceiv able now. Shooting affrays yere the froth of a very strong brew of the bor der iife, and they put a settlement to questions quickly and dehniteiy. If when the smoke cleared away some good man lay biting the dust, his iight had gone out according to the code of the time, fierce and barbarous as codes must be when man Brst struggies with nature. And yet tnere was always surety tn "leaving it to t$e crowd." The gener al sentiment of the community was very partial to fairness and honesty during the eariy days of most border towns. There were no locks or keys, almost any man's credit was good to any amonnt, and stores and provisions couid lay untouched for months in whoiiy unguarded places. It was the natural, frank honesty of the virgin west and a veritable paradise for thieves and criminals. And they came, hordes of murdering, plundering adventurers who knew no code of morals or chivalry, and resorted to anything to accomplish their ends. They found plunder rich, crime easy and escape still easier and, drifting all over the country, levied tribute from each new camp as It sprang into being. Often these men were in such a ma jority that a man who believed in hon esty and justice was a man Indeed if he had the courage to bach Ms ideals. But there were such men, men ss God meant men to be, fuil of the sense of right and the atness of things and un afraid. They stepped right into the opening and tackled some of the cuse edast crowds in Christendom, teaching a wholesome respect for "life, liberty jtnd the pursuit of happiness" to hunches of drinking, blasphemous and nabsmasstf! tempers. The gun fight ings iynehings and wanton spittings of Mood that spiced the histories of the time may have been very cioee to sav agery. but they serve now to deepen the respect we mast have for men who hsnwnssil lew and order on each condi Hons.--Outing Mega tine.

A pleasing mode of this order is here il lustrated (667-714). The corset cover is made with the front fulness gathered to a round yoke, which affords a good place for a simple design in hand em broidery. The drawers are cut on ex cellent lines, and being circular in shape, provide the necessary fulness without extra bulk. French cambric, with lace, hand embroidery and ribbon run beading, is represented, but sev eral materials, such as nainsook, lawn and longcloth are adaptable, and any preferred mode of decoration may be used.

To avoid dciay, do not fati to state sisc of pattern desired, and bo sore to March Winds and the Complexion! woman who treats her complex ion at home is her lack of per severance. The woman with a fat purse patronizes a beauty parlor and pays someone to persevere for her. Nine out of ten cases she couid accomplish the same result at home wijth simple remedies if only she would spend a little more time regularly before her own toilet table. Do not Imagine that spasmodic applications of remedies will bring good results. It is the patient, regu lar application that, in due time, will bear fruit. At this season of the year when much suffering is caused by the blus tering winds and the dust that is al most ground into the skin by force of these dreaded March breezes, an ounce of prevention is worth more than the proverbial pound of cure. Before go ing out, some healing cream should be rubbed into the skin, then a pure hygienic powder should be dusted over the face. In cold weather scented soap should never be used. It is not good for the skin at any season of the year, hut especially harmful just now. Al ways bathe the face in warm water for cleansing purposes, dash with cold water and dry thoroughly before go ing out. The woman with oiiy skin is attuctea lust now with many blackheads, as the result of the dust-laden breezes. The oily glands in her face seem to attract particles of dust and dirt. Any attempt to expel these blackheads with a needie is irritating to the akin and often bruises it. leaving a scar. On the toilet tabte of every woman should be found a comodone extractor for the purpose of expelling contents of pim ples. Keep the skin clean by the con stant use of the complexion brush and bathe the face morning and night with sweet cream. This will feed the skin and at the same time soften it so that the blackheads w))i yield up their con tents more easily. If the skin has become tanned from the spring winds, try this simple home made whitener: Take two tablespoon fuls of oatmeal, and boll it in a quart of water for ten minutes. Cool and strain off the liquor. Add to it the juice of one large lemon or two small ones, and a dessert spoon of'pureaico hbl. Rathe the face with this with a soft cioth. but donot wipe it all off. Chapped lips wli! spoil the beauty of the entire face, and any locai druggist can compound the following formula, which will effect a cure in a few days: Cocoa butter, 10 grammes: castor oil. 3 grammes: oil of birch. 3 drops; ex tract of cachou. 1 gramme, essence of star-anise. 4 drops. Apply to the tips three times a day until the cure is effected. Chilblains caused from ice skating or other exposure are most painful, and are warranted to make deep wrinkles in the face. If the chilblains have not broken open, soak the feet in the hot test water you can bear, adding more hot water all the time from the kettle. It) fifteen minutes thrust the feet into very cold water, wipe dry gently and bathe with the following lotion: Aium (powdered), 14 ounce; spirits of cam phor. I drachm; cucumber juice. 2 ounces. Acute inflammation of the eyes is Beautiful Bows for Spring for Shirtwaists, Hats and Slippers fnri HE trimmings and accessories of a garment are, in these days, of vital importance. They make the costume chic or otherwise. For in stance, what is the tailored shirt waist without its perky little bow at the throat? So let us talk about these many little bows first. Each week the shops see&n to offer dozens of new va rieties, and I can find no more allur- ing way of spending a spare hour than wandering from dna shop to another, and peering into the glass cases where these neck bows are kept. Most of them can be duplicated perfectly by the home sewer. Among the newest short bows are those made of Roman striped ribbon This costs about 35 cents a yard, but it is new and that is worth much. If your shirt waist is white you can se lect some very garish colorings, such as a ribbon with yellow for a founda tion color, striped with several blues, greys, lavenders, etc. But If your blouse Is made of dark blue silk, for Instance, then your tie of Roman rib bon must have dark blue for the pre dominating color, with only rich blend ing shade# for stripes. If the ribbon quarters of a yard Is ample. These are not small but rather wide bows. The old-fashioned Windsor ties, so much worn by children, also find a place among the grown-ups finery. These ties are almost always made of surah silk, and the newest ones are embroidered at the ends in contrasting colors. I saw some very dainty Wind sor ties this week made of pa!e pink, the ends embroidered with large white silk polka dots; pale blue ones with circles feather-Btitched in corn colored silk; dark blue ones with tiny red Heur de lys, etc. Some of the new Windsor ties are very narrow, about three inches in width, with scalloped ends. Let me say that these Windsor ties, with their soft, rather flowing ends, are very becoming to a certain type of girl—not the stiff, tailor-made girl, but rather the one who wears blouses of soft, sheer materials with turn-over collars, the ethereal type of girls with fluffy hair and dreamy eyes. Quaint little bows to be worn with wash waists are made from smai! hand kerchiefs with colored borders and flowered corners. Some of these are made with just the four points of the handkerchiefs cut off on the bias at eacip corner and used to form double pointed ends—the middle bound tight ly together with a crushed piece cut from the center of the handkerchief. Others have a straight haif of the handkerchief side-pieated and finished off at the top with a bow made of the other haif. These handkerchiefs can be purchased at any department store for about 12 cents each, and one or -two of them worked into your box of neck wear will lend great variety to your shirt waist bows. Just at present plain satin and straw hats are trimmed with huge bows of wired all-over !ace and net. This is a fashion that I'do not recommend to the girl with few hats. It is an easy method of trimming a hat, indeed, so easy that the i fashion wii! become frightfully comnjpn within a month or so, especially in large cities. If you have an old he which you want to freshen up, and In not want to buy a lot of new trim y .g for it, then t n ecru lace bow. wired, will help you out. These bow have no ends; they consist of six !arj e ioops. three on each side. In connection rith ioops. !et me say that almost all of the up-to-date bows are made without ends. Sashes are not so long In the back as they were, and seem to be entirely of loops, with oc occaslonally one long end. This long end Is generally finished by tying a knot in It, and tackmg :t with needle and thread so that It will not un fasten. This method of finishing the end gives weight to It and prevents its flying out of place. Bows on evening slippers are exceed ingly smart, and can easily be made at home for almost nothing, while the smart boot shops are asking fabulous prices for them. Little choux are made of delicately tinted chifTon to match the slipper, forming a chubby bow resembling a tulip. In the center Is fastened a matching rosebud or flower of satin, and the entire orna ment is brightened up here and there with a rhinestone sewed on, giving it. for all the world, the appearance of a dewdrop. They also tell us that the smart young girls thiB summer are going to wear a one-eyelet tie in white canvas or kid. tied with broad pink or blue or lavender ribbon. With these bows you must wear a stocking match ing the ribbon, or more properly speak ing, your ribbon lacers muat match the coior of your stockings. Ayounggiri was seen the other night at an infor mal dinner in a dainty white lingerie dreas. with which ahe wore blue silk stockings and white slippers tied with a broad, stiff blue bow of groa grain ribbon, and at her sleeve were tiny bows of blue ribbon. She made a charming picture. MARY DEAN. Boiied fish! In boiling any hah. you should put enough water in a large pot to enable a fish to swim in. if it were alive. Add to this water half a cup of vinegar, a teaspoon of salt, one whole onion, one dozen whole black peppers, one blade of mace.

Formula for camphor julep has often been given in these columns, but any of my readers who have failed to see it can secure the formula by sending stamped and self-addressed envelope to me with such a request. Witch hazei, when dt iuted with half as much water, can he dropped directly into the eye. This treatment wiil relieve the burning sensation often felt in the eye after exposure to the winds. If you come in from a long, cold walk and find that you are very hoarse, dissolve a tiny piece of borax in your mouth—a piece about the size of a pea. Do not put off doing this for severai days after the hoarseness is first re marked—do it at once. As I said in the beginning, be cau tious—prevent the illness rather than cure it. It costs less in many ways, such as time, money, annoyance to yourself and your family. One of the best face powders to use during the month of March is a liquid powder, formula for which has appeared many times. It contains ingredients which are heaiing and whitening at the same time. I should be giad to furnish this formula upon receipt of stamped and self-addressed envelope. Wear stout boots, and a brown chif fon veil. Do not wear heavy leather boots in the morning and light French kid ones in the afternoon. Do not wear an old lightweight raincoat in the morning and a fur ulster in the evening. These may seem useiess "don'ts," but I assure you that it is astonishing how many women do these foolhardy things and then come home snifHing. wondering how in the world they caught cold. Manners an the Minister OUR minister. his wife and his family—have you ever thought of these as a problem in eti quette? No? Weli, perhaps you expect the minister to provide courtesy, good form and eti quette enough for both. Perhaps you belong to the large class of people who think that a minister never takes offense or gives it. But believe me, there is a special code of kindly good manners which should regulate your relations with your minister and those who iive with in his gates. How often we hear the minister, his family, his customs, his method of liv ing, his bearing and dress flippantly criticised by members of his congrega tion who are old enough to know bet ter. How often the minister's wife re gards her advent into a new and per haps more fashionable parish with positive fear and trembling, because she is so afraid that ^he will nbt do the right thing at the right moment. But how many parishioners stop to dissect their own bearing toward the minister and the minister's family? For instance, if the new banker brings his bride to town, when do you go to call upon her? At the end of two weeks? Exactly! You give her time to settle in her new home, to make that home ready for your com ing. But the minister's wife? Oh. you drop in upon her quite in formally some afternoon within a few days after her arrival. A minister's wife should always be prepared to re ceive her husband's parishioners. If you played the same trick on the banker's wife, you would apologise for coming so soon, hut you were going out of town, and you wanted to pay your respects before leaving, etc. But you do not apologize for intruding too soon upon the minister's wife, because it is your right! as a parishioner to learn as soon possible just what sort of housekeeper your new rector's wife is. new banker's wife e addition to your re eager to give the in her honor.

Show in your every word and action the deference due a minister of the church and the occasion will acquire the dignity it deserves. Never invite your minister to dinner or tea without including an invitation for his wife. You would be furious with a woman who invited your hus band to dinner and forgot that he pos sessed a wife. If your new minister establishes call ing hours, or hours when he will al ways be found at the parish house, ob serve those hours. Do not interrupt him at odd moments, when he may be writing a sermon, with some trivial request. If he is to respond to impor tant calls, he must be saved many trivialities. Do not rush to your minister or his wife with bits of gossip. Either they must sacriHce their own dignity and listen to your tale, or show you the contempt they feel for a scandal-mon ger. The observance of these few simple, common sense rules will make the coming of the new minister much more pleasant for all concerned. Just bear in mind that the minister, however Hne his calling, is yet human. Treat him and hiB as you would be treated your self. Blouse Hints The woman who designs blouses is a busy person, for the American woman demands inRnite variety in blouses. This season she will tell you that square lines are the smartest in applying trimming and shaping blouse yokes, stole effects, sleeve caps, etc. Also you will Hnd that while the elbow sleeve is used as of yore on fluffy, lace- j inset lingerie waists (the sort that' bring gray hairs to the head of the average laundress and hills to their owner), for the morning waist the long sleeve is back—and most of us are really ready to welcome it. For shirt waist suits and heavy tub waists to wear with two-piece cloth or linen suits, the sleeve must be long. This is l90H's hard and fast rule. You can take your choice between the regulation shirt sleeve with deep or narrow cuff to be worn with links, or the shaped cuff which runs almost to the elbow, which may be made of tucked material or alternate strips of material and lace Insertion. In most' of the designs shown on this page, both the long and short sleeve are given with the pattern, but the wise woman will instantly decide in favor of the !ong sleeve for morning waists. The short sleeve, thanks to a vigorous cam paign on the part of Frenchman dressmaker, is being relegated to its correct use. for evening wear, when gloves meet it at the elbow. Salmon Loaf: Drain all the oil from a large can of salmon, pick it over carefully and remove all bones. Beat together four eggs until very light, add a cup of bread crumbs, a scant cup of rich cream, and the juice of one lemon. Salt to taste and add a good dash of cayenne pepper. Mix these ingredients well together, put in baking dish, cover the dish and bake for thirty minutes in good oven. Mapic Tee Cream! Three pints of milk, one cup of granulated sugar and the yolks of live eggs well beaten. Make a custard of these Ingredients. Moisten half a pound of maple sugar and boil it until It candies, stir this into the custard, and, when oaM, add a pint of rich cream which has been whipped until very stiff, then the beaten whites of the five eggs. New Hints from Biouse Land f-r-i HE aver Age woman never thMr* of such a domain as blouse-land, and yet such a place does exist. It la located in the very heart of New York's jobbing district, on either side of the worid-famous thoroughfare, Broadway. You have to climb inter minable Rights of stairs or ride in dingy freight elevators to reach the land of a million blouses, for the dainty lingerie or tailored wash waist is made close to the clouds, in great sun shiny iofta. The biouses must be kept so clean that they wiii not require laundering before reaching the retailer, therefore the dark, gloomy sweat-shop is never chosen for their manufacture. So it happens that up there close to the clouds, above the hum and roar of city streets, the blouse-makers, like the toy-makers, toll the year round to make the American women look trim and neat In that best of modefn gar ments, the shirt waist. There you wiil find women who de sign and men who select fabrics,' and girls who feed eiectrlc sewing ma chines with miles and miles of wash fabrics, and other girls who inset lace by machine or make buttonholes by machine. In fact, there is a machine for every part of the waist and a giri for every machine, especially trained to the work. selects the fabrics, you will learn first that white is the supreme favorite for the spring and summer of 1908. Ev erything Is white and generally all white, without even so much as a sug gestion of colored stripe or figure, an.d this holds good for the most severely tailored morning blouse, and the most fluffy of lingerie waists. Checked or cross-barred materials lead in the fab ric designs, and these wear much bet ter than stripes, because stripes rot. while the cross-bar checks the break ing of threads in the stripe it crosses. The new checked or barred dimities, lawns and batistes come in a great va riety, the checks varying in size from an eighth of an inch to the inch itself, though the medium size Is by ali odds the smartest Very few piques are of fered, as madras has almost entirely superceded pique. Imported percale in white, plain, cross-barred or figured, is popular, and costs 25 cents a yard. But perhaps the most popular fabrics for shirt waists can all be bunched un der the general title of cotton voile. To be sure, the trade has a dozen fancy names, but by any name they give the same effect—an open mesh in cotton which closely copies the voile mesh in wool or slik. It launders ad mirably and gives the best efTect when trimmed with Irish lace. For the lingerie waist so dear to the summer girl, lawn, batiste and hand kerchief linen remain in favor, and diet, German and French Val. and Imi tation Irish, which washes admirably, are still in the running. A fancy for summer trimmings shows cluny com bined with French Val or French and German Val. alternating In stripes, and whllo Val. is almost invariably com bined with some other lace for trim ming, one sees very little of last sea son's combination, machine embroidery and lace.
