CHURCHES ARE FILLED WITHPRAYING PEOPLE SINCE HOS-TIUTI-

OPENED

Verneuil, Nov. 16. "It matters not,"cried the old abbe, crossing himselfbefore the gaping hole in the frontof the parish church at Verneuil."Godla eternal and by His graco we

shall survive." "

The six-inc- h shell that went

through the hole had carried the doorwith it and blown out part of the sidewall. A smaller hole In the clocktower marked where a three-inc- h pro-

jectile had cut through, and the dial

lay shattered at Abbe Schmidt's feet.Another shot had torn from it3 hang-

ings the old church hell, which In itsfall had crashed through the frontand obstructed the entry. " AnotherLhot had made a great opening in the.roof and the shall exploding insidehad demolished the altar and the re-

liquary lay burled beneath a heap of

stone, mortar and splinters. But the

four walls remained erect and the

steeple seemed to hold its pointedbead up with the same dignified for-

titude with, whicb the venerable abbe

braved the iron hand of the destroyer.Five days before the Germans had

made a short forced halt around Ver-

neuil, and when they passed throughit. was to seek shelter for a great num-

ber of victims of the French artillerywhich had halted in its retreat to

check the pursuers. The vicar of the

parish was among the 20,000 priestswith the French army, whose lines al-

ready extended far to the south. Most

of the inhabitants of the parish, had

fled or sought refuge, and the Abbe

Schmidt was nearly alone to aid the. German surgeons and nurses to take

care of these grieviously torn sol-

diers, most of whom lay upon bun-

dles of straw in the church Itself. For

three days, night and day, he cared

for the enemy's wounded with the

same devotion aB it they were of hisown country. Then, in tho frantic

hurry of the retreat before the allies,be endeavored, as far as possible, to

ease the pain caused by their trans-

port into all sorts of improvsed am-

bulances.The last of the wounded had scarce-

ly quit the town, when the booming( cannon was heard from two direc-

tions almost simultaneously, and from'the German lines the shells began to

tall into the little village. When theFrench came through, the church was

wrecked and no longer a possible shel-

ter for the French wounded.

The following day was Sunday, and

in the morning Abbe Schmidt, with

the aid of a few parishioners, succeed-

ed in hanging the bell from a beamBaved from the church, dug out the

reliquary from under the debris, erected an altar in the street and said massbefore the largest congregation thathad gathered in his parish in manyyears.

This is only one of many incidents

showing that, after drifting for a cen-

tury toward unbelief, France is reviv-

ing to a considerable degree its reli-

gious devotion under the soulmovinginfluences of war.

I am already signed up with ConnieMok.' 'That doesn't make any differ-enrce- ,'

said Freedman, 'the Americanleague won't last three months, andthen wheer will you be? Every play-

er who goes with that league will beblack-liste- He won't be able to playanywhere else as long as he lives,and furthermore, you are the propertyof this club, and if you refuse to liveup to your agreement I will bring suitagain you! myself.'

"This was a remarkable revelationto me. Prior to this I had had no

inkling of my value to Mr. Freedmanor the New York club. Possibly hadit not been for the fact that his entire

ptiching staff had deserted to theAmerican league and he was left flatrwthout a twirler, Mr, Freedman himself would have had no such opinionof my value.: However, as it was, andtaking full advantage of my childish,ignorance, he so wrought on my ima-

gination that I didnt know where I wasat. I naturally didn't want lo foregomy future career as a ball player, itsuch a career was a prospect, andI didn't want to( go with a league thatwouldn't last three months. But atthe same time, I didn' want to go hacktm niy word to Connie Mack, so I ex-

plained to Mr. Freedman that I had

already received $50 in advance moneyand asked him if he would, return thismoney to Mack. He said he would andwe left the matter in that way. I

immediately wrote to Connie Mack,

explained tho situation, told him I

was threatened with a suit by Mr.Freedman, and asked him if he wouldstand behind me in this suit. To thiscommunication I received no reply. I

repeat that Mack knew nothing of myability as a player, except throughhearsay, and no doubt thought if therewas going to be so much, trouble in

getting possession of me, the gamewasn't worth the candle.

"In any case, 1 eventually returnedto the fold of the National league,and the beginning of the season foundme pitching for Andrew Freedman.Incidentally, he persistently forgot toreturn the $50 to Connie, so when Ihad received enough salary to enableme to do so, I refunded the money my-

self."

Mexico, cannot be operated unlesstheir owners conform to the state au'tomobile regulations in the matter oflicenses, lights, etc., is the information that Assistant Attorney GeneralIra is sending to the Butfalo people today. The concern is theEricsson Manufacturing company andin a letter to the secretary of statethe manager explains that the manu-

facture of "toy automobiles," drivenby one-hal- f horse power motors, and"suitable for boys between the agesof 12 and 16 years," was planned. Heexpressed the opinion that heavy salescould be made in the event the "toys"were not subjected to the usual auto-

mobile regulations and asted for m- -

formation. As the state law coversall motor-drive- n vetiicles, regardlessof horse power, Mr. Grimshaw holdsthat such "toys" would be subject toa license fee of $2 a year, and thatthose owning and operating themwould have to conform 10 the generalautomobile regulations. Hei also isinforming the Buffalo eoncrn that inNew Mexico boys under J X years ofage are not permitted to operatemotor cars.

Present Code of Honor Arranged byMan. Where Does Poor Woman

J. .. Come in? . ,The December number of Pictorial

Review contains an article by Char-lotte Perkins Gilman, entitled "Honor

His or Hers". Whe quote as follows :

Here is man, who has arranged acode of honor for himself which doesnot apply to woman, a code of honorfor woman which does not apply toman. He may do what is outrageousin her eyes without its injuring hishonor or even hers; but this ruledoes not work both ways. If she doessomething which, If he did it, wouldnot hurt his honor, lo! because shedoes it, not. only is she dishonored buthe is!

If a man is licentious, though thisin her would be utter shame, his wife

may still be an honest woman. Butif the wife commits a single error inthis field, not only is she Instantlylott to all respect so much so thatshe loses even the right to a trial by

jury but he, naturally resenting thedeadly blow to "his honor," is freedfrom all the ordinary restraints of civ-

ilization and may shoot her like a dogto "avenge his honor."

If a woman commits adultery, well

then, she haB sinned; she has brokenthe law, and also the commandment.

If she is to 'be punished, let her be

tried, like any other criminal. Is notthis a right of a common thief ? Of theworst murderer? Do not the bravesheriffs give their lives (sometimes)to save a wretched negro (guilty, per-

Is she not "his" and may not a

man do what he will with his own?

belongs; to woman. All the interest a

man has in it, he vests in her, so to

sneak. It becomes his chastity because she is his he in his own person does not feel the need of it.

A BAO BOY'S CHOICE

CHANGES IN KDUCATIOXAL- SYSTEM

The Kaasas State Educational asso-

ciation, at its session in Toeka lastweek, advocated the removal of theelection of state and county superin-tendents of public instruction from

partisan politics. Free text books and

higher salaries for those high in edu-

cational, circles also were proposedas advisable.

While some of the changes propos-

Mr. Spurrell, wbo arrived ln New

ness and hie himself to the nearest In-

dian encampment, where he will selecthis victim and follow him day and

night, keeping up a continual weepingand wailing.

According to tribal traditions, thl?Is a sure sign that the victim will

shortly be taken with the sleepingBickness or some other fatal disease.

It has been customary for them tolisten to the monkey's sobbing, forthree days and three nights and thencommit suicide, thus avoiding deathby the dreaded sickness.

. TUE DUTTf SOWThe voters of New Mexico express-.-.

'. strongly their confidence In the

..publican party of this state andLave renewed their allegiance to it In

terms that cannot be misconstrued.The working majority in the next

legislature will be strong enough to

give the republicans"' full power to

carry out such legislation as they maydtttire to enact, and the responsibilityU wholly theirs.

The duty now Is to pass such lawsas will be for the benefit of the peo-

ple of thls'state; to lesson the burdenof taxation as far as possible, to passsi salary law that is in accord "with

the declaration in the platform adopted last August; to be honest withthemselves and with the people ofNew Mexico; to show that the confidence reposed In the members of thelegislature has not been misplaced,and to make a record to 'which thevoters '

may look back to with pride,when the session is closed and theinventory of achievement is taken

If these matters are considered andgood laws are passed,' no matter whatmay be the action of the governor oh

them, it Is the legislature that wW hie

given the credit.If the chief executive of the siate

puts his veto stamp upon a good measure the blame nvlll be placed wherei; belongs.

If he signs it the credit Is still withthe body that originated and passedit; if he vetoes it the responsibility iswith him.

The opportunity is here for the republicans to place themselves in aposition that is Impregnable, andwhich means a continuance, In powerfor years to come.,,.; vit

Whatever laws are passed, no mat-

ter whether they are signed by thegovernor or whether they are vetoed;,the legislature will be responsible lorthem. Let this fact be understood byevery member of the senate and theliouse. It Is of far greater importancewhat the legislature does than whatthe governor does with the bills thatare Introduced and passed.

By C. D. NOYES.

(Copyright.)Jo Flyn, alias "Snippy," was never a

good. toy. We all knew that he was

bad, for our parents and teachers saidso, but we boys all liked him. "Snippy" could .be, depended upon. Whenho promised any one a licking he de-

livered the goods, or took one him-

self, which answered the same pur-

pose. '

He never told on another fellow, andstudied his lessons to good purpose,when nothing more to his liking wasto be done. But his lessons never in-

terfered with the other things."Snippy" was undersized for his

age, but a natural leader, with an irresistible bent for forbidden placesand things and a remarkable independence of character. He alwaystook the consequences of his own actsgracefully and never grumbled.. . .

We realized these, and many otherof his characteristics later in life. Asa boy, we only kne,w that he was bad

but wa liked him.' Before any of jib were more than

half-grow- n boys, ''Snippy" left schooland went to work ln the rolling mills.

First; he was a buggy-bo- wheelinggreat balls of white-ho- t iron from thefurnaces to the giant ona curious little long-handle- d

iron cart, called a "buggy."Then he watc-- a flreman-stoke- r, the

Welsh called It. "Snip-py's- "

furnace was always hot, the hot-

test in the mill. Finally, about thetime the rest of us left grammarschool he was advanced to a furnaceboss, or puddler.

We used often to see him strippedto the waist, the great muscles show-

ing on his back and shoulders, work-

ing before the open mouth of a glow-

ing furnace, with a long bar formingthe half-molte- Iron into the greatball which we had so often seen beat-

en into ingots by the . Italmost seemed the realization of manyfamiliar warnings to see the bad boywrithing and sweating amid the sul-

phurous gases, prodding the glowingfire with a huge, long-handle- pitch-fork.

Soon after this "Snippy" went outWest to a newly opened steel mill,and we heard nothing of him for sev-

eral years: "Then rumor came totown that he had been seen wearinga striped suit ln a western prison.

Rumors were followed by facts."Snlppy"-'wa- s a'convlct. Many wiseheads wagged, and" the wiseacres re-

called that they had foretold the endof the bad boy long, ago.

Unexpectedly, one, day "Snippy" re-

appeared among Ua. He had neverbeen handsome, cC' even passable inappearance, and age had not Improvadhim. He was still undersized, exceptas to his arms, which were much toolong.

Hia chest and shoulders were pro-

portionate to his arms, and much too

large for his head, jrlls hair was brick-re- d

and his freckles overlapped eachother. Both toes turned ln and oneeye turned out. '

They were the same peculiarities wehad known ln boyhood, all accentuatedby age. He had, In addition, a largescar extending from the right ear un-

der the chin to the middle of the leftcheek.

Some but badly In-

formed, person had thought to Im-

prove the world by putting "Snippy"out of It, and had left the job un-

finished. He was a bad man to lookat and worse to handle.

"Snippy" was reticent. He gave noaccount of himself or of what he hadbeen doing during his years of ab-

sence, and his reticence was catching.No one asked him. It was natural toassociate the scar with the prison uni-form. Somehow, we felt that the otherfallow had more need of sympathythan "Snippy" had.

He wanted a job. Steel-makin- g hadchanged while he wore the stripedsuit; new tools and new methods hadcome into 'use.' "Snippy" did not wantto learn his trade over again, so hewent to railroading.

There was activity, danger, andhardship enough ln a brakeman'a lifeto tempt him. Then the mutual; de-

pendence and reliance of trainmen oneach other appealed to him. His rug-ged qualities of e and lead-

ership demanded action and expres-sion, and found both ln the strenuouslife of the freight brakeman. '

The mysterious feeling' of fellow-

ship that binds tog-ethe-r all men en-

stantly recognized that "Snippy"could be depended upon. One knewInstinctively that he would never befound wanting when the test came.

He was employed on one. of thetrunk lines, running east and west ona division of 140 miles of double track,with light grades and easy curves.Trains of 45 or 60 freight cars werenot uncommon, even in his time.

The train was handled by a crewof six men the engineer and firemanon the engine, conductor, flagman, andtwo brakemen, one of whom shouldalways be on or near the engine, and6na near the caboose, ln which theothers might ride. "Snlppy's" usualpost was in front.

of the governor of Oregon from thedecision of the Oregon supreme courtupuoiuing tne jegisiauve grant ormarsh and tidelaads In Benton countyto the Willamette Valley and CoastRailroad company in 1874, was dis-

missed today by the supreme court forwant of jurisdiction.

HE OPPOSED SECRECYLondon, Nov. 16. Definite an

nouncement is expected soon of thearrangements for the funeral of LordRoberts, who died In "France Saturday night. The correspondent of aFrench newspaper who saw Earl Roberta just before he started for Francewrites to the Times stating that EarlRoberts told him he Intended to speakto Ceneral French about the too greatBecrecy, which, to hia mind, was keptby the military authorities at thefront and at home concerning thework and brave deeds of the Britishtroops.

Injured, or the engine would havestopped. Fifty yards ahead was abrldge an old fashioned wooden af-

fair, over a small stream. The east-boun- d

express was due on the othertrack.

"Snippy" knew all of this and more.The same knowledge or Intuition thathad told him what had happened toldhim also what would happen shouldthe engine pulling the derailed carsreach the bridge. The car bodies, be-

ing so far from the center line of thetrack, would strike the upper worksof the bridge and perhaps cause thecollapse of the whole structure. At

any rate. It would block both tracks.And the east-boun- d express? No,

"Snippy" had not forgotten that,either. He caught the glint of herheadlight rounding the curve at Hick-

ory Grove, only two miles away.Railroad men think quickly ln an

emergency. "Snippy" did. He knewthat the others were coming up fromthe caboose, 1,500 feet away, as fastas they could. The express wouldreach the bridge ln half the time itwould"take them to reach him. Thederauwdvcars would reach it beforeany' ? them, unless the engine was

stopped."Snippy" paused to consider and

weigh these things a long time- underthe circumstances, possibly a fractionover two seconds long enough for theexpress to travel 200 feet nearer, tothe bridge.

It may have taken "Snippy" half aminute to reach the engine, while theexpress covered half a mile. He knewthe state of things in the cab of theengine without stopping to Investigate.Babcock and his fireman were help-less on the floor Injured, but notfatally.

The cab was full of live steam es-

caping from a broken injector, notmerely vapor such as comes from thespout of a boiling teakettle, but super-heated steam from a boiler underpressure of 160 pounds to the squareinch.

The higher the pressure the greaterthe heat, and this was steam thatwould sear the flesh like molten lead,more fatal to breathe than directflame.

"Snippy" may not have known thetheory of superheated steam or waterboiling under pressure, but he didknow the facts and did not hesitate.He had already calculated the chancesduring the two seconds that hestopped to think. He climbed to thecab, dived Into the hissing cloud, andshoved In the throttle as he sprang.The engine stopped two car lengthsfrom the bridge.

A score of seconds later the east-boun- d

express with hundreds of pas-sengers passed safely. When the restof the crew came up from behind anddragged "Snippy" out of the cab hewas dead.

The next day, ln the city, thesesame passengers may have seen"Snippy's" obituary a four-lin- e dis-

patch from an unknown telegraphoffice stating that there had been afreight wreck, caused by loose stonesfalling on the track, ln which a brake-ma-n

had been killed; the fireman se-

riously, and the engineer slightly in-

jured. They may have seen the dis-

patch, but they certainly did not knowthat the brakeman had coolly, delib-erately, and knowingly sacrificed hislife to save theirs.

; ,, Nature's Wisdom. ';

:,W,ben the world was young Its Inhabitants took the halve view that Itwas adorned to minister to their pleas-ure. This view, alas, has had to giveway under the attacks of the modernScientist." We now know, thanks tothese men, that the refreshing greenof the wood and meadows Is not pro-vided for our enjoyment, but for thoserious and practical purpose of plantnutrition; the flowers display theirbright colors to attract the Insect thatconveys the pollen from stamen tosigma.

By the same token, it appears, thealpine hare is snow colored so as tobe hidden from the sight of its enemy;while the Hon Is tawny and the tigeris striped, in order that they may beundlstinguishable from the naturalbackground as they lie ln wait fortheir prey.

All these facts are plain enough andwe admire the perfection of theseadaptations. Indeed, it may be saidthat we now entertain a feeling of intelligent appreciation of their grpateiworth than tne ignorant worsnip o.old.
