WHY WILL SOME PREACHERS DO THESE THINGS? THE TIMES doubts whether the ministers, who ail over the country, are spending so much time and energy by rushing Into the columns of the newspapers in denunciation of prize-fighting are either wise or useful. It is more than probable that they would find plenty of material close at hand upon which they might better use their energy. THE TIMES has never heard (of a pastor who claimed that he had leisure hours to spare. Most of the preachers, who rush into print, excuse their scanty visitation of the sick and sorrowful on the strength of the plea that they "Have so many to see." We know pastors who shun newspaperiety as they would poison. The preacher who makes good is the one who cares for the hearts of his people. This sort of man finds sufficient evil close at hand to correct
without striving for notoriety by talking to another bunch of preachers who
are as notoriety crazy as he is. He is also the man who, when occasion
arises, has some chance of success in the task of cleaning up evil condi
tions. People know the man back of the preacher and respect his advice accordingly.
The. nintfnrm nrators are not the men who remedy evil conditions. It
la doubtful whether Ingersoll ever made a half dozen really and truly agnostics in his life. William Jennings Bryan can sway multitudes with his magic oratory, but he ha3 failed notoriously to attain to the ends and offices he has sought. ' Here in Lake county we have preachers who are doing good work.' They are the fellows who talk the least. They do not approve of prize-fighting, probably, but they have too much time to look after John Jones of Hammond or Gary who goer, on a "toot" once in a while and beats his wife and neglects his children. THE TIMES is not espousing the cause of prize-fights, but it does desire to express its impatience with the preachers of the type it mentions.

A TEMPERANCE LECTURE. Do you know how alcohol does Its work of ruin to body and mind? A scientist compares the human brain and the nervous system, which it controls, to the electric street car system of a great city. Somewhere in the suburbs Is the main power house, and from It go the feed wires to every part of the city, distributing power to the smaller stations and these In turn to other districts. So the brain is the power bouse of the human system. In the brain are generated we know not how the mysterious forces that govern the functions of the body and the mind. Science calls this energy neuron energy nerve energy.
Now, every feed wire of the great power house which runs the street

RIGHTS OF MAN. I used to stand up for my rights, like every dead game sport, and I wai always mixed In fights, and paying fines in court. "No man," I used to fiercely cry, "on me can wipe his shoes"; and then, with fiercely glaring eye,
I'd hunt for bugaboos. The man who lived across the yard would view me
with a frown; he had his sacred rights to guard, and did fhe Job up brown.
Between us we had painted red the fig tree and the vine; one day I punched

of our fights, which were bcoming stale, and they ignored cur sacred rights, and rode us on a rail. And then we both acquired some sense: the hint was
understood; and now we lean upon the fence, and chat, as neighbors should.
My martial character is gone, and I have no regret; I'd rather be imposed upon, than storm, and fuss, and fret.. But since I ceased to worry o'er those blooming rights of mine, there's no demand for strife or gore, and life seems quite benign. I find, In this queer worldly game, that if I yield my share, the

FADS AND FASHIONS
New York, June 20. The season Is
now so far advanced that the cheaper shops are beginning to display comparatively inexpensive copies of many
of the earlier and very high-priced models from the establishments of the
famous designers. Women who are
compelled - to economize in their expenditures for clothes, but who are skillful with the needle, are in a more
fortunate position this season than In many years, as they can find any number of handsome models easily copied
by the amateur. Elaborate embroideries and trimmings are prohibitive so far as the average woman is concerned and intricate draperies are beyond the skill of the average dressmaker; but a large percentage of the prettiest frocks this season are of studied simplicity and obtain their effects by methods not be
yond the possibilities of a seamstress clever enough to follow a good pattern. There is the Russian blouse, for example, which solves the coat and skirt problem for many a woman who would not dare attack the making of a tailored coat. Good patterns for the blouse coat are numerous and the making is a simple matter, while the smartest of
the trimming" details Is not complicated.
nently adapted to the chic simplicity which is the keynote ot the modish late season frock. There are several lustrous surface cottons printed in foulard designs which look very much like silk, and some of them give admirable service, though they have not the lovely softness of the silk foulard and are at their best in the dark tones and in black and white. Black and white strlqed stuffs, black and white checks, black and white dots black and white designs of every imaginable kind are in high favor for morning wear, as well as for afternoon and evening. Everywhere are pretty frocks of black and white chiffon, the white forming the ground, while an effective design is printed in black. As a rule, however, these sheer white and black frocks have a touch of relieving color and owe much of their charm to the effect thus produced. Bordure chiffons in black and white afford good opportunities for successful models of this type and the manufacturers have supplied them In great number and variety. White swiss with black dots Is attractively veiled in black chiffon and trimmed in black chantilly or is made
up without the veiling and with black

obtained by the combining of two ma
terials, the contrasting stuffs furnishing the trimming motif and but little other ornamentation entering into the scheme. The veiling fad Implies a certain added expense, in that a silk lining or other attractive foundation Is necessarily under the chiffon, net. lace or
gauze; but here again tnere are coior- j ing effects that may be compassed even by the amateur. The fancy for veiling and for combining materials makes possible the satisfactory renovating of old frocks and last year's foulards and other silks may be made to masquerade successfully as this season's children through the aid of chiffon or etamlne. It is not only these silks and woolens that enter into combinations. Linen consorts cheerfully with handkerchief linen or lightweight cottons; embroidered swiss is made up with strip
ed zephyr cloth. Plain gingham ana figured gingham go well together. There is a certain monotony in the smartest afternoon models, due chiefly to the enormous vogue of the bodice or yoke cut in one with the sleeve, but this shoulder and sleeve lines is emi-
ming scheme. The French designers are using quantities of ribbon for trimming purposes, in scarfs, girdles, quillings, big soft rosettes, etc., and black velvet is very much in evidence, though usually employed lightly to furnish the note of black velvet without which no modish frock seems to be complete. Sometimes black velvet is used more
boldly on a lingerie frock, and incongruous as the union appears, the results are often attractive. For evening wear plain white and plain black chiffon are combined in many ways, usually with relieving dash of color. The scarf holding in the skirt below the knee is a characteristic feature of the season's modes and when the confining idea is not exaggerated the effect is often a happy one. Many of the sheer summer frocks are made up vv-ith softly fulled or tucked skirts, trimmed with two scant flounces between which a scarf of satin encircles the skirt either under the material or upon It. The full upper skirt drooping over a scarf below which the material falls full and straight Is frequently repeated with more or less success.
