TEMPERANCE WOMEN. TWENTY-SECOND SESSION OF THE W. C. T. U. CLOSED. Prominent Workers in the Temperance Cause from All Parts of tire United States Meet—All Creeds Made Welcome. Miss Willard Re-elected. Miss Frances Willard was again elected president of the W. C. T. U. at the twenty-second annual convention held in Baltimore. There was practically no opposition, although complimentary votes were cast for several other prominent workers. Other officers were elected as follows: Vice President-at-large, Mrs. 1,. M. N. Stevens; Treasurer, Mrs. Helen M. Barker; Corresponding Secretary. Mrs. Katharine Lent Stevenson, of Massachusetts; Recording Secretary, Mrs. Clara C. Hoffman, of Kansas City, Mo.; Assistant Recording Secretary, Mrs. Frances J. Beauchamp, of Kentucky. The day's proceedings were opened with devotional exercises conducted by Miss Kiiaabeth Greenwood. The venerable Mother Thompson, the original temperance crusader, offered n prayer. The repdrt of the Committee on Credentials showed that forty-three States were rep resented and that 425 persons were present and entitled to vote. The Committee on Resolutions made its report and the convention took it up for f Wwi JWi WWW FRANCKS E. Wil I.AUD. consideration in sections. It declares for total abstinence, favors devotional services, deplores the practice of derivang Governmental revenue from the liquor traffic, declares against the legalized saloon and in favor of union on “the Staten

Island basis” to battle with intemperance, reaffinns allegiance to the pn-hibi tion party, commends the action <>f the Atlanta commissioners in closing the exposition on Sunday, declares L r unfer mooted wine nt the sacrament, favors scientific temperance instruction in the public schools and affirms that the C. T. U. has never received any money for the "endorsement of any school physieol<>gy;” condemns bird shooting tournaments. the use of narcotics, and lynching, favors female suffrage and deprecates "the use of weapons in school drills as fostering a military spirit.” Miss Willard favored a resolution nd nutting Catholic and Hebrew v."!cc^’' active co-operation in W ’ 1 ' : One of the delegates ,-'7b > .'W , t.nt tor the W otn- » ■hX'’'" remperanee Union" to ask «s to affiliate. She laid special emphasis on the word "Christian.” Miss Willard with a good deal of feeling said: "They have extended the hand of sympathy to our organization and our cause. We should invite them to co-operate. I want to welcome them to us if they want to coine.” Finally the convention enthu aiasticnlly adopted the resolution, and Miss Willard said she thanked God for this act of the convention, and that she j considered it an honor and a pleasure to 1 extend the hand of fellowship to Catholic | and Hebrew women. The convention iu&orsed its Wuniiin’s Temperance Publishing Association, con ducted by women in Chicago. It indorsed - the temperance hospitals which do not administer brandy and other intoxicants In medicine. It rejoiced in the usefulness of .the various young people’s societies of he churches. It commended the organisation of a W. C. T. I', lecture bureau and expressed appreciation of the Demorest temperance medal contests. It asked for a place for women on the divorce { commissions of the various States. Mrs. Matilda B. (’arse, of Chicago, pre- [ seated the "Temple report,” showing the I progress of raising $300,090 necessary clear "The Temple” in Chicago of debt. '• Mrs. Carse reported SIOB,OOO on condi I tion that the balance be raised by Jan. 1. I .. Atgreed on Their Policy. Washington dispatch says: President Cleveland and Secretary Olney are agreed on the Venezuelan policy. The published intimation that Secretary Olney intends to resign because he has not been supported by the President in his foreign policy is wholly discredited here, and persons close to the Secretary insist that the relations between him and the President are of the most cordial and intimate nature, and have been such since Mr. Olney’ assumed the administration of the State Department. His visit to Boston is said to have been required by presing private business, and he was enabled to plead an excuse for his absence from the Atlanta party on the ground that he would be expected to accompany a number of diplomats from Washington to Atlanta later ©a to be present there on diplomatic day.

KNOCKS OUT THE FIGHTERS. Arkansas Supreme Court Reverses the Leatlientian Decision. The Arkansas Supreme Court rendered a decision in the Corbett case, by which Judge Leatherman's decision was reversed and the prize fight law sustained. Corbett was remanded back to the custody of the Sheriff of Garland County. Chief Justice Bunn, in delivering the opinion, severely criticised Chancellor Leatherman, saying he had no authority ®Jk bS F “ sky j / vA * * U w’, — OwaA' COUBETT AND DEPtll Sit EK 11 F B Alii (H K for his action in the habeas corpus ease. Judge l.oatherman. when asked what he thought of the decision, said: “1 care nothing about th. nr j Zc fight. 1 think Gov. Clarke has put himself in a ridiculous attitude in view of th. unconstitutional positions he has taken, lie uvrfevtly correct in what the Chancellor would decide because he himself knows that the law was unconstitutionally | passed. He had m> right to nnj other i opinion. lie was imorrvet, however, when he said he thought no other judge in the State would render such an opin , ion, for, in order to declare the law un ! constitutionally passed, it would be nee ' essary to nullify or invalidate an article of the Constitution.

Internal Revenue Collect ion for Three Months show n Fu-Uing Off. The statement prepared at the Internal Revenue Bureau of the collections of in ternal revenue during the first three months of the present fiscal year shows i the total collections to have been $37,- : 741.478, as against $58,054,108 for thu , same period last year. The amounts from the several sources of revenue are ; given as follows: Spirits, $18,852,028, ^decrease from the same period last year I $21,3(12,304; tobacco, $8,075,545, increase S-bi'MloO; fermented liquors, $10,398,100, i increase $<92,630; oleomargarine, $338,3.14. decrease $137,504; miscellaneous, | $89,470, decrease $113,992. During the month of September last ' the receipts tire given as follows; Spirits, : $6,109,499, increase $5,001,292; tobacco I $2,0(0,000, increase $85,005; fermented ! liquors, $3,088,522, increase $32!*,422; । oleomargarine, $07,932, decrease $59,034; miscellaneous, $29,945, decrease $134.493. Total receipts for September sl2, 001,956, which is a gain over September, 1894, of $5,882,251. So far during the month of October the receipts from internal revenue amount to $9,608,260, which is a slight gain over last month.

Quite Simple. When a Burmese husband and v decide to separate, the woman goes! * and buys two little candles of e« KB length, which tire made especially 1_ 4 || this use. She brings them home. SH I and her husband sit down on the iloof I placing the candles between then r’L I light them simultaneously. Ont -a\l die stands for him. the other fo* bor.L. The one whose candle goes out T Ist rises and goes out of the house forever, with nothing but what he or she may have on. The one w hose candle has survived the longest, even by a second, takes everything. So the divorce and division of the property if you can call that a division tire settled. It looks fair enough, but as 1 once heard somebody remark, appearances are deceitful. The wife on her way home with the candle, takes a tiny scraping from the bottom of one of them. A very little will be enough. If the husband and house are empty of pretty much everything but children, she 1 takes the shortened candle and walksC out free and content. But if the Uouh^L is well furnished and the husband*^ possessions are considerable, ho gets, tne short candle ami does the walking * A HiKc'ifultir Army.
