against the woman was found to be
very meagre. In fact it was so weak
that the jury, at the birections of the
'court ignored the case and put the
costs on the plaintiff.
Instead of paying the costs, the
matter was neglected and the court
issued a bench warrent The resul
was that an appeal was taken and a
I petition presented by the plantiff to
have theco-ts placed upon the county
This was also refused and now it is
up to the railroad company or its

RITUALISTIC WORK.
j T'rme Devoted to It* Proper Rendering
le Time Well Spent.
To oue who has stiutwi Mi* ritual
of our Oriler It almost seeflis sacrl
lege to have the beautiful Jessous of
life and farm work murdered as they
nre at times, says a writer In the
Michigan Farmer. No expression
whatever is put Into the rendering of
the lectures. Notwithstanding one of
| our main teachings Is, "Whatever Is
! worth doing at all is worth doing
well."
j Officers should uot only commit their
I parts to memory, but should study the
| expression so they may render them in
| a manner ttiat will bring out in un im
pressive way the lessons they are de-
I signed to teach. Let our Initiates enter
, the grange for the first time to fiud
, everything in perfect order, officers
and mem tiers performing their parts
In an earnest, faithful manner, as good
laborers on our grange farm, and we
are assured of members who will take
hold of the work In ihe same spirit.
If, ou tlie other hand, the new mem
; ber enters to find the hall In confusion.
■ 'jispcred conversations going oil here
i there, officers mumbling over some
ii.' which lie, tlie.v or uolsnl.v else
j liiulerstands. in the same way will his
grunge career be carried ou.
And another thing, the chief lesson
I we all have to learn in life is that of
discipline. Slight the work or the laws
which govern our order and this les-
I son is thrown away. Impress ii|x>n our
; younger members thut there Is a right
' and a wrong way to do things and you
| are making better men and better wo
] men. for they will be at all times read.v
! to work together as one vrhole for the
! good of all.

i The thirty-fourth annual session of tlia
| Pennsylvania state grange, lield at
J Dubois, brought out un attendance of
' something like 1.500 delegates and vis
itors. The secretary's report showed
an lucrease of thirty new granges and
seventeen reorganized granges during
tlio past ye. if, with a totui member
! ship of .V472. There are about 50.CKH)
j members of the Order In the state. A
; v ast amount of business was transact
j ed. and the election of officers took
; |tlace. There was a lively contest be
j t>veen St.ire Master ITIII and Lecturer
| A. P.. Cornell for tln> office of master.
Mr. Hill was re-elected, however.
The legislative committee of the New j
York state grange could And no good j
roads bill at Albany that met grange :
requirements, so they made one of
their own. j
Talk grange among your farmei ■
neighbors! All farmers should stand
shoulder to shoulder these days for the
principles the grange is seeking to up
hold.
.\o New Llfclit.
Said the Springfield Republican of
Nov. 5: "Tuesday's election may throw
some light upon the question of the
future sanctity of the Dingley rates ad
valorem." The election has come and
gone, but the light is not a new one.
It Is the same old light—the baleful
light of the tariff wreckers. Di conse
quence of this light a protection craft
lias here and there gone on the rocks.
Not all the wrecks, however, are pro
tectlou wrecks. In one state a sena
torial und presidential aspiration has
been knocked to pieces by a plurality
of 20,000, where more than 80,000 is the
normal, while Iti another state another
rampant "reformer" in another party
has been exhibited to the world as an
absolute failure as a vote getter. If
the wreckers take pride in the election
results it is not altogether without rea
son. But there Is compensation.
