The convict Van Vlissengen who has been recently engaged in the interests of the creditors of the estate through which he com- mitted his enormous forgcries is absolutely weary of his temporary change from Joliet penitentiary to the business oflices at Chicago. He says. ”I Want to get this or- deal over with as quickly as poso siblc and go back to Jolict.” It is not often that a man pleads to be sent to penitentiary and yet there is.no' discount on the *state- ment in the great Book that ”the way of transgressors is har ." We caught a glimpse of a burly form a few days ago. It was that of a man who recently held a responsible position in a firm of publishers in Chicago. By a pro- ‘cess of crime similar to that of Van Vlisscngen’ s be has wrecked the firm and brought loss and sorrow to a hundred people or more, among whom are ourselves, while he is waiting trial for the offence. Whether he is sefitenced to peni tentiary or not he is convicted by his own conscience and will never again be able to stand before the world as a free man. In every town along the North Shore. are trees broken and out- houses and other buildings snffer- ed considerably. The storm was especially hard on moving wagons and furniture. looking towards the first of May.

The lesson is.â€"-to young men especiallyâ€"that honesty is more than the "best policy”. It is the only course open to the man .who would be free. truly prosperous. The lake shore all along is a scencpf and waves rising and wreckage of boat houses\ and pieces of piers are evcgywherc. Perhaps never in thé' memory of living men has a storm been more severe and of such long duration a that of this wgck and as we write on Friday morning, it does not yet appear to be exhausted. THE PEACE CONGRESS snugmv, APRIL ".1999 ..-. "BACK TO JOLIET” THE STORM 38, W Eiikr. Dc LANG. MIN PROF. SCOTT KILLED The terrible storm of Thursday caused several deaths In Chicago. the saddest and greatest loss her in: Prof. Hugh Scott who for. 28‘ years has been the most active and certainly the most brilliant of educators at the Chicago Theolog- ical Seminary. Prof. Scott was riot a North Shore man but the $uddenness and manner of his death was such that it calls for special attention here. especialry as he is‘well known to many citizens of North Shore towns. ' 4 - ‘ ‘ Dr. Scott was about to mount a ;VanBuren street car duringthe ‘blfiinding storm when another car which he did not see. came from the opposite direction and he was crushed to death. No man in the entire congrega- tional churches of the West was better known and there are hun- dreds of ministers who’ owe their training in Bibiical history to him. “lt is further suggested and expected that post commanders and post patriotic ‘instructun will at once arrange with authorities for a patriotic program in levery public and parochial Ichool on Fri- idey, May 28, or some other convenient Relate. Let the comrades encourage this '(eautre of our (york by personally attend- ing upon the school exereiees and by calling to their anti-tame, where nec- ‘Memorial day wtll be obeervedon May Slat. this year instead of the 30th u the letter date will he Sunday This, however, will afiord occasion for giving emphasis to the spiritual lemm involved and every pulpit in the land shtmld be a ”live wire" for that day. ' The department Comminder hopes ”that posts will arrange with auxiliary or allied patriotic organiulidm for participa- tion in whatgver services may be held. “Let every post. either on Sunday. May 30, or on the Sabbath preceding. arrange for a suitable Sunday eel-vice, inviting the, co-operation oi the clergy and'attending in I body, in uniform, so far as is practicable, and in any 'event. wearing the badge and button oi the order.

The Wright hill gives counties the nah: to build and minuin hospitals [or :he treatmentof tuberculosis at public expense, and its aim is to taupplement the Glackin- bill. Counties that do not contain cities large enough to make municipal mnitariuma advantageous or in which the population is shattered among several smaller cities and in the countrytide. will be able to build one hoepiul for the treatment of the disease in the oounty.‘ - '"I'he’Champion of Fair Play" in its last week's issue speaking of the efforts prohibitioniau at Springfield to curtail the saloon interests adds: "0n the other hand. it is propoeed by our friends. "That authority be conferred, upon city councils and‘village trustees, to regulate the legal observance of Sunday and also the right to issue special bar permit! to reputable clubs and societies" and ”That inat'eom- pensatjon shall be paid to persons rated out of buinea through the crehtion oi anti-saloon territory." 4 This 1: en important experiment in the interest: of public health and especially :3 a men: to counteract consumption. SALOON ORGAN SPEAKS In the same case the court also added. ‘T'he Sutisiics of every state show a greater amount of crime and misery at- tributable to the use oi ardent spirits ob' tained st these retail liquor saloons thsn to any other source." Well. luppose these proposals be en~ acted into the form of laws would they stand the tests of the higher count. The United States Supreme Court in the case of Stonens, Mississippi said ”No Legislature can bargain away the public health or the public morals. The people themeelves cannot do it; much led their Iervanu. Government is organized with a view to their penervation, and cannot divest itaell of the power to provide for them."
