Judge English, of Illinois, has been I impeached by the House of Kepre | senatives by a large majority. Among : ill- charges brought against the judge ; one was that he was in the habit of i using indecent languauge on the lieuc’J. Some of the language quoted ; 111 the testimony in the House was : so raw that Speaker Longworth for jbo.de its repetition. notwithstanding j those who used the language were on | ly quoting from the testimony of wit | nesses as to the kind of talk this | judge is in the habit of using in bis ; court. If this allegation is eorrect Judge English ought to be impeached in the interest of decency. A judge, j of all men, ought to set a better ex- I ample of dignity and decency What other charges were brought against the judge are not known fie re. but indecent speech in court is sufficient of itself to show that a judge is unfit for the place he holds. This applies not to judges alone. Many man occu pying high public position ought to be very careful on this point. Some people seem to think that a joke is not funny unless it is dirty. We have known decency outraged where groups j of men assemble in clubs and at other [ places. Gentlemen, however, are as sensitive on this point as ladies, and their feelings are entitled to the same respect. Vulgar or obscene language always betrays a streak of coarseness, and should not be tolerated. Fun which has as its basis salacious senti ment is not fun at all. Wit that is free from the vulgar, is delightful. Humor that is clean and wholesome is a fine element of pleasure in anv public gathering. Coarse and shady allusions that depend on the rough and vulgar are an offense against any refined nature. One of the most wholesome signs of the times in the freedom from vulgar jokes in political speeches of the present day. The time was when every speech wag “spiced” | with both profanity and vulgarity. Zeb Vance was a past master at thia business; but if Vance were alive to day we have no idea that he would indulge in language that was the stock in trade in his day. All refer ences with a shady meaning, howev er veiled they may be, ought to be avoided by public speakers, as well as by everybody else where groups are gathered. Purity of speech does not mean the loss of humor. Some of the brightest and most attractive speakers that appear before the pub lic are those who most carefully THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE avoid the language of the gutter snipe. A Fantastic “Imperial Secret." The Pathfinder. After twenty years of silence Ed ward Hatch, a New York merchant, has told an “imperial secret" that had its inception on the Hatch farm, near Brewster. N'. Y„ and its conclusion in the court of the Itomanofs of Rus sia. The story begins with the year 1903. During that year a New York newspaper published an account of the state of affairs on the Hatch farm. It set forth that 85 per cent, of all the animals born there were males. ■ Valuable bulls from the farm flooded the market. A flock of thirty ewes bore twenty-six males. All the chick ens were roosters. Likewise were the turkeys all gobblers, the pigeons all roosters, and a house eat had seven j kittens, six of which were tomcats. Even the hired man and his Wife on I the farm had five sons. Because the > corn would only grow on stubs scien- j tists said it was male corn. Soon after the appearance of this story a stranger questioned Mr. Hatch about it. He wanted an explana- I tion. Mr. Hatch told him he thought i it might be the water, which analysis i had shown contained much phosphor-, ius and magnesium. Whereupon, the ! stranger introduced himself as the Russian consul. Then he wanted a sample of the "magic water” and it was given him. Several days later he appeared at the farm for the wat er. The two uniformed attendants filled a keg with the water and the consul insisted on sealing the bung himself. He was asked for what purpose the water was wanted, but the only answer that could be pumped from him was “just for an experi-J rneut.” However, juet one year later cable dispatches from Russia reported that a male heir to the imperial Russian' throne had been born. All the pre- I ceding children of the exar had been | daughters. Thus, the mysterious water from the Hatch farm in the United States was credited with giv ing the ill-fated Romanos dynasty an heir. After the appearance of these reports Mr. Hatch called on the Rus sian consul, but all bis questions were evaded. So he kept the episode to j himself until recently when be was told an anecdote by a woman who bad been close to the former German court, which seemed to corroborate the implications f his wn experience.

Tall, and slender, and sallow and dry ; His form was bent, and his gait was , slow. And his long, thin hair was white as snow. Rut a wonderful twinkle shone in his eye: And he sang every night as he went to bed “Let us be happy down here below; 1 The living should live, though the dead be dead.” 1 Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago. He lived in the house by the haw tborne lane With roses and woodbine over the door; His rooms were quiet, and neat, and plain. ! Bpt a spirit of comfort there held reign. And made him forget he tvas old and poor. “I need so little,” he often said; “And my friends and relatives here below Won': litigate over me when 1 am dead." i Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago. He taugh| the scholars the Rule of Three. Reading, and writing, and history too; He took the little ones on his knee. For a kind old heart in his breast had he, ' And the wants of the littlest child he knew. , “Learn while you're young," he often said, j “There is much to enjoy down here below: j Life for the living, and rest for the dead !” Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago. With the stupidist boys, he was kind and cool. Speaking only in gentlest tones. The rod was scarcely known in his school Whipping to him was a barbarous | rule. j And too hard work for his poor old bones; Besides it was painful, he sometimes said: “We should make life pleasant oown here below The living need charity more than the dead,” Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago. He sat at his door one mid-summer u ! ght. After the sun had sunk in the west. And the lingering beams of golden light Made his kindly old face look warm and bright. While the odorous night winds whis pered. "Rest!" Gently, gently, he bowed his head : There were angels waiting for him, - I know: He was sure of his happiness, Lying or dead, j This jolly old pedagogue, long ago! i Post and Flagg’s Cotton Letter, ‘ New York, April 10.— I There has been little activity in the market and little in the news to create neti ! v * t . v - Exports were heavy but weekly figures on the whole were bearish with that exception.
