IN PROTESTANT CHURCHES. graceful compliment was paid to the Knights Culumbus by the Rev. W. W. Page, of Cornwall.

at the annual banquet the Men's Club of the Church of the Good Shepherd, Newburgh, held in the parish house of that church on Wednesday evening. Mr. Page assured his hearers he had a dream that he hoped some time in the near future would be realized. The dream was that of federation of Men's Clubs in the Protestant Churches. The Knights Columbus came to the mind of the speaker in his dream of Federation.

"It is an organization that has recently come into existence, but has spread throughout the world with surprising rapidity. It is in full accord with the policy of the Roman Catholic Church, and in the amazingly short time has become nearly if not quite as powerful as all our Protestant benevolent and fraternal organizations combined. This has been brought about because it is not only federated with the Church, but is in perfect harmony with the heads of the Church. If Protestants would show their strength of manhood, they too must fall in line and become unified with the Church, the whole federated, with the Church its Christian principles."

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1909. BARLY SHOPPING It is just two weeks from Christmas Day and the community has been urged to shop early. It is good advice. It means better and more careful treatment from the store attendants, an early delivery of the goods and better satisfaction. It also means a square deal for the hard worked men and women, girls and boys in the stores.

Early shopping fills the average person with a feeling of contentment and safety gained through the knowledge that the rush is over and the thing is done. Early Christmas shopping conveys a multitude of blessings not the least of which is the comfort and peace of mind it afford the deliverers, the post office employes and messengers generally. For often we fail to consider the labor and inconvenience we subject these faithful boys and men to, and rarely do we find any complaint. Early Christmas shopping has reason, common sense and consideration behind it. A POLICE FIRE The police station fire in Mount Vernon, judging from reports, called all the availalbe men to arms, bared arms.

The "finest" of Mt. Vernon, now proven themselves to be men as well as policemen. Chief Foley, of that city and his ants may justly qualify as Exempts eventually, having snuffed the smoke of actual a Everybody expected great things of Commissioner Conner, the new police executive, but nobody ever dreamed he'd set the police station afire. A TRUST CONVICTED (New York World). The conviction of the Ice Trust for attempting to create a monopoly is a signal victory over corporate lawlessness and greed.

It is the most important conviction secured under the Anti-Trust law of this State. By reason of it that criminal statute acquires new vigor. For nearly ten years the Ice Trust enjoyed immunity from prosecution. from the day of its formation, its existence has been a crying scandal. It was conceived as a piece of financial iniquity by a man now in jail.

It was assured against prosecution by the indifference and inefficiency of law officers of county and State. All the while it preyed brazenly upon the necessities of the poor, sparing neither helpless mothers nor sick children of the tenements, in utter contempt of public opinion and the law. Great credit is due James W. Osborne, who as Special Assistant Attorney-General by his persistence and ability brought the Ice Trust to justice in the courts. He has rendered the people of this city a great and lasting service.

Mr. Jerome, after a cursory investigation in his usual light-hearted way, had announced that there were no grounds for prosecution. In spite of him the trust now stands convicted. Supervisor Attacks Basketball Games In Local Armory Yonkers and White Plains armories took up almost all of the two and oneball hour meeting of the Board of Supervisors Wednesday. The requisition of Captain Nugent for the annual appropriation to the armory, was transmitted through and with the endorsement of the State military authorities.

The captain asks for a total appropriation of $13,094, divided as follows: $4,650 for repairs and new work; $6,579 for labor, $1,489 for lighting and heating, $475 for supplies and sundries. The requisition was referred to the armories committee for investigation as to the necessity of the various items asked for. This started the old discussion that has come up yearly for past two years, as to the right of the military authorities to order the board to make any appropriation they may see fit to ask tor. Mr. Sinnott referred to the fact that no member of the county board can say how much money is to be spent, or to spend the appropriation.

He also referred to the fact that a resolution had been passed last year, directing the county attorney to prepuare an amendment to the military law giving tire board authority to act with the military officials in making up the requisition and also give the Board supervision over spending the came. It was too late for passage, in last year's legislature.
