NJ another instance of the skiful generalshp of Mr.

have shipwrecked it for no House would SIT at md

General Hustled first had the bill read then offered
his amendments in a body, and so avoided what
would have been fatal flood of talk.

THE INCREASEOF CRIME.

1t is noticeable and startling fact
that crime is on the increase in this coun-
try. Notwithstanding boasted advance
in civilization, not day passes that tel
egraphic reports do not reach US, giving
accounts OF cold-biooded murders either
entirely or almost wholly unprovoked
and human life, proyerbially disregsFded
in America, seems now to be looked upon
even as cheaper than ever. In the iar
West where the region is sparsely settled,
and even then with wandering
miners and thriftless adventures, 1t Is
easy 10 account for crime, but our reports
do not confne it to the West. In large
and populous cities, where refinement and
intelligence is the boast, the bloody deeds
are done a openly and freely as on the
Western plains, or in the drinking dens
of the mining settlements. What Is the
reason of this? II can only be in the
laxity with which the law is enforced.
Depraved men seem TO be restrained on
" in the degree with which they are
taught that punishment, sure and speedy
will be mcted to the offender, When
they see, as they have done in numer-
Gus prominent cases in the near
past. that murderers are either acquitted
or get oil, after i long respite,
with very light punishment; where such
pleas as emotional insanity, drunkenness,
the heat of the moment, and the like,
added to a morbid scntlmentality to
wards the culprit on the part
of many are successfully adj
vanced they feel as if they can
indulge their dopravity to its utmost with
impunity and they do SO. The true re-
medy to check this spirit Of lawlessness Is
TO call spade spade, and murder, muir
der. TO administer with stern justice
the proper punishment, and in many
cases to allow a short shrift, and stout
rope to pertormits Legitimate duty. When
criminals see this disposition manifested
they will be less reckless in their crimes

The Proposed Great Sub. Marine Tunnel

The Proposed Great Sub Marine Tunnel.
The projected submarine tunnel across the
British Channel was the subject of an inter-
esting discussion at the recent meeting of the
British Science Association. Sir John Hawk
shaw, the President of the association, wished
to say that if it were necessary to follow cir
cuitous lines in constructing the tunnel it
would never be constructed. 1t would be
constructed only on the assumption that it
would 60 on tolerably straight lines, and he
was not aware that there was any likelihood
Of that turning out impossible.
As some people supposed the tunnel was
going to be near the bed of the Channel, and
that any small errors as to depth or thick
ness might affect the construction, he drew
section of the proposed tunnel, showing that
ID would be taken $50 feet below the level Of
che water channel, and with 230 feet of solid
matter betwixt us and the bottom of the
Channel, small leakages would not, as he
knew from previous experience of chalk tun-
Melting under the sea level prevent the con-
struction of work Of this kind. He said that
he would like to add word about the ventil-
alton of the tunnel.
People said that they would never ventilate
IT. and because he had said nothing about it
his silence was supposed to be an acknowledge
ment that they could not face it. That was a
mistake, however. Pneumatic tubes were
already used in London, and it would be
essential for the purposes OF construction that
there should be pneumatic tubes on each side
Of the tunnel in order to blow in and suck
ont the men and the materials. When the
work came to be done one of the tubes could
be utilized for introducing fresh air. He had
been silent hitherto about the matter, because
engineers did not like to talk about such
things until they were accomplished.

GOUVERNEUR KEMBLE.

Gouyerneur Kemble, the contemporary OF
Washington Irving, Gulian q. Verplanck,
James K. Paulding, Fitz Greene Halleck. and
other eminent men identified with the history
Of New York, died at his house in Cold Spring
on the Hudson, on Thursday, aged ninety.
He was prominently before the public for
many years. While United States Consul to
Cadiz, whittier he had been sent by President
Monroe, he interested himself in the proce IS
of gun casting, as practiced in the Spanish
government cannon foundries, and on his re-
turn home he established the West Point
foundry, in which gun casting was first
brought to any degree Of perfection in this
country.
He was the first president Of the foundry,
and was associated in its management at times
with the Pauldlngs and the PARROTS, of Par
r0tt gun fame. He was Representative in
Congress from 1887 to 1841, and was men,
ber of the convention elected in 1916 to re-
wise the Constitution Of New York.
MIR. Kemble was one of the seven surviving
nominees of the Tontine Association. The
share on Ibis life was purchased by his
father at the at the formation of the associa-
tion in 1892 when he was only five years old,
the compact Of the shareholders being that
the property of the association should be
divided when the number of nominees,
originally two hundred, had been re-
duced to seven. This occurred a year or two
ago, and suits are pending for the division of
the property. His share cost $500, but is
worth $4,000. 1t has been owned by differ
Ont persons, and the holders have been paid
their proportion of the income OF the associa-
ton every year. Mr.. Kemble's death leaves
oaly five nominees living. Wm. Bayard, who
was one of the seven survivors, died few
months ago, aged So years.
Mr.. Kembles mansion on the Hudson was
the resort Of fashion for years. He enter
aained in grand way, and his military recep-
tions to the officers and academic staff at
West Point were unsurpassed. Gen. Winfield
Scott was frequent guest at his table.

ExactiOns From Travellers.

The Detroit Tribune complains of the ex.
tortions practiced by porters on sleeping cars.
1t says: mo matter how gentleman's boots
glisten under Dayandmartinish auspices when
he takes to his bunk, the porter gives them
further polishing during the night, and be-
fore the car is retired from the train in the
morning, he comes along and makes his as
Sessments. Two dollars per night for berth
is rs much as traveller ought to be taxed,
but the porter's charges are as imperative and
faithfully collected of the passenger as are
the charges of the company. 1t is for each
the small matter of twenty. five cents, and
against that slight imposition he disiikes to
protest. But it is an imposition. neverthe-
less, that costs car full of gentlemen Sc a
night, which goes to advance the pecuniary
vell-b being of the porter, and an imposition.
also, that ought to be ended on all the lines
Of sleeping. cars"
