Rev. Leonard Bacon, ID, LID.

The sudden death of this distinguished New
England clergyman was announced in the
GLOBE on Christmas morning. He died the
day before Christmas, December "a, at his
residence in New Haven, Conn.,, of heart dis
ease, the first symptoms of which had ap-
peared some two weeks previous. Yet his
death was very sudden and unexpected. He
had nearly completed the 10Th year of his age.
He was an uncle of one of St.
Paul's well known and prominent citl-
zen, Hon. Leonard B. Hodges, for whom Mr..
Hodges was named.
His father was missionary sent out from
New England to the then wilderness frontier
of Michigan and Ohio. DR.. Bacon was born
in Detroit, Mich, on the 10Th of February,
1902. Soon after his birth his father re-
moved to Tallmadge, Portage county, Ohio,
a new township on the then Connect
cut Western reserve" some fifty mileI
from Cleveland, where he had charge of {
Congregational Mission church. DIR. Bacor
graduated from Yale in 1920, in the same class
with ex-President Theodore d. Woolsey, with
whom he then formed friendship, which has
been uninterrupted. After graduating from
Yale he attended the Andover Theological
Seminary. In 1926, soon after
his ordination, he became pas

BRINGING HIM TO TERMS.

Guiteau's declaration that he is now
sane but was insane July 2, has proved,
as the GLOBE suggested at the time it
was made, bad thing for the assassin.
His mock play in the court room was large
" creating the impression that he really
was lunatic. People could not believe
that sane man could possess so much
devilishness, and though the dodge was
overworked, it was having its effect. AS
the expert witnesses were tearing the
mask off from his feigned insanity, he
evidently concluded to concede his pres
ent mental soundness and rely upon the
claim of insanity at the 'inspired" mo-
ment of the shooting. He coupled his
declaration of present sanity with a suffi-
cient change of conduct to give force to
his assertion.
Since throwing off the mask, he has
been less offensive, though he continues
to display his vile nature. Judge Cox,
naturally enough, did not feel like
passing upon the question of his insan-
ity. That was matter for the jury to
settle, but Guiteau having solved the
question himself, there was no longer
any occasion for the court to treat him
different from an ordinary criminal. He
was accordingly removed to the prison
er's dock yesterday, and now if police
man can be delegated to maui him over
the head when he attempts to interrupt
the trial, order in court will probably be
restored

PAUKING THE COMMITTEES.

The Democratic members of the house
are disguised, and justly, at Speaker Kei-
fer's makeup of the committees. The
committees are packed for partisan pur-
poses. The Democrats do not complain
80 much at the stalwart complexion OF
the committees, though they are conspic-
nous In that respect, as at the manifest in
justice of putting able, prominent and ex-
perienced Democrats in Insignificant and
uninhuential, if not useless positions.
Former chairmen of the leading commit
tees are degraded to places beneath men
of, as yet, undiscovered competency and
actual inexperience. For example,
Springer, who has never served on
a committee, is made chairman
of the postoffice committee, and
Money, of Mississippi, the former chair
man, is made second among the Demo-
Gratis. Cases as gross as this, or more so,
are numerous. Many Democrats will re-
fuse to serve on the committees where
they are placed. Atkins, former chair
man of the Committee on Appropriations,
one of the most important of the commit
tees, is put far down on the list, and will
refuse to serve.
The dissatisfaction produced among
Democrats and Blaine Republicans will
react against this stalwart high handed
action. Packed committees will not
prosper, nor give prosperity to the parties
they claim to represent. Those who
SOW to the wind will reap the whirl-
xuipI
