THE investigation into Seer

TUB investigation into Secre-
tary of the Harbor Commission,
Gray's defalcations is being steadily
pursued by the experts engaged in
the matter, and each day reveals ad'
ditional discrepancies. AT the close
of "Wednesday nights work three
more of the "doctored" receipts were
discovered, which showed an aggre-
gate deficiency of$1 900, which swells
the fetal defalcatlOn thus tar brought
to light to $46,434 81. The steals
discovered Wednesday night were of
$500 and $500 each, and were made
during the last two or three months,
when Gray had evidently set down TO
his work with a will. AS great
deal remains to be searched it is prob
able that great "deal" will be dis
covered. The experts are on the
scent of supposed C ear straight steal
of 81 900. The failure to make en-
tries is also likely to offer a new phase
to their work, as it may have been
the possible habit Of Gray to pocket
sums of money Of which nothing is
shown in the books. But it seems
likely, judging from their clever work
thus far, that little, if anything can
escape the experts detection, and they
are interesting themselves in every
item relating to the accounts of tie

You've DR.. Hammond, son Q

-YouNa DIR. Hammond, son OF
DR.. William A. Hammond. is report
ed to have made experiments to show
that the dislocation OF the neck is not
essential to painless death on the
gallows. He says that strangulation
may cause death with less agony.
He advocates the use of soft, silky
cord in place of the ordinary gallo~s
rope, and instead of having the muir
derer yanked upward with force
which almost tears the head from the
trunk, DIR. Hammond would have the
rope drawn gently at first, to prevent
its displacement, and when pulled
up from the ground with cord pill
able enough to prevent the passage
of air through the neck, the victim
would Immediately become uncon
scious, and so die without pain. DR..
Hammond processes to have made
experiments upon his own person, III
the presence of other physicians, to
ascertain that strangulation when
complete produces immediate uncon'
seriousness. rliu theory deserves at
tention, as executions as now perform
ed are shocking.

COMMENTING on the useles

-CoMMENTINe on the useless
young man of the period, the Phila-
delphia Times says: Some state
ments recently published concerning
the tendency of young men in life
present many unfortunate aspects.
1t was shown by talks with a number
of employers that comparatively few
young men were learning trades, and
that the number is actually growing
less every year. The boys now grow.
ing up seem to be too nice for real
work, and they seek positions as
clerks and book. keepers and such
light places, where they seem to care
little for the pay so long as the work
doesn't muss their hair and soil their
clothes. This frightful waste of young
men is of very great concern to the
young women. 1t has been the pop.
ular thing for years for young men
to discuss the uselessness of girls.
Large numbers of them are more than
necessarily useless, but the most use.
less girl has generally been able to
find q suitable match in useless boy
somewhere or other. The danger
now seems to be- much in excess of
the useless girls. The young men
are wasting themselves more and
more every year. They are making
themselves totally unfit for the duties
and responsibilities of life.

The paper is we'll gotten up, newsy

Western Union Dividends
