IT is not only in many of our States
that murder is no longer punished ade-
auately. In recent number of Black
moods Maga.ine, which is Of confessed
pre-eminence among British magazines.
II is argued in very able article that
the public mind Is abnormally sensitive
on the subject Of murder, and, that the
murderer has those chances of escape
from laws ever wide-meshed net not
enjoyed by other people. These chances
are: a growing reluctance to set the
criminal law in motion; a growing re-
luctnnce to convict; growing tendency
on the part Of the public to appeal,
with reason or without 1t, for mercy MS
the time of execution draws nigh.
There, as here, tho public is eager in
watching the demonstration OF the vii
lainous deed beyond a doubt, and then
up rises tidal wave of public sympa-
thy, and we read of presents, even
flowers, going to the condemned cell,
'as If some victim interesting. to gods
and men were about to be sacrificed on
the altar of patriotism and public vir-
tue" Possibly, and the thought is not
less unpleasant, in America there Is
more frequently feeling of indifference
to the fate OF the victim rather than
one of compassion for the condemned,
but in either case the result is the same
In both countries murderers escape too
easily, and in both countries 1t is ques
ton beginning to fix the attention OF O
few leading philosophic minds whether
the method of trying murderers, here as
in England, enwrapped in the rcspecta'
bio cobwebs OF traditional usage, cannot
be replaced by another at once less
cumbersome and more eflectual.

0uR great debt of gratitude TO Ger
many for the boon of lager beer is coun-
terbalanccd by our want Of it because of
nnother famous gift received from that
country. In Germany It was that, in
1867, the toy pistol was invented, and
two years later it became an assisted
emigrant to America. II is strange that
the genial land which gave birth to a
greater than Bacchus should have been
fated to produce also the most fateful
implements Of destruction known to
modern times.

Richard Wagner was not as poor as some of the stories about him said he was. He left his family copyrights worth about $25, ,O0O g year. His copyrights in Germany are good for thirty years, in Austria for ten years. in France they have been pledged for the pres ent. The Royal Opera of Berlin alone has paid Wagner $136, ,369 in cash. The capital value of ''Parsifal'' is estimated at $125, ,oOO, and his family gets percentage from nearly every sale of Wagner music, beside royalty on all operas. Thus single check from Brussels amounted to $12, 75O, although it represented royalties only.
