In the old days no woman was al,
lowed to desecrate the monastery at
San Augustin. Mexico, by so much as
putting her feet within its walls. A
noble lady of Spain, wife of the reign
ing victory, was bent Oh visiting it.
Nothing could stop her, and in she
came. But she found only empty
cloisters, for each virtuous monk lock
ed himself securely in his cell, and
afterward every stone in the floor
which her sacrilegious feet had touch
ed was carefully replaced by new ones
fresh from the mountain top before
the pollution of her presence was
considered removed. But times are
sadly changed, and the house has
been turned into a common hostelry.

recently been developed in London.

life, Gladys Countess of Lonsdale.

A MISTAKEN THEORY.

In most Of the cities of the United
States Officers of the law endeavOr tn
surround with impenetrable mystery,
everything concerning criminals who
are wanted for any offense. Report
ers are eDjoined to secrecy, if by their
own energy and shrewdness they
chance to catch on, and so far as a
newspaper of learning any informa-
ton from an officer, about matters of
this kind, that is next to impossible.
The result is that officials deprave
themselves of very valuable assistance.
The Jefferson City Journal has the
following very sensible editorial on
this question The newspapers from
one end of the country t4he other
are continually annoyed about getting
information concerning criminals from
ae officers of the law. Time and
gain has it been proved that it has
cen worse than useless to attempt to
ut salt on criminals tail by keep.

The handsomest girl in Sylvania
county, Ga, became engaged nearly
forty years ago, to John Gross, the
son of a wealthy planter. Shortly
after the engagement was announced,
Gross went to New Orleans on bust
ness, forgot his lady love, settled in
Texas and did not return home until
two years later. Though the lady had
not heard a word from him in all that
time, she was still true, They re-
newed the engagement, then quarreled
and Gross went off again. He re-
manned away until few days ago,
when be returned to the old home
stead to celebrate his sixtieth birth
day. He found his fiancee still wait
ing, and promptly married her. She
had refused many offers of marriage
during his absence. Three men
whom she had refused became respec-
lively, congressman senator and a
governor.

fools this plan might work, but such
is not the case.
If a murder or theft is committed
and the Perpetrator thereof makes his
escape, no better plan for effecting his
capture can be adopted than to have
all the facts published in the press.
The newspapers seldom fail to assist
officers and on many occasions give
them valuable information they could
not otherwise obtain. A fugitive
knows ust as we'll as the officers do
that he will be hunted, and the fact
that there is nothing said about it,
does not in the least allay his fears of
being captured. If the facts connect
ed with every crime were published
as soon as known hundreds of people
would be put on the lookout for the
criminal instead of two or three. In
most of the large cities the police
department usually gives out news of
this character very freely, and the
plan has worked well on all occasions.
1t stands 10 reason that the more
information people have concerning a
criminal, the less his chances are for
escape.
