DYING STATEMENTS.

Recently in this city man supposed to
be in the agonies of death, and therefore
most likely to speak the truth, charged
another with his murder. He believed at
the time he made his anti-mortem state.
ment that he was in ertrenis and was SC
informed by officers and attending phvsi.
clans. But the man recovered, and only
last week went upon the witness stand and
confessed that with death staring him in
the face he had lied. The dispatches
now relate that at the time of the shooting
of officer O'Brien in Chicago, in April
last, Tim OGrady was brought to O'Bri-
ems bedside as he lay dying, and the lat.
ter positively stated that O'Grady was
guilty OF his murder. O'Grady was tried
convicted and sentenced. Now comes
Dyer Scanlan, who shot officer Bolan, and
being convicted therefor, yeonfesses that he
and not O'Grady is guilty of the death Of
officer O'Brien. O'Grady had, it should
be stated, stoutly declared that he was in.
nocent, and by most solemn asseverations
protested against the injustice of his con-
viction. In the face of the untruths Of
these two "dying statements" what are we
to think of the solemnity of the hour of de-
oarture from earth's trials? Certainly here
were two men who cared so little for death
that they were ready to die with lies upon
their lips. The approach of the moment
in which the law assumes that the depart
ing soul will not dare to appear before the
Creator scared with lie uttered with the
failing breath, did not have for these two
such awful Importance as to compel them
to the truth. Are not dying statements
given too high value? Are they really
SO much better evidence than the word of
the sound man as has been supposed-in-
deed are they not at times less valuable.
since there is no cross-examination, no op-
portunity to put the witness to the test,
nor can the accused set up his defense be-
fore the dying. We are quite of the be-
lief that dying statements" have not that
value as testimony that they were once ac-
corded, and it is not too much indulgence
In speculation to look forward to the time
when they will be esteemed of particular
value only where the dying man or woman
is subjected to the test Of question and an
swer and cross-examination by whatever
magistrate or official may be present.

sure two years of study before anything
important is attempted; by that time sufi-
cient American artists will have been
trained TO insure success. But this will
not give us national school of music, nor
a national style. The American music
that is to rank as an original school must
be the product of growth and the reflex of
environment. If we had to-day Amer
ican music, and it was representative of
the dominant influences, it would be cold,
hard and inharmonious with the true es-
sentials of real school of music. When
we have reached certain stage of refine
ment and calm, and the rush of the
American has subsidized somewhat, we will
develop schools of art that will be typical
of American character and American feel
ing. The conditions can be stimulated,
however, towards higher levels, and Seidps
scheme would be important aid in that
direction, since it would tend to elevate
and refine the public taste. Italy has a
school, because her people through centu-
ries of training and under centuries of mu-
steal influences, have been educated to a
refinement of taste that does not exist with
us. Whether such taste is essential to a
compile civilization is questioned, but we
hold to the doctrine that as music is one
of the forms of expression, and is the lofti-
est, the cultivation of the public taste to
the higher levels of musical excellence is
| beneficial to our civilization. We
are hard and practical people, given to
utilitarian views and preaching, but with a
natural love of harmony in the American
character, and the surroundings of the
people, the natural environment and the
natural tendency indicate development
| of the love for the beautiful that in time
will give us an American school of music.
The proposition of Mrs Thurber we have
always looked upon with favor, and be-
lieve that it will some day be carried out
that is to have the American Govern
ment, as do other Governments, give
official recognition to right directed efforts
to cultivate the art tastes of the people.
Under such a scheme the Government
would aid and foster painting and song,
sculpture and fine arts generally, precisely
as it is now disposed to do in the matter
of popular education; in the stimulation
of the taste for good reading, by establish
ing libraries and maintaining bureaus for
the dissemination of technical instruction.
The American school of music is far in
the national future, but we believe that ii
will come, and that when we have at
tained the requisite age, we will develop
the American musical school and estab-
lish other American art standards.

gratuiated them on their good fortune in

Hitty received an ovation, a buckskin
purse containing many ounces of gold
aust which the citizens of the Bar
begged she would accept as slight testi-
monial of their regard for girl as brave,
noble and loving as she had proved herself
to be.
Hitty's heart was too full for her to
utter word in response, but the tears ran
down her pretty cheeks, and "the citizens

She knew how her poor, weak mother

her side and arms; but for a moment she
could not speak. "Hitty, Hittyw and
Luke, Lukew was all she could utter
when at last she found voice.
Leaving Luke with his mother, Hitty
ran in to her father.

said you had gone to bring Luke"
And have brought him." said Hitty

Luke held his hand; 81 am going to be up

OCTOBER 18th the Association of ex-
Confederates is to hold its session in Aber-
deem, Miss. jefferson Davis has been in
yited to address the meeting and has ac-
cepted. In the case of any other of the
Confederate leaders we might reasonably
look forward to expression on that occasion
that will comport with the spirit of the
age and the settlement of the questions
that brought on the civil war but from
Mr.. Davis we must expect nothing but a
sigh, moan and regret. not for the fierce
struggle, but for the triumph of the Union.
1t would be mercy to the man, and a
blessing to the country at large, if these
associations would leave Mr.. Davis with
his retrogressive views and his meanings
in the retiracy that old age entities him to
enjoy.

By specification of the contract the
cruiser Charleston was to develop 1000
horsepower under forced draft and accom-
plish under stress nineteen knots. On the
final trial in heavy, choppy sea that kept
one of the screws out of the water fully
one-third the time, the vessel made
eighteen and three-fourths kn,ts, and
developed 6,943 horsepower. 1t is to be
hoped that the naval authorities will con-
slider this sufficiently near compliance not
to demand the forfeiture of the contract,
or, if the letter of the bond must be fol-
lowed, let the Government, at its own ex-
pense, give the Charleston another trial.

NOTE AND COMMENT

A little weekly sheet printed up in
Placer county shows its lack of concep-
ton of the Importance of the late
meeting OF the Northern and Central
California Press Association by publishing,
instead of some account of the proceedings
a half-column of silly trash, including what
may be taken for its editors bill of fare.
The editor confidently remarks: 1--WE will
be there next time, sure" That depends
on whether the present members have any
selfrespect and are acquainted with the
use of the black ball.
