The lee Question,

Regarding the ice question, the Wor-
cestcr Spy has this; "a veteran ice
cutter between here and Boston is re-
ported rs saying that the cold cycles
change every i've or seven years. The
prediction or opinion has been more
than verified within the past 80 years.
That is To say, in 1868 ice was not fit Tor
cutting till the latter part of February,
and the season lasted into March: then
came the year 1868, five years interven-
ing then 1870, seven years intervening;
then 1874, four years intervening; then
1881, seven years intervening, and now
we have the seven years from 1881 &c

Judge Gordon, of Philadelphia,

most outrageous manner. The mum.
Der OF mis- victims will never be known,
as many, for shame's sake, refrained
from making the matter public. Judge
Gordon has, however, saved the young

fenced him to an imprisonment in the

The fact that Of The twenty thou

The fact that OF the twenty thou.
sand criminals apprehended in France
last year over one-half were between
ten and twenty years Of age is o mat
ter for serious thought, This is
especially the case as somewhat stint
lar conditions, though fortunately not
as bad, prevail in this country. We re-
Gently had an illustration OF 1t in our
own city in the ferreiung out of gang
OF youthful thieves. the eldest Of whom
was not thirteen years Of age. There
must certainly be something radically
wrong 10 cause such q state of affairs,
and II would be well il the prime
cause could be ascertained. Natural
deprayity may have its effect, but still
the fact cannot be loat sight OF, that In
many instances the parents OF boys
are about as much to blame as the
boys themselves. The father or mother
that permits son to go where be
pleases and when he pleases, day or
evening, Is exposing him to danger
which may be unsusspected until 1t
bears its fruit by his arrsignment at the
lar OF justice.
There is still another prolific source
OF crime in boys whose ages range
from 10 10 fS years, and that is idle
ness Msny boys of that age have
left school, probably when they were
not more than 10 or II years of age,
and taken positions in stores TO run
errands, bat es they grow older they
quit, in the hope Of getting something
better. Under the present system and
restrictions in reference to apprentices
1t is almost impossible tor them to Sc
cure place where they can learn
trade, and after they have vainl,
searched for work a few weeks the
drift into habits of idlenes5, which,
not checked, will cause their ruin
That this is true is shown by the fac
that over two-thirds of The prisoners Il
the Eastern Penitentiary, in Philadel
phia, are men without trades. We be
lieve that if parents would keep NOR
careful supervision over their son
during their school days, and the
when they commence work kee
them at it AMI still maintain tha
supervision, many boy woul
be saved from becoming a criminal.

Another good result of the Brooks
High License law was shown in Phila-
delphia recently, by the report of the
Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty
TO ChildEen, which shows large fall
ing OIL in the number OF cases during
The past year. This is attributed to
the new law, which has decreased tie
number of saloons and consequently
caused corresponding decrease in in.
temperance and the neglect OF chill
dren. Tie fact cannot be ignored that
of the many hundreds of saloons that
were closed under this law, the major
ity belonged TO that class which offered
especial Inducements and temptations
10 the poor and vicious to palrunize
them. Therefore it is nothing more
than could be expected, tina! when
such places as these are closed, and
the temptation removed, the number
OF cases of neglect and cruelty to chill
dren will be greatly reduced. These
facts show that the law has far reach
ing influence, so far as the happiness
Of women and children are concerned

The danger OF overhead electric wires
Is continually being shown, and the
latest instance is that OF horse, in
New York, which stepped on broken
wire and was instantly killed. The
result would have been the same had
1t been man hurrying home from his
daily toll. Not long ago boy was
instantly killed in Philadelphia by a
detached telephone wire, which wound
Itself completely around his body and
burned its way through the flesh to
his bones These wires are also a
great hinderance to the firemen In the
case OF fires, as has been demonstrated
on several occasions In this city. The
only remedy is to have them put un.
derground, and that this is practicable
has been demonstrated in Detroit
where there is not single wire above
ground. The city should take the mi
tiatiVe In this matter, and as it is only
matter OF dollars and cents to th,
companies, compel them 10 do ike
wise.

committee reported an amendment that
two judges of the supreme bench be

and one for seven. Laid over until to-
morrow. The convention, in committee
of the whole, then considered other
sections of the judiciary article, sand
adopted several. 1t is practically set

ASHLAND, Wis, July 19.-Several
posses of German settlers living around
Bad river are in active pursuit of Jo-
seph Feuchs. the wife-murderer, and
the fate of the fiend who SO brutally
slew his young bride will be either
starvation or lynching, with the chances
in favor of the latter mode of death.
When Deputy Sheriff John Canovan
heard of the murder, not more than
half an hour after it was committed. he
followed the trail of the brute into
bog which lies for miles on either side
of the Wisconsin Central track, but
without finding, the murderer. The chase
has been taken up, however, by men
who will not rest until the body of FeuchS
is strung to limb of one of the tall
pines of forest or until they have given
up all hope of finding the wretch alive.
Every road and path leading into the
forest from the track is being watched
night and day by the pursuers, and if
Feuchs attempts to flee from certain
death in the swamp he must run the
gauntlet of dozen Winchester rifles in
the hands of determined men. The
true motive of the murder, it develops,
was not jealousy. Feuchs and his bride
arrived from Germany but few weeks
ago, and a remark dropped by the wom-
an led to considerable gossip among the
villagers. 1t finally came out that
Feuchs is wanted in Germany for rob-
berry, committed while employed as a
mail carrier. A heavy reward is offered
for him. Feucns became enraged at
his wife because of her knowledge of
his crime, and in a fit of passion he
killed her with a dull-edged iack-knife.
