II is now pretty certain that the
police OF Philadelphia have succeeded
in arresting the murderer Of the man
whose mutilated body was found in a
water pipe in the East Park one day
last week, and the fact reflects the
greatest credit on their skin and ability.
They have not only succeeded in clear
ing up what seemed likely to prove as
great mystery as the Londen muir
ders. hut they have also succeeded in
securing the We. pons with which the
crime rs committed. Further than
chat they have also found evidence
which points with an unerring finger
90 the man whom they have in custody
rs the perpetrator OF this terrible crime.
These facts go TO show that with intel
liRent effort On the part of skilled de-
tectiyes, it Ia next to impossible for a
murderer 10 escape in our large cities.

Uses of Mirrors.

The use of a mirror for rejecting the sun
seems TO run from the extremes of boyish
rogufshness IN flashing the suns rays upon
the eyes Of some companion--or even older
persons, if the distance be sufIieient-and
then reaches 10 the other extreme Of using it
to fash the suns rays for heliotrope signals

To Cure the Tramp.


Detroit News
Judge Duffy 'of New York says that
the tramp is the product Of misappled
and foolish charity. In this he is wrong
The tramp came before charity. Charity
has had something to do in degrading
him and making him content with his
condition. but it did not produce him.
The tramp is the product of law He is
the child of society He Is with us be-
cause he cannot help himself, and
society recognizes this by build
ing poorhouses to take care of
him. immigration has helped to in
crease the evil, by compelling us to take
care of both our own tramps and those
produced by similar conditions in Europe
but immigration would be powerless to
effect harm in this direction did not So
ciety persist in legislating against any
change. Every effort to give the tramp
chance, to change him from pauper to
wealth producer, has been opposed by
the governing classes. He is refused the
chance to support himself, and society is
compelled TO bear an additional burden on
his account
The tramp being the product Of law,
he will disappear when the laws creating
him are repealed. Everything that re-
stricts exertion, that chains the indi-
vidual to locality, that deprives him of
the right to work and to freely exchange
his products, aids in the creation of the
tramp and helps to propagate the long
train OF evils that follow in his footsteps
The cure for the tramp then is liberty
liberty TO attack nature and wiring from
her living; liberty to make such dis
position Of his products as seems to him
the most desirable; liberty to do any
thing that does not conflict with the
liberty Of others
The repeal Of restrictions marks the
advance OF civilization. Freedom, happi-
ness and prosperity go hand in hand
whenever and wherever human barriers
that prevent the free exercise of human
rights-the right to work and the full re-
ward Of that work-are torn away.

Temperanes ) ReneHted.

Philadelphia Ledger.
The anti prohibition vote on Tuesday
is not, we repeat, TO be taken as a victory
for the enemies Of temperance. On the
contrary, it is a distinct utterance
for upholding that admirable help to tenn
perance, the Brooks Act, which put an
end to unbridled liquor selling. Even
the anti prohibitionists fought under
the high license banner, and against
the chaotic state of things which
the adoption Of the amendment might
have brought about. Many citizens who
voted "Wet" would have been ranged on
the side Of resistance to the liquor traffic,
under the banners of the DRY, had it
not been clearly understood that the
Amendment If carried, might, for
an underlined time, remove all the
wholesome restraints upon the sale Of
liquor The careful work of the
Judges who supervised the issue Of
licenses in Philadelphia is showing by it's
fruits that a stringent license law can be
enforced. There is every reason Of self
interest, to say nothing of self-respect,
now at work, compelling tavern keepers
TO carry out the law. Liquor sales to con-
hrmed drunkards, to minors or ON Sun.

THOMAS SEDDoN, president Of the Sloss
Iron and Steel Company Of Alabama
says:
It is a plain business proposition and
all men in the South engaged in manu-
featuring must be protectionists.
Why2 To give the laborer higher
wages in Alabama? That seems prepos
ferrous. Such proposition as that has
never been advanced by the most unrea-
sonable proteetionists. To enable the
Southern mills to pay dividends? Iron
can be made cheaper in the South than
anywhere in the world The Penn
sylvania and Ohio mills are suffering
because the Southern iron drives their
product out of the market. What is the
need Of a prohibitory tariff in the South
thenl Higher profits, Doodle, legalized
booty. There cannot possibly be any
other reason for protectioaism in the
South President Seldom must stand
confessed and he would be confused too
If the advocate of the robber tariff could
feel sense Of shame But he has an
excuse and 1t is that sectional lines

PRINCETON COLLEGE does not scatter
her degrees as favors to rich men. She
gives few degrees only each year, and
with the one exception Of the President
of the United States to whom degree is
given by courtesy, they are always given
for merit. The honor of Learned Doctor
of the Laws has been worthily conferred
on Senator George Gray. He has won
this distinction by modest merit alone
He has been an honorable, upright man
and has gained a reputation as student
and counsellor at law which makes him
a conspicuous mark for college degrees
and the applause of his fellow citizens.
Where is the man who does not respect,
admire and honor George Gray.
