BEGGS A FREE MAN AGAIN.
His Friends Gather I'm Force to Congratu-
late Him.

His Friends Gather I'm Force to Congratu-
late Him.
Beggs paid brief visit to his cell to gather
up some trinkets he had there, and then he
hurried down to the Office where he signed a
book that was placed before him. A moment
later he was literally in the hands of his
friends As Beggs crossed the Jail yard a
little man ran forward to meet him The
greetings that were exchanged were very
ELUSIVE. The little man was William MUIR
ply, father Of the girl who first told the
story of DIR. Cronin's alleged presence in a
North Clark street grip car. Murphy
caught Beggs' arm and hurried him through
the waiting, gaping crowd to carriage that
was standing at the curb of the walk.
Harry Jordan, whose connection with the
defense movement has always been promi-
nent, helped Beggs into the carriage. Law
yer Foster took a seat beside his client and
then Murphy and Jordan and Lawyer
Ames piled in Unfortunately and signed
the driver to hurry away. The entire party
proceeded to the Office Of Murphy e. Ames
on Clark street. A large delegation of
Irishmen was there TO meet him, and the es-
capped man held another levee for nearly
two hours, when his wife came in and in
formed him that he was due at home.
A Talk with the Lucky Man.
There was little time to say anything to
Beggs; his friends claimed his attention.
Lawyer Ames was picked out by the happy
suspect, and the first thought of his freedom
was voiced as he asked regarding the brave
little woman at her home ON West Madison
street:
"Does my wife known
eyes, have telephoned her." replied Mr..
Ames "She knows it."
~ was afraid to have her come down to-
day, for, although swear by God Almighty
that am innocent, yet no one could tell
what that jury would do. She has not been
down to see me to-day, but will see her very
soon."
Never Heard of an Inner Circle.
The reporters then got moment with him.
To them he said that he expected the jury
to disagree, he would not say why, but said

But What they Have to Say Gives the Lie
to Current Reports.
A horde of reporters surrounded the jury
as soon as they could be got at, and not one
word would they say. "It's no use," said
Juror Marlor; 1--WE agreed not to say any
thing. Our verdict speaks for itself. From
what have heard since l got back to the
world again, there has been some pretty tall
lying in the newspapers. Juror Culver was
not the cause of the delay, and there wasn't
any unpleasantness or any knock-down, as
one paper has declared"
Juror North was hot. He had already
seen some Of his friends, and they had poured
into his ears the wild stories Of war in the
jury room and the assault on Juror Culver
as published, and he expressed himself very
forcibly.
"The man who wrote that ought to be pun
ished," he said, because there wasn't any
trouble at all. We passed the time very
pleasantly, considering our cramped quar-

London Press Opinion.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Daily News, COM
menting on the verdict of the jury in the
Cronin trial, says: "Three of the vilest
wretches ever left unhung have received
substantial justice"
The Telegraph expresses surprise at the
verdict, but is thankful for small merc'es.
The Post says: "Should the case result in
a thorough awakening of American public
opinion to the true character of the Clan INA
Gael, the murder of DIR. Cronin will not have
been whole in vain"
The Standard says the illogical verdict
speaks little for the manner in which crimi-
nal Jurisprudence is conducted in America,
that it should have occupied so long time
to arrive at such an abortive result.
The Times says that considering the diff
Guilty experienced in impaneling jury the
verdict may be regarded as satisfactory and
the trial as proving plainly that the murder
was caused by financial squabble.

Views of the Verdict.

The verdict is not satisfactory to the most
of citizens who have expressed opinions on
the subject Outside of tho friends of the
prisoners among the Irish, and few others,
public opinion here was eager for a five-fold
hanging. The newspapers were particularly
SO, and most of them think the verdict a
mistake. The Herald thinks it may be best
as it is, as the life-termers may conclude to
turn informers, and thereby expose the 9TH
ers implicated The press throughout the
country takes views pretty much the same
as those in this city, most Of them being dis
satisfied with the verdict as being too lenient.
The Irish partisans of DIR. Cronin are to q
man fiercely indignant that every man was
not condemned to death.

About Hair Holidays.

"F've days to labor, ono day for rec
reation, one day for God" is an ancient
Scottish maxim. The modern business
world il hardly ready to accept tho full
measure of this saying, but it began
long ago to split tue difference, until
t'-'Iay the greater part of business
stands still from about Saturday noon
until Monday morning, and the profess
Sional. business, and working man or
woman enjoys a weekday half holiday.
That the privilege of weeKly opportu-
nifty for recreation, with family or
friend, during at lenst quarter of the
yaar, is OF benefit to every man or
woman, has passed from n question to
Nh axiom; and trade, in losing a few
hours. gains the strengthened vigorous
work Of it's workers, who, after reIaxn-
ton, nre abs to give moro and better
results. With this end in view the

a POETS PUNCTUATION.

10" shakespeare Made Dull Readers
Catch His Own Inspiration.
Shakespeare, as have all but veri-
fed to my own satisfaction, at least,
punctuated with the decision which
VIC now look for--not vainly-in a
Tennyson, Ruskin or Kinglake I
have here named three perfect punctu-
ators. My verification, or almost veri-
tication of Shakespeare's own decisive
pointing has been attained through tho
careful study Of many passages in a no
less authentic edition than 1.-The IA
nous folio of 1928" Here we get back;
near enough to the original hand and
the master-mind to form q fair JUDI
ment on the subject. 1t is firmly
pronounced, articulate punctuation,
such as no editor, however 'ju-
dicious," could easily have supplied.
For let no one imagine printers law
of punctuation that Is adequate to the
demands Of a poet. He surely must
know his own meaning best, and he
alone feels, as we'll as means, what he
says. It'll this feeling and this true sig
nificance which he who makes the Ian
guage can best impart by mod
ulations of his own. My view is that
the various forms of punctua-
ton accompanying rhetorical COM
position are like the notes OF
music, which none SO we'll as the COM
poser himself can properly value. Ho
hears, as he pens, every point. So it
must seem to every appreciative read
er, say, of THE Life of Henry ""
Take especially three speeches OF the
King. First, the warmly-pulsating adj
dress to his friends: "Once more unto
the breach" concluding with the line:
Cry, God for Harry, England, and st.
George!" Ncxt, the rebuke to West
moreland, who had wished for ten
thousand idle men from England, with
the spirited continuation of the
speech: This day is called the feast
Of Crispian;' and thirdly, the passion
ate outburst:
Twas not angry since came to Franco
Until this instant. Ta:ie Trumpet, Herald;
Ride thou WHO the Horscmcn on You'd hill;
II they Will fight ". TIL vs. bid them come downe
Or Voyde tho field; they do offend our 8 ght
II they IL do either, we Will come to them
And make them skier away swift "a stones
Enforced from tho old Assyrian sings.
Not on'y is every point in those
speeches adjusted to the maintenance
of a tue balance, being in no enc in
stance too st ong or too weak, but the
actual breaks and pauses of the voice
are so nicely indicated - especially in
the "Crispian" speech. though scarcely
less in the compelling earnestness of
the invocation: "Once moro unto the
