slate peni'entisry, on the claim that
the prisoners were deprived Of their
constitutional right by not being per-
mitted to be present when the court
passed sentence upon them. This 10
q point not heretofore decided by the
Federal supreme court. and II sue
tsined will not only relesse these an
archists, but in effect say that Spies.
Parsons and the others hanged were
illegally strangled and will liberate
many other prisoners in the peniten.

The leading lawyers are of the o:in-
ion that this matter can be of m hen

any case and may make 1t wor,e for
them. There 10 no claim of error Ia

1t will result In sending the anarchists
before the state supreme court for re-

This was that they bs hanged. aud

gan and the Hon. Peter Breen heading
out toward Judge Milburn's suburban
residence. and he camped upon their
trail until he saw them enter the
judges door. Yesterday he continued
investigating this midnight procedure
and from the bet information he
could obtain II seems that the visiting
statesman, Mr.. Breen, and the Others,
went to Judge Milburn's residence
and aroused the Judge from his slum-

grand moguls Of democracy in Helena,

the judge to refuse to let the writ be

Breen and his attorney and Mr.. Flan-
agan, not being able to make either
any sound legal or partisan democratic
arguments prevail upon the mind OF
the judge to induce him to grant the
writ, come away with their labor for
their pains.

her friends threw after her when the

"Why, that's a fashionable whim at

AN INTELLIGENT HORSE.


He Is Owned by Real Estate Agent and
Can Read Signs.
This section of the Empire State can
boast Of one or two intelligent horses
that will compare favorably with the
Connecticut animals whose c,cvcrncss
was mentioned in the Sun a few days
agO writes a Syracuse correspondent of
that paper. EX-Mayor Kirk some two
years ago owned a fine brown horse
which possessed a very big brain, ac-
cording to Prot Gleason, and subse-
quently passed into the hands Of local
real estate agent The animal had
been named George Washington" by
Mayor Kirk on account Of his great
honesty as we'll as his general reliabil-
itv under all circumstances. George"
was a most faithful ANIMAL and became
A favorite with the children OF the fam
Ilv because of his unusual intelligence
and remarkable powers Of observation.
After being sold to the real estate
agent George" was employed in driv-
,ng prospective customers around the
city The horse soon learned a great
deal about the bus ness and could not
only locate most Of the property on the
agents list, but also IN time came to
distinguish For Sale" sign from
other placards or posters on the houses
of the city. This peculiar propensity
of the horse showed itself in the even
ing during pleasure 6:ives much to the
annoyance of the agent for the horse
would invariably turn in" every time
. real estate placard came into view.
One day, however, George" came to
grief In trotting along brtskly on one
of the streets his eye fell upon a big
poster that loomed up like monster
display "ad.' He at once drew up to-
the house in question, much to tho
amusement of his owner, who recovered
from his reverie to find himself stand

Against Cut and Dried Criticism.

The art of criticism is such fine thing
that one must regret its present tenden-
cy to formulary. 1thas, think, such a
tendency among us, curiously enough
at the very moment when elsewhere
in France at least-it has emancipated
itself into the license of mere record
of irresponsible impressions. In En-.
gland, perhaps, it is equally irreponsi'
ble but certainly not impressionist.
With us the novel mainly seems to be
the victim of this tendency. Our critics
do not inquire too closely who they
are-are at the present moment nearly
unanimous in their preoccupation with
prescribing to the novelist from tic old
rules of French unity and German OBJ
jectivity. This would be al very we'll
if they were professors in a conservato-
ry where noyel-writing was taught, but
it savors distinctly rather of pedagogy
than of criticism. And though peda-
gogy may be more important than criti'
cism, it is at any rate different thing.
The great distinction perhaps between
the two is that one is mechanical and
the other spiritual -Scri h&ar's Maga'

MRS. HETTY GREEN.
Generous in Some Ways. But Decidedly
Close in Others

| Generous in Some Ways, But Decidedly
| Close in Others.
Mrs. Hetty Green is said to be tho
richest woman in the United States, and
| $40, O00, 900 is the estimated sum Of her
wealth. She is a liberal giver to re-
ligOus and educational projects, more
than a hundred churches having been
endowed by her, while upward of fifty
schools owe their establishment to her
generosity. Against this munitiCence,
however, in her own life and surround
.ngS she shows remarkable thrift She
spent the summer of last year IN Long
Island village, renting for the purpose
a shabby little place most sparsoly fur
lshed Here she lived for nearly three
months, and tho townspoople had an op-
portunity to discover for themselves
how prodigality of income can be allied
with penury Of expenditure.
On the day of her arrival she went tc
ncighbors house and wanted to buy a
quart of milk. She was not knOwn and
there was nothing in her appearance tc
indicate her identity The family did
not sell milk, so her request was at first
refused, although she was told that pos.
sibly some milk might be spared, tQ
which she would be welcome. Mrs
Green declined the milk as a gilt, and
told who she was, adding that shQ
wanted to mako an arrangement, ii
possible, to get a daily quart for which
she was willing to pay ten cents the
current price being seven cents. Such
an arrangement was finally concluded,
when Mrs. Green asked that pitcher
be lent to her for the N TX service dur
ing the summer, in which particular
she was also accommodated. Then Mrs.
Green wanted the milk sent to her but
this was not feasible; consequently, on
every morning of her stay she went
with the borrowed pitcher for hor daily
quart 1t is only just to state that at
the end OF the season the mi milk-vesSe!,
unframed, was duly returned. Her son
and daughter constituted the household
with herself, the entire family living in
the simplest manner possible. They
were regular attendants at church,
however, and every one of the trio
invariably put in bill of generous de-
nomination upon every round of the
plate. N. Y. Times.
