OF the wellaccredited fact that for several years
past the number OF prisoners brought 10 their
death by the swifthanded executioners of mob

the citizen, but which have no longer reason for
existence. the rights of society and of an ac-
cused are at ridiculous disproportion. What of

Wayne McVeagh was booked to respond to
the toast of THE Bar" but was absent,
and Mr.. Joseph III. Choate responded in
stead: Mr.. Choate made, perhaps. the best
speech of the evening, although it was ex-
temporaneous. Seth Low next spoke and
was followed by Hon. Chauncey M. Depew,
who closed the talk by his response to the
toast "Our Clients" He made one of his
star speeches. and his wit and logic fairly
convulsed the vast assemblage.

Charged witt. Distorting Historical Facts

HALIFAX, Feb. 4.-Prof. Henry Youle
Hind has been recently engaged in investi-
eating and answering certain charges made
by the Able Casgrain against the Nova
Scotia Historical Society and the Record
Commission of the gross mutilation and
distortion of historical documents concern

now states that he believes that Abbe Cas-
grain and NJ. Rameau are engaged in aiding
the French nationality idea By endeavoring z
to unite the AcadiaDs of the maritime prov
inces with the French Canadians in Quebec
and in the United States. In a pamphlet
just published he develops the alleged
scheme, and says that the efforts of the
Able and NJ. Rameau can only have for
their effort, or their object, the separation

They Own Many Fine Farms, But Can Not
Be Induced to Till Them.
A modest brick house standing a little
way back from the street, in a suburb
of the city of Dayton, O., is the prop
erty, and for part Of the year the home
of a Gypsy of repute, the heir-ap-
parent to a throne in Little Egypt; and
here and hereabout is the rendezvous
of a numerous band, or tribe This set
Element is widely known as the home OF
some of the richest and most influential
families OF Gypsydom, among them the
Stanleys, of whom the present head,
Levi, is called the King. This Levi
Stanley is a short, heavy-set man of
something over seventy years; he is still
strong and active, with ruddy cheek
and bright eye. Much of his time is
passed with the travelling parties,
while his oldest son, Levi, Jr, a
stalwart handsome man of fifty, assumes
much of the active direction of AFFAIRS
looking after property, etc.
Lying scattered about to the north of
Dayton are many fine farms owned by
them. At present most of the farms are
in the hands Of tenants, for however
near the Gypsy may be to the primeval
man, he has not yet developed strong
liking for the labor of the primeval oc-
cupation.

CONCERNING SUICIDE.
A Word About the misconceptions of
Would-3e Self-Murderers.

Would-I3e Self-Murderers.
We have no wish to write a homily,
or to play the medical adviser, but
when any one finds himself thinking
wistfully of death as Of friendly refuge
and desirable ending, he had better
look out. He is sweeping the outer
circle of a maelstrom, and may reach
the center before he knows. Nature
protests. He had better take care. A
dose of medicine, few days holiday,
an evenings cheerful talk, doctors
advice, or even enc antics of
circus clown would in all like
lihood have saved many valua-
BILE life by relieving the strain,
drawing the moody, over-wrougEt one
out of himself and starting him afresh,
with renewed heart and hope. 1t is
easy, however, to say that every suicide
is coward. In many cases he is, and
he knows it. He can not face reproach,
but he can leave his poor wife to face it
alone. He is frightened at the idea of
want, but he leaves his children to fight
that giant without his help. He thinks
there is no help, when, if he had had
patience for another day, help would
have come. He thinks every thing
against him. Had he had more man
hood and more faith he would have soon
found that the darkest cloud has silver
lining But who knows? Poor fellow,
it is difficult seeing things as he sees
them, and with shattered nerves and a
breaking heart perhaps the plunge he
takes is not so surprising after all.
Still, it is an unquestionable fact that
many who have wished for death, and
some who in their dark days have I'M
successfully tried to effect what they
thought was the happy dismissal, have
lived to smile at their foolish fears and
their cowardly wishes; have learned by
happy experience that 'slife is worth the
living after all, and that manhood or
womanhood, in all which makes up
these words, is either gone or fast going
before any would choose to cover with
shame and sorrow all their kindred,
darken their children's lives and risk
their own everlasting well-being rather
than look actualities fairly in the face
and meet their future, whatever that
may be, and their own suferings and
privations, however severe and pro-
tracted, if not with the sustained hope
fitness of the Christian, yet with the
unshrinking courage and calmness of
the stole and the man. Ii the worst
comes to the worst, antt it never does
when gagged by common nervous
anticipations, this at any rate can be
said, if nothing more: This, too, will
pass. The darkest day, live but to-
morrow, will have passed away."-To-

THE GOLD DOLLAR.

If the fortunate man only happens
To possess the right kind of dollar
It was a common saying, not many
years back, to speak of a conservative
business man, not inclined to specu-
late, as being so cautious that he would
not pay more than eighty big copper
cents Cor small gold dollar. Nova
days man can walk into bank with
a yellow gold dollar and exchange it
for from $3.50 to 81 IN white silver, red
copper or crisp notes.
1.-The fair sex, as a rule, is not given

actually, unintentionally perhaps, and
without malice, made a corner in gold
dollars The craze for bangles has
about ended, but only for the reason
that the women of America are carry
ing almost the entire gold dollar cur
nency of the country upon their necks,
arms, fingers and ears.
'4On March 3, 1919, the United States
Mint was authorized by law to coin 81
gold pieces. The weight of the coin
Was to be 25.8 grains. and the degree
Of fineness was fixed at 900. The same
year the first gold dollar coin was reg
istered, but from the beginning it did
nst meet with popular favor because
Of its inconveniently small size.
'tAlong in the ffties the coin was
made of larger diameter but thinner.
During the war but little gold was cir
eulated, and upon the resumption of
specie payment the small gold coin was
not received as well as the silver cart
wheel of the same denomination. So
apparent is the objection to the gold
dollar as a circulating medium. that
for the past decade it's coinage has
virtually been suspended. except the
issuance of a few special copies each
year '-Jewelers' Weekly.
