AaorHER CHANCE FOB HIS LIFE
Frank Gerade Granted New Trial by the
Supreme Court

Frank Gerade Granted a New Trial by the
Supreme Court.
Frank Gerade will be placed on trial TO-
morrow for the second time for rhe murder
of his stepdaughter. Gerade killed the
child by dashing her brains out against a
cradle. His counsel set up plea of insanity,
but q jury impaneled to inquire into his
sanity pronounced him sane.
At the trial Of the case the same plea was
made, but the jury found him guilty of MUIR
der in the first degree. and he was sentenced
to death. The case was taken to the Supreme
Court, and q new trial was granted
him. Gerade's second chance for his
life was given him by reason
of one word used by Judge Magee in his
charge to the jury. Judge Magee instructed
the jury that they "must be clearly satisfied
of his insanity" The Supreme Court held
that the expression used was too strong. and
placed too much of burden on the defense.
Had the Court left out the word CLEARLY" it
would have been all right, but the use OF
that word placed the burden Of proof be-
yond a reasonable doubt on the defense in
stead of on the prosecution where it should
rest. Therefore, on account OF the use OF
that one little adjective, Gerade was granted
n new trial.

HeT HOUSE DfeSS. creation OF ars
Ordinarily we either submit it to the ma
terial rule Of fashion, which imposes on us
all sorts of fantasticalities, or else, if we are
strong minded, we rebel and carry the mat
ter over into the world of reason, the moral
world. And the difference between these
two is the difference between capricious
nonsense and uglinesa Neither side has the
right of the matter.
Dress in the Esthetic Domain.
Dress properly belongs in the aesthetic
domain, 1t is true that it is material
nee essity aud that it must be subject to
moral laws; but these two must be reconciled
by art Dress must be the product and
creation of asthetic laws, and there is no
possibility of its being beautiied by any
other means.
1t is strange thing that women should
spend so much of their lives in the effort to
make dress add to their beauty without it
ever occurring to them to study and apply
the laws of art. To the average woman the
proposition to do this would be so new as to
be hardly understood. She has a vague idea
that aesthetic dress means q Kate Greena-
way gown or Roman toga Even actresses,
whose business it is to be well dressed, ex-
hIbit wardrobes so hopeless from the art
standpoint, as to be on par in quality with
those bad pictures which are rejected from
the exhibitions In fine, the public in gen.
eral is so far from a true understanding of
the matter that even those of us who deem
ourselves qualified to be oracular about it
content ourselves mostly with extolling the
Greek and discussing the wisdom of a re-
turn to the popular, all Of which is mere
affectation.
