Owing to the Illness Of Chairman doar lts
Postponed Again.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb 5.-The nom-
ination of Judge Woods was under consid-
Grafton again before the Senate Judiciary
Committee to-day. Senator Turpie brought
before the committee District Attorney E.
B. Sellers, who gave detailed statement of
Judge Woods conduct during the Coy-Dud-
ley prosecution. His statement was very
conservative. 1t is said it did not bear
hard on Judge Woods.
There were also in attendance in answer
to subpnnas issued at Senator Voorhees, re-
quest, Captain Ely Ritter, who was en-
ployed by the Committee of One Hundred
TO prosecute Coy and Dudley, and Nathan
Morris, ex-United States Commissioner,
who was also concerned in the Dudley case
and issued the process against Dudley which
was never enforced. Both of these wit
nesses told of their share in the prosecution
and of Judge Woods connection with it.
Chairman Hoar was absent on account of
illness, so the committee did not undertake
to reach decision upon the nomination to-
day.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 5.-The pro-
position to cede the arid lands to the States,
to be reclaimed by them, was carried by an
almost unanimous vote at the meeting of
the House Committee on Irrigation, to-day.
The method by which the transfer of the
lands is to be made and the proper safe

them to prevent their diversion into other
uses than for the benefit of the settler. are
matters that have not yet been determined
upon. They will form the topic of discus

Mr.. Hayes.
Q. W. TOMS,
Sec'y Elk: Com.
Richmond State.

Richmond State.
Ex-President Rutherford B.
Hays has dropped very much
from public notice. To his
credit, it must be said that since
he left the Presidency he has at
tempted in no way to pose as a
prominent man. The only time
he has received any public no
tice has been when he said some
thing in behalf of Prison Re-
form.
In this cause he has labored
with a zeal and with more abil-
ity than he evinced when he
was the unelected President of
the United States. He made a
speech Tuesday before the stu
dents of Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity upon his fayorite theme.
Among other things he said:
Il wish to offer one sugges-
ton that is food for thought
that in studying society and its
forces, it is their influence upon
the individual that is the special
point to be considered. The
criminal is not a different being
from the rest of society-quite
the contrary; he is a typical, a
representative character Of So
ciety. The criminal is a natural
outgrowth of certain tendencies
of the times: he is, in measure,
compelled to commit the crime,
for committing which he is
punished. When the spirit Of
| the community makes him shoot
a man because he has been in
suited; when its unnatural greed
of gain, extravaganza and de-
sire for money leads him to en-
bezzlemsnt, false pretences,
and so on, the fault, naturally,
is largely that of society in
general. And, from considera-
tons such as these, we come
to the astounding truth that il
is the type, not the anti-type, of
society that we find in our re-
formatories andprisons."
This Is strong truth, strongly
put, and il is a manner of ut
terance that is always timely
nowadays When Mr.. Hayes
speaks Of the tendency TO shoot
however, he mentions not q
growing evil, but a lessening
evil, and he mentions as an
evil that which was once really
q help to the country. The fact
that every man was armed and
ready to defend himself in Oh.
days Of 40 in California forced
, order out Of chaos and protect
ed the community. The grow.
. ing tendency 10 extravaganza
, Is, however, one which is re
spOnsible fer many evils, as Mr.
Hays points out 50 forcibly.

while 10, 437 were tried for the eigh-
teen months ending July !, 1890,

the new statute requiring the tabula-

one rescue. Fields Anderson, under
sentence of death for murder. was
taken from Jail in Allegheny county
by a mob of his friends and set at
liberty. He had appealed to the
supreme court. OF lynchings there
were two only, while during the pre-.
vious eighteen months there were
five. OF executions there were two,
both murder, against five during the
previous eighteen months. Eleven
prisoners became insane after being
put in jail and were transferred to the
asylum. During the two years

Christmas season is near at

gone favors? At the time of the

viii be protestations and promis-
es galore, but it wears away af-
ter awhile, and the day will
come when the ninety and nine
kinknesses of the past are en-
tirely obliteratid in the one re-
fusal or omission of the present.
II is human nature-that is
all. We mean well; we pirate
of gratitude, but we don't
practice it. A woman will
wiring her neighbours hand in
time Of sickness and say with
her voice choked by emotion:
"My dear friend, how can I ever
thank you for your kindness in
this trying hour? / am deeply
grateful and / assure you that
| [ can never forget it." Yet
when all fear of danger is past
that self.same woman will re-
fuse TO speak to the one who
rendered her such timely as
sistance because she has heard
that she intended copying her
new gown.
| A man in financial straits will
plead for help with tears in his
eyes, yet once out Of the mirt
and in prosperous circumstances

whose dollars bridged over the
crisis because he doesn't move

Kansas, with Prohibition and
