The Remedy for Lynch-1a,y.


Lynch law is the natural outgrowth
of weak judiciary. a creature of the
laws delays. and a child of the boauet-
carrying idiots who deem feigned re-
pentanee sufficient ground for leniencv
or pardon. The disuse of capital pun
ishment must not be blamed for such
exhibitions of popular wrath. for sta
tiStlcS show the contrary It is the
maWkish sentiment that proceeds from
the inability of some people to realize
the depths of Wiekedness of which
some hearts are capable, and the tech
nicalities upon which most plausible
pleas can be constructed by a slzilfuI
lawyer before corrupt or gullihle
court.
The remedy lies in a reformation
which shall make the action of the law
MEMORABLE in capital cases. and, per-
maps, extending the list of capital cases
to cover certain other crimes that are
really worse than murder. Until this
condition is attained, lynch-law will
prevail to a greater or less extent. de-

The ACKNOWLEDGMENT Man.

A German professor was remarkably
absent-minded. Whenever he was
very busily engaged in his studio, solv-
ing some abstruse problem, his wife
was in the habit of bringing Inn his
dinner. His favorite dish was pam
cakes and nolasses. One day his wife
brought him a large pancake and a
jug of molasses, and went down TO the
kitchen. Pretty soon she heard the
professor ring the bell
Why is 1T, Gretchen, that you bring
ME nothing to eat except molasses
Why have you brought me no pam
cake asked the absent-minded pro-
fessor.
'Ach, hiumel.'' exclaimed his wife.

l think I shall have to take excep-
tons to the statement in The Herald
of yesterday. that the caps now worn
by the police force gave the boys a de-
cidedly metropolitan appearance. From
my point of view they are Just about
as ugly as human ingenuity could con-
ceive. Take away the gold-washed
wreath and number, and you have a
piece of headgear for which you could
not find sale in a country where the
thermometer was 10 degrees below

HURDERED MS BABY BOY.
A Fathers Crime While the M other Was
at Church.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Oct. 15.-Haven
+. Winn killed his two-year-old son
this morning by cutting his throat with
a razor, and then committed suicide in
the same way. His wife obtained de-
cree for separate maintenance from the
Probate Court Wednesday and had been
given the custody of their only child.
She then went TO live with her father.
Since his wife left him Winn showed a
determination TO obtain possession OF his
child at any cost. He called frequently
at the house and tried to induce his wife,
by persuasion and threats, 10 live with
him again. She positively refused to do
so. and the refusal maddened Winn. He
had been given permission by the court
to see his child Sunday. and going to the
house this morning with razor, he was
allowed 70 enter and for several hours
he carried the baby up and down in the
sitting-room. His wife and her father
meantime had driven 10 church.
Just before II o'clock Winn began
TO act so strangely that Mrs Hecox. his
mother-in-law, became frightened, and
sent her son for assistance. He called
policeman, and on the way back met Mrs.
Becox, who told them that Wlnn had
killed his child and himself. He had
laid the baby on the bed and severed
the jusular vein with one stroke of the
razor, but the child had been able TO
crawl to the foot Of the bed where he died.
Winn had then gone into the sitting-room
and standing I'm front of a lOoking-glass,
had cut his throat, dying Instantly.

Providence, II. l., where he was the
treasurer of the Home Building Associa

this position and leave the city because
he forged the names Of two officers Of

just died under circumstances which
seem TO indicate that her death was due
10 the taking Of a seditz powder con-
trary TO directions. She was found un-
conscious on the floor, with her lips
covered with a white powder. A physi-
clan decided that she had died Of apo
plexy, brought on by a violent fit Of
coughing. on a table in the room was
found a glass partly filled with water,
containing a white sediment. Close by
were the familiar blue and white papers
OF seidlitz powders. The sediment in the
glass was the powder from one paper
only. 1t is thought that the girl swallow
ed one powder after the other, which
brought on violent coughing.
