The Prosecution.

What is the duty of the state in a
legal trial? The prosecution is ap-
pointed for the state to see that no
criminal escapes the just penalty of the
law. 1t is undoubtedly the duty of the
prosecution to prove the accused guilty
and convict him if he really is so. But
apparently the legal methods of GRIM
inal Jurisprudence have degenerated
into something very different.
1t is well-knOwn principle of law
that every accused is to be considered
innocent until he has been proven
guilty. In ninety-nine cases out of a
hundred here in America in our time,
the attorney for the state practically
reverses this principle and in all he says
and does assumes that the prisoner is
guilty until he is proved innocent.
Justice, mercy and common sense alike
declare that the state has no interest in
convicting prisoner. Its function is
simply to see that justice is done. If
an accused is innocent, it is far more
the states business to clear that &C.
cused than to try to convict him. But
in the practical operation of our law
the prosecutor evidently takes it for
granted that his sole business is to con-

or innocent. The courtroom becomes
simply a stage for the prosecutor to
show his elOquence and trickery in gain
ing his case and getting glory for him
self, irrespective of whether the &C.
cused is guilty. That is apparently a
side issue. When the prosecution be-
comes persecution, as it does too often
at the present day, it is time for a
chango-EC

MAYNE IN TROUBLE.

Charged by Jevne with Passing Bogus
Fred E. Mayne was arrested about
9:3o O'Clock lastevening by Detectives
Auble and Benson, and locked up in the
central police station. Mayne was ar
reatad .nn-a .warrapt ehaFSiBg. hJilma EgJjtbl
embezzlement was also made against
him. Several days ago, it is alleged, he
obtained some goods from Jevne, the
grocer, on some personal checks, which
proved to be fraudulent.
On last Thursday Mr.. Jevne swore to
complaint before Justice Owens,
charging Mayne with misdemeanor in
obtaining money under false pretenses.
Mayne could not be found, and evi.
IDENTIFY was out OF town for day or two,
but on Saturday last he hired single
team from the Tally-Ho stables for the
purpose, he stated, of joining in the
Elysisn park drive. The team did not
return, and on investigation, Mr.. Hart
zell, the proprietor of the stables, states
that Mayne sold the rig to Duffin, the
ticket broker, on that evening, receiv-
ing $125 for it. When taken to the
station last evening Mayne had $40 in
his possession.
About one year ago Mayne left the
City of Paris. where he had BEEN en-
ployed, occupying responsible position
in the store.

Hazel Curtis Tries to Join the Great

About O'Clock last evening a young
woman, whose name was given as Hazel
Curtis, attempted suicide by swallowing
half ounce of laudanum. The incl
dent occurred in the Olympic lodging
house on East First street, between
Spring and Los Angeles streets,
where the young woman rooms. A
physician with stomach pump was
summoned, and the rash young woman
was pumped back to earth.
1t seems that while the landlady was
temporarily absent several OF the
dodgers got up little dance in the front
parlor, one of the roomers furnishing
the music for the whirl with an accor-
deon. Mrs. Hazel's friend, it appears,
was going through the mazes
and intricacies of the Boston
dip with another woman, which
aroused HazePs jealousy. There being

she was pronounced out of danger.

the many expressions of gratitude
showed how much the repast was ap-

who had previously enjoyed the meal,

Psychical Research Society Formed
Last Evening.
A meeting of men and women inter-
ested in psychical research was held at
Illinois hall yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Hamlin Garland, who is presi-
dent of the American Psychical society,
with headquarters at Boston, stated
that the object OF the meeting was to
start branch of the parent society to
nureue Investigations here and make re-
ports, which would be printed ia

branch was strictly in the order OF in.

late facts upon which some scientific de-
duction could be made. Spiritualists

would be tree from suspicion OF bias.
| Quite an extended discussion then
ensued, live interest being manifested

an effort was made to have known Spir-

This was resolutely voted down, how
ever. and the platform of the society
was declared to be the getting OF facts,
without lear or favor, and the iHTestiga-
ton of the causes OF the phenomena in
strictly judicial fashion; to treat this
branch OF psychology in the same spirit
as an inveitigation OF geology or kindred
sciences.
The election of officers of the Los An.
