The wife of John Y. McKane. formerly
of Gravesend, N. Y, and now Of Sing Sing,
is reported to be at the point of death. She
broke down at the time OF his arrest, three
months ago. and has since suffered from
nervous prostration. She knows nothing of
his trial or conviction. the facts having
been carefully kept from her, but she in
c~essantly asks why he does not come home,
and if this is impossible, why he does not
write. One of the most distressing features
Of crime and ~evil-doing is the misery brought
upon innocent people. The criminal him
self rarely suffers for his acts as do men,
bers of his family. Mrs. McKane no doubt
felt the disgrace of her husbands arrest
more keenly than he did,; at all events, it's
effect upon her was more marked. Great
pity must be felt for the victims in such
cases.. but these results of crime are in
evitable. and if the offender against moral
and civil laws does not take thought for his
own the public, which must protect itself,
cannot step in to shield them.

acting in the matter Of ACCOMMODATIONS,
and are no longer willing to pay high rents
for dwellings which lack modern onven
fences and are not fitted up in the best
style. But while this is a good field for in
vestment, there is also room for other
classes Of buildings. The greater number OF
downtown Office blocks deserve the same
criticism which applies to rental residence
property. They are behind the times, being
i'll kept and without elevators. proper heat
ing and sanitary arrangements and other
improvements now considered essential. Ev-
cry one Of the few blocks which are COM
pletely equipped has every room occupied.
and applications Of would-be tenants far
outnumber the vacancies. Half a dozen
new blocks, well fitted UP. would probably
be easily we'll filled.
Another variety Of building of which In
dianapolis has none is a frst-class apart
ment house. People who board and who
do not care to live In hotels find very poor
accommodations in the way Of rooms.
Numbers of young men who wish to live
in respectable style and object to the quar-
tiers in downtown blocks which are likely
to bring them next door to disreputa6le
neighbors would welcome the chance TO
secure a suite of rooms in a well-kept and
vell-regulated building in a good neigh
borhood. Such blocks should be arranged
in suites of two and three rooms, with bath
aud closets, and, with dining-room facilities
and good janitor service, would unduuDied-
ly fill a long-felt want.
From the investors standpoint there was
never a better time for building than now,
labor and material being cheap. From the
standpoint of the citizen who wishes. while

and to improve the city, the opportunity

MODERN DWELLING HOUSES.

Building contractors in this city are said
for the coming season in their line of bus
mess. They report that it is the intention
of many persons with capital now lying
idle to engage in building more or less ex-
tensively. The plans. so far. relate mostly
TO dwellings for rental purposes. TO be
erected in various parts OF the city. Such
investments will undoubtedly prove profit
able, and to make them now shows good
financial judgment. There is always a de-
mand in Indianapolis for residences rent
ing at from SO to $40 a month which the
great complaint made by newcomers is the
difficulty Of finding good accommodations
for their families. Rents have been high,
but the houses to be had are. for the most
part, of inferior quality and by no means
equal TO what is furnished for the same
money in even larger cities. One cause for
this condition Of affairs is that u large
proportion Of the residents of the place are
owners of homes. and the modern and bet
ter class OF houses are built for their own
use. while the old ones which hey aban-
don are transformed into renting property
without the addition OF desirable improve
ments. The number OF persons who for
various reasons prefer TO rent rather than
to own property has largely Increased
within a few years; they are also more ex-

which is to hold its annual meeting here
In May, will be quite an event in club cir
cles. The union has met in several Of the
other towns of the State. and the occasions
have been greatly enjoyed. This is the first
time Indianapolis has been given the oppor-
tunity to entertain the organization, and
preparations are under way for offering the
visitors a cordial reception. This city has
the advantage of having in the Propylaerm
a place already provided for the entertain
ment of just such gatherings. and the labor
of the committee on arrangements is
lightened to that extent. Delegates and
other members of clubs throughout the State
are looking forward to their meeting in this
building, of which they have heard so much,
as one of the most interesting features Of
the occasion.

CONCERNING LOVE LETTERS.

A learned Judge In New York city, in de-
Gliding a case in which a young woman
sought to prove a common law marriage.
recently, wrote an opinion in which he said:
Words Of endearment in love letters are
never to be taken literally. The extrlva-
CANT use of such words, therefore, cannot
be held to conclude the defendant to their
literal meaning, even If he did write them
Now. this does not seem to be good rea-
soning. IT savors of begging the question.
When the learned judge declared that
words of endearment in love letters are
"never to be taken literally he implied that
they are exaggerated, overdrawn and I'M
true. But are they? Very often they are
not, either to the party of the first part
or the party Of the second part. In fact,
1t may be safely said of many. if not of
most love letters that nothing In the uni
verse is so profoundly true and full of
meaning as the expressions of endearment
in their pages. Doubt thou the stars are
fire: doubt that the sun doth move; doubt
truth to be a liar; but never doubt my
love-" has been the cornerstone of all love-
present 1t is essential to the happiness
of mankind ard the progress of ~civiiiza-
ton that lovers should nave absolute conf
dence in each other, and that each should
believe implicitly all that the other says.
This being the case, the public welfare de-
mands that the utmost faith and credence
should be put in love letters by the out
side world as well as by the parties imme-
diately concerned. Instead of declaring that
words of endearment in love letters are
never to be taken literally, the courts ought
to hold that no other writing is az solemn,
as weighty and as worthy of imnlicit be-
lief. Lovers and love making should he
encouraged as a means of adding to the
aggregate Of human happiness, and to this
end the courts should give the fullest weight
and effect to love letters. Every exclama-
ton, every apostrophe, every noun, every
adjective, especially the superlatives, every
poetic expression, every thought that
breathes and every word that burns-ail
should be accepted in a literal sense and
In the fullest significance. The New York
judge who wrote the opinion quoted from
above is probably a crusty old bachelor
who never wrote or received a love letter
in his life, and very likely never exper-
fenced the great passion. Let no such man
be trusted. He is fit for treasons, strate-
gems and spoils. -

The Detroit Tribune gives some figures
from the forthcoming annual report of the
Commissioners of Labor in Michigan which
show TO how great an extent the iron-min-

One often sees or hears the statement
that "the wrong facts were given" In the
treatment OF economic and other topics
statements and assumptions have so far
taken the place OF facts that they are
often cited in their place; still, there can
be no such thing as a wrong or ''unre-
''able" fact. A fact is an occurrence. The
occurrence may be tainted with wrong or
Injustice. but the thing which actually
took place. that is. the occurrence, cannot
be incorrect or unreliable. Something else
may be asserted as a fact, but If it is not
a correct statement of what occurred it is
not a fact. The clear recognition of this
definition is important because, in the prac-
teal investigation OF economic conditions.
facts are the only things from which cor
rect conclusions can be derived.

WOman's Wiles,

A sailor landed on a cannibal isle,
. In the far-off southern sea,
And he said to himself, with a smoker and
a smile,
I'm glad that the Boweree
Was where 1 was born and where I was
raised,
For these niggers are up to snuff.
And they won't eat me, either boiled or
praised,
For they know that I'm too tough"
SO up the shore, with a confident air,
He went, those folks TO meet,
And they sized him up, right then and
there.
AS much too tough to eat.
Then the old kings daughter, up spake she,
In the tongue of her native land,
And said, Dear pa, you'd better let me
Take this tough young man in hand"
So around Jacks neck her arms she flung,
81 IKE a springtime dove.
And the sailorman, who, though tough, was
young,
Soon found himself much in love.
Oh, alack and alas, for woman's wiles,
For he saw not her aim,
And under the influence of her smiles,
Quite tender he became.
So they cooked him up, in the highest art,
Down there on the sea-washed shore,
And the maiden, Of course, received the
heart,
Which the same he had given her before.
