THE HOUSE OF ORD
ETY. bodies and faces deeply marked with
dissipation or else as stupid, heavy rus
tics. Englishmen have laughed at these
caricatures without believing in them,
but when the Irish home rule bill was
passed by the commons in September
last n 400 peers, the largest number on
record, went up to London tOvote against
1t in the house of lords it was seen fOl
the first time by the people that the COM
&c artists are right-that the British peer
IS a sorry fellow in the main. untitled by
mental endowment or special training
to make or obstruct the laws of a great
and busy nation. This is putting the
facts then found ont by the British peo-
pie very mil,tiy.
One observer described the thrOng of
peers as comparable only with the as
semblagrs that are to be found in tails
and almshouses and hospitals for the in
a The presence Of such intellectual
giants as Salisbury, Rosebery and Play
fair in this crowd Of men notable for
what the same writer speaks of as 1.-The
senility of youth, the wreck Of middle
life, the lettering imbecility of dissipat-
ed age, served but to furnish the con-
trast between hope and despair"
There is not space here to 90 into the
details of the previous conflicts between
the lords and the commons, but some of
the more important may be mentioned.
In every case the lords yielded or were
cocrced by the sovereign acting under
pressure from the people. This coercion
has at times been effected by creating a
sufficient number of peers favorable to
the ground taken by the commons to
make Il majority of the same mind in the
house of lords. Queen Anne did this
when the lords refused to assent to the
treaty Of peace signed at Utrecht, but it
was then necessary to create but a dozen
new peers.
In 1892 King William " did the same
thing, the difference between the houses
beng over the reform bill which ex-
tended the franchise to some hundreds Of
thousands, abolished more than 50 rot
ten %bOrOughs" of IA few dozen voters
each and simplified the method Of voting.
But the king did not yield till he had
been hOoted in the street and the houses
of a number of mobiles We're burned. He
created rs peers favorable to the bill. and
many who were ~unfavorable ~refrained
from voting. In 1916 the houses dis
agreed over the corn laws, but the lords
finally yielded, as they also did in 1868
over the dlsestablishment of the Irish
church, in 1881 on the Irish question and
in 1894 over enlargement of the franchise.
1t is worthy of note that in 1884 il was
Joseph Chamberlain, now with the lords
in sentiment, who coerced them into
yielding to the commons.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug. A small
,tow-headed boy, with big blue eyes and
freckles almost as big, sat in the central
police station last night surrounded by
q group of happy police officials and
detectives. His name is Marcus Krok-
serg and the officers were glad to see
him.
Marcus is trifle over nine years old,
but he has made an amount OF trouble
that could scarcely be expected of one
so young. Besides making trouble for
the police force he came near burning
up a portion of Milwaukee en- several
occasions.
1t is Marcus idea of fun to set fire to
barns and steal horses. He has been at
this work for over a month and would
still be at it if detectives had not cap
tured him. He has caused six fires that
he remembers of and ran away with
something like dozen horses. Two of
the fires were set ON windy night and
but for prompt action by the firemon
would have resulted ia serious conflagra-
tons
In the horse stealing line he was an
adept. He would jump into buggy,
drive out into the country, turn the
horse loose and trudge back home.
Twice he sold rigs to men for so cents,
saying he had just found the horse
straying down the street.
The boyis too young to be sent to the
reform school, but steps will be taken
to place him in some charitable institu-
ton. His latest feat was to steal purse
containing $35 from Mrs. Fain.

A few weeks before Lorber's trial

for Burbank, and the fact that he dis.

the feeling against him.
Popular feeling grew so strong against
him that there was talk of lynching.
He was counting Mary Weeks, but
her sister Kate took a dislike to him and
did all she could to embitter Mary
