WHICH WILL PREVAIL

1t 10 not yet certain that the Const!tu-
tional Convention will reject the propo-
sition to prohibit any statutory limita-
ton of the amount Of damages to be
given by jury In case OF the loss OF
human life. The Committee reported
against the prohibition. giving as their
reason for Its rejection the plea that
the subject Is one proper to leave to the
Legislature. But the Convention IN to
vote on the acceptance of the report
this evening. and there In some eXpecta-
ton that the majority may refuse to
concur.
The question Ii very simple one.
Outside the argument that 1t ID incon-
sistent with a wise and Just policy 10
put any arbitrary Limitation on the
amount Of damages to be assessed for
loss OF life or personal injury In any
case. the fact Is plain that 1t is incon-
sistent to allow a jury to give such an
amount as may seem adequate for thu
loss Of an arm and to be restricted as
to the sum It shall assess for the loss
OF a human life The value Of q mans
life to his family varies according to
circumstances.
The corporations alone are interested
In retaining the limitation and In de-
festing the proposed constitutional prohi-
bition. The result OF to-night's vote will
AFFORD fair test of the control the
railroad corporations have over the Con-
vention. Reason. common sense and Jus
tice demand the rejection OF the Com
mittee's adverse report. The railroad
corporations alone demand Its accep-
lance. Which will prevail?

Moth patches rarely yield to external
treatment alone, and one of the standard
remedies is taraxacum, ~ ,extraet Of

An Old Maids Auction.

An original entertainment Is raging
just now for charitable purposes in New
England towns, and the fiippant- mind
ed may try to say something funny in
this connection. 1t Is styled "A Chsst-
nut Party and Old Maids Auction" A
number OF the prettiest young ladies are
dressed in quaint spinster style and auc-
toned off. An aristocratic church In
Pawtucket. X. l., made quite a sum Of
money and had a jolly time with one Of
these auctions. With a witty auctionesr
there is chance for fun. The highest
price paid at one party was $3.50 for .
very popular "spinster," while at an
other church prices ranged from 10 cents
to So cents

L. Murray discusses the less" as ap-
piled to some feminine professions and
not to others, and asks why, IL =
feminine termination is applied 10
some. 1t should not be to all?
Answer: The only possible reply to this
is that custom at first prescribed such
termination. and, later good authority
decided that it was unnecessary and
cumbersome to the language. Unques-
tionably the "ess' will be dropped al
together after a time.
