The Christmas festival comes again with
out having lost any of its powerful hold
upon the civilized peoples of the worlt; in
fact although this is busy age. the day
will generally be greeted with an Increase
of hearty fervor. II is the oldest of the
worlds holidays and, no matter what
changes time may work, the probabilities
are that il will continue to be the greatest
of holidays until the coming of that I'M
probable and far-distant era when all OF
light and goodness and peace have van
ished from this sphere of ours. 1t Is the
most cosmopolitan of holidays; 1t belongs
to all continents. In every land where
there is even semblance of recognition for
the Christian religion, Christmas day has
a place.
II is a day that practically compels char
ity-the charity of thought, the charity OF
deed. The spirit that underlies the day
has wrought out many delightful customs,
customs that issue from the central
thought that the event upon which the day
is founded was of itself fulfilled promise OF
a great gift to the whole world. Holidays
that are peculiarly national will be found
in all countries, but it is indsputably true
that the Christmas holiday everywhere
outranks all others Reason for this is not
as must certainly arouse the best thoughts
and the kindliest deeds of men.
1t is an unselfish festival, for while the
affiuent enjoy to the full the good, season.
able cheer, the tendency is toward un:oin-
nor unselfshness; hearts are opened that
there may be happiness In places where
the light of Christmas is ,ldom anything
more substantial than n reflection. 1t has
been intimated that there is decadence in
the general observance Of Christmas, but
the contention has failed TO carry conNic-
ton with ii, for as the years come and so
there is steady Increase in the tendency,
especially in this commercially-ambitiou
nation. to stop just once in all the year
and breathe deeply of the sentiment that
comes with Christmas.
Never can the day be lost unless history
shall be forgotten and the human heart be
wonderfully and disastrously changed;
never will the holly-berry and the mistle-
toe ard the evergIeens fail to charm or 10
revive all that is worthy of revival in
material man. Its principal feature Is the
btnevolence which has come to be a5so-
GATED with it; the handspring of charity
and good. There is but one Christmas day
in every year, yet the influences to which
those twenty-four sacred hours give birth
move actively and with great blessing
through every other day on the calendar.

Even the most stupid Of murderers hav-
ing realized some time ago that the insan-
ity plea was of little or no avail, 1t was
of course necessary that new line of de-
Tense of value to the deeply-depraved
should be sought and found. Some years
ago a French murderess insisted that the
crime she committed was one for which
she was in no sense responsible as she was
under the hypnotic influence of a man who
insisted upon absolute obedience and who
successfully controlled her until the vic
tim was dead. Rut the French jury evil
IDENTIFY thought but little of the prisoners
plea, for the verdict rendered and the SEN
tence imposed were just what they would
have been had the art of hypnotism been
entirely unknown. The inability of the
Partisan jury to appreciate the ingenuity
of that defense may have worked discour-
agement for awhile, but doubling criminals
may pluck up courage and look forward
hopefully to speedy freedom, for out in
Wellington, Kan, a slayer of fellowman
has been acquitted in spite of his having
confessed his crimnality. The theory up
on which the defense was based was that
Anderson Gray so operated upon the
weaker mind of Thomas Mcdonald that
Mcdonald laid in wait for Thomas Patton
against whom Gray had a grudge-and
shot him from ambush. To the Kansas
jury that seemed like a reasonable sort
of a plea. so Mcdonald is al liberty. Sug-
gestions to the vicious may be somewhat
out of order, but in view of the vast
amount of brain work that has been put
in on endeavors to save the lives of some
pretty worthless people it does seem
strange that counsel for the defense have
never suggested that the murdered per-
son hypnotised the murderer and compelled
the crime rather than commit suicide
Against such a defense as that 1t would
be more than difficult for even the most
astute prosecutor to make much head
way, for his best witness would neces-
sarily be absent. The country is tired of
the insanity dodge. 1t must be supplied
with something novel.

The wonderful part of the LeXow inyes-

to be interminable. There would seem to

Captain Schmittberger's shameful confess

There were about fifty-three toilerS en-
ployed upon the city post-office building
today. Long ago it was supposed that
fifty-three thoroughly active mechanics
might succeed in completing the structure
by June :, 1891, but the testimony of events
has completely upset the premature and
over-liBeral calculation. The Treasury De
partment has announced that the building
will be ready for occupancy in less than
three years from now, but 1t will take a
larger force than hfty-three men a day to
fulfil the departmental promise; August Il,
1906 is a much more likely date. Two
years and ten months have gone by since
the work was commenced, but there is still

enable IL to go back into Mr.. Cookers off,
cial career, but, for the sake of truth 1T is
to be hoped that there will be no limita-
ton to the inquiry. Captain Schmittberger
said very plainly two things that promise
great secrets to be divulged later. He ac-
kncwledged that the rank and file of the
police department had nothing to do with
law-breaking saloon men, who had gone
over their heads and made Germs with
Tammany Hail." Maybe Mr.. Croker can
throw some light On this mysterious trans
action. 1t must have been great blow to
the hard-working ward-men to have such
lucrative source of revenue cut off. 1t
must have seriously Handicapped the hon
est captain in his efforts to raise money
enough to pay for his promotion. All was
not serene ana prosperous, it would seem,
with the force. There was a dark lining
to the golden cloud. Then, too the captain
alluded TO the curious Immunity enjoyed by
the keeper of ii certain disreputable resort
which prevented not only moestation, but
blackmail A hint is thrown out-nay
mere than a hint indeed-that certain
of the wearers of New York's erinine, sit
ting, maybe, in judgment on just such wo-
men every week, were in the habit of visit
ing this establishment, and that they had
cast the protecting folds of their judicial
robes about her house. To the police,
therefore. there was positive bar against
utilizing fer nefarious gains for their own
enrichment. 1t ought not to be that these
judges should be preserved from invcstiga-
ton. Exposure, at least, should be visited
upon them, whether the offence intimatcd
is sufficiently grave to warrant their i'm
parchment or not. The purifying process
must not be permitted to be checked now.

Nest of Students OF Herr Most Organ
lied TO Burn Buildings.

Nest of Students of Herr Most Organ.
lied 60 Burn Buildings.
CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-The Fire Depart
ment claim to have unearthed nest of
students of Herr Most, organized to burn
buildings for the anarchistic sentiment
and for revenue from insurance. Seven
people were held to-day to await Grand
Jury action. They are Karl Herlitz, Mrs.
Karl HerlitZ. August Nelson, William
Scharf, John Baalnon, August Shahosky,
John Naumann. Many finely constructed
bombs have been found, some attached to
delicate clock work.
Giving his testimony against Herlitz
and his wife, Inspector Conway told a
remarkable story. He stated that he had
indisputable evidence to show that an Or
ganiZed gang of students of Herr Most's
theories and methods had been operating
in Chicago and vicinity. They had been
carrying out their theories by burning or
blowing up houses to secure insurance.
After the proceedings IN court Herlitz
made full confession. He said he came
here from New Orleans five years ago,
and met a man named Scharf, who in
structed him in anarchistic doctrines.
Later Scharf suggested that the most
rational way to secure reversals for capi-
taliStS was to get after the insurance COM
panies. Bombs and other anarchistic
paraphernalia were adopted for use, and
operations were commenced. Scharf did
the preliminary work, but left the actual
firing to Herlitz, and was to receive per
cent. OF the money received from the in
surance companies. Herlitz said that
Scharf bad many other pupils. and de-
rived big revenue on the per cent. 1t
is claimed that the compensation of Her.

sDonsible Is 500,
