THE case of Frog Davis, a young man
hung on the 18th inst. at Coowees-
cooWee, l. T., for the murder of Sheriff
James Musgrove, should be warning
to all young men who think it manly
to be tough" and who have ambitious
longings to emulate the sanguinary
deeds of the Daltons, Cooks, and others
of like ilk. Davis, who was half
breed Cherokee Indian, served a two
years sentence here for an assault COM
mitted in the Indian Territory, being
sentenced by the United States court
at Fort Smith, Ark. He was discharged
on expiration of sentence March 18th
of the present year, it being just six
months from the date of his release to
the day of his ignominious death on the
scaffold. Perverted ideas of the duties
of life, and an ambition to become
celebrated as 'bad man" cost Davis
his life.

THE REWARD OF HONESTY

WHY WILL men follow dishonest
methods when there are so many ex-
amples to prove the truth Of the old
saying that honesty is the best
policy?" Of course men who are
honest only through motives of policy
and there are great many of this class
in the world-are not on much higher
moral plane than the convicted thief,
but If one is not possessed of innate
honesty and the high sense of honor
which makes him scorn to do base
deed, let him at least be honest for
policy's sake. The latest example
which has come to our notice of small
capital of honesty yielding large pecun-
larry returns, is that of an Indiana
merchant. While sweeping out his
store he found a nickel on the floor.
Most men would have tossed the
nickel into the till and eased their
conscience with the thought that the
amount was so small it was not worth
bothering about trying to find the
owner, but this honest merchant did
not reason thus, and he straightway
went and inserted an advertisement
in a paper stating that "a sum of
money had been found in his store
which the owner would receive by
calling and stating the amount" Peo-
pie rushed to the store to announce the
loss of money ranging in amounts
from one dollar up to thousands. The

Hope Deferred-TOrturc.

In SPITE of the advancement of our
modern civilization, pertaining to the
law and the administration thereof.
there are some who declare, and posi-
bly, with reason, that in this we are not
so advanced after all; that the modern
method of criminal procedure-the
punishment of crime-the extreme
Difference to meaningless technicali-
ties, resulting in hope deferred, is but
in sense satirical, and legalized tor
ture.
Several centuries ago, refined inquis-
itors, learned in the administration of
torture, grew weary of ordinary phys
lcal torment to their victims-such as
disemboweling, quartering, etc., and
sought for a keener and more prolonged
punishment--a punishment admins
tered without the shedding of blood-so
they introduced one of the most terrible
OF all tOrtures, mind torture, or the pro-
longation of hope
While the old idea of punishment was
a ''life for life,' we now have a new
theory. The ancients found that the
Immediate taking of life was not so Sc
we're as the punishment of suspense, or
deferred hopes, and law today, while it
may not, and perhaps does not prescribe
so refined means of torture, certainly
sanctions it by allowing the decisions of

ton, to be set aside on the slightest

of couple of thousand volts, is one of
our most modern methods, although for

and physicians, butwhat difference does
it make to the victim himself, so long
as the end comes quick? But does it
come quick? The man in the ancient
dungeon found the door of his cell left
open, and the sentinel asleep-all of
which had been carefully planned to
torture him with the hope of escape-a
delusion. But today the convict under
a death sentence is led to believe he will
get new trial, reprieve or a commu-

right, Of course, that man charged
with crime should have every posi-

it and the laws intent is to allow it. But

Lincoln's apprehensive distrust of
marriage is revealed in some extremely
interesting letters from the great Pres
ident in the October Ladies' Home
Journal, in which John Gilmer Speed
discusses ''Lincoln's Hesitancy to
Marry" The letters are given publicity
for the first time, and are addressed to
LincOln's most intimate friend, Joshua
Speed. Edward S. Martin presents
review of the various theories advanced
by scientists in the effort to definitely
locate the Garden of Eden site, and
shows how far from solution is the
problem. DR.. Parkhurst's October
article treats of "Religion in the Fam
ily,'' and is one of the most forcible ar
guments that has come from his pen
"The Woman Who Most Influenced

illustrating both. In the same issue
are suggestions for evening parties and

papers, guide to scrap book making,
etc. Ruth Ashmore discusses "The
Girl and Her Church." and Maria Par
loa "The Science Of French Cooking"
while the usual attractive departments
are complete. In its offerings Of poetry
the October Journal is unusually en-
gaging. Eugene Fields Dream Ship
is, perhaps, his best effort along the
more ambitious lines of verse making:
w. L. Taylor has exquisitely illustrated
the poem. The best works of such ar
fists as W. L. Taylor, B. West Cline
dinst, Frank 0. Small, Alice Barber
Stephens, Abbey E. Underwood and
F. Schuyler Mathews are shown in the
current issue. The October Journal
blends interest, entertainment, instruc-

and is the magazine par excellence for

William Henry Hurlbut, who died a
fortnight ago, was one Of the most
noted men of the day. He edited the
New York World when it was the mar
vel of metropolitan journalism and he
disappeared from London, a few years
ago, to avoid arrest on charge of per-
jury in connection with a noted breach
Of-promise case. His career is dis
cussed at length by the San Francisco

his word,
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1895-09-26

WE received an invitation from
the Colorado Press Committee to visit
Canon City on Fruit Day to witness
the exercises of the day, and to enjoy
the lucious fruits produced there. We
regret to say that we are kept so busy
doing time that it will be impossible
for us to accept the invitation.
