kNtCKERBOCKER.

Though Baron Maurice de Hirsch was
Of distinguished ancestry and the in
heritor of great wealth, his memory
will be revered for what he was and
what he did. The world cannot but
admire the genius of man who had
his phenomenal grasp Of great affairs,
who could seize opportunities before
they were conceived by the ordinary
mind, and who could go unerringly
to the accomplishment Of stupendous
undertakings in which millions were in
volved. But 1t was not this rare power
that insures the lasting fame Of Baron
Hirsch. The true nobility of the man
appeared in his intense sympathy for
the poor, the unfortunate and the op-
pressed which found eloquent express
sion in the gift of millions for their
relief. He was munificent giver,
but without ostentation and without
thought less worthy than that Of ame-
lorating the condition Of his afflicted
race. His philanthropy was on the
same magnificent scale as his opera
tons In the business world and the
ability that guided the one was only
outshone by the anselfish charity that
prompted the other The oath of his
son may have been the Christening az
Fiction that stirred the heart of the
father to deeds Of mercy and human
ity; but the man who could be so
moved possessed all the innate virtues
so admired in the career Of the dead
baron. The man who would give forty
millions to one good cause and make
two continents the beneficiaries of his
bounty, deserved all the prosperity
that came to him, and left a lesson
that the rich men of the world should
take to themselves. There could be
no greater worldly happiness than he
enjoyed in the consciousness Of duty
done and the blessings his charity IN
voked.

case relieved of the obligation to fur
nish homo for his wife, but after
that she must accept his home or none

So long as all property in this state
is liable for the amount decreed by
the courts in favor of a litigious wife,
there is no moral basis for any i'm
prison ment at all. Even in an action
for absolute divorce a defendant hns-
band ought not to be convicted with
out trial of immoral conduct and i'm
prisoned therefor. And certainly, in
nm action for limited divorce or sepa-
ration, where simple domestic infelic-
ity is alleged no court should be per-
mittcd on ex parte statements to inter-
iere with the liberty of the defendant.
Imprisonment without conviction by .
jury of ones peers is contrary TO the
American system Of government, and
the exceptions to the rule should be
lessened, not increased in number by
legislation. Alfred G.. Stokes must
