THE CASE OF TOMMY HAuM.

The comparatively trivial offense for
which Tommy Hamm was arrested and
placed in the county Jail, at the i%nstigation
Of his father. and the boys surroundings in
confinement. present a situation that should
not be possible in this or any other city.
Tommy's story of his home life bears the
stamp OF frankness. and will be very gen.
orally taken as true. He is not an incorri-
gible, but is regarded as something of a
superiority in his fathers household. That
he should be sent to jail and placed among
the hardened criminals confined there is an
outrage. Yet there are doubtless many
other cases quite as deplorable. Even were
he incorrigible. there should be some place
Of retention pending investigation of his
case.
Kansas City should make some provision
for the temporary care of boys under ar
rest-a refuge that would not have the
stigma of the police station or the Jail. and
ore free from the communicating in1u-
ences of these places OF Imprisonment. The
is not a new one, but it can not be
too frequently urged upon the consldera-
tor Of the city government.

ROMANCE AND REALITY.

The refusal OF Judge Alden. of Kansas
City. Kas. TO grant a divorce to Mrs.
Riney. whose husband is serving a sentence
In the Jefferson City penitentiary for steal
ing. will be very generally commended
among those who take any interest in the
case. Mrs. Riney was engaged to Riney at
the time of his arrest. but the marriage
did not take place until after the sentence
had been passed. and the ceremony was
performed in jail.
Tn romantic idea of lovers responsible
ties frequently leads to some such foolish
biunder as hat committed by Mrs. Riney
and Permitted by the man to whom she had
plighted her troth. A much better test of
the woman's devotion would have been to
await the expiration OF the time of i'm
prisonment and then marry him in spite of
his criminal record. If she still believed in
him.. Such a course would nave been at
once sensible n practical. and would have
possessed enough romance for most people
under the circumstances. She would doubt
less have been satisfied by this time that
her betrothed was unworthy of her pa
thence, and would have left him out of her
future considerations.
Jail and deathbed marriages may be very
well in story books and plays. but they are
extravagances of sentiment that generally
mean the permanent blighting of a life that
might have been spared. But people who
are caught by romance should stand by the
even though it be painful and I'M

ChainIe.s bicycles Ne1t.

From the Cleveland Leader.
Cuts. deep and wide. in the price of BIZ
cycles made by many prominent manu-
faCturers are only one of the signs which
show that the times are not good in the
wheel trade. No such profits have been
made this season as were reaped in 1895
and the early part of 1926. 1t seems safe
to conclude that for bicycles of the types
now in common use a permanent fan in
cost has been brought about by the diff

Let no One, however. pity the men who
make bicycles or imagine hat the end of
the story has been reached in devising
changes such as tempt riders to spend
money freely for new wheels. All the
signs indicate that I'm 1898 800 will again
be the price demanded for bicycles of the
most approved patterns and best reputa-
ton. Chainless wheels will be on the mar
ket. n everything that ingenuity and
energy can suggest will be done TO make
riders who take pride in their mounts
feel that they must have wheels OF the
new kind. That will insure a rich harvest
for the manufacturers.

great number of bicycIists at

market many thousands OF bicycles as
novel and as different from the old wheels
as the chainiess patterns will prove. After
the limit is reached in making and selling
wheels without chains some other seductive
device will be ready. perhaps.
Meanwhile. 1t is well to remember that

From the Philadelphia Record.
Mrs. B~allington Booth is a woman whose
personal influence is so great that she is
able to demonstrate the Gospel of good
will In quite remarkable fashion. She is
now going into prison work. with. Of course,
immediate results in enthusiastic converts
How long these will stand the test of time,
Of course, remains to be determined: but
there is one bit of sagacity in the Booth
arrangements for Hope hall which deserves
notice. This home for released prisoners

IS to be the mems private home. their pa
iron lady says; and all visitors except their
own friends are TO be excluded. They are
not to be spoken of, either. as "ex-con-
victs.''
This opens an interesting question. All
students of ~penology know that the most
difficult thing in the way of securing work
for discharged prisoners is to keep good
faith with the employer without putting
too deep a brand or these human speci-
mems Of prison-made goods. When the most
intelligent thief or forger has served out
his sentence it wou be the very mush
OF sentimentality in ar employer to leave
either check book or keys within easy
reach Of such a private secretary or lin

A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS.

David B. Hill. during his public career.
has been regarded more as a shrewd pol
itician than as a great statesman. But in
declining 10 follow his party of after
strange gods, the New York leader has

ciple and has earned a degree Of respecta-
bility which ne has not ordinarily enjoyed.
The public is therefore disposed to listen
with respectful attention to what he may
have to say regarding the state of the
country. especially when his words are wise
and truthful, as they are I'm the follow
ing quotation from one OF his recent ut
t~erances:
1T is in such times as these that dema-

much false doctrine taught pertaining TO
governmental functions: there is too much
encouragement of the spirit Of socialism
and all that it implies. including commun
istic and chimerical schemes for a social
democracy so called; there is too much
liberation OF disrespect for courts and con-
stituted authorities: there is too much
clamor for class legislation; there is too
much incubation Of the idea that men can
become rich without enort-by the mere
fat Of the government instead OF earning
wealth in the good old-fashioned way and
there is TOO much attention paid to cranks.

The New York ex-senator has made an
intelligent diagnosis OF the case. There is
too much Of all these things he has pointed
out as MS affecting the country and i'm
peding its progress and prosperity. But
the physician who diagnoses the case pre-
scribes no remedy. He doesn't undertake
TO say how the country is to be cured of
these manifold evils. Probably he doesn't
know. Probably the only cure possible is
