POVERTY BEGETs CRIME.

Once the line is crossed between
pauperism and crime, the downward
course is easy, and another criminal
is added to the list. The man is
blameworthy, of course. Men of
character and moral purposes will
fight their battle honorably under
any stress. But it is necessary to
discriminate between the men who
are deliberate criminals and the man
who adopt crime simply from weak
desperation and with the hope of
returning later to lives of decency.
Entirely apart from moral consider
alton, any step which will diminish
poverty is to be regarded also a step
to reduce crime. The human being
will not stand the crushing process
any better than the traditional worm.
st is part of society's duty to see
that the crushing is not carried too
far.--Chicago Record.

Creative Power Of the Kinetosccpe.

An odd experiment with the
kinetoscope took place not long
ago in Boston. The subject was
o man eating dinner, and the film,
prepared especially for the occas-
ion, was of unusual length, 80 that
the whole performance could be
recorded. The man entered the
room, and, seating himself at a
table, proceeded to cut up the food.
The motion of the fork from the
plate to his lips was carefully re-
corded, until the last morsel Of
food had vanished. Then he arose
and walked out of the room, leav-
ing nothing on the table but bare
dishes. The series Of pictures was
then reversed. It showed the
man entering the room, walking
backward. He sat down at the
table, upon which there was moth
ing but bare dishes, and proceeded
to extract food from his lips until
he had filed the potato dish with
potatoes and gradually put togeth-
or a stake on the platter before
him. Then he calmly backed out
of the room and the waiter did
likewise with the meal that the
man had apparently created

The action of the Republican members
OF the Delaware legislature cannot be ac-
corded approval. The provocation is great
and the sting of disappointment keen, but
the highest court of law in the state OF
Delaware has decided against them, and
IL Is their duty, especially as lawmakers,
TO submit. They must abide by the deci-
sion in the end and only a bad precedent
for their political opponents and bad ex-
ample TO their constituents is set by con-
tumaclous behavior.
