WHY LYNCHING IS POPULAR

While students of sociology are casting about for an explanation of the prevalence of the lynching spirit let them glance at the case of young Durrant, the San Francisco mur- derer,' says the Chicago Chronicle.
 The Chronicle is correct. Here is man who has been convicted and sen- nenced after trial in which he was ably defended and in which he availed himself of all the safeguards which the law places around the prisoner whose guilt has not been proved. A jury of twelve men found h.m guilty and he was sentenced to be hanged. In most countries this would have been the end of the matter. In the United States it was only the begin ming. The conviction of Durrant in the San Francisco court was merely the opening skirmish in the legal bat tie. The case has besn fought through all the courts. One stay after dissolved after a full hearing and at last the highest tribunal in the nation decided that Durrant was properly convicted. It might reasonably be pre- sumed that this, at least, settled his fate and that the sentence of the law would be executed. But such a pre- sumption would be a mistaken one. Having carried the case from the low est court to the highest and having been defeated in all of them, Durrant' s attorneys merely changed their plea and began in the lowest courts again. Another stay of execution has been ob- tained and as the process can appar- ently be repeated ad minimum the murderer bids fair Ito die of old age if he can find money to employ ettor- neys to fight for him.

When the question of poverty arises Spain is not the only debt burdened nation on the political map. Italy has gradually declined into the posi- tion where its administrative officials find it necessary to retrench. Mis government, war and the great burden of a standing army has impoverished that nation In the attempt to keep pace with the more powerful Euro pean governments, Italy has virtually robbed itself. It is approaching a crisis that means disruption and rev olution, from which only the Wisest statesmanship and ablest inanciering can save it. The people have been taxed ito the limit of endurance, and the only thing that remains to do is to cut down the expenditures of gov ernment

GOSSIP OF NEW YORK.

New York, Nov 19.-The most en- phatic argument waged in support of the proposed small parks is that they can be used as playgrounds in a way that the big Central park cannot. It has been found that where the urchin is allowed to roam as sugges. ion prompts and is left to his own devices, broken trees and other injuries have indicated the direction of his course. Small playgrounds can be constructed which will be free of objects to arouse the predatory instincts of the boy,
 Weddings are such rare occurrences at old Trinity that the marriage of Miss Bertha Thompson and Ericsson F. Bushnell, an oratorio singer well known in musical circles, exciued an unusual amount of comment. The dabblers in stocks viewed with some surprise these spectators in matri- mony.

ROYAL TRANSATLANTIC.

Phrase making two or three generations
ago played an important part in French
politics. Louis XVI. had Il literary
prompter who used to prime him with
phrases and plan FIR him scenes such as
would excite the peoples admiration.
Your majesty will soon be going to the
races, y said this prompter one day. "You
will find notary entering the bets of two
princes of the blood: when you see him,
sire, make the remark: ''What is the use
OF this man? Ought there to be written
contracts between gentlemen? Their
words should be enough"
The scene came off-the prompter saw
to that-and the courtier exclams ::
What a happy thought. How kingly!
That is his style"
Another scene, more likely to impress
the populace, was planned by this promptcr
sledgng pleasure party was arranged or
the king. Just as it was abo 1t to start
several carts passed by, carrying wood to
the poor of Paris.
These are my sledgesn s1il Ionis,
pointing to the loaded carts, anu Il. de-
clined to join the party.
Talleyrand coined for Louis XVIII. the
remark which he was reported to lave used
on the day he entered Paris:
There is nothing changed; only a
frenchman the more in Paris. "
As a matter of fact the king did not
trouble himself to utter the phrase. but
lalIymnd inserted it in the Journals of
the day that the prople might nattrr them
selves that their king had forgotten the
past, and consequently there would be no
change.
Perhaps the most striking phrase uttered
by modern king was spoken by King
Humbert few Yeas ago. when the cholera
wis raging in Naples. He had been in
vlted by the municipality of Genoa to a
banquet. which he declined in these words
Men are feasting at Genoa; men nre dy-
