An Odd Linnet

1t Is generally believed that the linnet
is not long-lived bird. Mrs. j. c. Sails
bury, residing at 1911 South Hill street, has
a linnet that was captured IN It's infancy
on Temple street near Bunker Hill in 1879,
and is therefore 10 years old. The little
birding was picked up from the ground
under its nest, where 1t had fallen when
only day old. Its mother abandoned 1t,
and Mrs. l.. M. Holt, who found it, raised
1t by hand and gave 1t to her sister, Mrs
Salisbury who has kept 1t ever since. 1t
Is now so old and feeble that 1t cannot sit
on the higher perch in It's cage for fear of
falling off. If it lives till the next pres.-
dental election It will be old enough to
vote.

THE ANARCHISTS CRIME
Sermon Before the Union Reform
League on Austria's Tragedy

Yesterday at the Union Reform League
Rev. d. w. p. Bliss spoke on the relation
of society 10 crime, his address being oc-
casioned by the dastardly assassination of
the empress Of Austria. His text was
Romans 1910 Love is the fulfilling of the
law" He said: mo amount OF love can
replace law. The man who appeals to
physical force must be sternly and imme-
diately repressed. Love fulfills law, but
does not replace 1t. The codling Of GRIM
inals is not love. 1t Is getting harder and
harder to convict criminals. In some parts
Of the country lynch law is replacing civil
law. All this should be changed. We
need a revival of obedience to law. In
America the corporations are the chief
law breakers. Men like Huntington and
Rockefeller are our anarchists. The
Southern Pacific railroad is the chief an
arch.st,c institution in California. 1t elects
Judges and laughs at justice. Corporate
wealth, by It's violations of law, produces
the ignorant law breaker and teaches the
people to despise cur courts.
We must make our penal institutions
really reformatory. At present most of
our jals and prisons are schools in vice
with compulsory attendance. Our reform
atores are deformatories. At the Ell
mira reformatory the convict is not cod
died, but he is built up and educated in
body, mind and heart. He Is taught a
trade and not allowed TO leave the reforma-
tory till he has proved himself competent
and worthy. Then a position Is obtained
for him and he is sent there on probation
Only II worthy is he finally parolled. This
system of education and of securing work
rescues so per cent of the convicts.
We need to do more for the honest poor
man than for the convict. We need to
give him work and to teach him a trade.
Some of our boys today commit petty
crimes in order to be sent to reformatory
to be taught trade. What comment on
our civilization! Let us establish like
Germany and France, good trade and in
dustrial schools for the poorest. Let work
be had for all. and crime will largely d.sap-
pear from among the poor Then punish
the criminals, rich and poor. So shall
love fulfill the law. The anarchist who
throws bomb and the railroad corpora
tlon that nominates governor or buys
judge are alike the foes of soc!ey and to
be relentlessly punished"
