lawyers. Every term there are hun
dreds Of cases tried In which one party
knows he is entirely in the wrong, but
hopes to get the better of his oppo-
nent by some slip of the law.
THE root of the trouble he went
on, is that people have got their
morals mixed. Nine tenths of the peo-
pie think thst nothing is wrong unless
the law says it Is. If they should hap
pen to land in a country where steal
ing was VI Known. and where, of course,
there would be no laws against IT.,
they would feel justified in stealing.
Now, laws don't make crimes; crimes
make laws. If there wasn't law on
the statute books 1t would still be
wrong to kill, steal. cheat or commit
any other crime, but you can't get peo-
pie to understand that. Any mean,
overbearing, tricky or wrong action
that the law does not absolutely for
bid they will do; the Inherent sense Of
justice which is supposed to lurk in
every mans heart is largely a myth

WHY BOOTH ESCAPED.
Farmer Thought Some One Should
Have stopped the Stage.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
The morning after the assassination
Of President Lincoln the telegraph
operator Of a small town in Ohio read
a passing dispatch which conveyed the
sorrowful information to him. This
speedily spread through the surround
ing country and at II o'clock, when the
mail train was due, nearly 100 men had
congregated to buy a morning paper.
AS a matter of course not single
paper remained and all were in despair,
until some one remembered that the
postmaster was a regular subscriber
and that the mail bag must contain q
morning newspaper addressed to him.
The coveted paper found, the opening
of the mail was postponed, while the
aged postmaster proceeded to read to
the people who had crowded into the
long store the details of the murder. In
the front rank of the little circle that
had, by innate courtesy, been left be-
fore the reader, stood a very patriotic
but ignorant old man, who was ever
making pertinent suggestions.
The voice of the reader faltered more
than once as he read the account, now
SO familiar to all Americans. Finally
he reached the point where 1t was said
of Booth that he "shrieked out Sic
semper tyrannis,' leaped on the stage
and made his escape"
Throwing his old poke hat upon the
floor the patriotic old man lifted his
hand aloft and shouted:
Good gracious! Why didn't some
body have sense enough to stop the
Stage?"

NOISY NATIONS.
China and the United States Alik'
Noted in This Respect.

China and the United States Alike
Noted in This Respect.
From the New York Mail and Express.
1t seems strange that two nations so
antipodal in the matter Of ideals as
the United States and China should
share the distinction Of being great
noise-loving people. Yet 1t Is fact
that the two countries consume nearly
all the firecrackers each year, manu-
featured by the wives and children of
the Chinese cracker merchants. En-
gland annually buys small quantity
of the explosives. Other countries take
only infinitesimal amounts. Here in
America the firecracker is the small
boys legitimate medium for express
ing his patriotic approval Of great
national event. His enthusiasm ex-
ponds itself in a day, and consequently
the noise of countless numbers of ex-
ploding crackers lasts but short
time.
Not so in the Orient. There the use
of ffrecrackers is not limited by age or
position Their use is universal and
has been as far back as history re-
cords. 1t is likely that in the begin
ming they were used to frighten away
evil spirits. But as the country par
TALLY emerged from its dense ignor-
ance, and shook off part of Its load
of superstitions, the cracker became
an expression of good will and of GER
emonious compliment. Now the ex-
ploding Of firecrackers is as much Of
an incident at wedding festivities in
China as the throwing of rice or old
shoes is here. Not only is the mar
riage feast enlivened by the cracker,
but births and funerals, religious, civil
and military ceremonies bring the
cracker into play Also they are used
at New Years to salute persons about
to make a Journey and, in fact, on all
occasions out of the ordinary routine.

TWO PRICELESS STONES.
They Are Set Into the Walls of Chi.
cago Churches


From the New York Mail and Express.
There are two stones built into the
walls Of two Chicago churches which
should make both edifices famous
throughout the length and breadth of
the land; yet even many of the wor-
Slippers at these places know nothing
of the location in the wall Of these
silent historians or of the stories they
could tell. Upon one Of these stones
the feet of Servetus rested when he
was burned at the stake, martyr to
Unitarianism; upon the other the feet
Of the Pilgrims rested when thew set
foot in the new world-it is a piece
Of that most blessed of all stones, Ply
mouth Rock, the foothold Of liberty.
These two churches, though near
neighbors, on Dearborn avenue, are in
creeds as far apart as the poles. One
is the Unitarian Church of the UNITY.
the other is the New England Church
of the ngregationalists.
High above the apex Of the main
portal of the Church of the Unity. set
well into the wall, is a gray stone
whose front face Is about six inches
square. It is just the color Of the
stones that surround 1t. and may be
distinguished from them only by its
having about 1t a narrow rim Of gold.
The stone looks simply as though the
mortar which holds 1t in place were of
gold. This bit Of rock, for it is nothing
less, has held it's place above UNITY
church portal since the year 1857 That
part of the wall which contains it did
not fall when the rest of the building
was destroyed by the great fire. This
gold-rimmed stone was scorched smok-
ed and blackened but it was not the
first time 1t had known touch of fire.
Upon the small rock whence this bit
Of the wall Of Unity church was hewn
rested the feet of Servetus when the
fagots were piled about him and he
: died at the stake, martyr to his Uni
tarianism.
Servetus has been called the first
Unitarian martyr. Rudely carved just
above the gold rim of this historic
stone is the word 'Champel," the name
Of the place where, Oct 81, 1853 Mi
chael Servetus suffered for conscience
sake.
In the wall of the New England
congregational church, one block south
of the Unitarian edifice, is a piece of
Plymouth Rock, upon which, supposed
ly, the Pilgrims first set foot in the
new world, after fleeing from perse-
cution. In the front of the church is
set stone, the inscription on which is
now badly marred and defaced. It is
a stone taken from the parish church at
Scrooby Manor, England, where many
of the Pilgrims were born, and where
in after years they were prosecuted.
The stone bears the name "Scrooby
Manor" and the date A. D. 1906. In
side the New England Congregational
church there is a stone baptismal font
which did service in the Scrooby Manor
church for six centuries and half.
Tradition has it that with water taken
from this font Miles Standish was bap-
tized.

PRESIDENT is PATIENT.
He Will Take No Vacation Until In
October.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-President
Mckinley said today that the mental
and physical strain of the last few
months had been severe upon him as
upon all officials who had borne the
weight of great responsibilities, and
now that the war was over and the
sufferings that war involves were at
an end his feeling was one of pro-
found thankfulness. Work in connec-
ton with the appointment Of commits
sioners to negotiate a treaty of peace,
the preparation of their instructions
and other matters, he said, probably
would necessitate his remaining in
Washington until some time in Oc-
tober, when he hoped to be able 10
take a short rest. The work of the
peace commission might occupy a
month or so. and he hoped That in his
next annual Thanksgiving proclama
ton he would have the very great
pleasure of announcing to the people
the fact that a treaty of peace had
been signed.

Remarkable BicycIfst.

From the Philadelphia Press
A very remarkable ARRAY took place in
the Rue d'Assass a day or two ago. A
quiet-looking, harmless young man was rid
ing along a bicycle, when a careless cab
driver ran into him and upset him and his
machine that It was uninjured, and got into
the cab, which standing and commenced
to- give the driver tremendous thrashng
with much ease. Two policemen arrived
and the young Samson began to play with
the three. After while he seemed to get
tired, and to the amazement of the huge
crowd he gently upset the policemen, coolly
mounted his bicycle and rode away without
the slightest interference, leaving the three
in a sorry plight. The cabman was espe-
cially maltreated, and had to be carried home.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-It seems to
be settled hiatt Ambassador Hay is to
succeed Secretary Day when the lat
ter becomes chairman of the peace
commission. The authority for this
statement is unofficial, but from a
source which shows that this is the
determination of the president at pres
ent. The Indications are that Secre-
tary Days resignation from the state
department will be in and accepted
within a week.
1t is expected that the president con-
templates the appointment of Secre-
tary Day to a circuit judgeship after
the work of the peace commission has
been finished. A bill is pending in con
gress for the appointment of an add
tional judge in the district which in
cludes Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky.
The district is so large that it over
taxes one judge, and it is understood
that the appointment of another will
be made as soon as the meeting OF
congress. and the new position is to go
TO Judge Day.
