Congressional funerals are attracting
unpleasant attention, first on account
of their expense and second on account
of the manner of conducting them. It
cost 81, 500 to the people to bury Repre-
sentative Dingley of Maine and 81. 173
to bury Representative Milliken The
American people would be slow to OBJ
ject to this outlay if it were shown that
it was suitable method Of doing honor
to a public servant. But it is becoming
apparent that a large contingent Of
shopkeepers and contractors lies in wait
for these honors to pocket the surplus
of a grateful republic, and the mourn
ing congressman are coming to regard
the sad obsequies as an extra opportu-
nifty for cakes and ale, OF. to put it
plainly, champagne and cigars. This is
not pleasant subject to discuss, and
all the more reason why congress itself
should regulate it within the bounds OF
national decorum and respectful grief.

Place was triumph Of grisly justice
To even write about the carrying out
Of the death penalty upon a woman is
not pleasant task, but justice is not
instituted to furnish pleasure There
are some dire tasks which fall to the
community no less than to the individ-
nal that we must contemplate with our
teeth set and our resolution unbent.
The law claimed and took it's victim in
spite Of the most energetic and tireless
efforts to save her. Every argument
that the emotion Of pity or horror could
furnish was brought to bear, and large
part Of the community, which is too
busy with its pleasures to waste much
sympathy upon the victims Of the muir
deress, found time to appeal in behalf
of the murderess. The result is vindi-
cation of the law and fresh respect for
justice, which reassumes new phase
,of inevitableness and majesty. The law
is no respecter Of persons was what the
governor of New York said when ap-
pealed to- The we'll being of the COM

The bishop of Wakefield has publicly
denounced through the press Pinero's
latest play, 1.-THE Gay Lord Quex," and
he terms it the most immoral play that
has ever been seen on the English stage.
This does not disturb Mr.. Pinero, who
makes his usual playwright g rejoinder,
II am simply copying life, " at which
the bishop and thousands of other con-
sentative Englishmen ask, ''What kind
of life9" If Mr.. Pinero were as honest
as he is clever, he would end the con-
troversy by saying frankly: my dear
sirs, if had not made my play immoral,
you would not have noticed it, and il
would not have been a great success ]
thank you. I am not a moralist; I am U

There is in New York very disrep-

and vigorous crusade is on to do away
with it by widening the main street
that passes through it. In the discus
sion which this move has brought about
in the borough one very remarkable and
shameful fact was presented for consid-
Grafton by Father Mclaughlin, Roman
Catholic priest whose church is in
that neighborhood He is thoroughly
familiar with the dens of vice and with
all the infamy of the locality, and he
said that it was constantly visited by
fashionable women in parties, who are
doing what they call "slumming' and
20 down there to feast their eyes upon
opium victims and have the worst char
acters of both sexes pointed out to their
dainty curiosity. They thus make a
public exhibition of forms Of vice and
misery that cannot even be written
about, and they give certain sensa-
tional Importance to degradation by be-
coming interested in its enormity with
out ever caring to relieve it. There is
no doubt a great deal of just censure If
this. It became a fad a few years age
for delicate girls to go Summing. They
wanted to see all that men see. Profess
or Swing made this complaint in Chi
cago at one time, and the stunning
nonsense got to be police nuisance il

WICHITA INTEREST in DREYFUS
Some People are Coming to Believe
Dreyfas Guilty.


It has been interesting to watch in WI
chita the past week the fluctuations in
public opinion in regard to Dreyfus and
what is true of Wichita is probably true
of every other place on earth. Two weeks
ago there was perfect unanimity in regard
to the innocence of Dreyfus. Since his
trial began at ennes. and his actions In
court were published. his adherents have
weakened and some people can be found
who believe that Dreyfus Is guilty and
will be again convicted. Nine OF out ten
men who have changed their opinion about
Dreyfus have done so because OF his at
titude in court, his perpetual reiteration
that he is innocent, MS servile replies to
Jouaust: Yes my colonel" mo my col
onel.'
In the first place my colonel Is the
French idIom and does not signify any,
thing; but Dreyfus' whole manner has
been pleading
"And why not?" Frank Moves said last
night. "Dryfus is no longer a man. He
has some Of the instincts of a man left,
but he is now an animal AN animal who
has been bounded and driven and scourg-
ed until he takes every gesture to be a
threat. No wonder he cringes. No won
der he covers. He is no longer a man.
lie is a poor, whipped Irresponsible
beast"
Mr.. Noyes believes in Dryfus' innocence
More interest is being taken in the Drey-
fus case In Wichita than ever before TAX
en- in an entirely foreign event.
