THE WOMAN IN THE CASE.

| The best way to get at the facts in a
murder case is to ascertain the motive
| behind the crime. But a cynical French
man once observed that itsis of no use
to speculate upon the motive until YOU
find the woman in the case.
This advice seems applicable to the
shocking crime committed in a fashion,
able cafe in this city the other night.
The woman in the case is known. She
had been keeping company with the
murdered man for years. Evidently he
worshlped her. Developments since the
tragedy indicate that she was unde-
serving of his affection. She broke faith
with him, Cancelled an engagement, and
went to private room in the cafe with
a disreputable character, who had a
wife and family in this city already.
There is no excuse for the conduct of
this woman, whatever may have been
the provocation and heat of passion
that precipitated the deadly encounter
between the men. 1t is for the under
taker and the sexton to take charge of
the one and for the court to deal with
the other. The life of one is ended:
that Of the other is wrecked and imper-
lied; relatives mourn the dead and
wife and baby bear the odium of the
survivor of that conflict Still the wo-
man in the case will escape. There is
no punishment prescribed upon the
statute books for her.
Yet who viii say she is not response
BILE for this crime? Who believes that
she alone is entitled to escape the pen
atty of wrongdoing?
The attack may have been prompted
by jealousy or a desire to save and
shield woman from disgrace. Or it
may have come from the other side
the fierce resentment of a baffied scoun-
drel. The woman knows. The motive
is a secret of her heart. Unlock her
lips and see if the Frenchman was not

formal request for annexation.
Bishop Grant likewise favors annex

be admitted as a state and the state
government left entirely to those who
have so signally failed to manage an
independent government. 1t is said
that when negroes return to their ma

to the present, how came it that the
true meaning of fossils was ever ascer-
tanned? Before explaining how, let ref
erence be made to certain facts brought
out by the foregoing illustrations. Note
that where fossils come from rocks be-
longing to comparatively recent geolog-
ical periods (cenozoic) they bear a
strong resemblance to living forms. See
figure l. And that those from very old
rocks (paleozoic) bear less or sometimes
even no resemblance to living forms.
See figure 2. The latter. although truly
marine invertebrates. have, as we have
already seen. been even referred to as
nuts of living trees.
Now ii so happens that among the
cenozoic fossils there are some which
do not bear a strong resemblance to
living forms. Again, in the paleoZoic
there are those occasionally that do re-
semble recent species. But in an inter-
mediate age. the so-called mesozoic.
there is a wonderful commIngling of
recent and extinct types of life. Such
circumstances naturally lead the logical
mind to conclude that in ages Isst
there were forms of life somewhat diff
ferent or even very different from any

now seen on the face OF the earth. In
other words the idea of the extinction
of species, genera, families and whole
groups OF living beings was too obvious
to be overlooked by the more careful
observers.
Gesner. a. Swiss botanist, published in
175S a treatise on fossils. He observed
that in certain beds (cenozoic) the fos-
sils resemble recent forms, while in an
fossils were of unknown types, and if
now living at all they inhabit distant
seas.
In 1890 William Smith, an English
surveyor. published his Tabular View
of British Strata" He differentiated
his strata" by means of the organic
remains they severally contained, and
thus, whether fully comprehending the
SIGNIFICANCE of fossils or not, brought
them wildly to the notice of the scien-
tific world by showing their Importance
in practical field geology.
While this work was going on in Eng
land. Lamarck had been carefully
studying, describing and figuring the
fossil shells from the Paris basin, and
had referred many TO living genera.
though the species were for the most
part distinct. Soon came the immortal
works of Cuvier on the fossil verte-
brates in the cenozoic rocks about
Paris. Being a close student of eompar-
ative osteology. this author showed the
affinities as well as the differences be-
tween the animals these bones once be-
longed to and those inhabiting the
earth today.
At the beginning of the present cen
fury the fossil world was well known to
the few. Ever since that time new re-
ports have appeared depicting its Won
ders. Let us then sincerely hope that
before the close of the twentieth CEN
fury the many may have grasped its
salient features.
