DEATH BEFORE DISGRACE.
If Dreyfus Is Proved Guilty He May
Take His Life.


Disappointment will mean death to
Dreyfus. There is no doubt n Inc
minds of his friends as to that. The re-
turning exile has threatened suicide
more than once during his inCaTcera-
ton in his dismal island prison, and it
has been only the bright hope that ever

of his wife to obtain a re-trial that
kept him from finding means 10 carry
out his threat. 1t may have appeared
impossible for Dreyfus to readily ma
means for self-destruction in his cage
on the island of the Devil, but many
would have aided him to end his life
had he expressed a wish TO 40 so, Tor
although he was prisoner, he mas
been a cause Of uneaSiness to mis- enc
mics, who secretly feared Just SuCh
denouement as has been brought about
bv his return. Had they dared these
enemies would have had Dreyfus qulet-
" put to death in his island cage to
secure their own peace Of mind.
The only thing that prevented ms
ira eic settlement of the Dreyfus case
was the danger Of detection, for such
things cannot be done in these days
without the sequel being exceedingly
UNPLEASANT for those who bring them
about. But had these same enemies OF
Dreyfus known that he was seeking
means of ending his life they would
have taken particularly good care 10
see that the means We're at his hand
without delay Knowing this, the IN
formatia- regarding the suicidal state
of mind into which Dreyfus had fallen
was carefully concealed from those at
home, and it is only now that there is
no longer any reason for concealment

In China carrier pigeons are protected
from birds of prey by apparatus con-

birds bodies. AS the pigeon flies the
action of the air passing through the
tubes produces a shrill whistling sound

days he collected large number of food
samples, principally prepared articles which
have been shipped to the department labor

purchases in the open market, and as the
storekeepers did not know him he feels
there is no question that the samples Sc
cured are a fair example of the commercial
line of the various food preparations in
question. The analyses of the samples will
