KIDk1PPING,

The Cudahy kidnapping case has call ed the attention of several of the west ern States to the fact that they have no laws against kidnapping, and the legis- latures of those States will be asked to make laws against it as soon as possi- ble. The idea seems to be that kid mapping should be punished with death or life Imprisonment. The punishment of death will not seem too severe to those who believe in capital punishment at all, and the punishment of life inn prisonment will not seem too severe to these who do not believe in hanging or otherwise killing criminals. Kidnappers who do such work as was done in the Charley Ross and the Cudahy cases do not deserve much consideration if they can be caught. The crime is peculiar ly atrocious one, and though it has not been very common every State should have a law that will adequately deal with 1t.

GOOD Y-WEA THEIR HERE.

The prosperity and boom which this
 country is enjoying look especially
 beautiful when compared with some
 things that are becoming conspicuous in
 Europe. From Germany comes the as-
 sertion that "the wave of industrial
 prosperity in Europe, which has stead-
 ily risen since 1895, has taken a turn
 and begun to recede;' that all signs
 point to a crisis in industrial lines be- fore two years have passed, and that any political disturbance might bring on the inevitable crash with extreme suddenness Tn verification of these discouraging predictions 1t Is pointed out that house rents and industrial stocks have begun to decline, that fac tories are closing and that the shipping interests and war material industries are making the most of the South Afri- can and Chinese disturbances. German students of economics analyze the sit uation as being the result of overpro- duction In France there has been a collapse in the wool market that has carried down extensive business con- cerns. In England shipowners are dis couraged and find great difficulty in making even a meager profit. In Scot land the weaving trades are demoraliz- ed. Generally the shoe manufacturers are being interfered with by the inva- sion of American goods. The outlook in all lines apparently is for worse lu- stead Of better times.
 Let us make hay while the sun shines. The sun may not always shine helc | and we shall want some hay when it loesn't.

4 NOTABLE COMPLIMENT.

The educators who manage the mag
 nificent school systems of this country
 will be much pleased by the compli-
 ment which has been paid to those sys- tems by Vice-Consul Ersl1ine. who rep resents the British government in Chi cago. He says that the system of edu-
 cation in the United States. especially
 in the city of Chicago, is the most prac-
 tical in the world for fitting youth for the battle of life. He finds some faults in the system, including its failure sometimes to thoroughly teach reading, spelling and simple mathematics while devoting an undue amount of time to foreign languages, biology and the other sciences. He intmates also that the system inclines to forcing boys into men, but, on the whole, he finds more to praise than to condemn. Such is the system of the schools" he con- cludes, that the education turns out boys into the world with wonderful self-relance and capacity for seizing opportunities, and, even if the spelling and punctuation leave much to be de- sired to do the work to the satisfaction of the employers, many of the boys rise rapidly, and at an early age are at the heads of departments, a position which in European country would take years of faithful work to attain
 Vice-Consul Erskine has said this and more in a report to his government. It will be read with solemn interest in England and with pleased acceptance in this country.

CRUIKsHANK's BANKNoTE.

One day about the year 1918 George Cruikshank was passing Newgate on his way to the Exchange, when, seeing
 crowd collected, he went forward to
 learn what was the matter and saw
 that it was the execution of several men
 and women. He was mortified at the
 spectacle, and on inquiring, learned that
 the woman was being hanged for pass
 ing counterfeit one-pound notes. He learned also that this punishment was quite a common thing. even though the
 poor wretches often sinned in ignorance, being the dupes of men who sent them
 to buy some trifle and return the change to them. Wrung with pity and with shame, Cruikshank went home and immediately, under the inspiration of his feeling, sketched a grotesque car feature of banknote. He calls 1t bank restriction note-not to be imita- ted. He represents on 1t a place of ex- ecution, with the spaces about filled in with halters and manaeles, a figure of Britannia devouring her children, and transport ships bearing the lucky or unlucky ones who had escaped death to Van Diemen's land or Australia while in place of the well-known sigma ture of Abraham Newland Is that of 'J. Ketch."
 He had just finished this, when his publisher Hone entered, and seeing 1t, begged to have it for publication. So Cruikshank etched it and gave it to Hone who exhibited it for sale in his window with startling effect, Crowds quickly began to gather, and purchased so eagerly that the issue was soon ex- hausted.
 Cruikshank was kept hard at work making more etchings, the crowds grew so great that the street was blocked, and the mayor had to send sol diers to clear it. Hone realized over seven hundred pounds in few days Good Words

OXFORD STATuTES.

In appearance the sta atutes hold good
 in their entirety; in reality many of
 them are never enforced and probably could not be enforced in this year of grace, 1900 This mass of custom, though perhaps it lies little out of the track of the present subject, must be briefly attended to if we wish to get a clear idea of the enormous influence of unwritten law at Oxford.
 According to the statutes the student must wear a garb of "subfuse' hue If any one introduces a new fashion in dress the vice-chancelor and heads of college are to sit in judgment upon it.. Cap and gown must always be worn in public. Fines or "lines'' are to be the punishment of those who refuse to com- ply with the vice-chancellor's orders
 The undergraduate must be reverent toward his seniors-even the bachelors have a claim on his respect; he must not wander or finger in the town; he must not enter the houses of the towns people without a reasonable excuse; he must not attend the town council meet ings, the Sessions or the Asslzes. Tav- erns, wineshops and similar places of resort are forbidden joys, while shops where "herba nicotiana (slve tobacco) ordinaire venditur" are anathema mar anatha, and may be visited only lex causa necessaria ct urgenu per vice. chancelarium aut protores approban- da.'' The scholars must abstain from games which cause danger to life; hunting archery and hawking are for bdden. Undergraduates must not drive in carriages unless they are sick ly and may not keep horse or servant unless they have written permission to do so.
 Amos. all these regulations have been modified in striking manner by law; the garment of "sub fuse" hue is no longer compulsory National Review.

| A walk through the courtyard is all | lowed surrounded by thickly latticed windows, but one may not stand still | within the precincts. Not on the di- rect road to Carthage. but easily | reached during the same drive, Is the museum at Bardo, opened in 1888 in the old harem adjoining the bey's public palace and full of most interesting re- | suits of recent North African eXcava- ting. CatalogS can hardly keep pace with discovery and additions, so that of many beautiful things verbal descrip-
 ton by the intelligent attendant com
 prises all available information. Es-
 pecially rich in mosaicS, the museum contains room after room filled with
 fine examples of wall and floor decora-
 tion, those found in Suza (Hadrame-
 tum) being generally in better state
 of preservation than the Carthage re-
 mains, The ancient inhabitants would
 seem to have pleased thebselves by re-
 producing with their bits of colored
 stone many familiar scenes; and so
 fishing" with men and boats and nets,
 a seashore banquet, quite elaborately
 Worwked out, the "chase," with dogs,
 hunters and flying game, appear. In 1897 a very large pavement design was
 discovered near Zajhrun, representing
 the signs of the zodiac in 8 circle, sur rounded by the seven days of the week.
 In addition to the earlier mosaics, there are many exhibiting Christian designs. But moSaics by no means comprise the chief wealth of the museum. Hun dreds of Punic lamps of earthenware are gathered simple, but showing graceful form and decorations weird masks with ingenious varieties of con- tortion In the features, tear vials and water jars, and fine bits of sculpture. Three statues have been recently exca- Vated together at Carthage perhaps the most beautiful at Bardo. The cen tral figure in this exquisite group is thought to be Ceres, and is more per feet than the others. A few fine relics in gold and silver are shown and alto- gether the Musee Alaoui would be an enthrallng spot for months of study Scientific American.
