G.. l.. Peck, resident of Troy, Bradford
County Pa. died in the Emergency Hos
pital ambulance shortly after o'clock
yesterday afternoon of cerebral hemor-
rhage. In company with his wife, Mrs.
Emma A. Peck, he arrived in the city
from Philadelphia at 2:4O o'clock, and az
his wife was rather feeble he set out alone
to visit the commission house of Comp
ton Bros, 936 Louisiana Avenue, old
business associates, for the purpose OF
being directed to suitable hotel. While
in conversation in the office Peck was
suddenly noticed to struggle feebly for an
instant, then sink back in the chair in
which he was seated. Mr.. Compton, real
izing that Peck was in critical condi-
ton, sprang to his side and discovered
that he was speeches..
The Emergency Hospital ambulance
quickly responded to call and hurried
Peck to the hospital, but before he reach
ed that institution he was dead. Coroner
hewitt was at the hospital at the time,
and, after viewing the remains and being
informed as to the circumstances sur
rounding the case, issued certificate OF
death from apoplexy cerebral hemor-
rhage. The body was turned over to the
Messrs. Compton and Spicer and they had
it removed 10 the undertaking establish
ment of J. William Lee
During the brief conversation that Peck
had at Comptons Office. he had ex-
planned that his wife was at the Pennsyl-
vania depot, awaiting his return. The
Pennsylvania station was visited, and
tuh tI..< 1( Mt
and Matron Shaughnessy soon located
Mrs. Peck. She was told that her husband
was very sick, and readily accompanied
the detective to Police Headquarters,
where she was asked If her husband was
subject to apoplexy. With wOmans
intuition she Immediately grasped the
situation, but bore up under the ordeal
bravely. Mrs. Peck said that her husband
had never been sick in his life to her
knowledge, but that coming from Phiia
delphia this morning he had complained
of Indigestion. Otherwise he seemed in
his usual excellent health.
Benjamin F. Compton and Mr.. Spicer |
soon Joined her and took charge OF her |
affairs. She accepted the profiered hos |

Mr.. Peck was about sixty-ive years of |
age, and until few years ago was ac
lively engaged in business in Troy, where
he was considered one of the wealthiest
citizens in the county. He was the senior
member in the banking business Of Peck
e Newberry, and was q heavy shipper of
produce from the surrounding country.
During the past twenty years he had
been making heavy shipments of farm
products to both the Comptons and to
Oliver o. Spicer, whose place of business
is next door, and both of them were his
intimate friends.
he had recently given up all Of his ac-
tive pursuits, but retained an interest in
the banking business. He leaves only one

UNCHRIST LIKE.

The question often arises, where
can we draw the line in religion
between a harmonious Christian
love in trying to win our unbeliev-
ing fellow-men to God, and a
fanatical zeal in obeying Gods
commands as given forth in his
Holy Word, the Bible? Can a
person have thorough belief in
Gods word, the Bible, and not be
pressing in their desire to do good
wherever they can and do their
best to win others to a belief in
the all-knowing Creator who is
constantly taking care of us all the
time? It seems impossible for it
to be so.
We see unchrist-like men who
profess to be Christians, stealing
and robbing from their weaker
neighbors six days in the week and
using profane language, don their
best Sunday-go-t o-meeting clothes
and taking their wives to a high
stepping promenade down the
plaisance to a fashionable church
to hear high-priced "hired man"
deliver, as one reverent man puts
it, his latest oratorical, historical,
allegorical, metrophical and "para-
gorical' discourse. Paragorical,
indeed they are, or seem to be,
soothing and mitigating the panied
conscience of heightened hypo-
critics, for he is able after it to 90
home and discuss good dinner and
a bottle of champaign, or if too
stingy for that bottle Of strong
beer, rolls up his religion in fashy
gaudy Sunday morning giddies

FIRST LESSONS IN CRIME.
Written for The Prison Mirror.

Written for The Prison Mirror.
In previous article under the
above caption [ made the state
ment that eff justice were not
blind, perhaps society would get
something which the individual
has to shoulder, i. e., a part Of the
punishment for crime
The idea Of Furnishing society
does not originate with the writer,
but has been practiced in at least
one country for hundreds of years;
but that country is credited with
being "Heathen," not Christian,
therefore Christianity cannot af-
ford to admit that anything worthy
of commentator could possibly
be discovered within it's jurisdic-
ton. Nevertheless, with all it's
heathenish ideas China has for
centuries recognized the fact that
where crime exists society is al
ways more or less responsible for
it's existence and should receive it's
share of punishment.
I do not wish to be understood
as advocating this theory of pun
ishing as a means of doing away
with crime, but as a measure of
justice in applying punishment
for crime. Human ingenuity can
never eradicate crime as long as
individual battle for existence is
necessary, and just as long as
society is willing to allow this
state of affairs to exist, justice
cannot be done by making laws.
Their only effect is to make those
who are already the weaker men,
bers of society bear the burdens
of the stronger members; and
when the burden proves, not the
Justice of the laws, but the weak
ness of the individual, society has
