THE DIVINE STRIKERS.

There is something very attractive in
 the "Brotherhood of Divine Shirkers. " otherwise known as the "Order of the Stellar Serenity" of which we get our hrst glimpse in the current number of Life and Beauty" Do what nobody else can do for you. Omit to do all the rest" That is dictum of Thoreau which stands at the head of the Shirk- CTS prospectus. And he object of the Shirkers seems simple enough. It is just to neglect performing all conven-

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT,

Most men ascend to the presidency Of
these United States with pride. It was
Theodore Roosevelt's lot to accept that
exalted position in sorrow. The lofti-
ness Of the position, and the fact that
he was to become the first citizen in
America were for time forgotten in
his sorrow for the great loss that had
befallen the nation. President Roose-
welt is one of the most remarkable men
in the country. His career from the
outset has been most strenuous one.
His life has been one Of valor and pat
riotism, and all America admfres his
dash and force. That he will make =
good president is conceded by members
Of all parties. His record for honesty
and faithfulness are alone the very best
qualifications. He has said that he will
carry out the policy of President Nc
Kinley, and the country can rest as
sured that there will be no interruption
in business.
President Roosevelt is in a trying
position, and it behooves all good citi-
zens to give him their moral support,
During these hours of intense excite
ment, when passion speaks louder than
judgment, party feeling must be for the
time dropped, and the best American
ism In us must be displayed.

TORTURE NOT A REMEDY,

When President Mckinley was told
that his assailant was an anarchist, he
said: "Too bad, too bad; he must have
been crazy; trust that he will be
treated with all fairness"
Contrast these magnanimous words
with the brutal utterances of some Of
the pulpiteers in this city on the Sum-
day after, and with some of the great
da1lies every day In the week.
They demanded torture of the insane
or vicious criminal, to extort a confess
sion from him that he had accomplices.
and printed gleefully information from
the Buffalo chief of police that "Czol-
COS: got the thirty-third degree Of tor
ture borrowed from the old Spanish
prisons), and was lucky to be alive to
be tortured again."
Torture has never yet prevented the
commission of crime, and never will.
While the severest punishment known
to the law should be visited upon anv
miscreant guilty of an attempt upon
the life of the observation-disclosures sue
cessful or not-cruel or unusual punish
ment Is wisely forbidden by the Consti-
tuition Of the United States.
To torture defenseless prisoner to
extort a confession is crime greater
even than that of which he was guilty.
assuming him to be sane; and if
known to be insane, it is damnable.
In some parts of this country thew
burn negroes at the stake for revolving
crimes. That does not prevent the fur
Their commission of similar crimes. On
the contrary, they have increased.
