perience that befell him in Munich il
Illustrative of the difference in prevail

of letters of Introduction to European
railroad officials he made it point to
inquire into the workings of the va

uniform courtesy. At Munich he
thought he had acquired all the infor-
nation he was after, and as he pass
ed out of the office of the man with
whom he had been talking he put on
his hat. He had scarcely been ushered
out when it occurred to him that there
was one matter about which he had
forgotten to inquire. II Immediately

the same official with whom I had been

up, took off my hat and placed it in
my hand. Then he answered my query
and bowed me out. 1t made me feel

Where courts can pack juries to in
dict and try political enemies the liDer-
ties of the citizens are in danger. 1t
is time for people who love fair play in
Hawaii to decide what course should
be pursued. Are the islands to be ter
rorized by an insane and vengeful Judge
or be put, once and for all. under the
sway of justice and decency? 1t is an
acute crisis which it needs no commit
tee of safety to meet, the entire popu-
lation, minus only the ring of adven-
turers and their Royalist allies, being
sufficient to compel results.

Why is 1t that this question of bias
and prejudice on the part of Judge
presents itself to the community almost
as new proposition?
Because 1t is only once in genera

of the primary instincts of fair play as
to be willing to sit in Judgment on his
foe. even If solicited so to do.

Cheap Artificial Stone.

The preparation of a simple and
cheap artificial stone is becoming an
important German Industry, and is
likely eventually to supplant brick
making. The ingredients are only lime
and sand in the proportion of four to
six parts of the former to between
ninety-six and ninety-four, parts OF the
latter. The materials are thoroughly
mixed and shaped into blocks Of the
desired size. The latter are then put
in a boiler, which is sealed, and sub
to $50 pounds to the square inch. This
operation gives a flinty character to
the blocks, making them very hard.

Judge Humphreys was asked point
blank In court if he intended to try
Walter G. Smith. He declined to com
NIT himself, and forced the fling of the
affidavit of bias.
A simple. frank disavowal of any
such intention would have settled the
whole matter then and there to the
credit and the satisfaction of defend
ant. He declined, however, to loosen
his grip on the defendant, and at this
hour 1t is apparent that the defendant
next Tuesday on the important matter
of an immediate trial or a continuance
or a change of venue, is in the hands
and subject to the disposition of his
deadly foe. For Judge Humphreys to
intimate that he probably would not
try Mr. Smith, but might do SO, is to
promise nothing more than nothing:
and for counsel to delay further, trust
ing to such elusive talk, would have
been criminal neglect on their part AS
it was, Judge Humphreys suggested
laches in not Directing sooner.

Floyd NOOnan Pleads Guilty of Abduc-
tfOn-The Courts Comment.
Floyd Noonan, the young man who was
arrested in Alexandria the latter part Of
March and taken to Bel Air, Hartford coun-
ty, Md, on charge of abduction, as pub
lished in The Star at the time, was ar
raigned In the circuit court at Bel Air yes
terday before Judge Waters. The court
room was crowded with people who were
anxious to hear the story of the affair re-
lated by Bessie Scarborough of Mill Green,
the girl who was alleged to have been alb
Quoted, and who was found with Noonan
when he was arrested. Much to the gen.
eral disappointment counsel for the de-
fendalt informed the court that plea Of
guilty would be entered. Sentence in the
case was suspended, the defendant being
paroled for one year.
The case attracted considerable attention
about the time of the arrest. and a reward
was offered by the county officials of Har-
ford county for the mans apprehension.
The pair drove many miles through Vir-
ginia, being finally overtaken by Policeman
knight at Alexandria.
In disposing of the case Judge Waters
said:

dicted, and l am authorized by the law

of one year, and would caution you not to
be found guilty of the same offense again.
If you accept the parole which l give you
and will keep away from the girl and her
family, and avoid all appearance of repeat
ing the offense, then the court will be fully
satisfied. l would not advise you to ac-
cept the parole unless you are sure you
can observe this instruction, for you can
rest assured if l hear from any credible
evidence that you are not observing this
instruction l will have you brought ba ok

any clemency whatever at the hands of

judges advice, and the court ordered his
release.

MRS. MJIR'S PETITION DENIED.
But the Judge Changes the Adminis-

NEW YORK, May 29.-At Jersey City
today Judge Blair denied the motion made
on behalf of Mrs. Ella Muir, daughter of
the late United States Senator John R.
Mcpherson, for the appointment of a tenn
porary administrator for the estate of her
mother, recently deceased. Instead, Judge
Blair announced that he would appoint
Judge Otto Grouse as administrator PEN
dente lite in place of Aaron S. Baldwin,
who is named in Mrs. McPherson's will
as administrator of her estate.
The court, however, directed that the
management of the business of Mcpherson
q Co, and much of the estate as
is now deposited with the Union Trust
Company of New York. remain with the
administrator named in the will
BY the terms of Mrs. McPherson's will
her daughter. whose marriage to DR.. Muir
was displeasing to the testatrix, was given
life interest in the estate. In the event
of her death that interest reverts to Bald
win, and at his death $4,000 goes to Christ
Hospital, Jersey City. $4,000 to Emergency
Hospital at Washington and the residue
to Yale University. Mrs. Muir is to con-
test the will on the ground of alleged
undue influence and lack Of tcstamentary
ability. The estate is estimated at 81 OOO,-
00o.
