OVERRIDING OF THE LAW
JUSTICE BREWER on KANSAS CRU
SADERS AND LYNCHINGs.
Mrs. Nation Trying to BE John
BrOwn-SpasmOdic Virtue Next
Door to Intentional Vice.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. 1S.-Hon. Da-
vid j. Brewer, associate justice of the
United States Supreme Court, delivered the
fourth lecture in the Yale course this aft
ernoon on 1.-THE Responsibilities of Citizen
ship" He discussed the question of strikes,
also the overriding of the law i'm lynchings
and the exhibition of popular Indignation
over the lawlessness in the State of Ran
sas. Referring to the latter. Justice Brewer
said. in part:
I'm the larger cities there is now spas
modic exhibition of virtue. and Mrs. Carrie
Nation hopes to be the successor of John
Brown. Spasmodic virtue is the poorest
that anyone can have 1t is next door TO
intentional vice. Ii may be that, for time,
the violations of the prohibition law will
be stopped, but ultimately We fear that
the officers who have been Delinquent. will
become Indifferent again and that the COM
nlunity will also become lax in sentiment
Ten years from now We fear that the con-
ditions will become worse than they have
BEEN"
AT the conclusion the jurist said of
lynchings:
I'VE used to find some justihcation for a
community taking the law into its own
hands by pleading that circumstances de-
manded quick justice. 1t has seemed TO
me that in some cases legislation was con-
ceived for obstructing the punishment OF
criminals Courts and executives have been
tender hearted. 1t is not wonderful, there
fore, that communities have punished when
they feared that the law would interpose
delays. But when legislators become
aroused by the moral sense Of the comrnu-
mites they. will enact such legislation that
justice will be facilitated. Then lynchings

A better title might have been given to
the "Fads and Follies' burlesque company.
which began three days stand at the En-
pire Theater yesterday afternoon. The
troupe presents a great number of COM
mendable features and the name of "Fads
and Follies'' leads one to believe that it is
made up of lot of light stuff not worthy
of recognition In the cast are many faces
familiar TO the patrons of the Empire A
good feature of the show is that nothing
OF suggestive nature finds its way into the
lines The performance opens with a bur-
lesque. made up of pretty girls with good
voices. The piece is called Tim Sullivan 3
Chowder.' 1t also might be termed "hash,' -
as everything has been used in its forma-
ton, there being no plot of any kind. James
K. Leonard assumes the principal role.
Frank Fogarty, as a Swede, makes a great
deal out of his part Otis Shattuck, as the
tough person, is above the average.
A lithesome pair-Patsy and Sadie Bran
Higan-open the olio with a series of jigs
and reels which were entertaining. Barry
Thompson and Annie Carter still retain
their old lines, and Thompson is still act
ing the part of the drunken husband with
shade more OF reality. Miss Carriers sing
ing still pleases A clown trio, composed OF
woman, man, and a boy under the
name of "Bim, Bom, B'rrr," have a unique
musical act. Otis Shattuck and Minnie
Bernard try legitimate acting, which might
be improved. Mark Bennett and Albert
Rich have this year come together and are
now singing in new sketch. This team
was forced yesterday TO respond TO a num-
trated songs. The last burlesque, similar
to the first, is made up of Leonard's rough
comedy, assisted by Messrs Fogartv
Thompson and Shattuck.

1t was before he had been elected TO

Blaine was then speaker. Naturally he
was one OF the statesmen that General
Henderson much desired to meet, and the
opportunity came Of morning, just as
the speaker was passing through the lobby
on his way to the marble rostrum. The
formal greetings were exchanged in a brief
moment, and General Henderson was left
to see the swinging doors close on the
stalwart form of the Republican leader.
Six years later General Henderson again
came to Washington. this time to get
Iowa divided into two judicial districts.
He put up at Wormleys, where Blaine also
lived, it being in those days a fashionable
and hourishing hosiery. A week or so
after his arrival from Iowa, as General
Henderson was entering the dining room,
he met Blaine, after having passed and re-
passed him many times. The Maine man
grasped him cordially by the hand called
him by name and inquired about Iowa.
