A RARE VOLUME BY PENN.
Only Known Copy Is Owned by
Qunkers In Philadelphia.


Qunkers In Philadelphia.
The only known copy of Penn's issue
of Magma Charta," published in 1857
by the Bradford Press, is the property
of the Meeting For Sufferings, n repre-
sentative body of the Friends yearly
meeting in Philadelphia. Its title is
The Excellent Privilege of Liberty
and Proprlety; Being the Birthright of
the Freeborn Subjects of England"
The copy is not generally open to the
public.
The peculiar significance of this book
is that Il half dozen years after Penn
founded his colony he wished to have
the colonists keenly realize that they
would have to stand for their rights in
the new country Us well rs the old.
where they had been so cruelty perse-
cuted. He wrote this book in order that
they might be Informed on the consti-
tuition of their local government and
know what were the legal bases of
| their rights as citizens.
Curlously enough the only proof

PENIS is the statement made by Chief
Justice David Lloyd in 1T2S, great
Quaker leader who was PENIS attor-
ney general at the time the book was
issued. Chief Justice Lloyd was also
at that time an intimate friend of VIII
liam Penn and consequently knew
whereof he spoke.
The volume was reproduced in fac
simile by the Philobiblon club in 1897
for n limited number of subscribers.
The original volume, however, must al
ways remain the rare thing that it is,
one of the best expressions of liberty

CRAZEO BY THE HEAT
He ATTEMPTS TO KILL

Crazed by the heat of Wednesday,
S. b. Bachol, of Davenport, made a
murderous attack upon John Ferry,
also of that city.
Bachol is employed about the Mil
waukee freight house and when the
work had slac kened up a bit sat down
in the doorway. When addressed by
Ferry he seized large brush used in
cleaning cars and beat him about the
head, cutting a severe cash. Ferry
retreated. followed by the infuriated
man, who was shaking an iron pin at
him.
Other workmen were attracted and
he threatened them also. Then he
suddenly dropped the pin and went to
work uselessly moving heavy pieces
of freight from one side of the room
to another. He was taken to the sta
ton without resistance. When taken
before Magistrate Finger Bachol said
he knew nothing of what he had done
and his earnest tone and general man
ner bore this out.
He was given a 15-day sentence in
the county Jail to give him an oPpor-
tunity to recover his mental health.
