Boy Murderer Hanged.

st. John, n. B., Dec. ls--Frank
Higgins, the most youthful murderer
to receive the death sentence in Can
ada, expiated his crime ON the gal
lows today.
Higgins, who was not quite sixteen
years of age, murdered boy named
Doherty, fourteen years of age. The
two quarreled over a petty matter,
and Higgins, who had rife in his
hand, shot Doherty dead and after
wards concealed the body. The crime
was witnessed by another boy whom
Higgins cowed by threats into silence.
The knowledge of the murder became
too burdensome to the witness and he
confessed, his testimony finally con-
victing Higgins.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 1S-The
scene of the first cabinet dinner to be
given by the president and Mrs. Roose-
velt this evening will be vastly differ
ent from that of last year Some
doubt was felt lest the east room

most important social function of the
season, but by putting ON force of
additional workmen everything was
put in the best of order
More than seventy guests, an ex-
ceptionally large number, will attend

notable leaders of president society

GOOD PRECEDENT.

The Musical club has had several
offers this winter to introduce other
than home talent, but they realized
that Florence herself possessed somo
very extraordinary talent and prefer
red to recognize and encourage 1T.
This they did. The, artistic rendi-
tion of last nights program proved
this fact The club recognized and
remunarated those who took part on
their program last night, thus estab-
fishing precedent which is certain
ly commendable.
There is no reason why home tai
ent should not receive remunerative
consideration, since they are not ex-
cluded from paying for their music,
instruction, etc.
The Musical clubs stand IN this
matter would certainly encourage
those taking part in any program, to
give it most careful preparation as of
course should be done where the pub
lie is charged admission. The danger
of programs being thrust upon the
public without preparation as is some
times apt to be done, is thus happily
averted

has gone on record against the
Judges who have issued injunctions
against the striking miners. At a

scoring the Judges the resolutions
"urge the miners to insist upon
and, if need be, defend their right
to feed starving brothers in defiance
of the mandates of the Federal
Courts, and that we pledge them
our support to the furthering of
that end" Copies of the resolutions
will be sent to all labor bodies for
Endorsement at their Labor Day de-
