The logic of the law sometimes leads
to strange situations. There, for in
stance, is the case of Jim Younger.
Jim. 1t will be recalled, is one of the
famous bandit brothers who some
years ago terrorized the Northwest
After a picturesque career of crime the
Younger brothers were captured, tried,
convicted and sentenced to the peni-
tertiary in Minnesota, under the sys-
tenn of indeterminate sentences. Jim
Younger made a model prisoner, on
account of which he was some time
ago given his liberty on parole Mean
while Jim Younger had had a romance.
While sick in the penitentiary hospital
a daughter of one of the deputy ward
ems nursed him. Like a consistent
bandit, he fell in love with her, and
she, to keep the story-book plot and
narrative straight, as promptly fell in
love with him.
When Younger was released on pa
role he determined to marry the girl.
Her parents, after many protests,
finally consented to their union, and
Younger went off for the license Then
his troubles began. The license clerk
to whom he applied told him that in
the eyes of the law he was a dead
man and that no license could be issued
to a corpse. Younger consulted sew
eral lawyers, and they all agreed that
the clerks Interpretation of the Mime
sofa law was absolutely correct how
ever paradoxical it might seem. The
paroled man might be restored to life
they said by the pardon of the Gov
ernor, but so long as he remained
merely paroled convict he was dead
in the purview of the law. And thus
the matter stands. Younger cannot
marry legally until he has been resur-
rected by the Governors pardon, and
there seems to be no prospect of that
Meanwhile an interesting discussion
is going on among the newspapers and
lawyers of Minnesota respecting
Youngers status under the law. If
he cannot become a party to a mar
riage contract, neither can he do so
with respect to any other contract;
ASltSC ne NdiiAON NC ISiu iGSPOHSlDlG
for debt. Nor could he be held ac-
countable for a murder or a robbery
that he might commit since it would
be manifestly absurd to indict a dead
man for crimes alleged to have been
committed after his death. 1t is even
argued that, should some other man
commit murder upon the person of
Younger the murderer must perforce
go scot free, in view of the impossi-
bility Of taking the life of one who has
no existence. according to the law.
Thus is Youngers lot complicated and
embarrassing, About the only advan-
tage there is to be derived from his
situation is found in the fact that a
legally dead man cannot be forced to
pay taxes.

summarized as follows: When every

MEruoDIsrs GETTING TOGETHER


What is regarded as a most hopeful
| sign looking to the reunion of the two
great branches of the Methodist
Episcopal Church in this country is the
harmony that has been brought about
recently in certain of their missionary
undertakings. At a meeting held in
/ New York a short time ago a 9.ropo-
sition was adopted whereby a pub
fishing house is to be established at
! Shanghai. China, by the Methodist
/ Episcopal Church and the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, Jointly. At
the meeting attention was directed to
/ the fact that a similar contract had
| been. entered into between the two
1 church organizations with respect to
/ religious publications in Mexico. The
/ Southern church owns and publishes in
/ the city of Mexico a religious weekly,
as does also the Northern church.
These two publications are to be con-
solidated under a new title, and issued
as the joint property and organ of the
two branches of the Methodist Church.
In the Shanghai publishing house each
of the organizations will have equal
representation. Manifestly the consol-
idation of efforts will result in the ac-
complishment of greater amount of
good than would be possible if each
church worked alone.
Since 1869 there have from time to
time been movements organized for
the purpose of bringing the Methodist
harmony that existed in its earlier
days, but so far none has been success
full. AS is we'll known of all those who
have even a superficial knowledge of
the church's history, Methodism in
America was split upon the rcck of
slavery. The open breach came in 1874,
as a consequence of action taken by
the general conference in New York
against Bishop Andrews, one of the
bishops of the church and citizen of
Georgia, who had married a lady pos
sessed of slaves. The fact that Bishop
Andrews was thus, through mis- Wife
a slave holder precipitated a heated
discussion in the conference. ending
with the adoption of a resolution by
NOlC vi LII " OJf iGluESblilS MN ~ dN-
sist from performing the Office of bish-
OPP so long as he remained a slave hold
er. Against this the thirteen Southern
conferences protested and finally with
drew from the organization; and in 1916
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
was organized as an independent body.
That it has waxed great and strong is
matter of contemporary history
But, the cause of the division hav-
ing long since ceased to exist-having
been buried beyond resurrection for
more than thirty-five years-leading
men on both sides have earnestly de-
sired to see the church reunited, ce-
mented into one great brotherhood, for
the propagation of the faith. At each
succeeding meeting of the annual and
general conferences for several years
there has been evidenced a growing
spirit of frindliness. That this spirit is
now taking tangible form is to be seen
in such actions as the consolidation of
interests in China and Mexico, as noted
above.

quantities to make that place de-

surd statement about lack of water at
Charleston was made by former Sec
rotary of the Navy Herbert, who was

Port Royal, and possibly paid with Sa-
