chapters to the chronicle Of crime.
On the 9th day of June 1902 Harry Tracy escaped
from the peniteutary Salem. oregon. In Colorado
in 1897 he began his career Of crime by killing Deputy
Sheriff Valentine Hoy. In 1898, in previous attempt

corning eye the ancient landmark looked as firm as
ever that the would fall and arrangements had
been made TO strengthen IT, The tower fell however
the day before that set for the beginning Of the
work of repair.
'In like manner" the Times Democrat asseverates
docs man palter with the creeds and the systems
which are the supreme results OF sojourn here.
We Americans may we'll ask ourselves
whether the fate of the Venetian landmark does not
await the lofty concepts for which the founders OF the
republic struggled"

in the thought which it gives rise that similar an.
