Z There are more ways of strangling a
cat than by choking it with butter. And
so there are of strangling the young
cuban republic. But the operation in
each case is as discreditable. to the
strangler as it is fatal to the strangIed.
The tariff revisionists who will descend
to the despicable scheme of lacking on
IA
their measure to the Cuban relief bill
are entirely qualified for the cowardIy
policy which has been pursued by the
Supposed Republican opponents of pro-
fectionism from the opening of congress
to the present moment.

CRIME and T1rrsEcrIoN.

The contemplated use Of the remains
pf the convicted murderer Upper for
Scientific purposes by the authorities Of
the state university is one tha1 if
found feasible, will be welcomed by all
intelligent persons. Of course in the
event of any serious objection being ad-
Yanced by the relatives and friends of
the condemned man, which cannot be
overcome. the possibility of utilizing the
remains cannot be put into effect
This general subject Of the utilization
Of the human body for purposes of scien-
tific investigation has attracted consid-
cradle attention of late. The value of
Such investigation is recognized outside
as well as within the surgical profession.
The offer of a medical man a short time
ago to submit himself for vivisection was
Undoubtedly made in gooo faith, and if
it could have been accepted would nave
resulted in substantial gain to science.
The health and, if necessary, the life
of an individual is but of little moment
when considered with reference to the
Substantial gain of generations Of the
race.
When man has forfeited his LIE to
the state through crime, he should be re-
garded as having forfeited his body like
wise. The manner of the death of a
,fonvicted murderer is Of little conse.
quence. The end aimed at by modern
society is to make that death as painless
as possible. The thought of making the
occasion Of the death one of warning
TO future offenders has been discarded
with the advance of general enlighten.
Tnent. The convicted murderer is ciyillv
dead. After all the agencies available for
staying the execution of the sentence have

Unqualified success was the measure of
reward melted out last night to the st.
Paul Choral club for its bravery in trl-
umphing over the many difficulties that
have stood in the way Of its second con-
cert this winter. The platform of the
Central Presbyterian church, where the
concert was given last evening, enlarged
to meet the requirements of the chorus,
proved a rather tight fit, in spite Of the
addition. but lack of freedom did not
perceptibly lessen the volume Of the
voices The absence of an orchestra,
which always makes a background for
the voices, was another adverse condition
conditions were allowed to detract not
one whit from the merit Of last nights
concert. Essentially different in charac-
ter from the first concert of the club
and necessarily making fewer demands
than that first concert, last nights enter
tainment, nevertheless, presented de-

The opening chorus, the "Hallelujah,"
from Beethoyen's Mount Of Olives" was
marked by certain stiffness. Both Mr..
Normington and his choir seemed a trifie
Ill at-ease, and the result was a rather
spiritless production Of the first part of
the chorus. Before they finished, how
ever, the members became more assured,
and the finale was commemorate one.

Big Jimmie worked in a wholesale drug

ALL HOPE FOR CONDOR HAS BEEN
ABANDONED.

which left here on Dec. p, just before
the big storm which wrecked the collier
Mcttewan off Cape Flattery, was aban-

ship Egeria from a trip along the west
cost Of Vancouver.
The Egeria went as far north as the
Scott islands, off the north end Of Van
couyer island At Clayoquet, on the west
coast, her officers found wreckage from
the Condor which shows that she must
have gone down or was smashed to pieces
by the heavy seas. This wreckage in

broad arrow of the British navy, a sig

ship could have Withstood a storm which
would wash these articles from her deck
The crew Of the Condor numbered 100
officers and men. Her officers were:

ing. The former was sung with the so

son, ana In attack, harmony and volume
the cholr excellence was particularly
notlceaple. In the Dream Pictures" the
expression was remarkably good. The
quartette work by Miss Barker Mrs.
hrleger, Messrs. Conner and Woodwork
was artistic, For finale the chorus
sang the SNOWY damascus TriumphaI
March, from Costas ''Naaman." Plen-
ty OF enthusiasm marked the rendition Of
thas number, and the fine volume OF
SOUND made the auditorium ring.
Miss sara Anderson made a distinctly
good impression last night. Her voice is
beautiful. The range is wide and even
the registers melting into one another
lmperceptibly. It is Miss Anderson's low
er tones that are Especially delightful.
They are almost ieello-like in their quail
lty grave and deep and fine. A little self
conscious air sets rather stifdy on the
singer, but fortunately none Of the stiff
ness nor onseiousness gets into her
voice. Her solos in Hear My Prayer
were beautifully sung The aria, I'll est
doux, II est bon,.. from Massenet's He
roiade," was sung with big emotion, If
one may use the expression 1t showed
the sincerity of the singers art In the
group Of songs that followed this aria,
Miss Anderson sang, among other things,
Bungerts In der Rosen Laube." Nine
Lehman, 1t will be remembered, sang
this for an encore. 1t must be confessed
that the comparison is distinctly in favor
Of the latter singer. If Miss Anderson
has the younger voice, Nine. Lehman
has the younger manner and the finer
art. The final group of songs, '.Aimons
Nous, Saint Saens; Love Song" Blazo-

We're sung in a manner that aroused the
large audience to an unusual pitch Of
enthusiasm, and the singer was recalled
number of times. She responded to
one encore.
