THE LAW ON TRIAL,

E
 Whatever may be thought of the propriety of taking q Christian pulpit as a place in which to apologize for and
 even recommend the commission of a second crime as revenge for a first, the defence of lynching as a punishment for rape which was deliberately offered by a Chicago clergyman on Sunday un- .doubtedly represents a growing feeling in this country, which 1t is important that we should recognize and reckon with. There are certainly many people who would be willing to take their stand with him on this platform: II am no advocate of lynching or of mob law, but I would rather see cornmu- nifty wrought to the highest pitch over crimes that would seem impossible this side of hell than to remain apathetic." Many more would agree with him that if lynching lis to be avoided, there cer- tainly is call for sure and speedy trial of these wretches, who often brazenly deny crimes amid red tape of legal pro- cesses, but confess abjectly when con fronted with determined men,
 Talk of this strong kind, though more frequently heard in private than in pub- lie, is now not uncommon in this coun- try; and the bloody and lawless prac- tices of mob punishment which it coun- tenances are not confined to that sec tion of the land which has suffered the most from the f1endish crime which provokes it. We are forced to assume, therefore, that there is a growing doubt as to the efficacy of established law in such cases. For the object of the lynchers, in the south and the north alike, whatever hideous mistakes they may sometimes make, Is, of course only to execute the justice that the law is established to secure. In that purpose they usually succeed, but the justice they mete out is of that sort the wrong of which was set forth by Lord Bacon

sessions of humanity. if it's adminis- trators cannot command obedient re sspect for 1t, if our republican institu- tions cannot keep a brutal, inferior race in as reasonable order as the British
 government does in its black colonies.
 then a red horror of revenge will almost
 everywhere follow the black horror of
 rayishment; and the catastrophe to the nation will be dire indeed. The situa- .tion is critical, the responsibility is
 plain. We may pardon the Chicago clergyman for the possible impropriety .of his strong language. because of the very urgent importance of the fact that he so ,strikingly forces on our attention. Providence Journal.

in these words: Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more mans na- ture runs to- the more law ought to weed 1t out; for as for the first wrong 1t doth but offend the law, but the re- venge of that wrong putteth the law out of office.
 This, perhaps, sums up as well as any statement that was ever made the wis., dom of all the experience of the ages that is applicable to all forms of lawless violence, whether the assassination of q Seryian king or the burning of an American ravisher at the stake. To re- sort to this wild justice' jeopardises the very foundations of civilization. Yet wherever kings are incompetent or tyrannous they invite reglcide, and wherever the law is weak or corrupt 1t invites lynching; and in any country where such conditions exist it is the duty of the people to devote themselves at least as much to removing them as to lamenting and denouncing the crimes of public revenge which are their nattl- ral consequence. The lynching down in Delaware the other day, which was the occasion for the Chicago clergyman's s remarks, would not have occurred had there not been a delay in the applica- tion of the law which was thought to weaken it's minatory if not it's punitive force; and there will be more of such ''wild justice" there and elsewhere in the country if the law is not made a surer and pronpter means of securing regular justice. @
 This is the most serious phase of the practice of lynching in the United States, a practice which it needs nc statistics to prove to the readers of the news of the day has ceased to be a mere sectional manifestation of racial anirnosity. It is not a local question any longer. The black horror that has hung over the south ever since the ne- gro was freed from the restraints of slavery has crossed the Potomac, the Ohio, the Mississippi and is spreading northward and westward. It puts the law on trial. If the law cannot stor this horrible menace to the dearest pos

TOOK cARBoL1c ACID.

R. H. Herzog, Who Was Married About
 Two Weeks Ago, Tried to End His
 Life.
 R. H. Herzog, about fifty-three years old, of 54 Judson street. tried to com init suicide at 6 o'clock last evening, at his home, by taking carbolic acid. He came home from his work at the Math- ushek piano factory in West Haven yesterday afternoon and going to his room took the poison. His wife imme- diately notified the New Haven hos- pital. and he was taken in the anbu- lance to that institution. Late last evening he was reported as doing nicely and hopes of his recovery are enter tained. He married widow, who has a young man son about twenty-one years old, about two weeks ago. His wife was nearly frantic over her hus- bands rash act, and can give no reason why he should attempt to take his life. He is an old resident of this city.

souvenirs of his majesty. And the vis- ftors go away delighted with their vis- 1t, convinced that the sultan is most affabie and courteous prince, and that the complaints of Europe are entirely .unjustified
 In thus trying to win the sympathy of foreigners by these little means, he inagines that he counteracts the harm that the independent press of Europe, which is hostile to him, does him in ahe minds of the general public. Even to- ward his own subjects he endeavors to appear benevolent when 1t is to his in terest. Sometimes q functionary or grand parsonage falls ill. A chamber lain goes and inquiries after his health with the compliments of the sovereign; a court physician goes to attend him; if he dies and leaves sons whose fidelity the master wishes to secure. the inter- ment is paid for out of the imperial purse.
 Sometimes he attempts by feigned suitability to win over some men he fears and on whom he has no hold, and then there is nothing to which he will not stoop in order to obtain by cunning what he cannot obtain by force. One can have no ideo of the persistence, the roundabout methods they employ in Constantinople to win the young gene ration of Turks over to the sultan's side. They know, for instance, that a young mans relations and friendship give him the opportunity of learning certain little secrets of great interest to the monarch, and they leave no stone unturned to get him to talk. They promise him positions, honors, favors, decorations, promotion money-espec- ially money! They are very capable of making a pretty woman the prize; in short, they put forward what they think will tempt him most. If this in- experienced young man is at all weak or lacking in character, he will find himself so hemmed in, so skilfully en- tangled, that, after brief hesitation, he will end by becoming creature of the sultan. If, on the contrary, he resists, and shows that he cannot be tempted, he invites for himself an existence made miserable by espionage, calumny and prosecutions of all kinds. .
 Thus it is that Abdul-Hamid has suc- ceeded in winning over many of the elite of the nation, and in creating a class in which have been constantly and painstakingly inoculated the most immoral and degrading principles. He knows the power of gold and he uses to corrupt the country the riches he wrests from it. He has no love for hon. est men, for he sees in them adversa- Eries of his policy and censors of his conduct.
 Iin any case, he is not ignorant of the sad condition to which he has reduced the country, but that is detail that seems to leave him indifferent. As to saying that it was impossible for him to save his empire, is it necessary to in- sist on the slight foundation for such an argument? Abful-Hanlid has never at- tempted to ameliorate his country. On the contrary, he has done everything for twenty-six years to ruin it. He stif1ed the budding liberalism which might have been for his people a resur- rection; he cut the throat of it's inde- pendence iii the cradle, seized power by intrigue, kept it by force and cunning, and concentrated it by violence.

ATTACKS CHRISTIAN SCIENCE,
Oowie Pays His Respects to Mrs. Eddy
and Her Book.

New York, Oct. 2S.-About 1000
persons attended the regular morning
meeting at Madison Square Garden
when DOwie talked ON Christian Sci
ence and especially on Mrs Mary
Baker Eddy and her book He de-
clared that Christian Science was
neither Christianity nor science.
Mrs. Eddy's book, he declared, was
Inconsistent with the first elements
OF good sense"
The only possible charm in the
book" he continued, seems to be that
1t Is impossible to understand. There
Is one grain of truth in Christian Sci
ence. 1t teaches that disease does
not come from God.
'As for the arguments of the scien-
lists that there is no such thing as
feeling, tasting or smelling except in
the imagination Of persons it is all
bosh."
Dowie concluded by saying that
Christian Science undermined all
common honesty and yeracity in the
human mind"
