sympathy is heaven-born sentiment
which is never lacking in the breast
Of true man. Undoubtedly there was
much sympathy felt for Patrick j.
Lynch and Theodore Tobiason as they
stood before Judge Mcbride yesterday
afternoon to receive sentences for the
crime Of kidnapping. Particularly was
1t appealed to in the case of Tobiason,
who IS young, evidently not frequent
offender. and possibly without real
tendency to crime. How far his pres
ent plight may be the result of, the per-
suasions and Establishments of others
more hardened to evil and more skill
full in the commission of crime the trial
did not develop. 1t is certainly plaus-
fble. however. that had Tobiason avoid
ed the company of men whom he knew
10 be engaged in wrong, he would not
now be on his way to the penitentiary
to serve a one-year sentence for as
sisting in the attempt to shanghai
Charles Gardner He need not have
acquired the stigma which such pen
atty attaches TO any mans name. He
might have avoided the very probable
criminal bent which such an incarcera-
ton may develop in the convict who
is not thoroughly fortified with right
primo iples, which a guilty man usually
Is not.
His experience should be a warning
to all others. There is little use in
warning young men who have already
progressed so far on the down grade
that they regard an eyildoer's greatest
mistake as consisting in being cauht.
Such are too wise to accept advice.
But many young person in Astoria
is surrounded with influences as subtle
and as destructive as those which have
proved the undcing OF Tobiason. and
sniy manly or a womanly avoidance
of the tempter will insure them from
his mistake.
As to Paddy Lynch, the sympathy is
rather for man who is to be seriously
punished than for a man whose guilt
Is condoned. A record Of four previous
terms of Imprisonment is not calculat-
ej to cause much regret that another
crime is to be expiated, much as one
may feel sorry that his instincts are
such as to impel him to continue such
a life. When the sentence was named
the courtroom was crowded with as
fair representation of the citizens of
The city as ever gathered within its
walls, but when Judge Mcbride fixed
his term at eight years the only tears
visible in the room were in the eyes Of
Lynch himself.
The successful issue of this effort to
check the fragrant outrages committed
by such ilk, and to end the shameful
record Of shanghaiing which has made
this port notorious, Is distinct victory
for principle and justice. The whole
trend Of the case, including the ener-
getie and painstaking manner in which
the evidence was gathered and the case
prepared for trial by the officers of the
law, the willingness of responsible, in

hal treatment is an endless, hopeless
task. Some simple wash or ointment
Is often beneficial when the skin is
much infamed or itches, but you can't
depend upon local remedies for perma-

throwing of impurities which irritate
and clog the glands and pores Of
the skin, and as long as the blood re-
mains unhealthy, just so long will the
eruptions last. To etfectually and per-

THE ONE SPOT TO HER.
Girls Natural Regard for Home Of Her
Adored One

The originality of American girls
has often been known to puzzle for
eigners to no small degree, and the
following is but an illustration of
what they run up against:
A group of intelligent people were
gathered in the drawing room of
Fashionable hotel on the continent, all
chatting in friendly manner, when
an American girl suddenly held the
floor.
Yes she said. speaking of COM
parsons, guess l have been every
where. I've been to Paris and done it
to death; I've visited London until it is
OLD to me; I've been to Constantine
pie. Egypt, India-I guess I've been
everywhere on this earth, but of all,
tothing to me can compare with
o2aak's hotel of Denver
The foreigners laughed, for they
thought it must be some kind of a
joke. yet they did not know what
Blank, S hotel was and had never heard
of it.
few days later, as the American
girl was tax IN i'll, one of the women
went to call upon her. In smoothing
the pillows ana arranging the coverlid
the lady noticed a photograph fall to
the floor.
Picking it up, she said: Il suppose
this has something to do with Blanks
hotel?"
Yes" said the girl wit. sigh, hes

Will Not Allow Hobson to Resiun

Washington, Feb. 4.-The navy de
partment is unwilling to allow Con
structor Hobson to retire from the
navy, even upon resignation outright.
and the abandonment of the privilege
of going on the retired list. The reas-
on for the unwillingness is the press
ing need of the construction corps for
the services Of just such young Of
ficers as Mr.. Hobson, and the effort
will be made to induce him to remain
on active duty. The construction
corps has lost the services of four able
officers during the past year, and with
the rapidly increasing amount of con.
struction work, the navy department
feels that it must stop the drain.

Strange Picture Story.

A story of strange happenings to
valuable picture-an Albert Durer
worth 000-comes from a village
in West Flanders. An inhabitant re.
ceived the picture from Paris some
years ago, and. being ignorant of it's
value, sold it to : seal carriage paint
er. whose son disposed of it to an
amateur" for fifty francs. This gave
rise to legal proceedings between the
first seller anI the carriage painter, in
the course 4 which the picture was
identified as one which had been
stolen from the Royal Picture Gallery
at Munich. The work is a representa-.
tion of the Apostles, one of Durer's
masterpieces, and the signature of the
artist is in corner of the panel.

Tossed Coin for Bride.

About two years ago a Boston
beauty was beloved by two men, one
a lawyer, the other clergyman.
Both had asked her hand, but she
knew not 10 which one to give her
heart. Accident brought the two to-
gether at dinner party and the lady
franz kly told her swains she could not
decide between them. and then, with
laugh, she asked if either had a
silver quarter in his pocket. If so
they might toss up and the winner she
would marry. No sooner said than
done and the coin rang down on the
table. The lawyer won and she mar
ried him. In twelve months he died
and recently the lady's friends re-
ceived cards announcing her marriage
to the minister.

The Dollar Rules the World.

On Nov. II the newspapers printed a
dispatch from the City of Mexico stat
ing that on Jan. | next President DiaZ
will retire from his Office, and will be
succeeded by Senior Jose Ives Liman-
tour, now minister of finance. The
same dispatch further stated that Ii
mantour had arranged with the Roths-
childs, the famous European bankers,
to place MeXico's finances on a gold
basis. This is interesting, as corrob-
Grating like statements made by S.
Glen Andrus in an article published
in the November number of the Ma

nificant OF the trend of the times. The

other day with the serious announce.
ment that, since the end of the world
was evidently coming, he would not
lecture any more, but. would devote
