Or minals in America.

Statistics relative 20 crime are dis

leads in this particular as notably as
ia commerce. This is the land OF the
murderer. the robber. the embezzler.

Get Rich QuiCk Plans.

There are more get-rich-quicll
schemes than taken into consideration
by either the police or the postal au-
thorities. For instance, the case Of
the Sully receivers may be respect
fully mentioned.
sir Sully was a gambler of renown.
He bet on the price Of cotton. and
had sufficient influence for a time to
control the price. so that he was
reckoned to be winner by several mill
lions. He ran the cost Of the staple
so high that he closed many Of the
mills of New England. Then he lost
his grip on the situation and the loot.
and when the crash came declared
that he did not possess enough 10
pay a fare on the street ear. His was

are supposed TO be legitimate while
they last.

Virtue of MEDITATION.

At Tazewell, Va, a man has lust
been acquitted after a trial on the
charge of murder. He shot the vic

Of doing this he had the mischance

not matter much to the victim. for
proof that a person slain by a drunken
man is just as dead as though picked

table. There is food in the outcome
OF this trial both for the sober and
the sodden.
The man who refrains from becOm-
ing intoxicated has no defense against
the man less cautious in respect Of al
coholic drinks. The former. so the
court decides, must take chances. The
other does not have TO take anything
more serious than the life of his alb
stemiOus neighbor The law does not
forbid this course. When a man has
STEPPED his system in liquor and feels
occasion for Kidding himself of surplus
energy he may with safety draw a
pistol and use any convenient individ-
ual as a target. In the first place. the
habit Of carrying weapons is sense
less and dangerous. and il might be
wished that the human arsenal before
acquiring a murderous degree Of en-
thusiasm. would undergo a process OF
disarmament However, II a court

Market for Wine.

Members of the American Wine
Growers Association have reached the
conclusion that Americans do not
drink enough wine, Allowing for a
natural prejudice on the part Of these
gentlemen. observers VIII admit that
the point is we'll taken.
In California. where wine is often
easier than good water to procure. is
cheap and fine, much of il is con-
sumed. The result does not promote
intemperance. There is not any ten
dency 10 use TOO much Of the wine.
while the circumstance OF using il In
moderation checks any inclination to-
ward stronger beverages. The Cali
fornia claret is a wholesome beverage,
as has been demonstrated. Reputable
makers place il upon the market free
from hurtful chemicals.
The use of this wine has been re-
stricted by several things. In the first
place. cheaply as it could be produced.
freight rates in the old days of South
ern Pacific supremacy were so extor-
tionate as to make shipment not only
devoid OF moderate profit, but certain
10 result in loss. The growers could
not pay the rate and reach the con-
sumers at a distance. Their only re-
course was TO send the wine abroad.
where il would be bottled and return
ed to this country under fancy French
labels, and at a price putting il out
Of reach Of the ordinary diner. Many
a person who posed as a connoisseur
would smack his educated lips over
the bogus French stuff. but would
have rejected it utterly if it appeared
as a genuine American product
II the wine growers want domestic
custom they will have to educate peo-
pie away from admiration OF things
foreign for the reason that they are
foreign, will have to make clear that
American wine is as good as French
because il often is Identical, and then
sell their wine at a reasonable figure.

TETRAHEDRAL KITES
