Young Men, Star Right.

My friends, there isn't much to
tins world unless you work it about
night, says Bert Walker. II you
start out young by being crooked and
having no respect for your word and
no Iegard for hrtue and piety. you
will wake up some day and find your
self an old man without friends or
credit. Alttle longer and the potters
field will be your end. You can
make few dollars while YOU are
young by being a stinker. Your
youthful blood and flesh may find
temporary pleasure in feasting on
that which brings ruin and disgrace
TO others, but when the finger OF time
begins to mark fuTows on your brow
aud your blood turns 70 thin water,
things will change. The thing that
pays the biggest dividends of all is
TO be square. Ifyou will have no
kick coming when they prick you in
The days Of your gray hairs, talk to
the fellows who have tried sy stems
and it willnOt take you lOug 10 decide
which road 10 travel.

JONES CASE COSTS
-STAG(ER CARTER

In answer to request by the Gov.
ernor. Judge Robinson in a letter in
formed him that the cost Of the Jones
trial had been s3,963.55, of which g..
2lS.75 was for board Of jurors. He
also stated that the Naone case, which
will be heard next term, will be very
expensive and recommended an emer.
gency appropriation of $4,000 to cover
such expenses.
In response Governor Carter wrote
the following letter:
March II. 1905.
Honorable w. J. Robinson. Judge First
Circuit Court, Territory of Hawaii.
Dear Sir:-Yours OF March 10, Civ.
ing the cost of the trial OF the Jones
case. simply astounds me. In the face
of the financial situation Of the Terri.
tory, there is no reason why the courts
like the other departments. should not
make every endeavor to keep within
their appropriations. In disregarding
them, It might be readily taken by
some to be defiance of the legisla.
tive powers Of the Territory.
One Of the comments often heard In
relation to matters of American juris.
prudence is the great cost of murder
! trials, the long delay, and the arduous
duty Of jury service, and these are in
some communities the causes which
result In lawlessness, by bringing
about the feeling that the people had
| best take the law in their own hands.
Certainly, under the present practice
and laws of the Territory, the judges
have wide discretion, and II those re.
sponsible for the conduct Of the courts
cannot curtail unreasonable delays
and lavish expenditures. 1t will inevi.
tably result In a restriction OF the
power which every law-abiding and
selfIespecting community believes
should be given to the judges.
Respect for law is a marked charac.
teristic of American citizenship. and In.
telligent people naturally hesitate In
expressing disapproval OF the actions
OF any court, as 1t detracts from the
them. I believe public opinion in this
community approves of the wide lati
tude allowed the judges. but, on the
other hand, desires that this discre'
ton should be used with some regard
for the taxpayer.

BIG CHICAGO BANKS
GO TO The WALL
Assets Involved BY Failure Of John R.
Walsh, Of Chicago National Bank.
DEposI7oRs WILL Be PROTECTED.
The Amount of the Liabilities and As
sets Not Stated, But the Failure is a
Disastrous One for Chicago.

Chicago. December 1S.-The failure
Of the Chicago National Bank, the
Home Savings Bank and the Equitable
Trust Company was announced a.
$3.50 o'clock this morning. by repre-
sentatives Of the Chicago Clearing
House Association, after a session last
ing eighteen hours.
The assets of these institutions it
was asserted were involved in the coal
and prailroad properties of John r.
Walsh, president of the Chicago Ma
tional Bank.
Depositors will be protected by the
Cleo House Association.
A careful investigation Of affairs of
the three institutions by the Clearing
House Association show that all de-
positors can be paid in full upon de-
mand by the Clearing House. The
banks have pledged themselves to. this
result, thus putting all resources OF
the chicago UduhS DClIl11o IAAO OSpSS@
tors of these institutions. The diff
Guilty of the institutions has been that
their investments, had been made in
connection with the enterprises of
John R. Walsh, the head of all three
and the assets have not been imme-
diately available to meet the de-
mands. The assets have been taken
over on terms which will enable the
institutions pay creditors in full.
The Chicago National Bank has
s1s,OOO,0oO public moneys deposited
with it. The bank was oranized in
1891 and has resources Of S21, 100000.
Both of the other institutions have re-
sources sufficient to make good all de-
posts.

MURDER IN GAFFNEY.
Hotel Proprietor Kills One and

Gaffney, December 15.--This morn
ing the usual quiet of the city was dis
turbed about $40 O'clock by the re-.
port of a revolver three times in sue
cession, followed quickly by the
screaming Of women crying murder
The police responded to the call from
the Piedmont Inn, conducted by Hasty
Brothers. AS they went in a man
came out calling for a doctor.
Investigation showed that George
Hasty, one of the proprietors, had shot
and instantly killed Mr.. Milan Ben,
nett, musical director of Nothing
But Money company, which showed
here last night, and possibly mortally
wounded Mr.. Abbott Dawson, the
comedian and star performer. 1t was.
Mr.. Dawson who came down the steps,
calling for a doctor. The sheriff and
police force arrested Hasty and lodged
him in Jail. The coroner was notified
and empaneled jury. The jury was:
taken to the hotel where the dead
body was viewed and they adjourned
to meet at the court house at 1870
where the testimony was heard.
The difficulty which caused; the kill
ing grew out of a gross insult offered
the lady members of the company by
George Hasty. He first addressed in
sulting remarks to one lady in the af-
ternoon and during the night made
three attempts to break into the<room
of another.
