A LAWYERS NOVEL SUGGESTION

ReeIsburg Times One of the most
effective speeches made before the
senate in the Senator Eaton case Tues
lay was that by Senator A. W. San
orn of Ashland. He declared it was
4 question of simple, old-fashioned
honesty and that the senate should so
egard it. Too many persons, the
speaker pointed out. were accustomed
O turn to the statutes to ascertain
or not any certain act was
honest or dishonest He suggested
that it wouli be better to measure
ones acts by the original statutes
the ten commandments that
IN considering the pending case legal
technicalities be avoided. 1t is very
evident that Senator Sanborn's sug-
gestion appealed to the judgment of
he senate and that the people Of the
state very generally will approve of
E. Senator Sanborn is a lawyer
md a good one, too-hence his sug-
;estion that legal technicalities be
,verlookel at times and that questions
h0uld sometimes be considered from
he standpoint of common honesty and
measured by the ten commandments
somewhat remarkable. The more
general obsrance of his suggestion by
he legal fraternity would, undoubted-
y, result in great good.

ACTRESS FATE
READY FOR JURY

New York, May 3.-The fate of
Nan Patterson will be in the hands
Of the jury early today Assistant
District Attorney Rand completed his
closing argument for the prosecution
yesterday afternoon and court adj
journed for the day. Recorder Golf
announced that he would charge the
Jury today. 1t is not believed that his
instructions will be lengthy and prob
ably before noon the jury will have
retired to consider the verdict
At the close of the argument yes
terday, after Prosecutor Rand had ar
raigned her in the most scathing
terms, had asserted that her silence
in this trial was a confession of guilt,
had declared that her sister had lied
on the stand and that her counsel
had based his plea for her life on
foundation of fabrications, Nan Pat
terson said she still felt conf dent that
the jury would acquit her.

The SUICIDE.

One of the pitiful weaklings who
courts, caught at safe crimes, is dis
sected and charted by Villa Sibert
Gather in Paul's Case, in McClure's.
1t is journey to the hidden places
of human nature. The story searches
the inmost heart Of the lad whose ma
ture is his insurmountable handicap.
1t follows his brief days of hungry
enjoyment of his swag. Here is the
end:
when he reached a little hillside,
where the tracks ran through a cut
some twenty feet below him, he stop
ped and sat down. Then he dozed a
little from his weak condition, seem
ing insensible to the cold
'"The sound of an approaching train
awoke him, and he started to his feet,
remembering only his resolution, and
afraid lest he should be too late. He
stood watching the approaching loco
motive, his teeth chattering, his lips
drawn away from them in frighten-
ed smile; once or twice he glanced
nervously sidewise, as though he
were being watched. When the right
moment came, he jumped. AS he fell,
the folly of his haste occurred to him
with merciless clearness, the vast
ness of what he had left undone.
There flashed through is brain, clear
er than before, the blue Adriatic wa
ter, the yellow of Algerian sands.
HE felt something strike his chest,
and that his body was being thrown

SAME OLD LOVE STORY.

The Love Story as it used to be.
From Frank Ellslie's Monthly Feb
3, 1855 She was indeed
beautiful, with delicate, cameolike
features, a wealth of shimmering hair,
and great violet eyes, whose long cur
ling lashes swept her velvet cheek. In
robe of pale blue gauZe, with neck
lace and bracelets of pearls. She was
vision TO enrapture any man, most of
all.
Sir Guy, casting aside all thought of
the consequences, reckless of the i'm
pending danger, now nearer than
ever, folded her in his arms and COW
cred her face with mad kisses. Then,
gently, she released herself and point
ed to the secret staircase
and now co. she implored. "GoG
or we are LOST"
He paused an instant with one foot
on the stair. She never forgot that
backward look. In moment he was
gone, and Elaine was left weeping,
and alone, in the gerat red velvet,
chair.

"Candor is all right in it's place."
he said, ''but out of place it is un-

ing forward, she said:
How pretty your eyes are, dear
Flank you,' said the little girl.
The lady laughed Then she
said:

The little girl answered promptly
in clear voice audible half a mile:

Mr.. Mccormick spoke of the centGry's
friendship uniting France and the
United States in an alliance more en-
during than that of treaties. He re-
iferred also to the recent closer feel
ing Of friendship between France ANA
the mother country of America. These
feelings of friendship, he said, were of
the greatest benefit to the commercial
and pacific interests, which are those
CT the progressive world.
President Loubet, replying, said
that France had no prouier heritage
than her participation in the work
which brought the powerful American
nation into being. More than GEN.
tury's test had not been able to inter
lupt the friendship first established.
AS Mr.. Mccormick withdrew the
American anthem was again heard
and the party was escorted with mill
tary ceremony back to the American
embassy.

surprised TO receive almost double tho

anything to do with it. The peas IRE
rich in protein and therefore should
assist in forming eggs. The exercise in
securing the peas is another factor
which recommends the crop to the poul-
