the drunken loafers in camp, he threw
his capital away with as much abandon
as if he had an unlimited supply.
When he reached the end of his re-
sources he went to a friend, secured a
'grubstake" loaded his burros and
started again for the hills Chase does
not seem to have had a real friend in
Goldfeld. If he had had one he would
not have been permitted to throw away
this money, for 1t would have kept him
in comfort for the balance of his days
1t would have been an act of genuine
kindness if somebody had locked Chase
up when his spending fever began and
had kept him locked up until the crisis
was over. Nobody thought Of doing

TO do all the spending. to take a gang
of drunken rowdies from one saloon to
another filling them up on poisonous
whisky
In the solitude of the hills Chase un-
dOubtedly realizes all this now As he
plods along over the rocks his thoughts
must be bitter, but regrets are too late
TO avail him now. There is. though. the
hope that some other fool viii profit by
his example. Money lacks a good deal
of being the best thing in the world.
and the requirement Of money just for
the sake of having it is mean, sordid
ambition.
But there are worse things in the
world than money. too. One Of them
is the misuse of il. Chase has learned
this lesson to his cost.

AN UNFORTUNATE DECISION.

T HE ACTION Of the supreme court
! in granting a new trial to Shock
ley. the murderer Of the street car men,
Gleason and Brighton, win be regretted
by those who believe that. when a clear
case has been made out against a de-
PENDANT, when his guilt has been clear
y proven, he should be punished with
out delay. There is no question about
Shocllley's guilt It was shown at the
trial that he fired the shots that killed
Brighton and Gleason.
The supreme court finds him guilty,
for il says that he cannot plead, as
claimed by his attorneys. that he
changed his mind about robbing his vic
Tins and fired in self-defense. Yet
