IMPORTANT DECISION
IN \ SUNDAY LAW VIOLATION
CASE BY JUDGE BELL.
- 'Circun1stantial Evidence, to the Ira we'd
and Careful Judicial Mind. Is the
Best Kind Of Evidcncc~-Direct
Evidence Is Not Necessary"

| IN important decision has been ren
dcrcd by Judge r. r. Bell in the cas-
| Of Lowenthal, who had been found guilt,
Of violating the Sunday law and wa
aned SIS AMI costs in the City Court
from which he appealed.
In justice to Mr.. Lowenthal we wou'e
say that he is not Of the class. the very
| few in number, who have repeated,
| manifested their contempt Of The law b,
disreearding it with impunity with door!
barrel against the police. As citizet
Mr.. Lowenthal has always been conser
vative and progressive and assumed the
right, to sell because others. the few who
have been repeatedly in court as VIC.
1ators. have sold and hase escaped on the
discrelitcd evidence Of the police max
ing the affidavit.
The evidence against Lowcnthai was
direct and therefore he could not escape
through the techncalities
In passing sentence on the accused
Judge Bell sail:
"Ihe object Of the Sunday law was
not to uphold moral and religious theo-
ries, but it was created for the salutary
purpose of giving rest and recreation to
mankind.
It was the intention of Moses, ! be
lieve. when be ordered that the seventh
LAY be set aside for rest that it be done
for the preservation Of the Jewish race
SO that they could recreate mentally
and physically, and it was a wise provis
ion
"1iie law did not intend this provision
for moral Or religious purposes. 1t makes
no difference whether the man goes tc,
the woods tc hear the rustic of the leave
Or to listen to the birds sing or whether
he goes to church, or what not, but it
was especially. intended for recreation
purposes
There was a time in this state in 1860
when the lottery combination organized
legislation for the purpose Of repeating
he Sunday law, which was passed and
afterward vetoed by Governor Nichols,
and several Of the barkeepers in the town
told me that they felt as though all OF
their liberty had been taken away from
them until the governor came to their
rescue anI relieved them.
AS to circumstantial evidence in cases
of this sort. | have come to the concl,i-
sion that while it may be somewhat
dangerous in the hands of the untutored,
yet to the trained and careful judicial
mind it is the best kind OF evidence, for
# you had to prove every act by direct
md positive testimony it would be i'm
possible to reach the vioIators of the
law.
In this case the testimony Of the de-
feniant does not impress me very
strongly, for if his motives were good
why should he have this "peeping
hole" device, and permit strangers to en-
ctr, but as soon as the uniformed guard
ians Of the lives and property Of the
people Of this city make their appearance,
the way is Immediately barred?''
In this case the fine was increased
from SIS to $Ios. .-s

ENGLEsH E1rIGRATlON.

England is, in some respects, good
country for the poor man to get away
from, and the United States is, in many
respects. a good country for the poor
man to come to. 1t has been disclosed
in London that last year 2sl.945 per-
sons >emigrated from the United King
dom to the United States of America,
while during the same period only 91,6S4
persons emigrated from the United
Kingdom to Canada. South Africa and
Australia make even a poorer showing
in this respect; the number going to
South Africa from the United Kingdom
last year being S2,27S. and the number
to Australia 1920. The number of Brit
ish emigrants coming to this country
last year was 10000 larger than the
number of those who came the year
before.
English emigration doesn't seem to be
very complimentary to either the old
country or the colonies thereof. This
country was once an English colony
but it couldn't stand it.

though he is unwilling to forego his

On reaching home he Is too tired to en-
joy any healthy exercise, and a third
meal, ]. e., dinner, follows upon the

is suddenly attacked with appendicitis
and placed in considerable danger.
3 The moral is to eat ones meals de-
liberately. leaving time for the. COM
mencement of the process of digestion
before imposing undue strain on the
muscles by rushing to the station, or
the mental faculties by any Intellectual
effort such as a smart financial tram
saction. Look again at the young de-
butant who has appeared at her first
drawing room. Her subsequent season
has been a full one, containing much to
weary the flesh, while the mind has not
been inactive, '. She has eaten rich food
often at late hours, with the inevitable
result of indigestion, and in due time
appendicitis. Lastly, turn to, the child
of the poor, fed on atrociously unsuita-
BILE food, the mere infant having exact
" the same as its parent. and how can
we wonder that 1t should fall a prey to
the ever ready bacterial forces? 1t will
thus be realized that the medical pro-
fession looks upon the modern life of
lush, strain and worry, with unwhole-
some diet and irregular habits, as one
of the principal causes of the increase
iof appendicitis, and 1t believes that
those who wish to avoid this ailment
must live more plainly, take matters
more easily and pay greater attention
to what nature proclaims as rational
existence. Remember, that one attack
Iof appendicitis is liable to be followed
+ by another at an unknown interval, and
the survival of the first may succumb
TO the second. AS has been suggested,
much can be done to avoid the onset of

SIIUR4L CAUSES.

After "a healthy reaction" such as
stocks have been having it is always
interesting to read the cheering talk
put forth by "best known bankers
conservative financiers," ETC., etc. 1t
is invariably smooth, and so explana-
tory of the way in which people have
lost their money that it is good to read,
even though the reading is just about
what it always has been and always
will be as long as there is stock mar
ket. This time we are told that these
reports" which have been very care
fully investigated by the most promi-
nent banking interests, were found to
be unwarranted. The president of one
of the strongest trust companies in
Wall street declared that the stock
market decline had, in his judgment,
been brought about by perfectly nat
ural causes, owing to the very high
basis for values, and said that there
was no reason why the reaction should
| not benefit prices, now that the upward
tendency had set in. He said too that
there was nothing in the financial situ-
alton to alarm anybody, and that with
proper moderation the stock market
will in all probability partially make up
the losses. He added that some issues
had been altogether too high
And more of the same. No man who
has lost his money by natural causes"
has any right to kick, and when he
knows that his loss is for the general
good he should be entirely resigned. If
he isn't it wont make any difference, so
he might as well be.

Hints on How to Avoid This Dread
Disease.

Hints on How to Avoid This DREAD
Disease. -
1.-THE resent Huxley lecture delivered
by Sir william Macewen has once
again raised the oft recurring question
so painful to the public: Why is APP
pendicitis so common at the present
timer" says the National Review. This
affliction spares neither age nor. sex
and it is equally. dreaded in palade and
cottage. The king has been among its
victims nor has 1t neglected the pitia-
bic vagrant on the ENHANCEMENT. An
infant of seven weeks has ! recently
succumbed to the baneful infiammatory
process, while a medical ,baronet long
past the allotted span of threescore
years and ten has happily, fought a
successful fight against appendicitis
The idle girl without definite employ
ment, succumbs, as also does the SOL
der on active service The schoolboy is
particularly prone and the affection
does not ignore the hign dignitary oil
the church. Can It, be that the small
blind tube placed within the abdomen
has suddenly become vulnerable to as.
saut or is it that there is some pectl.
liarly potent force now at work which
did not formerly exist? 1t is not to be
denied that more accurate diagnosis
has led to an apparent increase in the
number of cases of the complaint. Per
itonitis, or inflammation of the lining
membrane of the abdomen. has al
ways been a common and a dreaded
malady, but the precise cause of the in
