CatarTh usually begins with a cold in

the ears have a ringing or buzzing noise,
the throat becomes sore, and as the un-

One Difficult Type.

A negro of this city just released
from Jail, where he had served a year
for beating his wife, hurried to the
house Of the woman, and III accord
ance with threat. tried to kill her
with knife.
This type of brute is a difficult one
with which to deal. It is a fair pre-
sumption that he has no conscience to
which to appeal There would not be
the slightest objection to whipping
him If there was hope that the process
would do any good, but in all Hkeli-
hood it would make him worse. Il a
year In Jail had no subduing effect,
certainly the short but painful touch
of the lash would only arouse the
creature to new fury. He would be
in murderous mood, and his passion
worked up to a reckless pitch.
On general principles the belief is
accepted that the man capable Of de-
liberately beating a woman is capable
of any crime from the commission OF
which he is not barred by eowardiee.
Therefore, punishment for this Of
tense should take into consideration
the character of the prisoner as re-
vealed by the offense itself
Assault with a deadly weapon is
actuated by exactly the impulse that
leads to murder. Failure TO complete
the crime does not argue any better
or less dangerous attributes than the
most complete success. This man
has earned the severest treatment
that can be melted out by the law.
Another short term would be made
quate He needs long term, sub
ject to the discipline Of the peniten-
tiary. 1t would be wise public policy
to send him to the penitentiary now
and support him there, rather than
allow him one more chance to per-
petrate the butehery that Is in bis
heart.

Just plain recognition Of justice and

Under this rule Cuba would still be

United States would not have been

more, but have by education dragged
