on Tuesday of this week. If it
were not a fact that it is the
custom for petit juries to turn
murderers' loose the country at
large would be surprised
at this verdict. But convictions
for killing a human being are so
very rare that such verdicts are
not expected, even in the most
aggravated cases. Here we have
a jury charged with the duty of
passing on the innocence or guilt
Of men who admitted that they
were members of a mob seeking
to take the life of a prisoner; in
the effort to secure their man
they wantonly murder the sher-
if of the county while he is liv-
ing up to his oath as an official
by trying to protect his prisoner.
The jury finds the self-confessed
vould-be murderers innocent of
any wrong in killing the sheriff
Of their county and announce to
The world that the members Oh
this mob are not guilty of any
degree of homicide whatever,
although a braveofficial loses his
life at their hands. How such a
verdict c. n be reached by men
under the oath of petit jurors is
hard to comprehend.

The handling Of the yellow
fever epidemic by specialists has
no doubt greatly reduced the
death rate from the disease, but
it has failed to confine the disease
within its original boundaries.
The disease has made its appear
ance at more places this year
than at previous year when the
disease was in this country.
This has been due to the fact
that the quarantine restrictions
have been very loose and obser-
we'd with no degree of strictness
at any point. In former years
the shotgun was brought into
play and when d town decided to
bottle up pickets were posted
On the outskirts and permits
and health certificates counted
for naught.

A Parable.

An American traveller. cross
ing Europe, bought a first-class
coach-ticket for a days ride
through mountainous country
where there was no railroad.
After riding on the coach for
some time it occurred to him that
he was very foolish to have
bought a first-class ticket when
all passengers apparently Jared
alike. And so, with that famous
American characteristic, he APP
pealed to the driver as to What
he got on his first-class ride that
the second and third-class pas
sengers did not?'
The driver assured him that
his value would appear before the
end of the journey, and it was
fully acknowledged by the Ameri-
can traveller when, as they came
to the bottom Of aseven-mile hill,
lust after dinner, the driver threw
down the reins and made this an
nouncement: First-class pas
sengers, please keep your seats!
Second-class passengers, get out
and walk! Third-class passen-
gers, get out and push!'
