band. nailed ! woman 10 the drain
me- board Of q sink in her home IN
Piftsburg. On reading the news OF
this atroeious and fendish deed
there were general expressions Of
horror over t, and there should be.
but the expressions were generally
accompanied with words Of bitter
censure and reproaeh against the
brute who committed the act. Yet
when one reads into the story there
Is found as a motive the alleged tact
that the woman was accused Of N
fidelity BY her husband
# there is one thing that wli
arouse demoniacal passions of jea :
onsy. rare. hatred and madness
within the bosom Of a husband it IS
tbe thought that his own beloved
VIC has been untrue to him and it
i NOT denied that there is some
basis Of Justification for this violent
mental agitation providing there Is
sufficient grounds to give a foot
hold Of substantiarion to the thought
To wreck mans faith in. the
fidelity of the woman he has loved,
cherished and honored, is to wreck
his whole being and when it comes
with the sudden awfulness that i
sometimes does, he is temporarily
turned into a madpan land he is
not wholly responsible for what he
does. True some minds are Of an
oyeriealous nature, too prone TO
sieze trivial and circumstantial ev1-
dence as sufficient foundation for
fiying into fits of uncomfortable
rage, but the average mind as rule
carefully investigates and weighs,
or should do so, with what ethical
knowledge at command, the evidence
that is presented to the senses be
fore taking action upon it.
If the husband of,the woman who
is supposed to have so brutally mis-
treated her is of the average intelii-
genee and is not an Othello, not
subject to an aberrant state Of the
passion of jealousy-and it would
be a question for aienists-certain-
ly there is ground for the belief that
he had some provoking occasion for
his 6endish act. So condemnatipn
should not be impetuously placed
upon the man in this case until re-
Election brings out just cause for the
same. Yet there is probable cause
for the condemnation in the doet-
rine that each mind should cultl-
yate and aItruism that is opposed
to retaliatiye punishment ard holds
that one should suffer alone and let
divine punishment take its course.
In this case, however, there Is
brought to mind the great lesson OF
fidelity. both to man as well as
woman, the lesson based upon the
command in the decalogue and may
that lesson be impressed again and
again upon every mind that reads
these reflections upon this news
story from Pittsburg.

THE PRESIDENT EN- VOYAGE.

There is indeed a tremendous
amount Of unnecessary and uRcalled
for caviling over President Roose-
velt's trip to Panama and Porto
Rico. As the Cincinnati Enquirer
saws, there is too much brewing Of
tempests in tea pots. Democratic
newspapers, jealous Of a highly sue
cessful administration are raising a
great rumpus over the matter and
are trying to prove something to the
effect that the nation is going to
everlasting smash because the Presi-
dent has broken one Of the honored
traditions Of the nation and is leav-
ing American soil when he has no
real right TO do so.
All this anxiety is senseless-
President Roosevelt is making a
trip to the isthmus where the Unit
ed States government is digging one
of the largest and most needful
canals in the world, waterway that
is to unite the two largest oceans
and make the water route between
our eastern and western shores and
the countries on the east and west
of us eleven to twelve thousand
miles shorter and waterway that
will be Of great naval and military
importance to the country. Roose-
welt is going down there to look af-
ter this work and to see about the
government and executive rule of
the strip Of land the United States
purchased for the canal He goes
on an official mission to carry out a
part of the duties incumbent upon
him as chief executive of the nation.
He is also going TO Porto Rico to
personally lcok after conditions
there and there is no debut that his
visit there will be of great good and
better enable him to cope with
measures affecting that insular pos
session Of the country.
The President viii not be off of
| American land and really no time
honored tradition will be shattered.
The warship he is now upon is held
to be American land, the strip of
land the United States bought and
paid for from Panama and Porto
Rico are United States property and
he will not have left the dominion
! Of The nation at all.
The probable reason that other
Presidents,of The United States have
not taken . sea voyage away from
the coasts Of The states is because
they have not had any occasion to.
The United States has not until re-
Gently had any business off of the
mainland of The original states. If
there had been any work such as is
now going on in Panama it is quite
likely that there would not now be
any claim to an sShonored tradition,
The President will be in direct
communication with the depart
ments at Washington all the lime,
and he will be in direct charge OF the
government all during his trip He
is merely doing his work as Presi-
dent as he thinks he should do it
aud II l. characteristic ~ him. whom
ever entering upon any undertake
ing, to throw his whole soul INTO the
work, TO give his best efforts and to
spare nothing to bring about "a sue
cessful elimination Of it. so is he
doing now his duties as he con-
scientiously believes to be the right
way and the best way. The people
Of the nation should give him all
the more honor and appreciation for
| the trip he is now taking. :.
