NEW HAND AT CRIME.

Detective Gibson is Of the opinion
that the crooks who committed the
Frte6e and Phtzner murders and who
killed the japanese banker did not
take part in the assault on Hopson' al
though he admits that it parallels
them in arrant daring
Gibson says:
Men with one murder charge hang
ing over them would hardly seek 10
have another one placed against them
unless the reward was great. The
amount OF money which could be Sc
cured from a small hardware store
would not tempt the robbers Of the
Japanese bank. They made large
haul and are now probably lying low.
The crimes following in the wake
OF the bank robbery are but limitations.
The men who assaulted BOokkeeper
sullivan at the store OF Gildea & Co.
on Market street and the parties who
sought 10 rob Hopson did not show
the same brutality which characterized
the other crimes.
Neither sullivan nor Hopson was hit
after being felled. In the other cases
the victims were beaten to death, and
when the operators were sure that
their victim would tell no tales, they
then proceeded TO rob. The last two
crimes can be put down 20 new men.
In the case Of Hopson his assailant
did not make any search for money,
but was apparently frightened away

HELP NEAR AT HAND.

There were ten or twelve carpen-
tiers at work across the street at the
time OF the assault An outcry would
have brought relief and the capture
Of the assailant.
I do not believe the murderers OF
Phtzner. Friede and the japanese
banker had any hand in the two latest
outrages. No effort viii be spared
however. in trying to run the criminals
down"
Hopson's description Of the man who
assaulted him corresponds to the de-
scription furnished by neighbors of a
man who has been acting suspiciously
around the Richmond district for the
last three days

Rule of the Boss Passing.

That we are passing from a period
of political corruption TO a period OF
pure public government, was the
theme of sermon preached Sunday
by DR.. Emil G. Hirsch at the Sinai
temple Chicago.
/ "The political boss that preys upon
us will soon be thing of the past,
he said in part. "His existence is pos
sible because America was infected
by money disease. Our land was
under the influence Of creed that
worshiped gold instead of God.
Everyone endeavored to amass all he
could, no matter what the means
we're. Success in the attainment of
The dollar meant all Regeneration
in our political life has to come. The
indications for new state of affairs
are already becoming apparent
The people are beginning to assert
themselves The rule of the corrupt
boss is being placed in full view.
THE masses are beginning to feel
that the government is not for cor
rupt individuals. They are beginning
to feel that what the, public produces
belongs to the public; that no indi-
vidual has right to the labors of
others. Hence the cry for public
ownership; hence the growth of or
CARNATIONS that recognize society
above individual. TIL moral regener-
alton has to come WIN we will all
recognize that the individual belongs
to society and not society to individ
ual; when the equation of life will
not be expressed in terms of success
but in terms of contribution"

What Women Are Doing.

An Austin minister undertook 10
tell his people that a woman who
could not cook should not marry.
That is going too far. There are
women who were made to live by the
pen. Many of them have succeeded
admirably as cattle raisers. One OF
them is the best skipper on Lake
Michigan. Some of them are shrew1
merchants or real estate dealers. A.
a general thing no woman should
fail to be good cook, but there are
many exceptions to the rule and the
minister ought to have said so, for
he may have had some of them in
his congregation.--Chicago Chron-
icle. -.

The BRYAN Meeting.

VIM. Jennings Bryan arrived in
Plymouth at 2:15 and was driven al
once to the stand erected in front ol
Bunnelrs furniture store There were
about 1000 people present when he
began speaking, but the wind blew
almost gale and the crowd made al
the noise that it could, consequently
less than 200 people heard two dozen
words of his address
But it was Bryan day, the people
saw him and can read in the city
dailies what he intended to say They
saw him, heard his voice, and saw
the wave of his hands and the motion
of his head and they are satisfied.
