HOrsewhipping vs.. Assassination.

Ordinarily If a man persists in
moiesting another mans wife. the indig-
naut husband is justified in administer
ing a thorough hOTse-whipping Whether
men should resort TO assassination in
case of this kind depends largely upon
the Intimate nature of each particular
case Life should be taken only where
preservation Is involved. or in the
defense of helpless innocence, or In the
face of such overwhelming pr0vOcatiOn
that there Is no. time for calm reflection.
In such events, the law considers
motive.
ION the bare face of facts. 1t looks
very much as If ThGw was carried away
by passionate instinct and tnaJ he di1
not consider his action IN all its bear
ings.
Whatever White may have been. he
was entitled 70 be given the benefit OF
whatever doubt there could have been
IN the matter and IL his life was to be
taken. IL should only have been done Oji
the sOundesL possible evidence and then
only under such conditions as i have
outlined.
This affair will undoubtedly call the
attention of the public TO the doings Of
society men who prey on the lives of
the innocent That there is need for
legislative interference IN America /
have no doubt. ] understand that my
book cXertcd no small influence in pro-
tecting young girls in that country but
II such orgies have taken place as
some newspapers recount IL is high time
the public should investigate these mat
TeTg.

Quick Justice Desired.

Personally. I would be very glad to
see quick Justice meted out to all men
who prey upon female virtue. They are
in a measure beyond the reach OF the
law ih most cases and unless some fate
befalls them as TO be suddenly killed by
another man, who feels he is Kidding
the earth of a moral leper, they so
absolutely uuscathed.
At the same time when a man under
takes 10 slay another be should be per
Iectly wiling i'm committing that act 10
lose his own life. Unless he feels that
iu killing another man. he is quite pre-
pared to lay down his own life for the
one he is sacTincing, then his motive is
not an honorable one.
IN killing White, perhaps Thaw felt
ne would be Kidding the world Of a man
who well deserved to be slain as White
was killed. Whether Ihaw had any
such notion, or whether he had been
carried away by insane jealousy is not
q matter that IN the present phase Of
the case could be adJudged correctly.

By considering the cooling OF the
earth and by tracing backward the
process OF cooling Lord Kelvin came
to "a definite estimate Of the greatest
and least number Of million years
which can possibly have passed since
the surface Of the earth was every
where red hot" This estimate he ex-
pressed in the following words:
I'VE are very ignorant as to the ef-
fects Of high temperatures In altering
the conductivitles and specific heats
and melting temperatures Of rocks and
as to their latent heat Of fusion. We
must therefore allow very wide limits
in such an estimate as ! have attempt
ed to make. but I think we may with
much probability say that the consoll-
dation cannot have taken place less
than 20O00.OO0 years ago. nor more
than 100000 years ago, or we should
now have more underground heat than
we actually have."-St. Louis Globe
