II POOr man, s LOzOyeT.
The current number of the B1oadzOuy contains
short sketch of Carl Fisher Hansen one of New ork
Citys prosperous attorneys. For years Mr. Hansen
has made it practice to visit the police courts and
to voluntarily offer his service to any poor man who
was unable to retain experienced counsel He does
this without pay He believes that the poor are en-
titled to good representation before the bar as the
man who occupies more prosperous station in life
Carl Fisher Hansen is notsa spectacular lawyer
is he required to devote his talent toward help
ing those who unable to defend themselves He
performs these services act Of justice-a moral
obligation. 1t should be remembered that Mr.. Han
does not offer his professional service to every
body. It is the honest poor whom he endeavors to
disentangle from the meshes Of the law, and thus
save them from life Of crime and degradation

ANOrchY Must Go.


SINCE the attempt on the life of the king of Spain
and the recent sailing from this country Of a>noted
anarchist whose purpose to assassinate the kai-
SER the entire world has become stirred as to what
disposition to make Of this class of people. Several
nonfeasible methods have been suggested One is

Russia has been transporting anarchists for years.
but it has proved abortive as to attempt to keep
them constantly under police surveillance This
method has tendency to make them more cunning,
and, consequently, they likely to become more
vindictive
It would seem that it would be more expeditions
for Russia and other countries to remove the princ-
Piles which propagate anarchy. tits true that those
who openly profess and advocate the assassination Of
the head of nation should in every instance, be
treated the same he who threatens the life of his
neighbor. On the continent, anarchists dealt
with severely, but their evil propensites carried
out with much deliberation as if they plan
ming the building of continental railway. There is
a great deal of i'll feeling among anarchists much

The people Of San Francisco very indignant
against the insurance adusters who sent there
to settle their losses Some Of the companies which
magnanimous than the others, are paying
dollar for dollar without any qubbling. The ma
jority however, seeking technicalities and COM
polling the sufferers to settle at ruinous figure
These companies committing serious
blunder. Atho they may save few thousand dol
lars by their present tactics they will lose twice this
sum in prestige. Those companies that gave the
San Franciscans square DEAL will never havecause
for regret but those that took advantage Of
the peculiar situation, will be advertised sharpers
This will cause thousands Of people to avoid doing
business with them. Sharp practices may succeed
at times, but in the long run they are bound to
wreck any concern. no matter how strong it may be
financially.

Efforts to Save Patrick.

Gov. Higgins, of New York, received
yesterday petition for the exercise OF
executive clemency in the case OF Albert
T. Patrick, .he New York lawyer con-
fined in Sing Sing prison under sentence
to die in the week beginning January
% for the murder Of the aged millionaire,
William Marsh Rice.
The petition is signed by nearly 100
well-known persons, including lawyers,
physicians and chemists, clergymen and
laymen, and is based upon the ground
that there is reasonable doubt OF his
guilt
1t is especially set forth that the cor
oner's physician who made the autopsy
imu ediatey after death gave it as his
opinion that Rice died OF natural causes
and old age, but subsequently, on the
witness stand declared that be had been
killed by chloroiorm; that the subse-
ouent examination OF the body, which
formed the basis of the testimony adverse
to Patrick, was made ate the process OF
embaIming, (Which would efiectually
DESTROY ali minute evidences of death
either from natural causes or chloro-
FORM" that the cone containing chloro-
form would probably have fallen from
position had the victim BEEN alive; that
the seIf-confessed murderer jones', who
turned States evidence, was, in the
opinion of the petitioners, irresponsible;
had made at least four different and con-
Trajectory confessions, and was of doubt
iul sanity and unworthy of belief.
The petitioners call attention TO the
dissenting opinion Of Chief Judge Cul-
len and Judge OBrien against the
Judgment Of the Court of Appeals al
tirming Patiick's conviction.
The signers OF The petition include
Grover Cleveland, John &. Carlisle,
Former Supreme Court Justice Edward
w. Hatch, aud a large number Of
prominent members of the New
York city bar; Samuel l.. Clemens
MARX Twain, Allan McLane Hamil-
tos, the well. known allinist; DR.. Austin
Flint. head of the Bellevue Medical
School, and many other physicians and
chemists of standing; Re-. DR.. Charles
H. Parkhurst, Rev. DIR. Madison Q.
Peters, Rev. DR.. Thomas Hughes, Da-
vid Belasco, Lieut.. Col. H. d. BOrup,
U. S. A. (retired), and Robert Erskine
Ely, director of the League for Political
Education. The petition was taken
to Alabauy by Robert G. Mccormick,
who filed it personally with the governor.
Gov. Higgins said last night that he
did not know when he would act upon
the matter, but that he did not expect
10 give a public hearing. He would
give no intimation of his probable action
in the case, but assured Mr.. Mccormick
that he had already given it some at
ten,ion, and would consider it with the
utmost care.

Attacked hy Negroes.

Lower Delaware is excited about an
attack by two negroes on little white
girl, and threats of lyuching are heard.
The victim is the 5-year-old daughter
of w. d. Boyles, an employee of the
Smyrna gas works. So incensed were
the people of Smyrna that Magistrate
rilghman, before whom the negroes,
Joseph Coppage and Herman Camille,
were arraigned, committed Them to the
Kent county Jail, at Dover, without
delay. According to the story Of the
child, Lillian Boyles, and her brother,
who was with her, as well as white
woman, who witnessed the affair from a
distance, the girl was approached by
two negro men after they bad pulled up
small stream on the outskirts OF
Smyrna in a boat The white woman
rescued the child and took her home,
where the facts were made known to the
chid's parents. Warrants al once were
sworn out for the negroes, and no time
was lost in locating them aud arraignlng
them before Magistrate Tilghman. The
outrsges in lower Delaware by the ne
groes for the past several years have
grown to such proportions that there is
a feeling of general alarm for the safety
of the wives and daughters of the whites
who are compelled to travel the public
highways.

Norton Dictum Opposed.

Since DR.. Osler's famous dictum that
men should be chloroformed at 60 nc
public utterance has created more pro-
found sensation among thinking men Of
humanitarian professions than the letieI
of Dr. Charles Eliot Norton, late pro.
fessor of literature at Harvard, TO Mis-;
Aunie Hall on the question of justifica'
tion for killing the hopelessly diseased,
the hopelessIy insane and the hopeles:
sufferers fionl accident. 1t should be
said that the unanimous opinion ol
leading physicians and clergymen in
New York s against DR.. NOrton's con-
tention that the taking of life is justi-
fable.
Rev. Henry c. Swentzell, former
Baltimore pastor, says: 81 believe that
the view that it would be merciful and
humane to permit the ending of live in
certain cases where suffering is intense
and continuous without hope of relief is
theoretically unassailable. Practically
speaking, hswever, ! DO not believe that
any human tribunal is wise enough Il
pass upon ouch cases.
al am firmly opposed to any attempt
to bring about such practice. My op'
position is based on two gr0unds-hrst,
the religious one that human life should
never be ended in spite of the provision;
ofGod; second, that even in cases of ap'
parently hopeless suffering, the wises
man or commission Of men must needs
be fallible."
Rev. DIR. Alexander Lyons, a rabbi o
the State Street Temn!e, Brooklyn, said
IL am in accord with the teachings o
Judaism that the taking of life excep
as a recompense for life, is murder.
90 ilrtter than that and am personally
opposed to the taking of human life, bu
that is beside the present question. From
the Jewish standpoint, 1t is unchangesbl.
forbidden to do anything to shorten hu
man life. Life is regarded as Coos spe
cial gift and is too sacred to be touched
God alone should decide when life ma.
end. In keeping with this teaching
judaism looks upon the man who wiItul
ly shorlens life, whether his own or tha
of another, as murderer.
