TESTIMONY ALL IN.
Recorder Golf Reserves Decision In
 Patrick Case.

New York, May 23.-Today ended the testimony and arguments in Albert T. Patricks hearing for new trial, during which his case has been twice reprleved. Recorder Golf reserved his decision, giy- ing until Friday for the filing of briefs. The hearing closed with a dramatic ap- peal by MT. Jerome to the defense and the court for the privilege of permitting Frederick B. House, Patrick's lawyer during the latters trial on the charge of murdering William Marsh Rice, to unseal his lips from his professional pledge of secrecy and tell the court what had been said in confidence to him by Charles F. Jones' Rlce's valet.
 William K. Olcott, Patrick's counsel, Jumped to his feet, exclaiming:
 T object to this miserable grand stand play of the district attorney"
 Recorder Golf denied motion of Mir. Jerome to recall MT. House. and said that statements of counsel would have absolutely no effect on the mind of the court, unless borne out by evidence.
 A motion by MT. Olcott to recall a wit ness for rebuttal testimony on the effects of embalming fluid was denied
 MT. Jerome said on this point: We will never finish with this case at that rate, and the defendant will in all probability die in the death house of old age"

scarcely considered by the thief. Houses with the numbers mentioned above, how ever, are avoided.
 Members of the housebreaking frater- nity, according to the statements of expe- rienced detectives. will never again visit house in which their work has been dis turbed. On the other hand. they will re- sort again and again to houses they have successfully plundered. The police are well aware of this fact. and they fre- quently catch men by waiting for the next visit.
 No thieves like buying absolutely new boots. In no circumstances can they be persuaded to part with footgear they wore while their depredations were successful.
 For thief to break a blood vessel and recover his good health Is regarded as the luckiest thing possible in more senses than one. It Is supposed that such man will be fortunate fin escaping Jail for the remainder of his days.
 All habitual criminals regard the Bible with awe They will do anything to evade looking at 1t or touching it.

 These tips were given to the police to- day by a South Chicago housebreaker who was caught in an effort to enter house that had been robbed successfully four times within the last six months. The thief explained that he was first at tracted to the house by the stars and stripes floating from the first floor win dow, and according to robber supersti- tion that was an invitation to work the flat" He also admitted having robbed the house several times previously. rely Ing on the superstition that 1t was per fectly safe in visiting house he had suc- cessfully plundered.
 Mr. Burglar, who was in talkative mood, went on to supplement the many items of information on burglar superst- ton already in the hands of detectives. He said no housebreaker or pickpocket would dream of working unless he had in his pocket, or somewhere about his person, either a small piece of coal, chalk or lucky stone to guard against misfor- tune.

What Character Consists Of.
Proper Adjustment of Desires.

Now this new ethics is to help you so to organize your own physical life as to put each natural desire Into its proper re- lation to every other that the whole will produce the best result In enriching your experience In life. For these desires will be the motive powers which not only give progress to life, but to large ex- tent determine the direction life will take in your social situation. According to this ethics life is but the self-adjusting its en- yironment to It's own conscious desires, and in turn stimulating and developing the desires with the ever changing and progressing environment. This action and reaction of self on society and society on self constitutes the life process, not only of the individual but also of the social organism of which the individual Is a member. So the organization of yourself determines your function in the social world and it's effect on your fellow mem- bers of society. As the shifting social situations come and go you will affect them according to what you are. A really educated woman is one prepared to adjust the objective world to properly or ganized character.

RUSSIA DEFINES
 PLAN IF AMNESTY Official Statement Issued to the
 Russian People Today MANY ARE LIBERATED EuII Ananaefu Gannnf Ra Hran+aI IIntil
Full Amnesty Cannot Be Granted Until Terrorist Demonstrations Cease. Bomb Throwers Must Be
 Punished.

St. Petersburg. May 2s.-The following official statement of the government justifying the refusal to grand plenary amnesty was given. out tonight and made publishable in all the papers of Russia to- morrow:
 "The question of full political amnesty, which has been raised in parliament and which is included in the lower houses ad- dress to the Emperor and supported by several organs of the Russian press is far from sympathetic in responses
 Tt is impossible to avoid noticing a strong current of feeling against full amnesty in different classes of the population where it is pointed out poiti- cal assassinnations do not cease. News is daily telegraphed from the provinces of fresh murders or attempts to murder officials. In the presence of such an ir- reconcilable disposition on the part of the adopts of the terrorists societies, the government cannot expose the peaceful, right thinking section of the population to danger The government cannot re- frain from bringing to justice terrorists and bomb throwers. It cannot deliver from punishment by judicial sentence people who have committed and still are com ritting such crimes.
 Many Are Liberated.
 Concerning those who have been ar rested by administrative operation, many already have been and others willa be lib- erated after careful investigation of the cause of arrest. The full pardon of all who have been arrested by administra- tive order is possibility and it may also be possible to abrogate definitely by leg islative order states of war, extraordinary defense, etc, and further 10 institute judicial prosecution in localities where the revolutionary movement displays it. self Judicial repression at present is impossible in those districts owing to terrorizing and assassination even of wit nesses summoned to testify before the courts. But the over excited state of public feelings above all in the districts referred to is unpropritious to the re- vision abrogation of exceptional laws. '' The publication in this mornings official Gazette ukases fixing the dates for cleo tion of members for the lower house of parliament in the Caucasus and Siberia has evoked the sarcastic comment of the laders of the opposition that the Elm peror is the first to violate the new fundamental law and decrees which he signed May 8. the ukases not bearing the countersign of minister as required by the constitution. M. Shppoff, formerly minister of finance, was today named a member of the council of the state bank.

Kansas City business men have per-
fected plans for a line of packets TO
run between that city and St Louis,
one vessel already having been re-

Kansas City fleet is merely the fore
funner of great river squadrons that
will soon ply the waters of the big

pointing out that freight can be car
