1t is certainly to be hoped when
the second trial of Harry Thaw for
the murder OF Stanford White begins
that the people will be spared IA rep
etition of the disgusting and demon
alizing details of the trial, so lar as
the evidence is concerned. We be-
lieve there has seldom, il ever. been
printed in such bold and unblushing
manner matter so totally unfit Tor
publication as that which filed the
newspapers during the progress oil
this now famous trial. Its pubhca-
ton has been justified by some on
the grounds that the exposure OF so
much wickedness and vice would
serve as warning to Others who ARE
treadiDg the gilded path which leads
to tragedies like the one under dis
cussion, but theexcuse hardly serves.
Grant that some few might be deter
red by the warning, yet think OF the
thousands Of young people to whom
the reading of the Thaw evidence is
more demoraGziDg than French
novel. Think of thepurity of thought
and mind which must have been de-
stroyed forever by the disclosures OF
this trial and their publication.
How absolutely dangerous and unit
for both young and old was the en-
tire Thaw proceeding. 1t should
never be republished, and there being
no law to prevent, the newspapers OF
their own volition should act togeth-
O., in concert to this end. In addi-
ton to the reasons stated above the
public is heartily tired OF Tbaw and
his trial and there is no demand for
a republication in full of what must
n .cessarily be the same matter.

THE THAW TRIAL.

After nearly three months con-
sumed in the trial OF Harry h. Thaw
for the killing OF Stanford White, and
an estimated expenditure OF over
$500, 700, nothing whatever has
been accomplished in the way OF de
termining his guilt or innocence. 1t
cannot be denied that this trial
affords either a striking illustration
OF the fact that we need radical re-
form in our Jury system, since under
the circumstances developed i'll the
Thaw case, and cases OF a similar
character it will almost invariably
be found that twelve men cannot be
found who will be of one mind as to
what verdict ought to be found. 1t
has frequently been suggested that
two-thirds OF three-fourth OF those
composing IA jury ought to have the
right to fix verdict, and while this
probably ought to be thecase in civil
cases, there will he many who will
cling to the righteousness OF a unan-
imous verdict in criminal cases, at
least for long time to come.

The degen0racy Of a good word was

honorably By meaning a person who

But ordinarily fellow" alone ranks

Sketch of One of the Great German

The Troedel market Is on a little Is

of the river Is an old, low eaved house
with little darkling doorway. When
you have got so far you are met BY
little old mana rusty little man VINO

GUS warehouse of toys.
Round all the walls they are ranged
gums, cannons, motors, steamships
trumpets, sabers, and everywhere the
soldiers. How many millions Of metal
soldiers have marched away from the
Troedel market not even the rusty old
man could tell you-mighty articles OF
pewter and tin.
Hundreds of regiments, Of battalions,
of divisions, are drawn up on the
shelves, waiting for the day when they
shall be sent out into battle. And
with a kind of pride the rusty old man
SAYS, They are edifying soldiers.
That is the German way Of putting
It. What 1t means Is that each army
illustrates a battle or a campaign

II q ham weighing thirty pounds

force Of the moon upon the ham
would amount to only Eve pounds.
There would be another weight OF the
ham for the planet Mars and yet an
other on the sun. A ham weighing
thirty pounds at New York ought to
weigh some 800 pounds on the suns
surface; hence the astronomer does not
speak Of the weight Of a planet, be-
cause that would depend upon the
place where it was weighed. But he
speaks of the mass of the planet,
which means how much planet there is,
no matter where 1t might be weighed.
At the same time we might, without
any inexactness. agree that the weight
of a heavenly body should be fixed by
the weight 1t would have in New
York As we could not imagine .

be larger than the earth itself, what
we are to imagine is this: Suppose the
planet could be divided into a million

these parts brought to New York and
weighed. We could easily find its
weight in pounds or tons. Then null
tiply this by a million million million,
and we shall have a weight Of the plan.
