TWO ABES WITH
TAINTED MONEY

Abe Hummel was a professional
rogue lawyer of New York notorious
for his sickness. Finally he got care
less and slid into prison on the to-
pObean slide he had made. He tried
very hard to save himself, but could
not, for the persons in whose behalf
IL mad committed legal rogueriess
could not help him, and would not if
they could.
The moral aspects of Abe HummeE
and his clients, and Abe Ruef and his
clients are quite similar. The differ
ence was that one was a white Way
lawyer and the other was a lawyer of
corrupt politics.
Hummers game was fully known in
New York Ruef's game. was notori-
Gus in Frisco.
Both were hailed as heroes by the
element of American society that adj
mires successful rascality. And both
were tolerated until. in Abe Hummel'ss
case. ne bumped into peculiar prose-
cutor of the name of William Traverss
Jerome and, in Abe Ruefs case his
Labor party friends interfered with
the rebuilding of san Francisco. While-
much of Hummefs clientele was ras--
cally yet some who hired him to do
their dirty work were nominally hon
est persons who found that dirty con-
ditions required dirty work.
And, in the case of Ruef certain
gentlemen of high position did the
same. They had to get certain fran
chises. corrupt gang was in possess
sion of the city government. The
franchises had to be bought. And SO
they bought them through Ruef, who
was the counsel and brains of the
gang. These gentlemen regarded IL as
case OF necessity for which they
were not responsible and they felt
| that they had not done a crime.
But the law does not recognize that
point of view. And So when the
| Spreckles boosters found that the
gang had to be crushed or the city
would be crushed, the boosters hired
man hunters to do the work, the law
that was invoked against Ruef an0'
his mayor pal. Schmitz, struck, also,
| the high gentlemen who had used
them and paid their price.
Ruef expected the high gentlemen
to come to his rescue. But they look
ed upon him as verm n and did not
help him. And he sauealed. And so
the fine gentlemen who used the YER
min now find themselves impaled ON
the law with the vermin they de-
spised.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE PRACTICAL.
A Religion the Truth of Which Is
Demonstratable,

DemonStratable.
CFrom Christian Science Not a
Theory, but Fact" by Judge Will
am G. Ewing in Success Magazine.):
Here appears the practically of
the religion of Jesus-God a very
present help in trouble. Christian
Scientists believe in the literal verify
of this statement in their experience
tina unfaltering reliance Upon God for
their daily needs brings His daily
help, and therefore they find cheer in
their religion, smile in apparent gloom
and await the morrow with no fore
bodngs of evil.
ut must be that a religion that is
good for anything is good for every
in any way, It makes him a better
man in every way. From what has
gone before 1t may easily he gathered
that the Christian Science belief Is
that the mission Of Jesus to the world
was bring redemption to men; COM
plete redemption as certainly from
sickness. sorrow and signing as from
sin; and all for the glory OF God
Wherefore, whatever brings peace,
contentment, health, hope to mankind
is an inspiration of good. is of the es-
sence, the soul, any religious belief
that does not wipe away tears, that
does not render us more happy more
free. more lovable and loving, however
redolent with the odor of antiquity, is
not of the Christ, hath no CLEAN of
the love of God in it.
Each phase of religious belief is
necessarily based upon the concept of
God that Is held by the advocates Of
that belief. The great central fact
underlying and everything the Chris
tan Scientists belief is the infinite
goodness, wisdom, power, mercy, all
ness of God: hence their trust their
complete reliance upon this all-power.
Still. their belief is not wholly the re-
suit Of mere theory, Is not entirely the
product of metaphysical or other rea-
soning. but is the necessary sequence
Of demonstration, the incontestable
answer to human doubt that J&us
made to the questioning John: "The
blind see the lame walk"
Il, myself for long years, was the
bearer Of many Ills and was driven, by
them, according to human Judgment,
based on human experience into the
very shadow Of death In this de-
plorable condition | was in a strange
city in the Southland, separated from
home and all its tender ties alone,
helpless and hopeless. Just at the
breaking point, a loving friend came
thousand miles to tell me of Mrs.
Eddy's great discovery, namely, the
modus whereby the power of God to
heal the ills of men can, today, be as
directly and certainly summoned as 1t
was 1900 years ago. I was taken to
Christian Science practitioner, and
from thence, within one week went to
my home a we'll man, and for nearly
% years, relying wholly upon Chris
tan Science, have remained well.

DRY FARMING

M. l. Church, register of the state
land department has returned from
Haley, where a sale of state school
land was held Saturday, says the
Boise Statesman. Two and a half
sections were disposed of at the ap-
praised value of $40 and $11. The
lands are not under irrigation, and
the new owners will experiment with
dry farming. Two steam plows have
been purchased and no time will be
lost in breaking up the land.
"Of the persons who applied for the
land. only one was not present at the
SALE" said Mr.. Church yesterday.
considerable more land would have
been sold had 1t not been that num-
Der of applications were made out

for state lands that were not for sale

which lands were to be sold. How

NEW YORK, June 3.--Mrs. Will
lam Thaw and Evelyn Nesbit Thaw

sumptuous manner a house on Parke
avenue near F'ifty-ninth street. The
furniture. bric-a- brac, rugs and other

the elder and the younger Mrs. Thaw

although, for the sake of Harry Thaw
they would remain on friendly terms
