CRIMINAL TERM OF THE SU-
 PERIOR COURT OPENED.

 Court Cases.
 The criminal term of the superior court opened yesterday morning before Judge Ralph Wheeler, and thirty-nine prisoners were brought down from the jail and put to plea. Court was called ito order at 10 o'clock, and the jury impanelled to try the cases excused un- til afternoon because of the large num- ber of pleas to be taken. The jury panel is as follows: From New Haven, George H. Cook, Richard M. Sheriden, Robert A. Hollinger, Henry W. San ford, Edward A. Rourke; from Chesh- ire, Ernest G. Alger Edwin A. Todd, Julius Moss; from Derby, Richard F. Cudahy, Edwin Hallock, George H. Crook; from East Haven, James H. Hawkins, Wellington Ire; from Ham, den, Friend J. Peck, Leonard Munson, William H. Bray; from Madison, Sam uel c. Champion, D Eugene Smith.
 Following the excusing of the jury, prayer was offered by the Rev. E. C., Tullar of the East Pearl Street M. E. church, after which the prisoners were immediately put to plea. There are al- together sixty-five cases on the docket for this term, the other twenty-six be- ing out on bail. Among the latter are Mortimer J. Smith and F. E. Lewis, the former bookkeepers at the Benton- Armstrong box factory, charged with the embezzlement of about $6,0OO of that firms funds. Lewis was in court and ready to plea, but was deferred until later. The DeLucias, charged with murder, were not brought down as it was certain their case could not be taken up. Both pleaded not guilty at the last term of court
 A remarkable incident in the pleas taken at the morning session was that about one-half of the prisoners were minors. The offenses charged against them were mainly theft or burglary, and the average age was about seven teen years. Very few of the prison CTS were represented by counsel, and in almost every case the court was oblig- ed to assign an attorney to look after them, and the bill to the state in con- sequence for this, term will be a large one

MORE ROOM NEEDED.
SCHOOL BUILDINGSINADEOUATE
 FOR CITES NEEDS.

Committee From school Board Ex- plain Matters to Board of Finance
 Congestion in Quinnipiac District Annual Increase in School PopuIa-
 tien.
 That the city of New Haven will be obliged in the near future to take some definite measures to relieve the congest- ed condition in it's public school build ings was made quite evident at the reg ular meeting of the board of finance held in the city hall office last evening. Mayor Studley presided at the meeting and a committee from the board of ed- ucation consisting of Colonel I. M. Ull- man and Dr. H. A. Spank appeared before the finance board to explain the conditions which confront the board of education in the matter of supplying sufficient number of school rooms to 0Ceb tid III lilC poDllC SIllOOlo in the city. Colonel Ullman said that Superintendent Beede and most educa- tors are agreed that forty or fifty chill dren are all that one teacher can care for with good results. At the present time there are many more children than this in some of the rooms, making the teachers work unreasonably hard and the scholarship average lower than ought to be the case. Added to this dis advantage is the fact that the school population of New Haven is increas- ing at the rate Of about 700 pupils each year. To meet this annual increase the committee explained will require that eighteen new school rooms be built each year More than this num- Der ought to be constructed to better existing crowded conditions.
 The worst conditions at the present time exist in the Quinnlpiac district Fifyt-slx thousand dollars is needed at once to increase the seating capacity of the schools enough to meet present de- mands. Webster and Zunder districts are also very crowded, and the number of children of school age is increasing more rapidly, here than in the other school districts
 The committee explained that a num- Der of the present school buildings had been constructed with view of future enlargement. and additions could thus be made at comparatively low expense. On the other hand it wold be very de- sirable if the city could adopt a sys- tematized policy of erecting at least one new school building each year
 There was discussion as to the best was of obtaining land for the erection of school buildings. The policy In the past has been to purchase whatever land was desirable and could be had at a reasonable price, Several members of the board were of the opinion that better locations could be secured by condemning whatever land the board thought best fitted for it's needs.
 The board of education has not suf- ficient funds left to go ahead with the work of enlarging the school capacity and an additional appropriation by the board of finance will be necessary if the conditions are to be remedied. The jcard of finance asked for time to talk the matter over by themselves and the matter will come before future meet ing for decision.
 The latter part of the meeting was given up to the regular routine work of Az. lFLa aI

were surprised to find that he could
write so simply and sanely of boyhood
ana rural life. The book reflected the
softer element in the Darrow makeup.
barrow was educated in the public
schools, read law very early and was
admitted to the bar before he reached
his nineteenth birthday. He practiced
~ the rural districts for few years
and then turned up in Chicago After
the raw young lawyer got his bearings
In the raw young city he made rapid
Roadway. 1t was discovered that he
knew law to the limit Accordingly he
was appointed assistant corporation
counsel
While barrow was still an unknown
quantity he met Governor John p.
Altgeld. Altgeld was a radical think
er, a student Of sociology. He took a
liking to young barrow, probably be-
cause their minds ran In the same
channel in that respect. The two men
formed a partnership in law practice
which lasted until Altgeld's sudden
death. 1t will be recalled that the ex-
governor was stricken on the platform
while delivering. speech in defense
of human rights. Darrow delivered an
address over the body of Governor
Altgeld which for simple eloquence and
feeling has been compared to the fa-
nous speech of Robert G. Ingersoll at
the grave of his brother.

Gentle Breed of Anarchist.

Mr.. Darrow's book, Resist Not Evil"
was published four years ago. It show
ed the author to be disciple of Count
Tolstoi, but as a logician and cold
Feasoner, bulwarked by a mind OF Sc
we're legal training, he went even far
Their than Tolstoi. Mr.. barrow has
been described as a socialist. He may
be one, though Just what a socialist is
or what ideas a man must possess to
be socialist Is open to debate His
book showed conclusively that he is
an anarchist. But speak 1t softly.
There are two kinds Of anarchists
One Of them travels around occasion
ally to kill king or other ruler. The
other kind is a gentle, humane, tender
hearted, unseldsh, nonresisting ideal
iSt like Leo TolstOi or the late Ernest
Crosby or Clarence barrow. This kind
of anarchist never harms a kitten,
much less king. This gentle breed
Of anarchist dreams golden dreams.
He perceives the divine spark In all
mems souls and would fan It II he
could into such fame that all the
beastliness would be burned out, leav-
ing only the Christly goodness to reign
and rule. But since he cannot thus
fan the spark into purging flame he
sits down and writes books about
what ought to be and might be If we
were different and may be when we
shall have evoluted sufficiently.
RESIST Not EVIL is Clarence Oar
row, the philosopher. In this book he
seeks to prove that governments are
not necessary for the well being Of
mankind The origin and evolution Of
ehe political state. he says, show that
4 was born in aggression. as It is
maintained purely by force-SoldIers
and policemen to do the bidding Of
pulers. "Nor do the people govern
themselves in democracies more than
ID any other lands" says Mr.. Darr0w.
They do not even choose their rulers.
These rulers choose themselves and By
force and cunning and intrigue arrive
Al the same results that their print
dive ancestor reached with the aid OF a
dub"
Mr.. barrow holds that by no meth
cd of reasoning can II be shown that
the injustice Of killing one man is re-
txieved by the execution OF another.
Thus his doctrine Of nonresistance 70

real life he is a law abiding citizen.
But even should he apply his theories
70 actual life he would be the direct
opposite of the SO called anarchist who
manufactures a bomb and blows up
rulers. Mr.. Darrow's creed is non
resistance to evil.
1t IL written In Scriptures, Resist
not evil, but Whosoever shall smite thee
on thy right cheek, turn to him the
other also" Mr.. Darrow wrote book
On that text In that book he ex-
pressed convictions and conclusions
which 60 far toward explaining why
he prefers to appear in the courts in
the interest Of workers rather than in
the interest OF corporations that en-
Dloy workers. Early in his career Mr.,
Darrow was a corporation attorney.
He served as counsel for the North
western railway. But that was only
en- incident In his more than thirty
ears Of practice. Most o. his legal
work has been as counsel In cases
against monopOlies and trusts.
Clarence barrow was born fifty
years ago In Kinsman. o. About two
years ago he astonished his friends
In Chicago, where he lives, by pub
fishing a book entitled Pennington,
which was a story OF boy life In
small country town. 1t was largely
photographed and was an intimate

Stepfather of Skyscrapers.

Incidentally barrow may be called
the stepfather of the modern sky
scraper building 1t is related that he
and Altgeld first met at a club and
walked down the street together. Gov
ernor Altgeld remarked that he was
looking for suit Of offices, but could
find none that pleased his fancy.
"Why don't you build, GOVERNOR
suggested Darrow.
The young attorney then Informed
the governor that a friend Of his had
invented a method Of constructing
buildings by putting a steel skeleton
inside. Governor Altgeld sent for the
architect who advanced this bold in
novation. He was so impressed that
he had the Montauk building con-
structed on that principle, and thus
the first modern steel skyscraper came
into being.
Clarence DaTrow won some measure
Of national repute as counsel for Eu-
gene Y. Debs IN the great strike Of the
American Railway union in the early
nineties. During the following ten
years he was an advocate on the side
of labor in many labor injunction
cases.
In 1902 and 1903 he was chief cOun-
sci for the anthracite miners at scran-
ton and Philadelphia in the coal strike

BY RoBERTUs LOVE.

AW, like politics. makes strange
bedfellows. Witness the spec
tacle of Clarence s. Darrow at
Boise, Ida. AS chief counsel for
wv. d. Haywood, charged with the
murder Of Ex-Governor Frank Steunen-
berg, Mr.. barrow is associated with
several lawyers of the conventional
kind. These are hard headed, practical
attorneys who have no fine haired the
cries about anything in particular.
They believe and act with what may
be called the generality of men.
Darrow, ON the other hand, is a
dreamer, an idealist, a theorist, a
weaver Of Utopias. Any man Of his
associate counsel would be glad to pick
up a gun and go out and shoot duck
bear, just as any man of them
|, J delight in devouring savory
,sefsteak or hot bird. But barrow
will not kill beast or bird, nor will he
eat flesh killed by others. He holds
that killing Is wrong, whether the vic
tim be man or beast or bird. To be
consistent with this belief he is a
strict vegetarian.
Knows Law and How to Practice.
4 Yet with all his theories Mr.. barrow
has a practical side. He knows law,
and he knows how to practice law,
though theoretically he is opposed to
all man made aw-theoretically. re-

ernor Altgeld had in molding the ca
reer and shaping the convictions Of
barrow is not a matter of mathemat-
ical calculation. but it is not to be
doubted that the influence OF the older
man was considerable.

Gives Generously to Charity.

1t is said that Mr.. barrow gives
away in charity at least a fifth OF his
income. He frequently handles the
case Of poor person for nothing, but
It is his invariable rule to make a cor
poration or any well to do firm or indi-
vidual pay handsomely for his legal
services.
Somebody has remarked that clothes
make the man. That depends on the
man concerned. When barrow gets
up to speak he might cut sorry flg-
ure with a deaf person, but after he
warns up to his topic nobody remem-
bers his cheap suit and lis somewhat
ungainly figure. He begins deliberate
" and slowly, but as he gets deeper
into the argument his language flows
more rapidly until at the peroratiOn II
Is a tumult Of eloquence and convinc-
ing logic When Darrow summed up
the case of the anthracite mine work
ers before the strike commission he
spoke for two court days, apparently
without fatigue, and he used no notes.
AS a speaker barrow employs wit,
humor, sarcasm, invective and steel
cold logic with equal facility. AS a
| sample of his sarcastic humor this
brief extract from his address to the
jury in presenting Haywood's case may
serve. Darrow was referring to the
story Orchard had told on the stand:

Beloved by His Fellow Men.

Mr. Darrow is not handsome man.
One Of his friends has said: "As a boy
I used to think Lincoln's face was the
hOmeliest 1 had ever seen-the home
lest and the kindest Then twenty
years ago, when first met Darrow, /
knew that had seen at last as home
" face as Lincoln's and one not less
kindly nor less masterful. II you have
heard Darrow and read his books and
caught glimpse of the real man that
walks around in his shape 1t may be
that you will not think my comparison
extravagant. / think there is no man
In this country today more genuinely
loved by his fellowmen than Clarence
barrow. Men love Darrow because he
loves men,"
AS to Mr.. Darrow's personal APP
pearance another acquaintance re-
marks: HE is far from natty. His
clothes are decidedly of the hand-me-
down variety, his shoes are seldom
polished, and when he looks for his hat
on a rack he can easily pick 1t out, for
1t is the one that has not been brush

arbitration, appearing before the com
mission appointed by President ROose-
Yelt One Of his hardest fights was IN
the litigation against the gas trust
In Chicago. When Judge Dunno was
elected mayor Mr.. barrow was en-
ployed to conduct the litigation in
connection with the proposed acquisi-
tion by the city of the street car lines.
barrow was elected to the Illinois leg
tslature In 1902, being the only pro-
nounced municipal ownership man In
that body.
