captain of industry. No longer is he inspired with
the falacious idea that riches means everything
worthy Of alteration, nor does he think that money
will purchase the prompt obeisance of others at a
mere nod of his head. It is difficult to understand
what wrought this wonderful change in his life; it
may have been the unmerciful criticism his methods
has received. and it may be that he, has been CON
verted.
Few persons are willing to accept Mr. Rockefel-
ers advice at it's current value they think his tru
sms not in keeping with the ideals he has lived
up all his life No doubt if this remarkably rich
had his life to live again, 1T would be diff
ferent from what It is. Instead of merely giving
good advice, he would endeavor to be all that
honest gentleman should be.

W7lIpDI16 Wife BeUterS.

AT W1LKEsBARRE, Pa, there is magistrate who
has no love for that class of persons who get drunk
and beat their wives Recently when wife beater
was brought before him and he had listened to the
pitiful story of the abused woman, this magistrate
walked from the BENCH seized the culprt led him to
the street and then administered thrashing that
the wife beater will not forget for many day. The
proceedings were tre irregular but the people who
witnessed the incident and heard the wifes griev-
ances. Justify cheered the judge as he applied the
strap to the man.
In cases of this kind where husbands are drunk
ards and compel their wives to take in washing, the
divorce laws should be elastic as they are for in
compatibility of temperament. The man who robs
his wife of the small pittance she earns Washing is
not deserving of much sympathy.

Prison SySten1 WrONS.

PT1SON system wrong.
In recent interview Mrs. Florence Maybrick,
the woman who spent fifteen years in English
prison. says that the entire prison system of the world
is wrong We quote in part: Nov, imprisonment is
to great extent like death. A human being put
into prison for term of years undergoes vast
transformation. He loses his name and his reputa-
ton and becomes number; he loses his place in the
world; be loses his power of free action; he loses
everything that makes him an individual except his
soul"
Mrs Maybrick believes that the state should
center its endeavors saving the soul of the prison
er. For several years this woman has been writing
and discussing the prison problem, and naturally she
has exhausted the subject. Her present theme has
to do with something that is almost impractical.
STILL almost every prison in the country has spiritual
advisers and in several of the states they have laws
permitting any clergyman to visit the prison and ad
minister advice to those who may belong to other
denominations. Mrs. Maybrick makes the same er
ror that good many other well-meaning persons
make, namely, that because man is in prison, it
necessarily follows that he is goddess man.
On the other hand, if all prisoners are goddess
persons, and no doubt many of them are, does this
speak we'll of the world beyond the prison walls? It
is our sincere belief that per capita, there are as
many professed Christians in prison as there on
the outside The fourteenth biennial report of this
institution ending July 81, 1906 shows that there
were $50 prisoners OF this number only SO were
nonreligious. Surely this does not indicate that
prisoners heathens IF other prisons turnout the
country can show similar figures it is evident that
Mrs Maybrick is not as conversant with the penal
situation in this country as she is with that of
England's

Sensational Reading.
ONE of the popular monthly periodicals is now
publishing in serial form the disgusting confession
of 81. Orchard, the man whose crimes have shocked
the civilized world In printing this narrowing story
the magazine in question is catering to the most vi
cous sort of sensationasm; for it is radical depar
ture from the high standard still being maintained
by the better class of magazines. The biography of
this heartless fend good purpose worthy
of mention. On the contrary, it portrays type of
villain of whom the less one knows about the better
ones opinion of his fellowcreatures will be- There
may be demand for such wild eyed, thrill producing
stories by the readers of magazines, but this is the
first time any of them dared to go to this extreme
The American magazines, with few exceptions,
have always been noted for the wide variety of their
topics but generally they have kept their pages clean
from the sordid details Of fes shifting current
Heretofore this has solely been the province of the
newspapers; they reflected the vicious and frivolous
happenings of every. day life; and, matter how bad
the story, they have endeavored to portray life de-
void of it's externals. No doubt many magazine
readers will protest against the innovation for it is
only rehashing debasing subject of which the pub
lie is heartily weary.
Of course one does not expect a magazine to
confne it's stories exclusively to describing the
mantle adventures of Percy and the Princess to
print crop reports; but dare say that the average
reader wishes his favorte periodical to be the symbol
of the culture of the age in which he lives The
sensational kind altogether too numerous without
adding to the worlds Affections. A good many per-
say that foreign magazines simply impossible
because of dry rot but this kind Of reading is
preferable than to spread broadcast the secrets of
the dissecting room, the confession of some de-
generate.

The JUru.

me Jury.
SINCE the Haywood trial and AGO uittal has passed
into the history of yesterday, many comments have
been made anent the outcome. Very nearly all seem
to think that the verdict just and that the evil
dence deplorably insufficient to warrant convic.
ton. The judges charge to the jury is considered
by competent lawyers to be model for fairness and
mpartality atho the jurors seemed to interpret it's
meaning favoring the defense. This misunder-
standing the part of the jurors has called forth
the comment that it would be good policy to abolish
the jury and place it's functions in the hands of
judges.
This proposition is that harks back many
years. As yet it has found few ardent supporters,
men who honestly believe that the change would
prove satisfactory as the present system Men on
the bench, matter how honorable they may be,
are just susceptible to forming opinion as any
one. They are human, therefore not beyond the pale
of nfaibity. It is true that their legal experience
qualities them to render juster verdict, according
to the evidence adduced, than could twelve inexpe
rienced men. But most persons would rather be
tried by jury believing that time has made it one
of the most cherished institutions our civilization
has inherited This trial has in no way demon
strated any weakness in the jury SYSTEM it has rath
strengthened the belief that it is indispensable in
cases of this kind.
