IGNORANCE IS NO DEFENSE

Is ignorance or utter disregard the lives Of individuals

Furh president Of the Seattle Electric company ignores the
OF the Liverpool fender which has proved 20 be the
most effective in in the world Mr. Furh's knowledge
does reach beyond Kansas City His defense Of
the detective fender here is that good the
in in Kansas City
While expressing his willingness to equip his with
any fender which should proved be better Mr. Fuh in
the same breath declares in the
equal Of any tenders made.
Either actual intentional ignorance evident in Mir
Furihs statements Can be possible that a in his
sponsbe position does read the literature pertaining 60
street railway equipment and management
Can il be possible that he is ignorant Of current facts

Can be possible that he is ignorant OF the existence Of
the Liverpool fender which has for SIX years and
which has many lives the OF London Liver

!, hardly possible that such ignorance exist
high places but is charitable Mr. Furth to believe
that ignorance his part exist than believe
capable Of deliberately sacrificing life and limb expenses
in equipping his lines.
The responsible officials Of street railways in Seattle and
other American cities have bloody record for
record OF successive violent and unnecessary deaths which III
the pages Of the coroner books Most OF the deaths which
this avodabe could be avoided BY proper
equipment and proper the part Of the company.
II IS the habit OF traction blame the large death
and accident employees but
the records of roads which equipped with proper safety
devices prove the alacy OF their claim proves that high
cdent and death due poor equipment

Thus in London where the Liverpool fender is in general
use but 10 people killed during the of year The
fender absolutely prevented anyone getting wheels
and both the death and injury reduced the
imum. In Seattle during similar period is deaths resulted
from street accidents OF them avodabc IL proper
equipment used.
Those deaths stand public indictment against the
responsible officials Of the traction companies Seattle The
officials cannot shift the responsibility their employees The
deaths due 70 the failure Of the officials adopt proper
safety devices devices whose effectiveness had been proven
in the largest cities Of the world
The responsible officials Of Seattle Electric company
can plead ignorance longer They adopt effective
safety devices stand convicted Of disregard life and limb
which is criminal from all points Of view

Where FIELDING Is Buried.

The father of the English novel;
the two hundredth anniversary OF
whose birth fell the other day, lies
buried amid the cypress trees of the
English cemetery of Lisbon. Not long
after his death tomb was erected to
mark the spot-a memorial which an
English visitor in 1772 found nearly
concealed by weeds and nettles." In
1880, through the exertions OF the
then British chaplain, a large sar'
cophagus was substituted, which
about 80 years ago was repaired, and
the inscriptions, long one in Latin
on the front, and the words on the
back, "Luget Britannia gremio non
dari fovere natum." carefully re-
stored.
As he tells us in the bible in
Epain," Borrow visited and reverent-
ly kissed "the cold tomb ~. OF

lar which (this) island ever produced,

on visit to Lisbon, attempted to visit
the tomb, but could find no one to let

TALES OF HORROR
FROM THE MONTH CAROLINA
HILL COUNTRY.
Diseased Mind Of FsatricIde Wovs
for Himsef Fsrful Punlshmsnt
Sitting for Hours with
Silent Ghost.

A man named Shelton Of Cherokee
county in the mountains Of North
Carolina, a few years ago in some
drunken brawi killed his own brother.
Escaping somehow the punishment OF
the law, he was given over to the
horror of what he had done and from
his own mind wove for himself
frightful punishment He believed
and asserted as fact that every
night hair was drawn from his head
by his slain brother, coming through
the night from the unseen regions OF
the hereafter for that purpose. 1t is
q known fact that Shelton did become
bald little by little until not hair
was left; and some of his neighbors
believed in the nightly visitation OF
the dead man as firmly as the slayer
himself No explanation was offered
and no deductions we're made. That
nightly coming, the silent plucking OF
the hair, and the departure were ac.
cepted stoically as thing actually
and undoubtedly happening and part
Of the mans regular life and expert
ence. Shelton died recently after hav-
Ing allowed himself with his gro
tesquely barred head to be exhibited
In a tent through mountain hamlets
rs 1.-The Modern CAIN" and the local
newspapers recall his story.
II was another mountaineer, living
many miles from Shelton and de-
barred of any possibility Of knowing
y kall N
girl he was about to marry hat she
must reconcile herself to nightly
visit from a man he had killed. who,
he said, walked to his bedside ana
sat with him an hour after mid
night. The stout-hearted bride mar
ried in firm expectation Of the ghostly
vigil at her couch and, according to
her sworn evidence in court, ELECTED
incidentally in the trial Of another
case and in the presence OF an audi
ence of horrified, stiffened and breath
less mountain people, she was not dis
appointed She swore that regularly
every night the murdered man Kept
his tryst, and that she and her groom
lay awake and looked at him. 1t was
another man OF tnis same heiShUor
hood who committed murder and
undertook to dismember and hide the
body of his victim. He told his friend
that while he was carrying the sew
cred head in bag over his shoulder
across a certain wide him where the
broom hedge was growing in the late
autumn, the head suddenly began to
whistle tune which was favorite
with the dead man.
What morbid poet or romancer
could conceive more CHASTITY thought
than this--the severed head emitting
suddenly the whistling of a lively
tune, on bleak broom hedge hillside
IN the solitude of an autumn midnight
with the moon looking coldly down?

The Value Of q Smile.

1t is wonderful what an effect a
bright look or smile may have on one
We meet. II We only knew just how
much good 1t may do. we should al.
ways try to carry smiles about with
rs.
The little woman who goes about
the street with such bright, happy
face and CHEEKY word for all she
knows, seems to have the effect Of
sunshine, says Chicago Journal. When
she does her shopping everyone seems
to brighten and respond to her happy
greeting as naturally as q flower
opens to the sunlight.
"A little smile, look of sympathy
are things that cost nothing, and We
know from our experience how just
one may brighten whole day.
