Our birth is but a sleep and forgetting:
The soul that rises with US, our LIES star,
Hath had elsewhere fits setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire fOrgetfulness,
And not IN utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds OF glory do we come
From God, who IS our home.

TELL PUBLIC
ABOUT WRECKS
Policy of Hartman Lines for Pub.
licity Has Been Put
Into Effect.

NEW YORK, July IA policy
of informing the public of the details
of all accidents on all railroads COM
prising the Hartman system was
put into effect today by order of E..
Fl. Hartman, according to official
by the Union Pacific.
1t is stated that Mr.. Harriman has
ordered that full reports shall b.
made and promptly given to the
press concerning all accidents on the
Union Pacific systems and On the
Oregon Short Line.
1t is also announced that it has
been decided, as an experiment, to
invite outsiders of local reputation
and standing to be present and to
participate in the hearings by the
company's board of inquiry in acct
dents, making formal reports either
agreeing or .disagreeing with the
findings of the board.
The statement quotes the reports
of the interstate commerce commits
sion to the effect that over 20 per
cent. of the serious collisions on
American railways during the past
five years were due to negligence OF
trainmen and enginemen. On lines
protected by signals "a per cent. of
the collisions are, attributed by the
commission to negligence on the
part of trainmen and signal operat-
ors.
The Union Pacific also announces
that it's steel rails for next years
delivery will be made by the open
hearth process, which, it is expected,
will decidedly lessen the number OF
breakages.

ACQUITTED BY "UNWRlTTEN
LAW"

The outcome of the trial of Judge
Loving at Houston, Va, accused OF
numbering Theodore Estes, will give
some hope to Harry Thaw and his
friends when Thaw's second trial
comes on in the fall. The defense
in the Loving case was much the
same as that advanced by Thaw' S
lawyers brainistorm, produced
by the story told by girl. The two
cases are similar in some respects
and dissimilar in others.
They were alike in that the truth
or falsity of the. story alleged to
have been told, by the wife in one
case and by the daughter in the
other, was not allowed to become
part of the issue. The testimony OF
Evelyn Nesbitt Thaw that she did
tell her husband of wrongs done her
by Stanford White, and of Elizabeth
Loving that she told her father OF
being drugged and abused by Theo-
dore Estes, formed the basis of the
insanity defense in both trials. :,
The public can sympathize, with
Judge Loving, however. where it
could not with Harry Thaw. The
latter's conduct, before and after his
his marriage, was notoriously as bad
as that of his victim. His act lacked
all the qualities of a sincere avenger
of outraged virtue; it was prompted
by a base and depraved Jealousy.
judge Loving, on the other hand,
drunkard though he had been for
years, had a fathers honest and
deep affection For his daughter and
keenly felt the disgrace that had
been brought upon her. His state Of
mind was essentially different from
that of Harry Thaw.
On the broad principle that the
unwritten law forms no legal de-
tense for murder Judge Loving
should have been convicted. Yet no
one will be greatly surprised that a
Virginia jury. being appealed to on
the "sanctity Of the home" acquit-
ted him.-Spokss man-Review.

BOYS AND GIRLS ACT
AS POLICE IN IOWA
Chief Devised Unique Scheme to Pre-.
vent Premature Celebration
of Glorious Fourth

CHICAGO, June 30.-A dispatch
to the Tribune from Council Bluffs,
Iowa, says:
Chief of Police Richard has
struck upon unique scheme to pre-
vent the premature celebration OF
Independence Day by deputlzing
boys and girls to act as special po-
lice. A long list of youngsters lined
up yesterday and received appoint
ments and assignments. Each was
required to take the regular oath OF
a patrolman and the youngsters
were assigned to special districts.
The novelty of having the power OF
block has appealed greatly to the
Youngsters, who are showing their
appreciation by keeping sharp
watch on every boy who purchases
fireworks, quite to the disgust OF the
dealers.
