JOHN WILLIAM JANUARY.

John William January, convicted
several years ago of robbing a post-
office in Oklahoma, served the mai
or part of his five years sentence.
He was Il model prisoner and came
to be 'trusty." Not long before
his term expired he escaped from
prison. He went to Kansas City
and passed under the name of
Charles w. Anderson. He became
a well-to-do business man and mar
ried. Recognized by a former con-
vict, he was betrayed by him for
the reward that was; offered for his
capture. He was Carried back to
.prRoh~ immediately a petition
wascirculated askingsfor his pardon.
Already there are 3720O signatures
to The petition, and the president
2sseexpressed the opinion that Jan
uary should have his sentence COM
muted or be pardoned outright. 1t
is to be hoped that the man will be
pardoned. His life of rectitude
since the time of his escape is suffi-
cient guarantee that his punishment
has been sufficient. Surely, in his
case, the ends of justice has been
met. Even if it were not so, mercy
would pleaei eloquently for his par
don. Let the. pan be pardoncd
He is now a good citizen and is
showing himself man. That is
all the reparation he has it in his
power to make. Let him have his
liberty.

The police authorities in Savan.
nah, Ga, seem to be determined to
wipe out gambling in that city.
They have on hand about ten thorls-
and dollars worth of gambling para
phernalia of which they propose
making a bonfire. One man offered
to give thirty five hundred dollars
for it and remove it to some other
city, but the authorities refused to
sell and proposed to burn it. That
isthe best thing that could be done
with it. That is just what ought to-
be done with it. If the gambling
dens everywhere were cleared and
their contents burned it would be b
good thing for humanity. There
would be considerable dropping off
in the number of suicides-poor,
unfortunate wretches who have lost
heavily and who thus caught, put a
bullet through their own brains.
1t is said that many mothers,
wives and sisters have written the
chief of police in Savannah com
mending his fight against the
Joints" Yes, and behind each of
those letters there lies tragedy, a
history of sorrow and pain that
brings tears to the eye. If these
histories were written in full and
could be read by thoughtful people
it would produce reaction against
the nefarious business that would
make itself felt. The American
people have just here one of the
greatest dangers to civilization and
progress.

THE GAMBLING MANIA.

Few people realize the enormous
hold that the gambling spirit has
upon our people. Everywhere,
among high and low, this mania
seems to have taken firm hold.
There is doubtless something of the
spirit of adventure moving many to
go into game of chance. But the
chief motive iS the desire to get
something for nothing n desire that
Moreover. 1t Is desire that ultima
tely leads to unfortunate results. A
man may get something for nothing
now and then. But that ONLY
means that pay day is but being
postponed. 1t must come after =
time. And it will demand its own
with interest.
Recently Il young travelling man
was in a neighboring city. He
thought he saw the way tn "pick
up' twenty dollars. All he had to
do was to put up forty dollars on a
baseball game. Everyone told him
Il certain team was sure to win. The
odds We're two to one. But the
other fellow walked off with his
forty dollarS-the last dollar he had.
He had sure thing, he thought.
But he did not have a sure thing as
subsequent events proved. He was
left stranded" in a strange city
and was looking for some one that
would make him loan on a hand
some gold watch. He had to resort
to that in order that he might 90 OH
his way. Poor fellow! But then,
it may be a good investment for him
fdstls. was heard to say: That's
my lasabet." The only trouble is
that thegaevil keeps putting it into
a mans head to try again. 1t is a 7
sorry game and leads to sad exper-
fences. Besides, money thus got
ten, in case the result is favorable,
is snare and delusion. 1t has
not staying qualities. 1t is con-
stantly seeking to leak away into
the same unlawful channel through
which it came.

A meeting of the National AsSo-
citation for the Study and Preven-
ton of tuberculosis Is being held
this week in Washington. 1t is
engaged in worthy enterprise and
calculated to do much for human
ity. One of the best results of the
work done is in the matter of in
formation given to public. The
sentiment, as expressed by the
delegates, educators and representa-
tives of the workingmcn, was
unanimous that crowded rooms,
bad air and poor light were the
condition of affairs. While it was
admitted that occasional "opcn''
caSes exist, the lack of propcr
hygenic conditions in the school
room and workshop was credited
with being responsible for the de-
vclopment of tbs disease. 1t was
contcndcd that only in the most
modern buildings could the air and
light be said to be ap, oximatelv
satisfactory.
