IN THE ARSENAL

PITTSBCRG, Pa. January ga murder
trial, the outcome of which will establish
an important precedent in legal and military
circles was called here today In the GRIM
inal branch Of court. Lieut.. Ralph W.
Drury and Private John Dowd Of the 9th
United States Infantry were placed on trial
charged with the murder of William Crow
ley. eighteen years old, who. on September
10. 1903. was Killed near the United States
arsenal by Private Dowd, acting under In
structions from Lieut.. Drury
Crowley and a number of other boys are
said to have been caught stealing inside
the arsenal grounds. were pursued by SOL
diers and Crowley was shot after he had
gotten a considerable distance outside the
arsenal limits.
Unique Legal Question.
The question at issue is
HAS a United States soldier the author
ity to kill man outside of government
property who is suspected of a crime with
in government property? "
Ever since the killing of Crowley the case
has been discussed by legal and military
experts all over the country. Many main
tain that as the alleged cyime of Crowleys
was committed within government property
the soldiers were justified in pursuing the
man as they did.
Before he died, however. Crowley made a
statement in which he denied he was inside
the arsenal, but claimed instead that he
was sitting on a doorstep, became ira 49,
ened at the sight of the onrushing soldiers
and ran. He said he heard a command to
halt, that he did halt, but was instantly
shot.
Clash Between Authorities.
For days following the shooting the civil
and military authorities had frequent
clashes The police officials and coroner
insisted that as the shooting occurred out
side the government property the prisoner
belonged to them. Lieut.. Drury took a
different view of the matter, however, and
the civil authorities dared not force their
demands by entering the arsenal. The case
was finally taken to the United States Su-
preme Court. where 1t was decided to turn
the men over to the civil authorities and
put an end to the question for all time.
Lieut., Drury and Private Dowd surren-
dered and were later released in the sum of
$1,000 bail.
The prisoners are being defended by the
government, and United States District At
torney Dunkle is their counsel. The COM
monwealth is represented by District At
torney Harry Goehring.
When court opened large representation
of military and attorneys was in evidence.

SAVED FROM GRAVE
MAN, APPARENTLY DEAD, RE-
STORED AFTER HARD WORK.

NEW YORK, January 2s.-That the
Rev. William Randolph, pastor of the
Reformed Church at West Nyack, N. Y,
is alive today he owes to the persistence
of physician and three nurses who re-
fused to consider his case hopeless after
he had actually stopped breathing and
when to all appearances he was dead
DIR. Louis Bradford Couch of Nyack is
the physician who snatched Mr.. Randolph
from the brink of the grave. Through
gratitude the minister has made the facts
public. Mr.. Randolph had been suffering
from grip. headache and neuralgia for
weeks. He was attended by DIR. Couch,
but before he had fully recovered he
preached and again contracted a cold,
which resulted in a high fever with
temperature of 106. 1t finally developed
into severe double pleuro-pneumonia
After he had been i'll week the minis
ters heart began to fail. Simultaneous in
jections Of strychnine and whisky were
tried with some result. DIR. Couch warned
the nurses. Mrs. Sweeney and Messrs.
Haring and Nickerson. to notify him at
once of any change in the patients con-
dition.
Breath Leaves Body.
At 2 o'clock in the morning on January
20 the physician received word over the
telephone that the clergyman's heart was
failing. He drove at post haste three
miles to his patients home. While the
physician was preparing to stay the flag
ging heart Of the unconscious man Mr..
Randolph suddenly stopped breathing
His tongue fell back, closing the CLOTHS,
and there was every evidence that life
was extinct.
Then the doctor and the nurses began a.
fight to restore the clergyman to life that
continued for nine hours. With forceps
DR.. Couch drew back the tongue. and,
while nurse held it to prevent suffoca-
ton. he proceeded to Induce artificial
respiration. This he finally delegated to
another nurse and himself commenced to
inject strychnine. brandy and digitalis.
The respiratory efforts were continued
for an hour before the physician could
detect the faintest sign OF life. Finally
DIR. Couch was rewarded with a slight
futter Of his patients pulse.
All the Windows IN the roQm had been
thrown open. and the doctor and hurses
worked in their overcoats. At various
times DR. Couch tested the cornea of the
mans eyes with his finger tips but there
was no response. When nine hours had
elapsed, during which the. doctor and
nurses worked constantly. the sick man
commenced to breathe regularly and
naturally.
The Rev. Mr.. Randolph regards his res
cue from death as nothing short of mirac-
ulous.

GEN. WOODS HORSE BARRED.
Livestock From Philippines Has the
Surra Bacillus

Special precautions are being taken by
the Department of Agriculture against the
Introduction of the surra bacillus in i've
stock from the Philippines. The bacillus
produces a sort OF malarial fever In horses,
and is transmitted by flies principally. 1t
is held by the department that even a
clean bill of health for the animal at the
port of departure is not sufficient precau-
tion against the disease. as the animal may
be infected by flies after going on ship
board. The department has recently turned

ment the right to appeal in certain criminal
cases and authorized a subcommittee con-
sisting of Senators Nelson. Knox. Spooner
and Pettus to perfect the measure and re-

last session, but in form that was said to
be susceptible to question as to its con-
stitutionality. and it is that fault the sub

This consists largely In teaching
practice and review which one does
not get elsewhere.
There Is nothing In any line of bust
ness or occupation more beneficial
than experience.
A high school course furnishes the
requirements for entrance to college
and universities. Besides helping peo-
pie In carrying on business, or in
teaching. or preparing for college. b
high school course also furnishes
much general knowledge which every
one should have.
All are not interested In the same
affairs. for this reason there are sew
eral courses following up different
lines. Many of the same studies, how
ever, are included In each course.
These are English. mathematics and
other subjects which ought to inter-
est everybody. and they do to a GER
tain extent. although they may not
be aware of IL.
A college course is a stepping-stone
to many professions of which the
graduate may make a choice. Any
of them may be attained by a year or
two Of special study In a university
Those who have secured their pass
ing rank by hard study are we'll fitted
for positions of honor and dignity.
An education may be compared to
an endowment policy. The time,
money, and self-denial used in early
life may represent the premium. while
the result In both cases in after years
is usually happiness. The educated
man besides being fitted for business
and profession has a store Of knowl-
edge which is Of inestimable value in
common affairs. Although he forgets
much of the knowledge he has gained.
vet the more important part remains.
These combine to expand the think
ing powers, thus enabling one to
search out solutions to the many
questions which may arise and to ex-
press his thoughts in proper words.
Considering the great and increas.
ing assistance which the town, state
and national government are furnish
ing to boys and girls. 1t seems that
everyone in good health ought to at
tend school long enough to secure at
least a beneficial education.

On the other hand, IL We are not well

obtain good position. Strive there
fore, young friends. to get the very
best education possible. We have only
short time to go to school, and then
We are called to go forth into the
world. Let us start not forward in
life with the idea Of becoming mere
seekers Of pleasure. Sportive butter
flies seeking for gaudy flowers. Let
US remember that the lawful objects
of human efforts are but means to
higher and nobler ends. Let us think
not simply of this world. Let us
think what We must do to enter and
enjoy life beyond. This world is but
the vestibule Of an immortal life.
Every action Of our lives touches on
some chord which shall vibrate in
eternity.
Let us labor to accomplish a work
which shall remain unchanged when
time has withered the garlands of
youth and monuments have crumbled
to ashes.

MODELS.
Stanley T. Bennett.

In all the mechanical arts We find
the model the first and by far the
most important point to be consider
ed.
The model must be of such a struc-
ture that IL is the nearest approach to
perfection of any thing that human
craft and handiwork can accom-
plish.
A hundred years ago Great Britain
excelled all the countries of the globe
in her mechanical arts. But today
as all the great expositions have
shown. the United States leads them
all in her labor saving machines, her
fine yachts and steam vessels. her
architecture and her automobiles. The
European nations are growing to
recognize this more and more and the
output is steadily increasing. But
how has the United States come to
such prominence in these arts? Sim
ply by getting down at the very core
of the matter, the model. She has
corrected her models until 1t seems
that there is no chance for further
improvement. But, as the future
will probably reveal, we have not yet
reached perfection; there is still
something to which we have not at
tanned
AS In the mechanical, so In the fine
arts, We find the model the keynote
OF greatness. No true sculptor,
painter, or orator, begins to work his
particular art until his model has
been brought to an excellence beyond
improvement.
The ancient Greeks worked out
their images by the finest specimens
of human life as models, and the
Greeks spent much time in perfect
ing their bodies, both by exercise and
temperance. This Is the reason for
the high place which Greecian sculp-
ture takes today. Their models
were nearly perfect. They lived
them in their own lives.
Towering high above the models OF
the mechanical and fine arts stand
the models Of character. AS In the
arts so in character. there is a vast
contrast between the right and the
wrong model. but in the finished ar
ticle whether 1t be OF the arts or of
character, the contrast is far more
vast.
In the soul of every person are two
contending forces. One Is fighting
for good and the other for evil. Our
future depends upon the force which
VIC ioiioW duu allow 10 Tuie In our
hearts.
Two young men once left the same
town for the city. Both held high
hopes for the future. Both were go
Ing to make their mark.
One OF the young men became ac-
quainted with dashing young fell
low somewhat older than himself. He
watched the young fellow and did
as he did. He followed him to the
saloon and took his first glass OF
liquor. Soon the young man found
himself In the lowest depths OF de-
bauchery and vice. He took the
wrong model.
The other young man took for an
associate a young fellow who went
to church, kept in good company, and
had no bad habits. The young man
has now a good position and Is do
Ing well. He gives the credit OF his
success to the young fellow he fol-
lowed years ago. This young man
took the model all should follow.
Perhaps you will ask how men like

Washington and Lincoln found men

hves OF great men. There are also
many admirable models to be taken
from the Bible. Its pages are crowded
with the lives of the noblest charac-
ter: true models of greatness. kind
ness and faithfulness.
But by far our highest reason for
following vorthy models Is that we
too may become models. Others may
be about to follow In our footsteps.
what a responsibility rests upon US.
Can we be too careful to live lives
worthy OF imitation? Should we not
follow perfect model ourselves, and
then let our own lights shine.
1t Is true that the evil a man does
lives after him. 1t Is also true that
the lives likewise. The recollection of
mans good qualities remains
long after his bad ones are forgotten
Inc example we are to set before the
world is the greatest responsibility
GOD has given US. How shall we use
IL! Let us make 1t blessing and not
curse TO humanity. 1t Is the only
.hing tnat will give true happiness
In the future
Ii will not matter how well we have
succeeded in business. It will not
matter how much property we have
accumulated. when we come near to
the end OF life's journey. But IL we
have followed the right model we
shall have the satisfaction of knowing
that We have not lived in vain. We
shall know that our influence is still
going on. that IL will go on to Eternity.
How much the future depends upon
the acts Of the present. II we sow
wild oats to-day We shall reap the
same tomorrow. Therefore let us
make our lives monuments of true
manhood. Let us make them as the
sculptor makes his model: the near
est approach to perfection Of anything
that can be accomplished. Then,
from the models of the poet, Let us
steal away. gently and lovingly only
remembered by what we have DONE"

In Yeddo there was terror worse
than death. Her 1,25O,0OO souls knew
the fear of supernatural things. With
alarmed faces the people thronged to
the shrines to pray. They hastily
packed their valuables to send off to
the houses of distant friends, or to
bury. In the southern suburbs, thou
sands of homes were emptied of their
contents and of the sick and aged.

Commodore Perry. had prepared
carefully for this visit. He had read
much about Japan; he knew what its
resources were, so far as they were
known at all, by foreigners; he knew
their quaint customs and the value
they set upon ceremony. Therefore
he was determined to out Chesterfield
the Japanese themselves.

When the representative of the Sho-

with him, he was received by Lieut.,
Contee as the commodore's represen-
tative. The commodore himself could
not be seen. In spite of all the willy
oriental could do, the American am
bassador remained aloof, and i'm
pressed the Japanese official nightly
as a great man by this very exclusive
ness.
When seeking trade, the Dutch had
been willing to sink dignity and to
