 CAN'T PUNISH SUICIDE.
 It is Therfore Hard to Punish an At- tempt at Suicide.
 The way of the man who commits or attempts to commit suicide has pre- sumably been hard; but his way as a transgressor is not always made harder by the aw.
 In the case of a, successful suicide there is an insuperable difficulty in the American Law Review, the impossi- bflity of pushing suicide itself may | prevent punishment for an unsuceess- ful attempt.
 This is in Maine, as the result of a statute providing for the punishment of attempt to commit crime, which fixes the punishment as one-half of that for the crime itself. There is no punishment possible for the crime, there is held to be none for the attempt. ] " The Maine statutes contain provis-
 ion that where no punishment is pro-

 You'll have no more bad taste in your mouth or bad breath, either from drink ing. eating or smoking. Other people will notice your bad breath quicker than you will yourself. Make your breath pure, fresh and sweet, 80 when you talk to others you won't disgust them. Just one or two Stuart Charcoal Lozenges will make your breath sweet, and makes you feel better all over for 1t, You can eat all the onions and odorous foods you want, and no one can tell the difference.
 Besides, charcoal is the best laxative known. You can take whole boxful and no harm will result. It is won- derfully easy regulator.
 And then, too, 1t filters your blood every particle of poison or impurity In your blood Is destroyed, and you begin to notice the difference in your face first thing-your clear complexion.

DISCRIMINATION AGAINST NEGRO
Dr. Lynch Talks to Yale Walters on
 Industrial Conditions.


 Dr. Lynch Talks to Yale Walters on
 Industrial Conditions.
 Rev. William St. A. Lynch, D. D., pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. church, delivered a sermon before the walters of the Yale dining hall Sunday evening on the subject of "True Manhood"
 Tn the course of his remarks Dr, Lynch spoke of the unfair discrimina- ton against negro laborers in the north. They are debarred, claimed the speaker, by a sentiment of caste from entering the trades on an equal footing with white laborers, and are forced to seek positions as janitors or do other menial work. In spite of the race diffi- culties in the south, tle negro workers are better off there, from an industrial standpoint, than in the north.
 pr. Lynch also spoke of the great ed ucatlonal advancement among the ne- groes in the south, saying, in part:
 "One of the most encouraging signs in the south to-day is that an increas- ing number of the race are learning trades. Thirty thousand colored youth have graduated from industrial schools, three years being the average time giy- ell to the trade. About 1500 are now in the different industrial schools in all departments, they being crowded to the utmost capacity In other words, 1000 trained mechanics are turned out every year in the south.
 These colleges are so well adapted to the condition of our people that they have been established through the spirit of northern philanthropic enterprise, and are doing grand work for the salvation of our people"

HOW LEvEEs ARE MADE.

 Important Changes in the Methods of
 Building Them.
 The modern method of levee building is nowhere more scientifically demon strated than in the St. Francis district. In the early days of levee building it was thought that any uile of dirt ap- proxlmately so high and so wide and running approximately parallel with the river good enough

To-day the site of the projected levee is care fully cleared of all trees, the very be- ing grubbed out, beacuse these would decay otherwise, and leave channels.

vided by statute a person convicted of an offense shall be imprisoned for less than one year or fined not exceeding $500. The view would seem possisble that as suicide was at common law punished by forfeiture and ignominious burial, 1t is still a crime and comes under the punishment provided by this section; and that while punishment can never be inflicted, yet the half of it is applicable under the statute first above referred to, Assistance in the suicide of another, however, is not to be given with impunity.
