THE "UNWRITTEN LAW. I"

In recent cases tried throughout
y the country where the "unwrltten
law was pleaded, the defence has
been allowed to introduce testimony
bringing out stories communicated to
the defendant, and upon which the
defendant acted, while the state has
not been permitted to introduce testi-
mony which might tend to show that
there was no truth in the reports re-
ceived by the defendant. This rule has
been based upon the theory that the
truth or falsity Of statements made to
the defendant had nothing ITO do with
the case; that the only way in which
the matter could come into the case
at all was as showing the state Of
mind in which the defendant was at
the time of the killing; or, in other
words. the relations between the par
ties. We do not question the correct
ness of this law; the theory seems
good. But the trouble about the whole
matter is that when IA man has killed
another, there Us too much room for
him to manufacture defence, alleg-
ing that his family has ''een wronged
or something Of the kind, and the
prosecution is shut off from any att
tack upon The truth of this defence.
And the verdicts Of the juries practi-
cally amount to giving a man the raght
to act upon rumors which he might
hear, without in any manner inquiring
into the truth or falsfty of. these ru-
mOrs.
The judges usually tell the juries
that there is no "unwritten law;
that the only law which they are
sworn to follow is the law as it is
written upon the statute books; but,
once the "uwritten law gets into a
case; the verdict Of the jury is, in
most instances, based upon it.
We are almost ready to agree with
airecent editorial which appeared in
one Of the Richmond papers; if the
"unwriten law is to enter into our
courts it seems THAT it can't be
kept OUTLET us write it, and pre-
scribe rules Of evidence under which
a man viii, at least, not be justified
in acting upon run1o1s without max
ing any effort whatever to inquire in
ito these rumors.

A Queer Patriot.

He says he's patriotic, that lie loves
his native land,
That he believes Old Glory is an en-
blem great and grand.
That nowhere on this globe Of ours is
any other spot
That ne would give allegiance to, or
where he'd cast his lot
But he says on the coming Fourth he
won It make any noise,
He'll spend his fireworks money on
poor little girls and boys.
He says he'd rather see child that
lives down in the slums
Get out and have a day Of joy than
hear a thousand bombs;
He says he'd rather see the laughing
face of some wee girl
Than see million pinwheels in a
mad and merry whirl-
That he will take the. money that he
might spend in this way
And help to give some little waits a
glad and glorious day.

Anecdotes of "Private" John Allen

Anecdotes Of "Private John Allen.
After sixteen years of service, dur
ing which time he enjoyed the repu-
tation of being the wit Of the national
house of representatives, "Prvate'
John N. Allen Of Tupelo, Miss, vol
unfairly retired to the more lucra-
tive if less conspicuous vocation of
the law. The memory of bis stories
and humor still survives in the ma
tional capital where few men have
been more popular.
The story of the way Allen got his
title of "Private'' is still worth
telling, though the incident happen
ed over twenty years ago. It was wher
he first ran for congress. His op-
ponent was General Tucker, and the
1.-TWO campaigned together. The genera!
at on meeting telling the crowd how
he had saved their town during the
war grew particularly eloquent in de-
scribing his sleeping in a tent the
night before the battle.

dred miles of that battle. .Tejoined in
his inimitable manner:

And see that all the little ones that
have no place to play,
That never see a flower in the novels
where they stay,
Shall get out on the countryside and
marvel at the trees
And know for once the child faith in

He says no crash Of bands and bombs
makes music to his ears
One-half so sweet as when across
some meadowland he hears
The shout of wonderment from tots
who catch the first perfume
They ever knew was held within big
red clover bloom,
That he will do his best to keep the
tots above the sod
Because he loves the children and his
country and his God.
He says he's patriotic-and perhaps
his words are true,
Perhaps he has a broader country
love than me or you.
Perhaps Old Glory will be just as
bright and brave and fair
IF tossing on the. currents Of the
laughter-shaken air
Where happy children run and sing
and marvel at the joys
Of grass and trees and birds and bees,

the war and slept at nights in your

One Of Mr.. Allen s most famous
speeches in congress was delivered in
the summer Of 1896, when Speaker
Reed and Major Mckinley were both
candidates for the Republican presl-
Dental nomination and as conse-
quence we're saying little on public
questions.
Allen began by stating that there
had been considerable comment in the
newspapers respecting the somewhat
unusual silence which had character
lied him in this session. "But, Mr..
Speaker he continued, "there has
been little in this session of. congress
to inspire a Christian gan to be To-
ouacious. I am not the only one who
has been silent in these days. There
are many Of us leaders who are not
talking much lately.''
Mr.. Allen said the Republicans
were going to select for their candi-
date a man who had the qualities for
which the colonel Of a cavalry reg4-
ment selected animals for his troops.
"He must turn quick and go fast. "
On a later occasion Allen. had diff
iculty in securing recognition. When
he finally cot the floor, he said in a
deeply injured tone:
"There is an evident disposition on
the part Of somebody to suppress my
impassioned oratory. wish to assure
the speaker and the house that it is
not my purpose, and I have no de-
sire by my fervid and persuasive elo-
quence to overpersuade this house in
to the adoption Of any unconstltu-
tional or hurtful measure. Sir, l
would scorn to take any such advan-
taee of the weakness of the house,
One Of the most amusing speeches
"Private" Allen ever made in the
house was in support Of the bill to
tax oleomargarine. Representative
Tillman of South Carolina, brother OF
Senator Ben Tillman, had claimed that
oleo is superior to many brands OF
butter and that it was an injustice to
the poor man to prevent his buying
it. In reply Allen told a story OF an
old negro who had eaten box of axle
grease, thinking it cheese. Upon be-
ing asked how he liked it the old man
said: "Fo, God, Boss, dat was de
ransomest cheese I eber has eat yet. -
"Now, Mr.. Chairman,'' commented
Allen, u have no doubt that if a
proposition we're pending here to pre-
vent the sale Of axle grease for cheese
the gentlemen from South Carolina
would deliver us a scientific lecture
and try to persuade US it was much
better and more wholesome than
cheese and that it would be a great
outrage on the labo19ng man to sup
press the fraud" ..-> ..

AT a banquet given by millionaire
senator one evening Allen hesitated
as he was entering the magnificent
dining room and then remarked to
his partner:
"My dear young lady, let US pause
moment or two. I doubt if l can
restrain my feelings
There semed to be trouble on his
face, and the lady said:
"Why, Mr.. Allen, what is the mat
ter with you?'
~ am sad," was his reply.
"For what reason?' >...
"Oh, it makes me sad to look at
this room. It reminds me so much OF
my own dining room at Tupelo." I"
Those who knew poor Aliens Fin
ancial circumstances could appreciate
the point of his joke.
When showing one Of his Missis-
sippi constituents about the house,
the delighted countryman asked:
"Who is the leader of this house?'
"Oh," said Allen modestly, "you
will find out when they call the roll.
The first man on the list is the lead
er Of the house. They are just now
getting ready for CALL"
The Mississippian pricked up his
ears and listened. A moment later
the clerk bawled out at the head Of
the list:
"John NJ. Allen!'

THE MOROCCAN SITUATION.

JdE mOhOOOAN I'LL " a $3.50
The Moroccan situation is regarded
as having assumed a distinctly more
serious aspect. The ferment in the in
terror of Morocco, the proclamation Of
Mulai Hsig, the SUltan's brother, as
sultan by a section Of the rebels aud the
appearance of new Moorish army be-
fore Cassblanca have created the fear
that the whole country will soon be
ablsze with fansticism. General Drude,
commander of the French forces at
Casablanca, has asked for reinforce
ments, pointing out that his men are
worn out with being constantly under
arms, but especially insisting that he is
losing the advantage gained by his sue
cesses because the limited force at bis
disposal prevents him from following up
his victories.
Special dispatches received in Paris
yesterday from TaDgier say that Mulai
Hafg, the brother OF the Sultan OF Mo-
rocco, who recently was preclsimed Sal
tan, ia marching on Casablanca with
Moorish reinforcements to the number
OF is, 900 men, recruited from the most
fierce and fanatical tribesmen Of the
south of Morocco.
