BOYS SUFFQClTED
 BY SLIDING SAND Campers at squaw Lake Were Digging in Artificial
 Cave.'r2 TWO COMPANIONS ESCAPE Bodies Recovered Soon, But Efforts at Resuscitation
 Unsuccessful.
TWO COMPANIONS ESCAPE

Holderness, N. H., Aug. 2S-Tatchell Cleghorn of Montreal and Robert Will Hams of Cohasset, Mass, each 15 years old, were suffocated in a sand bank to-day near the summer camp for boys of pr. Oliver W, Huntington of New pert, R. l., at Squam lake, where they were spending the summer. Three other boys were also caught in the rush of sand and while two managed to drag themselves free, the third, Daniel Dem ney of Newton, Mass, was unconscious when he was unearthed and was resus- citated by artificial means.
 The bodies of the Cleghorn and Williams boys were buried nine feet deep and were not recovered for two hours.
 The boys of the camp, according to those in charge, had dug a cave in a sand bank short distance from the camp, and although ordered to keep away from it, they went there to-day as they said to fll it up. Three of them crawled into the cave, and while they were digging there, the sand gave way and buried them.
 The two boys who worked them selves free, gave the alarm, and within few minutes half a dozen men were digging desperately at the bank, The Denney boy was reached In short time, but two physicians worked over him for half an hour with tanks of oxygen before he recovered.
 When the bodies of young Cleghorn and Williams were reached an effort was made to restore life, and the phy- sicians worked over them for several hours without success.
 The Cleghorn boy lived with his uncle in Montreal, his father having died some years ago. Young Williams was the son of Alexander williams of Cohasset, Mass. The bodies of both boys will be sent to their homes to- morrow

ready on occasion to oppose it. Thus, although the people at large knew or the details of the law, the spirit of le- gality was diffused through the na- ton.
 How great a part of the conception of the legal rights of the subject or citizen against the crown or the state power played in English and Ameri- can history Is known to you all. Still l less need I dwell on the capital im- portanoe for the whole political system of the United States of that doctrine of limited powers which has been so admirably worked out in your constl- tuition, nor of that respect for defin- ed legal right which supports their provisions, The life of every nation rests mainly on what may be called it's fixed ideas those ideas which have | become aXloms in the mind of every citizen. Now 1t was mainly by the common law that these fixed and fundamental ideas were moulded whereon the constitution freedom of America, as of England, rests.
 "One hundred and thirty-one years have now passed since the majestic current of the common law became dl- vided into two streams which have ever since flowed in distinct channels. Many statutes have been enacted in Eng land since 176 and many more enacted here, but the character 6f the common law remains essentially the same, and l it forms the mental habits in those who study and practice It. In nothing, per- haps, does the substantial identity of l the two branches of the old stock ap- pear so much as in the doctrine and practice of the law It is a bond of union and of sympathy whose value can hardly be overrated. lis a bond of | sympathy not least because 1t Is a source of common pride, The law of a
 nation is not only an expression of
 its character but a main factor in it's f greatness. What the bony skeleton is ! to the body, what her steel ribs are to 1 a ship, that to a State is it's law, hold- ing all the parts fitly joined together 1 so that each may retain its proper place and discharge its proper func-
 tt0ns. The common law has done this
 for you and for us in such wise as to
 have helped form the mind and hab- its of the indivdual' citizens as well as of the whole nation. It is all their own They can remould 1t if they will. i Where @ system of law has been made
 by the people and for the people, where 1t conforms to their sentiments
 and breathes their spirit it deserves and receives the confidence of the peo-
 pie. So may It ever be both in America and in England"
