THE penney CASE.

Judge Hale Issues Capias

papers Can Be Served Whenever
Man Is Found.

One more feature was added yeSter-
day to the many which have already
characterized the now famous Roscoe
f. Penney bankruptcy case, by the &C
ton taken by Judge Clarence Hale OF
the United States district court at
| Portland 1t will be remembered by
those who have followed the case that
Judge Hale's citation for Penney to
appear before the court at Portland
and show cause why he should not be
punished for contempt in diSobeying
| the order of the court to pay over the
sum of 5000 to the trustee in bank
ruptcy no later than July l, 1908, was
| returnable at 10 o'clock Thursday fore
noon.
| At that hour A. NJ. Goddard Of this
| city appeared before the court in bciair
| of the petitioning creditors. nat Mr..
| Penney was not there, neither was his
counsel there. 1t might be said mere
| that Hon. Orville d. Baker, who was
associated with M. r. Sawtelle in the
case has Withdrawn from the case.
AS the United States marshal had
made his return on the summons that
he had made dlligent search and was
| unable to find Penney within the dis
| trict of Maine. and had therefore serv-
ed the summons by leaving an attested
copy at his place of last and usual
abode. Mr.. Goddard filed petition in
| behalf of the creditors asking the court
to issue a capias directing the United
states marshal or any of his deputies
to arrest Penney forthwith if found
within the district of Maine and bring
him before the court to show why he
should not be punished for contempt or
court.
Judge Hale granted the petition and
the capias issued accordingly, and it IS
now in the hands of the United States
marshal This capias is not returnabfe
at any particular time but is placed IN
the hands of the marshal to arrest
Penney whenever he can find him, and
bring him before the court.

had walked about a mile and hait
he ran across a COW moose. 1t is not
generally supposed that COW moose
will give chase to a man but TINS one
did and the chase was very lively one

Is 1T TRUE NOW?

Carl Schurz. in the last of the series
Of his famous "reminiscences, publish
&C in the September McClure's, speaks
strongly of the moral soundness of
:he plain people of America, as oppos-
I'd to the dangerous moral cowardice
Of the politicians in the republic. He
says:
Il have had an active part in a
great many political campaigns and
probably addressed as many popular
meetings as any man now living; and
l have always found that whenever
any public question under public dis
cussion had in it any moral element.
an appeal to the moral sense of the
people proved uniformly the most
powerful argument. With the major
ity of the people, notably the plain
people, using the term in the sense
IT, which Abraham Lincoln was wont
to use it found the question. is

THE INDoNnTABLE'S SPEED.

When the "Lustania" recently
broke the transatlantic record by COW
ering the distance from land to land
a, a speed of 25.1 knots, it was pre-
sumed that she had placed the figures
at a mark where they would stand for
many months to come. saws the Sci
entific American. Outside of her dis
abled sister. the "Mauretanla," there
was apparently no vessel in sight that
could come within several knots of
that speed, Certainly, It was not for
moment supposed that a cruiser
battleship carrying an armament of
eight 12-inch guns would be able to
set out and better the performance;
yet this is what has been done by the
"lndomitable," one of the three
"Dreadnaught" type Of cruisers re-
Gently built for the British navy. The
feat was accomplished on her return
with the Prince of Wales from the
Quebec celebration. 1t. is claimed
that on her trials the ship made 27
knots for seevral hours: and advan-
tage was taken of the opportunity for
a long ocean test to drive the ship
under full power from land to land.
The average speed of the "Indomita-
bic" for the whole course was 25.13
knots, and for four hours in the early
part of the voyage she made 26.4
knots. Incidentally, she also captur-
ed from the "Lusitania" the record
for the highest single days run to the
westward, by steaming sos knots from
noon to noon. The vessel was not in
any way stripped for this perform
ance. All the heavy gu.g ..--- v..
board, the magazines were filled with
ammunition, and she carried the full
equipment of active service. The best
previous transatlantic trip by a war
ship was made by the cruiser Drake"
on her return trip from America
few years ago. when she averaged 19
knots, Our own cruiser Columbia"
more than a decade ago, established
the first record of this kind by steam
ing from the British coast to Sandy
Hook at an average speed of IS
knots.

BE STRONG AND UNAFRAID.

Fear is your deadiest foe.
Also it is a figment of your fancy
And useless.
Psychologists say fear impoverishes
the blood, interferes with the assimi-
latlon of food, attacks the nerve CEN
ters and lowers the physical powers.
It makes a man physically unfit.
If so, what must its effect on the
mind be?
It lessons ones ability to think,
lowers his ambition, weakens his
character and affects his happiness.
In short, all the forces of personality
go in front of fear.
Fear whispers to the young, strong
to do and dare, and the strength be-
comes as water. 1t assails the middle
aged, and the uplifted arm of energy
falls inert. It torments the old and
robs IT Of it's peace. And yet
Strong thief as it is. it is an abnor-
NAL weakllng, for it is the son of ig-
norance and superstitutlon.
II one knows himself and knows
life as it is, there is nothing anywhere
to be afraid Of. If one knows not him
self nor life. fear is unavailing, use
less.
To put 1t plainly, there are two
things one should never fear-first,
what he can help and, second, what
he cannot help.-Edwin A. Nye.
