UNIQUE Demonstration.

Counsel for Thornton j. l5ains are
today preparing for a unique demon
startion with the automatic revoiyer
with which William E. Annis was slain
to show that the writer was not a
principal with his brother, Captain
Peter C. Hams, in the shooting OF
Annis at the Bayside Yacht club last
August.
In the presence of Witnesses the
replica of Captain Hains's revolver
will be fred to prove that the seven
shells in the weapon can DE uischarS-
ed within / SIS seconds. Acting Cap
tain of Police Ivory denied the de-
PENDANTS counsel permission to dis
charge the revolver within .he town
limits. as it would be in violation OF
an ordinance.
Alderman Hogan told HaIls's law
Yer that the revolver exhibition might
be held along the Flushing creek.
Sometime today under direction OF
Major John Hams, brother OF the au-
thor the automatic pistol daInonstra-
fiop will take place. Ii is hoped by
counsel that the evidence showing
the rapidity with which The weapon
is discharged will refute the state s
contention that while the shooting of
Annis was in progress Thornton
Hams drew his revolver AMI prevent
ed Annis's friends from coming TO
his assistance.
Frederick Storm, the real estate
dealer who testified yesterday even
ing that while Thornton Hams was
talking with aim on the dock he auth
or suddenly broke off his conyersa-
ton about real estate and inquired
the whereabouts of AnniS, was one
of the principal Witnesses under
cross examination this morning.
Ii is generally believed by counsel
that the trial will hardly e. conclud-
ed before the end of the gear.

ALL HASTEN TO THEIR HOMES.
What Happens In the Small Town
After Sunset.

If you happen to spend an evening
in an English business town you cam
not fail to be surprised at the almost
complete solitude that surrounds You,
says the Philadelphia Record. This
town that you may have seen In the
afternoon swarming with such mum.
bers Of busy people, teeming with 50
intense life, is now deserted.
To its previous animation has sue
ceeded a strange calm. 1t is as though
you walked In a city of the dead.
1t is because every evening after six
o'clock work Is over In the English
town; the complex machinery of the
immense labor organization stops.
The factory and the office, their
doors open wide, cast into the street
their world of liberated workers. BY
crowded tramways, by crowded pave
ments, the town disgorges itself. Each
, one-cle.ks, workmen, workgirls, Of
lice boys, bankers and merchants
with the same haste to regain his
dwelling, leaves behind him the gloomy
town where he labored, where he
strove as In the lists. 1t Is an immense
and enthusiastic retreat. 1t Is the
daily exodus OF the English toward
their home"
What, then, Is 1t, this home Of which
the English constantly speak, the
thought of which touches their heart,
whose memory dims their eyes, that
enfolds all the happiness Of their life?
1t is home, a place in which to for
get the aggravations Of the world, In
which to be with ones dear ones,
ones pets and ones lares and penates
generally.

A Study In Slack.

Like a glimpse of the southland was
q little scene ON lower Seventh avenue
one morning this week, says the New
York Globe. On the pavement direct
ly In front of the entrance to q poor
tenement sat q negro boy not more
than FIVE years old. Bare-headed ana
bare-footed, clad only in two ragged
garments, he squatted like a tailor,
his ebony face alight with apprecia-
ton as he munched bit of fruit.
Close beside him on the sidewalk
was an old soap box. In the soap box
was an ebony baby Of IS months, clad
In a single garment-and equally
happy in an endeavor to swallow a
share of the fruit. The soap box was
a substitute for an unattainable baby
carriage, and the flve-year-old sub.
stitute for an unattainable nursemaid.
Dire poverty meant nothing to the
pair of negro children.

lnuuisitiveness.

The small boy who would investi-
gate the inner workings of the family
clock or the mechanical secrets of a
music machine should be encouraged
Nature is working out his best i'm.
pulse. His curiosity is healthful.
Later in life he will aspire to different
things, though he may always harbor
a secret belief that he can assemble
modern lock or set up gasoline
motor better than the man who made
1t. The impulse of curiosity is the
making of many a man. The progress
sive spirits of the age are those who
want to know how things are put to-
gether. So when Johnny tackles the
clock do not be harsh with him, and
like the mother mentioned in recent
dispatches, cane him. That mothers
boy ran away, and now she would like
to know where he is. That Gaming
may have diverted to a wrong channel
a curiosity that, properly deyelctel,
would have been the making Of the
boy.
