Perjury.

Court scenes nearly always contain
an element of pathos, but not often
does tragedy appear more plainly than
in the circumstances. which marked a
recent occurrence in a New York
court.
Before the Judge stood a man sixty
seven years old, who for thirty-six OF
those years had been an officer In
great financial institution, handling
millions of dollars Of other peoples
money without the loss or the mis-
appropriation of cent. He had &C
quired wealth and prominence, had
been a good husband and father, a
kind friend and a respected citizen.
But he was standing before the Judge
to receive sentence for perjury.
The district attorney himself admit
ted his duty in pressing for sentence
was unpleasant, and the Judge said.
"As much as l can regret anything
In my life I regret this my present
duty" But he imposed sentence OF
six months Imprisonment, with this
pregnant comment: Perjury strikes
at the very foundation of the law. 1t
is not an answer to say that no one
else was indicted with him for the
same crime"
The case is the outcome of the life
insurance investigation two years ago.
The old man had charge of special
fund of one of the companies, Of
which he was a vice-president, and
the jury found him guilty of testify
ing falsely about it.
One can legitimately feel a strong
sympathy for him, as having been
made the only one to suffer for Of

guilty than others-higher officers.

to regard the conviction as otherwise
than wholesome and useful lesson.
