This advertisement in local news
papers is sign of the extent to
which the shameless business Of
ambulance chasing has developed
In Philadelphia. The chasers are
the hirelings of unscruplous law
yers. Their business is to follow
an ambulance to the scene of an
accident and to badger the injured
victim to retain the lawyers en-
ploying the runner to bring suit for
damages.
The victim may be suffering
from broken bones and may be
bleeding and only half conscious,
but that makes no difference to the
cold blooded chaser. He persists
despite the condition of the injured
person and the efforts Of the doc
tors to drive him away.
This disreputable practice pre-

more, without an organization.
without patronage, power or
money, he was lifted on tremend-
Gus wave of enthusiasm in his own
convention and nominated the
third time.
And now that he is for the third
time defeated, what of the future?
Let no one think of him as has
| been. He Is still the best loved man
in America. He is a power;
scarcely less power in defeat than
in victory. Let us be glad that this
power Is guided by heart that
seeks only the welfare of his fellow
men, and by a mind true to the
conscience which is its monitor.
Wise or not, Bryan is good. The
world knows this, and warns to
him. And being good, we know that
whenever Judge Taft shall seek to
lead the country into movement
against graft as Roosevelt has
done, and as Taft's character and
promises lead us all confidently to
hope he will do, we shall see Bryan
superior to petty partisanship with
Taft's administration as with
Roosevelt's, helding up Tafts
hands and giving him godspeed.
No. William Jennings Bryan is
not among the has beens. He is
still the peerless leader of his own
mighty host. He has been the
father of many measure for
which Rooseveltism has had credit:
and Taft's administration, II 1t car
ries on the reforms for which the
people look must also be indebted
to the impress of Bryan's argu
ments on public opinion. Both the
party In power and the party de.
feated will continue to feel the
stimulus of his fecund mind. He
will be a power while he lives
and may he live long.
When the democrats meet four
years hence Bryan will be the
great figure among them. He has
remade the party, and made it a
thing needed-an effective opposi
ton. This is great work for any
man.

II have made up my mind" said
Bryan in 1906, that my place in
history will be fixed not by what
the people do for me. but by what
] do for the people" And the other
day, in one of the dramatic pass
ages of the ending campaign, he
said: "The democratic party seeks
to inaugurate new era in politics
and l am proud to be connected
with the movement. You may vote
me down or vote me up, but the
time will come. when politics will
be purified and elections made hon

MISSING TRIO
SUSPECTED Of
|. bL0OY DEED
Hi I'LL
POLICE SEARCHING THREE
/ ITALIANS WHO FOLLOWED
: sANTARo ON NIGHT OF
| MURDER.

What has become Of Ernest San
taro's three Italian friends? Since
the day of the murder of the sup
posed italian "Black Hand" victim
who was killed by II stiletto
wounds last Wednesday night on
the road to Minnehaha park, these
three men have not been seen.
The fact that Santaro was par
ticularly friendly with any one was
not brought.to the attention Of the
police until today The evening be-
fore his dead body was discovered
he tried to get Frank Bruno, the
dive keeper, to quell fight be-
tween three men which was going
on in front of the Bruno saloon,
Front and Brown. Bruno refused
to interfere, probably fearful for
his own welfare. This fact was
reported to the police. They now
associate those three men with the
murder. Since the murder they
have not been seen, though for
several weeks they were the boon
companions of the murdered man
and spent money with a lavish
hand.
They may have been hired
agents of the "Black Hand" who,
if Santaro failed to carry out muir
derous work assigned to him in a
certain time. were deputed to MUIR
der him as a warning against
others of the society who failed in
their bloody work.
A significant feature of Santaro's
short time in Spokane was the fact
that soon after his arrival from
Fernie, B. c.. he was penniless and
borrowed $50 from Frank Bruno.
This money it is known he spent
in a few days. He borrowed no
more so far as the police have
learned, but Immediately following
the appearance of his three boon
companions, he had lots of money,
which he spent with a lavish hand.
The others spent money freely
also.
Following the departure of
Bruno and Santaro for the Bruno
home near Minnehaha park, the
three friends of Santaro also took
a Minnehaha park street car.
Their car was 20 minutes behind
the one on which Santaro rode.
This would give them plenty of
time to reach the Bruno residence
and lay in wait for their victim.
Bruno claims Santaro remained
but a short time in his home,
drank some time. then departed.
AS nearly as the police en- figure
Santaro was murdered soon after
leaving the Bruno residence.
Although the most plausible
theory appears to be that the muir.
derers sought to blackmail the
wealthy Italian, and killed San
taro, his closest friend who acted
as bodyguard. evidently for the
purpose of frightening Bruno into
granting their demands, yet the
fact that Bruno was threatened
long before the arrival of the muir
dered man and his three COM
panions, would indicate the incor-
rectness of this theory.
Every Italian nest in the city

HAD NOT THOUGHT OF HEAVEN.
Remark by Minister'S Wife That Called
Forth Cynical Comment.

The wife of a minister was enter
tanning some friends the other day,
when one of the visitors asked the
dominie's wife If she had ever painted
a mental picture of heaven. She said
that she had not.
DO you mean to say inquired one

that you have listened to your hus-

you know what heaven is like?"
Il mean to say that have not given
the matter much thought. When my

goes That will be heaven enough for
me-" answered the clergyman's wife.

SeaauIIs of Auchmithie.

In the fishing village of Auchmithie
you may frequently witness seagulls
flying into the houses of the fishermen
and partaking of food from their
hands. One of these sea birds was in
the habit of staying in fisherman's
house all the year round except at the
breeding season, when it left About
fortnight ago, while the gull was
away. the fisherman removed his home
some 3k miles from the former place.
The fisherman never expected to see
his old friend the gull again. 1t was
therefore much to his astonishment
that he beheld on recent Sunday the
sea bird come walking into his new
residence with stately steps to resume
his old familiarities and household
ways.-London Spectator.

The Turks Wives.

Though a Turk is allowed four
wives, he rarely has more than one,
both on account of the expense and
also for fear of placing himself at the
legal mercy of so many women. He
is also most anxious to be considered
on a level with the men of other Euro
pean countries, and he is aware that
a plurality of wives is fatal barrier
to his ambition in this respect. Monog-
amy is very surely gaining ground.
and the harem life is losing its hold
on the people. This is especially the
case in Constantinople, where the ma
tive aristocracy is brought into closer
touch with the customs of other races,
and there is no doubt that in time
polygamy will be thing of the past,

Mr.. Bangs expressed himself to some
friends forcibly one night on the sub
ject of the managerial omniscience.

his friends, why do you attend re-

owed Truth of Boast That They
Knew Respect Due to Years.

While the mistress of the house had
gone out with her children three polite
burglars entered her villa at Triel,
France. Not wanting to put anyone
out, they had waited until the house
was empty But on exploring the place
they Unexpectedly found an old lady
in bed, the mother of the mistress OF
the house, aged over so. She was
naturally alarmed, but the polite burg
lars reassured her. One, young man,
the politest of the three, said:
Madame, allow me to apologize. Have
no fear. We know the respect due to
years, and would not think of hurting
a hair of your head. All we want is
the booty. Allow me to keep you com
pany while my friends look for II" The
amiable young man, true to his word,
sat down by the old lady's bedside and
chatted pleasantly to her while his
confederates plundered the house.
When their operations were over he
got up, bowed, apologized profusely
again, and retired. The rest of the
family returned to find all the val
uables in the house gone.
