While distorted notions Of economy
are peculiar to either sex. man usually
finds his victims in his own domestic
circle In the majority Of cases a de-
cent respect for opinions of mankind
makes him a liberal spender when in
company. It was testified that the
enemy Of the ST. Louis transportation
companies was accustomed to play
pinochle at so a game. Possibly this
is why the walters tip comes easier
from the male sex. But, though the
economical man may be reasonably
liberal over his meals and amusements.
he exercises strict supervision over the
clothing expense account. his own in

On the other hand. woman has be-

less when it comes to the purchase OF
hats and gowns. The cynical might
suggest in epigrammatic paraphrase
that with her il is inherent economy
tempered by harmless vanity. This az
all events does not p'It her In as bad
a light as the man who economies at
home that he may increase his personal
expenditures abroad.

William r. Hearst this morning is out with a
blast of war against Bryan. From Paris he sends
the cable to Mr. Samuel Gompers, who asked him
to support the Bryan ticket Hearst will have
none of it, but in his sharp reply denounces Bryan
as chameleon and opportunist" The third
ticket is to be named, and its design is to finish
the Democratic party" Some people may think
that it was almost finished during the Cleveland
administration, and that Judge Parker put the
final touch upon it four years ago. 1t is interest
ing however, to Hearst in his new role as the
demolisher Of Democracy Fresh from his defeat
in his attempt to oust Mayor Mcclellan, Hearst
wants fields in which to conquer or to be
conquered. Yet the prospects are that Hearst
will damage Bryan considerably.

A sample of Jersey justice was dealt out the
other day to three men who were convicted of
sending Black Hand" letters to an Italian priest
threatening to kill him unless he left $1,000 at
place designated by the senders of the htter
Three men were promptly arrested and found
guilty of sending the threatening letter and they
were sentenced to twelve years at hard labor in
the State prison. The convictions were secured
under a new law passed by the New Jersey Legis-
lature, which prescribed heavier penalties in these
cases. few doses like twelve years at hard
labor in penitentary will have the effect of halt

PROHIBITION CONVENTION.

a LTHOUGH the prohibition sentiment has
increased amazingly throughout the
country, this growth has not been reflected in the
prohibition national party, which is holding its
sessions in Columbus, Ohio. AS a national party
the prohibitoniSts have made but little progress,
but they stick at it, hold their conventions, and
name their candidates for president and vice
president. Atsthe last election as a national party
the prohibitonists fell to fourth place. Debs the
Socialist candidate, leading Swallow, of Pennsyl-
vania, who was the nominee of the prohibition
lists.
The largest number of votes ever polled by the
Prohbitionists was in 1892, when President
Cleveland was elected. In that year they secured
total vote in the country of 263,4So, but the vote
at the election of 1906 dropped to a trihe more
than 10000. In 1900 it was more than 100000,
and in 1904 the vote was about 258,ooo.
In view of the growth of the prohibition move
ment, the out-and-out national third party men
may reasonably expect a swelling of the vote for
the Columbus nominees, but it is doubtful
whether their expectations will be realized. The
prohibition question has been voted on favoraby
in communities where it has been separated from
partisan politics. 1t has been decided as dis
tinct question, and the voters this year will con-
tinue on the lines they have followed in the past
Every effort should be made by the State au-
thorites to apprehend those responsible for the
death Of Columbus Jackson, the colored man who
was murdered by mob at Clayton on Sunday
Jackson, according to Middetown reports, bore
a good reputation, and was respected. That he
should be slain in the manner that he was is an
outrage Evidently there is a desire to cover up
this crime by those who were concerned in it,
and those who know of it, and the State authori-
ties should leave no stone unturned to bring the
guilty ones to Justice. The matter should not be
permitted to rest with the formal ending OF the
coroners inquest.

Is CHARGED WITH FRAUD.
Uncle Sam Objects to Use of Mails
nv W. r. Jones

W. H. Jones, colored, was today held
for the grand jury on the charge of using
the mails to defraud. The hearing was
before Judge Arson Taylor.
Post Office Inspector c. B. King has
been after Jones for some time, and the
most surprising feature of the case to the
authorities was the way in which the
prisoner had succeeded for a time in
double crossing" the department and
keeping out of its clutches.
Jones vas the Burial Casket Company
that Is to say, there was nobody else In
the company and Jones was the only
thing tangible about 1t. The stock in
trade Of the concern was shown to be a
manifold typewriter letter to applicants
for agencies, telling them to send SO fol
a bond and promising them $40 week
and travelling expenses. with commits
sion on all sales over $500.
Inspector King said that the department
got after Jones last fall and when mat
ordered all his pail at the post ONCE for
warded to Boise, Idaho. Inquiry there
showed that the mail was shipped back
to Washington, where it was traced to
30S @ street.
Jones in the meantime had been work.
ing for J. Wharton Clark. an attorney,
and bore quite reputation for honesty
and probity. The post office inspector
produced correspondence in two complete
cases where the Burial Casket Company.
in the person of Jones, had secured $1O
remittailces from would-he agents with
out forwarding them any selling outfit or
securing them a bond. On this evidence
the prisoner was held for the grand jury,
bail being fixed at $500.

bassador White, occupied places in the

formancss in the afternoon and there
were concerts in all the parks. The city
was illuminated at night and there were
elaborate fireworks from the bridges over
the Seine.
The League of Patriots. headed by Paul
De Roulede. made it's annual pilgrimage
to the statue of Strassbourg. on the Place

order Of the controller of the currency at
Washington. Milton G. Elliott of Wash
ington. representing the controller. was
appointed receiver, and will assume

from an exhaustive examination of its
affairs by William M. Hardt of-this city. a
national bank examiner. Pending the ar
rival of Receiver Elliott. Mr.. Hardt would
not make a statement. but from authentic
sources it is learned that the cause Of the
banks enforced suspension was its lack

PSEUDO.DIv|NES STIR REVOLT
THE MEXICAN AUTHORITIES
SQUEEZE OUT CONFESSION.
Sent Collections to Leader in United
States Except Money Kept for
Their Own Use.

MEXICO CITY, July 15.-The recent up
risings in the northern part of Mexico
were melted by two Mexican agents OF
the revolutionary juntas in the United
States. who travelled disguised as Baptist
ministers or missionaries.
These men, Eulalio Trevino and Cosme
Pene, were recently captured at vanesas.
in the state of San Luis Potosi. They
were brought to this city and held incom-
municado by the authorities, who daily
submitted them to a sweating process.
BY means Of some of the documents cap
tured a confession was finally forced
from the men.
According TO the admissions in the depo-
sitions taken, Eulalio Trevino was presi-
dent of a Mexican revolutionary club IN
San Antonio, Tex, which was subsidiary
to the junta at St Louis. He came to
Mexico under the name of leopold VII
lareal and worked his way among the
sympa thizers of the juntas in the north
ern part of Mexico in the guise Of Bap-
fist minister. He was accompanied by
Pena. also posing as q preacher.
The two held meetings before small con-
gregations in the states Of Coahuila and
San Luis Potosi. After these meetings.
love feasts were held, to which only the
elect remained. SO as to keep the authori7
ties blind as to their real purposes.
Trsvino was in direct communicated
with Magon, the leader who is now in the|
United States. and from time to timeI
sent him remittances from collections
made. Judge Perez de Leon, however
has brought out confessions from then|
that a portion of their collections were
fraudulently applied to their own use, and
that they were using their connection with
Magon to assist themselves III robbery
Another important find was the kew
which Trevino has had in his possession
TO secret code. believed to be thar|
which Magon uses in America with his
Mexican following. Other document
have been found. the nature of which vii !
not be made public, but the information
contained therein will be made use o
largely when Mexico appeals to til |
United States for the extradiuon of the
participants in the recent raids in Goa
hula and for the punishment Of thos
classed as political offenders against the
neutrality laws of Mexico.
