One of the large eastern newspapers
has recently abandoned the comic
supplement" of it's Sunday edition.
The change was followed by a discus
sion in other papers of the merits and
faults of the comic supplement. Pres
ident Hadley made it plain in his re-
cent article in the Youths Companion
that the existence of any feature of
n newspaper, good or bad, is deter
mined by the people. and that the
newspapers purvey what they have
found by experience the people are
ready to buy. In this. as in other mat
tcrs, we have no one to blame for
faults but ourselves-and our next

amination.-Missirg Man
Is Found.

Flushing, l.. 1.-The trial of
Thornton ]. Hams for the murder
Of William E. Annis was resumed Fri
day morning with Frederick Storm
under crOss-eXamination. Storm testi-
fed Thursday that the defendant WAS
talking about real estate with him at
the Bayside Yacht Club dock just be-
fore the shooting but suddenly broke
off the conversation and inquired as to
the whereabouts of Annis
Mr. Mcintyre showed by his first
question that the defense resents the
imputation of Witness Storm that Jes-
terson, the real estate agent whom
Thornton Hams claimed he had gone
to Bayside to see, is myth. Mcintyre
claims Jesterson frequently visited
the club, was a member of it and will
be witness for the defense. Helm
terrogated Storm sharply and ELECTED
the fact that there were plenty Of
members of the Bayside Club he did
not know.
Friend Of the Annises.
Storm admitted that he had been
close friend of Annis ever since they
were boys and that both he and his
wife were intimate friends of the An
Misses.
Did you know during his life tine
or afterward anything about the moral
character of William E. Annis?" asked
Mcintyre.
The district attorney interposed a
sharp objection and was upheld by
Justice Crane, who again ruled that
he would not permit any questioning
along this line.
John Tonning, the bOatman who
seized Capt Hams by the wrist at tho
time of the shooting. and who has
been missing since early in Octobcr
hae been found. and he will likely
be a Witness
Thornton Hams appeared in an un-
usually happy frame of mind FRIDAY.
He talked animatedly with his
brother, Maj. Hams, and his lawyers
as Mr. Mcintyre cross-examined Mr..
Storm.
Mr. Storm was excused and Herbert

was recalled to the stand. He was G.

ing for unique demonstration with

ance Alderman Hogan told Hams

might be held along Flushing dock.
Some time Friday, under direction of

demonstration will take place.
It is believed by counsel that the

State Club Is Sacked.

An enormous crowd of inhabitants
of the capital, swelled by people from
the outlying country, gathered in the
streets soon after daybreak. The peO-
pie began marching up and down the
main thoroughfares. The police stood
by and made no attempt whatever to
restrain the mob.
The first club attacked and looted
was that of the Literary Monopoly, a
state enterprise that has enriched it
self at the expense of the people, and
the room ransacked and pillaged.
Furniture was broken and thrown
into the streets and thousands of lit
erary tickets were destroyed.
The statues and pictures of Presi-

crowd cheered as the flames cOmplet-

the virtues of Castro and eXtolling his
powers were attacked by the mob and
every inscription bearing Castro S
name was hacked out and destroyed.
Some of these legends were carved
on the public buildings of the city.

A Bic Scrap

The "bulls" and the "bears" are
having a high old time around the
ring of the New York Cotton Ex-
change. One side says prices must
advance and the other side says
prices must 90 down. The strange
part of it all is, that these specula-
tive forces arrayed against each
other are not dealing in spot cotton
and do not expect to do so. Fur
thermore the parties which are ex-
citing so much attention on the
floor of the exchange these days do
not represent the price of spot cot
ton, but are fictitious and artificial,
being from $50 to 200 points below
the value of real cotton in the
South Stranger still, the daily
fluctuations of the artificial and
fictitious prices correspondingly
cause the same fluctuations in the
price of spot cotton in the South
How long must the South submit to
such practices? Cotton Journal.
