The QUALITY OF MERCY.-A notori-
Gus mountain moonshiner familiarly
known as wild Bill" was recently
tried before federal court in Georgia
and was adjudged guilty. Before pro-
nouncing sentence the judge lectured
the prisoner on his long criminal rec
ord, and at last, informing him that
the court entertained no feeling OF
anger toward him, but only felt un-
mixed pity, sentenced him to spend
six years in the federal prison at At
lanta.
Bill stolidly shifted the quid of to-
bacco in his mouth, and turned to
leave the court room with the mar
shal. Once outside, the only thing he
SaiG was this:
WELL 1 suah am glad he want
mad at men'-Youth's Companion.

Chicago, lll.-Eighty.one dead and
2,736 injured are the second day
totals OF the accidents attending the
celebration of the Fourth Of July in
the United States. This breaks all rec.
ords for deaths since 1899.
h number OF deaths this year re-

more than at the same time last year.
In 1905 lfty.nine were dead at tho

however, Is only two.thirds OF the nv.
erage for the past five years. This Is
regarded as an indication that the az.
itatiOn for a sane Fourth Is having its
effect.
This years fire loss Is $535,435,
which Is above the average of the past
ten years.
Fourth OF July celebrations in Chi.

while the severely injured number
2,039. The death list this year Is thir.
teen, being six more than reported in
New York City. Cleveland reports
ten fatalities, so that New York has
third place.
Five of the Chicago deaths and
three In Philadelphia were caused by
