life through which she has been passing
during the last half century. The lnces-
SAINT criticism and complaints that have
been brought against her regarding her
attitude and policies in the far east APP
pear to be, in my opinion. due to the
rather hasty conclusions of travelling OBJ
servers. Some are advanced against our
nation in our new field of industrial &C
tivities in Manchuria: others against the
attitude we have adopted in the less or
ganized kingdom under our protection.
These are the countries from which ia
pan acquired in former times her system
of government, education and even re-
ligiOn. by means of which We regulated
our political and social life.
eff these countries could live up to their
ideas of government and society. how
ever obsolete they may be, 1t is certain
they could maintain their positions more
securely. But failing in this they have
allowed themselves to fall into an un-
happy condition-disorganize misgov-
erned impoverished-and thus have per-
mitted themselves to become the prey OF
sinister design and selfish purposes With

ton threatened. and she was finally

for her self-preservation and to assume
responsibilities for their peace and hap

straight of and eats dog grass This
brings him round at once. Cats. in like
circumstances, go to cat grass Cows
and sheep take certain medicinal herbs.
Monkeys have been known to dress
wounds with leaves. LatreilIi cut off an
ant antennae. and other ants came and
covered the hurt parts with a healing
fluid secreted In their mouths. It is even
said that birds have been known to set

HAMS TO TESTIFY.
His Story Is Expected to DemoIish the
States Case.

Flushing, N Y, Dec 24.-The- states
case against Thornton ]. Hams, for
participation in the murder of William
E. Annis, is near its close. District At
torney Darrin said that he hoped all
the prosecutions witnesses could be
heard before an adjournment is taken
over Christmas until Saturday. The
wives of three members of the Bayside
Yacht club, are under subpoena and
may be called by the state today to tell
of Incidents in which Mr.. Annis partici-
pated previous to the shooting.
The lawyers for Thornton Hams ex-
pect to open the defense on Saturday or
Monday, and Joseph Shay will outline
the case to the jury. 1t IS not known
how many witnesses will be called for
the defense, but Mr.. Mcintyre and Mr..
Shay are placing their main hope in
the story that Thornton ]. Hams will
tell on the stand.

Defendant Hams in Court, Closely Fol
lowing the Proceedings.

Thornton Hams recital" said Mr..
Mcintyre today. will be clear and con-
vincing and will tear the states case
to pieces. The defendant has no fear
of the cross examination of the prose-
cution's lawyers and after the testimo-
ny the shooting of Annis will be seen
in a different light"
1t is generally regarded as certain
that Hams lawyers will take the stand
to refute the testimony of Policeman
FaIlon that Thornton Hams, referring
to Annis said to him on the night of
the coroner's inquest that he would
like to go down into hell and bring him
back and kill him over again"
With the Introduction of the Ripley
letter yesterday, the defense's counsel
will probably develop from Thornton
Hams what he meant in his letter re-
garding Annis and if this line of exam
ination is allowed the story of Captain
Peter c. Hams unfortunate marital
trouble. will come out.
