THE TRAGEDY IN SAVANNAH.

cal analysis of blood stains found on
a bundle Of clothing owned by J. C..
Hunter. husband of the last of three

Hunter from suspicion of guilt, as the
perpetrator of the triple crime, today.
The analysis was made at the re-
quest of the police by City Baccoriol-
oslst victor Basset and his deciara-
tlon is that though Hunter declared
the stains to be a variety of varn;si.

when it was "shot up" by members

All of the witnesses insisted that
the testimony they gave before the

and before other investigating COM

added to fix the blame on individuals.

midst Of the hearing of half-million-
dollar will case today when a reporter
entered the court with the news of
the judges appointment to the United
States Supreme Court bench. The
reporter quietly whispered the news
to the court clerk, who wrote it on a
slip Of paper and sent it to the judge.
The judge casually glanced at the
note as if it were the most ordinary
Of communications, instead of an
nouncement of his selection to the
highest legal body in America. He
folded the slip and stuck it in his
pocket without even communicating
the news to the two judges who sat
beside him on the bench.
Meanwhile the case proceeded un-
interruptedly.

THE BLACK HAND.

Italian officials are pointing out how
! this country becomes a rich field for
the Black Hand miscreants to work. In
Italy after man has done something
TO attract the attention of the police he
Is put on record and thereafter closely
/ Followed. Every suspicious character
is known, and after man has been
once convicted in court of justice he
Is kept very careful track Of Usually
after he serves out his term he Is put
under more or less strict surveillance
IL his crime has been a fragrant one. he
IS compelled to report to the police
Office at least once q week: he fs not
allowed to be out of doors after 9
O'Clock in the evening nor before 6
O'CLOCK In the morning; he must not
enter saloons and other places to which
evil characters resort. and IL he leaves
the town he must report this to the DO
lice, and also report to the police of
the town to which he goes. Naturally
these regulations are unpleasant for
men OF evil dispositions, and 1t Is pleas
ant to come to this country, where a
pleases, and there Is no black book
kept against him. The mass Of the
Italian people are mild, inoffensiye and
OF a real cowardly temperament. This
makes them ready prey for the bold
PAD men, and they are always a great
temptation to piratical individuals, y ho
want to make their living by the sweat
or somebody else's brow. The Black
Hand is reaping profitable harvest
wherever there are any number of Ital
ians in this country, and these are
mortaily afraid to report to the police
the men who are robbing them. They
have no confidence that the police of
this country can protect them from the
vengeance sure and certain of the
Black Handlers. and therefore they
would rather give UP a portion of their
wages each month and feel safe than
to refuse to pay the tribute and be in
mortal danger. 1t Is evident that we
must modify our police and criminal
regulations to meet this new class Of

Democracy down in Texas. after all. The
bill which has passed the Legislature
guaranteeing bank deposits is as far as
possible from the Bryan idea, and is in
strict accordance with Jeffersonian
principles. 1t simply provides that such
banks as agree to may enter into a
union to guarantee each others depos-

bank whether it will do so or not. This
was the idea upon which Massachusetts,

THE PILGRIM rERcENrENNIAL.

w. E. Haskell. publisher of the Bos-
ton Herald, takes time by the forelock
by beginning a movement to commem-
the landing OF the Pilgrims and the
founding of New England. He proposes
that this shall be Worlds Fair and
held in Boston. New England alone.
of all parts OF the Union, has never had
a Worlds Fair, and 1t is believed that
the time will then be ripe for such q
function. Boston and New England
will occupy the intervening years, Mr..
Haskell says, in planning and prepar-
ing for an exposition on a scale and
magnitude worthy of the Importance Of
the event as the birth of the American
Nation. If they are to really make the
event commensurate with its importance
to the United States and to the world.
IL years is none too long for the work.
Few events in all history have been
more momentous from every point Of
view than the landing of the Pilgrims
in 1920, which was as the planting of
the seed Of great tree destined to
overshedow the earth and all the peo-
pies in 1t. Whatever may be said about
the Puritans and the New Englanders,
they have certainly stamped their char
acter indelibiy upon what is now the
greatest Nation in the world, and it owes
large portion of its rapid growth to a
foremost position to the sterling quail
ties of the men who followed the lead
of the first Mayfower immigration 10
New England. To be worthy of them
and what they did the exposition should
be the greatest in ali the history OF
Worlds Fairs
