town hill, one mile south of Valencia.
William Campbell, a railroad brake
man, opened the rear door of the chair
car in which the woman and officers
were riding. The next instant Mrs.
Boyle jumped from her seat and ran
toward the platform of the car. Some
one made a sharp cry and Brakeman
Campbell slammed the door and faced
the woman.
Mrs. Boyle quickly stepped into the
lavatory and was attempting to open
the window when Sheriff Gumbert
forced his way into the little room and
took possession of her. In the mean
time, the two detectives guarded the
rear platform.
Mrs. Boyle was taken back to her
seat and the three officers, visibly ex-
cited by the daring of the woman, i'm
mediately arranged their chairs in a
circle. Mrs. Boyle was placed in the
middle and the officers decided to keep
more careful watch on her move
ments. Sheriff Gumbert occupied the
last chair in the car, with Mrs. Boyle
directly in front of him on the left
side of the car. Opposite her sat
Detective w. w. Perkins, while in
front of the woman was Detective
Preceding her attempt to escape
Brakeman Campbell hastened through
the car and opened the rear door of
the train. Before the officers were
aware of her actions Mrs. BOYLE was
rapidly nearing the door. A sharp
cry from the detectives warned the
brakeman who quickly closed the
door As the brakeman shut the door
a look of anger and disappointment t
flashed over Mrs. Boyle's face but
turning to one side, she opened the
lavatory door and stepped into the
room. Slamming the door, she began
working at the window but did not
have sufficient time to open it before
Sherim Gumbert followed her. Fear
ing the woman might dive through the
window. Detective w. w. Perkins ran
TO the rear platform and stepped down
on the steps of the car in an endeaver
to catch her should she go through the
window
Immediately the car was in an up
roar, Mrs. Boyle was taken out of the
lavatory and escorted back to her
seat and the guard never Jagged
again. AS a precautionary measure
the rear door was locked. Sheriff
Gumbert, in charge of Mrs. Boyle, is
the old Chicago pitcher. He was a
member of Anson's team when it won
several National league pennants
Both in Mercer Jail

the young woman compressed her lips.

DOCTOR GOES INSANE.
Syracuse Physician Threatened His
Wife's Life.

Garden City, Kan, March 27.-Dr
p. G. Rowe has returned from Syra-
cuse, where he was called to attend
DR.. Edminston, a physician there, who
became violently insane In his fits of
insanity, the patient threatened his
own life as well as the lives of his
wife and the attendants.
AT one time, only the presence of
mind of his wife prevented her death.
DR.. Edminston placed a revolver to
her temple and informed her that he
would kill her. His wife told him to
fire away and this answer seemed to
please him as he told her he would
not fire then but would wait awhile.
Later. he ordered her to go bring
something from the outside. Mrs.
Edminston said she was afraid to go
out in the dark without a gun. He
gave her the pistol and she hid it.
DR.. Edminston's father is coming
from the east and he will be taken to
a private sanitarium in Cincinnati for
treatment.

The great hippodrome, with a seat
ing capacity of 1000, was jammed to
the doors, and although admission was
by card, great throngs of people were
turned away. People from all parts of
the United States clamored for seats,
inasmuch as this was the first of three
debates, the second to be given at Chi
cago and the third at some city in the
south.
Mayor Rose at a recent Louisville
convention challenged the national
Prohibition party to produce it's best
orator to meet him on the question,
so the debater was the accredited rep
resentative of the national Prohibition
party against Mayor Rose, who is gen.
orally known as the advocate Of sane"
regulation of the saloon. There was no
decision.
DR.. Dicl1ie, who was the first speak
er. contended that prohibition was
right from any standpoint considered
The saloon, he said, was the foe of
both capital and labor. decreasing the
earning power of the working man
The speaker next asserted that the
liquor business notrs only bred GRIM
inals, but was itself largely composed
of open and notorious law breakers,
who trampled under foot all legislation
enacted to regulate their traffic.
prohibition" said Dr. Dickie sis
the most efficient method of restraint" f"
He next arraigned the friends of the
liquor business, saying that While a
few respectable men were its apollo
gists. the dregs of society of both sexes
were the persons who would be found
most solidly lined up against prohibi-
tion.
Mayor Roses Side.
In arguing that prohibition is wrong,
Mayor Rose treated the subject from
three viewpoints, the Biblical, ethical
and material. He showed that while
in ancient times the evil existed, when
the ten commandments were written
no attempt was made to inject prohi-
bition. Treating the subject from the
ethical side, he quoted figures to prove
that prohibition increased crime, in
sanity, DEATH domestic infelicity, pau
perism and stagnated business. He
said the arrests in Milwaukee per cap
ita were less than in the prohibition
states of Maine, Kansas and Georgia.
He quoted census figures to show
that more insanity existed in prohibit
ton states than in neighboring wet
states and that the death rates in
Maine and Kansas were higher than
the wet states adjoining. He said that
prohibition had been a failure wher-
ever tried because it was impossible to
correct the i'll and weaknesses of man
by laws Nation wide prohibition, he
said would mean loss of $215, ,903, 900
of revenue a year to the government.
would affect the farmer and laborer of
the country, paralyZe business, cripple
railroads and be felt in every walk of
life. The mayor urged sane regula-
ton as the true solution of the drink
problem.

iYea, they all have one breath;
SO that man hath no pre-eminence
over beast. -Ecclesiastes III, 1920.
When in 1865 the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was
founded by Henry Bergl, it attracted
but little notice; it gained no prom
inent place in the public thought: it
was found among the sensational, bril-
liant or SNOWY incidents of the day,
yet no event has arisen In our age of
more weight and value in the advanc-

moral history of Christendom this
plea for the emancipation Of the dumb
animals from human cruelty stands
written in letters of enduring gold.
The man was well chosen for his work.
