MACBETH AND LADY MACBETH
Paper by the Negative Side in Debate by
Pupils OF Dawson High School.


Honorable Judge and Teacher
School and Classmates: AS has al
ready been said, our subject for de-
bate is;
Resolved, That Macbeth Had a
Stronger Character Than Lady Mac
BETH
1t is on account of Lady Macbeth S
Iofuness Of character that makes it
impossible for me to do justice to
the subject. In the character OF
Lady Macbeth can be seen a determi-
nation and a will power almost SUI
perhuman, while in Macbeth can be
seen a weak character, that in ques-
lions of vital significance could not
stand alone, a character that needed
support from a stronger, a will that
was dependent upon some stronger
will Macbeth found in Lady Mac
beth just what he needed-One to
advise and to lead him. Macbeth
showed a weak character in his con-
slant change of determination. He
hesitated to commit the deeds nee
essary to the making Of him king
on account of fear He made decis-
ions to commit no crimes and to let
things take their course when he
thought Of the consequence of his
deeds and the liable result to him
nd WI Ba
the prospects, the wealth and power
which he would gain by being king
he would deliberately plot again for
his advancement to the kingdom IN
til his fears again made him change
his mind
In Lady Macbeth her strength of
character was her dominant feature.
From the time she received the let
ter Of Macbeth she laid out a plan
of action and adhered to that plan
from then on. Instead Of being dis
mayed by possible results of this plan
TO themselves she arranged and plot
ted to overcome and allay the sus-
piciOn that might rest on themselves.
Lady Macbeth herself said, after the
receipt of Macbeths letter, that Mac
beth could and would not ever over
come the obstacles that lay in the
path to the kingdom unless she en-
Unused some of her spirit and strong
character and will into him. She
had the power to lead Macbeth be-
cause Of her strongness of character.
and she did lead him up to and over
the border of his ambition. She was
the headlight all the way.
Just as there is a strong good
character so is there a strong evil
character, and this was the kind
Lady Macbeth possessed.
Just as there is a weak good char
acter so is there a weak evil char
acter, and this was the kind Macbeth
was. If Lady Macbeth had just used
her character and influence for good
she could have done wonders with
his weak pliable nature.
When Macbeth showed signs of
Wavering on account of fear Lady
Macbeth, by a tactful use of her
brain, and a small exertion of her
will, brought him back to her plan.
When. just before the murder of
Duncan, Macbeth was afraid of the
result and maybe the attempt to kill
duncan he even went so far as to
say that he would not go any further
IN the matter; that he was through
with the matter; but Lady Macbeth,
by an argument, easily brought him
back to the contemplation of the
deed, and even to fixed determine
ton to commit the deed. When Lady
Macbeth showed some remorse be-
fore the death of Duncan by saying:
Ii he had not resembled my father

LACK OF FERMENTATION
Sought to Be Proved In Halns Trial
Through Real Estate Man.

Flushing, l.. l., May 4.-With thir-
teen of the defenses witnesses dis
posed of, the Hains trial started on It's
third week before Justice Garretson in
the supreme court here. Perhaps the
most important bit of testimony in be-
half of Captain Peter c. Hams, Jr., the
defendant, charged with the murder
Of William e. Annis, came when Leo
Bugg, a real estate dealer and a mem.
Der of the Bayside Yacht club, where
Annis was shot, testified that he had
discussed the merits of certain prop
erty adjoining the yacht club with
Thornton Hams, the defendants
brother, and at one time made an ap-
pointment with Thornton Hams to
meet him at the yacht club.
Bugg's testimony tends to show lack
of premeditation on the part of the de-
fendant and to corroborate that of
Thornton Hams, who testified that he
and the captain went to the yacht
club on Aug. Is last. the day or which
Annis was killed, for the purpose of
finding Bugg or his partner, Jesper-
son, to inspect the Bayside property.
Most OF the days session was occu-
pied by the examination of officers Of
the United States army and govern
ment employees, stationed at Fort Ham.
ilton and Fort Hancock, and the negro
servants VINO were employed in Cap
tain Hams household at Fort Hamil-
ton at the time he was in the Philip
pines. The army men testified to con-
versations with Captain Hams at vari.
Gus times during July and August,
1908, and characterized his speech and
conduct upon these occasions as IRA
tional."
Emma Lavelle. the Hams cook, and
Lille Sawyer and Minnie Bohme,
negro maids who were in the employ
OF Mrs Claudia Hams, caused consid-
cradle amusement in court by the
characteristic manner Of telling their
stories of the alleged "antics" of
BILLY" Annis and Claudia Hams at
the Hams Fort Hamilton home during
the captains absence.

ICE UP 66 2-3 PER CENT
Notice Of Increase Sent to All Con.
sumers With Monthly Bill.

Action that had been generally
expected In New York city in view of
increases by other concerns was TAX
en- by the American Ice company by
advancing the wholesale price of ice
sc 2-3 per cent. Notice of the increase
was sent to all customers with the
regular monthly bills. Large consum-
ers who have enjoyed contracts at 20
cents hundred have been unable to
renew them. The American Ice COM
pany controls half of the ice trade in
the city. Most of the other ice inter
ests have been awaiting the move
of the American Ice company, and 9TH
er increases will follow now.
Conditions in the ice trade are sim
liar to those of 1906, according to Off
GERS of the American Ice company,
but they predict that the wholesale
figure will not go above S., nor the
retail price above 40 cents a hundred.

ENDORSE LOCK CANAL
Congressional Party Returns
From Unofficial Investigation.

Many Of the Congressman Left New
York With the Idea That the Sea
Level System Should Have Been
Adopted, but All Were Convinced
That the Lock Type Is Better Of the
Two-Necessity For Large Steam
ers on the Pacific.
Further endorsement of the lock
type of canal and assurances of the
stability Of the Gatun dam were voiced
In New York this week by members of
the congressional party which return
ed on the steamer Panama after an
official inspection of the Aanal zone.
Most of the representatives expressed
themselves as delighted with their ex-
regience and number were outspok-
en- in their praise of the work being
accomplished on the canal.
Representative Michael F. Conry Of
New York said:
MANY of us left New York with the
idea that the sea level system of ca
nal construction should have been
adopted in preference to the lock sys-
TEN. But after personally inspecting
the great work and familiarizing our
selves with the conditions on the 18TH
mus all of us, feel safe to say, re-
turn convinced that the lock system
is the better of the two and should be
carried through TO completion"
Representative William Darius
Jameson of Iowa said the alarming re-
ports circulated concerning the sta
bility OF the Gatun dam had absolute
ly no foundation.
Representative James McLachlan OF
California declared his trip left him
all the more convinced of the necessi-
ty for the passage of his bill providing
for the building OF 10 5,000-ton steam.

side there would be handed over large
cargoes from the Pacific coast for de-

HUNDREDS DEAD AND INJURED
Storm Wave From the North Swept
Four Southern States.


The storm wave seems to have had
its orkin in the north and swept from
the lake region south in irregular
fashion, now moderating its force as
II spent, now growing more turbulent
and angry.
The state of Tennessee was an espec-
tally heavy sufferer Estimates show
that at least so people were killed in
that state alone, while the loss will
not fall short OF a million. At Frank
lin and In Hillsboro there was loss Of
life. The latter town is said to be
practically destroyed. Near Pulaski,
in Giles county the death list reached
II and many were injured.
The tornado swept over into Arkan-
sas and killed eight persons near
Mammoth Springs.
Atlanta md most of Georgia escaped
with only slight property loss. But
two young people, brother and SIS
ter, lost their lives at Atlanta by the
capsizing of rowboat during a sudden
squall.
Striking Alabama and headed in a
southeasterly direction the hurricane
continued upon It's course of destruc-
ton. Huntsville sends word OF heavy
loss OF property with probably several
lives sacrificed. At Hartzell at least
one is dead and many hurt.
The death totals were swelled by
three lightning victims at Monroe, Ga.

of his colleagues in the matter of
the application Of the Buffalo, Roches-

cate of convenience and necessity. He
says In part:
Many months before this commits

and had publicly stated the doctrine,
that for the most part our public
service corporations must be recog-
nized as local monopolies; and that
single strong company, under proper
state control and supervision, may
usually best serve single community.
But when 1t comes to protecting a
single railroad corporation in its
monopoly over all the immense terri
tory from Buffalo east through Roches-
ter and Syracuse to Albany, and thence
to Springfield, Worcester and Boston
OH the one hand, and to New York on
the other: when 1t comes to tightening
the grip of such a monopoly upon the
commerce flowing from the West to
our two great Atlantic seaports, and
upon that flowing from the great man.

our own state, hack again to the West
then I say that the doctrine OF the
advantages to be gained by protecting
the monopoly of single company is
being pushed very much too far.
While ] would certainly have the
state protect all public service corpor-
ations against blackmail, against the
abuse of competition. | believe the law
never intended, in these words of the
railroad commissioners of 1888 already
quoted, Ito unreasonably prevent the
