PERJURY AND LAWLEssNESs.

q :.
In this City a perjury trial is now
IN progress. In New York a federal
court directs an inquiry into the meth
DDS of a proaiinent lawyer in order
10 ascertain whether he is guilty of
having committed perjury Several
judges have lately directed attention
to the alarming prevalence of perjury
on the witness stand,s and one lead
Ing corporation attorney has eX-
pressed the deliberate opinion that
perjury is, committed in at least
three out OF every five cases tried in
this country.
Many thoughtful Americans deplore
the disregard of law which seems to
be characteristic of America, and
which is attributable to more than
one cause. In small things as in
great--in minor city ordinances, in
graft and bribery scandals. in the adj
ministration of justice-we constant
" run up against the fact of disre-
gard of law And this disregard Is
by no means confined to ignorant and
vicious elements but VIGOROUSLY ex-
tends to people who would be shocekd
to hear their responsibility and char
acter questioned.
If only unenforceable, blue, anti
quated or too advanced laws were
thus regarded the phenomenon would
not Sc half so grave as it actually is.
No one can say that perjury is an
offense good-naturedly condoned by
public sentiment No one can say
that the Pittsburg and New York
graft sandals are trifiing affairs. 1t
Is. therefore, high time a national
crusade were started in favor of re-
gard for law and legal process, and
the perjury habit might well receive
attention first. 1t may be that the
punishment for perjury Is too severe
and that juries hesitate to convict, as
some lawyers suggest. 1t may DC
that judges have heen too Indifferent
IlO tNlutHtt VI II 10 I'p

ljuries to indicate whether in theii

might indeed operate to deter many
persons from committing perjur'
lightly on the witness stand.

In the second ward the contest to-
morrow will be between Peter Saup
Capt. Faudrcr and Jos. Gothart--prin
igipally perhaps between the two first
ramed. Without disparging the
claims Of either of his opponents. it
can be truthfully said that Mr.. Saup's
claims to favorable consideration by
the public are superior to those Of
his opponent, by reascA Of his long
residence here, his large interests in
the city which make his residence in
this city permanent, and his greater
familiarity with public affairs. Capt
Faudree, an excellent man and cti
zen, has large river interests to look
after for the great Combine Coal Co.

THE USE OF MONEY.

Some men have unlimited faith 10
money. They believe it will buy al
most anything material and some.
times they permit themselves to be
deceived to the extent of believing
that it will buy even some things that
are purely spiritual In affairs of
the world they regard It as "a pick
lock that never falls and when they
have, somehow, become possessed of
a goodly pile" and are in politics,
they are art to regard it as manure,
which must be spread to be of bene
fit"
1t Is with money as 1t Is with
a great many other things it Is
good or bad according to the manner
or purpose Of its use. In politics it
is too often corrupting element and
for this reason its use in this con
nection has been restricted by law
Under the law which governs Cairo
elections, it may not be used as eff.
fectively in buying votes as formerly
not with the same certainty that
the goods" thus bought will be de

on election day as before, and there
Is no limit as to the number to be
hired or the price to be paid for the

man has determined to compel the
people of given district to elect 6
certain candidate he may hire
forty to fifty or one hundred men to
work" for him on election day, pay
ing all the way from So to $40 apiece
Naturally, when man employs
any considerable number Of men Il
do specific piece of work" he
wants some check on them, to be sure
that they do, or have done, the
work
On other occasions when men have
hired others to work on election
u days II has been comparatively cas-,
ta to have such check. by faithful

ROBBERS CHOKE
NURSE TO DEATH
Steal SIIverWare Worth Ten
| Thousand Dollars.

Millbrook, N. Y, Jan. 14.-Sarah
Bramer, nurse maid in the home OF
Barnes Compton, was chloroformed
and strangled to death by three bur.
glars who robbed the house of $4,000
worth of jewelry and silverware.
In the same room in which Miss
Bramer slept was the three-year-old
daughter of the family, who had been
left in the nurses charge while Mr..
and Mrs. Compton were spending the
night in New York. There was every
indication. that the woman had been
first chloroformed and then strangled
with rope twisted about her neck. It
is believed she came from under the
influence of the chloroform and began
struggle to save the little girl from
harm and the burglars killed her.
The interior of the house was in
great disorder. Compton is financier
with large holdings in New York.
A large collection of silverware con.
tanning several hundred pieces was

''N|NE7Y-7HREE"
The Story Of a Famous Name and How
1t Originated. III.

The foremost dermatologist in
France, DR.. Sabourand of Paris,
and Professor Unna, Hamburg,
Germany, discovered that a
microbe caused badness. To
prope their theory, DR.. Sabourand
infected guinea pig with some of
these microbes and in compare.
lively short time the animal was
denuded of every hair that was on
its body.
Some eminent histologists and
chemists were employed by the
United Drug Co., Boston, Mass,
to find the means of destroying
these microbes and remedy that
would create a new growth of hair
v here the hair roots had not been
entirely destroyed.
After months of study, expert
menting and research work, they
discovered what they claimed
would do what was demanded.
To unquestionable prove their
theory, 100 leading druggists,
located in as many different cities,
were requested to each furnish the
name of a responsible person
suffering from falling hair and
badness. Each of these 100
persons was furnished three bottles
of preparation with request to
give it a thorough trial and report
results.
Five of these people failed to
report. Two declared they had
been bald for years; that their hair
follicles had long been closed,
and their scalps were smooth and
glossy.
Ninety-three of the 100 sent in
enthusiastic reports, stated that
they were delighted with the hair
restoring qualities of the prepare
ton, and expressed sincere thanks
( for the wonderful benefits brought
about by its use. In commemora-
ton of this, the new preparation
was named Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic.
