CRIMINALS.

The history of the nineteenth
century is filled with the reforms
which were directed not merely
to the Improvement of criminal
codes and the mitigation of pun
iShmentS for crime, but to the
better care of the insane, of pau
pers and of prisoners, who had
been treated in the eighteenth
century far worse than animals.
In some of our states and in
MANY countries Of Europe the
death penalty has been abolish
ed. even in cases of murder.
BEFORE the era of reform there
was little or 40 public sympathy
with the criminal. Today we
eem almost to have reached the
point where the sympathy is 50
strictly confined to the criminal
that there is none left for the
victim of the crime. The abol1-
ton of capital punishment does
not appear to have brought
about the condition postulated
by Talleyrand, who, when he
was urged to support the aboli-
ton of the death penalty, said
he certainly would if the muir
derers would begin by giving up
murder.-Henry Cabot Lodge.

SELLS-FLOTO
BIG CIRCUS
is COMING

As every season rolls around we
generally find the proprietors of big
tented attractions vieing with each
other in order to produce the most
novel act, be it either what is COM
monty known in circus parlance as
thriller or pure comedy.
There is something irrestibly funny
in the laughable act introduced by
the Sells-Floto people this year. 1t
is that of a real battle with the
flames by the Associate Clowns of
that organization.
A regular fire engine is used of the
most approved make and it may add
interest to know that it is drawn by
perhaps what are considered the most
celebrated team of fire horses on the
continent, being those who journeyed
to London a few years ago and wrest-
ed the honors from all competitors at
the series of fire drills given there.
A building is discovered on fire in
the center of the main tent. The
regular alarm is given and the fire
engine rushes in followed by the
clowns who come armed with soda
water siphons, watering cans and
other paraphernalia Their ludicrous
efforts to extinguish the flames is
said to be about the funniest thing
that has even been introduced to the
patrons of the circus.
The Sells-Floto circus will give
two performances here on Thursday,
June 8. The price of admission, as
most people know, has been cut in
half this year so that for 25 cents
one is permitted to see this great
circus in its entirety.

In one of the finest exhibitions of
baseball ever witnessed on a diamond
in this part of the country, the Salem
Senators defeated the hitherto in
vincible Albany Colts yesterday af-
ternoon at Albany, by score of to
2, after ten innings of fast ball.
H. West made the run in the tenth
that closed the game. Jones and R.
West scored the other two runs in
the first. For Albany, Baker scored
In the first and Silent Dave" Pat
terson made another run in the
eighth.
A crowd of fully 500 persons wit
messed the game. The weather was
perfect, and there was no wind inter-
ference worth mentioning. Hutton,
of Silverton, umpired the contest,
and his work was above reproach.

partial, and his detail work was ex-
cellent

Cernik and Goliath were dropped
from the team yesterday morning,
and H. West and w. Burggert, both
of Jefferson, were recruited to fill
the vacancies. The boys come we'll
recommended, and it is expected they
will add materially to the strength of
the Salem team.
H. West made his initial bow with
the Senators by bringing home the
winning run in his first game yes
terday
Jones opened the game for Jer-
mans bunch with two-bagger to
right, and H. West went to first on
Lees error. Portefield flew to left
and was out. Two runs.
Albany scored one in the first and
another In the eighth. This tied the
score, 2 to 2. The Colts rooters Wig
orously exercised their lungs, and
the Albany band in the grandstand
struck up lively tune.
II. West, the valuable new recruit
lined out a two-bagger in the first
turning it into a run caused Albanys
first defeat this season.
Yesterdays result topples Albany
from the top of the column and
brings the Senators notch nearer
the flag pole.
Several crowded automobiles were
lined up on the field just southwest
of the grand stand and during the
progress of the game. In the sew
enth inning H. West evidently decid-
ed to warm up the auto occupants
by putting them through little
lodging stunt. His first foul fly bat
tered in the derby hat of gentleman
in one of the tonneaus. and the bat
ter's next high ball landed in the
same machine. No serious damage
was inflicted.
The game was we'll advertised
throughout Albany; many large win
dow cards being scattered through
the business district announcing the
game.
In the Senator's half of the eighth,
Porterfield struck his head on the
ground at second base while making
a sensational slide. Further than
being stunned for a moment, he es-
capped uninjured.
