DECALoGUE OF BUSINESS LIFE.
TerSe English Used on List in PrI-
waite Office.

Some afternoon when you get ac-
quainted with him. drop into the private
office of r. P Andrews and look at the
little list of commandments that he has
printed and hung on the right-hand side
of the entry door. They are called the
Ten Commandments Of a Business Man
and they are in terse. ultra-rnodern
English.
Il don't care what you do after bust

CRIMINAL TRIALS I'M ITALY
System There, Though Simple, Diff
fers Radically From That in
This Country.

h reports in American papers OF
the trial OF the. Camorrists at Viterbo
have made many people wonder ii
there is any system at all about Grim
inal trials, and If there is. what the
system is like. There is a system,
and a very simple one it is, though ut
terly different from that which gov
ems procedure in American or Eng
lish courts, say an exchange.
The trial takes place before three
judges and a jury. to which are added
a certain number OF extra jurors who
are sworn and are present in court to
hear the testimony, and are held
ready to take the place in the jury
box Of any juror who may in the
course of the trial be incapacitated
from further service. The dispositions
OF all the witnesses have been taken
in writing and signed before the trial
begins, Each of the judges has a copy
OF these before him. The prosecutor
and the counsel for the accused fur
nish to the court a list of the wit
nesses they desire called, and these
are summoned all by the court. which
has power to punish nonattendance.
The first thing that happens when
the trial begins 10 the questioning Of
tho accused By the presiding justice.

Stereoscope Comma Back.

The old-time stereoscope, the friend
OF u childhood days is promised a
return to popularity in a somewhat
new guise. The old-time device has
been hitched to the latest phase Of the
Photographic art and it may be but
a short time before the modernized
stereoscope will be seen in the par
Tors and sitting rooms of every home
as they were once before. The NOV
ing picture machine has been made
available for domestic purposes. It
is no longer limited to the auditorium
and the hall, but a new camera, small.
compact, and easily operated and not
expensive, places the facility for max
ing these pictures within the reach Of
the amateur. With the KNOWLEDGE ac-
Guired with a little practice one may
make pictures which will catch the
merry twinkle of the eye, the deeting
light of baby's dimrle and the little
individualities which are lost in the
business of the studio pose.
The herald-advance. (Milbank, S.D.) 1890-1922, 1911-12-29

considered by the law to be the very
best witness to his own guilt or inno-
cence. In England and America the
accused need not testify unless he
choose. In Italy he is the first and
most important witness.
The accused Is allowed the widest
scope in defending himself. He has
a right to tell his W story in his
own way, to offer anything he can in
the way of justification or palliation;
even hearsay evidence is admissible.
The judge has absolute discretion as
to what testimony may be received
and what excluded, and any Judge
who exercised this discretion unfairly
would be an object of execration. Bias
on the part OF one judge is possible,
but there are always the other two
judges on the bench with him, and
they are a perfect check against un-
fairness.
When the accused has given his tes-
timony he is confronted personally
with his accuser. The accuser is
necessarily the principal witness
against him. Strictly speaking. the
prisoner has no right to interrupt his
accuser. while the latter is telling his
story, but in practice the Judges per-
NIT 1t, and the conformation some
times becomes a three-cornered de-.
bate between accuser, accused and
judge, the latter giving the accused
the widest leeway to demonstrate his
innocence.-Case and Comment.

Favors Revolutionists.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 13.-The Rev.
A. w. Lagerquist, in Omaha on a
years vacation after spending twenty
one consecutive years In China as an
inland missionary In the province OF
Hu-poh, champions the cause of the
revolutionists in their civil war and
says they are the prcgressives and
seek justly to overthrow the Manchu
dynasty. He said today:
"They have gained a signal victory
in the capture Of Wu-chang and II
they can hold it 1t may mean success
The army of the Manchu dynasty has
revolted and the rebels are composed
of the young and active men of the
empire. They want a new govern
ment, one that will insure justice and
one where the richest man cannot
buy the magistrates for they sell JUS
tice to the highest bidder there.
1.-THE revolutionists are composed
of scholars, led by those who have
travelled abroad. Some Of them want
q republic like France or the United
States. and II the presnt empire is
overthrown will call for the election
Of a president, but others who have
not studied and know nothing about
republican form of government. insist
on choosing an emperor from the
Chinese and expelling the Manchurian
rulers"
Mr.. Lagerquist is a native of Chi
