II the truth were known, the reason
for their unceremonious removal
would probably be that their useful
ness was destroyed because Of some
mental worry. bodily ailment or gem
eral indisposition. These things, as
we all know. are the most fruitful
causes of failure In all walks of life.
The battle of Waterloo was lost be-

growing older and less useful. with

Every man requires from every
other man the best that is in him.
But no man can use or get the best

ANTI.TREsPAss LAW.
Agents Already Have Authority to
Arrest Trespassers "0n Sight"

Il is stated on good authority that
that anti-trespasslng bill of which
notice has been given in the State
Senate is not a railroad bill" and
that the railroad people have nothing
10 do with IT, Il Is understood that
a peace officer of the state Is respon-
sible for the measure.
The proposed law gives TO any
railway employe authority to arrest
trespassers "on sight" and a penalty
Of fine or Imprisonment can be inn
posed on such trespassers.
IL seems, however. that such a law
granting authority to arrest, but car
rying with the penalty no prison SEN
tence. is already on the statute books.
Section 21, Chapter 12S, of the Re-
vised code, says: IF any person
shall wilfully enter into, upon or
trespass upon the ways, lands or
premises of another In this State
he shall be guilty of a nuisance Any
constable or other conservator OF the
peace. the owner or occupier OF sucn
ways, lands, or premises, his agent
OF employe, OF any other person or
persons whom he. or any OF them may
call TO their or his assistance. shall
have authority to arrest such Offend
er, either with or without warrant,
either upon the premises, or In Inn
mediate fight therefrom. and II with
warrant then at any place, and take
MIN before justice OF the peace, or
mayor OF city, in the county, where
the offence is committed"
The penalty prescribed is fine of
not more than So and costs. The
person found guilty may also be held
under peace bond for one year. II
the fine is not paid the offender shall
be committed TO prison for a term not
exceeding thirty days.
