A Curious Legal Problem.

The prosecuting authorities
Of New York are somewhat
luMled by a singular case
with which they are burden
ed at the present time. A
young tough while being shot
at by a fel]ow-rough, held a
boy before him as a shield a
gainst his antagonists bullets
with the result that the boy
was killed. The man who fir
ed The shot shot saved all fur
ther trouble in his case by
committing suicide, but the
coward who was mean enough
to sacrifice the life of Il boy
to save his own carcass remain
ed in the hands Of the police,
and his case is embarrassing
the authorities not a little.
That the coward who used
the boy as a human shield
was morally guilty of That
boys death admits of no ques
ton, but it is equally certain
that the actual homicide was
committed by another. That
some punishment should be
meted out to a miscreant who
sacrificed another's life tol
shield himself under circum.
stances of peculiar heartiess-
ness and cowardice is certain,
but the problem is how to de-
fine his guilt under the law. |
1t is said that the district
attorney of New York prose-
cute the coward on the charge
OF murder, on the theory that |
his act in placing the boys
life in jeopardy, so that he
was actually killed, constitut
cd, in reality murder, and
merits the same penalty. At
the same time the fact is re-
cognized that the statues Gov
ering the crime of murder do
not entirely fit the case. no,
can it be claimed that the ac-
fused was accessory to MUIR

Aborigines Had Odd Ball Game

The great American game Is very prop
crly domiclled in this hemisphere accord =
Ing TO Franklin Adams. the perIpatctic
editor OF the Bulletin OF Pan American
Union. tho official magazine OF the bureau
OF American republics.
On recent tour OF South and Central
America Mir Adams came across owl
dences OF the original ball game. which
was passion among the highly civilized
aborigncs Of Honduras, Guatemala and
Yucatan long before the conquest OF Mex
leo by Cortcz In the first half OF the six
teeuth century.
Among the ruins OF the ancient city OF
Chicken liza c'thc Mouth OF the Wells OF
the Itzas'D on the Yucatan peninsula
station. the traveller found a remarkable
ball court bounded by parallel walls OF
cement and adobe 20 feet long and
twenty-seycn feet high. placed ll9 feet
apart Lying az the foot of one OF these
walls was an enormous limestone ring
more than four feet i'm diameter and
eleven inches thick. pierced by hole
eighteen inches in diameter. Tho relic
naturally excited the Investigators Gu

who celebrated the Olympic games with
something of religious fcrvor as well as
out OF love for sportsmanlike contests.
The Chicken ltzaites gathered for their
ball games much as did the ancient Ro-
mans for their gladiatorlal combats for
frequently a victory was celebrated by
human saCrifcc--the victims being
thrown into the sacred well OF the liza
after n very elaborate ceremony OF con
secration. On other occasions the con-
testants wagered their. own liberty on
their prowcss,
The game was played with rubber
ball. which. as the ancient chronicers
explained with ingenious accuracy, was
made from white drops which cNude
became hard and black when exposed
to the air for several days The ba1s
were large and solid the cighteen-mCh
aperture being barely large enough TO
allow them to pass through with ease.
The two enormous stone rings were
twenty or twenty five feet I'm the air.
The contestants. sometimes nine or ten
on n side. but moro frequently playing
not allowed TO touch the
balls with sthcir hands. but were sup
posed 10 make The strokes with the
uoint OF the hip. which was covered With
rawhide
The object Of the game was to send
the ball through the hole in the ring,
and the goal WAS made all the more
difficult because the ring was fastened 10

floor OF The court. and not parallel. az
