Very Suspicious.


Arthur Roberts told an amusing
story anent a certain well-known
millionaire, famed for his cautious
habits, who was once called upon by
two gentlemen who tried TO interest
him In a certain theatrical scheme of
theirs.

THE MAN WHO COMES
FROM THE CROWD

Men seem as alike as the leaves on
the trees.
As alike as the bees in a swarming of
bees;
And we look at the millions that
make up the state.
All equally little and equally great.
And the pride of our courage is
cowed.
Then Fate calls for a man who Is
larger than men.
There's a surge in the crowd; there's
a movement and then
There arises the man who is larger
than men.
And the man comes up from the
crowd.
The chasers of triies run hither and
yon,
And the little, small days of small
things still go on.
And the world seems no better at
sunset than dawn,
And the race still increases its plen-
tiful spawn,
And the voice of our wailing is loud.
Then the Great Deed calls out for the
Great Man to come,
And the crowd. unbelieving. sits sui
len and dumb:
But the Great Deed r. done, for the
Great Man is come
Aye. the mar comes up from the
crowd.
There's a dead hum of voices. all the
same thing,
And our forefathers' songs are the
songs that We sing.
And the deeds by our fathers and
grandfathers done
Are done by the son of the son of the
son,
And our heads in contrition are
bowed.
Lo, a call for a man who a make
all things e
Goes down through the throng. See,
he rises In view.
Make room for the man who can
make all things new,
For the man who m up from the
crowd.
Anu WHeIe 10 the man Nho Cohhes uP
from the throng.
Who does the deed and who
sings the new song,
And who makes the old world as a
world that Is new
And who is the man? 1t Is You, 1t
Is You,
And our praise is exultant and proud.
We are waiting for YOU therefor
you, the man.
Come up from the jostle as soon as
you can;
Come up from the crowd there. for
you are the man,
The man who up from the
crowd.

AIienist Puts One Over on Lawyer.

a story concerning his friend. DR.. o.

DR.. Hamlin was called to court
last week in a case which had as its
mooted point the sanity. or lack of

testimony was TO the effect that he
could find no traces of insanity. This
angered the attorney for the defend
ant to a considerable extent, al
though that gentleman's ire was
somewhat Modified by the fact that
he had in curt and sitting along
side him DR.. A. n. Gardner, the
famous insanity expert.

All. you cannot repeated the lie

And why cannot you give the Court

For the very good reason that no
comprehensive definition of insanity

when in college hal It was hardly
likely that insanity could ever be
suitably defined"

NEVADA'S NEW IDEA.

The ST. Louis Times in an editorial
believes that Nevada after all may
be on the right track in its methods
of administering the death penalty.
In commenting upon the subject il
says:
Nevada has struck a new note in
the symphony pathetique' of hui
man ills by evolving a plan for the
aid and comfort of men who have
been condemned TO death.
The plan suggested in Nevada is
that men who face the gallows be
given the privilege of dying in some
other fashion. 1t is planned TO give
to men in such predicaments a dead
ly poison, and insure them an OPP
p%ortunity to take il. If, after n
stated time, the prisoner has not
shuffled off the mortal coil by the
aid of the drug placed in his po-
session, the moose may then be adj
iusted.
The terrors of death by hanging
are probably. the terrors of anticipa-
ton. Experts say that the actual ex-
perienee is usually not extreme.
ly painful. Ii is like the pulling of
a tooth-the end is reached almost
simultaneously with the beginning.
But the days and nights of wait
ing are equivalent, perhaps. To many
deaths. whereas the law has exacted
but one death.
THE theory that the law Furnishes
is an obsolescent one. and will be
quite abandoned when a higher con
dition of kindness and intelligence
prevails. The law may have a right
TO say that a nan may not live; but
1t requires a wholly sinister kind of
logic to show that the law or any
other earthly power has a right to
make any human being suffer. Suf-
fering may sometimes be inevitable.
but that should be because 1t cannot
be eliminated.
The man who is imprisoned should
be given the best possible opportun-
ity to work out his moral salvation.
The man who must be put TO death
%conceding that the thing is ever right
or necessary should be killed merei-
fully.
The Nevada idea may be a step
in the right direction. Though un-
less the prisoner may be made To
believe that he has received the
fatal draught surreptiously II is like
ly, after all, that he might look for
ward with equal terror to the hem.
lock and TO the moose.
