When Judges are Law Makers.

"Originally the judges dealt with
matters largely of private concern,
but under our system of government
they deal with the making of law
as we'll as its Interpretation. The
court can one day declare that the
American people cannot issue green
backs and the next day, without
changing line in the written law of
the country, declare that they can is
sue them. The court can declare one
day that the people of the United
States have an income tax law; the
next day, without changing line of
our statutory law, they can declare
that we do not have an income tax.
A more absolute truism was never ut
tered than that uttered by Judge Har-
Ian when he declared, in the dissent
ing opinion in the Standard Oil cases,
that the court had read into the
statute that which was not there. In
other words, under our system. the
court does make law; and being a 'aw
making instrum entality, it should be
a much subject to the supreme
sovereignty of the people as any other
function of government. '-Senator

Heart toHeart
Talks.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.
A DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.


The man, wife and little son came
aboard the train, settling themselves
opposite me, the woman and boy on
one seat, the man facing them ON the
other.
Ill tempered and unhappiness mark
ed the woman's face. She was ex-
tremely nervous. The mans face was
kind, but weak.
The boy was a normal, active little
mite.
For astime the child was quiet. The
sense Of company. Of motion and
change Of scene occupied him. Then
he began to wiggle. His mother spoke
to him sharply. d.
After few moments the little man
threw his arms around his mothers
neck and kissed her. Her settled
frown momentarily disappeared.
The man went back to the dining
car.
By and by the boy climbed up and
looked backward over the car. The
mother grabbed him. glaring, and sat
him down roughly.
When the child made the least move
ment she scolded him in a threatening
way. Once he got into the other seat.
She angrily clutched him and said, eff
you don't sit still I'll slap you good"
The man came back from the diner.
Plainly he had been drinking. He
tried to play with the boy, but the
mothers eyes blazed as she pushed
him back and shook the boy.
The father grinned and winked at
his little son. Evidently the latter
knew his father was tipsy, for the
child's face was very grave.
The father got up again, saying he
would go to the smoking car. The
woman uttered no word and did not
look at her husband.
I had been spectator at the disclo-
sure Of sad domestic tragedy. And /
wondered
Where did it begin?
Was the man driven to drink by the
woman's violent temper, or had she
been pushed into bitterness and loss Of
love by her husbands drinking?
But thought most Of all Of the boy.
The woman was on the road to des-
peration, perhaps the insane asylum.
and the man was on the verge Of
ruin. but what Of the boy?

How Decatur and Eaton Made
Tripolitanian History.

We of the west can never be Who'll
ly Indifferent to the fate and fortunes
of this much -harassed land. for our
flag has futetred from its ramparts,
and the bayonets of our soldiers and
the cutlasses of our sailors have served
to write some of the most stirring
chapters of its history. So feeble and
nominal did the Turkish rule become
that the beginning Of the last century
found Tripolitania little more than a
pirate stronghold, ruled by a pasha
who had not only successfully defed,
but had actually levied systematic
tribute upon. every sea-faring nation
in the world. 1t was not, indeed,
until the Pasha of Tripoli overstepped
the bounds of our national complaisance
by demanding an increase in the an
nual tribute of eighty-odd thousand
dollars which the United States had
been paying as the price of it's mari
time exemption that the American
consul handed him an ultimatum, and
an American war-feet backed it up
with the menace of its guns. Stand
ing forth in picturesque and striking
relief from the tedium of the four
years war which ensued was the cap
ture by the Tripolitans in 1903 of the
frigate Philadelphia, which had run
around in the harbor of Tripoli. and
the enslavement of her crew; her sub.

it has been a painful matter for him,

harden him to the presence of the fair
sex, but it proved unsuccessful. He
was placed on the main floor of
