WHY is it that human life, the law,
and its administration are held so light
ly? Is it not because justice has been
made farcical by those entrusted with
its administration? Where juries are
not moved by sentimental appeal the
judges are often found lending them
selves to endless delays by the empha-
sis that they place upon the modes OF
procedure If through some mishap a
criminal of wealth or influence should
be convicted, executive clemency comes
to the rescue and a pardon or parole ie
obtained, until that law has terrors on
ly for the poor and friendless. In the
Beattie case justice was speedy anc
righteous.

magnificent city.
And how came 1t about that this city was de-
stroyed? Long, long ago, Sir Henry Morgan, an
Englishman--the most noted buccaneer Of all
time-gathered together all the pirates that in
tested the Caribbean sea, to the number of 1000
and sailed forth in quest of gain. First he at
tackled Old Providence, island that juts
abruptly out of the waters of the sea-and the
place where many of the terrible West Indian
hurricanes born-and after much hard fight
ing conquered the people and took what they
had. Thence he and his thieving band went to

having come from the gold fields of Peru and
been stored there by the Spaniards.
And so it 70 pass that Morgan and his
band of bold buccaneers fought a great battle
with the Spaniards who inhabited Old Panama
and the surrounding country. and won the vic
tory-though at a fearful cost. Hundreds of his
men were slain, while it is recorded that 5000
tory Morgan and his took possession of the
city, robbed the people of all they could find, and

havoc that was wrought by these murderous pi-

The old city was never rebuilt-the former
inhabitants who escaped the sword of the inva-
