AITTTLE LOVE INTO LAW
gudue Lindsey Says the Jail viii NOT
Solve the Problem OF Crime.

Judge Ben B. Lindsey, the juvenile
reformer of Denver, speaking before
The Harvard students, said that our
whole Jurisprudence in criminal
matters has been based upon a re-
cognition of the sacredness OF prop
erty rights rather than the sacred
ness of the human rights.
Judge Lindsey said in part: Inc
young offender is in the ordinary
court made to feel great fear OF
the law, looking upon the policeman
as his enemy and upon the court al
a place leading to Jail. The remark.
able work that has been accom-
plished in the Denver Juvenile cour
has been done through sympath.
wisely directed and by carefully stu
diving the conditions of the younl
offenders and not through following
out the old principle of respecting
property rights at any cost to the in
dividual. q
in the majority OF Juvenile oil
lenses the culprits arc not reall'
bad. They have loyalty, but the 10y
atty is misdirected because there
no director. They have energy, bu
lit is likewise misdirected, and tina
misdirected energy we used to ca
crime. The Jail will never solve Tn
problem of crime; it must be solve
by the home, church and school. W
are merely putting, for the first tim
in the history of the world, a littl
love into the law

frock, with broad pink sash ribbon
a white hat with wreath OF pink
roses.
The bride is one of the lovelies
iof her sex, and from early girlhoot
has frightened the home for TN
family by her charming presenc'
and sweet womanly consideration
for others.

Again the whereabouts OF the seal
of the Confederate States is being
agitated. An old negro in Washing
ton claims that he was a servant IN
The household of President Davis at
Richmond, and that he knows where
the seal is-but will not tell. 1t is
Dot probable that such secret
would have been entrusted to even
a trusted servant, and it is not ike
IL that he would know what seal
is, But some give credence to MS
statement. and, in consequence, the
negro has been kept in good posi-
tions in Washington for the past
twenty-five years, through the lntu-
ence of Southern Democrats.
Another statement in regard to the
lost seal of the Confederacy comes
from Richard r. Grant, who in an
interview with the Times-Democra'
said that he was private secretary 10
Hon. Judah p. Benjamin in London
after the fall of the Confederacy
that he does not know what became

Mr.. Benjamin carried it to London
II is very likely that the seal OF tht
Confederacy is at the bottom OF TIM
Savannah river. So wrote one OF TIT
nartv who accompanied Secretary o

Richmond. He writes that just afte
crossing the Savannah, Mr.. Benja
min threw the seal into the river
and doubtless there it lies.

Absolute cessation, so far as pos
sible, of the activities of 100000

throughout the world for FIVE min
utes silent prayer and dcontemplation,
lis a suggestion which United States
Senator Root of New York has
made for the celebration of the
Tooth anniversary of peace among
English-speaking peoples
The suggestion came out in con-
nection with the appointment by
Mayor Gamer Of a committee Of 100
to have charge Of the celebration Of
the Centennial
The date suggested is February
II, 1915, the date of the anniver-
sary Of the ratification by the Amer
lean and British governments of the
treaty Of Ghent
Should Senator Roots suggestion
be literally adopted and scruplous-
ly carried out, the 6ve.minute prayer
period will be mathematically equal
