the administration was suffering from
an embarrassment Of riches. That
end Of 1t was easy. The hard task wa.

the fall Of Sumter, that the president
had made his first call and May
when he had issued the second. Yet
several governors met at Cleveland and
on May 9 asked permission to furnish
more troops. The country was OH fire

for the administration to do something.
Not only were soldiers being offered,
but money. The first gun that fred on

that the clash must come. The issue
was drawn, the lists made up, and all
that awaited was the trial by force.

AZ EMORIAL day. 1911, is rem.
" dered notable by the fact
that this year marks the fif.
teth anniversary of the be.
ginning Of the civil war. On May 80,
1851, war actually had begun, although
no great battle had been fought. It
was not till nearly two months later
that the first Bull Run opened the
eyes Of the north to the magnitude Of
the impending struggle. Prior to that
time most northern people seemed to
think that the contest would be over
In ninety days and that all a Federal
army had to do to take Richmond was
to march in some morning before
breakfast when Davis and Lee were
not looking.
On May 80 both sides were making
ready, but did not realize how big an
affair they had on hand. Sumter had
been fred on, Union troops had been
shot down In Baltimore, blood had
been shed in St Louis, ard Colonel

Fifty years ago Senator Stephen A.

gard Douglas previous career, his course
after Lincoln's inauguration was alto

til after he was placed in jail late last
night and then a complete breakdown
followed.
In his confession, Hopkins stated
his peculations began eight years ago,
his system being to abstract funds
from packages of new money as they
arrived from the mint. The money
thus taken was put in various invest
ments, one of them being the Automo-
bile Speed Indicator Co., Of which he
was president.
Within the past Is months Hopkins
lost his mother, daughter, sister and
wife by death. His confession came
when 1t became certain that the de-
falcation would be discovered by bank

In q number of years. Herbert With

WARMLY PRAISES
WARDEN RUSSELL
"Just and Capable Prison Official,
Says Robert R. Pointer After
Visit To Marquette.

81 regard Warden Russell as the
most capable and the most just pris'
on official with whom | ever came IN
contact, and | have visited many
prisons" said Attorney Robert Il.
Pointer, Monday, after return from
the upper peninsula institution.
Il went to Marquette prejudiced
against the warden" continued Mr..
Pointer. Il was given every oppor-
tunity to inspect the records and the
prison itself, and to converse with the
prisoners, and l am convinced that
the warden is humane and a ca
pable man.
My meeting with the warden was
amusing. | went in the interest OF
a Detroit prisoner, for whom a favor
is sought. The warden cut me on
short as soon as I had stated m,
case. with the statement that II was
impossible, giving his reasons.
said:
Warden Russell, | have heard a
good deal about you, and | want to
stay here long enough to look over
this man-eating tiger they have been
telling me Of
Then the warden smiled, and we
sat down and went over all the facts
in the case. After that, he let me
look through the prison and the rec
ords. | found that the men as a
whole had a high regard for him
They are well-housed and well-fed.
The cells and corridors are as clean
as the most fastidious housekeeper' 8
rooms | declined an invitation to eat
with the warden, and went out and
ate with the men. They had frank
furters and sauerkraut, potatoes,
bread, and their option of tea or cof-
fee, which | called a square meal.
The prison store interested me most.
II is a cooperative institution, es-
tablished by the men with money
they had earned by overtime. They
get prison scrip, and it Is currency
at the store. The men take great
interest in their investment, and II IL
one of the worst punishments in the
prison to be deprived of the privilege
OF trading.
Il don't think that as a whole,
there is better used lot OF convicts
