Berlioz.

Berlioz, the famous French compos.
er, was made miserable by his wife.
He married Miss Smithson, an actress,
many years younger than himself. She
had prolonged fits Of jealousy and ill
temper, ruined him by her theatrical
ventures and finally fell from car
riage and broke her leg. thus ending
her artistic career. Berlioz bore with
her in patience until she finally left
him. He was a tall man, Of stern
aspect and very dignified. In spite Of
his immense musical abilities as a
composer he could play no instrument
except the guitar, and that very badly.

Henry Wolfer, warden Of the Min
nesota prision at Saltwater says:
Il never have favored capital
punishment and the more I study
methods Of dealing with the criminal
classes the more convinced l am
that the death penalty should not
be invoked.
In the first place if the purpose
of taking the life of a murderer is to
deter others from committing like
crime. it fails signally to accomplish
its purpose. I don't think that
anyone will contend that any more
murders in the states that have
abolished capital punishment than
in states where the. death penalty
is retained. Experience shows and
penologistss are quite agreed that
as lettering influence this form
of punishment is without effect.
AS general proposition, the
higher. estimate community places
on human, life the fewer will be the
homicides and our effort should be
to raise the estimate rather than to
lower it.. Murder is bad enough
without making it worse by taking
another life. -
If the motive for exacting the
death penalty is vengeance simply
there, CT course, is nothing to argue,
as in this Christian and enlightened
age no one will defend it, IT..
If, as Warden Wolfer says, the ex-
ecution of a murderer does rot have
a deterrent effect upon others, there
IS little ground left for an argument
in favor of hanging. In handling a
criminal, society ought to do so in
the way most beneficial to society.
To choke the life out of murderer
means the quick removal of an un-
desirable citizen but society has
gained nothing by the operation
that could not be gained by life
Imprisonment and in the case of
imprisonment society gains because
the criminal spends his days in toll
which Indirectly means a benefit to
the public. A man can make lot
of binding Irvine or a good many
pairs of shoes if he keeps at it
every day for forty or fifty years.
Of course there IS the old areu-
ment that life imprisonment does
not mean life Imprisonment, and
perhaps it is true that the pardoning
power has been used too freely.
Still we are not ready to admit
that this is ture. 1t is likely that
very large percentage of murderers
sentenced to prison for life never
regain their liberty. Whenever a
murderer is pardoned the details are
given utmost publicity by the news.
papers and because of this the public
probably has formed the erroneous
impression that no matter how great
the crime, he'll get out some time"

The Fearsome Triceratops,

The Fearsone Triceratops.
A terrible looking beast, but interest
ing, as it was the last Of the great land
reptiles, is the triceratops. 1t had a
head like rhinoceros; but. unlike the
rhinoceros Of today. it carried three
formidable horns upon it's face and a
collar Of spikes or spines around it's
neck. Skulls of this creature which
have been unearthed measure seven
feet and more in length. The animal
had total length of some twenty five
feet. 1t is the opinion of Professor
Marsh, great authority on prehistoric
beasts. that we have here a dinosaur
trying to- become mammal. 1t is
the opinion Of this expert, too, that
the creature got too specialized" and
therefore died out-the usual end of

conclusion that nothing had been
shown to affect Lorimer's right to a

Not one of the army OF witnesses, he
said, had testified to anything tending

Bailey said that while he did not
concede that any legislators had been
corrupt, If there were seven cases of
bribery, as claimed, it would not af-

CHAOS NOW RE|GNS

PERKINS DECLARES
Former Confidant of Morgan
,Blames Uncertainty of
Anti Trust Law.

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 4-Asserting
that chaos now exists in the business
world as q result Of the uncertainty of
corporations, as to the legal definition
of the Sherman Antitrust Law, and
scoring Congress for its failure to out
line the exact scope of that instrument,
George w. Perkins, former confidant of
]. p. Morgan, today, before the Detroit
Board Of Commerce, urged the selection
OF a Congressional commission to devise
a law which shall exactly regulate the
Interstate business of the big corpara-
tions.
The question is a great moral one"
he said. Many people in this country
firmly believe that through the granting
of special privileges in various ways,
huge fortunes have been dishonesty
and unfairly amassed They see in the
Sherman law an attempt on the part
of our national legislative body to strike
law goes toward accomplishing that
purpose, every honest man will say
amen. enforce it to the letter
"But experience has shown that to
enforce this law as II stands, means to
throttle business.
Mr. Perkins suggested that corpora
lions submit at stated intervals, state
ments of the operation Of their bust
ness, capitalization, etc, 80 that the
ployed, to the consumer and the IN
vestor, that the statements these men
are making are complete and honest"
Perkins denied that the Republican
party has carried out the trust pro-
gram in its platform Of 1908.
