Mrs. Lafferty to Mrs. Dolan, as she
paused in her tea drinking to cast a

admired the old stove, polished by
neighborly hands till 1t shone almost
like new.
"'Tis glad l am to be back here

NO BRAND OF CAIN
MURDERER EXHIBITS NO SIGN
OF CRIME.
Superstition Revived at Every Famous
Trial that Criminal In Aspect
Should Conform With Con-
ventIonal Form Of Savagery.

1t is a common superstition, revived
at every famous trial, that the MUIR
derer In aspect and character should
conform accurately with conven-
tional form of savagery. The public,
which takes an increasing interest in
the melodrama Of life and death. is
disappointed at each tragedy because
the criminal does not bear upon his
forehead the brand of Cain. Yet a
little knowledge, a more vivid mem
.ory of the past, might convince the
least imaginative that the murderer
in his hours of ease is most often
kindly amiable and sympathetic gen.
itleman, SO long as his will, at once
violent and infirm. be not thwarted.
The evidence afforded by the New
gate Calendar is uniform and irresist-
ible. Turn to whatever period you will,
there Is the same tale to tell. The
motive and impulse may vary. Men
kill for greed for hate or for the de-
sire to be rid of what seems at the
moment an encumbrance. Their char
acter and temperament seem wholly
detached from the crime which brings
them to the gallows. "Amiable,
"kind-hearted," "good-tempered," zone
of the incest men ever knew"-these
are some Of the tributes paid to Grip
pen by his friends, and they may be
matched over and over again In the
annals of the past.
The murder, then, exhibits no signs
by which we may know him. And 1t
would be remarkable If he did. No
man Is always on parade. We go
through life wearing masks. which
conceal our real features even from
our intimates. If 1t were not so there
would be no more murderers. In a
palace Of truth there Is no place for
crime. A murderer whom we could
recognize at sight would have no
chance of doing his deeds of blood.
But there is another and more subtle
reason for the fact that the ruffian
SO easily escapes notice. Very few
men are bad all through. If we put
aside the human tiger we shall ind
that the murderer Is often as much
surprised as his fellows at his enorm-
iity. He Is suddenly urged by fear
or rage to the commission OF crime
OF which he believed himself incapa-
BILE. Maybe he has never measured
the weakness of his will. Maybe ne
Is constitutionally unable to under-
stand the relation of cause and eff
feet. The result is that his kind
ness" and his humanity" vanish In
an instant, and he proves by pit
iful lack Of self-control that he is no
longer fit for the society of men; that
the gallows are his Just and only goal

Royal salvatlonIst.

The aged Dowager Queen ef Swe-
den Is a patron of the Salvation Army,
which, owing to her support. has had
considerable success in Sweden. AT
one time, short of actual wearing the
uniform, she was an olt-and-out mem
ber of the Salvation Army, and con-
tributed very largely to Its funds.
1t is related that one day she heard
of the army's conversion of blind
woman, and Immediately ordered her
to be brought to court. Queen So
phia is idolized in Sweden for her
simplicity and sincere piety. One has
only to read the poems of her late
husband, King Oscar, to perceive how
Ideally happy she was with him In
her half-century of welded life. In
one Of his verses, describing his first
meeting with her, the king spoke Of
her as IAN angel pure and good"
Their betrothal Ia commemorated by
an inscription carved by King Oscar
on an oak in the Monrepos Park: 20

TO RESIGN
Tells Mayor City Hos
pital Appropriation
Is Inadequate.

DR. James T. Wrightson, chairman
of the hospital committee of the Board
of Health, had a conference with
Mayor Haussling at the Mayors office
this afternoon the outcome of which
set at rest all reports that DR.. Wright
son had resigned from the Board of
Health.
mo, l haven't resigned" said DR..
Wrightson, when asked about his con-
ference with the Mayor. Il told the
Mayor, though, that | intended to re-
sign If we could not get enough money
to run the City Hospital properly. The
Mayor assured me that the city au-
thorities would never let an institution
like the hospital be lacking in funds.
couldn't get any satisfaction from
the finance committee
Mayor Haussling corroborated the
statement that DR.. Wrightson had not
resigned. That the doctor seriously
contemplated the severing of his rela-
tionship with the Board of Health
has been a matter of common report
for several days.
The hospital committee of the Board
of Health asked the finance committee
this year for an appropriation of $172,.
els for the needs of the City Hospital
for the current year. The committee
cut the request to $160,OOO, which IS
$4,000 more than the hospital actually
spent last year
DR.. Wrightson and other members os
the hospital committee went before the
finance committee to plead for a larger
appropriati0p, but both the COMMITTEES
and City Auditor James A. Rowe were
of the opinion that 100000 was sufH-
cient for the running of the hospital
for twelve months.
There will be a meeting of the hos
pital committee at 4;30 o'clock this
afternoon, called at the instance of
Charles A, Talbot, superintendent of
the City Hospital to take up with
the committee the consideration of ex-
penses for the year

TRENTON, Aug At the meeting
of the State Board of Education held
here today a long letter was received
from Mrs. Clara Tindall, who was for
merly employed at the State Deaf
School, in which she informs the board
that she has answered the charges
preferred against her and at the same
time tenders her resignation.
In commenting upon her resignation
Mrs. Tindall says:
Il do not consider the people out
there fit to live among any longer. For
five and half years l have endured
unmerited slander and Insult at the
hands of these people. as both the su-
perintendent and myself knew there
was unwarranted spite and jealousy
! am now accepting a much better po-
sition, where l will not be Obliged to
buy my food or wait two or three
weeks for my pay after it is due"
Referring to the charges that she had
entertained men at the school and that
intoxicating liquor was served Mrs
Tindall claims in her letter that on
October Is last she entertained guests
at the school for two hours only and
she says she proved on the stand at
the recent investigation that intoxicat-
ing drinks were not used by her or her
guests.
