"Slbbed" for Blind Man. i"

A variation of the old story of the
"hlind man. who gees himself robbed
of the pennies tossed into cup in his
extended hand is given by former Re-
preventative Harry Maynard, of Nor
folk.
"rhls actually happened in Norfolk,
said Mr.. Maynard, at the Willard. IA
blind man was standing IN front of
the Monticello Hotel with outstretched
hand, begging for pennies. On his
hat was a sign, q am blind Along
came practical joker, who dipped in
to the extended cup, and instead of de-
po ,itiug money took out aickel.
"Come back here with that money,
exclaimed the beggar. Il saw you take
it,
"You saw me take it?" replied the
joker. Il thought you were blind

A Crime of Society.
Andrew 10th left prison iT Pittsburg
aturaay after q years of confinement

Andrew 10th left prison ir Pittsburg
Saturday after ~ years of confinement
for a crime he did not commit. His at
tltude on leaving Jail was oae of de-
vout gratitude that he was at last
freed aud cleared Ii would not have
been strange if he had been, instead,
embttered by the great sin society
committed against lin. For twenty
years every morning he had hoped for
justice aud every evening bad gone to
his prison cot again wronged and
disappointed man.
10th was not even present when
Michael Quinn was killed in the Ed
gar Thomson steel works twenty
years ago. He was later pointed out as
the murderer by fellow-workmau
who in sulky fit sought that easy
way of "getting even" with him. 1t
was easy TO find out at the time wheth-
er he had been in the mill or not, but
no one took the trouble properly to de-
fend the poor immigrant who knew
no English and had no friends. Socie-
tv was offended by the murder; here
was an accused man; to prison he
went, and stayed until a dying mans
conscience at last revealed the truth.
Such a revelation shakes public faith
in the administration Of justice far
more than the evil delays and mis-
placed leniency of which just COM
plant is heard 1t is the law that I'M
til he is proved guilty an accused man
aust be held innocent. 10th was never
proved guilty; he was 'railroaded;'
and if all the sudden wealth of all the
milllonaires Of P,ttsburg were rolled
upon him in great golden flood 1t
could not right the wrong done him.
His wrong is measureless, limitIess,
irreparable. Allthat Allegheny Coun-
ty can do for 10th is to see to it that
hereafter that the humblest shall get
due justice in its courts

The u. 5. Government in It's "Pure
Food Law does not endorse" or
guarantee" any preparation, as some
manufacturers in their advertisements
would make it appear. In the case of
medicines the law provides that GER
tain drugs shall be mentioned on the
labels, if they are ingredients OF the
preparations. Ely's Cream Balm, the
well-known family remedy for cold in
the head, hay fever and nasal catarrh,
doesn't contain a single injurious drug
SO the makers have simply to punt
the fact that it complies fully with all
the requirements of the law.
