THE LIVING WAGE.

The concept of living wage
is Il Christian concept based on
the Christian idea of the worth
of the individual. The idea In
It's fullness implies the sacred
ness of the individual.
The idea of living wage bears
no rela ton to productive efficien-
cy. The idea of productive eff
cheney means that the aim and
end of life is production.
What we mean by a living
wage is a wage sufficient to en-
able the individual to develop
his faculties to a reasonable eX-
tent at least. 1t means he must
have sufficient food, clothing and
shelter to insure health, and he
must have sufficient of recrea-
ton to enable him to recreate
and get that diversion which is
necessary to growth of mind
and body.
And man can't be expected to
be much Of member of
church If he has only one suit
OF clothes, the same suit in
which he has worked all the
week. perhaps at some disagree
able employment. These are all
included under the head of de-
cent livelihood and should in
clude not only the man himself,
but his wife and children, who
are yet too young to be wage
earners. But to obtain these
things the individual must be
willing to do a reasonable
amount Of work.-Rev. John a.
Ryan, Professor Of Moral The
ology, st. Paul Seminary For
Catholic Clergy.

Present Mode too Short at Both Ends
and Suggestive.
Chicago, Aug. 7.-Longer and wider
skirts, with the waist cut so that the
bosom is not exposed. is the remedy
for the wide criticism now showered
on the attire of girls and women
While the skirt should not be long
enough to strike the sidewalk, it
should be long enough to conceal the
ankles. This is the view of Chicago

Miss Mary F. Ralcomb. president of
the Young Peoples Civic league, IA
vors the longer skirt and higher cut
bodice.
The big cry of annoyance on the
street and in public places from men,
which girls are now making, is largely
due to their foolish mode of dress and
manner" she said. Year by year and
month by month the garb of woman
has been growing shorter and tighter
Now big woman looks awful in the
present style. Only the dumping girl
can wear the costume and her figure is

noyance follows. The skirt should be
long enough to cover the ankles and
at least one-third fuller about the hips
Many skirts are now above high shoe
tops and when the wearer sits down in
public the tight mode forces the skirt
many inches higher The panniers
have not helped much, but they have
accomplished little good in conceal
ing the figure"

Last Actor in Cluverius Murder
Case of Quarter Century Ago Dead

Richmond. Va, Aug 1.-THE burial
in Hollywood cemetery here TO-DAY of
Judge Samuel E. Witt. who died in
Hot Springs. Ark. several days ago.
brings fresh into memory the great
Cluverius tragedy that stirred the
country a quarter of a century ago.
Judge Witt was almost the last figure
in that celebrated case to pass into
the great beyond.
In uakwood cemetery. in the op-
posite end of Richmond from Holly
wood, there is little section contain
simple granite shaft bearing the words
Fannie Lillian Madison" and the
date of her birth and death. Beneath
those other four mounds sleep the
mother, father and two sisters of this
unfortunate girl.
The body of Fannie Lillian Madison
was found in the Richmond reservoir
lake one cold morning in 1856. Less
than a year afterward Thomas Jud-
lawyer, scion of a distins uished Nir-
ginia family, and a cousin of the beau
tiful Miss Madison. was hanged in the
Richmond Jail for her murder. The
tragedy was marked by profound mys-
terry The murder itself. involving the
lives Of two young persons of such
prominence and wide connections. and
the long, sensational and highly dra-
matte trial that followed, gripped pub
lie interest, especially throughout the
south.

Cluverius Went to his death on the
gallows protesting his innocence. but
with smile that displayed courage.
When this great murder tragedy oc-
Cured, Samuel B. Witt. a brilliant
young lawyer. an eloquent debater.
and tremendously popular in Rich

him have been disposed of.
Declares Remedy is on Trial
~ is not SO much whether this man
shall be tried" said Mr. Clayton, who
trled to force an early trial on behalf
OF the house, but the remedy of inn
peachment itself is on trial. Shall we
accentuate the charge often made
that the remedy Of Impeachment is
slow, cumbersome and ineffective? If
you postpone this case until a more
convenient time you may not contri-
butte to the argument that impeach-
ment is an ineffective remedy, but YOU
DO that that is a slow remedy. We
DO not want injustice done. but there
is a public side of this question that
ought not to be ignored"
Mr.. Clayton said were it not for the
gravity of the pending case, the sug-
gestion of October s as the date for
the trial would excite ones risibili-
ties. Mr.. Clayton said he did not be-
lieve the senate would be willing to
come to Washington October is for
the trial, when senators would be re-
quired to return to their homes the
following month to vote.
Referring to the arguments of Mr..
Worthington, that the weather during

ton said: 1T appears to me that

summer resort. 1t looks mighty good
to me, and l would not leave the house

Points in Plea for Time.

Archibald Impeachment Hearing
Will Begin Second Day of Session

Washington, Aug. THE trial of

ate to open Tuesday. December 3, the
second day of the next regular session
Of congress. The postponement of the
number of senators to have an i'm
mediate trial, as desired by the house
Of representatives.
The house managers, who brought
charges of misconduct against Judge
Archibald, demanded that the trial op-

attorney, A. S. Worthington, presented
to the senate a formal request that it
be deferred until October 15, on the
ground that his case could not be pre-
pared before that time.
Decided in Secret Session.
After two hours spent in secret ses-
sion, the senate. by vote of "A to 10.
determined upon the postponement.
Proposals were made in the fight be-
hind closed doors to take the case up
August Is. or November IS, and the
friends Of both of these proposals join
ed in voting against the longer post
ponement.
Those who opposed the postpone
ment Of the case until December were:
democrats. Ashurst. Bacon. Bailey,
Chamberlain, MARITIME. Myers. Pomer-
enc. Reed, Shively, Simmons. Smith
(of Georgia). Stone. Thornton and
Tillman; republicans, Bristow, Clapp.

The majority Of the senate voted for
the postponement because OF the dec
laration by Judge Archibald and his
attorneys that he could not prepare
for a trial in August. Two Of his at
torneys ara i'll and have been unable
to aid In preparing the defense. Mem
bers Of the senate were convinced it
would be impossible to secure a full
attendance of the senate either just
before or just after the elections.
No Longer on the Bench.
Judge Archibald has taken no part
in the proceedings of the commerce
court since the house judiciary COM
mittee first began the preparation Of
the impeachment case against him. ac-
cording to a statement made to the
senate by his attorney. Mr.. WORTH
ington said the accused jurist would
