In Pennsylvania not many years ago
dwelt the descendants of an ancient
German settler. The farm had de-

son, and the original customs had been
faithfully adhered to But a youth
was born to the family who had in
spired some Of the modern racial ideas
and was likely to come into conflict
with his fathers stolid conservatism.

plain however, that if no convictions
are secured in Chicago after the sue
cess of prosecutions against large cor
porations engaged in restraint of
trade, there is likely to be return

Dogs That Eat Crabs.

There are crab hunting and crab eat
ing dogs in Brazil. The dogs are half
fox, but they do not seem to care very
much for poultry. They have been
known to turn up their noses at nice
fat pullets and go fishing for crabs in
stead The dogs hunt in packs along
valley, and the crawfish and land crabs
of that region are their especial prey.

"Remorse" and Detection

A wife murderer on the Pacific
coast has followed the example of
Richeson and the McNamaras in con
Tossing his crime. He entered plea
of guilty to the indictment and waiv-
ed his right to trial by jury on the
facts. The group of cases which in
cludes the confession of Beattie is
attributed by some observers to a
wave of remorse' which is sweeping
over the country. But more is proba-
bly, due to the recognized efficiency
of the police machinery for the de-
lection of crime.
That many atrocious murders re-
main insoluble mysteries is an Oft
quoted reproach to the police admins
tration of American cities; yet rela-
lively few murders go unpublished.
Once a murderer is enmeshed in the
net of the law, his escape becomes vir-
tually hopeless. Most homicide trials
are fought by the defense for no 9th
err purpose than to reduce the grade
of guilt. The McNamaras confessed
to escape the death penalty for at
least one Of the brothers. The Richie
son confession has been regarded as
plea for mercy in the hope that the
despicable culprit might be allowed
to linger out his worthless life.
Police organization has been devel-
oped within a century and the work
of the detective systematized within
living memory. Tyrannical rulers
have made their police forces the in
strument of despotic oppression, but
the beneficence of the modern police
organization in a free country is one
of the great advantages of our later
civilization over the stored past
when soldiers maintained such rude
order as existed.
None but the criminal and law
breaker fears the police in our time
An innocent man will sometimes be
found to suffer through false or mis-
taken witnesses. Such was the case
of Andy" 10th who was released last
year from the Western Penitentiary
after serving twenty years for MUIR
der because of a mistaken identifica-
ton of him. On the other hand, Ser
ieant Ballantyne, who defended more
men accused of murder than any 9TH
er English barrister, records in his
"reminiscences" that he never knew
an accused person to be convicted
who ought to have been acquitted on
the evidence.
The chief defect of the administra'
ton of criminal law in America Is the
inordinate delay in visiting punish
ment on the offenders; but the guilty
have come to realize that in a clear
case justice will eventually overtake
and punish them. This knowledge
even more than remorse is impelling
murderers to confess their crimes

The Meat Trust Trial

The Government has reached the
critical point in the criminal prosecu-
ton brought against the members of
the meat trust at Chicago.
The meat trust has differed from
every other such combination in new
err having been incorporated, in hay
ing no holding company" in resting
on no agreement between a group of
corporations, and in not having any
systematic division or pool. Part of
the meat packers are Incorporated
and part remain still individual firms.
They are in the same trade. They
do their work in the same territory
in each of the cities where they re-
ceive cattle and pack them. Their
combination. as has been pointed out
by the Federal Bureau of Corpora
lions, consists solely in personal I'M
derstandings as to the quotation at
which cattle shall be bought and the
price at wnicn meat and meat pro-
ducts shall be sold to the public.
Legal proof of an understanding Of
this kind must necessarily rest either
on the statements of employees, the
testimony of detectivs or letters and
other contemporaneous written docu-
ments which prove the existence of
a combination. Unless these last can
be procured. a conviction becomes ex-
tremely difficult and the Government
has just failed to prove to the salts
Of certain memoranda which were
believed to establish a combination or
agreement in restraint of trade.
Whether adequate proof will be
finally offered or not, now remains

 MELANGE

Estelle Colbert, who plays the part Of The Ysma Yama Girl fin The Three Twins" owes her success to adopting T CAN" as her motto in hte. Last season she was with anoth- CT musical comedy playing minor role. She saw the production of The Three Twins" on matinee day when her company vas not playing. She at once fell in love with the part and after the performance went to the manager of The Three Twins com pany and said "If you ever have a vacancy would like 10 play the part of the Yama Yama G5rl' The man agsr asked her what made her think she could play the part and Miss Col bert replied T don't think l can play the part. l can play it" This made such an impression on the manager of the company that he jotted down the address of Miss Colbert, A few weeks after this her company closed and only a few days after that she received telegram to join the Three Twins" company. The actress play ing the part of the "Yama Yama Girl" was worn out by the exertions required in the part and wanted rest and the manager agreed to give Miss Colbert a chance. She took the chance and was a big hit from the opening night Now she is playing the part even better than the one who originated it. George Ebner, who is playing the leading comedy role was one of the comedy hits with The Time, The Place and The Girl" and as he has many more opportunities in this play he will be a big hit here. The production of The Three Twins this year is entirely new in every re spect, including all new costumes and scenery.
