young AL Boyce, with whom his wife
eloped to New York and Winnipeg,

|Snead-Boyce clans are here in force for
the trial
There already have been five violent
deaths directly attributable to the love
of the young Boyce for the beautiful

death occurred when Captain A. G..
Boyce, father of young AL Boyce and
also millionaire business, man of this
city, was shot down m hotel lobby
by John Beal Snead,. with whose wife
young Boyce had eloped.
This killing occurred on January 10,
1912, and was quickly followed by the
murder of Captain ]. r. Snead, father

''TYPHOON' WILL

gelist Allen sticks close to, "Thus

what the Bible has to say and does
not take any time to give his notion

Last night the evangelist's text was

IF you are to be forgiven by Christ
for the wrong you have committed
you will first have to have the forgiy-

must freely from the heart forgive if

the evangelist's theme. The evangel-
list held unfalteringly to his text and
speaking in an unstereotyped fashion
seemed to take his hearers into his
confidence and hold them.
Mr.. Allen states that in his opinion
the meetings held year ago were
a fine fore-runner for the meetings

VIOLENCE IS NO CURE.

There is every indication that thu
was the direct outgrowth of the lega
assassination of Prof. Ferrer by thu
officials of the Spanish monarchy some
three years ago.
The skulking murderer crept upcr
his victim Immediately after a Ferrel
memorial meeting and struck him from
behind. Officialdom Immediately saw
a general uprising against the Spanish
government. OF course officialdom is
always seeing things, but in this case
If it sees rightly, which is very doubt
full, it has only itself to blame.
To understand the situation one
must know something of Professor
Ferrer, who was shot to death by a
squad of the governments soldiery for
no other reason than that he was q
man who thought.
The Professor was neither anarchist,
socialist nor nihilist. He was a demo-
crat, and as such held that the youth
of Spain should have an opportunity
to study philosophy economics, gov
eminent, and the sciences, as the youth
of this nation, for instance, has that
opportunity. He started a modest
school, giving his services to the teach
ing, and about him collected other
scholars who aided in his work of put
ting the truth before the youth of
Spain and letting them choose for
them selves.
His teaching that there was no di-
vine right of kings was like so much
castor oil to the officials of the Span
ish kingdom, and it gagged them, with
the result that after persecution his
school was partially broken up.
This was one of the contributing
causes, probably, although there were
many others, including the then Afri-
can situation, to the revolt which broke
out in 1909 and left Barcelona in a
state of anarchy which the soldiery had
hard work to control. Ferrer was ar
rested, tried for melting rebellion, and

The students at a public institution
of learning are there by the wish OF
the people of the state to pay the

the latest styles Of filtration, not to
teach them how to wear dress suits
with grace, or to lead cotillions, not to
inculcate the proper" in handshakes,
or in hose, but to make good and use

Above all state institutions of learn
ing are not supported by all the tax
payers for the purpose of raising up
a generation which bows to false and
artificial social distinctions.
When the youth of a state is sent to
a university or a college it is enabled

conceive it to be a good investment
of their money to enable those young

Social value doesn't consist in abil-

You can shoot men; you can't kill
truth.
The legal murder of Ferrer did Just
as every other legal murder in the
cause of reaction has done since that
great murder, the Crucifixion.
Ferrer's name became not only a
symbol of the democracy which he had
tried to teach, but every revolutionary
seized upon the tragedy to proclaim
also his theory of government.
And Premier Canalejas paid for the
murder of Ferrer with his own life.
Life was sweet to Canalejas- trusted
by his sovereign, honored, statesman
of great aims and ambitions. But life
was not less sweet to that mild phil
osopher who gave his life in the great
est of all ambitions-that the world
may know the truth-and who fell
by the assassination of might because
he dared to speak it.

rer was alleged to have preached, nor
will violence remedy the evil which
brought Ferrer to his death.

WASHINGTON Nov. IA word o.
caution was dropped by the SUI
preme court of the United States
to the interstate commerce commits
sion against issuing orders based on
it's own opinions rather than upon
the testimony of witnesses.
The court, in speaking through
Justice Holmes, cited the commits
sion's statement that this had been
done when it issued an order re-
curing the Baltimore e Ohio South
western and the Norfolk e Western
company to grant physical connec-
lions in southern Ohio to the Cincin-
natl & Columbus Traction company,
an interurban electric road.
The commission held that the ell
ectric was a lateral branch line of
railroad within the meaning of the
law. but the supreme court sustained
the commerce court in holding that
the electric line appeared to have
been built without regard to the ex-
istence of the steam roads and was
not lateral branch.

however, and his death still remains a


mystery.
Behind this shedding of blood lies
the love of Mrs. Lena B. Snead and AL
Boyce, with alleged i'll treatment Of
Mrs. Snead as an incentive to Boyce
to strive for the physical liberty of
the woman of his choice, and the proud
intolerancy Of Snead for scandal to
actuate him to do murder.
Childhood Love Affair.
To reach the very root of the rivalry
between John Beal Snead and AL Boyce
recalls the school days of the murdered
man and his alleged slayer. At that
time Lena Snyder, later Mrs. John Beal
Snead, was deeply in love with Boyce.
AS the years went by, however, she
became engaged to and married Snead
Two children were born to this union
and the home life of the Sneads was
believed to be ideal by their friends.
In August of 1911, according to the
testimony Of Snead during his first
trial for the murder of the elder Boyce.
his wife fell i'll, and it was then that he
noticed the attentions of young AL
Boyce. Upon one occasion, he said, he
found Boyce holding the hand of his
wife at the side of her sickbed.
The upshot of the situation was that
Mrs. Snead was sent to sanitarium at
Arlington Heights, supposedly suffer-
ing from mental alteration. Here she
received frequent letters from Boyce
and on November 8, 1911, while out
walking with a nurse, she met Boyce
and they 'eloped.
Their first stopping place was New
York Later they went to Winnipeg,
Canada. Here Boyce fought a motion
for his extradition on the score of be-
ing an undesirable, but found thatr
mother love was steadily dragging the
affection of his companion to Amar-
lilo, where she had left her two little
children.
Eventually Mrs. Snead returned to
placed in an asylum through the in
Fluence of her husband. This action
was fought out in the court, however,
and on January 10, 1912, six days be-
'ore she was declared sane by jury,
Captain Boyce was shot by Snead.
Woman Clings to Affinity.
During the trial of her husband Mrs.
5nead, now out of prison, did not take
he stand in his defense, refusing Of
ers said to have totaled thousands of
dollars offered by rich relatives of
snead and clinging tenaciously to her
owe for her affinity. The trial ended |
for the state and the sec

In the meantime Al Boyce had come |
Jack to Texas and it was the written |
ire alleged to have led Snead to seek

correspondence that passed between
