two assassins.
AS the most deadly wounds were
stabs in the back the police conclud-
ed that the assassin who had worn
the gloves had clutched Otero with
his left hand while he applied his
dagger from behind, and that the
bolder assassin while gashing Otero
in front with his razor inadvertently
cut the gloved hand of his confeder-
ate! The police had now clue
to the assassins. They had only to
find a man with a gashed left hand.
Cut Glove Fitted Wounded Hand.
AS the victim was a Spaniard they
began at once to visit those hotels
and boarding houses to which Span
iards were accustomed to resort in
New York, and they Immediately
picked up Pellicier and Gonzalez.
When Pellicier was taken to the sta
ton house the glove was put on his
hand and the cuts in it were found
to correspond with the cuts in the
fingers of his left hand. The judge
said in his opinion:
''In the light of this evidence, un-
disputed and unexplained, the crime
they committed in darkness is as
clearly open to view as If they had
perpetrated it in the blaze Of the

single illustration Of the searching

AN ABSURD PLAN.

A speaker at "A meeting of the Men
and Religious Forward Movement held
in Boston said there ought to be law
requiring every newspaper that prints
the name OF one man of prominence
who goes wrong 10 publish also the
names Of nine equally prominent men
who do not go wrong.
That would be easy to do. though
we doubt if the nine men would like it
very well, remarks the Duluth Herald.
Under such a law, if John Jones,
merchant. set fire to his place of bust
ness To get the insurance, i'm recording
that fact all the newspapers would
have to print items like these: James
smith. merchant. did not set fire to his
store today James II. Perkins. bank =
or, did not make away with any of the
funds trusted to him today" George
+. Crimson did not commit larceny to-
day" Henry +. Bunkum did not beat
his wife today"
The plan Is. Of course, absurd. II
would accomplish no good purpose. and
II would interest nobody-least of all
those whose names the newspapers
would have to publish as having failed
to commit any crimes.
Newspapers publish news. That's
what they are for. If a man. prominent
or not, commits an offense against the
peace and dignity of the state. that's
news, and IL is published. n nine other
men behave themselves. that's not
news, and SO it is not published. But
NJ one other man does something Of
real value to the public and TO human
kind that's news also and it's news OF
the best kind. There are not many
newspapers that would not vastly pre-
fer printing such news to printing
news Of crime.

PEAT THE COMING FUEL.

Peat the only domestic fuel of the
masses in Ireland from the tradition
al times when the forests of that coun-
try were cleared away. may be used
extensively in the United States few
years hence i'm the opinion of Charles
a. Davis. peat expert of the federal
bureau Of mines who has been making
extensive Investigations into the use
and value Of peat. His work is part Of
the bureaus broad investigation into
the composition.
Heat value and utility Of the various
mineral fuels of the country
The part of this country where peat
Is most abundant are relatively remote
from the coal fields. Mr.. Davis says
in a report on the subject
This is regarded as an important
economic consideration. Comparing
peat with coal the former could be
produced with less danger and much
more cheaply than coal AS a heating
power peat would be more economical.
Two tons of peat doubtless could be
bought for the same price as one ton
of coal and even the best Goals do not
have twice the heating value. pound
for pound. Of good fuel peat"
Mr.. Davis estimates that the peat of
the country is worth about $4,000.
100000. Peat of various grades, he
adds. may be used for many purposes
other than fuel. Paper can be made of
1t, fabrics. dye stuffs. tanning mater
ials, packing materials and fertilizer

The anti Osborn newspapers TO the
contrary Notwithstanding none Of Gov
ernor Osborn's friends had any idea
last week Of asking the state central
committee to take any action that
would project him into the arena OF
national politics. Governor Osborn has
not sought endorsement for the vice
presidential nomination, nor has he i'm
any manner sought to receive a compli-
mentary vote for president. 1t is true
that certain newspapers and certain of
his friends have endeavored 90 put him
forward for one or the other Of these
honors. but he himself has displayed
little interest in the matter. There
was some talk last week, aud some de-
sultory effort 10 gain an expression of
the state central committee i'm favor
of the nomination OF Col Roosevelt for
president. but IL was given up when
the sentiment was found TO be generally
in favor Of keeping hands off.
