sources when young, he would without a doubt have been a
successful business man, a shrewd and able attorney or he would
have made a worthy and honorable name for himself in any
field he sought to enter. 1t was not heredity that ruined Thaw.
1t was money. Money made him a loafer and an idler. 1t gave
him the wrong point Of view. 1t led him into evil associations.
1t suggested the vices that undermined his character and which
finally led him to murder. Money put him where he is today
and strange enough the same money will IN all probability keep
him there, because it Is the. Haunting of his vast wealth which
has stung the officials to sterner and more vigorous action. The
officials fear the charge that corrupting influence of the Thaw
fortune has reached them and so they go to the extreme in theit
efforts to keep him locked up. Thaw, probably, will never
realize what it was that made him a failure and worse, but the
lesson of it will not be lost to millions of boys in the homes Of

THE NEWEST GAME

Say, said the motorist. we hit a little town up in Iowa
where they certainly combine sport and the public veal. AS W.
rolled up the main street we found it was one of those typical
small towns IN which every store has its fringe Of dry goods
boxes and every box was held down by the regulation town loafer.
Bat the thing that struck us as queer was that each loafer
was doubly armed-a fly swatter IN one hand and a pencil in the
other. Of course we understood that the sw~atthpfiy' crusade
had penetrated even there, but We didn't grasp the idea of the
pencils, especially as every box was decorated with long rows
of marks checked off III rows of fyrs-

II have no desire to appear before

by you, to simplify the procedure IN
civil cases. All the propositions con-
tanned in it are so plain ana simple
that any lawyer of any considerable
experience can readily see their prob
able effect, and I believe that / have
presented in my pamphlet all the argu-
ment that is required in support of the
different propositions.

I'm the legal periodicals that / have
read in the last four five years, in

state bar association 1T appeared that
the subject of simplifying the proceed
ure In our courts was among the prin-
cipal ones engaging the thought of the
leaders of the bar. and that their po-
sition was uniformly to the effect that
the procedure should be made simple
and inexpensive, and thereby much of
the dissatisfaction on the part of a
| large and intelligent portion of our
people Win the courts, ana Win the
laws d<4ay, should be removed. This
subject has hardly been agitated at all
among the lawyers of Indiana, except

Addison c. Harris, of Indianapolis, re-
turned from abroad where he mad serv-
ed as ambassador of the United States
| in Austria, and upon visits to England
had studied the present procedure in
| the courts there, he published an ad-
dress to the Indiana State Bar Asso-

| cedure there against ours. and ad-
vocated a reform in ours.
