SANCTUARY IN ENGLAND.
The Principle Still Survives to Linn

Much water has flowed under Lon
don bridge since the British criminal
could defy the strong arm of the law
by the single expedient of escaping to
the nearest church or hospital and
claiming the protection of the ''Sanctu-
ary," for down to the early Stuart
days Great Britain had thousands of
Just such refugees for the criminal.

scores of towns and cities. where the
man guilty of felony could laugh with
impunity at the officers of law and
Justice for periuh ranging up to
forty days. If within that time he
chose TO 80 before the coroner clothed
in penitence and sarkcloth. and ccn-
fess his guilt. he WAS free to quit the
realm withnnt any hand daring to
stay him.
AlfhnuCh no such ASYLUM exists to-
lay for the criminal the principle of
the sanctuary" still manages to sur
vive. This privilege refers only to
civil offenses end not TO crimes as ic
the olden days. and yet the privileges
are os considerable value.

this most important matter Hartley
made mistake, but no greater mis-
take than the girl who married him.
Anna Blanchard was as prominent
among girls as Fred Hartley was
among men. She was a coed with
Hartley and stood well in her classes.
She was one to look up rather than
down. Bier girl friends remarked that
she would take a prominent place
among women. But q woman is like
ly to be more dependent on her hus-
band for her opportunities than the
husband is on the wife for that stead
fast backing which he is at times sure
to need. When, therefore, the attach
ment between Anna and Fred was no.
ticed all said: That's just the kind of
man Anna needs for husband. She
is fitted TO be the wife of brilliant
man"
1t was love match anyway. Every
one said when the couple were mar
ried that whatever happened they
would be devoted to each other. But

tinue to the end as VILLAGERS" to clap
their hands when the hero and heroine
enter or exit?
Hartley on leaving college accepted
position with large manufacturing
company, where his scientific knowl-
edge was likely to be useful. He mar
ried his fiancee soon after this, and all
was going well with the pair when the
esta bhshment by which Fred was en-
ployed failed. The failure came while
Fred was at work on a machine need
ed in the business which would work
wonders II successful So the young
inventor determined to keep on with
his work independently.
Ten years passed. and the Hartleys
found themselves in a position exactly
the reverse from what had been eS-
pected. Instead of taking high stand
they had taken a low one.
Meanwhile his wife was yearning
for that sphere for which nature had

Primrose For Memory.

The primrose of old was credited
with a medicinal as well as a super
stitious value. Even now In some
country parts decoction of primrose
leaves is supposed to restore a falling
memory, and in 1854, when Culpeper
wrote his London Dispensary." the
primrose was regarded as an almost
universal psnacea. curing 'convulsions,
falling sickness. palsies. ETC." and
strengthening the brain. senses and

Uncle Sam AS a Horse Trader
Uncle Sam, who does nothing by
halves has recently gone into the
horse business on an extensive scale.
At Front Royal, in the bluegrass part
of Virginia, he has started what is
probably the largest horse farm in
the world-a farm of $500 acres, lo-
Gated only a few hours ride from tie
nations capital. He intends this to
be only one of series of such
farms, and to turn out thoroughbreis

To stock this farm August Belmont
made Uncle Sam a gift of his six Z
,est stations, known the racing '
world over. The six of them, when /

When Johnson Camden, millionaire i

KICKS AGAINST
HELLO SERVICE
VONDELEHR WANTS EVERYONE
PRESENT WHEN INVESTIGA-
TON COMMITTEES MEETS.

Councilman Vondelehr. father OF
the proposition to look into the de-
fects in the telephone service. said
last night that while he was in earnest
in his plea that the service was not
giving the public what 1t should, he
could do nothing to improve that SER
vice unless the people who have been
kicking for many weeks and from
time immemorial, came TO his assist
ance.
At the last meeting Of the commit
tee there were no kickers present
Letters were read, and verbal kicks
were recorded, but no citizens showed
up.
officials from the telephone com
pany were on hand to make all eX-
plantations. and they did make expla-
nations These explanations had to be
taken in good faith by the committee,
because there were no others present
to contest them.
Councilman Vondelehr hopes that
on tomorrow evening all citizens who
have kicks with the telephone COM
pany may appear before the commit
tee and tell what they know.
Otherwise said Mr. Nondelehr last
night, we will have TO table the re-
solution, and thereafter those who
have complaints to make against the
telephone service must keep their
complaints to themselves.
