SPEAKING

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2o.-Declaring
that he has not altered his plans and
that he intends to lecture Whenever
he deems It desirable or necessary,
Secretary. of State Bryan today. issued
the following statement:
This evening is the last of the
Chautauqua lectures for this season.
The total income from the chautau-
qua lectures this year is a little more
than $1,000 The net receipts. after
taking out expenses. are somewhat
over $6,500 The number of whole
weekdays which have been used for
the lectures is, according 10 my recol-
lection, seven. The remainder of the
lectures were delivered at places near
enough to Washington to enable me
to leave here as late as 3 o'clock.
II would not assume that the public
was interested in these details We're
1t not for the fact that the represen-
tativesn of a few of the newspapers
have regarded them as a matter of
great Importance.
The criticism that Has been di-
rected against my lecturing is no
more Dltter Ihan tnal WhlcH 1 NAV e
encountered during other times and
for other things during my connec-
ton with politics No man should
enter public life if he objects to crit
icism, and he can not stay in public
life If he permits criticism to turn
him from doing what he thinks to be
right
HE must decide his duty for him
self, and be answerable to the pub
lie for any mistakes that he snakes. I
regard lecturing as an entirely legiti-
mate field. I lectured before / was
nominated for president. l lectured
between campaigns. / shall continue
to lecture and ! shall not believe that
any person whose opinion is worth
having will think the less of me for
so doing.
This closes the lecture subject for
the present.

FOR LIFE, >
SCHMIDT
Slayer Now Terror Stricken
by His Fear of Death
Chair

NEW YORK. Sept. 2o.-Suddenly
abandoning his air or resignation and
martyrdom, Hans. Schmidt. the sup
posedly mad priest who confessed
numbering Anna Aumuller. declared
in the tombs that he would fight for
his life.
For the first time a look OF terror
came into the prisoners eyes at a
mention of the death chair, and
while exercising in the corridor
schmidt conhded TO fellow pris-
oner:
Il will fight for my life. If Dis
trict Attorney whitman expects, to
get anything out of me he will find
himself up against a stone wall"
However, on account of schmidt's err
ratio mental condition. sudden change
of attitude with revelations of more
ghastly crimes would not surprise the
police.
When Schmidt was asked about a
confession he is alleged to have made
yesterday relative to Euthanasia. he
shrugged his soulders and refused to
talk. One of the beliefs of Schmidts
disordered mind is in the doctrine of
painless death for cripples or persons
who suffer. The police believe that
If Schmidt had not been arrested he
would be dealing in wholesale MUIR
der.
Schmidt intended to make a begin
ming in his dreadful work among the
parishioners of st. Josephs church,
where he was assistant rector In
order to dispose of his victims
Schmidt had stolen a book OF death
certificates from physician, ana
these were to have been forged.

From some of his friends, we
learn that Our old neighbor and fell
low townsman, Robert A. Turner,
editor of The Ellensburg Dawn, of
Ellensburg, Washington, is being
pushed by his friends for postmas-
ter of that city. We have known
him and of him for 40 years and a
more honest or uncorruptible man
was never born on Missouri's soil,
and he as justly deserves a good
position, as he has devoted life
time in publishing papers to bene
fit humanity. He has always been
regarded as a model citizen, and
his character is without spot or
blemish. He has held numerous
positions of honor and trust and at
all times proved true as steel. II
