THE EVIDENCE
BY George Munson.

"But law and sentiment are the
same thing" said Rogers, the old cor
poration lawyer. Somebody had been
lamenting the average juryman's in
ability to bring in a verdict upon the
evidence alone. Sentiment is law"
Rogers repeated. 1T is law in its en-
bryonic state, uncrystallized, but
often better law than written codes.
DO any of you remember the
Bright murder trial of the late seven
ties?" he continued, looking round at

his son from his home, because he
preferred the life of a musician to en-
tering his business, and had forbid
den Lorna, his niece and adopted
child, to have anything more to do
with him, under penalty of being dis
inherited also. That was six months
before the murder occurred.
Charles Bright was one of those
cantankerous old men who are cor
daily hated by their neighbors. He
had big estate at Lanark, Md, to
which he retired after having dispos-
ed of the business which he hoped
Howard would inherit, at a price of
two or three hundred thousands.
Among those who hated him most
strongly was Pete Jones, a small
farmer whose lands he had taken
when a mortgage fell due. Jones was.
a violent, and also a crafty character.
He had made no open threat Of vio-
lence, but the old man had been in
sufficient fear of him to have him ar
rested once as vagrant. The charge
fell through, and Jones lived around
the village, doing odd jobs, and cher
ishing burning hatred of old man
Bright.
Nov we come to the murder. On
Thanksgiving eve, 1875, the servants
of the old man were aroused by cry
and the sound of a shot. They ran
out of the house and saw their mas
ter lying dead with a bullet wound
through his head. Some fifty yards
away stood Howard, a rifle in his
hands. He made no resistance and
was arrested and duly committed for
trial.
Some said the rife was still hot,
but others denied this, and anyway
the case seemed so clear that this
question did not figure for much.
There might have been time for the
barrel to cool after the discharge.
What was obvious was that Howard,

WOULD MUzzLE ALI,
Dogs FOR 3 YEARS
Proposition Favored by Ply.
SiCians of Georgia

Savannah, Ga, April 1.-THE con-
duct of the Pasteur Institute under the
state board of health at Atlanta. was
severely criticised at the meeting ot
the State Medical association here yes
terday in discussion started by DR.. !.
G. Deem, of Dawson, who charged that
there were lax methods in the examin-
alton of dogs supposed to be suffering
from rabies, and which were sent Ia
the institute for examination.
He said that there had been num-
Der of children bitten by dogs about
Dawson and that almost invariably the
report would come back from the in
stitute to which the dogs heads were
sent, that they were suffering from
rabies. He said that two men killed
perfectly healthy puppy, sent its
head to the institute, and that prompt
reply came, saying that the dog had
been mad. Several doctors, including
DR.. F. H. Harris, of the state board Z
health, came to the defense of the
Pasteur Institute, and of DIR. C. ).
Greer, who is in charge of it
The result of the discussion was n
decision to ask the next legislature to
pass law muzzling all dogs at large
in the state for the next three years
1t was said that if that were done it
would wipe rabies out in Georgia.
DR.. NJ. A. Clark, of Macon, said ra
bies We're increasing in the state.
Twelve people from Macon are said to
be under treatment as the result of be-
ing bitten by dogs.
Discussion Of the proper methods
of dealing with the criminal insane was
one feature of the afternoon session
of the convention. yesterday. DR.. Z.
M. Green, of the state sanitarium at
Milledgeville, said that many persons
were sent to the asylum who were not
really insane, but who were feigning
insanity to escape punishment for
crimes. He favored separate kinds of
care for the criminal insane and the
non-criminal insane, the former to be
given mild punishment.
