In q lecture recently on some Alpine
adventures Julian Crande, F. r. G. s.,
said that 95 per cent. of Alpine acci-
dents were due to climbing without a

years apprenticeship before receiving

To Break Up a Cold.

The hydropathic treatment of cold
in the head is more reliable than any
other one which scarcely requires the
aid of a physician. K is as follows:
In the morning after rising and at
night before retiring wash the feet
and legs as high up as the knees IL
cold water. then rub them with a
rough towel and massage them TIL
the skin is red and glowing. In add
ton to this, snuff tepid water up the
nose frequently during the day and sip
with a teaspoon glassful as hot as
can be borne an hour before each
meal and at bedtime. a few days is
often quite sufficient for simple cases
and obstinate ones yield if the treat.
ment is prolonged. No medicines are
required If taken in the first stages
of the disease a cold is broken up
which might otherwise become a Sc
we're case of bronchitis lasting many
days or weeks.

slaughter, He Asserts.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Supreme Court
Justice Joseph Morschauser. at his home
in Poughkeepsie. expressed his disap-
provai of the action of the Rockland
county jury which. in New City, Satur-
day night acquitted William V. Cleary
OF the murder of his eighteen-year-old
son-in-law. Eugene NJ. Newman.
II was not satisfied with the verdict"
Justice Morschauser said. Il had to ac-
cept It, but 1t did not accord with my
views. The jury had the power to rem
der this verdict If 1t believed some OF
the testimony Of some of the witnesses
There may have been a reasonable
doubt as to the degree of the defend
ants guilt, but murder is murder. call
II by whatever name you will. The jury
remained out for more than six hours.
and / believed that a verdict against the
defendant for manslaughter would be
found. That was my view.
Il believe sympathy played a great
part in the case, though l warned the
jury several times not to allow sympa-
thy to influence the verdict. There was
much sentiment in favor Of the defend
ant. 1t seems that some persons lost
sight of the crime itself.
The jury controls the rendering of
the verdict and We are bound by it.
however much II may lack accord with
oui own views. The Jurymen live in
that community and county and are
snswerable to their fellow-citizens and
neighbors. and perhaps they will have
some explaining to do.
If they conscientiously decided the
case according to the evidence and
they believed they rendered a righteous
verdict. that Is all that can be expected
Of them. II they did not it must rest
with themselves individually, and their
responsibility to their God with Ihe
knowledge that they violated their
Oaths
