Public CIamOr Convicted
Becker, Says CarmOdy

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, March. A.
without mentioning any names, II was
understood that Attorney-General
Carmody referred to former Police
Lieutenant Charles Becker in his
speech here last night at the Robert
Emmett commentators dinner, when
he said:
ut is a sad commentary upon our
capacity for self-government to real
re that Judgment can be so perverted,
that passion can become so rampant,
hat reason can be so completely de-
throned, so as to sacrifice the life Of
an American citizen through the hol-
low form of a trial, for the purpose
of appeasing the clamor OF the hour;
vet so it has happened. and what has
happened there and in that case can
happen anywhere or in any other case
"How wisely Our fathers wrought
when they knew this and guarded
gainst 1t by the organization of our
judicial tribunals, so there would be
found, after passion ceases, after
clamor Is quieted, time for calm re-
view of the criminal cases and a place
to which the innocent may go for the
sacred review of hasty judgments and
verdicts not based upon law or facts.

Train Coupling Saves Many

NEW YORK, March 4--The strength
of a single coupling was all that pre-
vented three cars Of a fast-moving
Long Island Railroad train from
plunging to the street. twenty-lv
feet below, late yesterday, as the front
wheels of the fourth car left the rails
and the end of the car swung over the
edge Of the Atlantic avenue vladuct in
Brooklyn. The 100 or more passen-
gers in the car, whose lives with those
of twice as many others in the two
following cars We're imperilled, be-
came panic stricken as the motorman
of the electrically propelled train kept
the power on, dragging the dangling
car for half mile before he sensed
the danger and stopped the tram.
Hundreds Of feet Of the third rail were
torn up and sent hurting to the street
amid vivid electric flames. Three per-
sons on the street We're hit by flying
pieces Of the rail, and one, William
Burnett, twelve years old, may die,

1.-THE WEAKER'S
STRENGTH"
CHAPTER 1,

There was no doubt as to the man
ner in which Sheriff Dan Downing re-
ceived his wound. He had been am
pushed and shot. He was on his way
from his office to his boarding house
I'm the broad glare of noon, when q
pistol shot was heard. Persons who
ran to the sheriff's assistance found
him crumpled up in heap on the
sidewalk. He was gasping with pain
from bullet through the shoulder.
But who did the shooting? Down
ing said he did not know. Those who
had paid particular attention to his
manner made Up their minds he was
lying. 1t was obvious to them that he
was concealing something.
Downings sympathizers carr ed him
to q sleeping chamber adjoining his
office and called in a doctor. Then
they began an investigation. They
learned nothing. The shot, apparent
ly. had been fired from high hedge
about fifty yards from the point where
Downing had fallen. If this was true,
there were no signs to indicate the
identity of the pistol user. There We're
no witnesses to the crime. And
so, for SIX or seven hours, CarnnVlt'e
reveled in a mystery.
CHAPTER III.
Vic Marks, the deputy sheriff. final
w solved the mystery. He had gone
to his room in the Central Hotel TO
get a pair of hunting boots he had
promised to lend Joe Davis, the post -
master. when his attention was at
tracted by the sound of woman
moaning. He listened in astonish-
ment. The means came from the
room next to his. 1t was plain the
woman was in bitter distress. Her
sobs seemed to wrench themselves
from her.
Marks naturally was q sympathetic
man and. incidentally, a bachelor.
For a time he was puzzled as TO just
the proper thing to do. Then his
synpathies decided him. He stepped
out of his own room and quietly
opened the door Of the other.
The sight that met his eyes caused
him to stop stock-stlll. A woman
little more than a g!rl-lay hung
across the bed. She seemed TO nave
abandoned herself to grief. AS ne 10
stood there her ear caught the creak
of the door She turned, anguish ana
terror in her eyes, and sank down on
her knees before him. .r
st killed himi" she moaned. Il
killed him.
CHAPTER III.
Then Marks remembered. So. he
thought, this girl was the mysterious
assailant of Dan Downing. The
deputys professional eye Inspected
her and returned a verdict; not a
criminal why, then, he asked him
self, had she shot Downing? While
the question was flashing through
his mind the girl answered 1t.
Listen" she said. Dan Downing
is my husband. I met him first few
years ago in the little town in In
diana where / was born. he was a
stranger, but my people had lived
there ali their lives. They are good
people. ] was a good girl

to me the day we met. He was suave
and dominating. ] began by admir-

Curtain Calls

Colored wigs have made their adj
vent into the life of Newark, and the
one to win the honor of being the
wearer of the first wig is Miss Mabel
Brownell, of the Brownell Stork Stock
Company. playing at the Orpheum
Theatre. She introduces the new
style, or rather craze in the second
act of THE Time, the Place and the
Girl during a solo. when she appears
with a green couture, brought out
most prominently by the aid of a spot
light
The audience seemed spellbound at
first, but quickly recovered from the
shock" and applauded the creation.
This new craze may become popu-
lar, but its greatest stumbling block
is that it makes the wearer look
much older-and that is something
women shun.
