UP AGAINST A HARD GAME.

The sensational ending of the life of
Lawrence tChippyl Robinson, the west
ern desperate who was being tried for
the murder of a Boston police inspector,
furnishes proof enough that "it's hard
game when you've got to die to beat it.
In other words, the person who follows
the criminal career without let.up is apt
sooner or later to get into a tangled web
from which he cannot release himself.
Murder will ont, is the old saying: and
il generally proves to be true. In this
particular case the young man went far
from the scene of his worst crime and
alleged crimes, from Grand Rapids, Mich,
and thought to establish himself as A
gentleman Of leisure in Boston and to
maintain the pose as long as his ill-got-
ten gains should last; but the long arm
of the law reached over and grasped him
even in the far-away city on the eastern
coast, and to save himself he committed
murder by Staying his would-be captor,
only to be rounded up and held to ac-
count before court of Justice After
the first day of that trial, it must have
appealed to the desperate how hopeless
his fight would most likely prove to be,
and rather than to give his prosecutors
the satisfaction of seeing him convicted
and punished for his crime he took mat
tiers into his own hands and killed him
self BY means which would have been
thought out only by sharp Drained in
dividuaI And keen and well-endowed
mentally was this criminal, Possibly he
might have been a power in his field of
usefulness had he directed those talents
Alright. The Boston police gave him cred
It for being a man OF unusual mental
attainment for one who had stopped so
low in the social order; and his resource
fulness in nefarious work itself stamped
him as man Of considerable capacity.
But it all came TO naught. He went up
against "hard game" as he wrote in
his last moments, and he had to die to
beat the game. Other people who have
been stepped in crime tell the same
story; it is the most unsatisfactory kind
Of existence. they agree. albeit for the
time being filed with excitement.

social correspondence was part testimony
to these facts. Characteristic OF large
natures, she included the young in her
patronage, and herself never grew old.
A most companionable woman, her
friends, Younger or older, liked TO be
with her. and even her sympathy and
tears were mingled with an irresistible
wit and humor She was sunshine and
she was strength. She loved the things
of this universe in all nature, animate or
inanimate, beautiful and useful, and TO
her. God was present in them. A won
an of Christian faith, she loved the Heav-

her interest in worldwide missions. IL

NEW YORK. June 17.-On the
whole. today's stock market was du-
plicate of yesterdays. In Europe. the
markets again moved favorably Brit
ish consols advancing nearly % point,
on the more cheerful view Of thcrloon-
don and Paris political situation. But
prices opened uncertain on our stock
exchange and moved down fractional
ly in another five hours Of dull trad
ing.
AS usual, reports that the rate de-
cision would not be given out today,
had the effect of checking business.
No more gold was engaged today for
Europe; prospective shippers are
waiting for the next fast steamers.
The days routine trade news was OF
varied sort. From the crop coun-
try, favorable reports continued to
come in: this time affecting corn as
we'll as wheat. Chicago dispatches
threw some interesting light on the
question of demand in relation to
supply, by an estimate that the i'm
port requirements OF wheat by France
this season will be the largest in ten
years. In the same connection the
governments report on agricultural
exports from the United States in
May showed up rather unexpectedly
well. In the Iron Ages weekly re-
view of steel trade conditions. the
steady though gradual expansion OF
activity, is once more recognized.

Trust and, Savings bank could be re-
open I'd, Attorney General Lncey stat
ed that he would leave tonight for
Chicago to file proceedings for the ap-
pointment Of receiver for the closed

Later the attorney general asked

Papers in Case Of Fl. Madison W. IT.
Madison Water Company, Are
Filed With Deputy
Clerk Here.
FOLLOWS COURT RULING
Judge Hamilton Denied Application
For Removal But Attorneys
File Transcript
Anyway.

Papers in the case of the city OF
Fort Madison against the Fort Madi.
son Water Works company nave been
filed with Frank Wahlgren, deputy
clerk of the United States court here,
by George B. Stewart, attorney for
the Water Works company. The
company is seeking to have the case
brought in the federal court. Judge
Hamilton of the district court held
yesterday that It should not be trans
ferred to the federal court. This
action shows that the company will 60
ahead vita the case in the federal
court unless it is remanded by fed
eral judge.
Attorney Stewar. for the company
has fled a transcript Of the proceed
ings in the case in the federal court
here It will be In the province OF the
federal Judge to say whether or not
the case shall be tried in the federal
court when 1t is brought 20 trial.
The case grows out of the fight
which the citizens Of Fort Madison
are waging against the company in an
endeavor to get better water They
are claiming that the water is impure
and for that reason are bringing in
junction suits against the company.
In refusing to grant the removal tc
the federal court, Judge Hamilton
holds that at is usual in doubtful
case for the state court to order re
moval, yet in a case such as this
where 1t appears from the petition
itself that the furnishing of pure
wholesome water to a community Is
demanded, the court need not take
judicial notice of the present situation
in this city, but could state that a
failure in this respect would be q
menace 20 the health Of any commun
ity, and no action of this court vii
be taken which would delay the re
moval- of every possible obstacle t,
the health OF the community. and
feel it is my duty, in passing upoI
this question to resolve the doub., !
any there be, in favor Of the plaintiff
in this action"
A motion to strike was filed in tn
Lee county court by Attorney Stewar
for the reason that the case was tran
ferred to the federal court.
