rhesterton Solve the Mystery Of Edwin brood

IF he is dead, says the defense. where is his
corpse?
IF he is alive. says the prosecution. where
is he?
That think, is fair summary of the real
arguments throughout the case, for 1t really Is
obvious that, when you come to think OF 1t,
these two things depend upon those two SUBJ
stances. Is 1t possible for opium to make
person halfcommit murder? Do you believe
that story? Do you believe It was the story?
For again, was 1t possible to persist In the
fact that the disappearance OF the body IS
equal evidence Of the murder? There is, IN
fact, this one thing admitted. That IS the ques-
ton upon which, think, you will have to de-
eide. that I shall leave entirely to you, as TO
whether there is enough of what | may call
uuicklime evidence to warrant a real murder
or enough Of what will call opium evidence
to Justify an imaginary murder
these will be the broad lines upon wnion
you will have to decide. For the rest a.
say you have to be answerable to the highest
conceivable authority as to how you deal WIN
a very fascinating romance. Gentlemen. you
will now retire and consider your verdict
Mr. Shaw am happy to be able to an
nounce to your lordship that, following the
tradition and practice Of most juries, We
arranged our verdict in the luncheon interval.
I should explain that II no doubt presented
itself az a point OF extreme difficulty IN this
case that a man should disappear absolutely
and completely without keeping up any COM
munication with his friends in Cloisterham.
But having seen the society and heard the
conversation Of Cloisterham to-day, we no
longer feel the slightest surprise. Under the
influence of that observation, my lord, the more
extreme characteristic they will allow me to
say so-of this jury we're at first inclined to
find verdict Of not guilty, because there was
absolutely no evidence whatever Of murder
having been committed But on the other
hand the calm and more Judicious members
among us feel that to allow man who had
committed cold-blooded murder, Of which the
victim was his own nephew, to leave the dock
absolutely unpublished was proceeding which
would probably lead to us all being murdered
in our beds; and, accordingly you will be glad
to hear my lord, that the British spirit of mod
Grafton remains and we find the prisoner
guilty of manslaughter. We recommend Him
most earnestly to your lordships mercy, while
at the same time begging your lordship to re-
member that the protection Of the lives of the
community is in your hands, and beg you not
to allow any sentimental consideration to deter
you from applying the law in its utmost rigor.
Counsel asked for the jury to be discharged,
as they had not fulfilled their function prop
ery
Mr.. Shaw-The sooner we are discharged the
better.
The Judge-My decision Is that everybody
here except myself be committed for contempt
of court l am strictly within my powers, and
off you go to prison without any trial what.

The Findings of the Brilliant Literary Court
Called to Enable England's Two Most Famous
Wits to Determine How Charles Dickens
Would Have Ended His Last Unfinished Novel

as, indeed, were all the witnesses and others
in the trial, with the exception Of the jurymen,
who we're in modern dress Testimony of the
witnesses followed closely the dialogue and
suggestions in Dickens's unfinished story,
When the case for til prosecution ended
with the direct assertion that all the evidence
clearly showed the murder Of brood by Jasper,
who had thrown the body into a bed Of lime
TO destroy It, a strange defense was put in.
I'VE are not out" declared the attorney for
the defense. Ito attempt TO dispute in any way
that the prisoner desired the death Of Edwin
brood, nor that he intended to murder him.
nor that he planned to murder him, nor that
he actually attempted to murder r. ', nor, IN
deed, that at one time. and for st,rne time, he
ala believe that he had actually murdered
him."
What they did say. however" he continued
was that no murder took place" They had
every reason to believe that Edwin brood was
still alive. The key Of the story would be
found In the opium habits Of which the prisoner
undoubtedly was victim. II certain that
on the night previously to this murderous as
sault on Edwin Brood he had INDUCED in
gross opium debauchery and because he had
been taking opium, in the midst of the com
mission of his crime, he had one Of those sud-
den seizures to which he was subject and that
under the influence OF OPIUM he failed to
commit the crime, but still believed he had
completed 1t.
At this stage counsel for the defense (Mr
Cunning Waters) referred the Jury to the
documents in the case.
"All our documents have gone" complained
Mr.. Shaw covered with our autographs"
Cross-examining Mr.. Bazzard Zone OF the

him. He has a right to the benefit of the
doubt. The next thing which 1t Is necessary
clearly to distinguish is about the evidence OF
the two principal Witnesses say the two
principal witnesses, because the others we
rather looked upon entertainers. But there
are two very genuine witnesses, one OF Wnom
perjured himself that is to say he would have
done so had we permitted profanity to enter
into these proceedings.
so horrible crime as perjury can only be
committed, imagine, for either very low or
very high motives. Now, the character Of Mr..
Bazzard, as revealed by himself with pictur-
esque clearness in the witness box, appears to
me to be an entertaining and practised, but
shall I say not sanity, character, and it
occurs to me that he might possibly tell lie
out of general amusement for the severe way
in which the world is run. On the other hand.
I think It is admitted of Miss Helena I.andless
(another of the characters IN the unfinished
novel; that, although she would not per1ure
herself or tell lie for money, she might
conceivably do It even against religious and
moral obligations out of some idea Of loyalty
to her brother
"I put 1t to the jury that It is quite possible
THAT both Miss Helena Landless and Bazzard
are lying. But should distinguish between
their motives II I were writing spiritual
treatise. say 1t Is possible in both cases, but
undoubtedly II one is telling the truth the
other Is lying
Then we come to the second broad distinc-
ton, which seems to me to be this: That very
few OF the counsel and very few Of the wit
nesses and dare say very few Of the jury
men, are acquainted with the proper use or the
enjoyment of two substances, one of which is
opium and the other of which Is quicklime.
Most of us, conceive have INDUCED in these
things, IL at all, in great moderation. But any
how, great deal depends upon the operation
of these two things, and 1t appears to me that
upon that point again the whole of this court,
not having called any expert evidence, either
of morphomaniacs or Of persons partially
burned in quicklime-who are, I imagine, Sc
lect class that is difficult to fnd-as the trial
has not called any kind of technical evidence
about the fact of these things, think 1t Is
only my duty to point out to the jury that they
must reserve their judgment and allow wide
space for human ignorance about the facts of
any Of these things.
Il certainly don't know how Quick opium
confuses the mind or how quick quicklime de-
stroys the body, and If the Jury know It, then
in the best traditions of the Bench and the Bar
I command that they dismiss 1t from their
minds.
eve have before two allegations OH the
one side. 1t is alleged by the prosecution that
there is, when all is 'said and done, a very
strong argument for the death of brood, and
that is simply the fact that he did not return
ut is alleged on the other SIDE for the de-
Tense, that you have even stronger argument
against the theory of murder, because again he
did not return even corpse

to Protect Birds from Cruel Fashions Not Yet Won

there were practically laws in the United
States which prohibited the killing of song birds
and birds OF plumage The Audubon Society
set to work to rectify this by an extensive
propaganda of educational literature. Bills
were also drafted and introduced in the various
State legislatures for the purpose of making 1t
absolutely illegal to kill any non-game bird
AS years went by, one State after another
enacted this measure, and the Audubon law
has been adopted in all but eight States in the
Union.
Back in the eighties It was no uncommon
thing to see hats of women in cities with
as many as dozen twenty skins of little
songbrds on them. These birds had been shot
in the woods. fields and gardens throughout
our country.
little later the rage came for the grebe
breast as a millinery adornment Skin col
lectors visited the lakes and tule marshes Of
the West and slaughtered grebes by millions
during the season when they we're engaged in
incubating their eggs and caring for their
young.
Then the craze came for the wings of the
tern and seagulls. The agents of the mlliners
fitted up vessels and cruised along the Atlantic
coast visiting breeding colony after an
other and shooting the birds while in attend
ance on their young. The tern colonies on
Long Island were practically exterminated and
the same was the case of the birds nesting of
the Massachusetts, and New Jersey coasts.
During the seven years of the big killing
which followed 100000 pairs Of wings were
taken from parent birds on the islands lying
in the sounds Of the Carolinas. DIR. William
T. Hornaday, director of the New York Zoolog-
zeal Park is authority for the statement that
the bird-life of Florida was reduced, 70 per cent
In fact the killing went all over the coun-
try until the Audubon laws began to take effect.
Even then there was much violating of the law,
for comparatively few of the States, particu-
larry in the South, had any system or game
wardens to enforce the law.

necessary to employ men to guard the birds
in their breeding colonies, and to-day the Audu-
bon wardens are stationed during the Summer
at practically every important sea-bird nesting
place along the entire Atlantic and Gulf coasts
of the United States, well as about many
