INTEREST ON A FORGED NOTE.

(Tacoma Ledger.)
Those who refuse to abide by the
laws of right living and right thinking
always have to pay and usually pay
with heavy interest A once prominent
lawyer in neighboring city has volun-
teered to the prosecuting attorney the
information that he is forger and has
surrendered himself to the sheriff, pre-
pared to take his punishment. He is
more than $4,000 on the wrong side
of the ledger and without cent with
which to make good. He says high
living did it--that and recklessness in
speculation through which he had hoped
to meet his inordinate expenses.
1t is a pathetic tale he tells Of how
he committed his first crime to secure
money for living expenses; how he
could not meet the forged note when
it became due; now he felt forced to
forge again to shield himself, and then
to plunge into speculation in hope of
making a big enough bunch of money
to help him out. 1t is the old case over
again of the man trying to lift himself
by his bootstraps. 1t is an oft-told
tale; but, somehow, not all men seem
to become as familiar with it as they
ought.
Some who will not learn from the ex.
perience of others must 60 through the
furnace of experience themselves to
larn that forged note must some day
fall due, with interest which the devil
delights to extort. This man has beer
as successful as any could hope to bt
along those lines. He has secured anC

CHIP DEFEATS MURRAY.

San Francisco, July 6.-The most dis
cOuraged and detected young man in
San Francisco today was Billy Murray
of Sacramento, who was knocked cold
in the fifteenth round of scheduled
20-rOund bout at DAILY City Saturday
afternoon by George Chip of Newcastle,
Pa. Murray attributes his defeat to
overconfidence and is anxious for an
other bout with Chip.
Manager Jack Kearns announced to-
day that he intended sending Murray TO
the mountains for a month s rest. 1t is
possible, however, that Murray will
have to undergo an operation on hir
damaged left optic first. 1t first suf-
fered injury in the second bout with Al
Mccoy in New York and the punches
Chip landed on the eye did it little
good. Murray spent most OF yesterday
nursing his battered features and pom
dering over lost opportunities.
Chip was about town yesterday
showing but few marks of battle. Man
ager Jimmy Dime believes that his mar
is more entitled to the middleweight
title than Jimmy Clabby.
"Chip knocked out Murray and that
is more than Clabby ever did, sale
Dime. Murray also bested McCo!

than ever that his Knockout of Chil

The boxing expert of the Evening
News had the following to say of Rit-
chic today;
"Ritchie is in wonderful condition.
His footwork is the fastest l ever saw
and he strikes with the speed of a
snake. His training bouts indicated
that he has a bewildering variety of
blows and he is splendid defensive
and offensive fighter. The general idea
that the American is devoid of punch
is erroneous. His work was revela'
tion to me. Welsh will need all his
cleverness to win.
Welsh remained five to four fa'
vorite in the betting today, but it was
predicted that the fighters would enter
the ring at even money.
The Rev. j. II. Bouniers today agreed
to act as master of ceremonies at the
fight Scores of clergymen filed pro
tests with the bishop OF lslingtoT
against such action.

(St. Louis Globe-D -Democrat.)
People who have entertained alarm
that the progress of the prohibition
movement will deprive them of the
cup that cheers may take more than
an academic interest in theory that
is attractively set forth by the editor
of the New York Medical Times. He
contends that there are certain mental
experiences that are virtually "spree-
eauivalents.v He describes some of
these, using the phraseology which
prohibition workers have made IA
miliar in their assaults on the demon
rum. He talks of sociological de-
bauches" and morbid religious in
toxieation' aud declares that the vic
Tins are affected by the same funda-
mentaI factors that underlie certain
forms of alcoholism. He includes
among the people subject to the at
tacks of psychic unrest the most active
/ temperance propagandists.

whether the same results shall be
procured from spirits OF the grain or
from psychic arrangement. There
will be Il new insistenee on liberty OF
choice of intoxicants. But the psychic
school will have some advantages in
the argument. not the least being the
matter of cost. BY reading a few in
EXPENSIVE tracts and listening to a
few speeches they acquire, at nominal
expense, a "iag' that it would re-

be able to make a formidable array of
