of the theories that Dick offered the

what is sauce for the goose is sauce
for the gander. 1t is only to you, lit

A Child Killer In Brook lyn.

playing. Their elders watching from
the stoops. without warning high
power automobile sweeps down from
Eighth avenue. runs into little com
pany of four children. kills a three
year-old girl. the others miraculously
escape with cuts and bruises. The
death car flies away, fifty or sixty
miles an hour. Afterward. yielding to
the persuasion of shots, the driver Is
caught afoot. carrying the license plates
which he had stripped or the machine
lie had only driven the car four times
before" the child killing; didn't under
stand the mechanism very well" If he
speaks the truth. 1t il not n palliation,
but frightening of his crime. \
greenhorn has no business In an auto
mobile. Anybody. greenhorn or mere
reckless brute. who drives furiously
through a street of children Is n muir
derer in everything but reconciliation.
If the accounts are correct this fell
low was as cowardly after the killing
as he had been rash before It. He has
been arraigned for manslaughter In
the first degree. He should have a
quick trial and sentence as long as
the law allows. Every decent automo-
bllist Is slow. patient and careful about
children in the streets. To that kind
of man accidents are forgiven because
they are usually caused by childish care
lcssncss. suddenly dashing into the way
of the car and so on. The idiot scoun-
drel who drives furiously among chill
dren merits worse punishment than Is
provided for manslaughter.
