ANDREE,s FATE.

romance of the Arctic attaches to
the remains of Andree's balloon found
recently in a Siberian forest. The
balloon was In state of collapse. it's
basket was lost and yet it carried a
story which appeals to the highest inn
pulses of the human heart.
The Danish Arctic explorer, Solo
mon A. Andree. conceived the idea,
based on scientific knowledge of air
currents. that the north pole might be
reached by a balloon. BY rising TO a
certain altitude he believed the trade
winds would carry him across the
pole. Accompanied by two scientists.
Strindberg and Fraenkel. he sailed
from Danes island. near Spitzbergen,
July II. 1897, expecting TO cross the
peak of the earth and land somewhere
on the North American continent.
That was seventeen years ago and
nothing was ever seen or heard of the
party until two years later. when one
OF the balloons buOys was found in
Norway. 1t contained a note from
Andree from which it was learned that
the buoy was thrown out eight hours
after his departure. Later in the year
the buoy which was to have been
thrown out at the pole was found
empty off King Charles island, third
was picked up in 1900 and in 1912 a
steamer bound from Spitzbergen to
Fromsoe found a fourth.
THESE buoys with the wreck OF the
balloon found in Siberia are the only
records on which a story of Andree's
daring venture can be based, but ii is
not difficult with the material at hand
TO piece together a pathetic recital of
scientific enthusiasm, adventurous
spirit. personal courage. endurance of
hardships and the final tragedy Where
the bodies of the Adventures sleep
may never be known and. except for
sentimental reasons. is immaterial.
The world has inherited an example of
intrepidity which will not be without
its influence on succeeding genera
tions.

PASSING OF PIONEERS.

This community is being forced in
TO recognition OF the lamentabIe but
Inevitable fact that the ravages of
time are dealing harshly with it by
the removal from it's most intimate
circles those who in their personals
ties represent the achievements and
promises Of the past and the fulfill
ments or the present IN this respect
the losses OF South Bend have been
heavy within the past two decades.
IN the death OF Mrs George Ford is
found another instance Of the disinte-
grafton OF what we may term the orig
inal families OF South Bend. the peo-
pie who laid broad and deep the foun-
dations OF our material growth and
our moral worth as a community. on
which the community has built with
assurance Of permanency and stabil-
ity. Mrs. Ford was the last but one Of
the mem ers Of a representative fam
lily or those sturdy pioneers who began
at the beginning OF things here and
by their intelligence. their industry
and their integrity made possible all
of the progress and prosperity and
moral and intellectual growth that
have followed
she was the daughter OF Mr.. and
Mrs James Oliver. "a man who left
the impress OF his genius and charac-
ter upon the world and woman
whose memory is deeply revered in
the more limited field Co which her
activities were confined. Mrs Ford
inherited from these parents the ster-
ling and lovable qualities OF woman
rood which character d her and
which made her a true representative
or the older generation she succeeded.
Mrs. Ford lived In South Bend p.ac-
tically all her life. she was born in
Mishawaka. but came TO this city
when child and since then ha0 spent
a small portion Of her time elsewhere.
South Bend was a struggling town
when she came here. She saw 1T grow
year by year into a city of some pre-
tensions. and she has been Identified
in feet and Ia spirit with every ele-
mems OF that growth. IT'S public en-

OF her interest and the impetus Of
her aid. Her work was not given pub
licity but there are records and living
witnesses to its efficiency.
A special value attaches to the citi-
zen Of long standing and Acknowledged
worth. whether man or woman. and a
special loss is experienced when a
community is deprived Of such a cit
izen. and so in Mrs. Ford the city has
been deprived OF one whose value by
performance and association is ines
Unable and whose peculiar relation
ship to the place and its people can
not be renewed or replaced. In a
little while. at best we must expect
that the last remnant of our pioL eer

PROTECTION OF CRIMINALS.

In a speech at the annual meeting
of the Illinois Bar association Judge
John b Winslow, chief justice of the
supreme court of Wisconsin, told the
jurists and lawyers assembled before
him that courts help criminals TO es-
cape justice by clinging to the almost
universal legal maxim that no person
shall be compelled TO incriminate
himself, and that the failure Of a de-
PENDANT to take the witness stand shall
not be ground for an inference of
guilt
The law has always zealously guard
Ell the liberty of an accused person.
The presumption of innocence assum-
ed by the law and required of courts
throw the burden of proof upon the
state and give the defendant the ben
eft of every doubt Thus is justice
tempered not only with mercy but also
with indulgence. The most important
witness in the case. the person &C
cused. the one who knows all the facts
and understands the motives from
which any act may have been commit
ted, has the option of taking the wit
ness stand or not and as the prisoner
usually chooses to keep silence the
court has no opportunity to draw in
ferences from the statements or de-
meanor of the defendant
"Extorted confessions" said Judge
Winslow. "are notoriously unreliable,
and I would not compel a defendant
10 answer by any force or undue pres
sure. but I would put him where he
may he questioned. If he prefers not
10 answer the court should be at lib
erty TO draw all natural differences
from his silence" In other words.
il the defendant is guilty or innocent
the state should be able 10 establish il
by his own testimony if possible. cor
roborated by the circumstances and
the statements OF others.
II happens occasionally that an &C
cused person is wrongfully convicted
or wrongfully acquitted. Courts are
d.scredited and judges chagrined by
these perversions of justice and ii is
probable that Justice Winslow ex-
pressed "a widespread sentiment among
judges and members of the bar when
DE advocated greater latitude for
courts in the treatment OF defendants.

Thursday Witnessed the elimination
OF the long effort OF Lincoln highway
enthusiasts 20 initiate a good roads
project in this county. The vote was
gratifyingly large and overwhelming
in It's approval OF the highway. Local
~ the vote and the labOrs preceding it
emanated from a desire 10 boost South
Bend. We want more people TO pass
through South Bend. TO know the city.
enjoy its hospitality and leave with
wholesome impression of the place.
Waving the merely material benefits
OF such visitatiOns, the broader bene-
fits to the city are incalculable.
But while loyal citizens were striv-
ing 10 build for a bigger live city our
provincial police department, with all
the ardor Of Bingville constables, were
arresting automobile tourists with new
cars headed for home, or passing this
way enrOute for the Indianapolis
races. For slight technical alleged
violations Of the law the well-intend-
ing visitors are hailed before a Juvenile
court and taught impressively to avoid
South Bend in the future.
AS arrest followed arrest Thursday
evening, resentment ran high among
citizens in the bushes district The
pin-head policy of a VIGOROUSLY mar
row administration was bearing addi-
tional fruit TO the undoing of the city.
Why try 10 build city; why ap
peal TO the local pride OF men; why
tax ourselves for roads leading to the
city if every visitor is to be met with
a writ and his presence here con-
demned? Many OF the autos come
from states where the license tag
question is still unsettled In trav-
ersing the state they will pass through
villages. towns and cities. but 1t is a
safe bet that even in the most rural
community they will receive no such
treatment as was accorded them in
this city which once was the mecca Of
delighted travellers.
Such infantile conduct prompts the
advice TO dodge South Bend. Those
drivers arrested and many others will
avoid us in the future. The city will
lose their patronage; it is fast losing
its prestige because for a moment a
few wTd-asses are clothed with a brief
authority.
There should be someone in the ad-
ministration or among Mayor Keller's
advisors to inject some common sense
into the police department The re-
sponsibility OF the department seems
so divided between the nominal chief,
Johnnie Kuespert and Tom Reeds
detective agency that It would be un-
just TO try TO fix the blame.
But no group of men have any right
to so grossly antagonize the best in
terests OF the city and as a plague TO
drive the visitor from the door.
Need we be surprised II the auto
mobile journals recommend avoiding
South Bend. and we are known as a
Jay town" among the travelling pub
lie. There is no recall TO relieve the
city from its present unfortunate pre-
dicament. but there should be some
effort among intelligent and public
spirited citizens 20 lessen as much az
possible the injuring Of the city by in
competent servants.

Why they never use women's clothes
in rigging up a scare-crow we don't

scared us.
This counterfeit sentinel is posted
right where crows and other preda-

and be promptly frightened
But we want 10 ask you a question.
In all your life did you ever see a bird
that was really scared away from
good feeding by a scare-crow?
AS a matter Of fact. it would be
very short-sighted farming which
should want to scare the crows away;
for while these night-hued songsters
do take some small toll Of fruits and
grains. they more than pay for 'em by
the insect pests they eat.
Jack crow, however, is a wise old
fowl. He's ION" to make believe. The
only thing he's afraid of is a gun; and
say. maybe he can't spot a gun when
you're trying to draw a bead upon
himl
Now crows, we suppose, don't rea-
son-at least the nature takers say
they don't.
So il must be instinct which informs
them when not TO fear scare-crow
and when to fear a gun.
Don't you wish there was a specially
shop where boastful an presuming
man could buy that kind of instinct =?
