SHEEP RAISING AND DOGS.

The Connecticut Sheep Breeders as. sociation is enthusiastic over the pos abilities of sheep raising in this state and New England. They are the very ones to give it a boost and help it along for otherwise who could be ex- pected to do it2 Yet the members who are large raiseEs of sheep dis close the fact that there is money in sheep when properly cared for and declare that where there are ten to- day, hundreds and thousands could be grazed as we'll, 1t is apparent that they are not endeavoring to save the field for themselves.
 There was time when a great many more sheep grazed on tbe hill- sides and meadows of Connecticut than do today and the opinion was held then as 1t IS still held by many that there is money in sheep raising. Just at the present time there is even more opportunities in that particular line, in supplying the demand for wool and fresh meat. The market is al- ways open for both and the one great detriment which stands in the way of taking better advantage of the oppor- tunity is the problem of dogs.
 Dogs which roam the country killing sheep or doing other damage are worthless. They are detriment to their owner, if they have one, and a public nuisance when it comes to the harm which they do other people. With the sheep raising industry clam bring for a chance, and the one ob stacle in the way the worthless dogs. there can be but one decision and that that the dog must so. Such holdup on any other business would not be tolerated for a minute and it ought not to be in this case.

finding. though powerless to do other wise than accept it. Even though sympathy played an important part sight cannot be and should not have been lost of the enormity of the crime. The fact is as Justice AIors- chauser said, There may have been a reasonable doubt as to the degree of crime of defendants guilt, but mur- der is murder. call it by whatever name you will I believed that a verdict against the defendant for nlanslaughter would be found.''
 It is impossible to consider the ver- dict of acquittal in that case with out realizing what effect it is likely to have upon obedience to law and order. The jury by its verdict has practically justified the taking of the young mans life in an unlawful man ner and shown disposition to leniency which can hardly be viewed as the rendering of the proper duty to the state. Even though it may not di- rectly encourage the repetition of such crimes it does absolutely nothing to prevent them. Cleary was justified in getting excited" over the facts lead ing up to the crime, but he was not justified in committing murder.

THE THAw DECISION.

The decision of the United States supreme court should mean an end to so much of the travesty on justice as has been maintained for the past sixteen months by Harry K. Thaw. It can hardly be expected to mean that it will end the endeavors to set him free, for just as long as the Thaw money is available it is to be anti cipated that the circumvention of the law will be attempted.
 Thaw has made hard fight for his freedom since he so cleverly slipped away from Matteawan into Canada and then back into New Hampshire. Every technfcality possible has been taken advantage of to prevent his return to the criminal insane insti- tuition from which he escaped, but he must go back. Whatever weakness has been disclosed in extradition or other laws, the decision is as 1t should be. Thaw, with the money back of him, has been making a tremendous fight to defeat the ends of justice as administered in the state of New York. Because of his wealth he received far more consideration i'll the first place than would have been accorded the average prisoner and he has been malz- ing use of that same agency to be- little the law and it's penalty ever since.
 The unanimous decision of the su- preIne court that he must go back to New York and that the question Of his sanity is for that state to deter mine settles that point should it ever arise again. It has taken some time to go through the various processes of law to the court of last resort, and it has cost well, but New York has only done it's duty. Thaw must go back where he belongs

rHE cHRIsTMAs sPIRIT.

This is the season of the year when the Christmas spirit-the spirit of joy and gladness, charity and kind deeds-should be abroad in the land. It is the time of gift making in rec ognition Of the great gift to the world which the anniversary marks. There are many ways in which the Christ mas spirit Is manifested, but in the hustle of the exchange of presents in order to create greater happiness and joy for those who are especially fa- vored, there should not be forgotten the less fortunate-those in actual need and who are bound to lack in the ordinary course of events the cheering spirit of tho world wide hol- iday.
 Such cases are not so hard to find, if there is the disposition to seek them out They do not stand out prom inently through self-advertisement perhaps, but 1t will be strange indeed if they have not been discovered throughout the year in various ways. Most of them are known to the char itabIe organizations and while such bodies will do their. best to make the day nearer what it should be for those worthy of attention, such opportuni- tieS TOT cduSluS Joy ana SladneSS ought not to be restricted to the lim- tied means of these organizations It is a time for all those who will do good to respond to the full spirit of the season. It doesn't take much to do a good deed, or several Of them, and it is to be realized that it is in such consideration for others that the true spirit of Christmas lies. Unfor- tunately there is usually a greater opportunity than there is response.

The young physician had gone. and his young wife, Pauline, was left alone. ListlesSly she dreamed from one room to the other as she tried to forget her disappointment. She was gowned in a flrny creation of lace and chtffons which she was to have worn to the re- ception given by Mrs Van Allyn, but now that the doctor was called away, on an emergency cases she must re- main at home. The very rooms seemed hateful to her. beautiful as they were, and the clocks, as they measured the seconds, shouted you're alone you're alone" in actual mockery. Why in the world had she married a doctor anyway? she asked herself. There was Harry De Ferris, a good chap, who had been devoted to her in times gone past--he was still bach elor, and he was still waiting for her, he had told her once. It was then that the waters of the river of doubt rose Harry De Ferris was right, she did belong to him, and it was all mis- take that she had married the doctor but it wasn't too late yet. She could fession and he would soon forget her. just as he had forgotten the tiny baby they had had for such short time
 Instinctively she left the library and went upstairs to the little nursery. There were the baby things just as L1CJ 170 OGCA 4OI <IAIAOSL yC<bA- 4AG rattle was left on the floor where 1t had been dropped by baby hands. and the white crib was still waiting for it's tiny occupant. She sank into a chair and gazed 1ongingly at the toys laid here and there. There was also the tiny wardrobe with it's snowy garments and with loving hands she took up a little dress and crushed it to her heart in silent anguish. Why hadn't the baby been spared---or had she been taken just to make life more lonely and the desolation more complete?
 Suddenly the door bell rang. She was sure it was the doctor who had .re- turned rather late. and would still take her to the reception, even if it were long past the hour. Hastily she placed the garments in the wardrobe and hurried downstairs, throwing her ev- ening cloak about herself before going to the door. Her disappointment could not be concealed, when she found it was not her husband.
 You were going out alone, Pauline?" Harry de Ferris asked as he stepped into the hall.
 "No-no--I thought she stam- mered.
 You thought I was the doctor, didn't you? I knew he was out on a case, for met him some time ago. I knew you were expecting to go to Mrs. Van Alyn's reception, and I wondered why he didn't get Dr. Gordon to take his place. I'd make a sacrifice bigger than that for you, Pauline"
 She looked steadily at the speaker,

THE cLEARY VERDICT.

The verdict given by 8 jury in New City, N. T., whereby William V. Cleary was acquitted of the murder of his son-in-law, though tho reIa- tionship was unknown to the accused at the time, has occasioned much un- favorable comment among those who have followed the case from a dis tance. That it was a weak interpre- tation of the law, despite the extenu- ating circumstances, the plea of being in his cups, and uncontrollably ex- cited, must be conceded.
 Such at least has the support of the presiding judge who has since declared his dissatisfaction with the

 The fact is that automobiles are constantly passing trolley cars in the center of the city at high rates of speed, regardless of the safety of pedestrians, and the authorities take no notice of the violation of the law. This means a serious menace of life and limb, and a shocking indifference to the mandate of the state. We are quite aware that many of the auto mobilists of the city realize the grav- ity of the situation and depIore it, but are unable to remedy it. The police can remedy it, and it ought to be rem edied. The speed limit should be en- forced and the rule forbidding smok- ing automobiles should be enforced along with it.
