DIPLOMATS IMMUNE

The position of Secretary Lansing is that diplomatic representatives not.~nly are immune from criminal prosecution. but that nothing that may be done by the department of justice in the de- velopment of other cases binds the state department to ask for the withdrawal of any diplomatic officer In the cases also of consuls general and other ac- credited agents of foreign governments, even though they do not enjoy diplo- matic immunity, the attitude of the state department is that there are im- portant questions of policy involved W hich will guide it in deciding whether a recall should be asked for.
 In the case of Captain Boy Ed. Secre- tery Lansing's view is that so far as he is able to judge from the informa- ton in his possession the German naval attache did not violate any law in sup plying funds to obtain coal and pro- visions for belligerent ships at sea, slnce this in itself is not a criminal of . fense The Secretary declined. how ever. to indicate what might be the at titude of the department if it should be proved that Captain Boy Ed had knoweldge of or directed the alleged Justification of manifests and clearance papers.
 Legal proof, however, it was pointed out at the state department, is not necessary in deciding whether the per sonal acceptability of foreign diplo- matic officer is terminated. Action.

TOO MANY LAWS TO ENFORCE

This nation as a whole, and almost
every state in it-this one not ex-
cepted- suffers from too much law
making. Senator Root told the Am
erican Bar Association that in five
years from 1909 to 1913, inclusive,
congress and the state legislatures
passed 62,014 laws. No one knows
how many thousands of laws were in
force before 1909, but the 62,014 new
ones repealed many of those previous
ly in force, and amended many more,
with no end of resulting confusion
Relatively few of the laws are viciou
enough to work direct harm, but hun
dreds of them are harmful indirectly
for they are useless, inconsistent,
and impossible to enforce.

Sorority of War-Makers.

Il do not think that any of you are
ignorant, my friends, that the greatest
wars have taken place on account of
women-the Trojan war on account of
Helen, the plague which took place in
it was on account of Chryseis, and the
war called the Sacred War on account
of TheanO. This war lasted ten years.
The Crissaean war, which also lasted
ten years, was excited on this account,
because the Crissaeans carried off Me-
sisto, the daughter of Pelagon, and the
daughters of Argives as they were re-
turning from the temple
And whole families have been
ruined owing to women for instance,
that of Philip, the father Of Alexander,
was ruined on account of his marriage
with Cleopatra, and Hercules was
ruined by his marriage with Iole"-
By Athenaeus { A. d. 300).

KEPT THE GOOD FLAG FLYING
Patriotic New York Woman Victorious
In Probably Last Struggle of
the Revolution.

What was probably the final strug-
New York city. In this belated con-
hict the American fOrce-One woman
defeated the British force-one Off
Ger in full uniform. The flag Of the
United States was the cause of the
bloodless. but spirited struggle Noon
of November 25, 1888, was the time
set for the evacuation of New York
by the British troops, leaving America
Independent. That morning Mrs. Day.
who lived at the foot of Murray street,
hOisted the new flag of the new ma
ton over her house. Cunningham, the
notorious British provost marshal,
was informed of this display Of the
rebel banner" and rushed to the
scene. Mrs. Day was quietly sweep
ing in front of her house with the flag
futtering overhead when the burly,
red-faced officer, in scarlet uniform
and powdered wig hurried up the
street
WHO raised that rebel flag?"
angrily demanded the officer.
II raised the flag" was the quiet
response.
Pull 1t down" roared the redcoat
On Mrs. Days refusal he seized the
halyards and attempted to lower the
flag. Raising her broom Mrs. Day
belabored the officer so vigorously
that his hat was knocked off and
powder flew in clouds from his wig
under the lusty blows The halyards
stuck, Mrs. Day persisted in her at
tack, and the arrogant provost beat a
retreat leaving the Stars and Stripes
still fying.-American Boy.
