Laws Governing Subscriptions.

Most readers of newspapers are
not familiar with laws governing sub
scriptions. Here are the decisions Of
the United States court on the sub
ject:
Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to the contrary are con-
sidered as wishing to renew their
subscriptions.
IF the subscribers order a discon-
tinuance of their publication the
publisher may continue to send them
until all dues are paid.
"If the subscriber refuses to take
periodicals from the postofice to
which they are directed he is respon-
sible until he has settled the bill and
ordered the paper discontinued.
IF the subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish
er and the papers are sent to his for
mer address, the subscriber is held
responsible.
The courts have held that refus-
ing to take periodicals from the post
office or removing and leaving them
uncalled for is prima facie evidence
Of intention to defraud.
IF subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish
to continue taking it, otherwise the
subscriber is responsible until ex-
press notice with payment of all ar
rearage is sent to the publisher. -

His typewriter's covered and silent,

there
And hammer out copy with vim.
The cigarette stubs that he left in a
Are gone and the table is clean;
But give me the mess that the place
used to show
And the click of his busy machine.
He used to come in with his hat on
his ear
And limp cigarette on his lip,
With a smile that was crooked, and
eye that was clear,
And a tongue that was fluent and
flip.
He'd hang up his coat on the hook
overhead,
Tilt his chair to the proper degree,
Run his hands through his hair,
which was curly and red.
And write like a cyclone set free.
And sometimes, when pegging away,
forget
That he isn't one of US still
And I'll start to say, Jim, got good

He seldom stays long in place;
And yet when he leaves, why, you

CHARLOTTE CORDAY.
Met Death on Guillotine 122 Years
Ago.


among those who had placed faith in
Girondists and their ideals was a
lyoung woman of noble birth of Nor
mandy, Charlotte Corday. When the
mob of Paris rose and drove with in
suit from the convention those who,
in her eyes. were the heroic defend
ers of the universal principles Of
truth and justice, she bitterly resent
ed the wrong that had been done, not
only to the men themselves, but to
that France of which she regarded
them as the true representatives
Owing to Marat's persistent cry for
a dictatorship and for shedding Of
blood. it was he who. in the depart
ments. was accounted especially re-
sponsible both for expulsion of the
Girondists and for the tyranny which
now began to weigh so heavily upon
the whole country as it had long
weighed upon the capital.
Incapable as all then were of COM
pretending the causes which had
brought about the iall of the Giron-
dists, Charlotte Corday imagined that
by putting an end to this mans life
she could also put an end to the sys-
tenn of government which he advocat-
ed. Informing her friends that she
wished to visit England, she left Caen
and travelled in the diligence to
Paris. On her arrival she purchased
a knife, and afterward obtained en-
trance into Marat's mouse on the pre-
text that she brought news which she
desired to communicate to him. She
knew that he would be eager to OBJ
tain intelligence Of the movements Of
the Girondists deputies still in Nor
mandy.
Marat was ill at the time, and in a
bath when Charlotte Corday was ad-
mitted. She gave him the names Of
the deputies who were at Caen. I'm
few days." he said, as he wrote
them hastily down. Il will have
them all guillotined in Paris"
AS she heard those words she
plunged the knife into his body and
killed him on the spot. The cry ut
tered by the murdered man was
heard, and Charlotte, who did not
attempt to escape, was captured and
conveyed to prison amid the muir
murs Of an angry mob. 1t had been.
from the first, her intention to sacri-
flee her life for the cause of her coun-
try, and, glorified in her deed, she
met death with stoieal indifference.
She was guillotined July II, 1898.
II killed one man." she said when
brought before the Revolutionary
court. lin order to save the lives Of
100000 Others"
Marat's murder brought about con-
trary results to those which the wo-
man who ignorantly and rashly had
flung away her life hoped by the
sacrifice to effect. Marat was re-
garded as a martyr by no small por-
tion of the working population OF
Paris. His murder excited indigna-
tion beyond the comparatively nor
row circle of those who took an ac-
tive part in political life, while at the
same time it added a new impulse to
the growing cry for blood-Washing-
ton Post.

London Declares It Is
Difficult to See What

American diplomacy has succeeded in

the submarine campaign is made edt-
tortally by the Post. as well as by the
Telegraph and Daily Mail, all of which
argue along the same lines.
The Post contends that Ambassador
Won Bernstorff is attempting to evade
American demands and declares that
while Great Britain is doing her part
as belligerent to uphold the laws OF
civilized warfare, it is the duty of the
United States to uphold them as the
greatest neutral power. The conclu-
sion is drawn that should America
make concessions to Germany, Amer
lea inevitably will become associated
with the German code of sea war
fare.
The Daily News says it cannot i'm
agine that America will withdraw
from the unequivocal position she as
sumed in the Lusitania note.
The Express fears a new German
intrigue by which an attempt will
be made to hustle" President Wilson
into repeicting the German demands
for the freedom of the seas but is
conndent the majority of the Ameri-
can people will continue sympatheti-
cally TO understand the British posi-
ton.
AT the same time" says the Ex-
press, the British Government must
expect pin pricks from Washington
ana must be ready to defend its case
with discretion and firmness in a.
spirit of sincere friendship"
