Transparent gowns, shimmering as

Waving aside all objection and !
warnings she again entered the
arena. This time she was to cross
a rickety foot bridge, while from the
off shore the jungle leopard menaced
her. That was the way it was sup
posed to be in the production.
But the second beast had become
infected with the lions rebellion,
which he had witnessed, and sud
denly when the bridge on which
the woman was crossing accidentlly
collapsed, throwing her into the wa
ter, the beast leaped upon Miss Wal
camp where she struggled in the
stream
The leopard misgauged his spring
by an inch or two, but his claws
ripped her forehead and shoulders,
wounding her far more seriously than
had the lion. Again the helpless and
unarmed woman fought for her life
with the animal clawing and tearing
at her. 1t was only the fact that this
struggle took place in waist-deep wa
ter that saved Miss Walcamp's life.
Again the attendants rescued her in
the nick of time and she consented
to call it day, being borne away to.
the hospital, where she slowly recov-
cred.

Helen Holmes $50. Dorothy Phillips
Capt. Holmes and his wife, Helen,
live happily at Fl. Easter. They are
the favorites of the regiment and the
captain takes charge of all entertain
ments of the regiment and is also in
charge of the athletic sports.
A ball is given in honor of Major
Nevins, who has just arrived at the
post. When Helen was mere school
girl she fancied herself in love with
NeVins and wrote him a number of
undated letters. Renewing his &C
quaintance at the ball, Nevins makes
himself decidedly offensive and
taunts her with the letters.
The next night, while Holmes is at
headquarters, Helen receives a letter
from Nevins saying that, if she will
come to his rooms at once he will
give her the letters. Helen goes to
Nevins' apartments and instead of
giving her the letters he taunts her.
Holmes, who has been directed to
deliver an order to Nevins, enters the
house unannounced, the front door
being open. AS he is about to make
his presence known he hears his
wife's voice and listens at the por-
there's. Helen pleads. Nevins insults
her.
A shot comes from behind the por-
there's and Holmes staggers into the
room, his revolver falling to the floor.
Nevins falls dead At the trial, Saka,,
Nevins' Japanese servant, confesses
that he killed Nevins to avenge the
honor of his sister His testimony ex-
plains how the shooting was accom-

 BY JUDGE THOMAS
Another Chapter in Litigation of Dan- bury Hatters' Case ill U. s.
 District Court.

New Haven, March 25.-Another chapter in the litigation in the Dan bury hatters case was written in the United States district court in this city, yesterday, when a motion was made by representatives of the banks Where the savings of a number of the matters are tied up, for re-opening a default on the part of the banks who failed to file pleadings. The banks in question are the South NorwallS and the Norwalk Savings Banks, the Danbury Savings Banks and the Union Savings Bank, Danbury. The original suit was by Loewe & Co.,, against a large number of employees of the hat factories and growing out of a boycott, and the award was for s2S0,00O.
 A demand was made upon the banks for payment of the deposits of $60,000 and $40,000 interest for twelve years by Loewe & Co, but it was refused owing to the question of payment of interest. The case now pending is for instruction to the banks as to what shall be done with the $3O,OOO interest.

 Backed Up by National ASsO.

Hartford, March 25,-Colonel George Pope, of this city. president of the National Association of Manu- facturers has informed President Will son that the, manufacturers of Amer ican support him in his negotiations with the European belligerents. A telegram to that effect was received yesterday at the White House.
 Mir. Pope telegraphed to the presi- dent that all manufacturers were di- rectly or indirectly suffering from the effects of the war, but that many would suffer more should they be prevented from importing supplies through the enforcement of the "se- we're measures with respct to conn merce recently announced by belliger- ent governments" His message fol- lOWS:-
 'As president of the National As sociation of Manufa cturers, the largest national body of manufacturers in the United States l feel called upon to express to you my appreciation of your prompt action and firm attitude with respect to the various orders by the belligerent governments in Eu- rope which affect all neutral com merce and particularly that of this country.
 ''All manufacturers are directly or indirectly suffering from the effects of this lamentable war, and many of them would sustain still more busi- ness loss should they be prevented from securing necessary supplies from abroad through the enforcement of the severe measures with respect to commerce recently announced by belligerent governments"
 "1, therefore, wish to assure you of the sympathy and steady support of this association in your energetic ef- forts to protect the rights of this country as a neutral nation in holding the belligerents on both sides to strict accountability for their actions under a just interpretation of inter- national law"

 Whatever the offense, MT. Osborne would keep the criminal in confine- ment until he was cured" and no longer and in explanation or justifi- cation of his plan, he likens men In prison to patients in a hospital. The latter, in theory, if not in practice, are kept until they are well-or dead no matter what is the matter with them, and on recovering, if they do recover, they are allowed to go. And that is what he would do with crim- inals.
 This is, of course the logical posi- in it's entirety the new view of crim- ina1 conduct and of the nature of in- dividual responsibility therefor, but it is one that conflicts with so many established beliefs and customs that MT. Osborne cannot expect to have it generally accepted much before the millennium arrives, and then there will be no prisons or prisoners at all. For some time to come there will re- main the feeling that crime should be punished and that the fear of punishment deters from its commits sion.

Fresh Air and Sunshine.

 About one thing there can be no doubt--the Creator made enough fresh air and bright sunshine. for every man, woman and child born into the world.
 Fresh air and bright sunshine are absolutely essential to health and happiness. Even a weed needs them, or it withers. Human lives that are deprived of them fade and perish- physically, mentally and morally.
 Mans inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn. Wher- ever fresh air and bright sunshine are denied, it is because of human ignor ance, selfishness, cupidity. Dark and noisome tenements are signs that the civic conscience is decadent. A com- munity that sets wealth above health is inviting the most certain of all dis asters-the Nemesis of outraged na-
