contempt" BY Publication.
From the Brooklyn Eagl,


The publication of cartoons. editorials
and news on a case pending in
court has led to the filming OF the Toledo
News-Bee, $500 and the writer $500, by
Judge John NJ. Killits of the federal court
of that district. The action of the judge Is
In direct defiance of American principles
of jurisprudence, the right to comment on
pending cases always having been sue
cessfuliy insisted on by the American
press. The law in England is different.
We venture the guess hat the fines will
never be paid, and that the higher United
States courts will not risk at this or any
other time that sort OF assault on the free
dom of the press guaranteed by the Unit
ed States constitution.
h correct American view was taken
only a few months & by Judge Ander-
son of the federal judiciary In Indianapo-
lis. A newspaper had made III of a
grand jury investigation in a state court.
The Judge of that court had had the pub
Usher and the writer arrested for con
tempt" Judge Anderson granted a writ
of habeas corpus, sustained the writ. dis
charged the prisoners. and notified the
state. Judge that he would hear from him
IL he took any further action. No further
action was taken, and the rights OF Ameri-
cans were thus indicated by the national
Authority.
Courts have enough to do in trying
cases. Judges may as we'll abstain from
attempting to edit newspapers. II they
were ever to succeed in such usurpation
nobody would read the newspapers.

PART OF THE TRUTH COMES OUT

Eric was ~ years old when his aunt,
In a fit of annoyance, brought on by
his throwing a stone at the fleeing tor
mentor, Chetwynd. told him that his
father was a murderer, and that he
was likely to become one himself un-
less he mended his ways.
1t was the first he knew of that
tragic episode in the life of his blithe
father. The blow was so crushing that
he was a long time in coming to he
full realization of its force. He slunk
off, dazed, bewildered, frightened.
Chetwynd's haunting laugh pursued
him as he made his way blindly
through the yard to the street below.
That was but the beginning. They
had held 1t back as long as it was in
their natures to do so. The great Won
der lies in Ii fact that they refrained
at all. Little Mary was not slow to
observe the sudden change in her
brother. A curious depression, an UNI
accountable sullenness in his manner
knew that there was something in his
mind which he would not reveal to
her.
He was but IL. He possessed not

that he was deprived of all that was
good and noble and decent in the
world. In his small. cropping mind, he
wondered if all the children with whom
he placed knew of the great secret, if
all OF them knew that his father had
killed a man. With furitive eye and q
new purpose, he watched their faces
for signs b%etraying the slightest sense
OF aversion toward him. He waited in
a great. hungry suspense for his aunt
to repeat her TRADE. He waited for
fresh aunts from Chetwynd-he even
invited them, with a suhtleness sur

Stolen From Mail Wagon

. Wilmington, DEL, Dec. 25.-
Four hundred thousand dollars
IN stock certificates were stolen
from a registered mail pouch
here late last night while in
transit in a one-horse covered
wagon from the Wilmington
postoffice to the Pennsylvania
Railroad station. The bag con-
tanned stock certificates of the
'Du Pont, Hercules and Atlas
powder companies, General
Motors Company and railroad
companies to the value OF $780,
600, but $350,0OO of the secur-
tiles were subsequently found
hidden in the vehicle.
Albert Johnson and Earl John
son. negroes, the drivers of the
wagon, were arrested today.
They are not related. The men
are believed, according to the
police, to be the tools of the
real robbers.
The securities were en- route
to New York. Some of the
stock belongs to the Du Pont
company and the remainder is
the property of brokers in New
York. The postal inspectors
will not divulge the names of
the brokers.
The mail pouch was one of
three in the wagon, the other
two not containing any register
ed matter. 1t is the belief of the
police that the stock not recover
ed can be more readily neg
otiated than that which the
thieves left behind.

of 50 inches, of which 2.S was

northwest and increased in
violence, reaching its 9O.mile in

after carrying off the storm

however, throughout the day,

PROVERBS OF THE JAPANESE
Are n Quaint and Interesting 40
Their Works Of Az That Charm
All People.

1t has been said that the Japa-
nese are rs apt and unique in their
proverbs as they are in their works
Of art. What, for example, could be
more appropriais TO men. in certain
desperate cifcumsfances than this!
"Man may shout when he can no
longer swim?" "While the tongue
works the brain sleeps" is another
saying Of the Japanese, which ex-
presses their contempt for loquacious
persons.
The japanese are quick at repair
tee; their wit is keen and tempered,
and they can often administer per-
feet snub in brief, terse form. In
illustration of this there may be
cited the following instance:
There was being tried in a court
case involving the possession and
ownership Of piece of property.
The litigants were brothers. The
holder, who was clearly not the right
full owner, had assaulted and elected
his brother and was protesting his
right to defend his claim.
The examining magistrate listened
very patiently to him until he closed
with the words, "Even a cur NAV
bark at his own gate" Then the
magistrate said: "Even a cur re-
spects his own kim"
