Religion Of Keeping Cool.

There is a tide in the affairs of men
which, taken at the flood, leads on to
madness; the which, outbreasted, a
man may reach to stiller waters and
more fair content. Thus paraphrasing
and even perverting the meaning of a
master mind, we may easily point a
bunch of morals growing out of Thurs
lays heavy toll OF homicidal and sui
cidal crimes in st. Louis. Husbands
killing their wives before the Mortified
eyes of their children. wives killing
husbands, youth ending its own brief
life In a mortal fear of exposure
these anr other things OF equal hor-
ror within the compass of twenty-fOur
hours-point the moral that people
suffering themselves to float with tides
OF Indulgence in crime. hate. bitter
ness. contentiousness. malice and all
Observation-Disclosures must come to that
place of flood in the tide where res
possibility ends and madness begins.
II may be. as Gov. Charles p. John
son Is quoted as saying. that extremes
OF conjoined heat and humidity had
much to do with this unusual one

"what Fool. These Mortal. Be,

"What Fools These MortaIs Be-"
There are a good many fool people
in the world. When jury rendered
a verdict the other day clearing young
Orpet Of the charge of murder, some
of the women and young girls tried to
throw their arms around his neck and
kiss him. The trial judge had warned
the people in the court room, prev
iously, that when the verdict was read
there should be no demonstration or
expressions of approval or disapprov-
al, whatever might be its terms. De-
spite the verdict of acquittal, Orpet
may or may not have poisoned the
girl. The evidence adduced that he
had won her confidence, trifled with
her affections and betrayed her. She
died from the effects of poison. in the
lonely forest. presumably by her own
hand or with his assistance. and in
either case he was guilty. Had he
possessed as much manhood as a
mouse, he would have married her
of justice, and had he been a real
man. he would have made the best of
the life to follow marriage by remain
ing constant and loyal for the life
time allotted. The college which he
had attended as student. spoke well
when its faculty said: He is unde-
sirable, and 1t would not be to the
credit or dignity of this college to
have him return to it to complete his
studies" The courts condoned, in a
measure. but they could not clear
Orpet from the disgrace he invited.
and for which there was no evidence
to contradict. But. going back to the
FOOLS" there is hardly a desperate
crime committed where the criminal
is incarcerated, If he happens to be
young. good looking or rich, that there
isn't some one foolish enough or frail
enough 20 pass him posies through the
prison gates. 1t is. in 80 cases out of
a hundred, misdirected sympathy and
premium on crime.
