DELAYED JUSTICE.

While long delayed punishment
tends 10 bring about dissatisfaction on
the part OF the public with criminal
procedure and lessons the prestige Of
the courts, ii is sometimes necessary
to meet the ends Of Justice. 1t is doubt
by concrete example, that there have
been and continues TO be unreaSona bic
delays in the final settlement Of cases
both in the civil and criminal courts.
but numerous examples may be found
where poStpcncmcnt Of final decisions
is safer in order to arrive at proper
solution Of the case. 4 case in point
is that of I. L. Vaughn. convicted Of a
hcinous crime while acting as a
superintendent Of home for girls in
Grccnvillc several years ago. While
not passing on the legal steps taken
to put off his punishment thus far, til,
last step taken in his behalf, that Of
committing him to the asylum for a
thorouh examination as to his sanity
seems to have been the most humane
step to have taken. Abborrent as his
crime was, his execution with the
question Of his sanity unsettled, would
have left stain upon the state and the
officials responsible for it. It is quite
possible that Vaughn Is feignng in
sanity, but that is a matter that ought
not to be left in doubt

Not the Slightest Display Of Fa-

Paris. April 12.-while bringing up
reinforcements to resume their attack
on lie Morte Homme dead Mans
HID, the Germans are trying to recov-
or the ground regained by the French
in Caillette woods and to the north
between Douaumont and Vaux.
The French positions there describe
an arc from point south Of Douau-
mont fort to the center Of the village
Of Vaux and the front is little less
than two miles in length.
For two days the only actions on the
east bank Of the Mouse have been CEN

Of a couple of hours Of heavy Smelling
with suffocating and tear provoking
gas projectiles. ~
After a bombardment with high ex-
plosives lasting hours and the use
Of gas for another hour or two, the
Germans would attack in two columns
simultaneously on two TANKS. There
was no visible dimunition in their
courage and ardor; neither did the
French show the slightest fatigue, and
the consequence is that the unprece-
dented carnage Of the battle Of Verduu
goes on. ,...
Yesterday the whole front. beaten
by gas projectiles, was overhung by
a yellowish cloud Of chlorine vapol
which seemed to be suspended from
the sky. When the cloud lifted the
Germans bounded forward seemingly

only to find that the French hat
abandoned the first line trenches t.
allow the gas cloud to dissipate.
German reinforcements were sent ny
to fortify the trenches but before the,
reached the line the French came bacl
with an irresistible counter-attack and
in a few minutes drove out the Ger.
mans from the few points where they
had penetrated the trenches.
