The foregoing is reputed to be the
fourth confession that DR.. Arthur War
rem Waite has made-this one, it is
claimed, to his own attorney.
As Waite himself has said, no confess
sion from him is necessary to establish
his motive.
He had only to be patient for a few
years and all the money he hoped to get
by killing two old people whom he had
nothing whatever against, would have
been his.
BUT, he wanted the money IN A HUR-
RY.
Society knows the same brand Of
greed that prompted Waite's awful
crimes. Y
Society is full Of DR.. Arthur " arren
Waites, the only difference in theircrimes
being in the manner of killing.
Let's arraign the whisky maker and
hear his confession:
Eyes, | did it. | fed the poor devils

ways of making fortune, ! know, but
there is big profit in making whisky.

That's my confession, too, adds the
brewer.
"And NINE" adds the wholesaler.
''And mine," adds the retailer.

Perry's recital was the lecture fea-
ture, which he originated and which
has proven such a success that many
pianists have adopted it, His program
was given to a large audience COM
posed of most critical musicians. He
played with fire and brilliancy, but the

THE GREENBACK is SAVED.

From 'purplebacks" and from red
backs" the country has been saved
Greenbacks will continue to hold their
metaphorical significance. All this
comes about through the grace of Ger
many and Great Britain, permitting to
be shipped to the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing in Washington enough
dry colors to enable that plant to con-
tinue to turn out money for some time
to come.
When Ebenezer ]. Hill, congressman
from Connecticut, warned the House
of Representatives that we soon would
not have enough dyes to color our
flags unless the industry in this coun-
try were protected, it was thought he
was dealing in highly figurative lam
guage. But in view of the money sit
uation he may have been right. The
cost of theatre going, at least to Geo.
M. Cohan shows, will be increased. G.
A. R. parades will be seriously threat
ened, and interior decorations will
have to be materially altered.
Amusing as the subject may seem,
and ludicrous as is treating with =
nation with which we have serious
differences to get colors for our paper
money, the incident illustrates our
national negligence in not doing things
for ourselves tina. we should be doing.
