WHEN A SENATOR FACES TRIAL

 This sketch of Senator Humbert of France, ex-dishwasher, owner of Le Journal and political leader, now on trial for alleged complicity with Bolo Pasha in treason, is from a Paris cor respondent of the London Times:
 Humbert manages to strike a, note peculiar to himself. In the rough way which can only be expected from a very much selfmade man-he started life as a barman in mean cafe-he meanders through long explanations of his past actions. At one time he is wheedling, 'Ill tell you, colonel. I'll explain that" When he is persuasive his hands wave to and fro in the mars- her of a shopwa1lzer When he is de- liant, words less grammatical than forceful are hurled at the judge. while q finger Of accusation is .pointed at the person he mentions. When he is standing and silent-verysan1 7ru1uxsuI1u

Quotes Mr.. Wilson's Speech.


December 4, 1917, President Wilson
said: The frightful injustice commit
Ted in the course of this war must
not be made good by wishing sit,,l-
allies. The world would not tolerate
the commission of a similar injustice
as reprisal and realignment.
In his message to Congress re-
ferred to in the foregoing paragraph
delivered when he asked that a state
of war be declared to exist between
the United States and Austria hun
gary, President Wilson said: The
wrongs, the very deep wrongs, com
mitted in this war must be rlghteo.
That of course. But they cannot ana
