The sentencing 10y Justice CEOrsEY
of the Supreme Court yesterday OF
five Brooklyn Rapid Transit strikers
who had pleaded guilty to manslaugh-
ter for their part in the killing Of
FERDINAND FRIEDMAN in the stree;
car strike last fall is IN occurrence of
more than momentary Importance to
this city.
The strikers were members of Il
large party OF men who having aban-
doned their jobs. sought by threats
and by actual violence to prevent
others from filling their places. The
death Of FRIEDMAN was the direct
outcome Of disordery and Iawless
conduct on their part.
Under such circumstances there is
sometimes sentiment of sympathy
for the accused.
1t is often urged that such crimi-
nails did not mean TO do murder, that
their passions were excited by the la
Dor dispute in which they were en-
gagged, that consequently they ought
not to be held accountable rs other
persons are held accountable
Too often in the past SUCH appeals
nave had an effect The plight OF
prisoners has caused the suffering and
Tia, death of innocent victims to be
forgotten. There has often been !
false standard Of guilt under which
men who killed in company were
treated as if somehow they we're more
deserving Of mitigation of punishment
than men who killed singly.
None Of these factors has been in
fluential in the case Of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit strikers. Their cases
have been Judged on their merits. The
enorlnity of their offence in defyinc
the law and attempting to substitute
the rule Of the mob for orderly gov
eminent has not been minimized.
Thus their punishment Is not u
mere revenge inflicted or them as in
dividuGls. 1t is a solemn notice ami
warning to all men that The state
can and viii maintain public order.
In this way the incidents in the Su-
preme Court In Kings county yester-
day were Of grave concern to all Of
ms. They bring promise Of peace for
good citizens.

A MAN OF MANY TONGUES.
More Than Twelve Languages Learned
by Thirty Years Study.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD. The Co
lumbia prodigy disclaimed al the Thanks
giving Day celebration OF the First Mag
Var Presbyterian Church the ability to
speak twelve languages. He said he has
studied twelve langua ges. but has learned
only ona of them. Spanish. Naturally,
he speaks his mother tongue. English :
this seems to make him the master of
two languages.
The statement was not surprise TO
me. No doubt the younsster must be
very bright and exceptionally clever TO
be able to enter college at the age Of
twelve. but the statement made con-
corning him that nc had mastered
twelve languages at that age was more
than doubtful
1t takes unusually bright infants
about two years before they are able
to speak distinctly. using q vocabulary
OF about thirty or forty words. II re-
quires "A number Of years before Ian

My two children, who were born in

English I am taking them to France
next January; undoubtedly they will
learn French in no time because they
will hear It every day. The fact that
] am linguist and that my wife can
speak four languages does not make it
easier for them to learn foreign
languages.
Young Hardy says he has studied
twelve languages Surely many OF Us

many OF these have we been able to
