FEATURES OF BERGDoLL CASE.

The congressional committee investi-
eating the mysterious escape of Ber-
doll, who has achieved international
notoriety as the most successful draft
dodger in Europe or America, has not
yet gotten to the bottom Of that ro-
nance of gold and trickery. But it has
brought out some points not hitherto
known by the general public. One of
them is the name of the official directly
responsible for allowing Bergdon to
leave the army prison on his alleged
treasure hunt. Maj. Gen. Peter c. Har-
ris, adjutant general of the army, ad-
mits that he signed the order which
gave Bergdoll his chance to escape. We
do not know whether Gen. Harris is of
a particularly confiding and trustful
nature generally. but he seems to have
been so in this instance. Perhaps it
was a case of hypnotism, for he appears
to have been swept away by the eio-
quent pleadings of Samuel T. Ansell,
one of Berdoll's attorneys and former
acting Judge advocate general in the
army. Doubtless Gen Harris had great
confidence in Mr.. Ansells Judgment,
and this may partially excuse him for
entertaining what now seems a very
preposterous Observation-Disclosures

JUST FOLKS
by Edgar A. Guest
WORRY.

The way TO worry when you Hce
That things are not as they should be,
Is just to work with all your might
To make the troubles end all right.
The way to worry. is to so
And hustle for the coin you owe
You'll never get IL sitting down
And putting on a gloomy frown.
Wher YOU are In the depth Of care.
The way 10 worry then and there
Is just to stir yourself about
And find the means of getting out
When plans you've made arc apt TO fail,
1t will not help at all to wall;
There's only one thing then to do.
And that's TO see the trial through.
All men must worry, but the wise
EXPRESS their fear in actions guise.
When worry comes to earnest men4
They win by working harder then.

/, MAKE ELECTIONS HONEST.

Following the decision of the United
States Supreme Court in the Newberry
ease, in which the Federal Corrupt Prac-
tices Act is declared unconstitutional,
it is apparent that the whole subject of
throwing adequate safeguards about the
election OF President, Vice President,
Senators and Representatives in Con-
gress demandsN the careful attention of
Congress and the enactment of proper
legislation.
With each recurring presidential elec-
ton a hue and cry are raised about
campaign contributions, and opposing
parties Ahurl at each other charges of
the improper .use of money to influence
the electorate Evidence of
partisan inconsistency is shown in the
fact that, even while this uproar over
campaign funds is going on, agents Of
all parties are securing the country
seeking contTibutions.--Wa ashington

LINDSAY KEPT THE FAITH.

Several years ago one of the wards
OF Judge Lindsays court in Denver
confided in. him. nfter the Judge had
solemnly promised that he would hold
tho secret as inviolate as though It had
been given In tho confessional. Some
time later. in tho course of the trial OF
an adult. a superior judge attempted to
make Lindsay violate his word given
TO the Ind Lindsay refused to "snitch,"
as the boys brought before his court
would have termed such an act. Lind
say was then ordered to pay q $500
fine for contempt OF court, or else go
to Jail for year.
Lindsay fought the care for more
than five years. lie declared that he
had demonstrated that In practice the
Superior Court was wrong. Neverthe-
less. tho case was finally decided against
him. He had to pay or go TO Jail. Day

Lindsay may have been technically
guilty of contempt OF court. but he Ger
tainly was not guilty or contempt OF
confidence placed in him by a child. Is
there any wonder that he has such n
powerful influence over all children who
come under his observation? They
know that he will keep the faith and
play the game sauarely with them.

COLD MAY Ia, 4s YEARS AGO.

Those Of us who pay passing atten-
ton to the vagaries of weather. and
are more or less fretted at The abnormal
conditions such as we have had here
in the frosts late in April of this year.
or the cold of the past day or two, are
prone to insist that the seasons are
changing; or that never before have
we had such untimely unreasonable
cold, or heat, rain or snow, or whatever
it may be. There is. however. ample
evidence to prove that weather has
always been an uncertain factor in our
affairs. especially along the Atlantic
Coast Upon this point we have just
found clipping from local newspaper.
dated May IA. 1873. which gives the
information that there was a heavy
frost the night before just outside the
city limits. and that there were reports
Of ice. in several of the most exposed
places in the adjacent country. mo

haps declaring to one another that this
was the coolest May day ever before

a friend Of Every Evening recalls
that the Fourth of July in the year
1883 was almost as cold as on the May
day quoted. for he declares that people
were forced to haul out their overcoats
and return to winter fannels in order
to be comfortable.
On the other hand. late in December
of 1891 or 1892, the weather was so
warm that people who rode in carriages
went driving without wraps ard were
even then overwarm. The heat wave
however, lasted but few hours. and
during the discussion it provoked the
consensus of opinion that that was the
warmest December day that had ever
beer experienced in this section.
