CON SU ELOCUENCIA
VENCIO Al JUEZ

Cuando Strauss comenz6 a hablar
ell juez intento cortarle el hilo de su
peroraci6n, pelo fue en- vano, pues el
REQ paso sobre las interrupciones ju-
diciales con voZ pausada, lenta y
rftmica continu6 su elocuente ora
ci6n, hasta que ell juez Sc vic obli-
gado a permitirle que hablara cuanto
quisiera.
-Senores jurados, comenzo dicien-
do Strauss, e. oficio de ustedes es ad-
ministrar justicia conforme Ia ley y

un hombre...

ciar un discurso, sino para referirnos
los pormenores de su vida, lie inte-
rrumpi6 el juez.
ESQ es precisamente 10 que estoy
hacienda, replied Strauss con toda
calma, y contin6:
La decision de ustedes debe ser
de acuerdo con Ia justicia Y con la
ley, por 10 que casi no hay necesidad
de decir que So debe dar escrupulosa
atenci6n no solo al case, sino tambien
a la persona del acusado, es decir, al
factor cardinal de su vida pasada,
especialmente cuando ustedes tienen
que juzgar en- estos momentos un
hombre que...

A BOlshevik Forecast.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

War between Great Britain and the United States will take place in 1924 according to a prophecy made by Leon Trotzky before the Third Interna- tionae at Moscow.
 The Bolshevik Minister of War the visions he desires to They scarcely will be credited as worth while from any point of view. War between any two nations is conceivable thing. But be- tween England and America by 1924, any other tme progressively becomes less likely the days by. The big of English speaking peoples labor ceaseessy to create that understanding between them which is to assure and prosperity for them and a stabilized civilization for the world.
 With Chamberlain, Bryce, Lloyd George Hughes, Shuts and other powerful statesmen in England, with Harding Hughes Taft, Coolidge Wilson and other strong men of America the plane of inter national endeavor solar the interests of America and England concerned Mir. Trotzkys forecast is not unduly impressive. What he has to say merely is in keeping with all Boshevik efforts to keep alive active propaganda.
 But since MT Trotzky naval nevt- able between the two great capitalist" countries, special interest is directed coming battle. Japan and France are convinced that this is the weapon of the immediate future. England is far ahead of this country in aviation development. Hence the advocates of the fighting seapane who urging upon Congress to develop the air service to the limit should have "a goSd long day in Court. If the aircraft weapon can accomplish half what its enthusiastic friends claim for it, there will be necessity for formal conference between the nations to discuss the question of disarmament They will hustle to do it without discussion

 The fact that the Bald Eagle our na- tonal emblem and one of the largest most unique and most beautiful birds of North America, may be the to go writes Pro lessor w. c. Van Name in Zoology does not appear to be attracting the attention it de- serves. It may well be source of indigna- tion, he adds, that this state of things has been permitted to come to pass The Bald Eagle was formerly common enough to be familiar along both coasts of the United States as well as about the larger lakes and along the larger rivers of the interior. It was until lately really abundant--for an easie-along the coasts of Alaska and Brit 1sh Columbia. The size conspfcuity and beauty of the bird and its lack of watiness as well as its habit of frequentng the set ted districts instead of inaccessible regions made 1t the constant victim of the spirit of vandalism and the prejudice-usually ssun- Iounded-agalnst birds of prey that prevails in this country.
