Washisgton and Lincoln. Both were
great men of their day. Wednesday
of this week was the birthday of
George Washington and was observed
throughout the nation. Many tributes
have been paid to this great man but
there is none so eloquent as the one
paid to him by Abraham Lincoln at
Springfield. Ill.,, on his birthday in
1912. His address is as follows:
This is the one hundred and tenth
anniversary OF the birthday Of Wash
ington. We are met here to celebrate
this day. Washington is the might
est name on earth, long since might
est i'll the cause OF civil liberty; still
mightiest in moral reformation. On
that name an culogy is expected 1t
cannot be. TO add brightness to the
sun or glory to the name of Wash
ington is alike impossible.
Let none attempt it. In solemn
awe pronounce the name and in its
naked deathless splendor 4eave it,
Washington" ~...

10000 Professional Criminals in

Chicago. ILL.,. February o.-Chicago
Is tho home of about 10000 profes-
sional criminals, or about one-third OF
per cent of the city's population, ac-
eordimg to estimates of the Chicago
Crime Commission, made public to-
day. The reason for such an unprece-
denied number of law-breakers here is
aseribed by the crime experts to the
slowness with which the wheels of
justice are set - motion and the small
lumber of convictions.
