THE LEDGE IS RIGHT

If during the progress of trial person came into the court room, walked up to the judge and told him he should find the prisoner Of the par guilty, the judge naturally would hold the intruder in contempt.
 But the situation is not greatly dif- rerent If public speakers in city where a trial is being held make similar statements during the progress of a trial.
 ]. Judge Caverly of Chicago, who Is much in the public eye during the hearing of the Leopold and Loep bows in Chicago, Is right in enunciating . threat that such remarks cannot be countenanced by the court during the hearing. It is legal to criticize the sudre after the hearing. but sucn liberties at present can be construed as interference with justice.
 On the other hand, much depends upon the wording used in reference to punishment that a speaker thlnhs should be meted out. For anyone to ray. even in Illinois. that the boys ought to be hanged if they Killed Franks. which in fact they admit do- ing can be construed as merely ex- pressine an opinion. not to the Judse ror with view to influencing him. but to who happens to be listening or to the public. Every judge sitting ,n a ease of murder which has aroused non,,lar indignation must know that the people of the community have orir,ons and are expressing them: hut that fact need not influence ms efforts to provide fair trial, for that is what the tribunal is for.
 In the case of slayers like those on trial in Chicago it is quite com
 o, +o have A definite opinion as to bou they should be punished ana millions of Americans are of the opih-
  ion that the pair should he executed; vet they may be unwilling to stick tc .uch opinions if the evidence brought ont at the bearing actually is Of sort to warrant mitigation of punish ment. A fair hearing for such nurnose. closely following the pre- cents of the state law. will satisfy the fair-minded no matter what then original opinions may have heen'
 There are some who may not agree with the judges rulings, and they may doubt the soundness of the law pro- viding for such 2 hearing: but so long as judges are human and the law If the law they will abide by 1t and VII temper their opinions accordingly.
 It is not believed that Judge Caver Iv desires to shut off discussion Of th' ease in the newspapers. as that man ifestly is impossible. Chicago news papers are not given to handling suei matters gingerly nor with kid gloves and as for newspapers elsewhere. the! will continue discussing the prisoners not necessarily ess court procedure.

TALK ABOUT APE MEN

Scientist Says Anthropoid Apes Have
 Departed Farther From Anceeter
 Than Has Man.
 Toronto, Aug. That the anthro- poid apes have departed farther than man from the skull of the type that was the ancestor of both, was the conclusion advanced today before the British association for the advance ment of science by Dr. c. Hill-Tout.
 "The earlier conceptions which con- stdered man to have evolved from the apes were based upon erroneous com parisons of the skull characters of primitive man with skulls of mature anthropoids, he said, when the comparison should probably have been made with the skulls of imma- ture apes.
 Man himself, recent investigations have shown, retains very closely the skull form of the ancestor common to both man and the apes, while the anthropoids, the apes which most closely resemble man, have departed farthest from this type"
 The Prince of Wales, in a message of greeting to the association, said he was especially interested in the dis cussion of educational training or boys and girls of Great Britain for fife overseas because ''the call of the empire for a wider distribution of the home population is more impera- tive today than at any time in It's history"

 "Frequently the weddings were forced. I had to carry on In order to save my life These. of course' l did not consider binding. Such union was mine with Tokana, queen of the Dakka tribe in Central Australia. l was married to her at the point Of a hundreds spears. .,.

Creep up to the creature I siezed its tail at the same time sending my wisdom tooth home to the hilt. The first leap landed me a quarter of a mile beyond the compound.
