Youth is of course (?) more capable
to Judge and advise than more ma

able spectacle of the u. S. attempt
ing to teach the older countries of
Europe how to solve problems which
were old to them long before the U.
S. had acquired scarcely any exper-
fence. Really it exceeds the anus
ing stage and borders on the disgust
ing. Never in the worlds history
was there ever more intemperate
piece of class legislation enacted than
that of the passage of the 18th am
endment. Then it is followed up by
bounding the masses about law en-
forcement, while the moneyed class
can have just as much liquor as they
care to spend money for at exhorbi-
tant prices, but the laborer is class
ed as a potential criminal and law
breaker if he even expresses a desire
to have glass of pure beer or light
wine. Then dry organ will sug-

that this theory also applies to liter

solitary dinner. retired to his con.

Switching on the electrics, he un.

His meeting with Inspector Wragge

struck a chord Of memory awaken
ing the liveliest curiosity. He had
already become ohsessed with the
mystery of the skeleton finger. and
when he recognized the ascetic look

Scotland Yard officer whom he had
treated professionally years before.
he at once guessed that he was en-
gagged on the case.
ignoring the clerical disguise, ne
had given Wragge the surprise Of his
life by addressing him by name and
recalling their old relations as medi'
cal adviser and patient. Immediate
~ afterwards he had made amends
by assuming that the inspector was
on duty there and informing him that
a shady. looking individual had just
forced himself upon Sir Dudley Glen

settled down to peruse it. His first

Italians in the poolroom after the
story of the murder came out, in
the papers, pictures included. He
knew them before the night of the
murder. In the cross examination
he said he did not know the names
of the defendants but that he mis-
understood the question on the ex-
animation.
Casper Lottes, a member of the
Madison police force. testified Pol
iceman c. Dreger, who was killed,
had arrested Salvatore diMartini
on the charge of driving car
while intoxicated and so forth.
After the arrest there appeared to
be no malice or threats on the part
Of the defendant. Dreger had made
about 81 arrests while on the force.
Harry Name, superior court re-
porter at Madison, observed diMar
TIM while in court and also the
shotgun which was brought in.
Name did not know what had
happened between the arrest and
the bringing in Of the prisoners.
Louis Dieden, member of the
Milwaukee police department who
has police charge of the Italian
section of the above city, said on
the stand, that he had talk with
di Martini soon after he arrived in
Madison not long after the murder.
He declared he made no threats
and did not strike him. There had
been hints on the part Of the pris-
'oner's attorney that the Italian was
struck by the Milwaukee detective.
Dioden said there was no truth in
it. After arriving in Madison &
ride was made in an automobile to
the Italian quarter in Madison.
When closely questioned the wit
ness said drops of sweat appeared
on the forehead Of the prisoner.

not subject him to such penalties as

While the late Duke of Genoa was
a boy at Harrow he was elected King
of Spain by the Cortes and, though he
was a very popular youth, all the

point of kicking him at every oppor-
tunity, so as to be able to boast in

Fifty francs a month is the amount
given by the city of Paris to its pau

resources, who often have nothing else
for food, clothing and lodging.
These destitute persons are about
the only class whose resources have
not changed since the war. Although
they receive the same sum as before
the war. then it represented about
four times as much purchasing power
as ii does today.
An attempt is being made to get
