the submission of evidence and
dismiss the jury on account of the
preiudfcial remarks and the ac-
ton of the court while the witness
was testifying, In that the court
construed and stated in the pres
ence of the jury the meaning of
the word, oh, DEAR in the an
swer of the witness wherein he
(the COURT stated: Here is the
proposition: She said oh, dear,
put the gun up She might not
have meant to address it to him.
She might have addressed 1t with
fear.' That is not fair. Gentle
men, you can argue that before
the jury. / don't know"
The judges comment was made
when Thomas testified just at the
close of court Saturday, that Madge
said to Stephenson, in the Pullman
stateroom: ooh, dear, put the gun
up, 1 am afraid of it."
Second Reason
The second reason assigned was
that the judge had invaded the prov.
rights of the defendants to have the
jury determine the construction to
be placed upon answers OF the wit
nesses without comment from the
Judge.
Another reason was as follows.
THAT the court has heretofore
publicly announced from the bench
1t was not the duty of the court, to
resolve any reasonable doubt in
favor of the defendants"
An additional reason was a conten
ton that the judge has no Juris
dlction to hear and try the case as
a special Judge.
The announcement referred to evil
IDENTIFY was one made Friday by
Judge Sparks In which he said,
while the jury was not in the room,
that there were many new points OF
law In this case never before brought
up and he was not obliged to de-
eide all of the doubtful ones in favor
of the defendants.
Meanwhile observers believed that
Stephenson may base his case
largely on the narrow thread OF evi
dence contained in the testimony OF
| Thomas.
After Thomas, on cross.examina
ton, had told Inman what the cir
said after he left the stateroom, In

There is no speech nor language where

That psalm was not written for the men in

not reach into the mind or the heart of man that

Reverend Cotton Mather's promise. 49,.
We leave that kind of advice and consolation
to those that have authority Doubtless it has its
place in the pacifying and carrying on Of the world

This editorial is for the man in this picture OF
whom there are tens Of thousands.
They know vaguely what is the matter with
them. This picture by McCay tells them, not
vaguely at all, but most definitely and TRUTH
FULLY, just what their position is in this world.
Men travel across the ocean and at last find
themselves in hotel high up somewhere on the
Alps. Of such men certain percentage will be
found busily eating as the sun sets in its glory.
Others are looking at the setting sun, postponing
the eating ''.
The man whose mind is concentrated on
money, GETTING it, KEEPING it and getting
MORE, misses gradually all that there is worth
while in life. He thinks that he keeps all his
senses, but he really keeps only the MEMORY Of
them. He doesn't feel as he used to feel either
mentally or physically. t
Once story of poverty touched his heart and
he felt it. Now it makes him say: IF they worked
hard and kept sober they would not be poor"
Once he saw in the rising or setting sun, and
in the sky at night Power that rules this universe,
grandeur that ennobles the lives and increases pos
sibilities of men, Now the night is time of sleep
lessness, worry and scheming. Sunrise and sunset
have no meaning, except that the sunrise begins

Money EARNED or otherwise acquired with
eager prasping indifference all else, makes the
heart cold and crowds out the spirit d.. p.
Thousands of those that have devoted their
lives to mere MONEY getting will testify to the
truth of this, if they know it. "The heart knoweth
his own bitterness"
They know how the seeking for money has
gradually changed their natures
They know how long it is since they nave
looked at sunset or starlit sky with real delight
or felt the thrill of unselfish desire to do good.
Thew know how their minds have become mar
rover, dryer, more and more selfish in grasPng'
craving more eagerly and viciously for that which
less than ever they NEED ..-
cor what shall man give in exchange for his
soul?" It is the soul that FEELS, LIVES, EN-
JOYS, and all that is driven out when avarlclous-
ness, love Of mere money comes in, to possess the
entire mind
A man would be Mortified if you asked him to
exchange the heart in his breast for heart of solid
gold or pure diamond of the same size. But that
man will spend his life gradually exchanging his
SOUL. that alone makes him worth while and hu
man for mass of money that is useless to him.
What happens after death, we do not know.
majority believe that Lazarus, poor man, and pre-
sunably virtuous, went to Heaven in Abraham's
bosom, while Dives stingy rich man, went down

We believe that, but do not KNOW 1T. 1t is a
matter of faith and revelation. But concerning
this picture we KNOW ITS TRUTH.
And the man that knows it best Of all is he who
has devoted his life to mere money getting, who
looks up from his pile he gets old and finds that
the world has no beauty for him, life no charm,
friends no warmth because his soul has long since
walked away and said "Goodby.'

contented those that have little or no money Some

We do not presume to address the rich man OF
our dav in any such terms of authority and disap-
proval But we do say to him: Have common

Life is a hard struggle. TO achieve lnde-
pendence is not easy.
But once man from wreck has safely reached
the shore he does not lie flat his stomach for the
rest of his life and continue to initiate the motlons
of swimming. He says to himself: II am high and
dry and safe now; will enjoy the beautlful eartn
and freedom that have reached"
When man has conquered in the fight for
Independence and has what he needs for himself
and all that have the right to depend upon him,
WHY should he continue the struggle ana De IKE
the man flat on his face with his nose in the dirt
on the ground continuing the swimming motions
no longer needed? Get up run after your soul that
is walking away from you. You can overtake 1t
if you choose.
Whether you believe in an actual burning hell
where an all-merciful Creator Furnishes through all
eternity the fault of the moment and OF weakness,
or whether you believe that the Ruler OF this uni
verse is far above torturing His own creation as
Caliban tortured the migrating crabs, is of no I'M
portance
Divine Providence may torture you hereafter,
but your drying mind, hardening heart and soul
growing cold will punish you NOW.
This is the story of the rich man in the six.
teenth chapter of Luke: ."
And it came to pass, that the beggar
died, and was carried by the angels into Abra-
hams bosom; the rich man also died and was
buried:
"And in hell he Hfteth up his eyes, being
in torments, and Seeth Abraham afar off, and
Lazarus in his bosom.
And he cried and said, Father Abraham
have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he
may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool
nv tongue; for am tormented in this flame.
But Abraham said, Son, remember that
thou in thy lifetime receivedSt thy good
things and likewise Lazarus evil things; but
now he is conforted, and thou art tormented."
Z
Abraham may not say to the rich pork man,
steel or oil man of today, "Son, remember that thou
in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things" But
the man that is only an adding and calculating
machine is Furnishing himself and this is a true
picture. cSsOrni'a 'ssu'.a
