he's running the club and then he
isn't and all the while followers OF
baseball are guessing whether the
Portland club will be dashed to
pieces on the rocks or continue on
through a successful season.
Tonight Lou Lambert Of Portland
gets chance to timber up his
punches when he climbs into the
ring to fight Billy Hindley, the Brit

fought Jimmy Kid Rice short

1 law must take it's course"
 Let her go so that she may place 1 flowers on the grave of her beloved" pleaded M. Henri Robert, famous law yer, at the close of an impassioned address td the jury. They reached the decision on the first ballot and their verdict was popular.
 | A few days later the police were confronted with similar case. A young girl appeared to say she had shot and killed her invalid sister, 1 who had no chance of recovery and was in great agony. The sufferer asked her sister to use their last money to purchase a revolver and release her from pain.
 Murder is always murder" said Dr. Raoul Blondel, head of the Paris hospitals, in commenting upon the Uminska verdict, in an exclusive in- terview, lat the risk of hurting the feelings of many sensible people who applauded it.
 "The important thing is the lesson of this case" he said "The gesture is not new. We had numerous exam ples of it during the war. On many torpedoed ships, which were sinking, there were heard, according to sur vivors, revolver shots which meant the supreme service between com rades who did not wish to drown. But the very existence of these sur vivors establishes the fact that these gestures were too hasty.
 T would have condemned this wo- man." he said, when the question was put to him, ito the least possible punishment and pardoned her the same evening. would not have been a party to proclaiming that one has the right to commit murder and it seems to me that all doctors must agree with me. A murderer is al ways murderer and only legiti- mate defense ought to excuse him."
 Dr. Blondel thought the harm lay in the manner in which the question is put to the jury He suggested instead of the single direct question of the guilt or innocence of the pris- oner, three questoins be put to the jury: Has the evidence estab- lished beyond doubt that A killed B voluntarily; 2-Was the act pre- meditated? 3-Do there exist reasons for eXcusing the act?
 ''In this way the voluntary mur- derer will always be punished, and his punishment may be made pro- portionate to his culpability, judged from a moral point of view, and the degree of responsibility. But accord

 Sets Bad Example.
 There is sort of regretable tra- dition founded on repeated examples by which an unwritten law has de- veloped which makes certain illegal actions immune from punishment. Tomorrow, perhaps, you will have an old man who repeatedly expressed the wish to die, killed by an inn patient heir who will swear that he committed the act because he was begged to do so, or we shall have a husband who gets rid of an invalid wife and then organizes a little com edy to cover his guilt.
 We doctors, who know of the suffering that precedes death, will never admit the right to kill, even though we are in a position to put an end to suffering without any sus- picion falling up us. But it is never absolutely certain that a pa tient is going to die. There is al ways that glimmer of hope. For in stance, suppose a patient was at the next twenty-four hours science may discover a new and marvellous cure?
 Furthermore, it is madness to kill to relieve suffering because a doctor has always at his disposal drugs

United States. They declare these crimes were in a measure melted by the Paris judgment.
 The Uminska case attracted wide spread attention. For many long and weary months the girl had nursed her sweetheart, first in Poland and later here, where she brought him for an operation Doctors pronounced his malady as incurable and hopeless. There was no question as to the girls love and devotion. Reduced to pov- erty and want, she remained at his side. His sufferings became unbear-

 An Object of Pity.
 At the trial for murder she was an object of pity and the entire court, including the prosecution, sympathiz- ed with her. ''This is an unpleasant duty that I am called upon to per form,' said the prosecutor, 'but the

 That is why we say that it is a dangerous judicial doctrine to de- clare that the taking of human life is justified, no matter what the cir cumstances. I would have preferred to see our admirable Henri Robert obtain tn acquittal of his pitiable client on the ground that her nerves had broken, that she was crazed by sorrow and acted on the impulse of an unbalanced mind"
