Useless Restraint.

The father smote the youthful

sometimes worse; he had no MIND

To hoeins spuds, or carrying to swim"
their suds, he'd lay aside the hoe or
nail and sing like any nightingale.
His father, blessed with common

I'll take him out behind the church

cried. "Oh. father. do some pity take.
and will no more verses make
Thus his appeal was made in verse
it formed couplet strong and terse.
The father blessed with common
sense leaned back against the old rall

cried. Again III have "a tan his

vows he'll drop his pen and milk

wrote such lays as brought him uni
versal praise. and to this day his
hymns are sung wherever there's a
Christian tongue, And doubtless as
the honors came, and he was loaded
down with fame. his father leaned
against the fence and blessed his own

CHILE SUPREME COURT
PROTESTS DEPORTATION
Constitution Violated, Tribunal
Charges. Asking Ibanez to
Reinstate Urzua.

~ tbs Associated Press.
0ANTIAGO, Chile, March 3.-The
Chilean Supreme Court yesterday sent
O message to the minister OF justice
protesting against the deportation of
Felipe Uizua, president of the Court
OF Appeals, and requesting his imme-
date reinstatement.
Urzua was arrested recently upon
orders Of the new government set up
by Gen. Carlos IbaneZ, on the ground
that he had not displayed proper at
tention to case in which the govern
nent was defrauded. He had before
him at the time Of his arrest many
appeals from persons ordered deported
because of their opposition to the
Ibanez regime.
The Supreme Court message issued
yesterday called attention to the gray
tty Of the situation and declared that
the government, in deporting Urzua
was acting contrary to the provisions
Of the constitution. These provisions,
the message said, vest in the Supreme
Court alone the power to act in cases
involving members OF tribunals.
The message also alleges that the
deportation of Urzua is an act that
undermines the independence of the
Chilean courts.
The newspaper Ell impartial says
that a foreign gunman. in the employ
of a group of Chilean plotters, has
been arrested and has confessed that
he was involved in a. plan to assassi-
nate Premier IbaneZ.

Sympathy.

When johnson lost his muley COW,
and grief was throned upon his brow,
friends came t0 his abode. and told
him how their hearts We're grieved
since he was bitterly bereaved and
solace they bestowed. Men stopped
him on the public street expressing
sentiments so sweet he simply had to
cry: they cheered him up with gems
of thought which were of truths
bright fabric wrought, and proverbs
fine and high. They bade him drop
his load OF care for it is idle to de-
spair, there is relief at hand; they
pointed out that clouds will part, and
pretty soon the sun will start to
shine to beat the band. How good
they are" this Johnson said, they
leave no kindly word uusaid, but still
/ miss my COW; mems sympathy
should cheer and brace, but it will
hardly take the place of milk and
butter now. Despite kind thoughts
I'm sorely veXt; / cannot spread q
helpful text upon slice of bread; |
can't reduce mems soothing words to
buttermilk and whey and curds, on
which I've lately fed" Then Jones,
with a tact as fine as silk, brought
In four quarts of foaming milk, and
said. This gift, perhaps, may cheer
you more than words inspired-I
know they always make me tired
when sprung by other chaps. I can't
express my thoughts in words so
noble they might charm the birds
and bring them from the trees; but
when a neighbor's COW expires, view
his empty barns and byres, and bring
him milk and cheese" Then Johnson
fell on Jones' neck, and cried. by
Hiram and by Heck. this is true sym
pathy! How triiing to afflicted gents
are those exalted sentiments with
which most men are free"

G. W. u. DEBATERS WIN
IN BRITISH CONTEST
Americans Defeat Cambridge, Dis
oussing Voters Qualifications
Judges Vote Is Unanimous.
Ne tbe Assooiated Press.

BY the Associated FTess.
CAMBRIDGE, England, June l.
Mayor Thompson Of Chicago was the
subject of considerable discussion
during an Anglo-American debate be-
fore the Cambridge Union Society last
night on the question of educational
qualifications for voting.
The Cambridge debaters, meeting an
American team from George Wash
ington University, said educational
qualifications would relieve the world
of demagogy, of which they declared
Thompson is an example.
On the American team William A.
McSwain argued that Chicago was a
"hot.bed of aliens and melting pot
where foreigners have not melted" 2"
John T. Trimble contended that no
satisfactory educational test could be
devised and gave it as his opinion that
Thompson is not a representative
American. William F. Williamson,
condemning the idea Of an educational
test as futile, said limitation of suf-
frage meant an oligarchy, the most
discredited form of government.
A motion that the society favor the
establishment of educational qualif1ca-
tions was defeated 81 to Sc.
The three judges, Cambridge
and Oxford professors, unanimously
awarded the decision on the merits
of the debate to the Americans.
