ONE OF Tilt; most dlseournc
Insr thlncs that confront the
Uoatd of Health In the en
deavor of that liody to keoo
the city In a panltnry condition lfl tho
criminal caiekssni-ss and In fnct mean
ness of people who from social stand
ing and general conditions would
naturally be expected to do all In their
power to aid the boaid by furnishing
examples of cleanliness. Incredible at
It may seem, some of the most needless
and ll.iRiant lol.itlons of the snnltuiy
laws mav be found In localities wheie
no excuse can be offered. Many resi
dents about the city of means and ap
parent IntelllKCnre constantly show a
disposition to encounter the danireis of
decaying pailnpe rather than contri
bute to the Income of the men who fur
nish mnterlal for the crematory. Then
Is scarcely a vacant plot of ground
nhout the city that Is not reeking with
111th of Mime kind mixed with nshes
and brush In neatly nil lntnnces
these contributions to the dNease
ln ec ding elements hao been made un
der cover of daikness and It Is next to
Impossible, to detect one of the mis
creants. There Is no question that the
foice of sanitary policemen should be
Increased at once. Under nny clicum
stances, It Is Impossible for one mount
ed olllcer to attend to the duties nf
this branch of municipal work; but
unless a sp'rlt of cleanliness can bo
fostered to a gieitor extent among the
nlleged decent people of the city one
bundled sanltai oflleers would not be
able to accomplish, much In the way of
l eform
One thing m.ij be said In fnoi of the
Xuntlfokc stiike, which was settle 1
amk ililj the othei day Although one
of the most lmpoitant of the jea." it
was conducted without bloodshed The
settlement was biought about by con

a tangible font, a change In
management has occuirrd In the Dela

be timely to have fioni the new man
agement an expression of opinion as
to the need of such a stfegunrd to
life and piopertv on this much tiav
eled thoroughfnie. The old regime
suppnited the viaduct proposition lib
erally, offering to contribute $10 000 to
ward the expense of Its constiuctlon,
and we have no doubt that the pics
enf officials will be equally public spir
ited. Troni the interview- with Piesi

It appeals that that compuiv Is al-o
still nnious for a vKduct and icady

Not Guilty but Pay Costs.
--jr-V113 FRHQUfiNOY with which
B Jill y veidlcts of "not guilty
Jl but pay lohts" nie lendeied
in this and adjoining coun
ties from time to time raises question
of the fairness of such icturns While
on the face contrndlctoiy, this ver
dict In numerous Instances lepiesents
ns near nn approximation to common
sense Justlco as the clicumstances will
allow".
Take the raso of a man charged
with a petty cilmo on an Indictment
huidly worth the court's attention, us,
for example, assault and battel y. It
not lnfjequently happens that In such
cases while pi oof of guilt Is not over
whelming It Is clicumstnnUillv pte
sumptlve or the testimony brings to
light features of conduct not covered
by the Indictment jet plainly worthy
of model ate discipline. In such a ver
dict the words "not guilty" Indicate
lather tho elstenco of a leasonaoie
douht-thnn positive belief In th de
fendant's Innocence on tho chaige as
sta'eil, and tho imposition of costs up
on him Is a kind of crude reminder
that It will pay him to be, on ffiioinl
pilnclplu, tnoie circumspect In futuio.
Thosevwhn argue that the Juiy hri
In logic no right to go a hali'h btoadth
bevnnd tho.buun.da of the Indictment
offer n proposition which Is thcoiotl
cally sound. But In tho nvory day cur
lent of events practice and themy eiy
often diveit'o, und so In tho case of
the "not guilty hut pay costs" verdict
practical Juiors often give their vote
and voice for the essence of Justice ns
between man and mnn lather than for
the technical foimalltlcs of logic anu
the law.

The A.ollneux Trial.
Till: TRIAL, of Mollncux, who
has been niralgned In New
Yolk for the minder of Mrs.
AiUun.s, hns attracted more
than usual Interest on nccount of Its
pecullnr features and tho manner In
which the case hns been conducted.
Kqulpped with an array of legal coun
sel picparcd to leave no stone untuined
tosnvethelrclltnt, tht prisoner hns been
able to ninke his trial one of the most
tedious upon lecord. More time wa.s
consumed In selecting the juiy than Is
usually given to tho healing of an or
llnnry case and before the opening of
the evidence eome of the members of
tho panel were obliged to retire, 111 from
the oi deal to which they had boon sub
jected, while those who did remain
weie In no condition phv ideally or
mentally to weigh the testimony Intro
duced. The strenuous efforts on part of the
counsel, however, to free the prisoner
are liable to be made fruitless through
the testimony of avvomanwhowns for
merly emploved to enre for the apart
ments of Mollneux. This unwilling
witness, while trjlng to shield her for
mer emplover, has given evidence that
has proved the connecting link In the
chnln of chcumstnnces and mny land
the pilsoner In the electrical chair. If
this trial shall result In the. conviction
of the man who has laughed nt arrest
and has seemed secure from punish
ment when fortified by learned counsel
and the deep mjstery (that has sui
rounded the murder of Mrs. Adams, It
w 111 be but another proof of the asser
tion that justice will sooner or later

Indoi.sement of perfidy Is the apotheosis
ot Insanity. It Is so Incredible as to be
sickening. Those who favor such i

them and the lights of hlstoiy nam

The Republican paity .the paitj of

Porto Rico Is now Ameilcan tenltoij-.
The Hag has been lifted ovei It In pei
mntipnt occupation and has been glad
ly ncclalmed by the Inhabitants of
that Island as opening to them n new
pi a of fieedom, development and op
pot tunlty While constitutionally It Is
within the povvci of congiess, before
Its pioceeds to eiect In I'm to Rico a
civil form of government, to maintain
or modify tho present tailff by gi ant
ing disci etlon In such matters to the
pusldent In his capacity as command-tr-ln-chlef
of nn rnnv of conquest
and occupation, the veiy thought of
U'Miitlng to this subterfuge In order
to piotect Connecticut tobacco giowets,
for example, or western beet sugar
gioweis against possible competition
fiom loi to Rico is lepugnnnt to the
Ameilcan sense of fnli plav.
Noi would such pioteetlon be wise
In the long lun. If Porto Rico can
glow better tobacco than Connecticut
or offer to the cities of the Atlantic
seaboaid cheaper sugar than the beet
pioduct of tho middle west, then to
permit hei to do so will be the same
economy which justifies the freest of
commoiclal Inteitouise among tho
htatcs anil older teirltoiles 0f the
Ameilcan Union. The lesult of this In
tel lor fieedom of trade has been the
development of each locality along the
Hues of Its special aptitudes, thus not
only insuilng a mutual profit In the
exchange by one locality of its pro
ducts for the different pioducts of nn
other, but also giving to our nntlon a
diversification of resouices which Is its
gieatest element of economic strength.
The special Interests which want Por
to Rico to be held as a fotelgn Island

ho w Ishes to convey the Idea that this

HUMAN NATURE STUDIES.
Among Her Cherished Memories.
A Philadelphia widow, whose first
husband was on ofllcet during the
Civil war, took as her set'ond lord and
master a wealthy man, and went to
Huiope, where she remained for five
yeais, says the Philadelphia Record.
Prior to her depaiture she gave awaj
some of her household effects, among
which were her first husband's uni
form and epaulettes. The recipient of
the latter gift was tho mother of a
couple of small boys, and the young
steis got Into so much mischief with
the uniform that she one daj' traded It
to an Itinerant merchant for a red
glass decanter and half a dozen cor
dial spoons. The recent war spirit
communicated Itself to the widow of the
dead veteran, who had In the mean
time returned to Philadelphia, and
she felt a longing to reglln possession
of the uniform. So she dlspitehed a
note to her former friend, requesting
Its leturn. The filend wnh in a ter
rible state of mind at being unable to
com pi j', but at a v enture she packed
up the decanters and glasses, w 1th a
line saying "These are all I have rep
resenting Geneial 's personal ef
fects " In return she lecelved a let
ter of gratitude for the faithful care
she had bestowed on her charge, con
cluding: "I cannot tell you how often
I have seen my beloved general drink
his cordial out of one of those frail
little glasses and pi ess It upon me
They are among my most cherished
memories of my hero I shall always
have them near me " Sure enough, the
decanter and glasses were on the table
at her next tea.

Congressman GUI, of Ohio, -who suc
ceeds the late Lorenzo Danford, is ".
living example of its truth, .siys the
Washington Post
Mr GUI Is tho largest manufacturer
of lump chlmnejs In the world, but
this has nothing to do with the storj-.
Away back In 1872, when Danford was
running for congress, GUI was a dele
gare to the nominating convention,
which, by the ray, was his Mist ex
perience In politics It was a close
contest, and GUI, by throwing the
votes of his county to Danford, se
cured the latter's nomination. Danford
served tbiee terms and then practiced
law for eighteen yeais When he
again sought a nomination GUI hap
pened to be a member of tho conven
tion, and by a curious coincidence was
In a position to give Danford the ne
cessary essential votes. Danford came
to congress and served two terms.
During his second term he sought
GUI "It's jour turn now," he said.
"I will decline a nomination, nnd j'ou
can be rejected "
"Rut," Mid Gill, "hav e you any law
practice now ? And hadn't J'ou better
hold onto the 5-5,000 a year for another
teim?"
"I'll take my chances," replied Dan
ford. "I won't do it," said Gill, emphat
ically So Danford ran ngaln and was re
elected. He died timing the summer,
GUI was numed to fill the vncancj- and

Tho Memphis Scimitar tells of a ne
gro preacher who had Just concluded
the ceiemnny which united nn old
negro In matrimony for the fourth
time.
The silence which usually follows an
occasion of this kind was broken by
the preacher In his effort to relieve
the embaiiassment of the attendants.
"It Is usually tho custom," ho said,
"for the preacher to kiss the bride, but
this time we will omit."
The giooin gave his j-oung wlfo a
healthy smack, and, turning to the
pieacher, slid.
"Parson, It am usally de case for do
groom to glvo do paison somethln',
but ills time we'll omit," nnd lie
walked away from the astonished
preacher with his bride on tils arm.

paper feud with a gnmblti named
JpuniKou, Anthony was shot. The doc
tor told him ho could not live. The
wounded man did not say anything,
but bade his sister good bye and went
to sleep. When he awoko ho asked
tho nutse: "What time Is It?" "Six
o'clock," replied the nurse Tho colonel
chuckled for n moment, then said:
"Say, that's n good Joke on Doc Sinks,
Isn't It? He said I'd be dead nt C.30."

The Latest in Advertising.
A new scheme of advertising wns to
sorted to bj' a piogresslve business
llrm In a piospeious city in the South,
sajs the Philadelphia Call. Tho Junior
partner of the firm swore out a wni-
rant for the arrest of the senior part
ner on the ground that he was selling
goods below cost and that the llrm
wns constantly losing money thereby.
Tho caso came up In court and tho
counsel for the senior partner asked
for a postponement In order to have
more time to prepare his case The
Judge granted the request, ball was
fixed and the senior member re
leased. As he left the court room the
Junior paitner aiose and exclaimed:
"If he is leleased tho sacilflce will go
on."
The news soon spread and the firm
did a better business.
When the case was again called no
plaintiff nppeared and tho case was
dismissed The film had succeeded in
