CHRISTLEY ASKS FOR COMMUTATION [OontliiUMi from First Page,] mako known its decision lata to day. Philip S. Moyer made the chief argument for Chrlstley, John It. Geyor and* Arthur 11. Hull being as sociated with him. Ho dwelt upon injuries received by Chrlstley in childhood, his nervous temperament, a heredity tendency to insanity and the strain of his twenty-four years in the railwuy mail service. He gave an outline of the marital troubles of the Chrlstleya. I .otters lteail Letters from the Kev. C. A. ! Smucker and Henry D. Jones were presented, telling of Chrlstley's men tal distress over his family troubles. Mr. Jones lived near the Chrlstley family and wrote of the man's appar ent willingness to make arrange ments for Jhe children and of his dis turbed condition just prior to shoot ing his wife and attempted suicide. Mr. Moyer recited several instances of Chrlstley's peculiarities and hal lucination about people following him and submitted a petition signed by railway mail service clerks tell ing of Chrlstley's work and the ef fect of the strain upon him. In .sup port of the insanity-plea several ref erences to family history were given as showing the tendency. McClain Not Impressed Lieutenant Governor McClain in commenting upon Mr. Moyer's dis cussion of tha responsibility under insanity pleas said he was not im pressed as under it a man might commit murder and go to an asylum and then be released in a year on the plea that he is normal again. Mr. Geyer went into family his tory and analyzed-the conditions surrounding Christley as against premeditation. District Attorney Stroup declared no- ihsanity had been shown in direct line of the family and that Christley had made threats against his wife weeks before the crime. In answer Attorney General Brown said the wife had left Christley be cause of abuse. "The man may have been nervous and worried, but he was not insane," said he. Mr. McClain said that he had never heard of long service in the railway mail work unbalancing meit even if they had worries. Mr. Hull closed the argument with a brief review of the case. It Was Only Yesterday That— France was thought to be a na tion of decadents. Wrist watches were considered ef feminate. The only thing against the Ger mans, was their rotten manners. A person who saved money was a tightwad. Only one woman in 1775 knew how to knit. A regular army of 150,000 was held to be too large. Nine persons out of ten didn't know where Belgium was. Small-navy advocates declared that the United States was certain never to have another war. Germany was making us believe she was the only nation that could make chemicals, drugs and dyes. To be a pacifist was nothing to be ashamed of.—Life.

"Last War" Predicted Over 102 Years Ago London.—"The last great war has been fought and the nations may now look forward to uninterrupted peace." This was the hope and belief pro claimed from many pulpits in Eng land 102 years ago, when Great Britain, by royal proclamation, cel ebrated a general thanksgiving day following the end of the Napoleonic wars. After the smoke of Waterloo rolled back it revealed a continent given over to desolation. Although England had suffered less than the other nations involved in the long struggle, she had by no means escaped unhurt. For twenty years Great Britain had supplied the financial sinews of war for her al lies in addition to active participa tion in battles on land and sea. RAILROAD RUMBLES URGE DISCRETION BY PASSHOLDERS Pennsylvania Railroad Em ployes Ask 111 em to Co operate; Less Travel Pennsylvania railroad officials in this city and on the main line have started a campaign to curtail pa3s travelers. No orders have been is sued restricting the use of passes, nor will be. With the aid of the heads of the various departments officials are reaching employes per sonally. When an.' application is made for a trip pass the employe Is urged to use It if absolutely neces sary. Holders of annual and term passes are requested to co-operate In mak ing a discreet use of personal pass privileges. The caution is to the wives, moth ers, sisters and sons and daughters of employes, who are entitled to the privilege of the annual or term pass. It does not limit the use Qf the pass to any particular occasion, such as death, sickness or accident,' but it advises care and economy in the use of the pass, urging that it be used only when really needed. Government Restrictions The movement results from the re strictions the Federal government is 'everywhere placing on passenger traffic, greatly reducing and restrict ing the number of trains run and even the number of cars to be run on regular trains, and the idea is that not more space in these trains than necessary should be taken up by pass-holders. Further reductions in train service may be looked for on many roads and often now extra passenger cars have to be run on trains because of the large number riding on passes. Foremen have already begun to inform their men of the request. This has caused rumors that an order was to be posted absolutely restrict- j ing passes to cases of necessity, butj there will be no formal order, the employes being relied on to do their bit by responding willingly to the suggestions.

C.—-Hls entire family—his wife, two daughters, two sons and a son-in-law killed as the result of German craving for world dominion, is the experience of Herb ert W. Owen, who was recently ap- j pointed song leader at Key West Barracks and at Forts DeSoto and Dade by the Commissions on Train- I ing Camp Activities of the War and | Na'vy Departments. Mr. Owen's two sons and son-in | law were killed in action on tho I western front. His two daughters, j who were Red Cross nurses, perish- J ed when the Huns bombarded a Red j Cross hospital back of the lines in Frances. His wife subsequently died of a broken heart. Mr. Owen has been active in pro moting singing in the British Navy, giving a large part of his attention to the jackies on the warships in London harbor. He has come to this country, in the hope of contributing I his share to the highly developed program with which, profiting by the Allies' experience, America is build ing and strengthening tho morale of her lighting men. Unlike the demands of a canton ment where the song leader is in charge of 40,000 men, Mr. Owen's duties enable him to cover three posts, spending a short time at each in turn. He is also coaching amateur theatricals at these stations.

The general appear ance was in a rash, and the skin was red and sore. He always wanted to scratch, and I was compelled to put cloths on his hands at night. His face looked like a piece of meat. "I had him treated but it did no good. I was told to send for a free sample of • Cuticura Soap and Oint ment. I did so, and afterwards bought more, and I used two boxes of Cuticura Ointment with one cake of Cuticura Soap and he was healed."
