A Bon of Romance.
lUcdottl aaribnldl. who was arrested
recently for what perhaps is an every
day offense among tho masses In Italy,
Is evidently bent upon llrlng np to tho
romantic rather than tho noblo famo
of his venerated father. Young Gari
baldi seems to covet tho limelight Ills
father was a very unassuming hero
born to do a great work, which bo did
well, then retired to obscurity. In his
early days tho outsldo world looked
upon tho first Onrlbaldl as something
of an adventurer, n sort of IUlsull, who
made patriotism a pretenso and was
always looking out for No. 1. Ho nud
his followers formed a plcturcsqtio
group and wero given to deeds that
smacked of tho age of chivalry rather
than of tho nineteenth century. Per
bops nicclottl Is barking buck to the fif
ties, the days of tho Carbonari, when
bis father was a "striker" rather than
a liberator and protector, with a price
set on his bead.
It Is tho talk of Europe that young
Garibaldi's sword has a price set upon
it nud that ho will fight for tho sldo
that puts up tho biggest purso. The
career of his "foreign legion" during
tho war tetween Turkey nnd Orcece Is
often recalled as nn orgy of plundering,
In which tho victims were the very
tieoplo ho pretended to help fight their
battles. Since that time he has been
accused of tlonsplrlng tu overthrow the
Italian government, from which be
drans a siitmuintlal annuity. lie Is

of tho name he licars. Old tlnrlbnldl

At tho recent annual meeting of tho
Ullnnitulogtcul association tho public
wus warned by ono of the lecturer:!
that under tho conditions of American
llfo prevailing at present heart dis
ease Is n national peril. In making
this point Dr. Darlington, commission
er of health In New York city, dc
dared that tho effect of high strung
nervous tension Induced by modern
methods of social nud business compe
tition Is n factor In tho production of
functional nnd ultimately organic dl
ensti of the heart. Ho assorted thai

Too much Is expecteil of tho young,

Uven keenly contested games leave
their vicious Imprint on the physical

youth. The doctor referreil to the ear
ly days of our natlouul life, when the
young were allowed to grow up nat
urally. Children who wero good schol
ars wero kept lit lessons, but those
who wero Indifferent to IsHjks were
given n chunco at something cl.se.
Ilngenicss to excel soon begets ph
tcid and meutnl unrest, and this butts
on through tbe age of maturity. No

human being cannot bo urged too

hardiness.
Tbe Future of the American Turf.
It horso racing Is a sport and not a
mere speculation It will survive the en
nctment of restrictive laws now In
forco in sovernl states nud impending
In others. Horso races bavo always at
tracted an element which consider the
rnoo feature simply ns n chnnco for
gambling, but their presence nt the
Irnck lu largo numbers, coupled with
their conspicuous activity In gambling
on tho rsult, may bavo kept nwuy n
host of other people who would expe
rience keen pleasure In n snunro con
test between thoroughbreds.
Racing associations which fenr that
tho enforcement of harsh statutes aim

mnke n thorough lest of tho purely
sporting blood of tho communities.

V
Nortbport, N. Y., July 14.-On the
threshold of tho home that once had
been his, but which was shut to him
fur he shot his father-ld-law on Dec.
27, 1000, Dr. James W. Simpson was
shot by tho wife of the man whom hu
had killed. Simpson was acquitted ot
tho murder of his father-in-law In spite
of testimony which his wife und his
mother-in-law gavo against him. Tha
killing, bowevor, had alteuatcd bis
wlfo from him, and It was when de
manding to see her In order to arrange
with ber to make their separation per
manent by means of a divorce that thu
bullot came entitling through a glass
door. It entered tbo dentin's abdomen
and lodged la the lower part of tbe
right luug. He hurried tu New York,
where ho went to Roosovelt hospital
to huve an operation performed.
After receiving a frightful wound
Dr. Simpson showed that be hail mar
velous fortitude and nerve. Suffering
intonie pain, knowlug that Internal
hemorrhage was sarplng bis life, he
traveled alone from Nnrthport to Long
Island City and from there, with little
help, mado his way to Roosevelt hos
pital, And on tbe way, Knowing he
was looking death closely In the face,
he iiiM solemnly:
I may die before morning. If I die
It will be with n consi li'iice clear of
the murder of my father-in-law."
Wife Loyal to Mcther.
The shooting of Simpson came its an
other tragic Incident In n household In
which wealth had caused dissensions
which turned daughter against bet
parents. Not until her father had ben
shot by tbe man whom she hail in.tr
rted and to whom she had htvn loyal
did tbe daughter return to her motlicr
and desert tbe man who bad done the
killing So bitter was the feeling of
mother and daughter toward Siiup-ou
thut when thoy kuew ho was lying on
tpelr doorstop Wowllng trgiu u danger
ous wouud they did not lift a linger fn
help him.
When Dr. SUnpsnn, who was one ot
the meet promluent dentists lu this
section, killed his fathur-lu-lnw, Hart
ley T. Horner, tho revulsion of feeling
which Mrs. Simpson felt toward her
bus'jand was such that when the Jury
acquitted the dontlst she denounced
the twelvo men for what she said was
a gross miscarriage of Justlco.
Plmpsou had lived in tbe home of his
fatbor-ln-law, who was n wealthy re
tired tobacco planter. There wore
many quarrels In the household, and
Mrs. Simpson always stood with her
husband, but after tho killing of her
father she and her mother told the
dentist never to enter their home
again, and It was because he was ubout
to violate their Injunction that he was
shot.
Statements from Dr. Simpson and
from Mrs. Horner as to the circum
stances attending the shooting ills
agree. The dentist says that be bad
received word that his wife Intended
to tuu him for a divorce and thut he
went to the Horner home to talk with
her about It. He nays be rang the
doorbell and upon receiving no re
sponse peered through the door pane.
He saw Mrs, Horner, be says, niul
called to her to open the door. Then,
Pr. Simpson says. Mrs. Homer grab
bed up n revolver nnd shot lihn. The
bullet entered his body above the nb
domen, nuil he fell back against I In
doorslll. A second slmt was llivil sit
htm, he claims, but Hie bullet vvcul
wild.
) Womsn Admits Shooting.
Mrs. Horner Hoes nut deny mat sue
did the shooilug, but she il.ilms jiisil
llcollon. Through ber law or. Row
land Miles, hho said thai llr. Simpson
had several times called at the bouse
and that his visits vveru unwelcome.
When he mine again sho says she or
dered blm off the place, nud wh be
refused to go she took up n revolver
that was lying on n rack in the hall
aud shot at him. Constable Hanson,
who arrested Simpson In Ifssl when
the dentist shot Mrs. Horner's hus
band, arrested Mrs. Homer. Sho was
charged with felonious assault. After
Justice R. W. Hawkins had lixed ball
at $3,000, Mrs. Hlnipion, the prisoner's
daughter, guve bond and secured tbe
release of her motlicr.
Mn. Klmpson said thut while Bhe
was not preieut when her mother tired
the shot lit Dr. Simpson she believed
her mother was absolutely Justified
and said Dr. Simpson got what he do
served. Bna says she was In a rear
room of tbe bouse at the time, but
upon hearing n shut she dropped what
she was doing and ran to see If ber
mother had been shot. When she
found that It was ber husband she
says the was relieved,
"When ray mother ordered Dr. Simp
son off tb place ho made as though
to put his hand In his pistol pocket,"
said Mrs. Htunuun. "Mother believed
he was going to shott ber, so she shot
him."

London, July 14. Italn Interfered
badly with tbe fourth International
Olympiad nt Shepherd's bush, and at.
though It cleared off before tbe con
tests, tho attendance full far short of
expectations. Tho testing capacity of
the Stadium Is upward of 70,0ml, and
while the covered stands contained sec
tions which were well filled, there wore
many vacant spaces.
In some of the events, too, tho con
testants appeared affccti-d by the ad

events, particularly the LW meters
race, in which tho greatest interest
centered, the men were up to their

ability to dlscoru between tho true and
the falso. Ha mutt be able to analyto
tho conditions and to detect the aophls-.
tries that ire always employed by
those who seek unfair advantages.
Must Hav Moral Courage.
"He must possess the moral courage
to stand against the influences that
are brought to bar In tavor of special
Interests. In fact, the quality ot moral
courage 1 na esaintlal In a publto oaV.
cud as either right sympathies or
trained mind.
'A prcsldont mast bare counstlon.
and to make wise use ot counstlora
he must be open to conviction. The
president 1 committed by hi platform
to oertain policies, and the platform Is
binding. He Is alio committed to cer
tain principles ot government, and
these he I) In duty bound to apply In
all matters that come before him.
"But there Is a wide aone In which
he must act upon hi own Judgment,
and bare he ought to have the all ol
Intelligent, conscientious and faithful
advisers. The law provide these to a
certain extent in giving him a cabinet,
and tbe vice president ought to be'
mad a momber of the cabinet ax t
fldo In order, first, that the preildent
may have the bentfit of hi wisdom
and knowledge of affairs, and, second,
that tbe vice president may be better
prepared to take up tk werk of tbe

Thtrc ought to be cordial relations

"Highlit Office In th World."
"But the presidency Is the highest
position In the world, and Its occupant
Is an Important factor In all national
matttrs. It ho is a devout believer la
our theory of government, recognize
the constitutional distribution of pow
ers, trusts thoroughly In the people

be can exert a wholesome Influence la

The responsibilities of the office are
so great that the occupant ought to be
relieved of every personal ambition
save the ambition to prove worthy ot
the confidence of his countrymen. For
this reason he ought to enter the posi
tion without thought or prospect ot a
second term.
"While the burdens of such an eBce
are heavy, and while the labors of the
office are exacting and exhausting, th
field ot service Is large, and, measur
ing greatness by service, a president
by consecrating himself to tbe public
weal can make himself secure In th
