Hcciusca ;cron lclitve that han Ing U ihe poorest use to put a man to, it i not a goxl reason why a Lrv-abiJ-ing citum shouM sign a petition for c orr.mutationof the scntrnce of the an axliists, ahhougn it is evidence that it ;s the most common reason why citi zens are now doin so. If the law which visits muulcr with the penalty of Jeaih is averse to the will otthe major ity of the people of the state, it should be rcjca!cd, and objection to it not inxle the ground for peations to sec it aside in favor of particular criminals. . It is nothing new for large numbers of xry good Citizen? to interest them selves on behalf of executive clemency to convicted criminals. So constituted is human nature that a petition for Jhe commutation of the death penalty im posed upon the most vicious and bru tal murderer is Certain of finding sign ers. There is such a fascination about signing a petition for mercy that man- sinu em scarcely rcsi iu juugmcia, reason, an.i self preservation yield to 1 1 t T...1 - the temi-tation to plead with an official sworn to administer the law, to exercise the "attribute cf God Jiimsclf." A petition for any object never lacks signatures, since there is nothing cheap er than that which cots a petitioner nothing, but which may ask anything, from a copper for a blind imposter to thc life of a condemned cut-throat. Now, what is this law of capital pun ishmcnt which so many good citizzns would have abrogated in behalf of the anarchists, or for that matter in thc Is it something nc? Was it enacted in haste ? Is it specially applicable topny class? No, it is none of these. As the pen alty for murder death has been decreed from thc earliest time, in all lands, and among all people and conditions c f men. The quesaon of its expedien cv has en traced the attention of the J t- aJ wisest philosophers and law-makers, pagan and Christian, in all ages. - Whoso sheddeth man's blood by man shall his blood be shed" is thc scriptural justification of capital pun- shment. Civilization has not yet reached any decisive conclusion that there i any wiser substitute for the death penalty f.r murder and treason, of both which crimes the anarchists were gunty. The cxjerimcnt of substituting life imprisonment of various degrees of se verity for capital punishment has been tried in several countries in Europe and in a few of the states, but not with such satisfactory results as to be of any de cisive value in determining thc expedi ency of the innovation. In one or two instances states have re-enacted capi tal punishment after a trial of doing without it. Capital punUhment may be all wrong but thc way to right thc wrong is not by jctition for its suspension as to any individuals, but for its abolition gener ally. The 1-Vre? Hoy. T. D.

From the quiet ot country heme this is a terrible tranvi- tion. There arc ladies here in Wash ington hosc husbands have been army or navy officers. They have spent years in society and have held and still hold hh rank. The mysteries of form and!usage arc familiar, to them, but the death or retirement of their husbands his reduced their finances Le'o;v tie figures of their extravagant tastes. These ladies now sustain their position in society leading the uninitiated through the my.-terious mazes. They teach the wives of new senators ami members from the back districts the (jK)litc forms and pilot them safely ' . " j through a winter in Washington.

They tell them thc difference. between an ordinary tea and a high tea; between a dinner party and a luncheon.

In the morning, when they are not circling the rounds of society, they act thc part of private , conversationalists. There are always a number of wealthy ladies who, on account of not knowing the ways of society, or of ill-health, or perhaps because they arc in mourning, are not in the social swim. As conversationalists these queens and factotums of society briiig all the gossip and goings on in society in a morning call upon those wealthy victims of seclusion. They tell Uum who held , . 1 -..I . - . reception? last nigni ana wno were there; what they wore, what they said, and what was sa;d about them.
