EffKIOf PESSIMISTIC UTfRATURE The trial for murder of Charles Brunke, which ended with his conviction and the imposition of a sentence to eight years of simple imprisonment was one of the most sensational trials held for many years. Brunke was a bank clerk and shot and killed the beautiful sitters Haars, aged twenty and twenty-two on October 17 of last year. According to the evidence Brunke is a type of the German degenerate, corrupted by decadent and pessimistic literature, leading to meglomania and contempt of life. The evidence of the accused was remarkable. He said he was an enthusi astic student of Kant, Schopenhauer, Spinoza, Nietzsohe and Ibsen. He re garded suicide as allowable, even desira ble, He had written three plays, one called "The Eccentric." in which he de lineated his own character and career. The prison doctors stated that Brunke was sane, but, as the Crown prosecutor only demanded nine and a half years im prisonment he was apparently of the opinion that the prisoners mind was unbalanced. Brunke thrilled a packed court by calmly describing his shooting of the isters as tfey sat side by side In arm chairs at their instigation and with their full consent The father of the girls, a merchant, gave his daughters excellent characters, as' amiable, quiet, innocent girls. It transpired that the mother of the girls had since committed suicide through grief. It is a courtesy to your guests to see that their names appear in the local news paper.

Wttt STATED It is the railroads that make and un make agricultural districts, inland cities, and shipping ports. It is they that have it in their power by their rivalries and manipulations of rates to condemn to stagnation vast sections of the country which have enjoyed commercial vigor, to force into prosperity others which have been conspicuously backward, and as a result from time to time to alter the whole morale of our trade. pjakers have promised to address th convention at its various meetings.
