"For the Blind."
A bos bearing the words "For the

At the end of three weeks, however,
the box was taken down. A lady who
had contributed liberally went inside
the shop to Inquire the reason. "Well.
Mr. Carpenter, I see you have taken
your box away." she said. "Yes." he

QUEEN ALEXANDRA'S PLANS.
She May Set Up a Court of Her Own at
Marlborough House.
Queen Alexandra may have a court
of her own at Marlborough House this
season after the second anniversary of
King Edward's death has passed.
She is already having some of the
larger rooms redecorated and refur
nished. and she has told the Jadies in
her entourage that she means to lighten
her mourning and take up public life
again. She appeared at a Queen's hall
concert a few days ago attended by a
large suit, and the storm of cheers
which greeted her brought tears of
pleasure.
She has always . reveled in the en
thusiasm with which her subjects ac
knowledged her presence and rejoices
In the fact that even now she is fai
more popular than hor daughter-in-law.
Queen Mary, who is merely greet
ed by respectful salutes and a few
subdued cheers. ' . '- .
The queen mother also intends to ap
pear regularly at the opera. She will
sometimes share the royal box with
her son and his wife, but more often
she will be accompanied hr Princess
Victoria and some members of her
suit, for King George and Queen Mary
are not ardent music lovers and are
not seen at Covent Garden more than
four or five times during the season.
And then the two royal ladies are not
congenial enough to wish to be togeth
er more than they can help.
Queen Alexandra resents being sup
planted in her position as first lady in
the land, and Queen Mary disapproves
of her mother-in-law's amazingly
youthful appearance and beauty, as
well -as her frivolity and love of dress
and jewels.

AS TRIAL STARTS
LOS ANGELES, May 15. The trial
of Clarence S. Darrow on a charge
of bribing George, N. Lockwood, a
juror in the McNamara case, began
today before Presiding Judge ..George
H. Hutton of the superior court. The
case was called in the Hall of Justice,
in the very room where the McNa
mara brothers were sentenced to the
penitentiary for dynamiting the build
ing of the Los Angeles Times.
Darrow listened with calm demean
or to the reading of the indictment
that assailed his honor. He appear
ed in excellent health, although it
was apparent that he had aged much
since coming to Los Angeles several
months ago to take up the defense
of the McNamara brothers.
Appearing for Darrow were his
chief counsel, Earl Rogers, who mar
shaled the defense of Patrick Calhoun
in the course of the San Francisco
"graft prosecutions," W. H. Dehm, as
sociate counsel; Judge Cyrus McNutt,
who was associate counsel under Dar
row for the McNamaras and W. H.
Anderson.
The state's forces were led by Dis
trict Attorney John D. Fredericks,
who successfully prosecuted the Mc
Namaras. He was aided by Assistant
District Attorney Joseph Ford and
Deputy District Attorney Arthur
Keetch. Ford also played a promi
nent part in the McNamara trial.
Counsel for both sides appeared to
day to believe that the trial would be
stubborn and long drawn out.

THE MIR-ACLES OF LOVE.
' Did you ever read Lincoln Steffens'
short story "The Least of These?"
It is about Bailey. -
Bailey is a mission worker with a
great pity in his heart for the down
and outs of society. In order to help
this class he got ah appointment as
night guard and was promoted to be
special deputy jailer.
A man never got so low down that
Bailey would not help him.
He met men on their own level and
was a friend They were never too
dirty or offensive for Bailey. He wash
ed them and ministered to them and
put them to bed. When they got up
up clothed and in their right minds
Bailey helped them.
It was a rough ministry.
Sometimes the poor outcasts would
curse Bailey or rebel against his baths,
but he was as gentle though Crm as
any mother, and his gentleness won.
And then
When the prisoners had slept a good
clean sleep Bailey would probe their
hearts, like a kind surgeon probing a
wound, until he found the tender place.
He touched the spot tenderly, quick
ly, and then he was ready to take up
any question In which they were in
terested. He did not force religion or
the Bible upon them if they didn't
want to talk about those matters.
Bailey was wise.
He put into the mental stomach of
those poor creatures, as he put into
their physical stomachs, whatever of
a wholesome, nourishing nature they
could keep down..
Bailey knew. .
And when the jail sentences were up
Bailey helped the prisoners to find hon
est work and get upon their feet He
hired a house where he lodged the fall
en men. He never despaired of them.
When they left the city his letters fol
lowed them.
Herein Is love.
We try to reform men by punishing
them. We fail, of course, because we
cannot distinguish between hatred of
the crime and hatred of the criminal.
Bailey could distinguish.
Love never fails. It is the only thing
in all the world that does not fail. And
the world is dying everywhere for a
little bit of it
Bailey loved men, not theoretically,
not generally, but specifically.
Therefore he worked miracles with
men the miracles of love.

a scene that will catch the women?

An Alibi
By EDWARD BURNS
John McElroy was being tried for
burglary.
The state had made a very Rood case
against the prisoner, and the defense
had been very weak. . There seemed
nothing to do but go through the for
mality of a conviction. At this junc
ture the prisoner said:
"Your honor, there is a gentleman in
court who. if be only remembers me.
can prove that at the time I am charg
ed with having committed this crime I
was far away from here."
"Point him out." said the judge.-
"That gentleman there, your honor,
with mutton chop whiskers and
glasses."
.The man. a well dressed person about
fifty years old. looked about him as If
to see to whom the prisoner referred,
but, soon becoming conscious that the
eyes of the court were upon him, mov
ed uneasily in his seat.
"Will you take the stand, sir?" said
the judge.
"Who? What? I?"
"Yes. you!"
"There's some mistake here. I am
arrived only this morning from Val
paraiso. 1 am interested in a case on
the calendar which I have been in
formed would come up possibly today.'
"Do you know the prisoner?"
"Certainly not. 1 never saw him be
fore In my life."
"Mr. Beasley," whined the prisoner,
"you certainly 'aven't forgot John Mc
Elroy rwho used to drive you about the
summer you was stayin' at the ho
tel, In Lon'on?"
"1 remember a man I used to call
John, whose cab 1 used frequently, but
If you are he you must have changed."
"I've cut off my beard. Don't you
remember, sir, my drivln' you to a
lady's 'ouse one day and when you
came hout you was feelin' so Hne that
Instead of the reg'lar fare you give me
a suvirignV"
The gentleman looked like a school
boy detected in kissing one of the girls.
He looked very hard at the prisoner.
"1 think I do remember something
about that visit Did you drive me
that day?"
"What date did it occur?" asked the
Judge.
"1 don't remember."
"Try."
The gentleman put on his thinking
cap and said: "1 was In London from
the middle of April to the 5th of July
of the present year. Now 1 remember
that it was on the 4th of July 1 made
the visit to an American lady who is
now my wife. She was visiting a
friend in Grosvenor square. I remem
ber the day because it was our nation
al holiday."
"Can you swear that this was the
man,who drove you on that occasion ?"
" "No. your honor. I cannot."
Here the witness was put on the
stand and examined by the prisoner's
counsel. -
"Were you traveling for pleasure or
on business?" ' '
"Business."
"Foryourself or In the employ of
ON THE PORC
Electric Iron
others?"
"For others."
"Did they pay your expenses?"
"They did."
"Very well; If they paid your ex
penses yon must have kept an account
of those expenses."
"So I did. and. strange to say. those
expenses are expected to figure In the
case, the trial of which 1 came here to
attend, and 1 have brought my account
book with me."
"Have you It here In court?"
"I have. I did not know when 1 left
my hotel but that the case would be
called this morning, and 1 brought It
with me."
"Examine it and see if on the 4th of
July in the present year you paid a
cabman in London a sovereign."
"I am sure 1 never paid such a large
sum for any cab while there. 1 never
rode long distances."
"You fcep' me waitin', sir. two hours."
"Besides. 1 wouldn't hare charged a
private matter like that to my em
ployers." "Never mind what you did or didn't
do," said the prisoner's counsel. "Ex
amine your account book and let us
know whether there Is a charge of a
sovereign on July 4, 19. for cab hire."
The witness took out a small blank
book and nervously turned over the
leaves. He seemed embarrassed and
fumbled a great deal, the prisoner's
attorney making him more so by
sternly asking him If be was trying
not to find the Item. Finally be paus
