schools of the county.

FOR WIFE-SLAYER
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 25.
Actors and oter members of the the
atrical profession throughout America
are to be asked to sign a petition for
the pardon of George Marion, an old
time actor, who is serving a life term
in the Eastern Penitentiary here for
the murder of his wife four years ago
in Wilkes Barre. Clemency is to be
asked on the ground that Marion is
dying of tuberculosis.
WILKES BARRE, Pa., July 25.
The murder committed by George
Marion, for whom a pardon is being
sought by members of the theatrical
profession occurred in this city Aug.
20, 1909. In early life Mariou had
been an actor and in later years was
employed as a theatrical advance
agent. He had lived in Wilkes Barre,
but at the time of the tragedy his
home was in Atlanta, Ga.
Marion and his victim, his common
law wife, who was formerly Miss
Frances Lee, of Zion City, 111., had,
it was alleged, been living together as
husband and wife for seven" years.
Several weeks before the tragedy, it
is claimed, the woman ran away with
another man, taking her child with
her. Marion traced tnem to this city,
and through the chief of police he ar
ranged to meet his wife at police
headquarters.
When they met at police headquar
ters, he kissed her and both appeared
happy. Turning to the chiof of po
lice, Marion asked the latter to step
from the office a few moments while
he spoke to his wife in private. The
chief, thinking he was accomplishing
a kind act by bringing husband and
wife together, cgadilv consented. As
soon as he left the room Marion ask
ed his wife if she would return to At
lanta with him. She refused, where
upon he pulled a revolver and shot
her dead.
HANS IS LUCKY
Hans Nelson, who created some dis
turbance on the streets Thursday
while enjoying a mild spree, was ar
raigned before Recorder Siipp Friday
morning and given a sentence of ten
dollars fine and five days in jail.
Hans paid the fine, and exhibited
great contrition. Recorder Stipp bus
pended the jail sentence pending his
good behavior.
LICENSED DOGS
NOW NUMBER 150
Eltorts on the part of the police
throughout the current month to force
citizens to obey the ordinance requir
ing that all dogs be licensed, have
raised the nunlber of licenses from
seven to over 150. When Chief Shaw
first instructed his men to notify all
owners of dogs to license their pets
the police were met by merry ha-has,
but the capture of a few valuable ca
nines and their confinement in the
city pound until fines were paid and
licenses taken out has changed mat
ters somewhat, and now a fair propor
toin of the local animals are duly
tagged. - ' .
Further efforts towards enforcing
the law will be taken up next week,
when the new muzzling ordinance be
comes effective. The council will
pass this measure Monday morning,
onH n it is an firrverirency ordinance.
will take effect immediately after be
ing signed by the mayor. As soon as
the ordinance becomes law, a rigid
crusade against unmuzzled and un
licensed dogs will be started; and
pets whose owners are delinquent will
promptly be disposed of.
But little response- has so far been
". made to the informal request of the
city dads that all dogs be muzzled be
fore the ordinance becomes effective.

DAILY NEWS HEN
NOW CONSTABLES
Authentic news filtering up the
river from Portland has it that Dep
uty Sheriff Dana Sleeth and -Deputy
Sheriff Ceorge McCord have had
their commissions and stars recalled
by Sheriff Thomas Word, of Multno
mah county. Deputy Sheriff Dana
Sleeth was a special deputy by virtue
of his being a newspaperman, and had
his commission revoked, so it is said,
because he is editor of The Daily
News, which of late has said some un
pleasant things about the Multnomah
sheriff. Deputy Sheriff McCord was
a special deputy by virtue of appoint
ment when he was Mhyor Rushlight's
private secretary. Since his return to
newspaper life with the change of ad
ministrations, and his becoming once
again a writer for The Daily News,
his commission has gone the - same
route.
It is also reported authentically
that upon being "recalled" as special
depuLy sheriffs, Messrs. Sleeth and
McCord have been appointed deputy
constables by Constable Andy Wein
berger. Thus they may still wear
stars, carry "gats" and wander at
pleasure through the tire lines.
Cor.troversary Nears Settlement
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 25.
What is known as the old Virginia
West Virginia debt case, whic had
it origin in the separation of West
Virginia from the mother common
wealth during the civil war, is now
nearing a final settlement. Today
the commissioners representing the
two states met in this city to arrange
the final details of the agreement.
The only question now in dispute is
the amount of interest to be paid by
West Virginia.
REAL ESTATE MEN TO MEET
WINNIPEG, Man., July 25. The lo
cal committee in charge of the ar
rangements is in receipt of advices
indicating that the annual convention
of the National Association of Real
Estate Exchanges, which will meet in
this city next week, will be the larg
est and most representative gathering
of its kind ever held in America. Ho
tel reservations have been made by
delegations from nearly all of the
large cities of Canada and the United
States. .
Spain Loves Queen Mother
MADRID, July 25. Queen Maria
Christina, who successfully guided
the destinies of Spain during the six
teen years between the death of her
husband and the coming of age of
her son, the present King, celebrated
her fifty-fifth birthday this week. The
love and esteem in which she is held
by all cjasses was evidenced by the
fact that the anniversary of her birth
was kept as a general holiday. -
Respite for Murderer
PRINCE ALBERT, Sask., July 25.
Despite the fact that he is confined
behind the prison bars, "this was a
happy day for Lewis Ratz, one of the
two Hungarians convicted of the
brutal murder of Carles Bruggencote
last February. Ratz was to have been
executed today, but the action of the
supreme court in ordering a re-trial
of his case assures him another lease
of life.
Regatta on Hudson
NEW YORK, July 25 The Hudson
Kiver Rowing association has com
pleted all arrangements for its eighth
annual regatta, which is to be held
over the Woodcliffe course tomorrow
afternoon. The programme provides
for eleven events and the number of
entries assures the association of
some spirited competitions.
What to Do In Vacation.
Play, play, play! Play all the time,
whatever your social standing or your
ordinary duty. Let father forget that
there is an office of which he is the
head or a business that he assists to
manage, and let mother forget for the
time all the household duties and little
everyday worries and frets.
Leave them all behind, and for a
fortnight at least be care free and
happy.
Let mother go out all day and play
with the children or sit on the beach,
bathe or build sand castles and leave
the frocks and little garments' to be
made and mended some other time.
Do not try to do the usual amount
of sewing; let the children go about
happily without stockings: thea there
will be little or no mending to be done
till after you go borne again.
Play cricket, croquet, golf, paddle
and play the children's games with
them and be young again and you will
get lots of health and happiness.
One Important thing should be no
ticed during a seaside or country holi
day. You are in different surroundings
to what is usual to you; you are out In
the open air much more than Is usual;
therefore extra rest is needed.
A wise plan Is for the whole family,
directly after lunch or midday dinner,
to lie down and rest quietly for half
an hour or an hour. Go to sleep if pos
sible, but at any rate He down with
the blinds drawn and keep still for a
time. It is good for the children and,
for their elders, and In the long run
the holiday will do much more good
to all
POWER OF THE MAJORITY.
It is important not to confound
stability with force or the great
ness of a thing witli its duration.
In democratic republics the pow
er which directs society is not
stable, for it often changes hands
and assumes a new direction,
but whichever way it turns its
force is almost irresistible. The
governments of the American
republics appear to me to be as
much centralized as those of the
absolute monarchies of Europe,
and more energetic than they
are. I do not therefore imagine
that they will perish from weak
ness. If ever the free institu
tions of America are destroyed
that event may be attributed to
the omnipotence of the majority,
which may at some future time
urge the minorities to despera
tion and oblige them to have re
course to physical force. An
archy will then be the result,
but it will have been brought
about by despotism. Alexis de,.
Tocqueville.
Heart to Heart
Talks '
v -BEAUTY IS EVERYWHERE.
For him hat hath eyes every season
brings its offerings of beauty along
the country roadside. There is the lacy
beauty of the frost, the delicate green
ery of spring, the gay foliage of the au
tumn. But in the summer, when every
blade of grass has its insect tenant,
when the wayside weeds spring thick
and strong, when the fields are starred
with daisies, there is beauty wherever
one turns an eye.
Not alone from the cultivated plant
does the seeing eye derive its pleasure.
Very often the so called weed is a
vegetable .bird of paradise in its luxu
riance of delight
From the conservatory come the
stately blooms. From the swamp
come the lilies and the wood violets,
that are true sisters of the cultivated
blooms. Who shall say that any is su
perior to another In bringing delight to
the heart?
Out of the muck comesrgraceful and
tall, the glorious lily. In the weedy
places waxes the water ranunculus,
bearing its pretty snowflakes.
It is so in the great garden of hu
mankind. Therein grow both flowers
and weeds.
There are more of the former.
. Not alone In the conservatory of the
good and great must we look for beau
ty. From the lowly life of Nancy
Sikes, born in the slime of London's
streets, the world has learned lessons
of self sacrifice and devotion. The
Marchioness had her home in a damp
basement, but she made therein an
example of cheerfulness and content
It is amazing to think with how lit
tle sunshine and happiness the human
plant can bloom into beauty and love.
Perhaps the same plants, if brought
out into the full sun of prosperity,
would wither in the heat Perhaps,
knowing more of kindness and hope,
they would fail to respond. Wno
knows?
In the swamp, where the rich vege
tation grows lush, there is little sun
shine. It is obscured by the great
growth of the trees. In the human
swamps the sunshine is hidden by the
trunks of greed and selfishness and in
consideration. When the marsh is drained and the
trees are cut down there is better life.
There is just as much vegetation per
haps, but it gets a better -chance to
grow and to develop.
When a human swamp Is drained by
the forces of love and kindness and
mutual helpfulness the human vegeta
tion can grow into healthy life.
Hew away at the trunks of the ob
scuring trees. If you cannot cut one
down, at any rate you can make a gash
in the bark that shall serve as a guide
to the man with a mightier arm and a
keener ax.
