HENEY'S RECOVERY.
The entire United States Is thank
ful for the assurance that Francis J.
Henoy, the state prosecutor of San
T, , , , . ,.
Franclsco, has been convalescent for
a number of days, and will shortly
bo a well man. Thanks to protect-
lng providence, Heney's wound i
proved not as grevious as was at
, first feared and as his assailart
meant that it should be.
A heinous affair will be fittingly
concluded when Honey Is enabled .to
load the prosecution agalnt the man
who attempted his murder, .and the
men who Instigated the crime.
Tho assault of Heney will have
consequences which will be most
unwholesome for the men who
planned to do aWay with the ag-1
gressivo attorney, and for others of
tho same Ilk whose prospective free-
dom Is now In the balance. San
Francisco has not been unaware of
tho activities of its municipal criml-
nals during the last few years, and
tho town nas made sporadic efforts
to wipe out its shame. But the mass

Fortunately, In times of great need,
such leaders always present them
selves. Providence provides them
when tho hour is timely.
Hut u leader, no matter how big
and strong and enthusiastic no hap
pens to bo, is liable to accomplish
liltlo without his following. Heney ,
has had tho moral support of tho
greater part of the community since J
ho began his investigations. But ho i
has needed something more than I

quires tho active assistance of the
representative men of his town
Ho
needs tho backing of public senti
ment of u cumulative fervor. Tho
recent shooting will do moro to

oJ tho city in his prosecutions than
anything else which might havo
happened.
Heney himself has expressed a
reeling of gratlludo toward his
would-be assassin. Very shortly af
ter ho was removed to his bed he said
to a friend that tho story of his
misfortune would arouse tho peoplo
of San Francisco to a pitch of anger
Tigaiust tho lawless elements of tho
town which, in time, would sweep
craft out of existence. That Honey's
prediction will bo realized has al

The other day, a figurative poem
by L. A. L-q-t was published in
"With the Toast and Tea" that
seems to have made quite a hit.. Al
ready three responses in similar verso
have reached The Times, one from
Dandon and the two from Coqullle.
Neither is signed and until the wrl-
. T. .. . .
ters of the "anFwers" make known
their identity, it will be necessary to
keep the Identity of L. A. L-q-t
secret also. At any rate, the "an-
swers" are so good that we can't re
frain from publishing them, to
gether with the original, the lattor
appearing first.
An Appeal."
Beside the gr8 I medltS
Upon my fS, my single stS,
This Leap Year, nineteen hundreds;
n0 gri has tried to fascinS,
And yet I am a tempting bS
And half inclined to take a mS.
AHf ,j0 not joke and aggrevS!
Tace pity on my single stS,
This Leap Year, nineteen hundred 8!
strange dreams have haunted mo of
is
Ar0 you sweet maid, to share my
fg?
If S0- iease make a leap year dS.
L. A. L-q-t.
I'll "share your fS" and cook your
I hash,
In Bandon-by-the-Sea.
I This year Is almost gone, L. A.
1 I too, am "tempting bS"
i But I'm afraid 'twill not be known
Until it is too IS.
I am so young and bashful,
And proper too ah me!
That's why I'm still a widow,
In Baudon-by-tho-Sea.
So now, dear Mr. L-q-t,
Your fS no longer dread; .
For 'ero tho year has gone to sleep,
bo planned, though no human eye
seo It, can tho murderer ovado a re
morse which prompts him to cry out,
"Am I my brother's keeper?"
Greek mjthology personified tho
Eumenldes, "Avenging Furies," for
ever pursuing tho shedder of blood
until ho gave up his guilty secret.
Every ago has its writer who repeats
tho story. Euripides relates tho
tragedy of Orestes, Shakespeare bus
portrayed tho agony of Macbeth, Poo
has told of tho "Imp of tho Porverse"
and "Tho Black Cat," Bulwer of "Eu
gono Aram." John II. Prcutls In
"Tho Caso of Dr. Horace" puts tho
question squarely: Is It possible for
a murderer to remain silent? Evon
though tho guilty secret may nevor
bo confessed in words, tho impulso
to revisit tho scene of crime can
raroly bo resisted.
True, there may bo exceptions.
Lombroso speaks of "moral lmbo
cllos ' who lack ontlrely. a sense of
right and wrong. Tho Sicilian ban
dit and tho Kentucky foudl-.t of to
day, who to all Intents are "throw
backs," may escape tho vision of
their crimes. But a conclusion can
not bo drawn from abnormal types.
Tho ordinary murderer cannot oludo
his sense of isolation, and with mad
donlng itoratlon tho blood of tho
victim "crleth from tho ground."
See "UNCLE JOSH" and enjoy a
good laugh Friday.
