The petition does not provldo for a footbridge merely, but for a wagon bridge a good, solid, comprehensive structure. It Is stated, further, that thero Is a direct relation between this structure and tho school ques tion In this city, thus: If tho west enders can have a good bridge upon which their children can cross to school from either direction, they will at onco withdraw their opposition to a bond Issuo, provided they aro assur ed a proportion of tho expenditure of the school bond money.

An to tho grief stricken mother of the murdered lad ho dared to pen, ovon after reflection, these amazing words: "It Is In tho deopost distress and sorrow for your son that I address myself to you to glvo you proof of my heartfelt sympathy for you In the loss you havo sustained through my action.

A word of for giveness from you, honorod madam, would bo Incomparable consolation, for If the mother forgives, no honor ably minded porson can contlnuo to bear a grudgo." The "word of forgiveness" may be, but It need not bo, withheld. It was not tho hoy officer who did this mur der, but the evil system In which ho had been tralnod the system whoso apologists oro even now praising him for maintaining at such terrlblo cost "an officer's honor,"
