Sir Henry Hawkins, a brilliant ad

criminal Judges, expresses the follow

"Reminiscences:''
"Let me say a word about circum

spoken of it as a kind of 'dangerous
Innovation' ia our criminal procedure.
It is almost the only evidence that Is
obtainable in all great crimes, and it
la the best and most reliable. I have
witnessed many great trials for mur
der, but do not remember one where
there was an eyewitness to the deed.
How is It possible, then, to bring home
the charge to the culprit unless you
rely on circumstantial evidence?
"Circumstantial evidence is the evi
dence of circumstances facts that
speak for themselves and that can not
be contradicted. Circumstances have
no motive to deceive, while human tes
timony is too often the product of

An absurdly worded statement of a
fact which was not In itself remark
able recently tried the gravity of the
listeners. It was on the occasion of
the funeral of an elderly woman in a
New England town. She had left an
old mother, nearly 90 years of age, and
an only son who was well on toward
50.
The services were conducted by a
timid young clergyman, recently set
tled over the parish. After praying
for many and various things, he said:
"And two, we especially pray that
the Lord will comfort and sustain in
their loss and sorrow. One is the or
phan, who, although no longer young,
Is an orphan still, and must so con
tinue; the other Is the mother, far ad
vanced in years, who has survived her
daughter, although considerably her
senior."
