The editor of the Glote towers high above the man who attacks him, both from the stand- point of intelligence and service to his country. Yet Col. Hughes hurls a scandalous charge against that gentle manâ€"a charge involving practical disloyalty against a country which he i loves with the ardor and warmth of a true patriot. Col. Hughes poses as a soldier. It was not the act of a solfier to thug- lilre, attack an adversary behind his back, and at a time when he Was un- able to defend himself. The attack was both shameful and cowardly and the press of all political shades dec nounce it as such. We cannot do better than reproduce IV‘U We cannot do better than reproduce the denial of Dr. Macdonald. It goes to show that the statements of Col. Hughes were simply the vaporings of a man who makes himself positively ridiculous whenever he open his month That is about all he has accomplishâ€" ed since entering the political arena, and no class of people know this bat- ter than those he claims to represent at Ottawa. He has done nothing for this constituencyt except advertise it the length and breadth of th e Doc minion as the riding sending him to Parliament. In olden times. in England. there used to be court jesters in the palacâ€" es of the King. and Queen.

SERGE VIALKING SUIT MODERN HIGHWAY, 380 MILES LONG WAS RECONSTRUCTED IN SINGLE NNNN: The people in Montgomery county, Kan., by voluneeer work, built a modern highway 20 miles long. That record is outclassed by something that has been done by the citizens of Iowa. The greatest piece of roadway on record was accomplished in that state recently when in the space of one single hour a. line of road 3801 ‘miles in length and'stretching entire- ly across the seate was put in the ‘most perfect condition of any road Iwest of the Mississippi River. Weeks and months were spent in prepara- tion for the work, but not-a pick or shovel was used until the designated second was ticked off. Then, as if by magic, 10,000 workmen swarmed out .‘I mua-v, _,' on the roadway. and when they ceased work 60 minutes later Iowa had one of the finest long distance roads in the entire west. And not the least interesting thing in connection with the tremendous “ham: nf work is the fad: that not a CA, wuu'vâ€"KV 11 a distance or 380 miles. striught ac- ross the state from east to wwt. “Make¢he rivervtoâ€"x'iver road asnear perfect as is possible to make Just I LL- common A Well-Known The wen-kncwn magistrate. Mr.‘ Piowdsn, contributcs an interesting study in criminal psycholcgy to the discussion on the death pe nalty which has been carricd on {or the past fort- night in the columns of the “Times." incidcniaily Mr. Pioxrfltn pleads for a, sauer judgmznt 03', 1hr; character and motives of the murderer. He says:â€" It is a popular fallacy to regard a murderer as tb': worst. of criminals. The real truth is {hat in many cases it is hardly fair to describe him as a criminal at all. - ,4 .L‘. _A_ ~‘L criminal at all. ‘ No one who has not been through the fire can tell what may be the eff :ct on his self~control of a long course of studied insults and provocation on the‘ part of a worthless wife against her husband persevered in day by day, l for months at: even years at a stretch. Sir Henry Smith, in his virtuous indignation with Crippen, makes no I allowance for desperate circumstances like these. He is angry with Crippen on account of his coolness in the witness-box. 1 whlch he calls an outrage, and he sp- parcntly regards it as a distinct aggra- vation of his conduct that he should have sworn to love and cherish at the altar the wife whom he subsequently i put to death. 1 . . A__.__a.... on ma fhof ' “clc u; A..- w-_.-___- _ What Crippen actual‘y did, and for which he suffered dzath, was to kill a. wife whom he hated for the sake of a woman whom he loved. Probably of [all the murders that are committed under the sun, in one country or an- other, there is no more common type ‘of murder than this. It was the irony of Crippen’s fate that he did not meet No. 2 until after he had met No. 1. Had such been his good fortune he would probably have lived a life not better nor worse than his neighbors. and have enjoyed with the best of them the reputation of a contented, law-abiding citzen. I am convinced from such experience as I have had of criminal courts, extending over many years, that what a man murderously inclined really dreads is not death, but pain. The spectre oi death, though it can always be conjured up. is too remote and shadowy to have much effect on the nerves of a man in the enjoyment of full and vigorous health. Not so with pain. There is no imagination so dull that it cannot take in the ter- rors cf the "cat"; and I believe if such punishment could be made part of the sentence, even without abolishing capi- tal punishment, the deterrent effect I would be unmistakable.

They were to me absolutely irrelevant. ‘93 __J .‘_ I think even Crippen’s courage. won- lerful as it was, would have quailed on that dark and wintry morning, had he Known that he would have to endure a flogging before he was hung. And had he been asked which he feared mostâ€"the physical pain of the lash or the death to followâ€"can any- one doubt what his answer would have been?

It can be accurately measured. and it is found to traverse a. distance of 186,300 miles in‘ a. single second of time. Even at such ‘ a_speed. the light leaving Alpha Cen- taur! takes three years to reach the earth. It the star were suddenly blot~ ted out from its place in the sky, three whole years would pass before we be- came aware or the loss. The star is 275,000 times more distant from our solar system than is the sun from the earth. In other words, to reach Alpha Centauri, the nearest star. would re- quire a measuring rod twenty-five mil- lion millions of miles in length.
