CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR HABITUAL CRIMINAL.

The prison congress which met this week in Chicago brought out a number of suggestions which furnish food for thought and are of interest in all sections of the country. Among the questions which aroused the greatest discussion were Attorney General Charles J. Bonaparte's opinion that it is for the welfare of all concerned that the habitual criminal who has proven his disinclination to obey the law by repeated Infractions of the same, should suffer the death pen

General Bonaparte's solution of the habitual criminal problem presents new phases, which while the same idea may have occurred to the minds of many ptrspns, awaited the prison congress of recent date, to bo given public utterance. At a time when there is a general tendency throughout the country to minimize capital punishment, and in many states" to eradicate it altogether, the

attorney general's solution may appear It smacks on its face of the dark ages. backward and certainly is in conflict with

tions. But there can be no question that civilization has bred certain problems of its own and Mr. Bonaparte declares that the "habitual criminal" is one of the excrescences which is the product of over civilization. All the conditions of modern methods as applied to the treatment of criminals, tho attorney general pointed out, serve to foster criminality on tho part of hardened wrongdoers. The

very sanitary precautions which render the latter day prison a fit place of habi tation, are a detriment in certain respects. A century ago a criminal who sue

But such a means of riddance has its objectionable features. The germs of disease a filthy prison contained were spread abroad and the innocent as well as tho guilty suffered; and there is no one in these enlightened days who would approve of allowing prisons to become hotbeds of disease in order to kill off the undesirables. Mr. Bonaparte is no exception to the rule. On the other hand it seems an imposition on tho law-abiding element of a community that it should be forced to foot the bills .year after year for the maintenance of men

Tho Sox got ahead with a great bound yesterday after capturing both games of the double header with Wash ington. The first game came hard, as Johnson, the new recruit, who is of big timber, held them down to six hits, but Smith was in form also and the Nationals got a like number of binglcs. The two i5"ns of the Sox were scored after one maA was out, and ah error, two singles and a long fly brought In the two tallies. The sec ond game was of a different charac ter. Both sides got out their big bats and went at it and both Ed Walsh and Patten were whaled for keeps and driven to the clubhouse. Nick Al trock and Blankenship finished out the game and they both were likewise touched up plenty. But the Sox ex celled with the willow, and twenty-one base hits certainly ought to win any game. Davis was there with five wal lops, including two two-baggers; Hahn had three hits, Including two threesackers; Jones had three, and Dough erty had a like number. Delehanty was likewise there strong, getting four hits, which netted him nine bases, the record for the year. Another chance today to pick up tho games at the same place. Pittsburg had the honor of having a no hit game pitched on their grounds by a new recruit named Maddox. It is the first time in the history of the club that a home pitcher twirled a no hit game on the home grounds. This Maddox was secured from Wheeling and he made the Brooklyn team sit up and take notice. Not even a scratch hit was mado off his delivery. One run did come in when, after a base on balls, the young fellow threw a wide one that sailed by Bergen. Strlcklet was there also in the game and only two hits were made oft him. The fans will watch the next game he pitches and if he gets a swelled nob, the next club will knock him out of the box. St. Louis got In again on the Phillies with old Jack Powell, the discard, pitching like a wizard. Ain't It funny how these old timers come along towards the last of the season? Only two hits were the Thillies able to get off his twisters. And my, how It set them back. In the meantime the Tigers were shutting out the Highlanders and Wild Bill Donovan was pitclhng his usual game, allowing but two hits. Then, too. the Cleveland team was eating up Boston, Joss having the Indian sign on old Cy Young. So today's games may tell some kind of a story for tho dope sheet. The Cubs were idle yesterday on account of wet grounds and will doubly up with Boston today. The latter team has just made a monkey out of the New York sluggers and will put up a fast game. Forty husky young fellows came out for the Illinois university football team and the first practice was pulled off. The cool weather setting in the long haired bunch will now have a chance to get the kinks out. The races down at Columbus were filled with exciting moments yesterday when two accidents, a suspension, and fast time made the spectators glad they were present- The time was exceptionally good on all the heats, eight of them being under 2:06, and the remainder from that to 2:13. Stagg has at last hit on a good idea In the football game after years of trying, and that is to number the ball. At the present writing it is not known whether the idea is original or not. He also thinks a little clor on

WILL HAVEJG SHOW Siler Testimonial MondayNight Has Fine Card.

Packy McFarland and Joe Galllgan. two of the best men of their weight in the country, have been matched for the windup of the Siler testimonial, which will take place Monday night at tho Coliseum. Permission for the bout, the first of its kind held in Chicago in a long time, was secured partly through the intercession of some of the most influential men In Chicago, who consiaereu me cause a worthy one. It is announced. however, that the licensing of the con test does not mean "the lid is off" and that other events of the kind are to be permitted in the future. McFarland and Galllgan are bitter foes in so far as boxing rivalry goes. The former is undefeated, and uanipan's only defeat was at tho hands of McFarland himself. On this occasion Galilean's friends always have Insist ed that Joe was a bit over-confident. Since then he has been trying right along to get a return match. Galll gan, who Is still a youngster, recently has had the benefit of being sparring partner of Batllng Nelson, and undoubtedly has improved even on his former skill. The bout will go six rounds at catch weights.

Not only one of the largest if not the largest but also one of the most rotable crowds will attend Monday night's show that has ever witnessed a boxing contest in this country. Mer chants, bankers and others prominent in a commercial way are among those who have engaged seats, and delega tlons from both the Chicago Athletic association and tho Illinois Ahtletic association will be on hand. the backs of the men might do some good in following the game.

There is Jack Twin Sullivan, Sam Langford and a dozen others, all waiting for a chance, but then Delaney figures that they may have too good a chaoce. Caponl wants more trouble with Papke, and does not hesitate between Ketchell or Joe Thomas. Caponi is sure a good one and a match with any of them would prove a good drawing card. Johnny Summers, Owen Moran and Pat O'Keefe, the English trio of sterl ing little boxers, are coming across for fame and money. It is O'Keefe's first trip.

Children who read this story are recruested to communicate with the author, Mrs. Freeman, in care Lake County Times, giving impressions of it.

(Continued.) The children got permission from this owner to ride the horses whenever they chose, and although Marnie had never been on a horse's back in her life, she was not in the least afraid and before her visit was over she had become very nearly as good a rider as Doris herself. The children took long rides out into the surrounding country but they were always mindful not to over-tax their atient steeds, and to see that they were properly watered if they were gone for long. Frequently they rode into farm ards to allow their horses to drink nd many a pleasant visit had they with the farmers' wives and the little farm children. Marnie thought that next to riding, he pleasantest feature of the farm was feeding the chickens and search ng in the barn and in the made nests for eggs. One day Bhe found ono old hen that had "stolen her nest" up in the hay-loft and Mrs. Jones, the wife of the farmer told her to watch the nest from day to day and perhaps, be fore she had finished her visit the ittle chicks might be hatched. This happened sooner than Marnie had ex pected. A few days after her dis covery when she went to take corn to the old hen, who always pecked at her for her pains, imagining that she had come to do her or her nest fiarm, Marnie heard a faint "peep, peep, and running breathlessly into the house she told Mrs. Jones that she thought tho chicks had come Mrs. Jones accompanied Marnie to the barn and there, sure enough, were seven little bunches of yellow down! Now, you will none of you believe it perhaps, when I tell you that these were the first baby chickens Marnie had ever seen, but such is the case She thought the tiny creatures were just the cunningest things in the world. Doris took as much interest In the brood us did Marnie and the two girls watched and fed the cross old mother hen, who was only cross In her anx lety for her little ones. When Sunday came the big old family "phaeton" was gotten out and Mr. and Mrs. Jones and the two little visitors, together with Mrs. Methven and mademoiselle were bundled Into the heavy vehicle and driven to the tiniest little white church that can possible be imagined. The kindly faced preacher delivered such a sweet simple sermon that Mamie's heart was filled with thankfulness and she was very tnougntiui tor the re mainder of the day. Mrs. Methven had planned a picnic for Monday morning and the chil dren of the neighborhood for several miles around were invited to attend. The party drove on hay-racks to a deep grove of trees, miles away. Mrs. Methven said It was a bit early, for picnics but as the day was very mild, the children did not find the event at all unseasonable. Such a luncheon as was spread under the trees, which were scarcely leaved out, but which were green an bright notwithstanding! Near at hand there was a fine orchard which was fragrant with blossoms. Marnie had never even imagined anything one-half so beautiful. The rosy farmer boys and girls were all elation too, for their holidays were not so frequent that they did not enjoy them to the fullest when they did come. All sorts of old fashioned games were indulged In and then, promptly at noon, the baskets were brought from the wagons, and the goodies within were temptingly arrayed under the eyes of the hungry frolickers. There was cold chicken, ham, jellies, cookies, cake and all sorts of sandwiches, and there was plently of good milk and stuffed eggs and plain hard-boiled eggs, and a number of the children lent a hand in the arranging of these things in true picnic fashion. After they had partaken of the sumptuous feast, Mrs. Methven said she had a surprise for them. There were to be Olympian games, with prizes for the winners. Also other games and contests. "What are Olympian games?" cried the children. Mrs. Methven explained that they were athletic games and jumping and feats of strength. The girls were to compete by themselves and the boys by themselves. The former were given first trial, and the events followed each other in rapid succession, the boys and the girls alternating. A one-hundred yard course was marked off and the girls were told to form in line for a foot-race Immediately a dozen had toed the mark and stood awaiting the word to run. "One, two three, go!" called Mrs. Methven. "Look! See Mamie!" cried one of

"I bet on Alice," called the brother of the last named rai?s in brotherly loyalty to his sister. It was very nearly an even race, but Marnie passed her adversary just as the goal was almost reached. Her reward was a game of "Helma." As a consolation for Alice, Mrs. Methven presented her with a pretty glove-box which pleased the child immensely and which she regarded as very nearly as nice as Mamie's game. But Marnie was looking for ward to the pleasant evenings she and Bertha Baker would spend when her vacation should he over and she would return to the asylum to take up the old routine of her life again. Doris won the prize in archery but insisted upon giving it to the sec ond girl in the contest, as It was a target and bow and quiver full of arrows, of all of which she already had a supply. A prize that fell to Marnie was a pretty lace collar. This she acquired in the spelling contest. For the very little children there were sets of toy dishes, small dolls and other toys and the boys were awarded baseball bats, baseballs,

fishing rods, jack knives, tops andArthur Kendall are the only other new

marbles. They were a tired but a happy crowd of youngsters when at last they returned, just as the setting sun was reddening the sky CHAPTER XVI. One day while the children were yet on the farm, they were sent to inquire after the health of an old lady who lived with her cripple daughter a mile away and who Mrs. Methven had been told was ill. This particular old lady was a very special protege of Mrs. Methven. The latter kept her supplied with warm clothes in the winter and once had engaged a trained nurse to care for her when she had been laid up with Inflammatory rheumatism for several weeks. Mrs. Methven would have driven over herself to look after the old lady (Grandma Bassett as she was called), but a severe headache confined her to her room. Doris and Marnie decided that instead of driving or riding to Grandma Bassett's, they would walk. They were pretty well tired out when they arrived, for the walk was longer than they anticipated and when they started for home, they concluded it would be a good plan to take a short cut. The way lay through a stretch of timber land, which communicated with a deeper forest beyond. The latter had never been much cleared and the trees stood so thickly together that their spreading branches all but shut out the sky. The children were so Interested In plucking the wild flowers which grew in abundance and considerable variety all about that they did not notice how far they had strayed from the "trail" so called because the Indians had used it as a pathway in the early days. Suddenly Marnie exclaimed, "why Doris, how dark it has grown! I didn't know it was late." "That's so," assented Doris. "We must have started later than we thought. I've left my watch at home or I could look and see what time It is." "Let's hurry home, or your mother will be worried," suggested Marnie. So they started in the direction in which they supposed the "trail" lay, only to find the trees more thick and the darkness deeper. "Well, who would have thought we would'nt strike that old trail right away," said Doris with a slight note of anxiety in her voice, for it seemed to get blacker every minute. "Let's try this way," suggested Marnie. "I think we should go more to the right." Mamie's venture only led the chil dren deeper into the forest. After another tack had been tried with sim ilarly discouraging results, they looked at each other with white faces and Doris said faintly: "Marnie, I'm afraid we are lost." "I hardly think that," replied Marnie, trying to act brave, although her voice trembled in spite of herself; and then she added: "Don't lets think we are lost, Doris, because If we think we are, why then we just are. Let's try another way." The other way proved as unavailing as all the previous ones, and sev eral more efforts were made to find

the trail, without success. (To be Continued.)

George B. Miller as Judge Martin and George Scybolt as members of the company. Itecognizing tho tendency of tho times to cheapen prices for sensible, healthy amusements, the managers of the "Uncle Josh Spruceby" company, which appears at Towle's opera house on Thursday, Sept. 23. have decided to appear this season at 10, 20, 30 and 60 cent prices. The wisdom of this move appears to have been Justified by the packed houses that greet the company everywhere. The play is an enjoyable New England comedy-drama and for the past seven years has appeared only at regular prices all over the country. Special scenery, the great sawmill scene, the big operatic orchestra, and a first class company, are still carried, and no attempt has been made to cheapen the attraction on account of playing at popular prices. AT THE CALUMET THEATEE. On Sunday, Sept. 22, Burt L. King, one of the greatest favorites that ever appeared at the Calumet theater during the several years that this theater was the home of a talented and versatile stock company, will return to the South Chicago play house with the musical melodrama, "The Mysterious Burglar." In addition to being a beautiful melodrama "The Mysterious Burglar" Is a musical attraction of much merit and throughout the play half a dozen or more pretty musical numbers by individual members are given, supported by a dazzling chorus. One of the most unique features introduced Is the popular "Teddy Bear" song "Stingy." One of the prettiest stage settings that has been seen at the Calumet in somu time is promised in connection with this piece, and two live Teddy Bears will be seen in the center of the large dazzling chorus.Another strong week-end attraction is assured the patrons in 'Chinatown Charlie," the great racing play. One of the scenes in this play shows the famous Belmont racing track, while the Bcenes from Chinatown are said to be most realistic which have ever been staged. The play Is exciting and intensely Interesting throughout. Chinatown Charlie begins its engagement on Thursday evening, ScpL 28. Weak Hearts Upon the heart action 'depends not only health, hut life.
