Thirtytwo years in the Western penitentiary was the sentence imposed by Judge James R. MacFarlane upon John Patterson, aged 27, the Belle Bridge bandit who assisted in the holdup of a street car at Boston, Pa... several months ago, and was also 'mplicatel Jn other robberies and holdups iu that vicinity. Judge McFarlane declared that Patterson was a menace to society and should be shut up.' "I could give you 150 years for your work," declared Judge MacFarlane, "and I am not sure that you should not get about fifty years. When you get out you will be a comparatively old man, and perhaps by that time it will not be dangerous to permit you to have your liberty." 1 MANIAC.

HOLDS TO ROOSEVELT IDEA MOTHER SHOULD SHIRK NO RESPONSIBILITY, 1 CLAIMS HER MAJESTY AND SHOULD CARE FOR HER OFFSPRING. San Sebastian, Spain, Sept 19. Queen Victoria is a firm believer In mothers caring for their own children, and she has decided views on woman's mission In life. The Queen gave audience to some English ladles of title, friends of her youth, with whom she had consorted as Princess Ena of Battenberg. In talking with these women the Queen took occasion to express her views on motherhood and the did so quite frankly. She spoke so frankly, In fact, as to make it somewhat uncomfortable for her visitors. Opinions Like Those of Roosevelt. She condemned the gay butterfly lives that they and other women of fashion are leading and showed that she has opinions fully as strong and decided as those of President Roosevelt of the United States on race suicide. She told them that it was woman's duty to perpetuate her race, and that it should be her purpose In life to help bring Into the world a race of strong virile men. But she assured them woman's work did not end with the bringing of chiidren into the world. The moth-l er must shirk no responsibilities, said j her majesty. She should nurse her own children, watch over them, care! for and protect them, and train themJ CHOLERA EPIDEMIC GROWS IN MANILA Hoped to Check It Before the American Fleet Arrives. Manila. Sept 13.

MT. VERNON CASE CITED.

HOME OF FIRST PRESIDENT YET IN PRIVATE HANDS. AS IS OLD RESIDENCE OF THOMAS JEFFERSON. Washington. D. C. Sept. U. Much interest has been aroused by the offer of Mrs. Russel Sage to do r.ate to the government Constitution Island, which lies n th Hudson river opposite West Point. The opinion is expressed that other fx'ople with money which is burdening them mixht get Ideas from Mrs. Sage as to how to part with it profitably. There are a lot of historic snots scattered throughout the country which ought to belong to the federal government but which congress has not seen Its way to acquire. For example. Mt. Vernon, the home and tomb of Washington, is not federal property. Had It not teen 'or the oarrictic women who compose tae Mt. Vernon Idl Asociatlon thia shrine of Americans and the objective jpint of visitors from all narts cf the world might be la private ownership. The home of Washington might have bean razed t the ground and the remaining ceres of his vast estate divided Into town lots. , There are other snots second la Interest only to Mt Vernon mhlch tbft government ought to own. Montlcello, the home of Jefferson near Char-lottsville.-Virginia. Is owned by Jefferson M. Levy, a wealthy New Yorker and former member of C3ngress. A movemert is now on foot to raise by private subscription enough mcney to purchase the Mrth.nlaoe of Lincoln in Kentucky, and repeated offers have been made to sU to the government the house in Washington in which Lincoln dted. Were It to become fashionable for rich people to buy such places and deed them to the government the people who pay the taxea would cheerfully undertake their maintenance, and the lessons in patriotism for future generations would be worth many times the dollars expended.

The case of Congressman Charles D. Carter, of the Fourth Oklahoma district, has again impressed upon administration officials the desirability of some change In the law respecting the relations of senators and representatives to federal contracts. Mr. Carter is guilty of an offenn against the United States pr- Me bv a fine of $.1,000. yet cH ur moral turpitude is Involved in ... offense. It seems that Mr. Carter Is owner of the building at Afdmore. Okla., In which the postoffice Is located. Mr. Carter has been owner of the building and the postoffice has been located there under lease since 1903. or for more than four years before Mr. Carter became a member of congTess. It Is manifestly absurd that when Oklahoma was admitted as a state and Mr. Carter was elected a member of congress he should be compelled to dispose of the building or the postoffice ' be compelled to find new quarters. y?t the law is specific and allows of no v evasion. ... It is a good principle, of course, that members of congress should not be allowed to use their positions to their own advantage and to the disadvantage, but it Is recognized that the law covering the subject should have more nexability. In this case the lease was made before Mr. Carter had any prospect of being a. member of congress, and if It was an advantageous leas for the government to make It In 1903 it undoubtedly Is an advantageous lease for the government to maintain now. A bill probably will be introduced at the next session of congress providing that any contract with the government may continue to Its expiration, even if during H3 term a party to the contract should become a member of congress.
