Courts Blamed For Lynching. Galveston, Tex., March.—The lynching of Allen Brooks, negro, at Dallas by a mob of several thousand citizens, directed attention to the con- ditien of the criminal calendar in Texas. Leaders of the mob declared the courts and lawyers of the State are trifling with justice, and pointed to the jails crowded with criminals who spend many months and some of them years fighting their cases. An analysis of the condition in Texas shows there are 428 persons in the county jails charged with capital of- fenses, which include murder, as- sault, robbery by firearms and brib- ing witnesses in capital cases. Of these there are 283 charged with murder, thirty charged with attacks on women, seventy-five robbery by deadly weapons and forty for bribing witnesses in capital offenses. Only thirty-seven have been convicted, the others have never been tried or are pending on appeal. Eighty-three of the crimes charged were committed within the last year, 130 within two years and seventy more than two years ago.

Bullock & Keyes THEY SEEM TO DOUBT PEARY. The Explorer’s Friends Refused to Submit the Pole Records to the Sub-committee on Naval Affairs and There It Rests. Washington, March.—Commander Peary’s sledding over the ice hum- mocks of the arctic seas on his way to the North Pole could not have been very much rougher than the sledding now being experienced in Repre- sentative Butler’s sub-committee of the House Naval Committee by the proposition to honor and award Peary for his discovery. The sub-commit- tee has been wrestlingwith this prop- osition for weeks without getting anywhere in particular until Friday, when it went bang into an apparently impassable ice barrier in the shape of a refusal on the part of Peary’s friends to submit the explorer’s data to the sub-committee for such use, public or private, as the sub-commit- tee might see fit to make of them. Some of the members were inclin- ed to yield the point to Peary’s friends, but Representative Macon, of Arkansas, declared . himself entirely out of the expedition under these con- ditions and quit the committee room in anything but an arctic frame of mind. Officials of the Coast and Geodetic Survey who had appeared before the committee to tell what they knew about Peary’s evidence that he had reached the pole had not given members as much satisfaction as had been expected. They had ac- knowledged in effect that in the last analysis no real proof that Peary had reached the pole in the nature of things could be expected. Peary’s word would really have to be taken-for it finally. It was admit- ted that an expert scientist who was familiar with arctic conditions could sit down and concoct a series of alleg- ed observations showing he had reached the pole which no other scientist could prove to be fraudulent. It was also disclosed that when the committee of the National Geographic Society examined Peary’s proofs, it had before it nothing which carried absolute conviction of the truth of Peary’s statement and it had to rely finally on Peary’s word. As to the instruments carried by Peary and which the committee inspected in a trunk at the Union Station here, they showed absolutely nothing and could show nothing. In view of these statements by the government scientists, the members of the subcommittee or at least a ma- jority of them, felt they were in al very poor position to go into the) House and advocate the passage of a bill giving Peary the thanks of Con- gress, a medal and perhaps the rank of rear admiral in recognition of his services to the country and to science in discovering the North Pole. They all felt they would look rather foolish when some one asked them how they know Peary discoyered the pole and where the proofs were. So the sub- committee adjourned until next week. It is probable it will at least insist that Peary himself come before the com- mittee and give all the light he can orally, as well as show and explain his observations before further steps are taken looking to action rewarding and honoring him.

Says John D. Can’t Corner Joy. Baltimore, Md., March 7.—That John D.

He has now pass- ed away and his political constituents gone, and his memory faded, and I doubt to-day that there is even a mon- ument that marks his grave. “I remember distinctly he called on me a day or two after his second defeat. He told me of the trials, suf- ferings, tribulations, vicissitudes and afflictions that rest on the Presidents of the United States. “T merely tell this, my brethren, to show you that you should not place hope in temporal things or seek tem- poral favors. You may have pleas- ures, health, wealth, but you may be robbed of these. You cannot, how- ever, be robbed of the joy that springs from a clear conscience.
