As conducted In the courts, the s ealled expert testimony has become a farce becausc of the cter of the handwriting cxperts, medical experts and allenists who for special fees have | been willing to antagonize and swear out of court the class of men who support the state until tils is regarded as a form of recognizable but unendurable corruption. The New York State Bar association hes come out against it for the pur- pose of Umiting the number of ex- perts who shall be called, not as wit- nesees, but as appointees of the court to get at the true facts, and to be pald by the county the sum fixed by the court, no wiiness being entitled to more than one ordinary witness fee. To quote from a report of the bar committee, which led to the subse- quent draft of the bill and presenta- tlon to the assembly: “It 1s within he power ‘of judges at nist prius to require a, greater degree of competence upon the part of persons claiming to be experts by the simple but effectual method of defining to a jury with force and pre cision the distinction between a ness proved to be thoroughly quali- fled to speak upon the subject regard- ing which his testimony is offered and one whose claim to speak is -predi- oated principally upon the fact that he s paid to do so. “If trial judges will pursue this course and gre sustained in so doing by the appellate bench, courts of jus- tiee will he rid of corrupt and worth- less go-called experts, provided the judges themselves are animated solely by a wish to see justice prop- erly administered.” To emphasize the thoroughnpess of the committee's deliberations, we sball quote a few more lines, in con- clusion, as follow. “Nor is the bar blameless. Not only do some of its members connive at the hiring of corrupt and incompetent so-called experts, but they artfully and selfishly cultivate and largely are responsible for the fallacy that a wit- ness 1 to be discredited if he can be disconcerted (‘rattled). Sei- entific opinion, to.be of controlling value, can be given only under con- ditfons of mental repose.” This is a commendable movement on the part of the New York State Bar assoclation, and it ought to spread through all the states 'of the union. Machinery to defeat the ends of jus- tice should be reduced to the mini- mum, HUMAN LIFE HELD CHEAP. Lynchings and brutal and cowardly murders are everyday affairs in this country, and the per cent. of convic- tlons and executions are 5o smal] that the ‘crimes against the lives of the innoeent ‘seem to be on the increase. It is nothing unusual for aged per- sons to be murdered for their money, @s a couple was at Faston, Pa., last ‘week; and @ man on his way to get medicine at night for a sick child in e New Jersey town was held up and killed. There is no “unwritten law” for' the widows and orphans, or be- reaved parents, while there is too anuch of it for the dissolute charac- ters and emotionally insane murderers of their fellow men. Eyery time there is a travesty upon Justice like the Haing trial human life in this country !s cheapened and Judge TLynch’'s methods of dealing with cit- fzens encouraged. This letting men gullty of the most deliberate murders escape upon speclal pleas s a dis- grace to the courts and to the coun- try. A hard-hearted murderer like Hains laughs at a soft-hearted jury like the one which ecquitted him. It is time that public sympathy stood for the protection of life and the support of law and order. When It does mur- ders will begin to decrease and cow- ardly villains will cease to laugh at the law and to take the settlement of affairs into their own hands. Colonel Watterson is out after the sealp of the Tennossee golfer Who dares to play the game on Sunday. Such g fellow, he declares, should be put in the Tennessee legislature. In fts sympathy for the Italian suf- ferers the country has almost lost sight of the famine-cursed Armenians on their barren, snow-covered -moun- tain sides. ‘Thieves chloroformed the dogs and then proceeded to biow open the safe | of ¢ business place. They let no small - ‘obstacles interfere with business. now | AIR NAVIGATION RECOGNIZED. The government has long been en- couraging the invention of heavier than alr ships which the Wrights have finally brought to recognition and per- manent use. Congress has appropriated three- fourths of a million for airships in the army appropriation bill, which is just keeping in step with England, France and German Count Zepplin's airship has been the most wonderful fiyer yet sent up, as it stays up many hours and goes from and returns to its statiom like a mo- tor carriage. In the demonstrations made of the aeroplane of the Wright brothers at Fort Meyer last summer, there was sufficient suggestiveness of the uses to which the flylng machine may be put to render it imperative that the Unit- ed States government should be in a position of preparedness to take ad- vantage immediately of new develop- ments. The possibility cannot be ig- nored that the airship within a few vears may be able to put the most powerful battleship that floats in wa- ter instantly out of service. Fifty pounds of dynamite accurately drop- ped from a height of 800 feet in.the air upon the deck of a Dreadnought, would demonstrate the inappropriate- ness of the name, While the bill was dodged by a great many representatives, there appears to be no reason why the government should not keep abreast of the times, in air navigation as well as wireless telegraphy and other things, AS GOOD AS RICE BIRDS, It has been disclosed by the Danbury Evening News that In that section of the state the English sparrow is as good on toast as & rice bird, and per- haps they might eqfal the rail for bird ple butlding. The News says “The hunter sald to its reporter that he was gathering enough of the birds to make a ple, and he sald thdt sparrows were just as good to eat as rice birds. Asked if he was aware that there a city ordinance which prevented hunting in the city limits, or the discharge of firearms, he sald the birds were on raliroad property and he had received permission to Killthem. He hoped to be able to gecure enough to make a large ple and it was evident that he did because he ceased shooting a few minutes later.” The plentifulness of the birds here- | abouts ought to prompt bird pie lovers to try the experiment. The opportuni- ties for killing the birds are so many that the acquirement of bird ple ought not to be a difficult task, KEEPING THEM GUESSING. Governor Lilley is celebrated for keeping his own counsel and those are anxious concerning the ap- pointments to be made get no com- fort. The Courant, commenting upon the situation, says “Over east they have been talking of Frank T. Brown of Norwich as a possibility in case the two new seats were constructed. Mr. Brown in a modest way has let it be known that he is not an applicant, The fact is wel] known that, if he had had any desire to be a superior court judge, he would have been appoinfed by Governor Woodruff. It is generally understood that the position was offered to him. Mr. Brown is univer- sally conceded to be the leading law- yer east of the Connecticut river and he would grace the bench, superior or supreme, as might be. It is one thing to offer a man of his practice a job and gnother to get him to take it “Indeed, it is not everybody to whom n the chief justiceship is offered who jumps at it. It may not be re- membered now that when Morgan G. Bulkeley was governor he offered that highest office in the state to Nathaniel Shipman, Charles E. Perkins and Charles J. Cole, and not one of the three would say yes, At that time, however, the office did not carry the lary that now goes with it. There abundance of guessing what Lilley will do, and appar- is Governor ently he is going to let them guess an until he is ready to tell.” Governor Lilley sald on Tuesday: “T am looking for the tallest legal tim- ber in Connecticut, and my intention is to give the qualified men that I can get to take the judgeships. I have not promised a n, and I have not fully made up mind whom I shall appoint.” I this the governor is pleasing the m people regardless of their political procltvities. EDITORIAL NOTES.

E. E. Browx, Easton, N. H. Hood’s Sarsaparilla effects its won- derful cures, not simply because it contains sarsaparilla but because it combines the utmost remedial values of more than 20 different ingredients, each greatly strengthened and en- riched by this peculiar combination. These ingredients are the very reme- dies that successful physicians pre- scribe for the same diseases and ail- ments. There 18 no real substitute for Hood's Sarsaparflla.

A TELLING SHOT shadows of the woods. And Bradford poke about it feelingly. “Ill just see what I've got,” he re- marked to the man as he went into the dark room after dinner, “because I promised one to a friend, but a car- riage came along and spoiled my only good chance. Say, you want to come in with me? Wel And he and an idler entered the stuffy little closet. “They're just as I expected,” he con- tinued, as the first two exposures came up swiftly out of the mysterious fog. “The first has a beastly expression, you'll see, and the second is John Gil- Fln‘s ride to Ware. The third i= a ittle slower in coming because the light got so thin, and I don't care about it anyway. 'It's a wonder that the horse clwex the string. He might have tangled the string about his foot and brought the camera down smash. People oughtn't to go driving careless- 1y like that along an unfrequented road. “Ah, here it comes! Gad, but it's to be a pretty negative! As soft as vel- vet; focus was a little too sharp on those others; and here they've had the brass to come along and take my plate. It's & man and a girl, of course.” The disdain increased in Bradford’s tone. “I might have known it was a man and a girl. He's got his arm around her, too. Bah! Gad! I believe he's kissing her.” Bradford smote the table in_delight. “If it's only someone around here, wom't it be a treasure! Yes; I'll take it out of my hypo in a minute.

Tt was a beautiful picture—the best one he had ever taken. He gazed at it an instant, and then, as he recognized the girl's feat- ures, he let it fall shivering on the hard, stone floor. “That's the end of it,” he mumbled, as the idler gave an exclamation of dismay, spilling de- veloper over his flannéis as he turned. “What a pity,” sald the idler, “and you hadn’t found out who they were! Well, you haye your own pictures—the ones you promised—anyhow.’ “That's so; 1 have my pictures,” and as the idler led the way out of the dark room, Bradford's heel ground in- to atoms ail that was left of the tellirg shot—Boston Post. 2670 CHILD’S DRESS.

Yale has decided to sell at least a part of the land on Prospect Hill, which has been held till the university could find some specific use for it. None is in sight, and the university. harrassed by clamors of taxation from the city, making plans to place a of the property on the market. land em- braces ;5 acres of thé most desirable residential section of the city. It is bounded by Prospect, Canner, St. Ro-| | nan and Highland streets and is esti- mated at between $150,000 and $260,- 000 In value. The city has grown so fast in recent years that there are com- paratively few bullding lots in its lim- its, and the fact that Yale holds tnis large tract, without definite object, has aroused criticism from residents, be- cause university property is not sub- ject to taxation. The land was given to Yale by Oliver Winchester, founder of the Winchester Repeating Arms company. He presented it for astro- nomical laboratory purposes.
