WHAT WE CAN DO. § THE public draws a long breath of reassurance and hope that the would-be assassin’s bullet has failed seriously to harm the | full and vigorous life at which it was aimed, the old problem presents itself anew: How can we protect our men in public life from the dangerous obsessions of weak, overwrought minds? More and more we are forced to the hard conclusion that there is no sure way. The bodyguards, the rigors of secret police, that eur- round foreign potentates are repellant to our national instinete and | distasteful to our public men. We are proud that in this country of freedom and tolerance a man may go among his fellows and speak his mind on the highest matters of policy and estatecraft without suffer- ing greater violence than honest blows of mind upon mind and opinion | againat opinion. | Yet, among a hundred million people, there is always the danger | of the unbalanced mind in which the reiteration of an idea, the din- | Ning of a phrase, tle chance of a dream may stir up an insanity as dan- gerous in its effects as the violent frenzy of the lover mad with jeal- ousy or the raving lunatic who sees every man about to murder him. A diseased brain distorts even the highest principles and sanctions to | dire ends. How many assassins have claimed that the Bible directed them! Nor does it seem to matter whether governments and beliefs he free or tyrannical. A Ravaillac strikes down a Henry IV., a Brutus | Stabs a Caesar, Charlotte Corday kills a Marat, an anarchist hurle a bomb at a Caar-—and we blame the government, the system, the prin- | Ciple of oppression involved. Yet, plainly, under our own enlightened | institutions may develop a mania impelling an assassin to a decd that | trikes a vicious blow at the very institutions he imagines himself to be defending.

SPANIARD heard or read or dreamed that somewhere there was a foun- tain whose waters were the waters of eternal youth, and that a man who bathed or drank there would emerge gloriously young. He was getting along in years, this Span- jard—Juan Ponce de Leon—and in 1512 he set out in seach of the Fountain of Youth. Tho quest brought him to a peninsula which he mistook for a big island. He landed there on Easter Day (“Pascua Florida” in Spanish) and found masses of flowers growing everywhere. From the day and from | the flowers he named the place “Florida,” which in Spanish means “flow- jery.” Ponce de Leon found “The Island of Florida” and there he found | death-onot the magic fountain, . For years thereafter there was no permanent colony there. None till |St. Augustine was settled in 1565. Spaniards made the region a pathway iin their crazy treasure hunts and they scoured tt for Indian slaves. A [colony of French Huguenots came thither for refuge and built a village. A Spanish leader burned the village and hanged the Huguenots; explaining hs hanged them “Not as Frenchmen but as Lutherans.” Whereat another French- man avenged his compatriots by falling upon this Span- A Grim | Jest. sh force and hanging all of them that did not fall by No.8—FLORIDA. the swerd. In grim frony he explained that he killed them “Not as Spanish but as assassinse’ For the next century Florida was a storm centre of fights among French, Spanish and English settlers and local Indians. Spain did little to improve the place. Then, in 176%, Florida was ceded by Spain to | England in exchange for Cuba. And 25,000 white settlers hurried thither, But twenty years later it was ceded back to Spain and most of its English settlers promptiy decamped.
