IT is impossible to read and weigh the facts in connection with the convic tion of Oscar Slater in May, 1909. at the high court in Edinburgh, without feeling deeply dissatisfied with the pro ceedings, and morally certain that justice was not done. Under the circumstances of Scotch law I am not clear how far any i temedy exists, but it will, in my opinion, ! be a serious scandal if the man be al i lowed upon such evidence to spend his ' life in a convict prison. The verdict I which led to his condemnation to death, ’ was given by a jury of fifteen, who voted: Nine for “Guilty," five for “Not proven” one for “Not guilty." Under English law, this division of I opinion would naturally have given cause for a new trial. In Scotland the man was • condemned to death, he was only re prieved two days before the execution, and he is now working out a life sentence in Peterhead convict establishment. How far the verdict was a just one, the reader J may judge for himself when he has pe rused a connected story of the case. There lived in Glasgow, in the year 1908, an old maiden lady named Miss Marion Gilchrist. She had lived for 30 f ears in the one fiat, which was on the first floor in 15 Queen’s terrace. The flat above hers was vacant, and the only im mediate neighbors were a family namell . dams, living on the ground floor below, tiieir house having a separate door, which was close alongside the flat en- ■ trance. The old lady had one servant, named i Helen Gamble, who was a girl 21 years ’ —1 Milady’s Toilet Table (By Mme. D'Mille.) j "For dark and discolored patches, sal lowness and complexion blemishes, there is nothing better than a lotion made by dissolving a package of mayatone in a half pint of witch hazel. It gives a more youthful color and smoother finish than any face powder, and will not rub oft or show. It keeps the skin soft and satiny. “On every toilet table there should be a jar of Mother's salve. You can't look your : best when suffering, and Mother's Salve relieves pain almost instantly. Rub on affected part for headache, neuralgia, rheumatism, sore muscles, bruises, stiff neck, cold in the chest, or pains and aches in back or joints. "Don't catch cold washing your head Anyhow, water dulls and deadens the hair, and dry shampooing is preferred To make a fine shampoo powder, just mix 4 ounces of orris root with a package of genuine therox Sift over head, brush out. and your scalp is clean and your hair beautifully lustrous, bright, wavy and ■ easy to do up.

This girl had been with Miss Gilchrist for three or four years. By all accounts Miss Gilchrist was a most estimable person, leading a quiet and uneventful life. She was comfortably off, and she had one singular characteris tic for a lady of her age and surroundings, in that she had made a collection of jew elry of considerable value. These jewels, which took the form of brooches, rings, pennants, etc., were bought at different times, extending over a considerable number of years, from a reputable jew eler. Her Jewelry. 1 lay stress upon as some wild rumor was circulated at the time that the old lady might herself be a criminal re ceiver. Such an idea could not be enter tained. She seldom wore her jewelry, save in single pieces, and as her life was a retired one, it is difficult to see how any one outside a very small circle could have known of her hoard. The value of this treasure was about three thousand pounds. It was a fearful joy which she snatched from its possession, for she more than once expressed apprehension that she might be attacked and robbed. Her fears had the practical result that she attached two patent locks to her front door, and that she arranged wflth the Adams family underneath that in case of alarm she would signal them by knocking upon the floor. It was the household practice that Gam ble, the maid, should go out and get an evening paper for her mistress about 7 o'clock each day. After bringing the paper, she then usually went aut again upon the necessary shopping. This rou tine was followed upon the night of De cember 21. She left her mistress seated by the fire in the dining room, reading a magazine. Lambie took the keys with her, shut the fiat door, closed the hall door downstairs, and was gone about ten minutes upon her errand. It Is the events of those ten minutes which form the tragedy and the mystery which were so soon to engage the attention of the pub lic. According to the girl s evidence, it was a minute or two before 7 when she went out. At about 7 Arthur Adams and his two sisters were in their dining room, immediately below the room in which the old lad> had been left. Suddenly they heard “a noise from above, then a very heavy fall, and then three sharp knocks.” They were alarmed at the sound, and the young man at once set off to see if all was right. He ran out of his hall door, through the hall door of the flats, which was open, and so up to the first floor, where he found Miss Gilchrist's door shut. He rang three times, without an answer From within, however, he heard a sound which he com pared to the bteaking of sticks He im agined. therefore, that the servant girl was within, and that she was engaged in household duties. THE MAID EXPLAINS. After waiting for a minute or two, he seems to have convinced himself that all was right. He, therefore, descended again and returned to his sisters, who persuaded him to go up once more to the flat. This he did. and rang for the fourth time. As he was standing with his hand upon the bell, straining his ears and hearing nothing, some one approached up the stairs from below. It was the young servant maid. Helen I<ambie, returning from her errand. The two held counsel for a moment. Young Adams described the noise which had been heard Lambie said that the pulleys of the clothes lines in the kitchen must have given way. It. was a singular explanation, since the kitchen was not above the dining room of the Adamses, and one would not expect any great noise from the fall of a cord which suspended sheets or towels However, it was a moment of agitation, and the girl may have said the first ex planation which came into her head She lhen put her keys Into the two safety locks and opened the door At this point there is a curious little discrepancy of evidence laimble is pre chest after it was all over. Extract from the day-after .special: “Oh, Billy darling, It was a SWEET game—a perfectly bully game. We had the car all a-flutter with pen nants —our own. of course—all over the place. I saw Puss and Hoppy and Fat and ALL the fellows—why. the whole world was there but you. pared to swear that she remained upon the mat beside young Adams. Adams is equally' positve that she walked several paces down the hall. This hall was lit by a gas jet which, turned half up. and shining through a colored shade, gave a sufficient, but not a brilliant, light. Says Adams: "I stood at the door on the threshold, half in and half out, and just when the girl got past the clock to go into the kitchen, a well dressed man appeared. 1 did not suspect him, and she said nothing; and he came up to me quite pleasantly. I did not suspect anything wrong for the minute. I thought the man was going to speak to me till he got past me, and then I suspected some thing wrong, and by that time the girl ran into the kitchen and put the gas up and said it was all right, meaning her pulleys. I said: 'Where Is your mis tress?' and she went into the dining room. She said: 'Oh! come here!’ 1 just went in and saw this horrible spectacle." The Murderer. The spectacle in question was the poor old lady lying upon the floor close to the chair In which the servant hail last seen her.

Her injuries were frightful, nearly every bone of her face and skull being smashed. In spite of her dreadful wounds she lingered for a few minutes, but died without showing any sign of consciousness. The murderer, when he first appeared had emerged from one of the two bed rooms at the back of the hall, the larger or spare bedroom, not the old lady’s room. On passing Adams upon the door mat. which he had done with the utmost coolness, he had at once rushed down the stairs. It was a dark and drizzly' evening, and it seems that he made his way along one or two quiet streets until he was lost or two quiet streets until he was lost in in mire crowded thoroughfares. He had left no weapon nor possession of any sort in the old lady's hat, save a box of matches with which he had lit the gas in the bedroom from which he had come. In the bedroom a number of articles of value, including a watch, lay upon the dressing table, but none of them had been touched. Continued in Next Issue. * Little Bobbie’s Pa < By William F. Kirk MA & me found out yesterday that Pa dident know anything about cows & calfs.

Whooping cough is the subject of more quaint superstitions than almost any other disease.

In Cornwall the child is fed with bread and butter w hich has been passed three times under the belly of a piebald horse.
