'I I p admirable memorial for a reprieve
up by the solicitors for tho de-
' was signed by 20,000 members of
•I , public, and had the effect of chang-
• g the death sentence to one of penal
..rtitude for life.
The sentence was passed on May 6. For
■ wenty days the man was left in doubt,
and the written reprieve only arrived on
Mav 2ti. within twenty-four hours of the
tiim for the execution. On July 8 Slater
wi!S conveyed to the Peterhead convict
prison. There he has now been for three
~; lr s. and there be still remains.
I an not help in my own tnind compar
er the case of Oscar Slater with another,
which I had occasion to examine—that of
George Edalji.
I must admit that they are not of the
same class. George Edalji was a youth
, f exemplary character. Oscar Slater
was a blackguard. George Edalji was
p'njsically incapable of the crime for
which he suffered three 'years’ imprison
ment. years for which he has not re
ceived. after his innocence was estab
lished, one shilling of compensation from
the nation. Oscar Slater might con
ceivably have committed the murder, but
the balance of proof and probability seems
entirely against it.
Tims, one can not feel the same burn
ing sense of injustice over the matter.
And yet I trust for the sake of our char
acter not only for justice, but for intel
ligence. that the judgment may in
way be reconsidered and the man’s
present punishment allowed to atone for
these irregularities of life which helped
to make his conviction possible.
Before leaving the case, it is interest
ing to see how far this curious crime may
be reconstructed and whether any possi
ble light can Ire thrown upon it. Using
set nd-hand material, one can tftt hope
•<i do more than indicate cartain possibil
ities which may already have been con
sidered and tested by the police.
THE POLICE WAY.
The trouble, however, with all police
: rosecutions is that, having once got what
they imagine to be their man, they are
not very open to any line of investiga
tion which might lead to other conclu
sions. Everything which will not fit into
the official theory is liable to be ex
eluded.
One might make a few isolated com
ments on the case which may at least give
rise to some Interesting trains of thought.
one question which has to be asked was
whether the assassin was after the
jewels at all. It might be urged that
the type of man described by the spec
tators was by no means that of the or
dinary thief.
When he reached the bed room and lit
the gas, he did not at once seize the
watch and rings which were lying open
ly exposed upon the dressing table. He
did not pick up a half sovereign which
was lying on the dining room table. His
attention was given to a wooden box,
the lid of which he wrenched open.
'This. I think, was "the breaking of
sticks” heard by Adams.) The papers
in it were strewed on the ground. Were
the papers his object, and the final ab
straction of one diamond brooch a mere
blind? Personally. I can only point out
the possibility of such a solution.

already found himself in a desperate sit
uation. it might be said also that save
a will, it would be difficult to Imagine
any paper which would account for such
an enterprise, while Jewels, on the other
hand, were an obvious mark for whoever
knew of their existence.
I resuming that the assassin was indeed
after the jewels, it is very instructive to
note his knowledge of their location, and
also its limitations. Why’ did he go
stiaight into the spare bed room where
the jewels were actually kept?
The same question may be asked with
equal force if we consider that he was
after the papers. Why the spare bed
room ?
THE CRIMINAL.
Any knowledge gathered from outside
(by a watcher in the backyard, for ex
ample) would go to the length of ascer
taining which was the old lady’s room.
One would expect a robber who had
gamed his information thus to go straight
to that chamber. But this man did not
do so. He went straight to the unlikely
loom in which both jewels and papers
actually were. Is not this remarkably
suggestive? Does it not pre-suppose a
previous acquaintance with the inside of
the flat and the ways of its owner?
But note the limitations of the knowl
edge. If it were the jewels lie was after,
he knew what room they were in, but
not in what part of the room. A fuller
knowledge would have told him they were
kept in the wardrobe. And yet he
searched a box.
If he was after papers, his information
was complete; but if he was indeed after
ihe jewels, then we can say’ that he had
the knowledge of one who is conversant,
but not .intimately conversant, with the
household arrangement.
To this we may add that he would seem
to have shown ignorance of the habits of
the. inmates, or he W’ould have surely
chosen Dambie’s afternoon or evening out
for his attempt, and not have done it at
a time when the girl was bound to be
back within a very few minutes.
What men had ever visited the house?
The number must have been very limited,
what friends? what tradesmen? what
plumbers? Who brought back the jewels
after they had been stored with the jew
elers when the old lady’ went every year
to the country?
Lines of Inquiry.
One is averse to throw out vague sus
picions which may give pain to innocent
people, and yet It. is clear that there ard
lines of inquiry’ here that should be foil
lowed up, however negative the results.
How did the murderer get in if I.am
ble is correct In the thinking that she
•shut the doors?
I cannot get away from the conclusion
that he had duplicate keys. In that case
all becomes comprehensible, for the old
lady—whose faculties were quite normal—
would hear the lock go and would not be
alarmed, thinking that Lamhie had re
turned before her time. Thus she woud
only know her danger when the murderer
rushed into the room and would hardly
have time to to rise, receive the first
blow, and fall, as she was found, beside
the chair, upon which she had been sit
ting. That is intelligible.
But if he had not the keys, consider the
difficulties. If the old lady had opened
the flat door her body would have been
found in the passage. Therefore, the po
lice were driven to the hypothesis that
the old lady heard the ring, opened the
lower stair door from above (as can be
done in all Scotch flats), opened the flat
door, never looked over the lighted stair
to see who was coming up, but returned
to her chair and her magazine, leaving
the door open, and a free entrance to the
murderer.
This is possible, but is it not in the
highest degree improbable?
Miss Gilchrist was nervous of robbery
and would not neglect obvious precau
tions.
The ring came immediately the
maid’s departure. She could hardly have
thought that it was her returning, the
less so as the girl had the keys and would
not need to ring. If she went as far as
the hall door to open it, she only had to
take another to see who was ascend
ing the stair. Would she not have taken
it if it were only to say:
"What, have you forgotten your keys?"
That a nervous old lady should throw’
open both doors, never look to see who
her visitor was, and return to her din
ing room is very hard to believe.
AN ANALYSIS.
And look at it front the murderer's
point of View. He had planned out his
proceedings. It is notorious that it is
the easiest thing in the world to open
the lower door of a Scotch flat. The
blade of a pen knife will do that.
If he was to depend upon ringing to
get at his victim, it was evidently bet
ter for him to ring at the upper door,
as otherwise the chance would seem very
great that she would look down, see him
coming up the stair, and shut herself In.
On the other hand, if he were at the
upper door, and she answered it, he had
only to push his way in. Therefore, the
latter would be his course if he rang at
all.
And yet the police theory is that though
he rang, he rang from below.
It is not what he would do, and if he
did do it, it would be most unlikely that
he would get in. How could he suppose
that the old lady would do so incredible
a thing as leave her door open and return
to her calling? If she waited, she might
even up to the last instant have shut
the door in his face
If one weighs all these reasons, one
can hardly fall, I think, to come to the
conclusion that the murderer had keys,
and that the old lady never rose from
Imr chair until the last instant, because,
hearing the keys in. the door, she took it
for granted that the maid had come back.
But if he had keys, how did he get
the mold, and how did he get them made?
There Is a line of inquiry there.
The only conceivable alternatives are,
that the murderer was actually concealed
in the flat when Lainble came out, and
of that there is no evidence whatever,
or tljat the visitor was some one whom
Hie Old lady knew, In which case he
would naturally have been admitted.

The Hysterics of Youth
By Beatrice Fairfax
THOSE who have traveled the trou- j
bled path of youth, when one
doesn't know what one wants
and is prodigal with emotions in trying
to find out, will smile Indulgently over
the following letter:
There Is so much in it of the human
nature that the years have taught those
who are older to guide and control. It
is like Youth!
"I am a young girl of Sixteen and
until a few weeks ago had been goint
with a young man one year my senior.
Some childish misunderstanding had
broken our sincere friendship, and since
then we just greet each other when we
meet and pass on.
“Today as 1 was walking along the
street I chanced to meet him. He was
with another girl. He tipped his hat! 1
looked at him and at the girl, and much
to my horror I burst out laughing. 1
can not comprehend whatever pos
sessed .me to do so. 1 am sure it was
not jealousy (for 1 pity the girl), and
everj time I think of It I just laugh
and laugh. Can you tel! what it Is that
makes me laugh?”
It Is the hysterics of youth. You
laughed because you are young. You
wanted to show by an indifferent smile
that you didn't care. And that smile
became a laugh! Being very young,
you laugh immoderately, and you cry
to excess. <
You are like a swing that flies back
and forth as far as the rope permits.
When you get older, and it is “time to

swinging nears an end, there will be

"Gertrude” Writes: "Can you prescribe
a remedy for catarrh. I suffer constantly
with headache and pain across my eyes.
My breath is very bad, which annoys me
greatly.”
Answer: For catarrh and bad breath I
always recommend the use of antiseptic
Vilane powder. Ask your druggist for an
original 2-ounce package of antiseptic Vi -
lano powder. Make a catarrh balm by
mixing a level teaspoonful of the powder
with 1 ounce of vaseline, or lard will do
just as well, and use as far up as possi
ble in the nostrils several times a day.
Then take a pint of warm water and one
half teaspoonful of the powder and use as
a snuff from the palm of the hand. If
these directions are followed you will soon
be cured of this dreadful disease.
