" .hay have considerable influence with
the Government in relation to Sir
Roger.
AS a resuit of the present high state
of feelin~ the trial of the Irish knight
may be put off for some time, or at
+ lemst until the unrest in Southern Ire
iand has subsided somewhat
The Express suggests the possibil
ity that Sir Roger may be beheaded
if found gullty, but in other quarters
the belief exists that it would be
wiser (o treat him with leniéncy, as
was the case in South Africa, when
Géneral De Wet, the leader of the
Boer rebels, was captured,
Sir Roger's case is different, how
aver, as regards the political aspect
It is understood that papers implicat
ing prominent Irishmen were found
upon his person
From the official reports and frag
¢ mentary unofficial reports, it is be
lleved that the total casualties in
Du{)hn and Dublin County during the
fighting on Monday and Tuesday were
at least 100
200,000 Troops on Island.
That ghe Government feared that
the uprising might spread into civii
war wag shown by the speed with
. Which trocps and artillery were moved
into Ireland from England, There are
said to be at least 200000 soidlers
{ under arms ‘in all parts of Ireland at
~ the present moment, and prepara
fions have been made by the War Of
; fice to send more if needed,
: In official circles beliéf is expressed
- ihat tranquility will be restored in
Southern Ireland very soon, although
. the uprising will leave behind it more
" bitter hatred than existed before, and
n its wake will follow a condition of
afla}n that will make it necessary for
England to maintain strong bodies of
] ifoops in the island for any future
L umergency.

: By GRENVILLE 8. McFARLAND.,
| WASHINGTON, April 27 .-Whue;
( the corporation men on the Senate
I("ommittee on Judiciary are dt-laylng'
the vote on the question of confirming
Louis D. Brandeis’ appointment to Lhel
SBupreme Court, nther appohnmfims‘
representing the same jnterests arei
working overtime elsewhere. They
have even enlisted the aid of !emi-(,
nine snobbishness. The aid of nuch;
women in the international intrigues |
of the FEuropean courts has long been |
a favorite theme of fictfon .writers, |
| but it 18 a new phase of Americanl
ihullth‘al iiffe. Its introduction heral
' shows how important the corporations
|nnd other special interests ‘regard
even a place on the United States
[Ffimreme Court and how desperately
|the\' are determined that no reasl and
capable progressive man shall r»qcnpy'
& place there to represent the 'pm-l
gressive views of a great majority of
the American people. |
| Decisions Are Not Law. |
' These interests know what perhaps|
lwhat most of the American people do
not know, that the great decisions of
the Supreme Court are political, not
legal, decisions, and that they express
the view of a majority of the nine
Judges of the Supreme bench, eon- |
‘Mrnlng political and social issues. |
Thege financia! interests understand |
perfectly that on the vital questlona'
of cducational law “whatever is boldly
asserted and plausibly maintained is
law.” They want their own crea
tures and all their own creatures on
the Bupreme Court. They want no
able, determined man to intimidate
lthfi boldness of their judges or to mar
the plausibility of their de-isions.
8o they have set the tongues of |
women wagging. The country will
probably bhe surprised to know that a
very considerable social element in
Washington—a very influential caste
—regards the qualification of & public
servant by his own or by his families’
social acceptability, ]
How 1t Works. i
At the public functions the wifs of |
a judge of the Supreme Court or of |
& Senator takes the rank of her hus
band. The Supreme Court takes
precedence over the Senate and so on
down the line, Now, some of the
ladies at Washington are industrious
ly affecting a shrug of horror at the
thaughts of a Jewess taking the rank
of the wife of a United States Su
preme Court judge. A Jewess actual
ly taking social precedence over a
Senator's wife. The fact that Mrs.
Brandeis Is known to he one of the
most refined and cultured women ml
the country does not count. !
The corporation agents working|
against Brandeis know the on.cm-e-t
ness of this argument. They can see
this lridionn poison being dropped
into the Senators’ coffee cup In the
morning, into his wine at night by a |
deft and ambitious wife. It has
worked abroad--perhaps it wil work;
on some Senators here in the Bran
deis case. i

Self-Defense Plea of Nashvnlle]
: !
Slayer in Statement to Pub- |
lic—Freed on Bond, ‘
NASHVILLE, April 27.—Attorney
Charles . Trabue toga_\' made public
the following statement of the kille
ing of Harry S, Stokes, who he shot
to death in the latter's law office here
yvesterday just before noon: |
“l had to shoot Mr. Stokes in my
own seif-defense, and I great!ly re:ret;
that it could not be avoided. J
“I do not think it seemly at this
time to go into all the details of the
unfortunate tragedy. i 1‘
“T went to see My. Stokes And en
tered his private office to ask that he}
sign a statement withdrawing andi
apologizing for insulting things he had
sald about me and without purpose
or intent to provoke a difficulty, |
“I went armed because of warn
ings 1 had recelved from friends, be
cause of numerous threats Mr. Stokes |
had made, and because, as is well
known, Mr, Stokes has been keeping
armed men with him and around him.
[ had every reason to believe Mr,
Stokes was himself armed. ‘
“After entering Mr, Stokes’ private
office and the exchange of a few
words between us, Mr. Stokes, who
was on his feet throughout, made a
violent and murderods assault upon
me, jumped at me and grabbed me,
trying to choke me, and, as I believed,
trying to shoot me at the same time.
I shot then as quickly as I could to
protect my own life,
Prepares for Defense.
“T'ntil Mr, Stokes’ assatlt I had
made no threat, and no sort of effort
to draw a weapon.
“The clothing 1T had on at the time
of Mr, Stokes’ attack upon me will be
carefully preserved, and the physical
marks upon these clothes will bear
oyt my statement.
~ “Peonle who know me, 1 feel cer
tain, will believe that I would not un
necessarily kill or harm anyone, and
‘[ never had a difficulty before.”
~ Trabul today set about the prep
aration of his defense for his trial on
a charge of murder in Davidson Coun-
Lty Criminal Court. Within four hours
}ufier the killlng he had been ar
raigned before Justice of the Peace
|.hmu, where he waived preliminary
examination and was released on a
$25,000 bond. Under the old Tennes
see law murder was not a bailable
crime. However, since the Supreme
Court was upheld the so-called Bow
ers bill, abolishing c.dpltal punish
lmmt in this State, murder, under any
clrcumstances, is bhailable in a sum
Ino' to exceed 325000,
Trouble Not Unexpected.
For some time trouble had been
expected because of the vigorous way
in which Stokes had fought the old
City Hall crowd in court and out.
However, it was a surprise to every
bhody that the situation would reach
’uuch a climax that so able a lawyer
and cultivated gentlaman as Charles
' Trabue should resort to bloodshed,
. In the prgbe of the affairs of the
eity, which gxoken had been conduct
|ing before a special examiner of the
Chancery Court for months, he has
recentiy bheen opposed by Trabue, who
was engaged as special counsel to as
sist the city legal department. In the
course of the hearings Stokes and
Trabhue had many ehated arguments,
and last Thursday Stokes biterly ar
‘raigned Trabue. It is supposed that
Stokes’ vigorous demeanor so rankled
Trabus that he was finally spurred on
to visit Stokes and demand a retrac
| tion and apology.

Judge of Sunrise Court ‘
Indorses Hearst Papers’
Fight on Strong Drink
Editors Lecs Angeles xaminer:
As Magistrate of the Los An
gtles Sunrise Police Court, which
deals exclusively with inebriate
cases, I desire to express my
pleasure at the stand taken by
the Hearst papers in regard to
the liquor question. I am not a
prohlbttlonui:nd I heartily agree
with your idéa of solving the lig
uor problem.
It has been my custom, for three
months past in the Sunrise Police
Court, to ask each man appear
ing before me this question:
“What were you drinking?” The
answers which I have received
and which I file away for inspec
tion, prove conclusively that only
about 3 per cent become intoxi
cated upon beer or light wines.
The balance find their way into
the jail through the excessive use
of whisky, or other intoxicants
containing a heavy percentage of
aleohol.
1 can also state that the statis
ties to which I refer, as well as
many talks with habitual drink
ers, have convinced me that pro
hibition is not a satisfactory so
lution. Several men have stated
that they purposely went into dry
States in order to be away from
the temptation of drink, but re
turned to California for the rea
3on that in so-called dry States
the temptation is just as great,
and the quality of the liquor is
muel more injufious. One and all
agree that it is a very easy mat
ter for a man to secure intoxi
cants in those States which are
numbered as dry.
For the reason that T believe in
the knowledge that these men
have concerning the liquor ques
tion, T very frequently pick out
some fellow who has the drinking
habit very strongly and tell him to
wait uniil court is over. I then
talk to him in chambers. 1 select
only men who are desirous of
solving the problem for them

degree” in writing, the police today
cleared up the murder of Mrs. Joseph
Castelll, a deaf mute, who was killed

as my reasom‘dictates. When I
went, on ‘to theé bench 1 was a.
prohibitionist. I am not a pro- "
hibitionist now. Many of those
who have appeared before me
have said: ‘Judge, if you want to
help the<down and outer, don't
help prohibition.”
Then again,:] am now as I al
wayvs have been, bitter and unal
terably opposed ‘to the saloon
which violates any of the city or
‘State laws. 1 believe in revoking
the license of any place which
does mot operate in a clean mah
ner, regardless of the ownership
of the same.
I have stated time and again
that T am tied .to no one's apron
strings, and it is for this reason
that 1 write this letter urging vou
to proceed with all the vigor and
force at your command to hasten
the day when all intexicants con
taining a hpa%'y percentage of liq
uor will be abolished.
In this way, and this way only,
will the liquor problem be satis
factorily solved.:
Yours very truly,
GRIFFITH JONES.

Alkali in Soap
Bad for the Hair
Soap should be used very carefully
If you want to keep your hair looking
its Yest. Most soaps und prepared
shampoos contain “oo much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the halir
brittle and rulns it
The best thing for steady use is just
¢rdinary mulsitied cocoanut oil (which
I 8 pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive SOAD OT any
thing else you can usé.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim
ply moisten the halr with water and
rub it in. It makes an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particie of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and eveniy, and
it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to_manage,
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy; it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
ber of the family for manths.—Adver

. “But—mark you—so &#id mine. And
I believe I had something the .best
of it. (Professor Snider’s prophecy
was ‘falr and warmer.’ Mine seemed
absolutely to contradict it, for I said,
‘Cool, cloudy and perhaps rain and
wind.
“I won both ends and _ Professor
Snider the middle. In the morning it
was cold and windy. In the middle
of the day it was fair and warm. In
the afternoon it was cloudy, with
