Bill Is Before French Parliament
to Abolish Publicity.
Spectacle of "Red Widow" and Her
Victims in Streets of Paris Being
Opposed By Many as Conducive
to Crime.
Paris.?The death of criminals
upon a guillotine set up in the street
in full view of the public may sooa be
abolished in France. A bill for the
repeal of the law providing for public
executions of the death sentence is
now pending in the chamber of deputies.
It is therefore probable that when
the three?und possibly four?heads
of the notorious bandits of the liounot
band of outlaws are chopped off by
the "Red Widow," as the French call
the guillotine, the gory spectacle may
be given in private. Should that be
the case the motor bandits would be
the first to "benefit" by the new law.
Fublic beheadings are intended to
inspire awe. The would-be assassin
is supposed to see the terrible end
of fellows such as he and refrain from
committing the deed.
The reverse of the picture is said
by many to be true. The hardeued
criminal usually meets his doom In a
way that inspires other of his stamp
with the notion that ho is a real hero,
for public beheadings furnish occasion
for the exhibition of a certain kind Of
bravado which has a strong appeal to
the desperado type. Senator de Chaumle,
one of the leaders of the public
beheading abolition movement, so
says, adding thnt not only are such
scenes disgusting beyond expression,
but demoralizing in the extreme.
Beheadings now take place at Bunrise.
The condemned man is kept in
ignorance of the date of his death
until he is awakened to have his final
toilet made for the knife. Until that
moment ho has hopes of executive
clemency. It being the invariable rule
to ask the president as a last resort to
use his prerogative and show inercy.
The scene usually is in some Btreet
near the prison in which the man is
confined. The narrower and more
crooked that Btreet, the better, since
the authorities desire as few of the
rabble as possible to see the blade
fall. Scores of police and a large !
number of troops, on foot and ahorse,
keep the crowds back and only the
ofllclals, newspaper men and prison
chaplain are grouped about tho base i
of the guillotine.
When several persons are beheaded
they aro brought out of the prison one
at a time, the last to die not seeing
the others meet their fate. The crim ;
inal is tied to a sort of block which '
pivots in tho middle; he is giyen a
push, he falls horizontal and the trl- I
angular blade descends. The head
rolls into a basket on one side, the ;
body is dumped into a similar but |
longer receptacle on the other. Then j
the carcass Is carted away at a gallop
while tho headman's assistants wash
the guillotine with huge sponges,
which they wring out in palls of
water.
They call this "making the widow's '
toilet for her next husband."
Much of this sickening sight as pos- !
sible Is hidden from the public, which
remains passive, or becomes demon- :
stratlvo according as to whether the
man 1h an ordinary criminal, or "popular"
or much disliked. If hated cries
of "A mort!" and "Death to the murj
derer!" are heard as the knife falls.
Senator Chaumle Is against hiding
! the gulllotlno up a narrow street or
blind alley. In a speech before the
senate he said he favored abolition of
the guillotine as a public exhibition,
but until the government should make
the necessary laws, beheading should
take place in the broad open day and
In the most crowded squares to be
found. If the death is to be made
public, said, then let It be really public.

at the sight there would be little opposition
to private beheadings.
GENEVIEVE CLARK TO EUROPE
Daughter of Speaker Says She Will
Not Lose Time In Learning How
Governments Are Run.
New York.?Miss Genevieve Clark,
daughter of Speaker Champ Clark of
the house of representatives, arrived
here from Washington with her mother
recently to meet Mrs. George B. M.
Harvey, wife of the publisher, with
whom Bhe is going to Europe.
"I have seen In the papers that I
am going to study the governments
of Europe." said Miss Clark. "I am i
going for a pleasure trip, for I have
just llulshed school and I want recreation,
and I want to see Italy. But 1
don't Intend to lose time in gaining
new 'knowledge. I have no definite
itinerary. Mrs. Harvey's daughter,
who Is nearly my own age, is in
school in Rome and will join us on
my 'Alice in Wonderland' trip. That's
what I want it to be."
"What are your plans for the future
?1b it a specific work or is it marriage?"
The protty dimples about the mouth
came and tho pretty face broke into a
smile. "Maybe both; who knows?
But one thing is sure; I have yet to
meet a man, like papa?my ideal. My
present plan is to return after thiB
trip and go to my mother's alma
mater?the University of Missouri. I
Intend to specialize later on educational
work to aid the mountain folk
of Tennessee and Kentucky.

Lesson
(By E. O. SELLERS. Director of Evening
Departirfent The Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.)
WNA^AAAVWVWWVWVVWVVVWVVSMVI
LESSON FOR MAY 11.
JOSEPH MADE RULER OF EGYPT.
LESSON* TEXT?Gen. 41:25-40.
GOLDEN TEXT?"God glveth grace to
the humble." I Peter 5:5.
"Hope deferred maketh the heart J
sick." Surely Joseph has had enough j
of deferred hope during his thirteen
years of humiliation, yet he did not
lose faith in God during those days of i
the Beemlng failure of God's Word
<^ii. *v:o; 11:10) ana now mere is
dawning the day of his exaltation. 1
Two years have elapsed since the
events of last week's lesson and again
his powers of interpretation are called
into use.
I. Pharaoh's Dreams, vv. 25-32.
Pharaoh is perplexed and his perplex- !
ity recalls to the butler his forgotten
promise to his fellow prisoner, 40:14
and 41:9-13. It does not seem to us
that the butler was much possessed
by honest sorrow, but rather he is Impelled
by a desire to secure the advantage
he felt sure would accrue if
he could succeed In securing for
Pharaoh the interpretation of his
dreams. He ought to have remembered
Joseph before this but even his
ingratitude is used of God as a means
of bringing Joseph to the fore at the
most opportune moment.
Did Not Forget God.
Joseph Is a good exnmplo for present
day church members to follow In
that being exalted among men or being
away from home he did not forget
to confess God. Furthermore his predictions
based upon his intelligent
knowledge of God came true to the
letter. The whole matter, Pharaoh's
dream and Joseph's nbiliiy as an interpreter
were inspired "established"
by God. There is no such thing as
chance in the spiritual realm any
more than in the realm of physics or
chemistry. Hack of every effort is an
adequate cause. Joseph renlized this
hence his words that, "the thing Is
established (prepared) by God. and
God will shortly bring it to pass."
II. Pharaoh's Deliverer, vv. 33-40.
Joseph told Pharaoh the meaning of
his dream which had been repeated
and which seemed like two different
dreamB whereas it was but one in the
lesson to bo taught. It is not\nough, 1
however, to tWl a man what is the
matter with him. most men know j
without being told, but it is quite an- !
other thing to present a rational cure.
Joseph's interpretation commanded i
Pharaoh's confidence and his suggest- !
ed policy is one of wisdom and good 1
Judgment, viz: (1) a man who shall
be the executive supervisor of tho
plans for meeting the impending catas- ;
trophy; (2) a governmental department
which shall devote itself solely 1
to this matter, nnd (3) abundant storage
of provisions during tho sever
years of plenty.
Pharaoh's Wisdom.
This man of piety knew how to
properly improve his opportunity and
Pharaoh saw the secret of Joseph's i
wisdom (v. 38), "a man in whom the
spirit of Clod is" (2 Tltn. 1:7). Pharaoh
had tho wisdom to set in authority
the spirit-filled man, a broad sug
gestlon for voters, business men. anc'
even church members. True discr
tlon is God taught (v. 39) and we no
begin to see that Joseph's testimony
for God is being honored (Jno. 12:26) '
nnd that Joseph was worthy of the
honor and power conferred upon him
(vv. 40. 41, 44; cf. Matt. 28:18). The J
source of Joseph's wisdom is open to
all (Jas. 1:5), and his worthiness
cnme because of his obedience (Tsa.
1:19). Ills training and testing had i
prepared him to occunv his exalted no
pit ion with proper humility and zeal.
Faithfulness is of great value and always
pays well in the long run. Joseph's
exaltation to power is a good
type of Christ, (a) in the power bestowed
upon him, Jno. 3:35; (b) in
that the power was unlimited?all the
princes were under his feet, Ps. 105:
20-22; Eph. 1:20-22; I Peter 3:22; (c)
by the certainty of 'Pharaoh's promise, :
"I am P^raoh," see Ex. 3:13, 14.
Joseph did not use his great power
for his own selfish ends as do so mhny
modern rulers among men. He did
not at once send for the members of
his family and place them in lucrative
positions, but at once set nbout making
provision for the future. It has
been suggested that the unsuccessful
Interpreters of Pharaoh's dream must
have ridiculed Joseph but he certainly
was sustained by the conviction
that God's word was true and that
the years of famine wero certain to
come. This ought to admonish us to
Improve our present., priceless, opportunities
(Eph. 5:16). Joseph's open
confession was his leaning back upon
God.
This story gives us a remarkable
revelation of the valuo of faith as tho
chief element of strength of a man.
It is also a valuable lesson in its revelation
of the methods of God in ruling
and over-ruling the affairs of men.
When we remember Joseph in a pit
because of the hatred of his brothers
and see him now occupying tho supreme
place of power in Egypt it
seems impossible to reconcile the two
events, and yet we see how perfectly
natural the order of events are
and remember how God is constantly
performing these seemingly impossi
ble feats.
