Would Etherize Assassin

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:—
     Allow me to suggest a new method of unearthing the plot against the life of our President.
     Put Czolgosz under the influence of ether, in much the same way that patients are prepared for surgical operations. Ether given in a certain way and quantity will cause otherwise silent people to talk. While he is thus intoxicated with ether it is not unlikely that he will give some clew as to his confederates.
