The examination Of witnesses in the
Wynne Cannon-Hod Morse homicide
case is progressing before the Criminal
Court. Yesterday the Avalanche re-
porter was prohibited from reporting the
testimony for publication by Judge Flip
pin, because such publication during the
progress Of a case often defeats the ends
of justice. Judge Flippin claims he is
sustained by the supreme court and the
rules of court adopted in England and
in many of the United States. No OBJ
lection can be made to reporter taking
notes, to be published at the close of the
trial; but that it should be published
from day to day during the progress Of
the case is subject to the power of the
court. The ends of justice, most.im-
portant thing to look to in Memphis,
might be subserved by the rule enforced
by Judge Flippin.

The Tablet.

This is the name of weekly literary
jou rnal, the initial number Of which was
sent to us yesterday for comment and
criticism. The Tablet is new departure
in ldemphis journalism, published and
edited by Mrs. Elizabeth Avery Meri-
wet her, lady not unknown in the lite
rar,T world of the South. 1t is weekly
joui NAL, and its broad columns are filled
with pleasant, gossipy paragraphs and
strong editorials. There is buoyancy
about this paper which suggests the de-
lightful little bursts Of enthusiasm so
common to feminity. The politics Of
the Tablet are ultra in the extreme
nothing short of the destruction of the
Union will satisfy its editor. 1t is de-
cidedly woman's paper, but one which
ali men will read. The tale of the Tab
let is best told by its editor as follows:
As we make a point of believing women are
TO be q power in the world, and as we intend
the Tablet to be an especial pet with this
power, we are determined to go on with the
venture on the strength Of feminine encour-
agem emit. Though We want the Tablet to be
essentially a woman's paper. we also hope to
please our lords and masters. Woman's ideas
will fill our columns. woman's thoughts will
find vent through this vehicle. Weintend the
Tablet shall have n soul and an individuality
Of its own; its spirit shall be felt, shall be-
come an influence and q power, We trust for
good. If we can fashion the Tablet after the
ideal paper in our mind, it will be sketchy,
racy,. slightly philosOphic. literary and pro-
gressive.
The Tablet starts out gaily on the
ocean of journalistic literature, and we
can wish it naught but prosperous gales
and pleasant zephyr winds to guide it
toward success in its aims and generous
objects.
