4 QUESTION. remarkable legal
point has been raised in the case of
MARROW, the jamestown murderer, who
was to have been hanged few weeks
ago, but obtained a stay Of proceedings,
granted by Judge Barker OF the Supreme
Court. 1t appears that Sunday inter-
vened during the trial and after the evil
dence was closed. By order of the Court
the jury were kept together in the Gus
tody of officers, who permitted them to
attend the Baptist church in Maysville.
This afforded an opportunity not to be
neglected by the clergyman who Official
ted on that occasion, and he proceeded
to preach sermon having practical
application to the case which the jury
had under consideration, taking for his
text the words, " Release unto me
Barabbas now Barabbas was a robber. "
During bis discourse the minister said,
4" Some in this house may think | am

ing tried for his life in this village. Such
is not the case, for | believe the mans

wife's and her mothers reeking with
blood. | have read and carefully examin-
ell the evidence, and from that have come
to the conclusion" Marlow's counsel
very naturally assumes that it was not
fair to his client that the jury should
have been preached to i'll such strain,
and he has obtained the stay of proceed
ings on that ground.

A SH,RpLAMp.-Mr. William A. Ford.

A SHARP LAMB MIR. William A. Ford,
of Caroline County, Nd, has pet lamb
that goes rabbit hunting-that is, he
follows the dogs to the woods, and when
they strike the trail he follows in pur-
suit and seems to enjoy the fun rs much
as the hounds themselves. The lamb is
not always successful in keeping up with
his swift-footed companions, and some
times he is left behind and gets lost.
When this occurs he loiters about, stops
at some of the neighbors', and finally
works his way home again.

cents. The buyer suggested that he had

legally free to sell again, he offered him
five cents pound more, and would give
him a hundred dollars to bind the bar

PLEASED THE INDIANs.-An amusing
instance is given Of one deed done in the
early days by the Tammany braves {:
The Creek Indians, on the Southwestern
frontier, had grown troublesome, and the
government, then just entering upon its
work with a heavy debt and an impover-
ished people, was particularly anxious for
peace. In 1890 a delegation of the
Greeks were induced to visit New York,
then the seat of the federal government,
that talk might be had with the Pres
ident The result of the conference, it
was supposed, would greatly depend on
the first impression produced on the
minds of the savages, and their entertain
ment afterwards Luckily, the Tamma-
ny Society had an abundant supply of
paint and feathers, and Washington hit
upon the happy expedient of engaging it
to do the agreeable to the tawny visitors
Accordingly, when the Indian embassy
reached the city, it was conducted to the
Iammany wigwam, where all the men,
bers OF the society were waiting to re-
ceive 1t with painted faces and full abo-
riginal outfit. The Creeks were delighted
with their reception; and as during their
stay the Tanmany members retained
their Indian dress, and devoted them
selves exclusively to their entertainment,
the result was very satisfactory treaty,
and the preservation of the peace.

Gates BACK-SUCTION PREVENTOR FOR
OIL WELLS, patented Augus. Is. 1871, which en-
tirely prevents the ngress Of air in oil wells, while
the tubing ii being drawn. 1t is well known fact
to oil operators, that upon wells where Gas Pumps
are used It is necessa to preserve as nearya per
feet vacuum as possible, and that no air should be
let into the WELL al any time, when it can possibly
he avoided; consequently, whenever the tubing is
drawn fr well 1t ia the cause of great injury to
1t, as the stuing box being then necessarily open
cd, the air immediately rushes back between the
tubing and casing. into the well going into The oil
rock and gas VEINS, and col sequently causin- the
| oil and gas to IRISH back to a great distance. So
much so, that it almost always takes several days
after pumping is resumed for well to be brought
back to its former condition, and oftentmes it takes
several weeks; md quite frequently wells have been
almost completely ruined by the air being thus let
in while drawing tubing
| The BACK SUCTION PREVENTCR is attached
to the stufing box and works in such way that it
completely shuts up the space between the stufiing
J box and tubing so effectuay that not particle of
air get through at any time while the tubing is
being drawn and replaced. 1t supplies want long
