An INVALID LAW.

The jury Law passed by the Legisla-
ture of 1915 was to-day declared I'M
constitutional by Judge Rising, for the
reason that it denies the defendant the
right Of pere .nptory challenge. The
old Jury Law of 1878 was declared by
the Judge to be reinstated. The jury
impaneled in the Larkin murder case
was discharged, and the trial Of the case
continued until Monday next. whensit
will be proceeded with under the old
law Virginia Chronicle, 18Th.
Judge Rising is the second District
Judge who has declared the law un-
constitutional, Judge Rives, Of Lincoln,
being the first. Both OF these Judges
hold tho law to be void on similar
grounds, namely, the denial to defen-
dsnts Of the right Of peremptory chal-
lenges. The law is invalid for another
reason, to which it is proper that pub

A Bank Teller's Balance.

/ z == .g #
 It is related that while Robert Pringle. the great banker of Glasgow, was paying teller in bank in that city, person entered, demanding payment of:a sum of six pounds. There were several persons waiting, who were, in turn, entitled to be served before him; but. he was ex- tremely impatient and rather noisy, and being, besides, remarkable stammerer, he became so annoying that several gentlemen requested the teller to pay him his money at once and get1id of him. Pringle did 80, but with an expression of impatience at being obliged to attend to him before his turn; and he thought no more of the transaction. At the end of the year, which was eight or nine months after, the books of the bank could not be made to balance, the deficiency being exactly six pounds. .3rsg si. F., #
 Several days and nights were spent in endeavoring to discover the error, but without success; when at last Pringle returned home much fatigued, and went to bed. II He dreamed of being at his place in the bank, and the whole trans action with the stammerer, as just de- tailed, passed before him., in all it's par tculars. He awoke under 8 full i'm presslon that the dream was to lead him to the discovery of what he was so auxiously in searchsof, !, and on investiga- tion he soon discovered that the sum paid to this person, in the manner men tloned, had been neglected to beinserted@ ln the book of interests, and that it ex- actly accounted for the error in the balance.

A Corpse in the Air.

The Paris correspondent of the Phila- delphia Press writes: One of the strangest and most horrible of @sensa- tional incidents took place the other day at Puteaux. A party of children who were playing in the. enyirons discovered floating in the air and partly entahgled amid the branches of tree white par eel upborne by means of some twenty or thirty little red toy balloons which were attached to it. The attention of the police being called to this singular ob- ject, it was brought down and the pack age opened, which proved to contain the corpse of newborn infant. Investiga- tions into the matter brought to light the following facts: The child was that of a poor toymaker and his wife; just after the confinement of the latter the hus- band had died suddenly, and all the household goods and chattels had been seized for rent. The unhappy woman was driven mad by this accumulation of misfortunes; she killed her infant, and then went out and threw herself into the river, leaving a written paper in which she declared her intention of committing suicide, and said that she chad gotten her baby all ready to go up to heaven 3 A sadder tale with stranger termination 1t would be hard to find. The toy bal looms evidently had formed part of the dead husbands stock in trade.

For the Ladies.


 The marriage Of Princess Louise, of Belgium, with Prince Phillippe,s of Saxe- -Coburg, wasscelebratedzat half-past ten in the morning, at the palace at Brussels. The occasion was, of course, a brilliant one. The dress of the bride was white and was trimmed on each f1ounce with band of silver, core spending to shouMersknots ofsthe same ! design. She wore g bouquet Of sorange flowers in her bodice and carried an other in her hand. The veil, which was of Brussels lace, descended to the bot tom of her dress, forming 8 sort of mantle.
 The pueeia of the Belgians wore a dress ofbright cherry-red color, trinnned from tops to bottom with magnificent lace, a necklace of brilliants, and 8 crown of diamonds and fine pearls.
 The Princess Clementine was in sea- green, the Countess de Flandre in blue; but the shade of theirf dresses could only be distinguished through a sort of cloud of splendid lace.
 The little Princess Stephanie was charming in her small white dress. garnished with knots of satin of the same color. She might have been taken for one of Velasquez's painted children. The services were civil first and those of the Catholic church afterwards gYr It was noiceable that at the moment when the archbishop put the question to the Prince and Princess, whether they were willing, to take each other re- ciprocally as man and wife, they both, before answering, turned round and made respectful obeisance to their august parents, in token of deference, and acknowledging thus for the second. time their consent.

Outrages on the Texas Border,

Col. Robb, of the late Mexican border commission, appeared before the United States committee on foreign affairs and made full statement of the condition of the border. He read affidavits received by him, showing that since the commis- sion left there & year ago, the depreda- tions by Mexican raiders on citizens of Texas have increased tenfold. Some of the afiants residing at or near Browns vile say thefts of horses and cattle are committed in open day as well as, night, and not unfrequently accompanied by murders. In recent case tie Mexican authorities were informed of what had happened, but they, took no steps, to aid in, the recovery of the stolen cattle. A petition to the Governor of Texa, repre- sented that there was no protection to persons or property outside of Texan towns, and very little to property sny- where and therefore they applied to him to recognize the raising of minute men for protection.

WnegarE Bitters.

Dr. J. Walker, a regular practicing physician of California, has conferred a priceless boon upon mankind, by the introduction of "Bitters" compounded from herbs exclusively, which may be truly said to be superseding all others, and is becoming bitter dose indeed for the .charlatans and quacks, on account of it's immense sale and universal popular ity. Not only are these Vinegar Bitters, as he calls them, an invaluable tonic and alternative, but they are acknowledged as g standard medicine, and the astonishing 5rapidity with which they cure diseases hitherto declared incurable, seems almost incredible. After having been carefully tested, they are kept on hand in thou sands of households, and used for any and every form of disease, many relying upon them in preference to the most celebrated physicians. They have be- come recognized "family remedy" and properly so.-COna.
