of the adjoining farms had a right
to pass as far as the bridge over the
Anio, called the Ponte Salario. The
king made short work of the counts
right of passage, for he ordered the
road, or what traces remained Of it,
to be dug up and planted. When
the counts servants entered on the
disputed territory, his majesty sum-
moned the count before the crimi-
nal court, and had him fined for
trespass. There was then a trial
before a legal tribunal, and here also
the king triumphed, and the count
was cast. his witnesses not being
even suffered to give evidence. The
last hearing of this case was just
the day before the death of Victor
Emmanuel. Within ten days be-
fore his death he shot forty thrushes
and one woodcock in this villa, and
shot also an otter, which did
not surrender life until it
had received four balls from the
royal gun. Victor Emmanuel
was very fond of this villa, although
he never slept at it, and used to
watch the progress of the buildings
and Improvements with much in
terest. His dsughter-in-law, then
Princess Margherita, used to go
there frequently to spend a few
hours in the grounds along with
her son, the now Prince Hereditary.
The Count d'Heritz has lodged an
appeal against the late decision, and
will carry the question of a right of
way to the highest courts, and if
he eventually succeeds, the privacy
of the royal villa will be greatly in
terfered with, and the result may
be that the public will be admitted
and the grounds thrown open on
certain days, as is the case with the
Villa Borghese and the Villa Pam
phil Doria. This villa on the Via
Salaria must not be confounded
with the other royal villa on the
Vic Nomentana, where the Count.
ess Mirafori lived, and which be-
longed, it is supposed, to her.

A Rome letter to the London
Daily Telegraph says:
The following incident in the life
of the late king of Italy may be of
interest. The day before bis death
Victor Emmanuel gained a lawsuit
in which he was much interested.
Ills adversary was an Enghshman,
formerly a clergyman of the Estab-
lishment, but resident for thirty
years in Rome, and long one Of the
papal chamberlains. He received "a
title from the pope and is now
styled Count Campbell Smith
d'Heritz. This gentleman purchased
from the late Cardinal lliario Sloraa
a property called the Villa Sciarri,
and the neighboring villa, called
Villa Potenziana, was bought by
Victor Emmanuel shortly after
1870. His majesty also purchased
up the lands of the Irish College,
aud all the neighboring properties
whenever the chance offered, and of
the entire made a beautiful epun-
try estate, adorned with artificial
lakes, splendid roads and planta-
tl9ns. He also built q magnificent
place and furnished it with great
luxury. Bat bis neighboF, Count
dHciitg, would not be bought ont,

fact, the ancient Via Salara lay

The belief of one.third of the
human race ought to be of some
account in the discussion of the
hell question. DR.. j. NJ. PEBBLES,
who Is on IA second voyage around
the world, writes from Ceylon to
the Banner of Light:
Denying the eternity of hell tor
ments, Buddhism teaches that there
are very many hells, or states of the
wicked; but through reincarna-
tiOns, pcnances, repentance, and
works of merit, the sinful pass out
of the hells into more heavenly con-
ditions, and ultimately reach the
realm of inexpressible perfection
and glory.
Buddha, the founder of Budd-
hism, who is said to have been con-
temporary with Solomon, Sesostris,
and Theseus, gave ten laws or COM
mandments. The frat of them
SAYS: "Thou shalt not kill any
living creature" The second is
against stealing, and two Shamans,
who robbed some priests, are said
to have fallen into hell. The fourth
law says: "Thou shalt not do
wrong by thy mouth" A young
Shamain ridiculed an old Bhags,
saying that in reading the Scrip
lures he barked like a dog. The
Bhaga caused him "to repent in
stantly that he might not fall into
hell and be transformed into a dog.
The fifth law prohibits liquor drink
ing, and it is said that "if there is
no reason for it, thou shalt not
touch any liquor with thy lips !"
and further, that "there is par
ticular department in hell, filled
with mire and dirt, for the trans
gressors Of this law. A note in the
catechism says, the Buddhists di-
vide hell into eight Departments" +"
and the descriptions of the punish
ments in them are said to be "sim-
liar to those in the celebrated 'In-
ferno' of Dante" The ninth law
SAYS "Thou shalt not eat after
the time" meaning afternoon, the
time demons are supposed to eat.
1t is said that "the hungry devils
in hell hear the rattling of the
wooden roller (by which the monks
are called to dinner open their
mouths and fire is then shut into
their throats.
In a work entitled 'Faiths Of the
World" it is said:
The Buddhist system teaches that
there are numberlesS systems OF
worlds, each having its own earth,
sun and moon, as we'll as a series Of
hells and heavens, The earth in
habited by men is subj bject alternate
ly to destruction and renovation, In
q series Of revolutions to which
neither beginning nor end can be
discovered, There are three modes
of destruction-fre, water and
wind. The worlds are destroyed
seven times by fire, the eighth time
by water, and every Sixty-fourth
time by wind, lie who is now the
most degraded Of the demons may
one day rule the highest il the
heavens; he who is now seated upon
the most honorable Of the celestial
threnps may one day wrlthe amid
the agonics Of a place Of torment,

The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1878-12-07

disastrous fire took place in this city about
one o'clock last Saturday morning, by which the
greater part Of the Maicrhofer Clipper Plow
Works were destroyed. The fire originated in
the second story-in the paint room, We believe
and spread rapidly through the building,
which was soon in flames. The department ar
rived promptly, but owing to the absence of
water in either the canal the side cut, at the
junction Of which the works were situated, the
steamer was comparatively useless. Later in
the fight the second steamer was set on the OPP
posite side of the cut, and by using the suction
gear of both engines the hose men were able to
throw little water. This added to abe work
done by the hook and ladder company saved the
brick building just north used as the wood de-
partment of the works. The store room across
the street on the east escaped unnjured. Some
machinery was saved. The loss is put at nearly
so, 500 Sl2,O on machinery, 1850 on build
ings, and $500 on stock; insured for $1,000, IN
companies represented by Mr. Ravens. The
public will rejoice to know that the work will be
rebuilt ard put in operation again soon as
possible. The Clipper Plow is a famous one, and
besides Mr.. MaicrhOfcr was manufacturing plows
especially designed for western and Texas use,
where alarge trade has been built up; so that
the gloomy regrets expressed by many over
the probable extinction of this important factory
are, happily, without foundation.

The Jail Again.

In sentencing Thomas shelton ct al on Wed.
nesday Judge LELAND again found it necessary
to allude to the county disgrace-the Jail. The
men were liable to fine or Imprisonment. His
honor preferred the imprisonment, but in that
case, he said, "they must be taken to jail
where the usages Of civilized society prevail"
He then went on, in substance, to say that it Is
impossible for ordinary people to conceive the
embarrassment to this court in inficting impris'
ment occasioncd by this Jail in which no man
can be confined in humane Orcivilizcd manner
The Jail is admitted insufficient and disgrace
to the age. When some time ago an injunction
was sought for by some Of its inmates to restrain
their confinement there, Justice Walker said, in
his opinion, that court of chancery could not in
tcrere, but that the circuit judge had the power to
see that sentence is humanely carried into effect
The statute says the various kinds OF prisoners
shall not be confined together In this Jail there lisa
woman. She is separate from the males, being
confined In Il sort Of place under the court house
but not in the Jail proper. The males confined
for all sorts of trivial and loathsOmc crimes, con-
trary to law notst be together in the main "hall"
The law says the men are not to be confined with
other prisoners charged with more serious crime.
The Judge said if he inflicted a fine, which they
should say they could not pay, he would be com
PEELED to release them. If select imprison-
ment cannot sentence them to this jail with
out violating the law" As this Il matter of
quite a serious nature he was inclined to think
proper sentence would be 30 days in the county Jail
They were thereupon sentenced 10 pay the costs
of the suit and to confinement in the county jail
and to the sentence the following clause was
added
And ii being made to appear to the court that
the Jail in this county is in such an unsuitable
and insufficient condition that the defendants
cannot be kept separate from persons now con-
fined therein charged with and convicted Of in
famous crimes and that they cannot be as hui
namely treated therein as the usages of civilized
society and the statute in such case made and
provided requires it is therefore ordered that the
Tailor forthwith remove said defendants to the |
nearest sufficient Jail Of another county where |
they can be confined without violating said usagcs
and said statute
Thereupon they were taken to Norris to the |
Grundy county JAIL where La Sale county will
have the pleasure Of boarding them.
We have no comments to add-the facts are |
sufficiently pointed, and no one who knows the !
condition of this La Sale county Jail will dispute
the righteousness of the step taken by his Honor. !
