WASHINGTON.


Washington, May 13.-During the
last month of his administration, Pres
ident Grant yielded to the solicitations
of prominent Georgia Democrats,
against the advice of Attorney General
Taft, and ordered the discontinuance
of prosecutions against 692 citizens of
Georgia, who had been indicted for de-
frauding the government by Illicit dis
tilling. They were released under PROM
ise of good behavior. Extension Of
Executive clemency, it was thought
would make them honest citizens. The
promises then made have not been
kept. Interna.Revenue Commissioned
Raum reports that large number of
these men have again been detected at
their former operations, convicted and
sentenced to the penitentiary, and that
others are awaiting trial. In fact, ac-
cording to Information received at the
Internal Revenue Bureau, very few of
the number who were released have
tried to observe their promises, bnt
went to work Systematically, as soon as
they were free from the meslies of the
law, to again defraud the government.

THE Bankrupt tax repeal will un-
doubtedly take effect next September.
The attempt to postpone until January
was made by those who hoped to amend
the existing law instead of repeating it.
But this was defeated by the argument
that before further legislation in that
directson is had the country had better
try temporarily the experiment of do
ing without any national bankrupt law
and see how it works.

Inc Long Looked for Resolutions.
Potter, as question Of privilege,
presented preamble and resolution,
setting forth that the State of Maryland
has, by its legislature, formally declar-
ed that due effect was not given to the
electoral vote cast by the State on the
9Th day of December, 1876, by reason
of fraudulent returns in the electoral
votes from the states of Florida and
Louisiana, and calling for select COM
mittee consisting of eleven members of
the House to be appointed to enquire
into the aforesaid allegation as to the
conduct Of the persons in Office afore-
said in respect of the said election and
into the alleged false and fraudulent
canvass and return of votes by the State;
county, parish and precinct officers, in
the said states of Louisiana and Florida,
and into all the facts which in the
judgment of said committee, are con-
nected with or pertinent thereto.
The preamble and resolution having
been read, Conger said they did not
present thequestion of privilege, and that
the powers proposed in the resolution
could not be given by a mere majority
vote, but would require suspension of
the rules. Conger's remarks were fol-
lowed by lengthy discussion between
Potter, Garfield, Hale and others; the
Republican members claiming that the
45th Congress cannot undo anything
relative to the joint decision of both
Houses of the 44th Congress, which
they claimed forever settled the Presi-
dental question.
Conger and the Speaker became en-
gagged in controversy on point of or
der. which being finally settled, was
followed by tilt between Hale and
Potter. Hale desired to offer an
amendment to Potter's resolution, to
which the latter objected in most
spirited manner. A running discus
sion then took place upon the right Of
Maryland to petition for what she re-
gardcd redress Of grievances. The
Republicans disclaimed any desire to
abridge the rights of the States, as
guaranteed to them by the Constitu-
tiOn

A POSITIVE DEMAND.

Which will Result in the Evacuation of
Three Forts.
London, May 13.-A special Constan-
tinople telegram states that i'll conse-
quence of peremptory demand of Gen.
Todleben for the surrender of the fort
resses, accompanied by threat to oc-
cupy Constantinople, the Cabinet Coun-
ell have decided to evacuate all three
fortresses; Thumla first, then Varna,
and lastly Batoum. The decision was
taken rather suddenly upon the report
of Osman Pasha, that the Turkish army
is not in condition to resist the occu-
patton of Constantinople. The Times
correspondent at Constantinople, says,
rs, usual the palace was smitten with
terror, ready to cede anything if the
Russians would go away from Constan-
tinople. Gen. Todleben peremptorily
urged the evacuation but adroitly Of
fered to fall back If the fortresses sur
rendered. The bait was swallowed and
the Russians have promised to retire to
Adrianople and Dedragath and quit
Erzeroum as soon as the three fortresses
are evacuated. The evacuation will
begin at once. There is to be no writ
ten convention and all will be settled
by verbal agreement.

How a Hunter Saved His Life.

Ned Wallace, of Jesus Maria, killed a
cougar the other day that measured eight
feet in length. Mr.. Wallace was out
hunting and during his search for game
came across a couple of young cougars.
He shot one one of the cubs dead and
wounded the other. The wounded one
set up crying and whining that was
heard by its mother, and before Wallace
could reload his rife he was startled by
a terrifying scream. He is an expert
enced hunter and he well understood the
significance of that cry. He knew it
came from the female cougar, an animal
that, when aroused and enraged, has no
superior in strength, activity and
ferocity. A crash in the brush on the
hillside above him and repetition of
the frightful scream thatsounded almost
human, warned Wallace of his perilous
situation, and he prepared to face the
danger. His rifle was empty. With the
utmost celebrity he threw handful of
powder into the barrel and showed a
bullet down after it without the form
atty of encasing the latter in a patch.
As he hurriedly finished Gaping the
weapon and drew his knife, the cougar
was within twenty feet of him preparing
for the spring that would have probably
cost him his life. Quick as thought
Wallace leveled his rifle and fired, the
bullet luckily striking the animal in the
breast, inficting a fatal wound. The
cougar leaped fully ten feet in the air
and fell dead at Wallace's feet. The
skins of the cougar and her cub are on
exhibition in Jesus Maria. That of the
full-grown animal measures eight feet in
length.

Advice to Students.

A medical journal, advising students
how to take care of themselves, says:
sit up to the table when you read;
easy-chairs abolish memory. Do not
read the same book too long at one sit
ting. If you are really weary of one sub
ject, change it for another.
"Read steadily for three hours day
for five days in the week The use Of
wet towels and strong coffee betrays
ignorance of how to read.
Test the accuracy of your work as
soon as you have finished it. Put your
facts in order as soon as you have learned
them.
Never read after midnight. Do not
go to bed straight from your books.
Never let your reading interfere with
exercises or digestion. Keep clear
head, a good appetite, and cheerful
heart"
