LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
BURGLARY.

Harry Myers's Saloon Entered and Rob-
bed.
Last night the restaurant and dining
rooms of Harry Myers, in the basement
of Lochcr's building, corner of West King
street and Centre Square, was robbed.
This morning about daybreak when it was
rcopcned. it was discovered that burglars
had during the night entered the saloon
and stolen small amount of money,
several bottles of liquor and some fine
cigars. The thieves effected an entrance
by going down the back stairway between
Lochcr's and Strincs buildings and open
ing the back door of the saloon with nip
pers-thc key having been left i'll the lock
on the inside of the door. The money
drawer behind the bar was then forced
the lock being broken completely Off, and
the money contained in it-not less than
$3.50 nor more than $4-was stolen. The
cigar case was opened and about one hun
dred of the best brands of cigars taken.
Several bottles of liquor standing behind
the bar were " sampled" but the thieves
took only the best-including bottle each
of Reigart's old brandy, gin and sherry.
Nothing was taken from the dining room
adjoining, where large haul of tableware
might have been made. The thieves were
evidently well-acquainted with the prem
ises, but MI. Myers has no suspicion as to
who they were.

EdiSOn'S Gardens.

The Sanitary Engineer seeks to establish
the fact that Mr.. Edison is simply travel
ing over region previously explored by
others. In the first place as regards the
latest development at Menlo Park, namely.
the carbon tilament inclOsed in the ex-
hausted globe. In 1916 an American in
vcntor named Starr took out. in England,
through his agent, King, patent for pro-
ducing light by electricity, which had
for its basis the use of metallic con-
ductors, or of continuous carbons.
heated to whiteness by the passage
of the electric current. The best
metal for this purpose was declared to be
platinum, and, when carbon was used, a
thin rod or tilament was inclosed in glass
vessel. The specifications state "A
vacuum is previously established in the
bell, and the apparatus veritably forms a
barometer, with one of the poles of the
battery in communication with the column
of mercury, and the other with the con
ductor d." The conductor D is repre-
sented as sealed directly into the glass
globe or bell, and the reference to the
barometer shows clearly that the vacuum
produced was what is known as the Tor
ricellian vacuum, which, as far as the absO-
lutte exclusion of air goes, is con-
sidered by the Sunitary Engineer to
be fully equivalent for practical pur-
poses to what Mr.. Edison produces in his
lamps. If, therefore, these lamps are of
any practical use, SO, also, would lamps be
if made according to the King patent,
which is, of course, open to all the world.
As to the countless devices for regulating
the current and distributing it through
numerous lamps, about which Mr.. Edison

The Court Of Public Opinion.

We do not fiatter ourselves with the
idea that the remarkable Outburst of
newspaper opinion Oil our contempt case
is owing to any personal or political in
terest in the editors of this journal, nor
to any special professional sympathy
with their position as both editors and
lawyers, since among the editors of jour
mails from which we quote we recognize
friends and foes, Democrats, Republicans
and Independents. and for the most part
gentlemen who sustain no such relations
to their local courts as the editors of the
1NTELLIGENCER.
The remarkably wide notice which the
case has obtained, as well as the singular
unanimity which is expressed regarding
its merits, as far as they have been de-
veloped, is due to the lively appreciation
which the public press has of the impor-
tance of the issue presented to every
community. We have no hesitation in
reproducing them, pending the final ad-
judication of the matter, because it is
right as a matter of news that this reflec-
tlOn OF popular sentiment on Il
topic of current interest should be
brought to public attention, and be-
cause Judge Patterson in his handling
of the case has shown an anxiety to give
it an extra-judicial prominence. Not
only has he taken the novel and unprece-
dented course of summoning parties to
rule before him to hear the rule read he-
fore quarter sessions audience, with
lengthy Introductory remarks, that he
did not furnish us a copy of until spe
cially demanded, and followed by a
gratuitous disclaimer of personal mo-
tives, but it ::is the common rumor of
the street and bar that at every stage of
it he has counselled with parties outside
of court and outside of the case in regard

The Situation in Turkey.

A Turkish gentleman, who formerly re-
sided in this country, but has returned to
his own country, has recently sent a letter
to Boston friend, in which he gives a
gloomy picture of the condition
of the Christian subjects of the
sultan. Since many of the Christian sub
iects were set off as the result of the war
with Russia, those who remain are treated
worse than ever before, as revenge is
taken on them for the disasters Of the
war. There are many homeless Chris
tian fugitives in the country who
live by robbery, and steal the
stock of the farmers and waylay travellers.
There are in the country 10000 men dis
missed from the civil and military service
of the government, who have been driven
out of Roumania, and many of them have
turned beggars or robbers, as they are un-
able to support themselves. The govern
ment is bankrupt, and many of the per-
sons in its employ have received no pay
for many months. To crown all, the harv-
csts have been bad three years, and the
cup of sorrow and misery of the people of
the country is full to the brim.

Haunted ny His Victims Face.

In Milwaukee, Wis, w. W. Noting
ham, who has been employed in Ascher-
mans & Co.'s cigar factory under the
meme of Parker, appeared in the Central
police station and asked to be taken into
custody for murder. He said that six years
ago he shot and killed one John Gaylor in
a street fight in Norfolk, Va, though the
shot was intended for another man. Dur
ing six years wanderings in all parts of
the country the face of his victim has been
constantly before him, and he now wants
to be taken back to Norfolk and punished
for the murder. He has worked under
different names throughout the South and
West, and says that he is well known i'll
