/ EXAMINATION WAIVED AND THE PRISONER RE-
LEASED Of $1,000 BAL.
WASHINGTON, November 22.-Mr. r. Il.
/ Elliott, counsel for William Jones, ycster-
dav requested Mr.. Blunt, the prosecuting
attorney at the Police Court, TO have Jones
J brought to the Police Court to-day. so that he
could be released on bonds. This valves
all the fornaltics Of hearing in the Po-
/ lice Court. Mr.. Blunt stated that the wit
nesscs were TO 90 before the grand jury to-
/ day in this case. The Police Court van
made a special trip to the Jail for Jones at
$3.50 o'clock. Policeman Harlan and the
driver OF the van accompanied II. Jones
was i'm good spirits at the Jail. He met
several friends on getting out OF the van ut
the Police Court, and shook hands with
about dozen persons.
There was a crowd attracted to the court
by the presence Of the alleged ayenger, and
he wa. watched for an hour by an admring
audience. Mr.. Elliott arose with his client
beside him, and said: II your Honor
please, in the case OF assault and battery with
intent to kill against William Jones, we
have bondsmen present aud are ready to
give bonds. Mr. Elliott al4O said that he
wished to waive the hearing In this court
and have the defendant give bonds TO appear
before the grand jury. The Court assentcd,
and Mr.. T.. e.. Wheeler, the well known
junk-dealer, and Mr.. Sebastian Aman,
keeper If restaurant on Ninth street,
were offered by Mr.. Elliott rs suretics.
Jones and his surctics were recognized
in the sum OF $4,000 for his appearance
before the grand jury. Jones left the
court with his counsel and several friends,
and n minute afterwards the courtroom
was nearly deserted.
THE CASE BETORE THE GRAND JURY.
The witnesses were before the grand jury
to-day, and il is understood that Perry
Carson, conductor, and James Leonard,
driver OF the van, and boy who was run
ning after the van, were all quite positive
thai Jones was the one who followed the
van and fired the shot Officer Edelin,, who
was on the van at the time, testified to the
occurrence, but could not identity Jones as
the party. Ii is probable that a present.

The lOrsicau Vendetta,

The most crushing reproach that eau
be offered to a Corsican Is to have failed
in his obligation. In the middle ages,
any one who backed out was fined, and
if he remained contumacious for
week, bapished. In 1881 the person
guilty of rimJeccO'o had his tongue slit.
Sometimes the quarrel extended to vii
lagos. From 1912 to 1913 the Roca-
Seras and Ortolis of the village OF
Sartene had their house loop-holed
like fortresses, and at times their in
habitants would have to stand a siege
for months. when the man who ven
tured to the window or opened the
door was likely to be ported from the
premises opposite. Not long ago
priest who never ventured out save
with his gun on his shoulder and ac-
companied by his armed sexton, was
shot dead at mass by his enemy, who
was hidden in the confessional. The
eminent Paoli studied during the last
century in darkened room, where the
window shutters were lined with cork.
He was besieged in convent in 17oG
by his enemies, and would have been
killed had not the mother of another
foe sent her son, Thomas Carnoni, to
his rescue, sacrificing her hatred to her
patriotism. In 1894 Andrea Romanetti
shot dead during the carnival festivities
the son of Mariana Pozzo de Borgo.
The mother dressed herself in male at
tire and with posse of friends hunted
the murderer so closely that he offered
to surrender if allowed to confess him
self. She took him to the priest. knelt
and prayed with him during his shrift,
then tied him to tree and drew up
her platoon, with their guns aimed at
him, and suddenly relenting unbound
and pardoned him. The action lives
in COrsican tradition, less because its
generosity than for its singularity.
There are paroiant, sort OF peace.

is to arrange such feuds, and their de-

journalism inJapan is looking up.
During the year ending July /, 1878,
there were one hundred and thirty APP
plications from all parts of the empire,
from parties wishing to start newspa-
pers. The government granted ninety
of these petitions. About two hundred
native journals are now in operation.
They are of all ages and circulations,
the eldest being ten years old, with
clientage of nine thousand, and the
youngest an infant of days, with cir
culation, if any, in the future. The
Toxic Times. established in the Japan
ese capital by an American, Mr.. +. H..
House, for many years dramatic critic
of the New York Tribune, has reached
its fourth volume. Though printed in
English, it has considerable body of
readers among the Japanese, and is the
favorite sheet with Americans in japan,
being a most creditable specimen Of
American, as contrasted with British
journalism.

The ILLUSIONS OF CHILDHOOD
Who ever wished to correct the illu-
sions of childhood? All of us can look
back to time when we believed vivid
ly that our own parents were perfect,
and believed dimly that the whole
grown-up world was perfect. The child
knows, indeed, that there are bad peo
pie in the world, but they have nothing
to do with the world in which he and
his companions dwell, and when he
thinks about them he is puzzled how to
find room for them. We have heard of
child SO moderate that he only pro-
duced two perfect men besides his ia
Their to confute the doctrine of original
sin women evidently being not in
cluded in its scope) but most of us
would have brought forward "A much
larger body of witnesses on his side.
Now, no one would say that you gave n
child truer view of his father and
mother if you made him understand
that they were two very faulty beings,
with as much to repent of as the naught-
lest of his playfellows. 1t is not that
truth had better be sacrificed to love;
we do sometimes feel that of these illu-
sions in later life, and any one who will
