JURISDICTION OVER GUITEAU.

Legal disquisitions are Of no particular in
tsrest to the general unProssssionsl public;
bu t in a case like that in which the trial and
punishment Of 1 criminal like Gui,eau is con-
cerned, the law In tho case 10 q matter Of
deep public interest. The eastern journals
have industriously, hunted up all the decis-
ions bearing upon the case, and presented
them to their readers. The New Jersey
statutes provides tina. nurderers shall rscsive
like trial, judgment, order and execution -
they ought to do II such ~fslonious stroke, and
death thereby ensuing ''had happened In the
same county whore such Indictment had been
oand." This statute was declared esnstitu
tional by the Supreme Court Of New Jersey
In the noted case Hunter ". State, IL. Vroom
203. Hunter Wa taken from Philadelphia,
and tried and hanged IL Camden, New Jer-
soy. 1t 10 generally conceded that there are
no legal difficulties iniths way Of the trial and
convection Of Guiteau in New Jersey.
The common law has sustained this
practices from en,ot times. The statutes
Of 3 and 8 Edward vi. declared that "the
trial shall bs in the county where the death
happens" Statutes passed during the reign
Of Henry VIII. provide that If the stroke
be in England and the death in Wales the
trial shall be in Wales, and uice uersd. In
the absence of any supercsding statute the
common law governs in the District of Co.
lumbia. In Orrel's case Il Dew. l.. 1891 II
was decide d that at common law, where the
blow was given in enc county and the
death in another, the ofisnse of murder was
complete in neither. In the case OF the

death occurred in Maryland, the court gave
Judgment for the defendant, bat the defen-
dant was, however, held to answer for ~

that, any where under the jurisdiction Of the
United States, the person who maliciously

person, of which striking, stabbing, wound

Helena, Etc.

According to the published programme the
Fair should have opened to-day. but the d.
rectors, very sensibly and tttingly, postponed
the opening exercises until tomorrow, and
the citizens generally attended the memorial
services held in Ming's Opera House in honor
of the dead President. Governor Potts pre-
sided, and in assumin :. the duties of his pc.
siti,n very feelingly alluded to the cause OF
the immense gathering. A fervsnt prayer
was offered by the Rev. J. T. Mason, followed
by singing, after which Major Aaginnls was
introduced to the vast concourse assembled.
For q full half-hour the Major held his au-
dience in breathless attention. His Grafton,
which was an u%nstudied effort, seemed 10
come directly from his heart and appealed ~
directly to the hearts Of his listeners. 1t was
a noble tribute he paid to the memory Of the
departed President and statesman, and re-
f1ected honor to the heart as we'll - to tho
head Of the eloquent speaker.
Marshal 3o,kin followed the Major in a
brief but feeling address, which was listened
to with marked attention. After singing
and a prayer the large assemplage was dis
missed with a benediction by the
Rev. Mr.. Winger. Every business house and
nearly every private residence in the city is
draped in mourning to-day. The United
States Assay Office 10 closed and the Post Of
fec is closed until six O'Clock this evening.
During the memorial services the bells on
the several churches tolled, and all business
was suspended.
The weather is not altogether propitious
for the Fair, but from present indications the
Association will meet with its usual success.
The directors have spared 10 pains to make
the Fair one of interest " all. \ fine display
of agricultural products is anticipated. The
other departments bid fair to be we'll repre-
scented and the racing will undoubtedly be
superior. Helena has improved greatly in ap
pearance during the past year Her streets
are models of n~eatness and cleanliness and to
say she is the most beautiful city in the west,
is awarding her bat just praise. The energy,
enterprise and faith Of her citizens are dis
played in the substantial structures built, and
in Others in course of completion. There is
q look of solidity aud stability about Helena
which indicates that her citizens intend to
stay by her 10 the end. S.
