DOCTOR HATHAWAY, d well known physician of Philadelphia, has just been arrested for malpractice, and 1t is to be hoped that he will be hung or sent to prison for life. It was known that Dr. Hatheaway began his lawless practices two years ago. His first case was a ser want girl whose child died. She wanted the child but 1t had been buried in a cellar On the girls complaint, both were arrested, but were subsequently, re- leased on bail, when Hathaway retired to a Pennsylvania village for a tune. 4 year later he made his appearance in Philadelphia again, and won an unenvi- able reputation at his residence, where women patients were received at his house. Three months ago be as- saulted his wife who complained before the district attorney of his malpractlces, but nothing was done. A week ago he assaulted a relative who had him ar- rested on charge Of assault and bat tery. In the course Of the trial that followed, a young man, an acquaintance of Hathewy's, informed the tipstEfi that the Doctor had been engaged ln much greater crimes than he was charged with. that of criminal malprac- tice, and that the otIsprings were buried in his cellar, and that if the ground was dug up the skeletons could be found. The tIpstaff reported the information as he had received # to the assistant dIs- trict attorney, who communicated it to the district attorney and his associates. After fully considering the matter 1t was determined to investigate the case. Detectives were at once set to work, when twenty-five skulls of human beings were dug up. Most Of the skulls were those of infants, though frequently large skeleton and small one were dug out of the same grave, evil dently mother and ,chlld. Dr. Hathe- way Is now held for the greater crime, and hls case will at once be brought before the grand jury. Since writing the above tho telegraph informs us that Hathaway has been fined $500 and sent to prison for seven years, the full extent of the law. If that Is the full extent of the law for such crimes in Pennsylvania, it is high time a better and more severe one was enacted Death or 1IuprIsUl- ment for life for such crimes would not be too severe.

 TIE cattle men of the east are just beginning to find out that Arizona can produce cattle, and, notwithstanding the Indian troubles in this Territory, a number of capitalists from that section have visited Tucson within the past two or three weeks in search of stock ranches and stock. Once let us get rid of the Apaches, and there will be no end to the number of stock ranches that will be taken up and stocked with imported cattle. From what We have been able to learn, there are millions Of dollars in the east waiting for investment in Ari zons cattle ranches the moment the Apaches are removed from the Terri tory, or placed beyond doing further harm to stock ranches The Camerons of Pennsylvania have already invested largely in cattle in Pima county, and We understand they contemplate further investments in both ranches and stock.

DURING the closing hours of the llh- nois legislature a bill was passed making the education ot children between six and fourteen years oi age compulsory, and vesting in iLe boards of education of cities and incorporated towns the power to enforce their attendance at either public or private schools The law would be a good one if 1t applied to children from eight to fourteen years of age, but no child of SIX years ot age should be compelled to attend school.

FHE cAPTUREp cErRIcAEuAs.

The San Francisco Chronicle of the 25th instant has an article on the dispo- sition Of the Chirieahuas that contains some points that wlll be likely to enter into the consideration of that question st Washington. The governor of So- nora having dropped some expressions on the Apache question 10 the effect that Mexico might have something to say about future raids into that state in case they are put on the San Carlos reservation and again escape into the Sierra Madres. The Chronicle discusses the question as follows: "While 1t is true that inc Governor of Sonora can no more dictate to or shape the policy of the central Government of Mexico than the Governor of California can that of Washington, # must be ad- mitted that his view on this subject IS sound. These Indians are claimed by the United States Government as its wards. They are well known to be dan- gerous to the peace ot Mexico. It is the duty of the United States to restrain them. If we fail in that duty and let them. by our neglect return to Sonora and Chihuahua. to murder and steal and burn and destroy,we are as much respon- sible in damages as if we should allow flibusters ofit out an expedition on our soll to invade Mexico without a reason able effort to prerentit. There is a ques- tion, too, whether the Mexican govern rnent is not by international law entitled to the surrender of these captured h. diaus on a demand for them. Crook pursued them into Mexico without the consent of that government and 1t IS said, against the protest Of the Mexican minister at Washington. He understood the dellcacy of the situation. He avoided contact with any body of Mexi- can troops while n Sonora, lest they should demanf rhe prisoners. If he had met them s-d the demand had been made there is reason to believe that he would have felt constrained to give them up. though he knew that to give them up would be to have them all mur- dered. The fact that he did not put himself iu the way of such a demand on Mexican soil and that he succeeded in getting his captives into Ari- zona does not es5op Mexico from de- maDding their surrender hereafter. Doubtless, from the good feeling exIs- ting between the two republics, the cen tral government will forego its right in the case; but that fOrebearance Is another strong reason why we should take such certain precautions as will prevent the escape of the prisoners and their return into the Sierra Madres. But there can be no such thing as sure pre- vention SO long as the Apaches are kept without a strong military guard on a re- servation so close as San Carlos Is to the avenues of escape. As a friendly neigh bor, it IS the duty of our government to remove these savages so far nom their present haunts that they never can get back into Mexico again. If We fail in this plaIn duty and the ravages of the Chiricahuas are repeated in Sonora and Chihuahua, We should not grumble at demand for damages hereafter.

A WAsHNdToS dispstch referring to General Crooks Apache Indian cap lives says: Secretary Teller today said he Durposed leaving them in the GUS toiy of the military until they were thoroughly tanned. He was Impellei to do this,for the reason the example might have a good effect upon the future con- duet of the Indians, and because the military IS better able to feed and care for the large number of prisoners than the interior department, in view Of the 'reduced appropriation made by the last Congress for the maintenance of the San Carlos reservation. There Is no differ ence upon this point between the waT and interior departments

TIE rustlers are again abroad, so we are informed by the Tombstone papers. Cachiss county should remember the disgrace that was brought upon her two years ago by rustlers. They are a set of cowardly thieves who should not be longer allowed to ply their nefarious vocation. The aw abiding men of Ca chise county should at once rise up and vipe the last one Of them from the face of the earth. If they should again get possession of tLat county, they can only be put down by force after they have de- solated the country, therefore 1t would be much betts- to put an end to the scoundrels as soon as possible.

GovERSoR BurnER has been gaining

GOVERNOR BUTLER has been gaining some cheap notoriety at the expense of the public during the past few months. He recently sought further glory in that direction by asking for an investigation of the state departments without any charges havidg been preferred and with DO knowledge of wrong Of any kind. The legislature concluded that it was about time for the governor to be "sat down upon" and did it in the following spicy paragraph:
 "Whatever it may be that has come to the 'knOwledge' of His ExcellencY, 1t k very clear that he does not set any very high value or estimate npOn 1t, as the proposition is one oi inquiry only, for the future guidance of legislation and administration. If, to the knowledge of the governor, crimes have been com mItted by any servant of the state. 1t seems clear that his duty is to point out out the person and designate the crime. If our law courts are powerless to reach such offender, the legislature Is now ID session and would doubtless foTego the pleasures of an adjournment to aid His Excellency in ridding the com monwealth of those who can be shown to be unworthy of her service

There are at this very moment any number of just such dea,h-trlps. where the lives Of people are in danger the moment they enter them.
