y Compliment To Our Supreme Court.

The Albany Lam Journal pays u hand.
some compliment to the decisions OF our
Supreme Court:
Kentucky for ever! This time it is cx-
Chief Justice Hargis who has been distin-
gushing himself. Our readers will have
seen i'll the daily press tho account OF his
gallant encounter with another lawyer at
the bar, and how the grave ex-Chiet con-
descended to throw pair OF law books ut
his antagonists head. 1t is to be hope,!
thatwonnded honor is now satisfied un!
that nobody will kill himself or anybody
else. The only mistake the cx-Chief made
was in not selecting heavier missiles ofthe
kind. a volume OF Louisiana Annual in
bulk or OF West Virginia in quality must
inevitably have done for his enemy ii it

ARCTIC PHOTOGRAPHS.
Some Of the Work Done on the Greedy
Relief Expedition.

WASHINGTON Sept 12-Commander Schley
has just received finished photographs from the
negatives taken by Ensign Harlow on the relief
expedition, and while many Of them are, by rea
son of the unfavorabe circumstances, not com
plete as works of art, they are, nevertheless,
highly priced and not to be measured as to
value.
From the first, showing the three staunch yes
sells before their departure, to the last exhibit
ing the officers and crew of the Thetis grouped
on the quarterback with the survivors who had
been rescued occupying seats before them, each
contains some special interest and each awakens
a new line of thought Whenever picturesque
iceberg was sighted whenever an unusual
foe or lead was struck; whenever severe nip
was sustained, it was the duty of the enterpris
ing photographer to obtain an accurate picture.
The crossing of Melville bay, the strange ice
formations, the desolate cairns and caches, the
strange forms of animal and vegetable life, the
striking effects of water, ice and atmosphere,
are all faithfully depicted. Some represent the
Thetis and Bear with the attendant whalers
frozen solid in the ice, where even the torpedoes
failed to force a lead, and the only expedient
was to wait for wind and storm to shift the ice
and once more render advance possible Others
represent the swift passage in the face of furious
gales, the cutting and pushing through the ice,
or the rare interval Of uninterrupted progress
through the open water. The degraded look
ing Eskimos the pet pup seal, the
arctic garments and relics afford the topic for
other pictures. The most interesting of the col
lection, although indstinct and unsatisfactory.
owing to the many obstacles encountered, is the
scene at the rescue. The dreary, desolate ice
bound coast the blank prospect beyond to the
northward In the foreground small detach-
nent of the relief party have reached the cen
trail feature of the scene tumble down and de
caying tent. They have raised the canvas for
a moment, and pausing second while the pho
tographic camera does its work, the frightful
scene is disclosed the two dying men under the
flap of the tent and there is peep at those
within. The faces cannot be seen clearly enough
to be counted, but an idea can be gained of the
horrors which the scene presented.

A HORRIBLE CRIME.
4 Private Waterman Beaten to Death with a
Pick-Ax and His Body Set on Fire,

AUGUSTA, Ca, Sept PA most foul murder
was committed last night in the Office of the SUI
perintendent of the Augusta and Summeryille'
street railway, in this city. William Wales, an
aged white man and night Waterman of the
company, was found this morning dead in the
Office with fearful confusion on the back of his
head and his body burned to crisp Near him
lay pick and an oil can, showing the terri
bic weapon used to compass the murder
and the method by which the perpetrator en-
deavored to wipe out all vestge of the brutal
deed. The body had been saturated with OIL
and set on fire, burning the remains almost to a
einder from head to foot, and burning holes into
the floor beneath, The object evidently was to
burn down the building, and condagration was
only prevented by the pools of blood which satu
rated the space about the dead mans body. "A
desk near by was pried open, and $38 taken.
Wales, who was over sixty years of age, was
making the rounds of the premises at the time
and was probably about to wind his watch at II
o'clock as the last puncture in the dial showed
1880 There is no clew to the author of the
murder, which was evidently committed by some
one acquainted with the place. Two arrests
have been made. There is much indignation IN
the neighborhood.

surplus of $50, 900 to 100000 It is generally
