New YORK San: Mr.. j. S. GARRISON,
the Iowa member of the national rcpuhli,
can committee, doesn't seem to know
enough to keep still He is still weeping
and wailing over the election He has
discovered in some way that lot of
Blaine ballots in this town were not
counted Naturally this grieves him. He
also rebukes another illustrious Iowcu,
Mr.. Frank Hatton, because the New York
postoffice wasn't closed on election day in
order to give the employees chance to
work for Brother Blaine. Mr. IIatton has
explained, but Mr.. Clarkson continues to
be dissatisfied. Indeed it is idle for Mr.
Hatton or anybody .elsei to reason with Il
man who doesn't know that election day
is not national holiday, and that no law
Authorizes the closing of postoffices or
that day. 1t was proper to keep the New
York postoffice open, and it will be
proper for Mr. Clarkson to keep his
mouth shut.

HEROIC" TREATMENT.
4 Quack Doctor Gets Into Trouble for
Soaking a Woman in Coal Oil

Boston, Nov rs A very interesting de-
ciSion was rendered by the supreme court
Wednesday in the case of Franklin Pierce, of
Worcester, a quack doctor, who was indicted
and convicted for mauslaughter i'll causing
the death of Mrs. Mary \ Bemis, of West
Boylston, in packing her in kerosine for SEINE
three days, with her consent. The court
overruled the defendants exceptions, and be
must go to Jail. 1t was in evidence that
he had made similar applications i'll other
cases. and that, though the patients
in those instances were terribly burned, they
survived the operation. The questions raised
by the exceptions were whether an actual
good intent and the expectations of good re-
suits are an absolute justification of acts
however foolhardy, when judged by the ex-
ternal standard, and whether the defendant
Ignorance of the tendencies of kerosene ai-
ministerei It's it was excused administration
of it If the principle which has been estah
lished both for murder and manSlaughter i
adhered 10, the defendants intention to pro
duee the opposite result from that which
came to pass leaves him in the same position
with regard TO the present charge that he
would have been IN If ne had had no inten
ton at all in the matter This decision Tt
VERSES the old law applicable to such cases.

lame to split kiudling wood and put it in
packages for sale for his meals and bath,

is givenS washing and scrubbing to do.
Some, when they find themselves clean
and well fed, are reclaimed from the road
but most of them relapse on account of
their dislike TO work. The southern and
eastern tramp drift tends towards Pills
