THE CHICAGO FRAUD.
The Case of Mackin to Come Before the

NEW YORK- Nav

New YORK, May 4.
A Washington special says: The noted
case of Joseph c. Mackin of Chicago, con-
victed of illegal acts in connection with the
ballot, comes up for re-hearing this week be-
fore the U. s. Circuit Court, sitting in Chi
cago. 1t is claimed that Mackin's trial was
unconstitutional because he was convicted on
the information process instead of Indictment
as provided for in the fifth amendment to the
constitution. The Supreme Judicial Court
has just rendered a decision declaring it un-
constitutional to make a sentence for an in
famous crime on any other process than in
dictment- crime punishable by imprison-
ment by term of years at hard labor is an
infamous crime, and the Supreme Court de-
clares any one so sentenced on information
is entitled to be released OH habeas corpus.

they make up parties and go out to

their horses, and when as near as

The band dashes away over the
plains, but the colts soon tire and
fall behind. They are then lassoed
and choked into submission. The
little fellows are not hard to con-
quer and when once separated
from their wild companions seem
to have no desire to escape to wild
life again. After being in camp q
few days they may be turned loose
and will stay with the pack ponies
and follow them about. In this
way quite a herd of wild colts is
gathered up and driven back to
the ranches, where they are domes-
ticated.

Benchoten, a goldsmith of Amster
dame, who gave the first one tt
Madame van Rensselaer, on hel
birthday, October 8, 1854, begging
her to accept this new covering fol
the protection of her elegent finger,
as a token of his esteem. At that
time thimbles were worn exclusive
ly on the thumb, and were, usually
made of gold, silver or iron. In
1895 John Lofting, also a Dutch
man, introduced thimbles into En-
gland, where they were first used in
large quantities.
