The matter has been settled by the supreme
courts of New York and Massachusetts,, which
have decided that the physician, in prescribing,
gives the patient a written order for drugs, and
their delivery terminates the transaction. The
druggist may, if he chooses, renew the drugs, as
he is a merchant, and is authorized to sell
drugs in any shape, and he is not bound to give
copy of the prescription, or even keep 1t.
These decisions will doubt be brought for
ward as precedents elsewhere
The brotherhood of locomotive engineers in
New York propose to resist an examination for
defective vision. color blindness and imperfect
hearing; and strike is said to be imminent
Defects of this kind are a fatal disqualification,
and rigid examination of every engineer no
matter how long he has been in service, should
be made at stated intervals. If he has become
near sighted, or cannot tell red light from
green one. or is deaf, he is certainly not compe-
tent to be ntrusted with the care of the lives of
passengers or the protection of property. The
action of the brotherhood is surprising, as it
would seem that they should be equally inter-
ested with the railroad company in taking every
precaution to guard against accidents.
Mr.. Bayard's note to the Colombian minister
will be regarded as Indication of the stand
he will take in the event of war between Eng
land and Russia, when it is probable that Eng
land viii utilize her extensive navy to close the
Russian outlets of the Baltic and Black seas and
possibly of the Mediterranean. A similar at
tempt on her part led to the war of 1912, in
which the United States vindicated its position
that no closing of ports would be recognized as
valid unless by effective blockade. That is the
ground now taken by Mr.. Bayard, and its an
nouncement at this time is very Opportune. -
The russians continue to steadily advance in
Asia and have now occupied Ak Tepe and
Meruchak. The latter place is twenty miles
south of Penjdeh, on the Murghab river, and
was considered by the Ameer to have been of
greater Importance than Penjdeh. His wishes
do not seem to have been consulted by the
Russian commander, who is also actively at
work making a military road from Penjdeh to
Herat. England seems to be doing nothing but
making heavy preparations and contemplating
the grandeur of Gladstone's speech.
Gentle spring took a tumble backwards last
night when the mercury dropped about twenty
degrees and the wind blew as If March had
come out for an airing. Those who ventured
out without wraps will probably be housed
with colds and pneumonia and the business of
the doctors will increase. It's an ill wind that
blows nobody good.

An Akron Man Arrested for n Murder
Committed In 1879.
George 8. Barber, OF Bellevue, Ohio,

yue, where no has since resided, and
where he did prosperous business 90 q

never mentioned this affair TO his wife
