MAxwELI.s LAST sARn.

It is matter of surprise that the British government should bc so weo- fully ignorant of cur system of gsy- ernment as to prefer request, through its resident minister in Washington, to our Secretary of State, fer respite ls the case eff Hngh NJ. Brooks, alias Maxwell, convicted of the murder of Arthur freller, both British subjects. The crime for which Brooks is con dcmnsd to deaSh was committed in St. Louls, Missouri. and, therefore, the power to grant the request is beyond Federal authority because of the de- nial of power by the States to the Fed eral government, not enumerated in the Federal constitution, which, in this instance, the Governor of Mlssou- II is the only person having the au- thority to grant or deny the request | Tho murder Of preller occurred April 5th, 1885, since which time Max well was on the run, or fighting before the courts fer his life. After commit ting the murder he immediately fled the country under tho assumed name of Cecil D'Auquier, bearing which he was apprahended upon San Francis co steamer as she entered the port of Auckland, New Zealand, and was there arraigned and held upon 8 requisition for his return 10 St. Louis to answer the accusation of murder. There is nc stage of proceedings con csived of thought likely to relieve his person from the grip of tue law, that has not been rssorted to, and having failed in every attempt to eyade hang ing, he, at last, appealed to the Brit ish government, of winch he is a sub jsct, to intsrpose in bis behalf

How Edison Killed Cockrosches.

New York Telegram.
Years ago, when Thomas A. Edison was tele-
graph operator in the Office OF the old Franklin
company. on Wall street, he was continually
getting himself into trouble by perpetratng
electrical pranks on his brother operators The
instruments In those days wsrc placed on shelf
like desks ranged along the walls Of the operat-
ing-rooun, and Edson's place was in o corner OF
the room. Here he concocted all his schemes
for making life miserable to everyone and every
thing about him.
The Office seemed TO be the rendezvous for ell
the cockroaches in the lower part of the city.
and Edison hit on q novel plan to extsrminate
them one by ono. He rigged up wire along the
wall, and then catching one OF the insects put 1t
to death in the short and painless fashion sp-
insects were 'sparked out" Of existence. until
boys as "Cockroach Tom"
In the cloak room was large tank generally
filled with ice water. beside which hung tir
dipper on q nail in the wall Edison connected
this nail with wire at the other end Of which
were 100 cells OF Fuller battery, strong enough
to make one think he had been struck by the
paddls-wheel of Fall RIVER steamer. The future
Wizard OF Menlo' then placed sign below the
dippsr requesting all to PLEASE y,turn this dip
peg ~
His request was needed. The dipper was
never taken down. but there a dozen or
more wrenched arms in the Office in less than
40 hour.
All this time the vouthful inventor was work
ing on the quadruple telegraph scheme, which
be afterward perfected, and which is now the
principal system in use by the Western Union
COMPANY.
