THE ORGAN puMpER's OCCUPATION GONE

The organ In ST. Pauls Chapel, Broadway and
Futon-st, was yesterday an object of much curios
ity to party Of organiss who had accepted the in
vaton Of Trinity Corporation to inspect the cleo
trical apparatus which has superseded the man who
used to pump wind into thu pipes. This is the only
organ thus supplied, and the musicians took much
delight In playing the instrument with its new attach
ment By twisting button at the right Of the key
board the current, which is supplied by the Edison
Company, Is turned on. The great advantage OF The
new system IS that In playing heavy pieces there is
no chance OF the Organist getting ahead of the
bumper, which sometime causes bad breaLs.

An Outrageous Verdict.
yune.

Lima. O., Dec. 15.-As the particulars
OF the verdict rendered Thursday in the
case of William Coins became public, the
people are growing greatly incensed. 1t
seems that when the jury retired. the first
ballot showed six for manslaughter and SIX
for murder in the second degree. A number
of ballots were taken without any change
and when they had been in for twenty-six
hours novel plan was hit upon for arriving
at verdict. Twelve ballots were prepared.
reading Murder in the second degree"
and twelve reading ''Manslaughter."
They were put into a hat and shaken up.
and then each man drew a slip. The re-
suit of the first drawing was the same as
the verdict had been. six to six. The Sec
ond resulted for murder in the second de-
gree and four for manSlaughter. The jury
then notified the sheriff that they were
ready to report. The attorneys for the de-
Tense have made motion for a new trial,
and say they will carry the case to the court
of last resort before they will submit to such
an outrageous verdict. -Ashtabula Daily

In bringing the reformatory to that state of
excellence which will see it free from
all talnt of tyranical management. there is
a broad range of uncertain, experimental
ground involving great deal of the old
idea of punishment as reformatory or
corrective agency. Note in the defects" of
the bill establishing the the refOrmatory
"a distinction ought to be made between
prisoners who are transferred from the pen
itentiary." etc. In plain English a boy who
was sentenced five years ago to ten years in
the penitentiary should go into the reforma-
tory under less favorable terms than one
sentenced for similar Otfense to maxi
mum period of ten years in the reformatory.
That is, the young man sentenced to the
refUrnatOry for ten years might earn his
freedom in one year, but the young man of
equal intellect, morality and possible future
must stay longer than one year because he
has served five years already in the peniten-
tiary. We would be justified in saying
':rOdent," but we wont. We simply say
the supposed deficiency of the bill is very
sensible one. and we hope the Legislature
will see it as we do. Further. we hope the
members of Minnesota's next Legislature
will remember that there are from fifty to
one hundred and fifty men in this prison
now who would be at liberty if the refOrma-
tory had been in existence at the time of
their sentences. Why should they stay
longer here or in the refOrmatOry?
