sULIIVAN'S SENTENCE.
Year in the County JaiI-KIis Case
Appealed 10 the Supreme Court
sullivan Makes a speech.

PURy1s, Miss, Aug. 17.-Judge
| Calhoun having made remarks for
clemency, there was painful ankle
| ty to learn what the sentence would
be. The silence was broken by the
defendant Sullivan himself, who
rose in stately grandeur and ad.
dressed the Court as follows:
"Your Honor / desire to make a
few remarks. | can only ask your
clemency in the matter. No doubt
| have done something, bat, as my
counsel told you, | was ignorant of
expert as the distinguished District
Attorney, or as my counsel Oh my
right, who have addressed you. and
therefore beg TO remain your hum
ble'servant, John L. Sullivan"
Then he took his scat. At this
action and appeal by the defendant
the excitement became more intense
The Judge seemed 10th to relieve
the anxious suspense, for he sat a
long time contemplating the matter
before him. The tension of feeling
at this stage was strong until at
length it was relieved 10y the Judge,
who proceeded to say:
THE SENTENCE.
Gentlemen. passing sentence has
always been Of considerable trouble
and concern to me even in small
cases, except where the law has one
absolute punishment. 1t seems to
me that The prize fight at Richburg,
of which this defendant stands con-
victed, was gross atIront to the
laws of the State whose authorities
personally forbade it. 1t seems to
have been accomplished withsystema-
tic arrangements, and in the pres
ence of invited thousands. 1t seems
on the part of all concerned to have
been studied disregard and con~
tempt of the law. They came from
and through many States whose
authorities and civilization deferred
them from any attempt at such pub
lie lawless conduct within their
limits, and they chose the soil of
Mississippi as the only fit ground
for such u combat, indicating their
utter contempt Tor the sentiments of
the people and the laws of the
statute books. Stand up, Mr.. Sulli-
van.
Sullivan arose.
The sentence of the law is that for
and as punishment of the offeuse of
which you stand convicted you shall
suffer Imprisonment for twelve
month i'll the county Jail.

Kick No, 2.

If there ever was genuine NUS
ance, it is the "Fast Mail" At
the writing of this no mail has left
Caldwell for the east for forty-eight
hours. We had an idea that the
fast mail was for the purpose of
carrying the mail, but it seems
that if the fast train gets through
on time, it makes no difference
whether it brings the mail or not.
Our local mail has been delayed
both ways since this train was put
on. Half of our mail from the
east is invariably carried by, and
it seems impossible to get a letter
out of town under forty-eight hours.
The Fast Mail may be big bonar-
"a for Portland, but it is a nuisance
to small interior towns.

Kick No. 1.

Weiser Leader.
Our U. S. Mail, cared for and
handled so carefully by the grace
of God and John Wanamaker, is
having rather a rocky road to
travel, and is continually playing
perhaps perhaps they catch it
and perhaps they don't. The great
overland flyer" went through here
Tuesday at the rate of ten miles an
hour. on time, and missed the bag
and the mail laid over for twenty
four hours. Weiser, Washington
county, Idaho, is the county seat
and handles mail for a large and
growing country north, and asks
and demands more decent treat
ment. Our present mail facilities
are shameful. Our postmaster is
in no way to blame; it is the laid
railway and U. S. service.

The ''BeautifuI SnOw.o

Bellevue Press.
There are two and a half feet of
snow at Ketchum, two feet at
HALEY and Bellevue, and about the
same amount on Camas Prairie.
The whole of Tuesday and Wednes
day was occupied by the people of
Bellevue in shoveling off the beau
tiful, and each side of principal
streets has the appearance Of breast
works of an army. The snow fell
SO heavily that it was necessary to
shovel off roofs to prevent the great
weight breaking them in, and it
was the universal thought that the
author of Beautiful Snow" should
be here to see the practical appli-
cution of his ideas. Such heavy
fall SO early in the season has
never been know in the memory of
We oldest inhabitant.
