Bank Account.
A pair of elderly, leathery-looking men
and limp-looking, broken-spirited wom-
an in calico dress and bonnet fash
ionable before the war, appeared in a law
yer's Office uptown one day last week.
One of the men said that they wanted a
deed made out, and then he turned to his
companion and they discussed the details
Of the trade they were about to make
The meek-looking, heavy-eyed little

Fair Exchange No Robbery.

Merrill E. Shepard of Haddam Neck,
Conn, is the owner of hen which made
its nest in the woods near his house, and
laid several eggs only to desert them
finally. A partridge then appeared to
usurp the claim, and, after laying few
eggs, settled down for the usual three
weeks stay. Five young chickens first ap-
peared on the scene, but these were re-
moved by Mr.. Shepard, in hopes the bird
would stay and present him with some
young partridges. He was disappointed,
however, but on the principle that fair ex-
change is no robbery, the partridge eggs
were Matched by a hen.

SPECIAL ELECTION EXPENSES.

An Act Of the lie ,isIGt1re approved
January %, 1889, appropriated SIS 900
for the payment Of tho EXPENSES OF tho
special election ordered 10 10 held on
tho llth day Of February, 1889. The
second section Of tue said Act provides
as follows:
SIC. .. The Boards OF County Com
miSaIonoEs in the respective Counties in
this State, shall, Immediately after as-
ceiIaining the expense OF said election,
certify the same to the State Controller
who shall, upon receipt OF such certih-
cate, draw his warrant upon the State
Treasurer, in favor Of the Chairman OF
zach Board Of County Commissioner
for the amount so certified as being tn.
expenses OF snid special election in each
County.
Afterthe expenses Of the said election
had been certified to tho State Con.
%troilcr, as required by law, it MAS found
thai ihn aggregate exceeded the appro-
p~riation 10y something over $1,000 and
the Legislature made another ppro-
P~ri-tiou sufficient to cover the deficit.
Now the State Board Of Examiners 90
to work and make n cut all alorg the
line, reducing the amount OF the ex
penses from Sl9.:3o ID to $l2,U 90 50.
Read carefully Section ., quoted above.
aud Where is the authority for reducing
tho amount so certified by the several
Boards Of County Commissioners!
On this subject the Virginia Enterprise
says:
There il nothing in the world to cast
a shnd1w of decency Oh the action cf
the Board Of EXaTuiners, except the
majority vote which they received that
elected them to Office, which was saying
in cffact that tho people had coni lsncc

town was TO send word tn his San Frau

Board Of Examininos have done? They
have made II clSRn.aut horizontal
reduction along tho line, and
offer no reason for it aud assign 10

The several boards OF County Com
miisiOnors wero ordered to prepare for
n special election. They prepared by
engaging the services OF trustworthy
and capable citizsns TO net in the

AN UNEENAHI.E PusIrlON.

In his argument before the jury on
Wednesday j. w. Dorsey Esq. took
the pc 'ition that, even admitting that
his client, s.. NJ. S.reeter, is guilty as
charged, IL Of tho daughters Is
married, the other was two thousand
miles nway mud hence there was no
danger that the d~efcndcnt could do
the" ,ur her injuiy; therefore it would
have been better Ind the matter been
dropped, better for tho daughters who
were brought into G .urt to testify
against their father, for the reason that
in time the affair would AVE blown
over nnd tho girl then in Iowa might
have married and become a
happy wife and mother, and the family
saved tho shame Of n criminal prosecu-
ton against the father.
Adopting this theory md following it
to its logical conclusion VIC would find
it necessary, in n large number OF crimi-
nnl cases, to shield crimo in order TO
prevent disgrNcing n family. A man
having a noble vito and u number OF
respectable children is convicted Of a
deliberate, cold-bioodel murder; but his
family is dependent upon his labor for
their daily bread; should he be con-
yicted and punished i'll accordance with
law, his family is MOI: only deprived OF
their means OF support bnt his children
arc forever disgraced .nd their lives
ma1o a burden by tho stigma, "your
father was hanged" which uou Id fol-
low them to the ends OF tho earth. In
the namc OF humanity drop the matter
and let tho murderer go free! A a

character; tho evidence is %conclusivs ns
TO the guilt o.;he criminal; but IL lie
be sont to tho p,nitentiary his family
will bo forever disgracod. For tho sake
OF tho wife and children let the criminal
go free, mud do not disgrace n rcspecin-
bic family by dragging them into Court
and Eeioro tho public in n criminal
prosecution, rs there is no probability
that the accused will ever DO guilty Of n
