WASHINGTON, January 1.-THE
Supreme Court rendered an opinion
in the case of Frank M. Dent, plain.
tiff in error, VS.. the State OF West
Virginia, in error, to the Supreme
Court of Appeals. Dent was con-
victed Of unlawfully engaging in the
practice Of medicine without a di
ploma, in violation Of a statute of
the State Dent appealed the case
to the State Court of Appeals, as
sorting that the act was unconssitu-
tional inasmuch as it deprived him
of liberty and property without due
process of law contrary to the four
teenth amendment to the constitu-
ton. The Court of Appeals gave
Judgment against Dent and the court

Over a Bloody Murder.

EATON, o., January 15-Saturday
night Mrs Caroline Sharkey, wild
ow, aged forty-six years, living on
her small farm two miles north OF
here, was found murdered. She was
found lying on her back in pool OF
blood, with the back of her head
crushed to jelly and her arm brok-
en-. The murdered woman had been
struck with a wooden maui, having
iron rings at both ends. 1t was
matted with blood The victim was
murdered in her bed.
Her son Elmer, about twenty-five
years of age, says he left his mother
sitting up about s o'clock and went
to bed. He was awakened some time
in the night by a noise on the STAIR
way leading to his room, and sprang
through the window, glass and all,
jumping thirty feet to the ground
He ran to John Clarke's. near by,
and the two returned to the house,
to find his mother dead.
There was many conflicting facts
that tend to weaken his statement.
Elmer seemed utterly Indifferent to
his mothers terrible fate, and has
not once showed a sign of feeling ex-
cept by the offer of 81 900 reward
for the murderer
Elmer is heir to the 100 acre farm,
which is good for the 81 900 reward.
The neighbors who investigated
think Elmer killed his mother, and
going to his room, undressed and,
jumping out of the window, alarmed
the neighbors.
This case is similar to one about
year ago Of young Beal, who killed
his mother and ran to some neigh
bors and told a story about tramps
having killed her.
There has been a great deal of ex-
citement over this case, and some
threats were made Sunday. Wise
counsel will prevail, however, for
Eaton has had some experience with
mob law that will not soon be for
gotten.

A Liberal Democratic Paper on Blaine

Petersburg Inder-AppeoJ( Dene.)
There is pretty general belief
now, as there was any time after N o.
vember, by careful and intelligent
observers of affairs, that Mr.. Blaine
can be secretary Of state if he so
wishes. The plain truth is that Mr..
Blaine is more a Republican leader
and has more admirers among the
people, irrespective of party, than he
had when nominated for the presi-
dency in the Summer of 1884. When
Mr.. Cleveland sent his remarkable
Free-trade message to Congress, a
most astonishing message inasmuch
as it proposed a revolution in the
Democratic revenue position, MAX
ing the internal taxes paramount, no
man in either party met the impor-
tant document with so intelligent
protest as Mr.. Blaine, and, while he
did not go so far as he should have
gone, and did not urge the entire re-
peal of internal revenue laws, he took
position that gave his party cour-
age and made victory for it possible.
Mr.. Harrison, with the profits of VIC
tory in his pocket, is not likely to
forget. But it is a question if Mr..
Blaine wishes any office under the
Administration.

Hunters Shot by Mistake.

Topeka, KAN, Jan. 16.-The MUIR
derers of Byron Dennis and John
Godown have been arrested. The
two men named left Mcpherson,
Kan, three weeks ago, and went in
to the Indian territory on hunting
expedition, travelling in a boat down
the Arkansas river. After they had
reached the territory, between Os-
age and Pawnee reserves, Indians
ambushed along the Osage.side fired
on them, killing Dennis and mortal
ly wounding Godown, who has since
died. The killing of the two men
was the result of old crime. An In
dian testified in whiskey case at
the last term of the United States
district court at Wichita that he had
purchased whiskey of a peddler in
the Usage nation. When he return
ed to the reserve some one split his
head open with an axe, killing him
instantly. The deputy United States
marshal of the Usage nation, Ed
Mathews, with the warrant for the
arrest OF the murderers, proceeded {
few days ago To the place where the
Indian was killed. and was sho'
from an ambush. He also died

The Presidents Nominations.

/ WASHINGTON, Jan. Is SPECIAL L.
The President keeps ct work making
out nominations as though he expect
ed the Senate to fill every vacancy,
present and prospective, with Demo
Gratis, and to make promotions by the
wholesale. He sent large number
to the Senate to-day. Postmaster Gen
eral Dickinson is very much worried
because nominations for postofices,
even where vacancies do not exist, are
not confirmed. 1T is not treating
the Administration right" he remark
ed in referring to the matter. He is
trying to get even by removing all
the Republicans in the Railway Mail
Service.
A Democratic senator said to-day
that he failed to see wisdom in the
action of the President in continuing
to send to the Senate nominations Of
persons to fill Offices, the commissions
OF which usually ran four years, nor
did he see any sense in the attempt
to fill any more Offices by new appoint
ments, except in a few isolated cases
where the business of the Government
or of community may necessitate
immediate appointment.
The Democratic senator's say that
they are satisfied the Senate will not
co firm any more of Cleveland's four
year nominees during the less than
seven weeks which now remain of his
administration. Not that such APP
pointees would be in anywise more
secure or free from removal by the
incoming Republican Administration,
but it is not worth while to fill official
vacancies for SO short a period. That
is the Democratic view of the situa-
ton and it may prove to be nearly
correct.
There are now..in the hands,,of Senat
committees 344 of Cleveland's nomi-
nations, and it is not improbable that
the majority of them will remain in
committeeman pigeon holes until
the Cleveland Administration and
this Congress both die on the 4th of
March. Among the ''hung-up" NOM
nations are about $50 postmasters.
The remainder comprise United
States district judges and attorneys,
judges in territories, customs and in
ternal revenue officials, and several
officers under the Interior Depart
ment in the Indian and Public Land
Services. About the only nomina.
tons which will go through without
serious retardation are those of pro-
motions in the army and navy.
The Senate tonight confirmed the
nomination of Newberry for Postmas-
ter of Chicago. He was appointed in
place of Judd, removed.
