The Maybrick trial in Liverpool and
the testimony given in evidence that old
May brick used arsenic and whisky for a
tonic, and Mrs. Maybrick used the same
poison for her complexion, have had a
curious result. 1t has stimulated the
sale of arsenic cocktails and complexion
waters to an unheard of extent in Amer
lea as well as in Europe, Other fools cf
both sexes desire to test tie MAVERICK
recipes for themselves. Arsenic nos
trrlms for both the inside and outside Of
the human animal are plentiful on the
market. There are probably women
crazy enough to try any means under the
sun to secure a good complexion, except
the one method prescribed by nature and
hygiene.
An unusual crime or out of the way
achievement of any sort is sure to find
plenty of imitators. This fact seems to
favor the presumption that mankind are

A Clear Head,

1t is worthy of note that the two prin-
cipal labor leaders in Europe and Amer
ica-Burns in England and Powderly in
the United States-are advocates Of tee
totalism. Burns neither drinks nor

health and clear head enabled him to

The State Lands.

Now that statehood has been obtained,
the members of the Legislature are en-
deavoring to make arrangements to Sc
lect the donation lands granted to
Washington by the enabling act.
There are, in round numbers, $4,000
coo acres in the state-22, 100000 sur
veyed and 100000 unsurveyed. Of
the unsurveyed lands 100000 acres
are west of the Cascade mountains and
100000 this side OF the Cascades.
Nearly all of the surveyed lands and at
least 100000 Of the unsurveyed lands
are occupied by settlers.
The statute provides that donation
lands must be selected from the unoccu-
pied and unappropriated surveyed lands.
Under this state of affairs it is impossible
to make selections Of the indemnity and
donation lands, which at present amount
to 1,688,000 acres, until an extension of
the survey can be made. Mr.. Thomas
Cavanaugh, the surveyor general of the
state, says that unless Congress will
make an especial appropriation which
will permit more extended surveys than
can be made under the general appro-
priation it will be impossible to survey
more than the lands already occupied by
settlers, which, under the present ruling
must receive the first attention of gov
eminent in extending its surveys.
With the tide of immigration coming
to Washington from all parts of the
world in increasing numbers each year,
the public lands are taken up faster than
the surveys can be extended under the
annual appropriation allowed by the
government.
In justice to the public institutions of
the state, a special appropriation should
be made and the surveys extended be-
yond the borders Of settlements, to enable
the state to make its selections. General
Cavenaugh is now on his way to Wash
ington properly to present to the gov
ornment the situation Of the public lands,
and recommend such measures as will
enable the state to place her public insti-
buttons on an equal footing with those
of other states.
If some special provision is not made
by the government, it will be impossible
to select desirable lands for the state to
maintain the public buildings ecaght to
be established by the enabling act. All
these institutions are absolutely neces-
sary to carry on the state government,
and if not supported by the land grants
will have to be maintained by a direct
tax upon the citizens.-Review.

The Old Freyknecht- -Steger
Shooting and Scandal
Case Settled.

A compromise has been effected be
tween Mr.. and Mrs. Freynecht, of No. 2S
Manhattan avenue, and the son of ex-
Director Of the Board of Freeholders Emil
Steger. 1t will be remembered that the
daughter of Mrs. Freynecht was ruined
by young Steger, and his mother ex
cited by the resulting troubles
fired several shots from pistol at MEM
bers of the FreyDecht family. The story
of the affair was exclusively told in TIE
JERSEY CITY NEWS at the time.
The settlement has been brought about
by Counsellor Max Salinger. A goodly
sum of money has been paid Mr. Frey
necht, and the charge of attempted shoot
ing has been dropped.
Mr.. Freynecht's daughter was at SER
vice in the Steger family when her ruin
school. Mr.. Freynecht said to a reporter
today that young Steger had repeatedly
promised to support the child and to pay
all expenses, but he did not keep his
word. He also said that young Steger's
father, the ex- Freeholder, Ind suggested
that the babe be sent to Snake Hill.
He said that he had lived in Jersey City
for thirty eight years and that all of
his large family had turned
out well with the exception of
his unfortunate daughter. He said that
some money had been paid by young
Steger for medical attendance rendered
to his daughter by DIR. Nevin.
The ex-freeholder has number of
syInpathizers. His wife, when she learned
of her sons folly, suffered from emotional
insanity and has been Ill since. She was
very sensitive, and could not bear up
under her sons conduct.

Challenge Against Him as a
Grand Juror Will Be
Withdrawn Monday.
ON THE STOOL OF REPENTANCE.
His Threatening and Abusive
Language, However, We're Con-
clusively Proven at This
Mornings Hearing.

The hearing in respect to the chal-
lenge of THE JERSEY Cry News
against the swearing of Charles A.
Pfngsten as a Grand Juror took
place this morning at the Court
House.
Mr. Pfingsten took the witness stand
and swore that he bore no malice
against THE NEWS or any person or
persons connected with it. He said
he had spoken the words which
formed the basis of the challenge in a
moment of excitement. He had no de-
liberate plan or purpose to assail the
News or any members of its staff.
He had not intended to abuse his po-
sition as Grand Juror to their det-
riment, and, in fact, his violent
language uttered at the Board of Ed
ucation Office on the 4th inst. was a
mere passing ebullition of bad
temper.
In view of these sworn statements
of Mr.. Pfingsten, counsel has been in
structed to withdraw the challenge
against him on Monday morning, and
he may then be sworn as Grand
Juror and serve during the remainder
