Legal Hair.splitting.

Hugh Nevin was granted new trial
by the Circuit Court at Georgetown last
week, because the verdict of the jury
which found him guilty was not respon.
sive to the indictment. This will make
the third hitch at keeping QUITO the Pen
itentiary for Nevin. 1t will be recollect-
ed that the finding of the jury was that
of "guilty of shooting with intent to kill"
without qualifying the intent-that is,
saying whether it was justifiable shoot
ing with intent to kill or otherwise.
There is a great deal of hair splitting in
the practice in Brown county. The
sight is so fine, frequently, that the av-
erage citizen can't see it. For instance
Mat Arm, an erstwhile dealer in red.eye,
was indicted for selling Intoxicating
liquors to one James Z. Loudon, minor,
without the written consent, as the in
dictment stated, of his parents" Arm
was found guilty and sentenced to Jail,
but appealing the case, the sentence
was suspended. Last week the Circuit
Court got around to Georgetown and
the question raised below that the in
dictment was not in accordance with
the statute which required only the con-
sent of the "parent" was sustained aud
Arm released. The Court held that un-
der the indictment the consent OF both
father and mother was required while
under the law Arm could have sold to
the boy upon the written consent Of
either.-People's Defender.

An important decision was rendered
by the United States Supreme Court
yesterday in the case of Deputy-Marshal
Neagle, who shot Judge Terry in Cali.
fornia last summer in the belief that
Terry was about to commit deadly as.
sault on Justice Field. Neagle was ar.
rested, but was released on writ OF habeas
corpus. The Supreme Court holds that
he was properly discharged from custody.
The gist of the decision is that the kill.
ing of Terry was done "in pursuance OF
the laws Of the United States," and that
Neagle was guilty of no crime under the
laws of California. The opinion is writ
ten by Justice Miller. Justice Field, of
course, took no part in the decision. 1t
is specially noticeable that dissenting
opinion is given by Chief.J Justice Fuller
and Justice Lamar, the two members of
the court appointed by President Cleve-
land. They hold that the United States
had no jurisdiction in the case, and that
Neagle was answerable alone to the laws
of the State where his act was committed.

but of what sort? With the exception
of conversation club here and there,

comfort and idle lounging, many of them
known, as other workmen are, by their
"chips' /? What sort of book would

Workshop" Do the young men, to any
extent, join in Browning clubs and
Shakespeare clubs and Dante clubs? Do
they meet for the study of history, of
authors, of literary periods, for reading
and discussing what they read Do they
in concert dig in the encyclopedias, and
write papers about the correlation of
forces and about Savonarola, and about
the Three Kings? In fact, what sort OF

How are they preparing to meet socially

their minds? Are they adapting them
selves TO the new conditions or are they
counting, as they always have done, on
the adaptability of women, on the facili-
ty with which the members of the bright
sex can interest themselves in base ball
and the speed of horses and the chances
of the Street? Is it comfortable for

Millions In It.

The bridge bill introduced in the Leg
islature by Assemblyman George Greit-
singer of Brooklyn, and now on the
order of the third reading in the AS
sembly. reveals scheme of vast propor-
tions. The bill provides for the raising,
of 100000 for the construction of the
bridge and its approaches. This sum
is $40, 100000 in excess of that provided
for in Senator McCarrens bill which
met its death recently in the Senate.
The amount named in Senator Nc
Carren's bill was thought sufficient to
erect suspension bridge similar to the
present structure. 1t is rumored in
various circles thai the purpose OF the
bill behind the Gretsinger scheme is to-
secure the right to erect the structure
and then to dispose of it to capitalists.
The magnitude of the enterprise, how
ever, make these rumors unworthy of
credence. 1t would be less difficult to
dispose of a franchise calling for an ex-
penditure of Sl0,000,0O0 than for one in
which S40,0O0,O0O is the amount named.
Investigation proves that there is some
thing more than a suspension bridge for
the accommodation OF New Workers and
Brooklynites behind the project. 1T is
said that the effect of the passage OF the
measure would be to establish direct
railroad communication between Brook
lyn and the West and render Brooklyn
Independent of New York for its COM
mercial prosperity. A structure higher,
heavier and stronger than the present
bridge and embracing some of the prin-
ciples of the cantilever bridge is provid-
ed for. 1t is so designed that up to a
certain point the structure would become
firmer as the strain increased, and this
adapts it for bearing the weight OF heavy
passenger and freight trains drawn by
locomotives Of ninety tons. 1t is pro-
posed, it is said, to continue the tracks
from the New York terminus of the
bridge to the Grand Central depot, thus
securing connection with the New York
Central, the Harlem and the New Haven
roads, Times.Stdr.

returns was only 20 On the other hand,
it is very possible that the contest of Nc
Duffie, Republican, against Turpin, Dem
ocrat, in the Fourth district OF Alabama,
will be decided, both in the committee
and in the House, in favor of the Repub-
lican. notwithstanding that that the
official returns gave Turpin majority
OF 13, ,l53, or more than twice the entire
vote allowed to McDuflie. In the Ind
lana case it was question of the legality
OF few votes cast for the Democrat.
while in the Alabama district it is CUES
ton of the suppression of many thousand
Republican votes and the counting Of
thousands not honestly cast for the DEM
ocrat. What could more forciiLy show
the broad and just attitude OF the ma
jority in Congress regarding election con-
tests. Technicalities are not considered
OF any moment, while fair play is de-
manded at any cost. That is ae true

The following clipping taken from the

place, however widely some might differ
from the writer in their desire to obtain
butter, former oven in which an editor,

But read the letter:
To the Editor Of the Times-Star:
In an editorial last evening in regard

which came into my mind whilst reading
the article, and ! give it to you for what
it may be worth, that is, that if the pro-

Under the head of merchants Carni-
VAL" the Middleton Daily Signal prints
the following flattering notice OF Bowles
& Co..
One OF the novel features OF the en-
tertainment was the speech, or rather
the lack of a speech, by Miss May
Moren, representing Bowles & Co.'s
wall paper, book and china store. When
she tripped out on the stage with her
wall paper fan and hat, string of diar
monds (cut glass; at her waist and after
dinner coffees around her neck, china
basket with rosebuds in one hand and q
big book in the other, everybody expect
ed fine speech. But not word did
she say. Her pretty costume and silence
attracted more attention than a dozen
speeches. This firm has been in business
in Middletown only little more than q
year, but their large stock and increasr
ing trade has compelled them to seek y.
larger room, and this week they have
moved into the room formerly occupied
by A. T. Murray, next to the post-otiice.
No doubt the many friends of this
firm in Highland county will be pleased
to learn of their prosperity and wish
them continued success.

While rapid transit across the Allan
tic is not in its infancy, yet it cannot be
said to have as yet reached its limit of
speed. The Majestic, new White Star
Line steamship, made her maiden trip
across the Atlantic in six days, ten and
one.half hours. This is the fastest
maiden trip on record. This new vessel
has only one point Of difference irom the
Teutonic of the same line which Is called
one of the greyhounds of the sea. The
only marked difference in the construe.
ton Of this ocean.flier is that instead of
four blades to her propellar, as is the
usual number, the Majestic has but
three. It nowrenains to be seen II this
new departure from former ways will in
crease the speed Of vessels with this
kind Of propeller. ~ rA

Binder TWine.

Itrequiies annually So, 900 tons of Bind.
er Twine to bind the grain crops of the
country. Ten years ago all the self-bind-
ers in existence required but few tons.
The industry practically started with a
visit made by Mr.. VIM. Deering, the har-
vester manufactures, of Chicago, to Hon
Edwin H. Filter, rope manufacturer,
and the present mayor of Philadelphia.
Mr.. Deering subsequently found it SO diff
ficult to get perfect twine that few
years ago he equipped large twine fac
tory with the best and most modern ma
chinery, and is now making his own
twine. The value of the annual output
of binder twine is about $l4,OOO,0OO.

In a recent issue, the New York Woa3d
gave review of the corrupt history of
Matthew Stanley QUAY. 1t covered two
pages of closely printed matter in that
paper.
AS Quay is now absolute Boss of the
Republican party in Pennsylvania, and
likewise the leader OF that party in the
country at large, it is well that the people
are made familiar with his true character.
His whole career is corroded with jobbery
and corruption.

ever, were not given so miuutely as IN the

moral sense is not blunted, should read
this page of history. one of the darkest in
the annals of the State, with its pathetic
features, and ponder it well.

odious methods and fragrant violations of

ERECTING monuments to worthy peo-
pie who have departed this life, does
not prosper, as was formerly the case
The proposed Grant monument in New
York is an illustration in point, and the
proposition to erect one with funds con-
tributed by the pullic schools of the State
to the memory of the late DIR. Higbee,
State Superintendent of public schools,
gives promise of like failure. One
hundred and fifty-three schools have been
heard from, the sum total of whose con-
tributions amount to only $135.65, or less
than dollar each. This is certainly not
very encouraging, but it is not surprising.
If the contributions to the fund are ex-
pected to come from the children of the
public schools, the paucity of the contri-
buttons is easily accounted for by
the fact that possibly not one
in a hundred of them ever heard
of DR.. Higbee, or understand what
particular claim that worthy gentleman
has npon their liberality. The project of
erecting monument 20 his memory origi-
mated with those who were closely allied
with him, who understood and appreciat-
ed his many estimahle qualities, and who
unreasonably inferred that everyone else
was as familiar with those attributes as
themselves. This is not unusual.

WHAT GOOD JUDGMENT WILL DO

The good judgment displayed by the
Democratic party of the city has won
for it the proper reward. Seldom has
there been more unity of purpose and
greater harmony of action than that
which has characterized the deliberations
of the Democratic party of this city, To
this fact more than to anything else is
due the sweeping victory on Tuesday
last Such methods will win every time
and it isto be hoped that in the future
the same acquiescence in the wishes of
the majority of the party will mark its
progress. If such be the case the dom
mating party in the Conemaugh Val
ley will ever be the Democratic party.
