This Case DAmissed.

The case of the State VS.. Tom Brown for

missed by County Attorney Gillespie on
the ground thai the plaintiff was asleep
when the offence was committed. 1t has
been held by a superior court that in case
where the victim is asleep the force that
must be used IN committing the offence is
not used, and, therefore, the crime as con-
templated by the law is not committed. In
view of these decisions, two in numbeg.

but dismiss the case against Brown.

The wedding of Miss Annie, daughter
of Judge George p Fisher of this State,
to Benjamin B. Cahoon of Frederick
town, Md, which took place in Wash

was erected. The space was curtained
off by draperies of smilax falling from
the projecting canopy, the corners filled
in with palms and the altar decorated
with annunciation lilies. When the

The Rev. DR.. Jacob Todd, who has
accepted an invitation to become pastor
of new Trinity NJ. Z. Church, Philadel-
phia, next conference year, will COM
plete five years pastorate at Grace
Church, this city, on March 18th, when
he will preach his farewell sermon.
Although il has not been determined
whether the sermon will be delivered in
the morning or the evening tprobably
will be delivered in the morning. During
a previous term DIR. Todd was pastor of
Grace Church from the latter part of
March, 1870, to the latter part Of March,
1873, and during both terms he rem
dered the church valuable service and
won many friends. New Trinity Church,
which is fine structure, is located at
Fifteenth and Master streets. 1t is an
elegant appointment and one of the best
in the gift of the Methodist Episcopal
denomination. Some years ago he was
pastor of old Trinity church. His
numerous friends in this city deeply
regret that the pastoral limit will not
permit him to remain longer at Grace.

Special Correspondence of Gazette and Journal
MIppLETowN, March 5.-W. B. Croft OF
Odessa explained the workings of his cure
for peach yellows to THE GAZETTE cor
respondent this morning. The mixture is
in the form of powder and is applied TO
the roots of the diseased tree. The dirt is
nearly all taken away and the powder put
as close to the roots as possible. without
touching them, thin layer of dirt only
intervening. After the application the
dirt is then thrown back around the tree
and left for about four months at which
time another application is made. Three
applications are all that is necessary to
effect cure. A liquid mixture is also put
on the diseased limbs but one time is
enough for this.
Mr.. Croft expects to have patent on his
mixture by the latter part of August, but
in the meantime will be using it wherever
wanted His lawyer in Philadelphia,
Avery Harrington, Esq, is looking. after
his patent and would have had it probably
by this time except for the large number
Of applications which are ahead of him.
Mr.. Croft is now doctoring q tree Of Or.
II. b. Mckee of this town and will give it
the second dose of the mixture as soon as
the warm weather will permit. He was
very much interested in the peach vel
lows bill'i at Dover but now that it is
killed he thinks his road is clear. He will
use his remedy on several trees belonging
to the farmers of this neighborhood as
soon as warm weather comes.

The spread over all is inches. The
rail tiange is 3 inches and the head of
the rail orperpendicular,back is 2 inches
in length. This is the 'tlat" or
"grade" rail and is the one in general
use along our street railways.
Still this is not in exact literalness a
grade rail, as may be perceived in
diagrams A, G or D, the direct grade
line is broken, by the head of the rail in
G and d, and also by the grade Of the
space between the rails as will be per-
ceived in extending diagram A to its
imaginary opposite rail in the track,
that is to say there would be dip be-
tween the heads of the two rails equiva-
lent in height to the height of the heads.
1t is conceded that it is not very great.
In stating however the alleged griev-
ances Of drivers of vehicles attention is
drawn to features in connection with
the rail depicted in diagrams A and B.
The rails are identical. Diagram B is
shown for the purpose of illustrating
what is considered radical trouble and
which, in more or less degree seems to
affect the types of rails 9 and D.

new AND OLD CAR RAILS
The PIaint of Carriage and
Buggy Owners.
THE KIND OF RAILS THEY WANT
Grade Rail, T Rail, and the
Rail Below Grade.
The Trouble to Vehicle Drivers Caused
by the Muddy RunIets Along the Rails
The Street Railway Companies Asked
to Remedy the Matter in Their New
Railway Extensions.

In view of the proposed street railway
extensions and of the concessions asked
by the two operating companies, the
City Passenger Railway and the Front
and Union Company, it is asked whether
the present is not suitable opportunity
for requesting those companies TO make
concessions in turn to the public, espe-
cially in the direction that whatever
kind of new rails are used in the future
they be of such description as will be
of less injurious effect on the vehicles
than those now laid along the streets.
1t is understood that there exists q
variety of rails mounting up to one hum
dred Of different kinds patented for
street railway purposes. They are of
every degree of expense But the feature
in the rail which mostly affects vehicle
owners is the extent to which it projects
above ground. The less of that feature
the safer it is for the carriage wheel.
The most modern rail is that below
grade altogether as shown in diagram
L. The most antiquated is the notorious
old L rail, which obtrudes its dangerous
height clear above grade.
The charter of the city railway pre-
cludes its using that obsolete article.
Nor would the company lay such rail
were there no restriction upon it in that
regard.
Although the supports and substruc
ture of the various rails flor there are
some three or four existing in the city,,
laid along the streets vary to some ex-
tent, all that is perceived by the eye
bears a general resemblance and is prac-
tically identical with what is shown in
diagrams A, Q and d.

Another variety of rail not yet seen
in this city is that where the fiange is
clearly below grade, the car wheel sink
ing into a channel or runlet three-quar-
tiers of an inch in measurement.
The objection of the officials of the
local street car companies to this rail is
that the runlet or channel would in this
city, on account of our poor street pay
ing, be continually getting filled so as to
obstruct Car progress.
Diagram L illustrates the below grade
rail showing the inch runlet into which
the street car wheel sinks.
1t is asked, in view of the proposed
large expenditure of 100000 on the

Diagram B shows how In use the Bel
gian block falls out of position, disclos-
ing the dangerous feature, as given in
the cut at the point next the head of the
rail. A more disagreeable and still
more dangerous, because more common
feature, is shown on the flange side of
the rail of the same diagram (B). Here
the cobblestone has fallen or has been
worked out of position. 1t is under
stood that this is caused by the inces-
SAINT falling away or working off of
wagon wheels from the flat surface of
the fange and gradually working
channel or bed at that point. In wet
weather, it is claimed, it is this runlet of
muddy water which causes such trouble
in sending continuous spray of gyrat-
ing spouts of muddy water upon the
