THE MURNANE INDICTMENT.
Several Interesting Points Raised
by the Defense.

Judge Kerr was engaged the greater
part of yesterdays session in the dis
trict court with hearing arguments upon
the demurrer interposed to the indict-
ment against NJ. r. Murnane, the alb
stract clerk. Mr.. Durment contended
for two grounds of demurrer. The first
point is that the Office of abstract clerk
being created by special act, his Off cial
acts should be regulated by that act
alone, and he is not amenabte to regu-
latiOns of the general or penal law. 1t
was conceded that the indictment was
found under the general law. The other
point is-cOnceding the indictment to
have been framed under the proper law
it is insufficient in form for
two reasons: Murnane had the
right to retain fees collected to
defray expenses of running the office,
and the indictment should ailege that
the moneys obtainediwere not such as he
had a right to. 1t was further urged
that the word appropriate" used in the
Indictment was not one implying All Of
Tense under the law, and is not synony-
NOUS to convert when used i'll the
sense of ''wrOngfully converting to his
own use"
County Attorney O'Brien argue the
Sufficiency of the indictment. AS to
the first point. man is liable for di-
yerting moneys from its proper chan
mel. irrespective of his holding office
under special or general law, or even
if he held no Office at ali. As to the sec
ond point, he contended that wrong
full appropriation of money implied
conversion. The matter will be further
considered to-day, when it is expected
that ruling will be made upon the de-
murrer,

CaresSes of Her Child.


Caresses of Her Child.
Mrs. Bean, wife of Sheriff Ed S. Bean,
Is the temporary legal custodian OF a
beautiful brown-eyed babe of sixteen
months, that was the innocent casus
belli in a dramatic scene which had its
climax in Judge Egan's court yesterday
afternoon. The babe was carried before
his honor yesterday in response to

ton of the room. Attorney o. l.. Haese

arms, whilst the mother, with tears in
her eyes and OutStretched arms, called
Grace. Grace" in an entreating voice.
The babe began to cry. Judge Egan
called after them: Turn the child
over to the sheriff" The sheriff himself
followed closely and demanded the
mother to let the child alone. The babe
was transferred to the arms of the mat
ron at the court room door and it began
crying i'll earnest. The mother followed
into the elevator but was put off OH the
tlrst floor where she offered to pay Ban

court makes a further order in the case.

fetal agitation of the clouds has
possessed mems minds--or, rather,
some men's-for a number of years. A
civil engineer in Illinois, named Pow
ers, has recently published book on
the subject in which he maintains the
soundness of the theory with much
plausible argument and extensive cita-
ton of practical illustration, covering
every country in which gunpowder is
used in warfare. The authors argu-
ment is curious, and cannot fail to inn
press the careful reader with the belief
that the idea is at least within the
limit of possibility. At all events, the
Government has determined to give it
a trial. The papers inform us that
Professor Carl Myers, of Frankfort, n.
Y, has recently returned from Wash
ington, ID. c., where he was called to
consult with officials regarding the
carrying out of an extensive scheme
for promoting rainfalls in arid regions,
or during seasons of prolonged drought,
by producing conclusions III upper at
mospheres, for which Congress hiss
made appropriations. Prof. Myers
will begin operations with one hundred
balloons of various sizes. The charge
of mixed gases will be exploded at
various heights through the medium of
galvanic batteries and electric cables
which will serve both to retain captive
balloons and conduct the electric spark
to explosive compounds. The necessary
work will be done on his balloon farm
at Frankfort, where the oxygen and
hydrogen will be generated. Expert
ments will be made at Frankfort and
near Washington; finally the sky
stormers will be taken to the arid re-
gions of Texas, Colorado and other
States. Theory and statistics favor
the successful issue of the experiments.

Herald to-day:
"When woman pays 50 cents more a
yard for stuff TO make a dress of than
she would have pa d if the Mckinley bill
had not become Il law she should keep it
to herself. so doing she will confer a
great favor on President Harrison, who
thinks that he may get another term in

Now, don't this fool Democrat who
edits Hcrd6 know. or can't his wife tell
him. that everything a woman wears
costs less than it did before the Mckin-
ley bill passed. Calico is AZ cents per
yard; good summer silk costs from %
to 81 cents yard 1t used to cost II
Black silk can lie bought for from 60
cents to 81 that used to cost from 80 to
$3.50. Sugar costs cents that used TO
cost cents. Ribbons are half the old
price stockings the same, and Jerseys
since they are making them in this .coun-
try, cost half as much as the imported.
