footed beast, camels, horses, mules, buffaloes
and cows. We saw one family of four jog
ging along on a fine dun COW, whose horns
were painted vermilion in honor of the oc-
casion. Of camels there were plenty. They
seemed very frequently overloaded, as it
was a common sight to see some poor beast
down under its burden, with woolly baby
camel making piteous moans over its suffer-
ing mother. They often carry two riders,
and we passed countryman leading about
wife and sister, aged ladies who yelled
their charms as we drove by, modest GUS

Attorney B. C. Cnristy has issued card to
the public regarding his connection with the
License Court. 1t reads:
"It having come to my knowledge that cer-
tain persons have alleged that for considera-
tion have agreed to inform the court of the
misdeeds of some of the license applicants and
suppress Information concerning others and
aid their applications, have to say that the
statement is only one-half true. 1 have, for a
consideration, agreed to inform the court of
the misdeeds of certain applicants, and in
addition to this in every case in which have
information 1 have honestly informed the
court of the same whether am paid for 1t or
not But neither living man nor dead ghost
can truthfully say that 1 have in any way.
directlyor indirectly, agreed, either expressly
or implicitly, to suppress any fact within my
knowledge concerning any applicant on the
list. And further, if any reputable citizen
knows anything detrimental to the character
of the applicant or his place, and will furnish
me with the information, will so inform the
court. Or they can make it known to the court
themselves"

for License Gotten Through
With in a Week.
INCREASE OVER LAST YEAR.
Hearings Are Quiet, as the Old Of
tenders Have Disappeared.
BETTER CLASS OF APPLICANTS.
The Judges Have Several Times Noted the
Wonderful Change.
COURT HAS ADJOURNED UNTIL MONDAY

The first week of License Court has proven
very successful from a speed point of view.
During the five days in which the court was
in session $50 cases were disposed Of, rs on
Monday, Is on Tuesday, Go on Wednesday,
6S on Thursday and "A yesterday. The
first 13 wards have been disposed of and 16
cases from the Fourteenth ward were heard.
Only 33S cases were heard the first week
last year. Yesterdays work began with
the Twelfth ward and included the first part
OF the Fourteenth. The work was a little
more rapid than on the previous day, though
it was yet slow and uninteresting. There
will be no session of the court to-day, but it
will again open for business Monday at $50
A. NJ.
This session of the Allegheny county Lii
cense Court is only remarkable for its lack
of interest. Notwithstanding the regular
appearance of Mr.. Christy, the majority OF
the cases move along quietly, and that gen
tleman finds very little to keep him busy.
Judge Magee has several times remarked at
the better class of applicants who appear.
Before the Brooks law went into effect the
DueAu6bs Was SOlnCniab IuA INV anu AOA a
while the old saloon keepers believed that
they could continue in the business, no
matter what their previous records may
have been.
Now, however, the majority of these cases
have entirely disappeared, though once in
awhile the Judges find an old offender who
has the temerity to face them and apply for
9 license. There are also a great many of
that class who find that violating the liquor
laws don't pay any longer, and have re-
formed "for revenue only" When the
Judges find such cases they sometimes feel
like favoring the applicant, for such people
usually understand how TO keep the law as
well us how to break it.

The traffic between the capital and the
station at Chitor is marvellous and mis-
cellaneous. We travelled in state in car
riage sent over for us by the Maharana,
horsed through by the "mail agent" in
shifts of about six miles. We galloped from
stage to stage, the driver blowing furious
horn, and covered the 70 miles in just seven
hours. The horses are little fellows about

the bravest soldiers in the world. As we
got among the Aravali mountains we passed
occasional companies of fierce bIack-locked
Bheels, the untamed aborigines of the dis
trIct, armed with bow and arrows, without
which they never leave their mountain huts;
the women in red dresses, with colored lac
bangles from wrist to armpit. They are
mighty hunters, and will even attack tigers,
dispatching them with their arrows, long
reeds tipped with eight or nine inches of
forged iron; they form large section of the
population, and claim the right for Bheel
to hand the emblems of royalty to anew
Maharana at his coronation.

city I have ever seen has any resemblance,
but it is like the Grand Canal of Venice
translated to Lake Como. The tank, called
the pichola lake, was made by Udai Sing

LAURA GREENS DIVORCE SUIT.

NEW YORK, March 20.-In the Supreme
Court special term to-day, the trial of Mrs.
Laura R. Green's suit for an absolute divorce
from Douglass Green, the former partner of
Commodore Bateman, in Wall street, was
begun.
Green created a sensation by eloping with
Mrs. MacRae, and is now living in Europe.
He never put in any answer to the suit. The
plaintiff offered two witnesses. Their evil
dence being insufficient, Judge O'Brien ad-
journed the case in order to secure further
evidence.
