He Sheds bright Light In the Dark
ness" and Oools off the American Bar
Association.
The annual session of the American
Bar Association, which was held in Bos.
ton, Mass, last week, ended on Friday
afternoon Senator George GRAY was
elected one OF the vice presidents. Judge
Grub, who was present at the meeting.
took an active part in the deliberations
OF the association. The Boston Herald
says
The two most important debates, OF
rather, the only debates of any conse-
quence that took place during the con
yention, related to the reports of the
committee ON judicial administration aud
remedial procedure, and the committee
on award of the medal The former com
mittee presented both majority and
minority report, in the FIRST OF which &
very important resolution was offered,
stating that the American Bar Associa-
tion recommends to the bar associations
OK the state the support OF such legisla-
tion or constitutional amendment s
as will provide for a verdict by
three -fourths of jury in civil
cases. This was strongly opposed In the

against such a radical change 10 the jury
system, arguing that II the proposition
were adopted, the majority rule would
follow; and that the whole system
should be abolished rather than elimin-
ate the essential and fundamental prin
ciple of nnanimity.
Several members, including Henry
Budd of Pennsylvania, Charles O. Ian
caster Of Washington D. g.; Mr. BUST
Of Chsrlestown, d. O., and Mr.. Diskin-
son of Tennessee took part In the dis
cussion that followed
The tempera .ure of the debate was
heading toward a pretty high point when
Judge Grub of Delaware arose and
moved that further consideration of the
question be postponed until next years
convention. thus giving the members q
chance to think long and seriously on
this all-important issue.
"His motion came like bright light in
the darkness and was quickly passed
without opposition"

The Little Feathered Autocrat OF the
Marshes wal Have ais Rights Disputed
by Local Gunners.
Tomorrow will be hailed with delight
by the sportsmen of this city and state
Upon that day the reed bird season
opens. This delight is very materially
heightened by the fact that this dainty
tid-bit OF the epicure is again plentiful.
To-day everything In the shape of e.
shooting iron is being cleaned for active
service and tomorrow the marshes ali
along the Delaware will resound with the
bang bang bang OF the fowling pieces
The birds are not only plentiful hut they
are fat, which only makes them more
eagerly sought after But a reed bird is
liked, no matter whether 1t is lean or fat.
Almost every small boat in the Brandy
wine and Christiana has been engaged
by gunners, and as it is necessary for q
gunner to have 'tpusher" to paddle him
around among the reeds, even ''pushersa
are becoming scarce and demand good
pay before they will engage themselves
to sit IN the stern sheets and maR the
oar.

Free Land no Great Boon.

~~~~--~~
N. w. Agriculturist: The craze for
free land is still abroad. In Wiscon-
sin, last month, men and women stood
for days and nights in line to file on
land lately thrown into market, and
the opening of every new Indian reser
walton presents the scene of ''rush' of
settlers, who spend more money, en-
dure more hardships and labor harder
to get 100 acres of raw land from the
government, than it would take to earn
a farm already improved in some we'll
settled county of the Northwest. An
intelligent and industrious man, not
afraid of work and faithful to his en-
ployer's interests, can get $18 to $50
per month, the year round, as a farm
hand, board and room furnished. His
only outlay will be for clothes, and, if
economical, he can save $500 per year.
Let him save his wages for five years,
the time required to get title to a
homestead, he should have at least
1900 cash ready to invest in farm
and stock, and there are thousands of
farms, with improvements, and near
schools, churches, and railroads, that
can be bought on such terms that
farmers with 5000 to $500 in cash to
stock with could start with certainty
of success. Tue homestead right is no
great boon to the pioneer of the pres
ent day. If he is a good buyer and
has patience, he can do better.
St Peter Herald: Last week res
olution passed both houses and senate
allowing every newspaper reporter
about the building, $3.50. All of this
howl about economy sounds pretty
rank when senators will appropriate
the peoples money for the purpose of
becoming solid with the newspaper
