TRENTON, Nov. q, 1S91.-A fine new
mounting for the Peddie telescope has
just been presented to the Observatory by
II. E. Deats. The old mounting was the
one formerly used on the tripod when the
instrument was used out of doors on the
campus. That was good enough for that
purpose. but entirely inadequate to the

dog, and were debating what to do with him
The newcomer suggested that they tie a
bunch of crackers to his tail. This was done.
ana when the crackers began to fizz and pop
the dog, with wild howl of terror, dashed iato
the waiting room. scattering sparks and yelps
as he went, and plunged head first into the big
base horn, which the boy had left lying on the
floor.
With such force did he project himself into

The Ozburn case.

The doctors Of the legislature have taken
profound interest in Ozburn, the Atlanta
murderer, who is sentenced to be hanged
to-day. There is no fault to be found with
them on that account, but before UNDER
taking to pass upon the murderer's mental
condition they ought to have been thor
oughly satisfied of their fitness to act as ex-
perts in insanity. There is no doubt that
they were influenced by the best of motives,
and it may be that they are as capable of
deciding whether man is insane or not as
the most distinguished insanity expert in
the land, but as their experience with men
tai diseases cannot have been very great,
ana as 1t is an extremely difficult matter in
many cases to determine whether the
patient is insane or not, the legislature,
doubtless, acted wisely in refusing to pass
the resolution to send Ozburn to an asylum.
The murder which Ozburn committed
was without any excuse whatever. He shot
TO death an unarmed and inoffensive citizen
simply to gratlfy feeling of ill-will. I'm
less 1t is absolutely certain that he is insane,
the law ought to bs permitted to take its
course. But if he is hanged it will be be-
cause satisfactory proof was not furnished
to the governor that he was insane. The
governor is a man of good Judgment, and is
inclined to mercy, but he knows that 1T is his
duty to see that the law is enforced
Too many murderers escape on one plea
and another. There is not the regard for
human life that there should be. 1t is sell
dom that white man who commits a muir
der is made to pay the penalty of his crime
The sooner the law is enforced promptly
and vigorously against murderers, white and
black, the better it will be- for society.

The Ocean Man Subsidy.

1t does not now look as if the Postmaster
General would get many responses to
his advertisement for bids for carrying the
ocean mails under the ocean mail service
act. the purpose of the act Is the eheour
agement of American commerce. Inc SUD-
sid, for which it provides IS 50 smaI lhat
there is doubt whether any company would
feel justified, from business point Of view,
in undertaking to comply with Its require
ments.
Tbosa who were most urgent in behalf Of
this subsidy legislation were greatly dissat-
! isfed with what they obtained. They dId
not get what they asked for by great deal,
and It is probable that after they found out
what sort OF a bill was going to be passed
thew would have defeated il gladly II they
| could.
To obtain the subsidy steamships having
a high rate of speed must be built in this
country, and for the first Two years they
are in service oue-fourth of their crews
must be American citizens, for the next
three years one-third and afterward one
hall. Il costs a great deal more to build
steamships in this country than in Eng
land. and the wages of American seamen
are higher. 1t is apparent, therefore, that
a good deal of money in the shape Of subs
sidy is needed in order TO enable American
steamships to compete successfully with
those of England.
This subsidy scheme is Of republican ORR
gin. The republicans saw that this country
would never regain the place it once held on
the ocean unless something we're done to
encourage ship-building. They were not
willing. of course. to so reduce the tariff
that ships could be built in American ship
yards as cheaply as they can in the ship
yards of England, and so they determined
to tax the people to build up American
commerce.
The democrats have always maintained
that the only obstacle in the way Of cover
ing the ocean with American steamships
was the protective system, and If they had
control of all the branches Of the govern
ment they would quickly remove that
obstacle. However, an effort is being made
TO try the republican plan, and it does not
now look as if it would be
SUCCESSFUL. IL WOuId not DS surprising
if an attempt should be made during this
congress to have the subsidy very consider
ably increased. II the republicans had con-
troll of both branches of congress there is
not much doubt that it would be made, and
that it would succeed. The House being
democratic, however, and believing in an
altogether different method of building up
a merchant marine, subsidy schemes are
not likely to receive much encouragement.
The responses to the Postmaster Generals
advertisement will be awaited with good
deal of interest. 1t is pretty safe to say
that the number of them will not be large.
The prospective gains from establishing
subsidy steamship lines are not sufficiently
attractive to justify the belief that there is
a widespread anxiety to obtain them.

incessant drought consequent upon the
change in watercourSes since the disastrous

movement. Since the farmers became en-

Under the peculiar provisions Of English
law the conviction Of a person OF a crime
for one purpose cannot be regarded as
conviction of the identical crime for an
other purpose. Therefore the American
insurance company which wrote a policy
upon Mr.. Maybrick's life will have TO again
convict Mrs. Maybrick of the murder of
her husband before it can legally withhold
from her the insurance money. That is a
fine thing for the solicitors aud barristers.
