The sanctity of jury room appears to
be SO well guarded that even in case of
sudden sickness physician may not en-
ter except after due process of law. In
the Foss will case, tried recently in Bos-
ton, the jury We're celebrating, when
late one evening one of them was sud
denly attacked with what proved to be
stroke of apoplexy. The officer in
charge notified the deputy sheriff, who
not having authority to let any one into
the jury room, drove across the city and
informed the sheriff, but even this off,
cial was not high enough to act, and an
other expedition started in search of the
judge. AS the latter happened to be at
home, the requisite order was obtained
to summon doctor.-Boston Medical

Tho Dead Returned.

The announcement of the suicide of
DR.. F. D. Clarke, in Chicago, led to q
sensational incident when DIR. FL. V.
Oldtield entered Fenwick's restaurant to
take his dinner next day. With one &C
cord the people arose from their chairs.
Has the grave yielded up its dead?"
was the query on every face. DR.. Old
field looked startled himself. He turned
red, then white, and tottered to the
desk. The gentlemanly attendant drew
back. At last one courageous man ap-
preached the desk and said, care you
not dead?" This brought out an ex-
PLANTATION.
DR.. Oldfield bought DR.. F. D. Clarke's
business here two years ago, and, owing
to the reputation of the place, continued
the old name. Oldfeld is in feature,
form, manner and voice the exact coun-
terpart of the Chicago specialist.-De-

The following snake story is evolved
from Texas exchanges: Thursday even
ing last while Judge A. Mcfarland and
his son Guy were driving homeward they
saw large snake lying in the road. The
judge attempted to kill the snake by
crushing it with the wheel of his gig,
but instead of Cruising the serpent's
head" the judges wheel passed over its
tail. Instantly the snake cooled itself
around spoke, and at every turn of the
swiftly revolving wheel made vicious
strikes at Guys face. Guys only means
of escape was backward tumble from
the gig, which he took, falling into
pool of dirty water Then there was
mad boy as well as an angry snake.
Strange to relate the snake freed itself
from the wheel and attacked Guy in the
pool. A shower of stones from Guys
hand finished the snake.

A Chinese Gnxernnr

Tshang Yao, the governor of the pro-
vince of Shantung, who died recently,
was one of the highest dignitaries of the
Celestial empire. He had highly adj
venturous career. Born in lowly posi-
ton, he was obliged to fee in his youth
on account of having murdered the tor
mentor of an old man. He became a
robber and soon stood at the head of all
the brigands who made the province of
Human unsafe. When, during the re-
bellion, the chief town of the province
was threatened, the governor issued a
proclamation in which he promised the
hand of his daughter to the man who
would save the town from the enemy.
At the head of 500 bandits, Tshang
beat off the attack of the rebels, and led
home on the next day, as a reward for
his bravery, the almond eyed beauty.
Then he made rapid progress. He was
not able to read or write, but was of
great integrity, and died poor as he was
born. He was called by his people, on
account of his charity, Tshang, 'the
blue sky" 1t is said, however, that he
was not always just toward Europeans,
and especially the missionaries London

During windstorm in the early days
of last June a tree on the farm of Nor

DISTRICT COURT FUNDS.
Solicitor General Bartletts Opinion Al
fecting Colfax, socorro and Other
Counties.

The following opinion respecting the
district courts has been forwarded to the
clerk of the 4th district:
Hon. NJ A Otero, Clerk 4th District Court, Las
Vegas, n NJ.
SANTA FE, N. NJ, Oct. 3.-Your favor
of yesterday with copy OF the statement
from the auditor, showing the condition
of the various subdivisions of the court
fund in your district, by which it appears
that the witness fund in two of the coun-
ties is exhausted, and that there is only
$1S6 for that fund in Mora comfy, and
tnat the sheriffs' fund is exhausted in two
counties, with only ST. left in San Miguel,
and stating that Judge O'Brien had asked
you to write for my opinion as to his
right to order the clerk to issue certificates
against the different funds as they now
stand, has had my attention, and in reply
would say, that section 3, chapter 5, laws
of 1891, expressly prohibits any court OF
officer to issue any evidence of indebted
ness or require any service from any juror
or witness when there are no funds ap
proprated for such purpose, and in an
other section of the same law, prohibits
rhe auditor from drawing any warrant
against any fund unless there is money
in the fund to pay the same. Under
these circumstances, think it would be
violation of the spirit and intent of the
law, to issue any certificates in excess OF
the amount of money in the respective
funds; even though the appropriation is
not exhausted that is the view taken by
the judges of the LIST and 9th Judicial dis
tricts, and have no doubt it is the proper
construction. There will be no court held
in Socorro or Taos, for the trial of terri
toral cases on Account of the funds being
exhausted. The appropriation bill OF last
winter was about 40 per cent greater thar
the money received from the tax levy
and all branches OF the territorial govern
ment must suffer in proportion. 1t is
! very unfortunate condition of affairs, bu
inevitable under the circumstances.
Very respectfully,
EDWARD L. BARTLETT,
Solicitor General New Mexico.

The Royal Baking Powder Condemned

Last Monday Mr.. Kelly introduced the

An act to prevent the use of poisonous

Whereas, baking powders manufact.
ured in this state, known as the "ROYAL"
alum and other baking powders are adver-
tised for sale as absolutely pure; and.
Whereas, official examination show
them to contain ammonia and other in
furious ingredients; therefore the people
of the state of New York, represented in
senate and assembly, do enact as follows :
Section Every can or package OF
baking powder containing ammonia Of
fered for sale in this state shall have a
conspicuous label thereon with the words
"contains ammonia" printed thereon in

and any person who shall sell, or have OF

Altogether, the show was a fulillment
of every promise the management had
previously made.
Cerrillos railroad station sold thirty
round trip tickets to Santa Fe last night
and many drove across county in teams.
The show people were almost as greatly
interested in the historic sights about
Santa Fe as Santa Feans were in the
show.
1t requires three car loads of hay and
grain, 1000 loaves of bread, and $500
pounds of meat to feeds the circus folks
one day.

and pleasant, companionable gentle
man, is the press agent of the great show.
He is the right man in the right place.

The horses are superb; in fact the

stitutes one OF its specially attractive fea-
lures.

to the old Snowman, but he got his thirty
years of training under "the old man,"
and he knows his business.
An even dozen extra policemen are on
duty to-day. They wear tin badges with

Reserved chair seats are on sale at Ire

An admission fee of $3.50, which in
cludes reserved seat, is pretty steep, but
this is the aame price charged in Denver.
In that city IN two days the show took in
$4,000. 1t will get out of Santa Fe with
about $4,000.
