DER-SMGTH AFFAIR.
A Costly and pisagreeable Suit-Il
Doesn't Pay to Law over Small
Contention.


The Smith-Reeder suit which wa,
appealed from Justice Applegate' s
court is being heard i'm the circuit
court today. AS soon as the case Of
the state against A r Zumwalt was
disposed of yesterday afternoon, in
which he was convicted and fined
for taking part in the Aumsvile
riot, which was an outgrowth of the
case now in court, the present case
was up.
The case is now on trial before the
following jury: c. w. Scribner,
D. L. Green, J. c. Baker, A. S. Cone,
Chas. Lemsky, S. p. Farreus, f. L.
Briggs, w. Holcomb, Thos. Town
send, S. w. Tate, G. l.. Watt and
w, Driver.
The participants in this case have
learned ere this that litigations are
very Improbable, except to lawyers.
This is not the only disadvantage
of such neighborhood rows. 1t is a
stigma against the community
where they are committed. The
peace loving citizens If Aumsville
are disgusted with this ease. Itwas
first in the Justices court there and
was then brought to this city and
was in the Justices court here at two
different times, 1t has been in the
circuit court in three forms. In ad.
dition to the expense to the parties
at litigation, it has cost the county
considerable in jury and witness
fees and occupying the court several
days.

DANGEROUS WHEN FULL.
Explorer Stanley's Story of the Brandy
Hotties.

Explorer Stanley's Story of the Brandy
At dinner in London lately Mr..
Henry NJ. Stanley, the African OK
piorer, related some experiences of his
latest journey, one of which was de-
cidedly interesting. Several men of
the expedition. he said. received on
starting out bottle of brandy each.
The liquor was French, and the bottles
were ornamental.
The first two months of the long jour-
ney were easiest of all, and did not tax
severely the endurance of the men,
who nevertheless found it convenient,
having the brandy at hand, to consume
it little by little, so that at the end Of
those two months their supply of the
stimulant was exhausted.
After that the hard work of the jour-
ney began, The men were none the
worse for the lack of brandy. Mr..
Stanley, after his many African jour-
neys, knew this perfectly well. On a
long and hard march in any country,
stimulants are useless. In an African
journey. where everything depends up
on cool head, steady will power
which is subject to no fluctuations and
o state of bodily endurance without
reactions, alcohol is particularly in
furious.
But, Mr.. Stanley had cautioned his
men, after they had exhausted their
brandy. to keep the bottles. They did
SO, and by and by they found some ma
tives who were highly DESTROYS of pos.
sessing those articles. Being in need
OF provisions. Stanley exchanged the
empty bottles for supplies to the value
of twenty-five pounds sterling, which
sum was very much moro than the
brandy was ever worth at the highest
valuation. This experience seems to
suggest that while it may be wise to
take BOTTLES into central Africa, it is
rather better, on the whole, to take
them empty than filled.-Youth's Com

LIQUOR IN POLITICS.
A Foreigners Impressions Of Our Political
System.

A ForoiEnor's Impressions OF Our POLITICAL
System.
A German traveller who recently
made flying visit to this country,
studying carefully the workings OF our
political system in some of our larger
cities, and referring to his visit in San
Francisco, says in one of his letters: II
went to a saloon where gentlemen In
terested in ward politics nightly con.
gregate. They were not pretty per-
sons. Some of them were bloated, and
they all sworc cheerfully until the
heavy gold watch-chains on their fat
stomachs rose and fell again, but they
talked over their liquor as men who
had power and unquestioned access to
places of trust They talked of prac-
teal politics; they had been there.
they knew all about it. They banged
their fists on the table, and spoke of
political pulls the vending of votes,
etc." He adds: ''Thcirs was not the
talk of village babblers, reconstructing
the affairs of the nation. but of
strong, coarse, lustful men, fighting for
spoil, and thoroughly understanding
the best methods of reaching It," After
he had listened to this conversation of
saloon politicians, and later to polit-
ical speech addressed to them and their
compeers as constituents, he said: Il
began to understand why my pleasant
and well-educated host in San Fran
cisco spoke with bitter scorn of such
duties of citizenship as voting and tax
ing an interest in the distribution of
officers. Scores of men, he said. have
told me without false pride that they
would as soon concern themselves with
the public affairs of the state as rake
muck with the steam shovel" This il
as others sec us who come from abroad
as students of our political institutions
from the saloon standpoint of our large
cities. We may we'll be thoughtful
concerning the future in the light of
such picture as is thus presented to
disinterested observers of our present
municipal situation. - Northwestern

The Pittsburgh Times thinks ut is
only a question of time as to whether
or not women will monopolize the work
of teaching in the public schools. In
forty cities having a population each of
10000 and above in states east and west,
north and south, they outnumber the
men in the schools by more than five to
one-s, ITO to 655, according to census
bulletin just issued. In smaller COM
munities and in the rural districts the
proportion is still greater, perhaps be-
cause the men who want to teach as a.
profession or while preparing for a pro-
fession, crowd into the cities, there the
salaries being highest

THERE is rejoicing among the friends
OF temperance in the fact that they
number an English duchess among their
ranks. The new duchess of Bedford,
hitherto the marchioness of Taristock,

listed in the cause of temperance are

A CURIOUS fact noted in connection
with the epidemic of grip still preva-
lent in London is that it has almost
wholly spared members of the dramatic
and musical profession. Inas1nuch as
such persons do not enjoy any advar,-
tags over the rest of the community in
the matter of hygicnic surroundings,
the most likely explanation of their
exemption is that the constant use of
the vocal organs tends to fortify them
against the Judgment of the grip germs.
