Height of Cruelty.

Nervous women seldom receive the sympathy
they deserve. While often the pictures of
health, they are constantly ailing. To withhold
sympathy from these unfortunates is the height
of cruelty. They have weak heart, causing
shortness of breath, fiuttering, pain in side,
weak pnd hungry spells and finally swelling of
ankles oppression, choking, smothering and
dropsy. DIR. Miles New Heart Cure is just the

Disastrous Confiagration.

OsCoDA, Mich, Jan. 1S.-The most de-
structive fire Au Sable has suffered started
in the dry goods store of Dan Rosenthal &;
Co., at s'45 Friday evening and was not
gotten under control until l o'clock this
morning, after nineteen buildings had been
burned. All the hydrants within two
blocks of where the fire started were found
to be frozen up; a delay of half an hour was
experienced in getting the first water on,
and then the water-works pump refused to
work satisfactorily and only two small
streams could be thrown. The thermome-
tor stood Mt zero and this greatly retarded
work. The loss is $75,0 600.

The January number Of the Atlantic
Monthly is an exceedingly strong one. The
opening article is chapters 1-3 of the new
serial, don OrsinO" by +. Marion Crawford.
These chapters outline a story of intense in
terest, and give us an incidental picture Of
the Rome of to-day as contrasted with Rome
In the days of the Pope's temporal power,
which is, Of itself, of special value to the
student of every day affairs. Henry James
has a delightful Renaissance of the poet
James Russell Lowell, referring specially to
his London life. Emerson's Boston is a
lively sketch of that old town, Astounding In
Emersonian phrases, and will both interest
and instruct the general reader. The pc.
litical article is of peculiar value just at this
time. These, with some other dozen other
attractive sketches, stories and the COntri-
butors Club constitute the literary feast to
which HoughtOn, Mlfflin & Co. inyite the

chief prosecuting witness. This express
sion of doubt the trial Judge could not,
without manifest impropriety. criticise.
But he can and does suggest that the ex-
preston referred to by the chief judicial
tribunal Of the State, as matter of fact,
creates in the public mind doubt as to
the sufficiency or reliability of the testi-
mony of the prosecuting witness, thus
raising serious apprehension among the
people that the defendant may be, if ex-
ecuted, unjustly punished.
Herein resides the peculiar character OF
the paper which we have denominated
remarkable. With such apprehension
existing, because of the deliberate ex-
preston of the appellate court-which,
however, under well settled legal prin-
ciples affirmed the judgment of guilt
there must, says the Judge, exist also
serious distrust in the public mind as to
the capacity of courts to administer JUS
tice. That is to say, such distrust tends
to break down that confidence which the
people ought to have in the correctness
and justice of conclusions reached by our
courts. In other words, the case of the
life or death of Freeman. he holds, is, and
ought to be, secondary to the greater
question of maintaining the confidence
of the people in the machinery of the law.
This is the argument of the Judge,
which he is certainly justified in present
ing to the Governor, along with his as
sertion of satisfaction with the judgment
of his court, in view Of the fact that by
the expression of the court above doubt
is raised as to the sufficiency and reliabil-
ity of testimony in the court below, and
without which testimony the defendant
could not have been convicted.
The paper of the Judge of the Superior
Court therefore is one of peculiar char
acter, but one that it appears to us the
Judge very properly files, since without
criticising the appellate tribunal it puts
the lower court right before the Governor
and the public, and gives the defendant
the full benefit of any possible doubt con-
corning his guilt that may exist in the
minds of any of the people.

expressing that neither the Charter. nor
anything in it, shall be taken as continu-
ing the commission; but that on the con-
trary the Acts creating the commission
are declared repealed by the approval of
the Charter by the Legislature.
In the first place it is the opinion of the
bar that the new Charter were it silent
would not work the repeal of the Funded
Debt Commission laws. The Judiciary
Committee of the Freeholders arrived at
the same judgment; all the lawyers of the
city save one concur in thai view of the
matter. In the second place It is ex-
pressly provided by unmistakable ex-
preston that the Charter shall not repeal
the Funded DEBIT Acts; that rather
than have any such effect result, the
Charter shall be subordinate to and be-
meath the feet of the Acts creating the
commission.
Friends of the commission therefore
can vote for its retention; its opponents
can vote for its repeal. This constitutes
fair submission of the whole matter to
the people relegating the question of the
commission to the source of all power in
free government, the electors, and
whose desires ought to be final, and from
whose judgment it ought not to be with
held.
This, then, is all that there is in or
about the new Charter relating to the
Funded Debt Commission. its position
stated clears the way for considering the
Charter DroDer.

JUDGE VAN FLEETS LETTER.

A document has been filed in the Gov

other column, relating to the case of
Charles Freeman, under sentence of death
in this county. The paper is signed by
Hon. w. c. Van Fleet, the Judge of the
Superior Court which tried Freeman.
The document is remarkable one
one that is probably without parallel in
our judicial history. It presents to the
Governor the case of Freeman on the
question of communication of sentence,
because. while the court is satisfied with
the verdict of the jury and the judgment
pronounced, grave doubt is expressed by
the Supreme Court concerning the guilt
of the defendant, because of its view of
the reliability Of the testimony of the

The man held on until he came to the turn in the hill, when he tried to jump and catch the horse by the bits, but was unsuccessful. It ran furiously until just before reaching the Hoyden's Hill school house, when it was overtaken and caught by George Clark, who, by hard driving, came up wirh it.
