The outside as well as the inside press
has given no uncertain Indication OF its
views regarding Judge Blaisdelps action
In presiding at the arraignment OF Lizzie
A. Borden and his announced intention
to preside again next Monday. Every
reasonable effort should be made to pre-
vent such prejudicing Of tie case OF the
government as will result from his pre-
siding next Monday.
The surprising thing in this connection
Is not Judge Blaisdelps determin alton
against popular protest to sit on the pre-
lminary phase OF the case, bnt District
Attorney Knowlton's insistance that be

perceive that this will count very much
against him in his conduct of the case,
however fair he may be in the details OF
the prosecution.

What has been said by hundreds in
suspicion OF his participation in the mur-

marry her and share the spoils Of the

him, and not a word Is heard against him
from those who, like these gentlemen,

And tho whaIers Don't Despise Seals too,
Once In Awhile.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1S-Advices from
Duluth bay Alaska, ON the Behring sea,
say: ''The squadron which is chasing
out the seal poachers is now paying es-
pecial attention to the whaling fleet
Every whaler found in the sea is over
hauled and thoroughly searched.
The reason is that nearly every whaler
has a number OF seal skins aboard. On
July %, the cutter Rush overhauled the
wha!er Lydia In Duchess bay but found
no skins. The Lydia was sc IN to transfer
something during the night to the North
ern Light, another whaler, and next
morning the latter was overhauled as she
was sailing for Frisco.
A cask OF seals skins was found, and
the captain of the Lydia admitting the
transfer, his vessel was seized and he was
taken a prisoner. The British Colum pia
sealer Mountain Chief was seized on
July % by the United States steamer
Adams.
These sealers who went to the Japa n
coast eaaly In the season will doubt less
get warm reception, as it Is learned
that Russia has sent three steel cruisers
to protect her sealing grounds.

ment lasted twelve seconds.

lasted five seconds. Ibis resembled an
explosion.

nation among the inhabitants, many OF

streets without stopping TO dress AND
some tainted. The shocks threw the fur
niture in many houses down with great
violence and houses rocked badly.

homes were not wrecked.
The shock was also felt at Pembroke,
where the people became panic stricken,
and rushed into the streets.

PAwTUCKET, Aug 1S.-Early this morn
ing an Old Colony special freight train from
this city struck man at the slaughter
houses near the Smithfield avenue bridge.

train. Word was at once sent to the po-
lice station at Pawtucket and the ambu-

identity him. Medical Examiner Kelli-
her viewed the remains at the station.

A New and Fancy Leather Discovered-He

the Beauty of Fancy Articles.
NEW YORK, Feb. 29.-[Special 1-James
w. Deckert, Newarker, has discovered
new kind OF fancy leather. 1t is obtained
BY tanning the stomachs of animals, the
same material from which tripe is prepared
Tripe is not tripe until it is prepared Tor
food. What it should be called when con-
sidered as material for leather is an open
question. 1t makes handsome leather for
pocketbooks, bags and fancy articles, and
cah be dyed in any color. Only the inner
membrane is used. The heavy integument is
split of, leaving q moderately thin and
coarse-fbered leather as soft as chamois.
There is a great variety of grain and pat.
tern in the same piece of leather, and much
of it is too plain to admit of using in largo
articles with the best effect, but excellent
results can be obtained by matching opposite
spots of the skin, if skin it can be called
The part known as the honeycomb makes q
particularly rich appearance when dyed and
polished. 1t is much more effective than
alligator or lizard skin, and much softer and
more easily worked into irregular forms.
Another part has the appearance of being
covered with jet beads when dyed black and
polished.
Any part of the material will keep peo-
pie guessing what it is made from, and that
is part of the pleasure of owning any
novelty. The inventor. or discover, of this
new leather says that he can get from IL to
