DEFINING, THE MURDERER.
He l. Unidentified by Over fifty Persors
Who Know Him.

He I, Unidentified by Over Fifty Persons
who Know Him.
MELBOURNE, April 30 place the
question Of Deeming's identification be.
yond all doubt he was today placed in
the court yard of the Jail with twenty
other persons. Here he was seen and
identified by tifty-two persons who had
known him under fifteen aliases. 1t il
quite evident Deeming believes the game
has ended for him, and close watch is
kept upon him to prevent him from kill.
ing himself, as it is believed he would do
if he had the least chance.
Later details regarding Deeming show
that when he was taken into custody at
Southern Cross old-tields, where he
was employed as engineer at the Frazer
gold mine. he was making final arrange
mcnts for his marriage with Miss Rouns-
vile. Who was on her way from Bath
urst. y. $. W., to join him. He had al
ready secured a house and his first act
after taking possession was to purchase
"A barrel of cement. with which he had
the floor of the main room cemented.
The circumstances of his arrest were
of a dramatic character. He was in the
act of reading a newspaper containing a
brief account of the discovery of Miss
Matthews body at Windsor when a con-
stable suddenly entered and without the
least warning arrested him on the charge
of murder For a moment Deeming was
~dumbfounded, but he quickly recovered
his self possession and, pointing to the
paragraph, asked the constable if that
vas the crime of which he was accused,
adding: Il think | know the party who
was murdered. She was a good little
thing and ] cannOt believe that anyone
would hurt her" The policeman him
self was totally ignorant of the details of
the crime. having merely been instructed
in a general way to arrest Deeming on
the charge of murder. The latter. how
over. in the course of conversation after
his arrest. acquainted him with many
particulars of the crime with which it
was thought he was fully conversant.
Another discovery which constitutes
an important clue has been made. 1t
seems that Deeming during his voyage
had in his possession a gutta pcrcha air
mattress. in the center of which there
was a dark stain like blood. The mat
tress was sold after his arrival at Perth
and all attempts to trace it have so far
been unsuccessful Holt. d matr mo iial
agent. identified the prisoner as Il e man
who had applied under the nan of
Duncan for a wife. Duncan taid he
was about t~o:leave Melbourne foi a good
appointment and he promised t. call
again but he never returned. During
the interval of adjournment of the in
quest Dceming partook of a hearty meal
and kept up a cheerful conversation.
The fifth witness deposed he met the
prisoner in Sydney after the date of the
murder of Miss Matthews and as he had
met them both in Melbourne he asked
concerning the prisoners wife. The
prisoner replied, 'She is all right, here in

MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS.
The supreme Court Says They Are
Obligatory.

The supreme Court Says They Are
Obligatory.
HELENA. April Ga decision in
the case of DIR. James Craig against the
state board of medical examiners was
handed down by the supreme court
yesterday. This is on one Of the many
questions that are constantly arising as
to the right of the board to require phy.
s~icians to stand examination before prac.
ticing their profession in this state.
The point involved in the Craig case was
whether a physician, coming from an
other state, with a regular certificate
from a legitimate school of medicine,
must submit to examination before re.
ceiving a certificate to practice. Judge
Buck, in the district court for this coun-
ty, held that examination by the board
was necessary. The supreme court af-
firms his decision.
Within the past two years there have
been several suits, the object of which
was to evade the state laws regulating
the practice Of medicine. The average
layman. fully approaching the necessity
OF such regulations, will find little to
critlcise IN the laws of Montana. All
physicians having diplomas who come
to this state to practice medicine are re-
CURED to pass an examination, which by
no means abstruse, is sufficiently rigid
to determine whether the applicant is
equipped for his duties. The applicant
who hesitates in taking this examination
is not a safe man to take a human life
in charge. The law was designed to
protect the public against self educated
quacks and ignorant empires. and it is
gratifying to learn that the supreme
court finds it will hold.

Certain baking powder makers are publishing flshed cxtracts from the

Newport Elects a Democratic Ticket.

NEWPORT, II. L., April 6. The state
election in this city has been a hot fight
and indications point to the election of "a
full democratic Legislative ticket. One
ward is yet to be heard from. which will
probably not change the result. The
vote polled has been very large and the
ward rooms have been centers of excite
ment all day. This eliminated in the
Fifth ward, where the republicans claim

senator Aldrich Will he Returned to
the United States
Senate.

Providence. Il. l., April g. At 12:4t
this morning the returns from all over
the state were not in, owing to the tedi.
u count necessary under the A.ustral.
ian system. The returns at hand are
sufficient, however, to indicate that there
is no e~lection. for state officers with the
probability of a republican plurality.
The state requires a majority vote to
elect.
There are a sufficient number of re-
publicans returned up to this hour to
secure the election of Senator Aldrich to
the United States senate and a choice of
the republican candidates for ftate otfi-
! GERS.
Newport probably elects but one rep
resentative and it will require another
election to determine the choice for the
other four. 1t requires 81 members of
the legislature for election on a Joint
ballot and the republicans have at pres
ent 81 with every probability of having
elected six more.
TIE city of Providence went demo-
cratic by about 400 majority, but the
city assembly is in doubt.
Pawtucket was carried by the demo-
Gratis by about 100 majority and Woon-
socket by a little less. The democratic
assembly ticket in Woonsocket is elected
by 30. but the Pawtucket assembly
ticket is in doubt.
The vote polled was the largest in the
history of the state. The result is a sur
prise to everybody and shows that there
are several thousand people in the state
whom the party managers can never
locate.
The town Of Lincoln elected six re
publican assemblymen. giving them the
control. The republican state ticket
will be chosen by the legislature and
Nelson w. Aldrich will be returned to
the senate. The democrats made legis-
lative gains in several towns but the re-
suit is a surprise to them. Ordinary
stay-at-home voters came out and over
came the heavy democratic registration.

Proving the Earth's Shane.

1t was not until 1869 that Picard,
under the auspices of the French Acad-
envy of Sciences, reduced the degree to
anything like certainty. His plan
was to connect two points by series
of triangles, thus ascertaining the
length of the arc of a meridian inter-
cepted between them, to compare it
with the difference of ATTITUDES found
by making celestial observations. The
stations used were Melvoisine, in the
vicinity of Paris, and Sourdon, near
Amiens, While these measurements
were being made discussion arose as
to the Interpretation of them, some af-
tirlning that they indicated a probate,
others an oblate spheroid.
The former figure may be popularity
represented by a lemon, the latter by
an orange. To prove which was right
Picard's observations were extended far
to the north and south, one expedition
going to Peru, the other to Lapland.
The Peruvian expedition worked nine
years on the question, the Lapland
about five. The results of the meas
ures thus obtained confirmed the theo-
retical expectations of the oblate form.

There is wide difference between

There is no such craze for patent medi-

ing like the American inclination for
every man to be his own doctor. An
English druggist sells face powder, CO.

and the like, but his main business is
putting up prescriptions. He has no
clientele of men who drop in for lit
tie aromatic spirits of ammonia after a
night of dissipation, or for acid phos-
phate after too much smoking, or for
tlncture of iron and so many grains of
qulnine, or a glass of Calisaya for a
tome, or teaspoonful of bicarbonate
of soda to offset too hearty meal All
that which SO enriches our druggists
is unknown in England. Julian Ralpb
