Mr.. PeshalIs Case for Hallinger.
We give in IL news columns today
a full statement of Counsellor Pesh-
alr's theory of the law in respect to
the execution Of the murderer Hallin-
ger. 1t seems to us he has SO strong a
case that even if he applied to the
higher State courts he would procure
a reversal of the Judgment of death.
On grounds of practical justice, this
is to be regretted. If ever a murder
Gus ruffian deserved the halter, Hal
linger is the man; but the law must
be administered as it is written even
upon rufIians like him. 1t, is more
vitality important TO society that the
law should be rigidly interpreted
even than that crime should be pun
ished. ~ . "
We cannot say we have the least
liking for any dilatory methods Mr..
Peshall may employ. If he goes
ahead in good faith, argues his case
and pushes for a decision on the issues
he raises, he is doing a public service.
If his action in this case leads to a re-
adjustment of the law by Congress
and by the State Legislature, he will
have done an eminent service. But if
he merely plays a waiting game to
prevent the possibility of a new trial
of his client; he will get very little
sympathy or support from law abid-
ing people.
BY the way. what does Mr.. Win
field mean by saying that Congress,
by amending existing laws, could
evade the e1-post tacto clause in the
Constitution and pass a statute which
would act retroactively in HalIinger's
case. Why. if that were good law,
Congress, by passing an amendment
to the River and Harbor bill of last
year might legislate to punish Mr..
Peshall for taking up Hallinger's case
at all, or Mr.. Winfield for prosecuting
it.
We rather think Mr.. Winfield is a
little wild in his notions as to wha t
Congress may do in the way of er post
tacto legislation. If he is not, the
Constitution is not worth the ink it
takes to print it.

Archduke Henry's Courtship.

1EcIuuho hChIy .
Baroness Waldeck, the morganatic
wife of the Archduke Henry, who was
recently seized with Inflammation of
the lungs, resulting in high fever and
delirium, died in Vienna Il few days
later. The Archduke Henry, the
youngest son of Archduke Rainier, in
1868, when in command at Graz, fell
in love with Fraulein Leopoldine
Hoffman,, a dark-eyed, handsome
girl, daughter of a magistrate, whose
sweet voice had induced her to be-
come an opera singer.
The relations of the archduke and
the singer were not long a secret, and
the people said that the archduke
would marry his sweetheart n of
these days. He had to go to Italy for
the wal of 1866, and during his alb
sence the court attempted to bride
the young girl into giving up her
archduke. But she declared firmly
that the archduke had promised sol
emuly to marry her, and that though
she should certainly not remind him
of his promise, she would wait until
he thought fit to fulfill it. After the
war he returned to Graz. but as his
relations with Fraulein Hoffman, had
not changed he was sent to Brunn as
general of division.
The young lady was then induced
by her lover to leave the stage and
live a retired life at Bozen, where he
had a palace left to him by his father.
Here he prepared everything for the
reception OF a wife, and in 1868 Frau
lein HoffmaDn and the archduke were
married privately in the chapel OF the
palace. When the emperor learned
the fact the young couple had TO
leave Austria, and stayed for some
years in Switzerland. and it was said
that they would never be permitted
TO return TO Austria.
One day, however, the young wife,
who had given birth to a daughter.
received a patent of nobility from the
emperor, who two years later gave her
the title of Baroness. Since then
members of the Imperial family have
from time to time paid her visits al
Bozen or Castle Waldeck, and a few
years ago she made a passing appear
ance in Vienna society.-London Ddft5

The New Jersey saloon keepers are,

They are nevera content with

such a law passed is to eliminate the

OF these is the multiplication of low

buying Meat for Two.

Almost all young housekeepers lind
it hard to make economical and salts
factory purchases of meat and fish,
writes Maria Parloa in her DEPART
ment in the January LADIES' Home
Journal. They should understand at
the outset that it is impossible to save
in the same proportion as one who
BUYS for a large family. Another
point: it is wiser to get only the parts
and the amount actually wanted than
to buy large pieces simply because
they are cheaper by the pound. A
roast, particularly of beet, can be in
dulged in only on rare occasions, when
the family is small.
Broiling meats is the most expen-
sive of all methods of cooking. but, to
nv mind, the most beautiful. When
a housekeeper really can afford to fol-
low it she should do so. But in time
one tires of even the most delicious
broiled meats and fish. When plan
ming to roast or broil a piece OF meat,
it's adaptability to being made e
into various little dishes should be
considered. Pork is the least desir-
able of the fresh meats for these pur-
poses. For warming over in various
ways the following named meats are
the most misunderstanding, veal,
lamb, mutton and beef. The white
meats are better than the red for this
purpose. This is also true of fish, the
white, dry varieties being much bet
ter for made-over dishes than the
dark, oily kinds. Here is something
that one can buy in a small quantity
and use to advantage:-A short por-
terhouse steak will answer for two
dinners. Cut out the tenderloin, broil
it and serve with a good sauce. If
the weather be cold the remainder of
the steak can be used two days later.
In hot weather it must be cooked for
dinner the following day.

ORGANIZE.

Agood many Of our State exchanges
have been growing lately because the
different State Central Committees
have not paid the advertising bills
they contracted. The papers should
be used to this kind of treatment by
this time, for the Central Committees
have for years past failed to square
their just accounts. They owe every
paper in the State, and the only way
for the newspaper mel TO do is to
form an association. This can be
done zone too soon. We would advise
that it be done next month. In this
way the papers can hold the age and
demand their pay in advance, or no
work will be done. There is never
any doubt about the papers doing the
work that they contract to do.
There is another thing it might be a
good idea to do, and that is to make a
law compelling Central Committee
officers to furnish a bond, and at the
end of each campaign furnish for pub
LEGATION a statement showing the re-
ceipts and disbursements of funds
handled by them.
