ALMY'S SENTENCE.


Lawyer DeaVitt Doubts If Any Sane Man
fleads Guilty.
MONTPELIER, April st. j. Deavitt
told FREE PRESS reporter that the muir
der trial OF frank {. Amy in New Hamp-
shire was rejection on the courts OF New
England He doubted if sane man ever
pile AIDED guilty to murder in the first degree
uld judges were cautious in accepting such
pleas Almy pleaded not guilty, reluctant
IL changed it to guilty. The indictment
permitted a verdict in degrees, imposing a
penalty OF either death Imprisonment.
He changed his plea, no doubt, Mr.. Deavitt
said, believing it would, in some way,
make MS chances greater to escape the
dealth penalty. After the court accepted
that plea there remained u question OF life
or death Of Amy to be determined by a
jury of his peers. He could not waive
that constitutional trial. An element al
ways in such trials is the responsibility
of the accused when he committed the hor
rible crime and also when he gave away his
own life b. u plea of guilty. Judge Doe 3
sentence of death on Amy said Mr.. Dea-
witt, was no sentence, as IT was not pro-
nouuced, as required BY law, in court in the
presence of Almy. II the law is not obeyed
by courts their officers become criminals and
murderers in executing their sentences
The law imposes no useless ceremonies that
convenience Ii is in the exact Observance
of law that marks the difference between a
barbarous and civilized community.

BLASTING BY DYNAMITE.
Col Goodyear's Method of CuttinG
Down Brunswick's Bar.

Col Goodyear's Method of Cutting
Down Brunswick's Bar.
ST. SIMoN's ISLAND, GA, Aug. H.
While spending a week at St. Simon's your
correspondent has taken advantage Of the
occasion to investigate the work now being
done to cut a channel through the outer bar
that obstructs the magnificent harbor of
Brunswick. To this end Col. G.. P. Good
year, the originator of the dynamite
method Of desling with ocean bars, was
sought for and the following facts obtained
from him:
There are two bars Ia Brunswick harbor,
the inner aud outer bar. The inner bar lies
in front OF the mouth of Turtle river. The
United States government has taken it in
hand and this work has been very effect
north and south across the ocean
front Of the harbor, and fourteen miles from
the city. 1t has never given any trouble
until late years, there having formerly been
4-foot channel through it. This bar by
government surveys is 2, 400 feet wide, but,
due to dynamite work Of last year, has been
reduced to 723 feet actual measurement,
there being deep water on both sides of it. In
1879 the Sunbeam was wrecked on the south
side Of the channel and this obstruction
caused the bar to begin shoaling at that
point In 1889 the Alphare:ta Campbell
was wrecked on the north side of the channel
and shoaling Immediately set ia there and
progressed so rapidly that the channel was
soon closed to commerce, the double wrecks
shoaling the harbor down to eleven feet
across the bar. Then a new horseshoe
shaped channel formed TO the south Of the
old channel and some distance away from
it, which gave eighteen feet OF water and
this became the commercial cham ell.
Col Goodyear was asked what sug gested
to him the dynamite idea. Necessity" he
replied. Necessity. 1t came about in
this way" he continued. II fell in with
two sea captains at st. Simon's Mills, the
three of US being on our way to Brunswick.
This was in March, 1891. l learned from
these captains that their ships had finished
loading on Feb. 10, and that they could not
get out of the harbor. | realized the dith-

Brunswick was ruined unless the dam across
its harbor was out. That night | called the
council together In executive session and

and that immediately; that we

VISIONS A QUEER THING.

Nothing Ever Appears the Same to ANY

i do not suppose this world looks

dozen OF US wero looking at the moon

the size OF a five-cent piece, to another

to another a fat, circular piece of brass.
noticed this diversity of human vision
once In Galveston, Tex. I saw a man
named ODen shoot fellow gambler
named Quinlan to death. He fred four
shots from large revolver. At the trial
one man testified that Quinlan had q
knife in his hand at the time of the
shooting. Another thoughtft was cane,
while third expressed the opinion that
1t was billiard cue. 1 was standing
facing him when he was shot and would
make oath that his hands were open
and contained nothing. Those who tes-
titled were disinterested spectators and
told on the stand what they honestly
thought they saw. The shooting be-
gan in a saloon. Quinlan ran out, fol-
lowed by O'Dell, who kept shooting.
Some thought one shot was fired in the
saloon, others thought three, yet all
were looking right at the two men. You
often hear people say that what they
see they know; but they don't. They
have no assurance that they saw right.
