+" NOT GUILTY."
The Ending Scene of the Bor-
den triaI-The Defendant.

New BEDFORD. Mass, June d.
1t was just 4 80 o'clock yesterday
when the spectators, who had kept
their seats patiently during the re-
tirement of the jury in the Borden
case noticed a movement indicating
their return. A moment later the
- men filed into their seats and were
polled.
Miss Borden was asked to stand up
and the foreman was asked to return
the verdict, which he announced
''Not guilty"
Then all the dignity and docorum
of the court room vanished A cheer
went up which might have been heard
half a mile away through the open
windows and there was no attempt to
check it. The stately justices looked
straight ahead at the bare walls dur
ing the tremendous excitement. which
lasted fully minute.
Miss Borden's head went down upon
the rail in front of her and tears came
where they had refused to come for
many long day as she heard the
sweetest words ever poured into her
willing ears.
Mr.. Jennings was almost crying
and his voice broke as he put his hand
out to Mr.. Adams. who sat next to
him, and said: Thank God !" while
Mr.. Adams returned the pressure of
the hand and seemed incapable of
speech.
Governor Robinson turned to the
rapidly dissolving jury as they filed
out of their seats and cleaned on them
with fatherly interest in his kindly
eye, and stood up as Mr.. Knowlton
and Mr.. Moody came over to shake
hands with the counsel for the defense.
As soon as possible the room was
cleared, although it was hard task,
since everybody waited to shake
hands with Miss Borden. When the
spectators had finally gone she was
taken to the room Of the justices and
allowed to recover her composure
with only the eyes of friends upon
her and the cares of devoted admir-
ers. AT the expiration of an hour

A Lazy Mans DesIre.

Snaggs was lazy man. He was thor
oughly ana consttutionally lazy. He
never worked when he could avoid it.
and long practice had made him skillful
in avoiding anything that savored of toll.
He looked on breathing as a necessary
evil, only to be tolerated because it kept
him alive. He was too lazy to have an
ambition, but he did cherish desire to
get through life without eXertion on his
part. One day he became ill. He laZily
went to bed and lay there, calmly content
to live or die, as circumstances might
dictate. His wife realized thut he was
very sick. She was worried about his
spiritual welfare.
John" she said, you are very ILL"
Snaggs assented.
"You may die"
"Yes?" asked Snaggs with the faintest
show of interest.
Indeed, you may, and 1 want you to
have minister come and see you"
"a Minister"
''Yes, dear, minister. Don't you
think you need oneY'
Snaggs closed his eyes and did not
answer for few minutes. Then he said:
"a minister who would come around
and talk about the future?"
"Yes, dear"
And tell all about wearing a golden
crown?"
''Yes, dear"
And playing eternally on a golden
harp?"
YES, dear?''
Not much! :" said Snaggs so suddenly
and vehemently that his wife was fright
ened. Neither spoke for ten minutes.
Then Snaggs said wearily: Can't you
find minister who believes that the
harps are OF the Eolian kind? They play
themselves, you know."-Buffalo Ex-
press.

Aldermanic Idea of Art,

A very large question is opened up by
the action of the Aldermen in regulating
tine public advertisements of theaters,
The Listener did not go into that mat
ter at all when it was up, and will not
now.
But if the moral health of. the COM
munity demanded the suppression OF
certain pictorial representations, might it
not also require the removal of exhibi-
tionS for mercantile purposes which are
shocking to the sensibilities of all per-
sons of decent feelings, and calculated to
brutalize the taste of the rising genera
ton?
There has lately been a great increase.
chiefly in the windows of stores. OF
patent medicine advertisements contain
ing hideous and disgusting pictures. One
OF these, in the window OF a Back Bav
apothecary, might well be regarded as
several degrees more indecent than the
Babes in the Wood posers, and it is
certainly much more depraving to the
public sense of what is beautiful.
1t was a patriotic purpose. rather than
an aesthetic one, which led the Greeks to
place beautiful statues where they could
be seen by all the women who came to
the market place. Is there not screw
loose somewhere in the civic patriotism
when suppresses babes in the Woods,
pictures, but allows carved and painted
and printed representations OF deformi-
ties, monstrosities and diseased and suf-
fering human beings to haunt the vision
of nervous women and affect unfavora-
bly,, in more ways than one, the rising
generation?
Perhaps it isn't right for the city or
State to set up a censorship over adver-
tising pictures publicly displayed: but.
bless you, the thing has just been done!
And what Alderman will volunteer to
draw TO nicely the line where the ugly
leaves Off and the immoral begins?-Bos-

tons as to the benefits which the inven-
ton of machinery conters upon mankind.
The patent law, he says, does not exist
for the benefit of the inventors, but for
the benefit of the public, the exclusive
right given to inventors under it being
for the purpose promoting the progress
of science and the useful arts. He adds
that in many cases the larger benefits of
this class Of inventions flow to the class
of people who seem TO have the least con-
necJion with the industries affected.
Without the cotton gin the marvellous de-
velopment of the South could never have
taken place, and without the improve
ments in agriculture and transportation
the wonderful growth of the West would
be thing unknown. Labor-SaVing ma
chinery, he adds, does not reduce the en-
ploymenJ of the class of people whose
work it is devised to perform. No greater
labor-saving device than the sewing ma
chine was ever invented, yet when sew
ing machines came into use there was one
tailor to every 442 inhabitants, and alter
they had been in use twenty years there
was one tailor to every 35S inhabitants, to
say nothing of the measureless saving Of
labor in families by this invention.

The strangers sheaf.

An old custom still prevails in the
western part of France during the har-
vast season. On the edge of field bor-
dering the highway a sheaf Of grain is
left standing, to which all the peasants OF
the village contribute and which is called
''the strangers sheaf," as it is the'prop-
erty of the first tramp or other homeless
wayfarer who may carry it away and
profit by its price.

Is Captured after Being Four
Years an Escape.
About ten days ago Warden Bell
got word that Milton Sharp, who es-
capped from the Nevada State Prison
August 10, 1889, was in the vicinity
of Red Bluff. He forwarded a de-
scription of Sharp to Sheriff Bogard
and on the 2Sth he was captured.
He was in a shoe shop when sur>
prised and when the handouts were
being placed upon his wrists he asked
the Sheriff to go with him to his
wagon, which was at the street cor
ner. He was secured, and when
the wagon was visited the officers
found two loaded pistols in the bed,
one Remington 44-navy, the other
Smith & Wesson double-acting
hammerless revolver. In roll of
well-worn blankets was a buckskin
purse containing $3.50 in twenty
dollar pieces. He was taken to jail
and questioned, when he admitted
that he was the man wanted.
He arrived in Red Bluff from Hay
Fork, Trinity county, with settler,
and during the fonr days he was
coming he slept with bis two revol-
vers by his side. He Was wrUtchcdly
dressed, wearing a heavy duck coat,
in the pockets of which were some
cartridges for the big revolver, a
black, SLOUGH hat and a cheap vest
and pair of pants, with shoes wei
worn.
He says l.o i.,,5 "a wa. XII" for

Sharp was the man who robbed
the Aurora stage in 1879 and shot
Tovey the messenger. He was sen
fenced for 20 years and escaped when
he was trusty in the garden.
He has engaged lawyers in Red
Bluff and is fighting fer a writ of
habeas corpus. Warden Bell leaves
with a requisition tonight.
