A JUDGE in HOT WATER.
He Was Lenient With Party of Poker
Players With Pull.

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 11.-Judge A. E. Cal
boun of the police court is in hot water
on account of his failure to treat the tony
poker players known as the Georgia Club
as ordinary offenders are treated. He is
openly accused by Solicitor Thomas of
the city court of failing to do the duty
required of him by law in prosecuting
these gentlemen.
Several weeks ago some thirty or forty
well-known citizens, city officials and
others having money and political pull
behind them were bounced upon by the
police for gaming. The gentlemen had
fitted up snug quarters in the old capitol
building for the enjoyment of the festive
jackpot, and called themselves the
TGeorgia Club" A tremendous kick fol-
lowed the action Of the police, who soon
realized that they had Numbered. The
game they had tackled was too big.
sMooTHED MATTERS OVER.
To smooth matters over the aristo-
cratic defendants were allowed to forfeit
collateral of $25 and costs each, without
appearing in court like the common herd.
This method is squarely against the past
practice of the court, but
the court could not resist the
pull" In addition to the setting aside
precedent 10 please The arlstocrat1c gam
6lers, it now appears that the recorder
rendered himself liable to a more serious
charge. 1t is against the state law to
gamble, and when police officers make
raids they are always required to see
that the cases are brought before the
state court. But in the case of the Geor-
gia Club, this was not done, and Solicitor
Thomas has raised loud kick to know
the reason why. He would receive a snug
sum in costs out of the cases and as it
is a matter of dollars and cents there
is likely to be a mighty shaking up
hoard

AITGEID'> ~nKEAGuERY,

Gov. .Altgcld of Illinois ~tacitly admit
his bias in favor of the anarchists VIII,
he has pardoned. by the unusual though
not uncalled for special pleading that h,
does for them in his official promulga
ton Of the pardon and behind which h,
attempts to shield himself from the rep
rotation Of the people for this act Of
freachery to them and to the cause OF
good government. In order to make an
excuse for turning Fieldcn. Schwab and
Neebe loose again, he finds and ~ofiiciall,
asserts:
First That the jury that tried the
ease was a packed jury selected to con
Wet.
Second-That according to the law.
AS land down by the supreme court. both
prior TO and again since the trial OF this
case. the jurors. according to their own
answers. were not competent jurors. and
the trial was therefore not a legal one.
Third That til" defendants were not
proven guilty Of the crime charged in
the indictment.
Fourth That as to the defendant Nee
be. the states attorney had declared at
the close of II c evidence that there was
no case against him. and yet he has
been kept in prison all these years.
Fifth Tint the trial judge was
either So pr ludiced against the defen-
dants or els SO determined to win the
applause Of a certain class in the com
munity that he could not and did not
grant a falr trial.
In these findings Coy. Altgeld becomes
a law and an authority INTO himself and
airily brushes aside IA verdict reached
after one Of the most notable legal con
tests the history ~ his state records.
But more questionable than his assump-
fion of legal superiority Is his official de
nunciation Of Judge Gary who tried the
eases n whose rulings we're fought in
the supreme court Of the state with the
desperation of a fprlorn hope. and by
that high tribunal affirmed. The sequel
proves too c~learl, that the pardons had
to come. and conditions had to be altered
To til the case. and they have been. but |
in such a clumsy and forced manner
that the purpose is plainly evident. Per
%sonalls as the act of pardon relates to
Schwab. Fielden and Neebe. no one per
haps cares whether they are IN or out Of
prison. II reports be true. they heve re-
cei,ed "A lesson that will keep them away
from the red flag in future and that has
Imbued them with Il proper respect for
the law Of the land. but the moral effect
on the hordes Of rampar anarchists who
never lose an opportunity to celebrate
eleventh of November. 1857 as a day
Of martyrdom. is lost by Coy. Altgeld's
treachery. and the seed Of trouble for
Chicago is planted again.

ED PRosPKcToR: - The Bisbee school has lately come into possession of the finest cabinet collection in the : territory.
 That indefatigable worker, Prof. Varnum has toiled in season and out of season to secure just library, then a set of suitable shelves and cases. and lately the cabinet collection re- ceived a beautiful addition m the shape of new lot of specimens from professional collector at West Med- ford, Mass. Only professional conld appreciate all the points of excellence.
 Some of the minerals. such as the rose quartz, are very beautiful, while garnet embedded in tourmaline is in. teresting indeed. A partial list in GU les:
 s mounted Bird (among them are the great white Egret and the razor billed Aux.
 10 specimens coral. l curious Porcupine Fish.

 Would it not be we'll, MT. Editor, if every considerable town in the terri tory were possessed of such a collec- tion? True, every town is not as pub lie spirited as Bisbee and Tombstone. but with energetic work the thing could be done.
 Specimens of our mines could doubt less readily be exchanged for curios from distance and finally some day we should run upon real enthusiast as the Bisbee folks did with the West Mediord collector and we can fill our shelves.
 The educative power of such a col lection as Blsbee now has is immense.
