Law and Chivalry.
Aslanfa C,nSt1futlou.

| Law and Chtvalry.
Atlanta Constitutioa.
| Mirabeau Lamar Towns, the
Georgia poet-lawyer, who is now
such . picturesque figure in Brook
lin court circles. came to the front,
the other day, with a plea for chiv-
airy in the law.
It seems that Miss Estelle Kos
ter fell down in the Brooklyn Turk
ish bathrooms and was injured.
She sued for $4,000 damages.
The defendants claimed that Miss
Roster was injured while she was
playing tag in Turkish bath attire,
and they demanded the privilege of
examining her person in order to
establish the truth or falsity of her
story.
Mfr. Towns strongly Opposes: this
course and fled the following re-
markable protest:
1t is manifest that pure and modest fe.
male would be greatly embarrassed and
shocked if she should be compelled to sub
NIT to the manipulations and the hired gaze
of corporation expert, retained for that
purpose.
The inviolability of her person would be
rs much invaded by compelling her to strip,
as If the court should order the defendant to
administer the cat-o'-nine-tails to her back.
To compel a woman to lay bare her chaste
and sacred body and submit it to the torch
of paid expert without lawful authority is
an iudignity, an insult, an outrage SO glar-
ing that it would readily occur to any one
who had combined the study of Blackstone,
Kent, the Revised Statutes of the Code of
Civil Procedure with the precepts of the
golden rule, the letters Lord of Chesterfield
and the rules of politeness.
The law in its precepts and administration
actions, but responds to the simple rules of
politeness more readily than to the rigid
edicts of stare decisis.
When the learned judge was con-
tronted with this striking tumble of
law, chivalry, etiqutte, morals, sense
and sentim ent, he at one retired in
to what might be called a judicial
fog, informing Mr.. Towns that he
would see him later, or in other
words stating that he would reserve
his decision.
The gallant Georgian's manage
ment of the case has made him very
popular with the women, and it
goes without saying that they will
do what they can to throw business
into his hands.

THE TARIFF AND THE COMING
SESSION OF CONGRESS.

kNzl01<lpH10 N<<O/H lem. J.: MI.
Bayard thinks that Congress at the
short session should pass the bills
for free raw materials and give the
people two years. opportunity of OBJ
serving the working of revenue re-
form before they shall again be re-
quired to elect a President and Con
gress. Mr.. Bayard is right. The
bills to put iron ore and coal on the
free list should be passed, and the
manifest errors and omissions of the
Wilson bill corrected. If the
Democratic party should be able to
60 to the country in 1896 with the
policy of free raw materials well es-
tablished, and rid of the income tax
incubus, there is no reason to dou BIT
that it would command the same re-
sponsive approval on the part of the
people that it obtained in 1890 and
1899.
Chicago Herald (Dem.): Am
bassador Bayard's opinion is I'M
doubtedly sound. His advice to
pass the free materials bill imme-
diately is wise. This ought to be
done not in any resentful spirit, but
because it is right to do it, and be-
cause the country should have a
fair chance to observe the practical
workings of Democratic tariff be-
fore the passy judgment on it in 1896.
Ballimore Sun (Dem.): Elected
in November, 1899 upon the same
platform with Grover Cleveland,
the present Congress still owes to
the American people the faithful
and loyal fulfillment of every pledge
upon the faith of which a majority
of its members were elected.
Pcfe,sd~x:g (Ta.) Inder-Afbeal
(Dem.): We d. not think there is
any general demand for free iron
ore and coal, and we do not believe
that if the free list were extended so
as to embrace them that the, condi-
ton of the Democratic party would
in any respect be improved. The
result in West Virginia. a mining
State, is conclusive evidence to us
that such a proposition would bring
about defeat in that State in 1896 as
crushing and as inevitable as last
disaster.
NesO Yosk Times (Dem.): The
suggestion of Ambassador Bayard is
logical enough. 1t is, of course,
desirable that ssthe country shall be
able to contemplate the Demo cratic
side of the tariff in full working or
der for two years before another
National election rolls around"

4 New Enterprise.

The Kelly Scott Insulating COM
pany are converting the old Lanyon
foundry and machine shop into a
plant for the manufacture of in.
sulating goods, including coverings for
steam boilers, steam pipes, hot and
cold water pipes, refrigerator car
lining, etc. The materials used are
asbestos, mineral wool and pulp. On
the east of the foundry building n dry
room, l4X40 feet, has been erected,
and it is expected that the machinery
of the plant will be put in operation
in a short time. The members Of the
company are experienced in the manu-.
facture of insulating goods, and If push
and enterprise will make the under
tsking success, they are sure to win.
1t isto be hoped that the business
will prove profitable, and that it will
50 Increase as to give employment to a
number of hands.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN
For the week ending Tuesday, August
u, 1894,

F"I lhe Weeh enulnS TUESDAY, August
y, 1894.
No decided change in the weather is
to be noted. Hot days and cool
nights, general deficiency Of rainfall
and sunshine above the average, are
the conditions reported from all
sections.
The east, central and southeastern
counties received some rain, but in
most cases the rain areas were small
and not sufficient to break the drouth,
though vegetation has revived slightly
in some localities where the rainfall
was the heaviest.
Pastures are generally dead and
fall feed is SO poor that many farmers
are driven to the necessity of cutting
up corn for fodder.
Corn is making slow progress, but,
on low ground grood crop
will be secured, even without rain, and
some fields in the southern portion of
the state are looking very we'll
Potatoes are turning out light, being
small in size and very few in n hill,
though about half an average crop
will probably be secured.
Cranberries are about II failure and
many marshesh ave been destroyed by
fire.
Forest and marsh fires continue
with increased severity owing to the
entire absence OF rain in that portion
of the state,
Farm work, except thrashing, is ut n
stand still over large portion of the
state, the ground being too dry for
plowing.
Thrashers report good yield of
small grain in all sections. Wheat
and barley are exceptionally good in
color and quality.
The correspondent at Vernon,
Waukesha Co., writes wheat averages
Is to 20 bushels per acre. Rye about
the same, and of good quality.
Barley 20 to IS, and oats 30 to 80 with
the berry light"
Tobacco is doing well considering
the dry weather.
Fruit Is plentiful, especially grapes
and apples.
