BEHRING SEA LAW.
Flaw Discovered in the Act Passed by
Congress-.

Flaw Discovered in the Act Passed by
Congress.
WASHINGTON, April 20.-Officials of
the Navy Department have discovered a
flaw in the Behring Sea law recently
passed by Congress. The Paris tribunal
prohibited the capture of seals at all times
within zone of sixty miles around the
Pribyloff Islands, ''inclusive of the ter
ritorial waters" The Act of Congress
describes the same zone as exclusive of
territorial waters.' Although the error
may not prove of great Importance, no
one at this time can state positively what
its future effects may be. In any event it
cannot be foreseen that it will vitiate any
part of the regulations promulgated for
the Behring Sea fleet, although doubt
may be raised regarding the legality of
the permanently closed zone around the
PribylOtf Islands.

Obituary..

Died In East Corinth, Vt, Saturday, Apr. H.
1894, Roswell Carleton JENNIE, M. D., in the 5Oth
field, N. H., June 9, 1874, his parents being Still
man, and Miranda j. (King) JENNIE, late Of New
bury, vt. At the age of II years he responded to
the call of his country for forces to quell the
Southern rebellion, enlisting Oct 9, 1851, in the
9th regiment of VT Volunteers, going to the front
the 10th of the same month. He was discharged
for disability Oct "A, 1852. enlisting Sept. 10,
1868, he went into the service and was wounded
and taken prisoner Sept. 80, 1864, being paroled
the following month. In front of Petersburg,
Apr. 2. 1885, he was severely wounded, sustain
ing injuries which made him cripple during the
remainder of his life. He was discharged Oct 10,
1865 But the hardships of war seemed only to
develop the energies OF the man and awaken pur-
poses that found their appointed mission later in
life. Choosing the medical profession he read
with DR.. A. A. Doty, of Bradford, VT, and took
the full course at Dartmouth Medical School
He was also a graduate OF the Massachusetts
Pharmaceutical Association. His practice as
physician was begun in Topsham, VT, in 1869, re-
turning to East Corinth III Apr 1870, the success
sor of DR.. ii. B. Flanders. For 'lo years DR..
JENNIE found here a growing and useful practice,
a wide circle of warni-hearted friends, and not
few opportunities to exhibit those traits of the
practitioners character which endear him es-
pecially to the needy and suffering. Of retiring
and benevolent disposition, he won the esteem
and confidence OF the people and never failed to
grow in the estimation of those who knew him
best. In business relations he was trusted and
honored In lsS4-5. he represented Corinth in
the state legislature. lie was a member of the
Pension Examining Board during a term of
years. In early life he united with the NJ. +.
Church of Newbury, Vt. He gave up the practice
ofmedicne in loss removing to Lowell, Mass,
where he purchased fine residence expecting to
spend there his declining days. lie was married
Jan. 10, 1870, to Lestind f. George, daughter of
Roswell f. and Avaffssa George. Mrs JENNIE is
alady highly esteemed for her many eXceencies
OF mind and heart, and has the sympathy of all
who know her in this time of sickness and af
Fiction. The deceased and his wife were
spending the winter here with their parents
when, without warning, the messenger came
and went, only allowing the spirit to breathe
its last farewell as the Shades of night were re-
firing at the dawn of day.
And now above the dews of night
The rising star appears;
So faith springs in the heart of those
Whose eyes are bathed in tears.

farms in this town, in succession, ana
also made himself useful by his skill in
many other occupations. For several
seasons he followed a trade now al
most entirely gone out of use-that of
wall builder, and probably laid sever
al miles of stone wall in this and other
towns. Mr.. Corliss was a most kind
and obliging neighbor, of a social dis
position and possessed quaint and
original humor, which those who knew
him will always remember. He re-
moved to Piermont about thirteen
years ago, and had been in feeble
health for some time before his death
which came suddenly, the immediate
cause being apoplexy.

has done the Senate, we cant have
prosperity. He told how Outrage
Gus, villainous and infamous those
Wall street scoundrels are. I" The
reason that the South and West had
not yet come together was that
Western people hate the South be-
cause we killed some of their kin
folks in the war. He had talked to
some of them when he was in the
West recently and he found they
were as red hot Democrats as he
ever saw. Gen. Butler did not
criticise Cleveland because Cleveland
had given him Federal patronage in
this State to beat him (Tillman) for
the Senate. Said he:
81 call him grand old rascal.
He sold out to Wall street either
before or after his election and does
whatever they order him to do. He
is the most damnable traitor that
ever filed that Office" He said
there was no "chaos' during the
Darlington troubles, and as long as
he was Governor there would be
none, except among those old poll
ticians who felt the teat slipping
away from their mouths and that they
were not going to get any more milk.
The Governor said that when he got
over to Aiken county, if Gen. Butler
would produce the man who said he
(Tillman) was not at the Hamburg
riot when the shooting began, he
would produce fifty men who would
swear he was liar He was not
ashamed of having been at Hamburg,
though Gen. Butler did get ashamed
and denied he had been there when
he was trying to get a seat in the
Senate.'
