says that the fund for the founding Of
homes for the poor OF that city now
amounts TO $4,000. and that the ave-
rGg &c number provided for In the homes

matter: At a very critical period Of the
late civil war 81 friend came To the re-
lief of our government whose name mas
never yer been given TO the public. The
case was this: certain powerful vessels
were being hunt IN England for the
Southern Confcderacy. and were in
tended TO prey on our commerce and a.
tempt to break the blockade Of the
southern porte. Mr. Adams. our Minister
10 that countrE asked that they be

be impossible. and believed his case was
lost. But just q this iuncture a friend
visited him. and told him that he would
take pleasure In making the deposit for

his name should not be- e0tiOned. This
found the money was at hand. and that

earlier in the week, and which led TO con-
siderable selling OF stock for botn az

While no effort was made 10 depress the
market for sterling exchange. only the
actual requirements OF shippers were sup
piled.
London. for the first time In several
days, took a more hopeful view, and
bought a little stock. Another factor IN
favor Of the bulls was the annual report
of the Jersey Central, the showing prov
ing more favorable than had been ex-
pected. still the company shows II deficit
of $6i2, 1O3. against u surplus in 1898 OF
$56i6iS. The earnings for the year were
at the rate Of ASS per cent, but per
cent. was paid. In 1893 the receipts were
equal 20 972 per cent. For January the
Wabash and the Louisville and Nashville
made rather favorable reports. The Bur
lIngton exhibit WAS poor. dehcit OF

REGULCS.

The sickle-like constellation Leo. with
the first-magnitude star Regulus and the
bright secOnd-magnitUde star Denebola,
is climbing up the eastern sky, and be-
tween 1t and Gemini we see the zodiacal
constellation Cancer. which, though dest;-
tute of any bright stars. contains the re-
markable cluster Of Praesepe visible even
TO the naked eye Below Regulus a red
dish star, Cor Hydrae. makes the head
OF the large constellation Hydra, which
occupies large space In the heavens,
but Is not otherwise remarkable. Draw
ing a lee from the tall Of ursa Major TO
penebola, II will pass through two con-
stellations, Canes Nena;ici or the Hunt
ing Dogs. and Coma Berenices. or Bere-
nices Hair. The name OF the former is
rather of modern origin. The stars which
form Il are so small and widelyscattered
that 1t scarcely engages our attention.
The only star In IL which is sufficiently
large to catch the eye Is Cor Carroll, so
named in memory OF the unhappy Charles
Stuart, OF England. Coma Berenices Is
a remarkable cluster. which. however. can
be truly appreciated only by means OF
telescope, since its principal stars are
only OF the fourth and fifth magnitude.
1t suggests a fiimy veil or floating wIsp
OF hair.

TO DEFEAT JUSTICE.
Extraordinary Proceedings In Missouri
murIcr Case.

Judge CAN'T of the supreme court OF
Missouri has issued Il writ Of prohibi-
ton to restrain Judge Wear Of the But
Ter county circuit court and Special
Judge q. y. Standard from interfering
with the case against Charles T. Wear.
This is most remarkable case. Charles
u. Wear is the son Of Judge Wear. In
1891 he shot and killed Charles Lail at
Poplar Bluff and was indicted for n,ur-
der III the first degree. The usual DELAYS
afforded by tho criminal laws were re-
sorted 20. At last, after many continu-
aaces. the case was dismissed hy Special
Judge Maiden few months ago.
Last February the Butler county grand
jury rcindic,ed Wear, and then followed
II procedure on the part Of the Young
man $ father as judge of the circuit court
unprecedented in the history Of Mis-
Fouri criminal Jurisprudence Tho term
of conrt was not adjourned until Nav /.
and no capias was issued for Young
Wears arrest, although indicted for
murder III the first degree. Under tho
statutes the circuit clerk cannot issue n
capias on his own motion during court
time.
On April Judge Wear issued an or
der OF record. calling in judge II. ".
Rlicy TO try the case On the lth judge
Riley was present To take NJ the case.
but Judge Wear would not vacate the
bench. Assistant Attorney Gcnoral Nor
ton Jourdan was also present on dircc-
ton OF Governor Stone to aid in tho
prosecution.
Judge Wear pnt III most Of the time
until 4 o'clock reading newspapers, ut
which time Judge Riley notified him of
his presence and readiness TO take up
the case Judge Wear replied that he
would run his own court to suit himself
and ordered the sheriff to adjoum court
MIR. ,Jourdm protested and scored judge
Wear severely for his Unprecedented and
unwarranted action. The sheriff, how
ever, adjourned court.
Judge Wonr has appointed CT. a.
Standard special judge to try the case.
and tho attorney general decided to in
