Cancer
OF the Breast.

Mr.. A. II. Crausby is one of the best
known and most highly respected citi-
zens of Memphis, and resides at 15S
Kerr street in that city.
Some years ago his wife noticed a
small lump in her breast. She thought
nothing of it. but Ii increased in size
rapidly, and soon broke through the
skin and commenced to discharge.
She was at once put under treatment
of the best physicians, but they cry
soon found that they could do her no
good, and simply prescribed antiseptics
to keep the place clean. Both her
grandmother and aunt, by the way,
had died with cancer, and when APP
prised of this fact the doctors said that
they would not attempt 60 save her;
that she was incurable. Although the
cancer had by this time become deep
seated and her health very low, one Of
the most noted specialists of New York
then treated her. After treating her
awhile, this doctor admitted that the

II arrisburg Notes.

The proposed investigation Of the local
government of Phil'a. was the chief topic
among legislators. Thursday, but, in the
Senate that day Mr.. Kaufman protested
against increasing officers and salaries, but
the bill then under consideration lncreas-
ing the salary of q type writer from $l,OOO
to 81, 200 went through.
The House Committee ON Education re-
ported bill changing the method OF grant
ing certificates to teachers. Instead OF
permitting the teachers Institutes to Sc
1ect the committee. as Is now done, TIE
bill provides that the county superinten-
dent and two teachers, with two Others to
be selected by the State Superintendent,
shall constitute the board of examiners.
Gov. Hastings swung his veto axe, last
Saturday, for the first time, and chopped
the head off the bill giving Washington
20. an additional law judge. In his
veto-message he gives a resume OF
the legal business of that county for 1894,
which is little, if any, larger than that OF
this county.
The bill creating Department of agri-
culture passed the House finally on Thurs
day. Thus far the farmers have every
thing they have asked for in this Leglsla-
turc.
IF the Legislature at Harrisburg, an
Governor Hastings, do not want to dlss!
pate the two hundred and fifty Thousand
majority or thereabouts by which they
were elected they should call decided
halt on the proposed legislation creating
needless officers at large salaries, increas
ing the salt ries of old officers end on reck

of salary never so great as. it is now nelth

A Cheeky Judge.

I'm in Franklin, Judge Taylor OF Nensn-
20 Co., was, according to the gossip OF lhe
town. caught in the act of making an as
sirnation house out of the court house, and
on the 4th of Janusry he entered the Sher-
ia-s office and did assault and beat and at
tempt to shoot one of the deputy sherlffs.
The deputy sheriff informed againsthim'
Judge Taylor waived hearing and gave
hail for court, and the Grand Jury found
true bill against him for assault with IN
tent to kill
The case was postponed by Judge Hen
derson on account of the testimony oi phy-
.icians as to Taylor's ply sicial,unhtnes7 Tor
tial and yet Taylor has been holding
court there right along
One of the Franklin papers of last week
published complete record of the case
and sums up as follows:
On the showing which is made by the
abuve record, number of self evldent
PROPOSITIONS are deducible.
l. 1t Judge Taylor was physically ana
mentally unfit for trial on Jan 81, he was
likewise unfit to sit IN his judicial capacity
on that day.
2 If he is unfortunately liable to attacks
of "spasmodic insanity" ne was ou' Vi
place on the bench this week.
The argument which makes him unit to
undergo trial by reason of mental aud phys-
ical disability and liability to spasmadlc
alteration also takes him from the Judlcldl
bench by reason OF unfltness.
We simply follow the inhexible logic OF
this matter. There is no disposition IN
This community TO persecute Judge Taylnr.
His friends, in making assertions 10 the
contrary, merely call attention to the re-
markable moderation and toleratlon tnae
has been shown toward him. We hope ne
NAV prove himself innocent OF the feiony
that is laid at his door. Hea his frlehus'
however. have ''queered" the case by post
nonine its trial on grounds which, II
valid, establish MS lncapaclty ioi eoi'i00
on the bench.
The real issue cannot be befogged.

of eyading it has injured him and made

at which about thirty members we're pres
ent. was held in the Court House last BAT
urday afternoon and it was voted Dy
large majority to take steps for the i'm

The proceedings began by the report OF

to investigate the record of Judge Taylor.

versive of justice.
A memorial will be presented to the

sits as jury in the case, and If found guilty
the Governor removes him, and appoints
his successor.
