ChilioH Times.
John James Mage, quiet ':ddle-
aged man, has had career as roman
tic as that of Monte Christie. Mage is
now a Guatemalan millionaire, who
lives nine months of the year in Paris.
Twenty wears ago he was a poor En-
gIish collector OF insects in Guatemala,
and also acted as the British vice-cOn-
sui at San Jose.
One day Commandante Gonzalez or
dered Mage to appear before him.
Nago sent word that he would come in
a short time. This incensed the COM
mandante, and he sent file of soldiers
after Mago, and, when the insect col
lector appeared, ordered seventyfive
lashes to be laid upon his bare back.
This was done very thoroughly, and
when it was finished, Gonzalez shouted :
Give him twenty-five more for
luck"
When Mage recovered, which was
only after careful nursing, as his back
was badly cut up, he made formal com
plant to the British Government. The
result was that Guatemala was ordered
to punish Gonzalez, and to pay Mage
$500 (E1OO) for every lash he had re-
ceived. In default of this English
cruisers would shell San Jose and other
coast cities.
Guatemala readily punished Coma
lez. but TIED hard to evade paying
$4,000 to Mage. The British, how
ever, we're memorable, and the poor col
lector was made a comparatively rich
man in one day. AS he had more cOiI
than any one IN the country at tina
time, President Barrios went into part
nership with him.
Mage became one of the largest cot
fee planters, and also secured the con
tract for building docks In the ports
No one can land or leave one OF these
docks without paying toll to Mage
while he also levies tax on all freigh
He also owns valuable mines and tract
of timber His fortune is estimated a
t1,OOO,COO, ali due to one hundred
lashes on his back.

|DOESIT CONFLICT?
JUDGE M,LENNAN's DECISION.
Judge Herrick Does Not Yet See the Point
In the Little Falls Case.

Little Falls. July ia. M. Mills and
City Attorney Decoster received the
opinion Of Judge McLennan. OF the Su-
preme Court, In the Little Falls police
case this morning. The Judge holds
that the Lathe Falls city charter does
not contemplate that police officer ap-
pointees shall be selected BY competi-
tive examination and that the Legisla-
turs In passing the charter bill In this
form made section o. article s. Of the
State Constttutiou. imperative In re-
specs to this particular case. He there
fore orders that the injunction shall be
vacated.
This opinion ID exactly opposite TO
what was expected here. and seems to
conflict In every respect with the opin-
ion Of Judge Hsrrick, Of Albany. in the
Aldrige case. The action Of the Police
and Fire Board being now sustained.
the new force will succeed the old one.
McEvoy ana O'conor, attorneys for
the old force. have not determined what
their future action VIII be.
Judge D. Cady Herriok after carefully
reading the above dispatch said: II do
not see how can express an opinion on
this as 1t does not contain any point.
The tenor Of the article would imply
that the case, however decided, rested
ON the terms Of the Little Falls charter,
concerning which am not informed"
Recorder Albert Hessberg said: 1T Is
blind. very blind. The first half Of
the article as read II, Is In consonance
with Judge Herrick's opinion. and hence
the concluding paragraph. which Is a
detached comment. must be mistake,
OF else the last is right and the first
mixed. Nothing is given Of the opinion
Of Judge McLennan upon which a sem
sible interview could be based. I can
certainly say nothing on IT,"
Neil Gilmour. ex-Superintendent OF
the State Department of Public Instruc-
ton. said: II know Judge McLennan
to be good Judge. have not read
Judge Herrick's civil service opinion,
and OF course can say nothing about
this"
Ex-Mayor John Boyd Thacher said:
Il can say nothing about this case at
Little Falls. I agree with Judge Her
rick In his civil service decision, but
not with one Of the reasons given IN his
opinion where he refers to debates and
explanations given in the Constitution
al Convention. do not think the Con-
stitution, the States organic law, should
be thus construed. or that any atten-
ton should be given to what may have
been said about It,"

think they have any idea that they
have the right to sell or transfer these
leases. Every lessor Is entitled to and
will have his lease cancelled and the
only way the Reorganization Commit
tee can expect to get around the matter
s to buy the ground, which they are I'M
