WIFE SENTENCES HUSBAND.
"Thirty Days in Jail" She Said When th'
Judge Turned the Case Over to Her.

The novelty Of wife being called to pro-
nounce sentence upon her husband added
zest, a few days ago, to the proceedings in
the Police Court at Richmond, Va. John
Trexler had time and time again been fined
for drunkenness, and his wife invariably paid
the fines. This day he was up again on the
customary charge, with the added offanse OF
wifebeating.
Justice Crutchaeld, whose unique methods
OF dispensing justice are we'll known, turned
an unwilling ear to the chronic culprit and
called upon the wife to decide the penalty.
Mrs. Trexler calmly scanned her derelict
husband, and sternly said:
Thirty days In jail"
Trexler pathetically pleaded for forgive
ness, alleging penitent spirit and yearn-
ing to reform, but the oft-abused and now
triumphant wife was ine1orable, and the
Court ordered that the sentence should take
effect at once

Fourteen jurors were impanelled to try
Theodore Durrant, at San Francisco. Cal.,

ity for impanelling fourteen jurymen comes
from an act passed by the Legislature at
its last session providing for alternate jurors
in cases that are likely to be protracted. AS
soon as the regulartwelvej jurors were impan-
elled District Attorney Barnes requested
Judge Murphy to allow the impanelling OF
two alternates. The matter was ar

The alternate jurors are what may be
termed emergency men. They will have all
the privilege of regular iurymen. with the
exception of casting vote or deliberating

provision against possible delay in the case
which might be caused by the sickness or
death Of Juror. This will be the first time

THE BICYCLE AND THE DRINKING HABIT.

eff the wheel never does any other good
thing in its history, and II no other benefit
comes from its use, 1t wo1ld for one special
reason deserve the commentator and In
dorsement of every thinking person IN Gre
ation," said an eminent physician who has
made the bicycle and its use the study OF
wears. "My attention was first called to
one phase of the wheel by the experience OF
q young man who had been for some time
patient Of mine. He had been In the habit
OF taking glass Of liquor occasionally, and
I had warned him against allowing the
habit to grow, but whatever I said seemed
to make very little impression on his mind:
Finally I advised him TO buya wheel. had
an object in view, but gave him no hint OF
1t. He learned to ride one, and one day
asked him to 20 out with me for little run
in the country. When We got near one OF
the hotels in the suburbs he proposed a
drink, and I assented. took mineral water.
and he INDUCED In what he called good,
stiff drink to brace his nerves.
II said nothing, but made up my mind to
keep my eye on him rather sharply. We
rode for a mile or two, and although he
complained OF feeling somewhat rocky, he
got on tolerably we'll until we came to an
other tavern. He said he was all out OF gear
and wanted to stop again. went with him,
and the same order was repeated. Hall an
hour later, while riding along level road,
I observed that his wheel had taken on some
eccentric motions, and was going almost
anyway but the one he desired. He became
angry and fractious, and ended up by run
ming into stump by the roadside, and get
ting bad fall. His injuries were so serious
that he had to be taken home In carriage,
and was kept indoors for some time.
''When he got out again he came over to
see me. and the conversation turned on the
best way to become an expert wheelman.
1t was not little gratifying to me to have
him, of his own accord. make the remark
that as long as he rode wheel he should
never take liquor at wayside hotels. People
who have given some attention to the SUBJ
iect say that there is far less Intoxicating
drink taken by young men after they begin
to ride the wheel. They find that it Is not
conducive to clearness Of head or steadiness
OF hand. They cannot go out in hilarious
crowds and overindulge with any comfort
to themselves while wheeling. There Is too
much risk OF life and limb about 1t. The
bicycle and the grog shop are not good
friends, and as have said before, II the
wheel never does anything else, 1t Is worthy
of all praise because it is check on the
drinking habit"

stroyed their parents and drove them into
the grave. o rum, thou foe Of God, thou
despoiler of homes, thou recruiting officer
Of the pit I hate thee!
But my subject takes deeper tone, and
that is, that the unfortunate OF whom I
speak suffers from the loss of the soul.
It is about time that We have another wo-
mans crusade like that which swept through
Ohio ten or twelve years ago. With prayer
and song the women went into the grog-
geries, and whole neishborhoods, towns and
cities were redeemed by their Christian
heroics. Thirty women cleared out the rum
traffic from village OF one thousand inhab-
itants. If thirty women, surcharged Of the
Holy Ghost, could renoyate town of a
thousand, three thousand consecrated wo-
men, resolved to give themselves no peace
until this crime was extirpated from this city,
could in six months clear out three-fourths OF
the grog-shops of Brooklyn. II There be three
thousand women now in this city who will put
| their hands and their hearts to the work, !
will take the contract for driving out all
these moral nuisances from the city-at any
rate, three-fourths ofthem-in three months.
If, when that host Of three thousand con-
secrated women is marshaled, there be no
one to lead them, then, as minister OF tho
Most High God, will offer to take my
position at the front Of the host, and will
cry to them, "Come on, ye women of Christ,
with your songs and your prayerii! Some
OF you take the enemy's right wing ind some
! the left wing. Forward! The Lord OF Hosts
is with US; tho God Of Jacob is our refugel
Down With the dram shops!"

stony Creels,s { Ncitement.

Another batch of Stony Creek resi- dents appeared at the county com missioners' office yesterday to oppose the application of Charles Anerta for license to sell intoxicating liquors in that village. Ex-Senator Clark was again the attorney and Edmund Zacher represented the applicant. N. w. Kendall, president of the Quinnipiac Brewing company, was present at the hearing.
 There are four of those applications before the commissioners and the re- monstrants will oppose every one of them. Two-thirds of the electors of the village voted against license at the last town election, but the whole town of Branford, in which Stony Creek is situated, gave a majority for license. The village Is said to be greatly agitat- ed over the question, and if the licenses are granted an appeal will probably be taken to the superior court.
