Here is u criminal, the son of the
circuit judge of the district within
whose boundaries the crime was COM
mitted, who, it is alleged, shot to death
his victim without cause, yet his case
was stricken from the docket and he
allowed to go free without trial. Can't
some newspaper in the 22d judicial
circuit sift this remarkable case to the
bottom and see if it can't bring to light
something that would be interesting

The dismissal without trial of the
Indictment against Charles Wear, SON
of Judge Wear of the Twenty-third
Judicial Circuit, for murder, presents
a peculiar phase of the laws delay
and miscarriage of justice. The kill
ling of Ed Leal by young Wear at Pop
lar Bluff In 1892 possessed all the ele-
ments of unprovoked murder. Judge
Wear of course could not sit in judg-
ment on the trial of his own son, and a
special judge had to be elected for
that purpose by the bar. First Col.
ii. N. Philips was elected, who is
charged by Prosecuting Attorney Rem
fro of Butler county to have connived
at and permitted the release of young
Wear on $4,000 bond. and then re-
signed. After this the then Prosecu-
ting Attorney of Butler county, r. +.
Scott, entered into a written agree
ment that Thos. III. Mauldin should act
as special judge. A change of venue
was then ordered to Dunklin county.
where by the connivance of the special
judge with counsel for the defense,
according to Prosecuting Attorney
Renfro's statement, cOntinuances were
twice virtually forced on the State,
which at no time in the history of the
case asked for continuance, but con-
sented to continuance generally in
the first instance for the purpose of
trying to get the case out of the hands
of Judged Mauldin. which however
failed Of its purpose. The next, at
the January term for 1894. the case
was not called up. and all the cases on
the docket not reached or disposed of
at the close of the term were continued,
that against Wear appearing to be
among the number. Week before last
the case was called for trial In the Cir
cult Court of Dunklin county. Judge
Wear vacatiug and Judge Mauldin
taking the bench. The State seems to
have been taken nnawares, it's witness
es not being present. and Mr.. Renfro
stated that the only thing the State
could do was to continue it. This, ac-
cerding to the holding Of the defense.
was the third continuance without u
trial, and the attorneys for that side,
who had no doubt had this end in view,
promptly sprung section 1928 of the
Revised Statutes. which provides that
in such event, any one held to answe.
to an indictment under bond shall be
to be discharged, and prompt
ly filed motion to that effect, which
Judge Mauldin readily granted. And
thus man charged with wiilful mur-
der was turned loose without trial.
''The pretended reason" for his release,
says Mr.. Renfro, 'was a mere subter-
fuge. without foundation of law" and
be intimates that he will endeavor to
have young Wear reindicted.

PittSburg, Pa.
DEAR SIR: hereby acknowledge receipt of
check from your Company for So, 44S.40, in
settlement of my policy taken twenty years
ago. - ,
/ am more than satisfied with the results
shown, as l have not only had protection for
20 years, but i'll addition have really made
good investment of my money, as you have re-
turned to me all the money paid by me, to-
gether with 4.3 per cent interest Ny total
Won now return to me sd. 4IS.4O, or nearly half
as much again as l paid in, and this notwith-
standing the fact that l was not paying the
high price which an Endowment Policy would
cost.
You also offered me Paid-up Policy for
SO, 1856, or to pay me back 20 per cent of all
premiums paid, and in addition have my Paid
up Policy for So ,OOO all of which propositions
exceed my expectations.
Yours, very truly,
(Signed,)
JOHN L. KELLY.
The above statement shows the settlement
of twenty payment life policy with twenty
year tontine provisions, written in 1874 and
maturing in 1894, issued by the Equitable Life
Assurance Society. After indemnifying his
family against pecuniary loss, to the extent of
SIS, 900 by death for twenty years. the owner
draws in his life time 81 ,945, more than his in
surance cost him, being return to him of all
the money he paid for his insurance with inter-
est of nearly AZ per cent. per year.
No other company can show results as proti-
table as above on similar policies covering the
same period of time.
The Equitable issues policies on the lite of
ladies on the plans upon which gentlemen in
sure, and those who desire to provide for those
dependent upon them in the event of death,
and at the same time provide for an income in
later life, have an opportunity in company
where policies are as safe as government
bond and much more profitable.

MY LITTLE BO-PEEP.
BY S. B. M'MANUS.
My little Bo-peep is fast asleep,
And her head on my heart is lying;
l gently rock, and the old hall-cock
Strikes u knell of the day that's dying.
But what care how the hours go by,
Whether swiftly they go or creeping?
Not an hour could be but dear to me,
When my babe on my arm is sleeping.
Her little bare feet, with dimples sweet,
From the folds of her gown are peeping,
And each wee toe, like daisy in blow,
L caress as she lies a sleeping.
Her golden hair falls over the chair
Its treasures of beauty unfolding;
l press my lips to her tinger-tips
That so tightly my hand are holding.
Tick, took, tick, tock-you may wait, ole
clock.
II was foolish what was saying;
Let your seconds stay, your minutes play,
And bid your days go all a-Maying.
o Time, stand still-let me drink my fill
OF content, while my babe is sleeping;
As smooth her hair. my life looks fair,
And tomorrow may be weeping.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED.

There Is in the treasury OF Scranton
$500 and as the only work noticeable
TO the public Is the regular drawing
or salaries, the DEMOcRAT-STAR
thinks 1t is high time that the public
itself should act In the role OF bene-
6ciary. The absence Of pavements,
street lights and good sidewalks Is
shamefully apparent. Strangers no
ticing this condition rightfully pro-
nounce us as a benighted community
and the only important town In the
country lacking these essential feat
ures Of civilization. No town can
hope to prosper where such a state OF
things exist, and the sooner we get a
move on US the better for our material
interests. We cannot afford to occupy
the unenvlable position OF being 10
the real guard In these matters. A
concerted action among those most
interested would soon work wonders
In the direction noted and we hope
that at the next meeting of our Hon.
orable Board Of Mayor and Aldermen
steps will be taken looking to this end
in view. The revenue from privileges
and general taxation Is intended for
such improvements as VIC have sug-
and our town fathers owe 1t to
This community to do something at
once which would seem to justify
their appointment to their high and
position.
