AstonIshed Criminal Courts

The acquittal of the Marquis de Nayve
closes the final chapter of probably the
most romantic story that was ever told
in any one of tie criminal courts OF France.
All the material for the most extrava-
CANT drama was exhibited in this case.
the family secret, the extraordinary mar
riage, the threats OF the blackmailer, the
short sad life of the young martyr. Me-
naldo, his pathetic letters, his desire to
find out who he was. his escape from the
seminary where he was practically
prisoner, the tragedy on the rocks of the
bay OF Naples, the sudden death of each one
of the principal witnesses, the conspiracy
of the cures, their influence over the mar
Quise and her two sons, the strange re-
traction of their denunciations, and
finally the breaking down of the prosecu-
ton.
The marquis is now a free man, but.
guilty or innocent, his name will always be
linked with another that will be whispered
wherever he goes, and that name is Ne
naldo.

Those were ages when pan, had he been

Graded in fire. The great New Madrid
shake in 1S11-'12 continued for more than
three months. and most unusual phenofnena
were displayed, owing to the immense de-
posit of salt and loose material generally
that there overlies bedrock.
1t is a suspicious region, and doubtless

Over 2,4O0 square miles subsidized several
feet in 1911, and at least a hundred square
miles sank out of sight and lakes are
there instead.

Enpland's Debt.

The last parliamentary return in regard
to the national debt is extremely interest
ing. Tue gross liabilities Of the nation
for the year which ended on March 81 4,
1894, were f669, 104, ,O24 tS3 ,35O, 900, ,00O),
and these were reduced in the succeeding
twelve months by ES,943,4 AT, so that on
March 81, 1895, the liabilities stood at
1890, i i6O,6O7 (S3,30O, ,000,OOO). In 1886
the gross liza bilities of the nation were fS53,
473, 597 (S4, 265, OOO,O00).
The expenditures charged against the
public revenues on account of the national
debt, including both interest and repay
ment OF capital, has been rduced from f2S,-
666,153 in 1896 to f24,977 ,912 in 1895.
Over &c 900 900 $3.50, ,OOO, ,OOO) goes every
year to redeem capital.
Another fact remains to be noticed. The
nation possesses in the Suez canal shares
saiable asset valued at f24,0O0, 900
(S12O,OOO, ,0O0). The net liabilities of the
state, are. therefore, reduced by this amount.

QUAY AND CAMERON.

The pleasing statement is made that the
coolness which has existed for some time
between Quay nd Cameron, the Pennsyl-
vania Senators, has melted and been trans
formed into sublime fervency. OF course IL
NO GOODNESS existed the story cannot be
true, and there does not appear TO be the
least basis for a suspicion of frosty rela-
tions.
The remarka bic fight which Quay fought
TO triumphant finish against the hog
combine this year was Quay's own fight.
He did not desire that Cameron should
take hand in it at all. As it was, Quay's
opponents made capital from the statement
that the battle was being waged solely in
the interest of Cameron's reelection. The
understanding was clear that Cameron
should remain out of the State during the
contest. The pretty conclusions, therefore.
which are drawn from the compa nionship
OF the two Senators on a visit to Quay's
Indian River residence are merely harm
less fiction.
Vastly more significan mt Is a declaration
OF Mr.. Frank Willing Leach, Quay's most
intimate political lieutenant, that Phila-
delphia should have the Senatorship when
the change is made in 1897. Moreover, Mr..
Leach's declaration appears exclusively in
the columns of the Philadelphia Inquirer
Senator Quay's Philadelphia organ. Mr.
Leach would not have given such a state
ment to the public without his words were
Inspired. and if ii means anything at all it
means that Senator Cameron Will not at
tempt to succeed himself, for if Cameron
desires reelection Quay will surely support
him.

Few Florida oranges This Y ear.

Capt. j. A. Enslow, jr.. who ma kes reg
ular business tours through the State, has
just returned from the ''only" orange re-
gion OF Florida. He says the crop Will not
exceed sc, 900 boxes. all OF which are far
below the line OF Tampa and Barlow, the
centers of the trade in that commodity (or
luxury being Myers and Braidentown.
Nearly the entire crop has been sold on
the trees at $3.50 to S2.75 per box, and
several have been resold at profit be-
yond that basis. To deliver these at
Jacksonville 81 more must be added for
hauling, wrapping. boxing, and freight.
Capt. Enslowi knows of several lots sold
at $3.50 to $3.75, delivered at Jackson
vile.
He Is of the opinion that most OF this
crop will go North and West. He kno ws OF
several carload orders already executed
for Western points for November and De-
cember deliveries. There have been very
few transactions in January deliveries

But what is the general cause OF earth
quakes, and what is their physical interpre.
tation? What are recognized as the au-
thorties differ. Physical geology does not
appear to have advanced much beyond
what in mathematics would be recognized
as enumeration.
The earth's strata are labeled and are
known by names, but when II comes to ex-
planning the physical action that wrought
the deposition of these strata and what are
their superintendent conditions, there is
a considerable lack of homogencity in the

No Bluff and Bluster About the
Wonderful Growth of The Times.

Wonderful Growth of The Times.
Notwithstanding the desperate efforts
Of contemporary To stem the tide of
success into which it has been launched, The
TIMES CONTINUES TO GROW.
The Times circulation and The Times
advertising are marvels of the Newspaper
world Many of our wide-awake mercha nts
have placed their whole dependence upon
The Times, and in no instance have they
been disappointed.
No daily newspaper ever published in
the District OF Columbia So thoroughly
covered its territory as does The Times
with its morning and evening editions. 1t
is complete and Interesting record of each
day, with more than $4,000 living testi-
monials to It's merit as a newspaper and its
efficacy as an advertising medium.

Some idea Of this disturbance may be
formed when it is stated that the vertical
lift OF the wave was nearly twelve inches.
Between the city and the shock this deposit of
loose material acted as a buffer, and the
city was only hit as with suftgloves.
After an earthquake in South America
ground was raised from three to four feet
for 1 200 miles. In New Zealand, in s55.
large tract near Wellington was raised
over a yard, when an extensive ''fault''
was developed. The same thing occurred
a few years ago in Japan, one side OF
fault being uplifted from ten To twelve
feet over the other, leaving perpendicular
wall for hundreds of miles.

The more his driver belabured and cuaxed
and tried TO lead him the more he was de-
termined to remain there all night. The
crowd gathered, motortnen and conductors
threatened and swore and the poor driver
protested and tried tn lead his horse.
Finally enough men got about the team

them off the track, and traffic was re-
sumed.

A rather amusing incident happened at
the stall of a poultry dealer in Center
Market the other day.
An old ieilow whu shutters and, besides
this accomplishment, runs a boarding house
up in the northwest section of the city,
was the principal actor. This boarding
house, ur food hospital as one of the
star members of the ..hume circle"
characterizes 1t, is run for the money
there is in il. The boartiers are mostly
clerks from an uptown dry.goods estab-
lishment.
The suffering landlord went to market
Saturday night and stopped before the
proprietor.
''H-how many c-c-chickens have you?"
Twelve replied the dealer.
"Are they t-t-tough or t-telde-r"
.Some are tenderer than Others"
'Pick ME out six of the t-t-tough ones.
k-keep b-b-boarders."
The delighted dealer selected the ha rdest-
looking chicks in the coop.
Are t-they the t-t:toughest?"
'Yes."
'sT-t-then l will tt-take th-h-ese," said
the suffering boa rding-house keeper, as
he pointed out the six remaining chickens,
which the dealer had left in the coop.
On an old plantation down in Virginia
there is a mule that, for education, beats
a great many animals of so-called higher
intelligence. This prodigy belonged to an
old colored family, who swore by that mule.
The mule went by the name of Abe, and he
was born just about the time Abraham
Linocln was inaugurated President
Abe, as was said by the neighbors, knew
and could do everything. Among other
things he was SO lazy that he would not
walk out to the water trough il it looked
anything like rain. He would stick his
head out of the door of the barn and wait
for the rain to begin falling. He would
then open his mouth and catch the water
as it fell from the caves of the stable
That he could count nobody in the sur
rounding country doubted. He was used
togetting nine ears uf corn at feeding On
one occasion only eight were given him
and he Immediately set to work and
chewed the bottom OF the manger out look
ing for the missing ear.
Recently, however, he did what surprised
his owner more than anything else. The
field in which he was plowing with Abe
adjoined mill. Whenever the mill whistle
blew for 2 o'clock Abe noticed that every
body quit work and he was fed.
1t SO happened on this day that Abe was
in the middle of long row when the
whistle blew. He pricked up his ears
and stopped: the driver whipped him and
he started off with sad look in his eyes.
He worked few PAGES and then broke into
run. When he got to the end of the
row he stopped and absolutely refused to
bulge an inch. He was fed right there,
and would not allow himself to be hitchei
up again until the min whistle blew for
O. clock.

The most fvrcible exhibition was at Sum-
mervill' in an elliptical area twenty six
miles long and eighteen miles wide. OF this
area the major axis is a curve with its Gun
cave side toward Charleston and eighteen
miles northwes from that city.
Other earthquakes within $50 years have
been more destructive than this, but have
not spread over so wide an extent The in
tensity at Summerville was seven-tentns
greater than ut the seaboard city, and had
the focus been at this point the result would
have been most appalling.
Asit was, the condition that saved Charles
ton from total destruction Is that the land
is there all loose material, known as the
tertiary plain of the Atlantic, extending 100
miles in from the coast, and this, as in the
ease OF New Madrid In 1911, where the
drift is 25O feet deep. secured immunity
from the greatest disaster.

: 80, of the Pins.

In the managers Office in large whols-
sale houses there nearly always hangs a
map Of territory surrounding Chicago
which is stuck full of pins with red,
blue, green or yellow glass heads At
first glance there seems to be little
method in the madness with which the
pins are placed, but to the merchant
they are eloquent and tell exactly the
sort of goods or quantity sold in GER
tain territory. In laying out routes for
statesmen instructions are issued accord
ing to the tale told by the pins, and
when certain section remains sparsely
settled with the pins plan of campaign
is laid out and the drummers are sent
in to capture it. Circulars, posters, local
advertisements and every sort of COM
mercial gun is turned on the territory
until it capitulates. So general is the
use of these pins in wholesale houses
that firm makes q business of supply
ing them, with other Office fixtures. -
