HIGH TREASON.

Paris Greatly Excited Over the Disclosures
Following the Arrest of Captain Dreyfuss
The excitement over the spy mania
is still high in Paris, The case OF Cap
tain Dreyfus, who is awaiting court
martial, causes extraordinary comment
1t is said to be the intention of the gov
eminent to insist upon the extreme PEN
atty of death in case he is found guilty.
There is apparently good authority for
the statement that precise particulars
respecting the transport and concen-
tration Of the French forces in the
event of mobilization after a decla-
ration of war were placed in the
hands of agents of the triple ALI
ance The hours of the departure and
running of trains with troops on the
main hallway lines and also the branch
lines were set forth, together with de
tails of the places at which stores would
be procured en- route. 1t is asserted that
even the original documents were sup
piled to the intelligence department Of
the triple alliance at Berlin.
Another story relates that the disap.
pearance of some important paper from
pigeonhole at the war Office was fire..
quently noticed. After diligent search
the document would be found in the
precise place from which it had been
distracted The general staff also IL
said to have been aware that the Ger,
man war Office prided itself on its mi
tiation into many of the secrets of the
plan of mobilization. For long time
the French military authorities were
puzzled, but eventually succeeded in
unraveling the mystery. 1t will be
quite another thing to prove who has
been guilty of thsse acts of high treason

AND now the supreme court of the
territory has come out in q decision
declaring the spraying law to be in
valid, and some slothful orchard
owners may take advantage of the
ruling and fail to spray their fruit
trees, greatly TO the deIrlment OF our
fruit raising industry which is rapidly
forgeing ahead in the territory and
becoming an important revenue
bringer. 1t is not that spraying is not
needed, nor that the spraying has not
been conducted under proper regula-
tions that the court HOLDS, but that the
power conferred upon the fruit tree in
spectors has not been conferred
through the proper channels. The
law was held to be unconstitutional
for the reason that there was an illegal
delegation of legislative power to the
probate judge, county court and fruit
tree inspectors. Judge Merritt, in
passing upon the matter, held that the
legislature might properly have legis-
lated on the matters delegated to the
county court, probate judge and in
spectors, but that the delegation of
power to these officials Was illegal and
unconstitutional. 1t is to be hoped
that the good work OF spraying will not
be stopped or allowed to lag in the In
term that shall elapse between now
and the time when the legislature
shall enact new law on the matter,
OF the present ruling is reversed by
the supreme court of the United
State to which court the case that
brought about this ruling is to be ap-
pealed.

General Caasius M. C1ay's Wedding TO Ems
Fifteen-year-old Ward.

SSncrsl Caasius M. Clay's Wedding 60 ELS
Fifteen-year-old Ward.
The only witnesses to the marriage
were McClelland Richardson and DR..
Cassius Clay Smith, the latter physi-
clan of Richmond, KY. DR.. Smith re-
fused to say anything about the we'd
ding, explaining that he had promised
General Clay not to do SO.
1t was learned that the ceremony took
place in the sitting room. The bride
was not dressed as brides usually ara
| She wore plain dark dress, was bare
headed, her long black tresses hanging
in an almost disheveled mass down
her back. She wore no gloves, had no
orange blossoms and carried no brides
roses in her hand It was simple cere-
mony. The girl, who had remained sit
ting until General Clay and the magis-
trate arose, got up from the divan and
took her place beside her white headed
bridegroom 1t was a touching scene.
The man who had led admiring thou
sands in a crusade for human liberty.
who in his youth was perfect Apollo
Belvidere in appearance. if not Ma
poleon in the cause of abolition, stood
as meekly as little child, with an ex.
preston of unspeakable happiness upon
his time worn but still fresh and almost
youthful features, and by his side that
simple, trusting country girl, as shy a.
a gazelle, knowing as little of the great
world in which her venerable husband
had played so conspicuous part as the
most untutored daughter Of nature
The ceremony was very brief, and when
1t was over the bashful child went back
TO the kitchen, and General Clay and
his family physician sat talking by the
large open fireplace. in which glowed
no bushels of burning Goals.
And thus was celebrated one Of the
most remarkable weddings that ever
took place in the United States. Lou.
